It will take a while.

"Everyone, follow me."

After the guard returned with the report, he waved to the Black Mountain Sect members and led the way without turning his head.

rear.

"master."

The disciples of the Black Mountain Sect looked at the leading old man, who was none other than the sect leader, Hei Gan.

"Don't talk, just study quietly and watch carefully!"

Hei Gan grinned and followed after him, head held high and chest puffed out.

See this.

The disciples exchanged a silent glance.

Judging from the master's expression, he's planning to put in some effort!

soon.

We arrived at the outside of a quaint, old-fashioned courtyard.

"Go wait in the courtyard. The Prefect is busy with official duties, but he will come out to see you when he has time."

The guard gave a brief instruction, then turned and left.

Hei Gan smiled faintly, glanced back at his disciples, and went inside first.

"My disciples, let your master show you something first."

Upon hearing this, the disciples nodded in understanding and then skillfully closed the courtyard gate.

Once the door closed.

"Ouch!"

Black Gan made his move at zero frames and let out a mournful howl.

"Your Excellency, it is Hei Gan who is incompetent and ineffective in his duties. I have come here to ask for punishment!"

As he spoke, Hei Gan fell to the ground with a thud. His thin frame was so hard that he rolled over several times and ended up in the middle of the yard.

Doorway.

A new apprentice stared at the scene in astonishment.

"Master, he..."

Before he could speak, the other disciples all shook their heads.

"Don't make a sound and disturb the atmosphere created by the master."

One of the disciples lowered his voice and chuckled.

"Our Black Mountain Sect has always been steady, relying on Master's mastery of mind manipulation. With Master crying, no matter what happens, if we have done something right, we will definitely gain more benefits."

"If it has happened, then the key is to make a preemptive move, to show your face first, and cry loudly at an old age."

The disciple raised his head, his face full of pride.

"People are all made of flesh and blood. I don't believe the other party would dare to hit my master again."

The junior brother opened his mouth upon hearing this, and then saw that his senior brothers were full of emotion.

"This is the manipulation of the upper echelons."

"That's right, that's right, Master played hard, I didn't expect him to roll over directly."

"When it comes to stability, you still have to go with the master."

……

In front.

Hei Gan lay on the ground, his old age was terrible, and he was howling terribly.

"Oh dear, I am ashamed, I am guilty, I blame myself, ah...ga!"

Suddenly, there was a sharp crack.

It was as if they were about to pull through.

At this time.

The door in front was kicked open.

It was as if the person inside had finally reached their breaking point and walked out with a black line on their forehead.

"You old rascal, are you here to mourn me first thing in the morning?!"

on the ground.

Hei Gan, who was convulsing, suddenly knelt down properly, as if he had just been told he was alright.

"Hei Gan greets Prefect Chen. May Prefect Chen enjoy boundless blessings and peace!"

The man was about fifty years old, with a fleshy face, and dressed in fine clothes.

It was none other than Chen Sihai, the prefect of Longchuan County!

"Hmph, wishing you ten thousand blessings and peace, that sounds nice."

Chen Sihai strode to the steps and plopped down on them.

He appears casual and poised.

But as soon as Hei Gan looked up, he was met with a meaningful gaze from him.

"Uh……"

Hei Gan immediately lowered his head, and since he was already kneeling upright, his head was now practically touching the ground.

"Hehehe."

Chen Sihai laughed immediately upon seeing this and patted his large belly.

"Tell me, what happened."

"If things go wrong with Lie Yun's matter, and you still can't handle it properly even with my personal support, then the entire Black Mountain Sect can be sent to perform corvée labor."

Upon hearing this, Hei Gan immediately shouted at the top of his lungs.

With her butt sticking out, she shuffled all the way to Chen Sihai.

"Your Excellency, I'm innocent! I arrested Lie Yun and the others, but who would have thought, who would have thought..."

Upon hearing this, Chen Sihai's eyes suddenly turned as cold as ice.

"Who would have thought?"

Hei Gan seemed to have been waiting for these words, and hurriedly raised his head, saying, "It was the Lieyang Sect that took Lie Yun and the others away!!"

