Long River Eternity

Nian Zhongsheng instructed Zhan Tianqiong to return to Zhongzhou City to find a family to establish his authority.

At first, Zhan Tianqiong was still thinking about which family to target, but he never thought that someone would come up to him on their own initiative. This was really beyond his expectation.

At this moment, upon hearing that the Li family head had surrendered, Zhan Tianqiong pressed on, slowly saying, "I just heard that the Li family wants to move from Zhongzhou City to Xizhou. Could you please tell me more about it, head of the Li family?"

As the head of the Li family, although he was quite embarrassed in front of Zhan Tianqiong just now, Zhan Tianqiong had already retracted his domain at this moment, and his mind began to stir again.

He considered that even though Zhan Tianqiong had broken through to the Tianxuan Realm, Jingyan was also a powerful demon at the same level. Humans had always struggled to contend with demonic beasts at the same level. If Zhongzhou City were breached, the Li family's millennia-long legacy would be destroyed.

So, the head of the Li family mustered up his courage and said righteously: "We have discovered a large metal vein in Xizhou. Currently, Jiuzhou is short of mineral resources. The mining of this mine can greatly improve the current situation.

However, demonic beasts are rampant in Xizhou. To ensure the normal mining of the mineral veins, the Li family decided to relocate there and use the entire clan's strength to protect the mineral veins and obtain more minerals for humanity."

After listening to this, Zhan Tianqiong had a smile on his face, his eyes fell quietly on the head of the Li family, and he remained silent.

The Li family's head felt terrified by Zhan Tianqiong's stare, and a drop of cold sweat rolled down his forehead. The others were also anxiously awaiting Zhan Tianqiong's decision, feeling uneasy, completely unsure of what he would decide.

Unexpectedly, Zhan Tianqiong smiled calmly and agreed without hesitation. He then looked around the conference room and asked, "No problem. Are there any other families that want to move out of Zhongzhou City?"

Everyone else was stunned when they heard this. They couldn't figure out what Zhan Tianqiong was thinking that he would let the Li family leave so easily.

At this time, the Zhao family head said, "Well, actually, the Zhao family has discovered an oil field in the northwest region, and we also need to move our headquarters there to protect it."

Zhan Tianqiong looked at the Zhao family head, his eyes narrowed slightly, and then he also agreed: "Okay." Then he cast his gaze on the other family heads and asked coldly: "Patriarch Liu, Patriarch Zhu, Patriarch Yin, where are you three?"

The three patriarchs exchanged glances, and then the Yin family patriarch spoke: "We are determined to defend Zhongzhou City and will never evacuate."

"Master Yin! You make it sound as if our two families are deserting the battlefield. We are going there to mine resources for humanity! When the Demon Alliance invades, we will do our best to help!" Master Zhao was dissatisfied when he heard this and said loudly.

The head of the Yin family glanced at the head of the Zhao family, snorted coldly, and ignored him completely.

Seeing Patriarch Yin's attitude, Patriarch Zhao was about to attack again, but was stopped by Zhan Tianqiong: "Alright! I will allow both families to leave, but there are a few conditions.

First, the relocation must be completed within two days and must not affect the deployment tasks in the city;

Secondly, let me make it clear that Zhongzhou City is not a place where you can come and go as you please. Once you move out, it will be very difficult to move back in the future.

Third, for this Demon Alliance invasion, each of your two families sent five mid-level Tianji Realm masters and ten early-level Tianji Realm masters;

Fourthly, whether it's minerals or oil you dig up, you must enjoy a 30% discount when purchasing from Tianshu Pavilion."

"This... the first three conditions are easy to agree on, but isn't this 30% discount a bit too... wasn't it always 10% off in the past?" Patriarch Li said with an embarrassed look on his face.

"I'm not negotiating with you. Don't bargain with me." Zhan Tianqiong said coldly with a stern look.

Patriarch Li and Patriarch Zhao exchanged a glance and then responded, "We need to discuss this. Please wait a moment."