Chen Sihai was startled by the sound.

I haven't heard the name "Liyang Sect" for at least four years.

"The Blazing Sun Sect..."

Chen Sihai looked at Hei Gan suspiciously, his cold gaze suggesting he was already plotting how to dismantle Hei Gan.

"If I remember correctly, there's only one good-for-nothing left. Do you think he can take Lie Yun and the others away from you?"

Hei Gan hurriedly raised his head, wiping away his snot and tears, "Your Excellency, everything I said is true, and I have absolutely not lied to you."

As he spoke, Hei Gan took out a stack of letters, all of which were correspondence between people in the martial arts world.

Chen Sihai took a look and his expression suddenly turned serious.

"Du Hui, along with Ji Wushuang and Jade-Faced Fox, stormed the Blazing Sun Sect..."

"Ji Wushuang, the Jade-Faced Fox, fled in defeat, and Du Hui was killed in battle..."

"Lu Yu, the sect leader of the Blazing Sun Sect, is known as the Iron Wall Immortal, impervious to water and fire, and invulnerable to swords and spears..."

Chen Sihai read the contents of the document one by one.

He stood up after he finished reading.

"Someone is coming."

The courtyard gate was pushed open.

A man ran over.

Chen Sihai threw the letters at him, and then he ran out again.

Hei Gan lay on the ground, waiting obediently.

Less than half an hour.

The man retrieved some more letters.

"The news was actually true!"

Chen Sihai's eyes widened suddenly, and a cryptic smile appeared on his fleshy face.

The Blazing Sun Sect.

He and Lu Chen had dealt with each other quite a bit in the past.

As for Lu Yu...

He thought of the snotty kid who had once knelt before him, weeping bitterly.

In order to protect the sect's territory, they obediently offered up six spirit stone mines.

My family's wealth has increased many times over the past few years.

Therefore, what he fears most is that someone will pay attention to the Blazing Sun Sect and discover the spirit stone mine...

"Is this kid getting restless?"

A sharp glint flashed in Chen Sihai's eyes.

He simply did not believe that Lu Yu could kill Du Hui, especially with the help of Ji Wushuang.

He glanced at the so-called "information from the martial arts world" and threw it on the ground.

The only worry is that the matter of the spirit stone mine will be leaked.

Think of this.

Chen Sihai's eyes hardened, and he had already decided to kill.

Just at this time.

Hei Gan seemed to have revealed his plan, raising his head and saying.

"Your Excellency, the powerful members of the Blazing Sun Sect have fled, and the sect's territory should have been reclaimed long ago. Now, they still dare to lawlessly seize people. In my opinion, their intentions as bandits are obvious to everyone!"

Chen Sihai snapped out of his thoughts and glanced at Hei Gan.

"How about I hand over the sect's headquarters to you?"

Upon hearing this, Hei Gan's face lit up with a smile, and he immediately grabbed Chen Sihai's leg.

"Do you really mean what your Excellency said?"

"You really dare to take it?"

Chen Sihai immediately laughed, as if he were looking at an old dog.

Hei Gan pretended not to notice the contempt in Chen Sihai's eyes and licked his lips as he plotted.

"I'll take it all from the Prefect. You hand over the territory of the Blazing Sun Sect to me, and I'll give you 30% more of the spirit stone mines that my Black Mountain Sect already owns. I'll also take back all the spirit stone mines around the Blazing Sun Sect. That's all I'll pay..."

Hei Gan stretched out his hand and made a seven-character gesture towards Chen Sihai.

Hei Gan had already been planning these things ever since he captured Xu Dashan and others.

Now we're just waiting for Chen Sihai to nod in agreement.

Looking at Hei Gan's shrewd and mercenary face, Chen Sihai curled the corners of his mouth.

This old dog, though annoying to look at, is truly meticulous in getting things done.

As for the Lieyang Sect...

"If that kid were to stay put, we would let it go, but since he dares to cause trouble, the sect should take him back."

Chen Sihai nodded, got up, and walked towards the door.

"Go back now. I'll personally go to the Blazing Sun Sect!"