"Ten minutes." Zhan Tianqiong said.

Immediately afterwards, the two family heads hurriedly left the meeting room.

Seeing the two leave, the head of the Qian family, a white-haired old man in a Zhongshan suit, said with a worried look on his face, "Minister Zhan, it's not appropriate to let the two families leave Zhongzhou City like this, right?

Although the Li and Zhao families have been driven by profit in recent years, their family heritage is quite profound. If they leave, the security of Zhongzhou City may be seriously endangered."

Zhan Tianqiong smiled confidently and said soothingly, "Don't worry, Master Qian. Zhongzhou City is now full of powerful people and talented people. Moreover, the hidden dangers of monsters outside Zhongzhou City have been eliminated. There is no need to worry about safety anymore."

"Are you referring to the recently renowned descendant of the Divine Envoy and those Tianji Realm demonic beasts that have suddenly appeared in the wild?" asked the Qian Family Head. "From what I understand, that young man has indeed performed exceptionally well and has a group of exceptionally gifted companions. It seems he has also recruited those demonic beasts. However, he hasn't yet achieved significant influence. In terms of foundation, he's nowhere near the level of the two major families, right?"

Zhan Tianqiong smiled and said, "Of course there are more than just them. You will know in a few days. Besides, there is now a method to break through the Tianxuan realm. In the next period of time, there will definitely be new Tianxuan realm masters born.

Not only Zhongzhou City, but the entire Jiuzhou will be more prosperous than before. Families like the Li and Zhao families are just occupying the toilet in Zhongzhou City without doing anything. It would be better to get rid of them as soon as possible."

Seeing that Zhan Tianqiong looked confident, the head of the Qian family said no more.

At this moment, the two patriarchs, Li and Zhao, pushed open the door and walked in. Patriarch Li, with a resolute expression, said, "We accept your offer. However, the method to break through the Tianxuan realm..."

Zhan Tianqiong heard this without turning his head. He said calmly, "Relax. This breakthrough method concerns the cultivation path of all mankind. I will not hide anything from you and will definitely make it public."

After hearing this, the two of them finally felt relieved. Then, Patriarch Li said, "Then we will go back and prepare for the relocation. Goodbye!"

After saying that, the two of them turned around and left the meeting room without hesitation.

Zhan Tianqiong did not stop the two and let them leave.

Only after the sound of their footsteps faded completely did Zhan Tianqiong continue, "As for this breakthrough method, it is closely connected to each person's unique skills. Only by thoroughly understanding their own unique skills and forming a unique understanding can one break through to the Tianxuan Realm.

I myself only recently came to this realization, and have yet to systematically sort it out. Once I have it sorted out and clarified, I will make it public."

Upon hearing this, all the family heads nodded in understanding.

"If the family heads have no more questions, you can leave first. Two months later, I will leave it to you. By then, other families will also send strong men to support us, and this victory will definitely belong to us." Zhan Tianqiong said in a low voice.

So, after the four family heads said goodbye to Zhan Tianqiong, they left the meeting room, leaving only the six ministers of Tianshu Pavilion.

Zhan Tianqiong said in a deep voice, "Pavilion Master Nian will be returning soon in the next few days. You should all prepare the work you need to report."

When the ministers heard this, they were all extremely surprised.

"No wonder you were so confident just now. In this case, what do you have to worry about this invasion?" Only at this moment did Luo Siwei, the Minister of Science and Technology, suddenly understand why Zhan Tianqiong was so confident before.

"That's right. So many years have passed. Pavilion Master Nian must have reached the late Tianxuan Realm. I heard that Jing Yan is only in the early Tianxuan Realm. He is definitely not a match for the Pavilion Master." Minister of Infrastructure Lou Poxiao said with a smile.

"The Pavilion Master's return coincides with the invasion of the Demon Alliance, which will probably reshuffle the power structure of Zhongzhou City.

We've worked together for many years, so I'm giving you a heads up: During this period, be alert and don't stand on the wrong side." Zhan Tianqiong said seriously.
