The government was sending out wives, and I ended up with a princess from the previous dynasty!

After Yi Qianxiao's explanation, Jia Daoshi and the other two finally understood the origin of the Twelve Towers of Wind and Waves.

Legend has it that a long, long time ago...

In the southern barbarian region of the Great Jing, a giant shooting star fell from the sky!

At that time, two great martial arts masters, Xuan Yue and Bei Huang, joined forces to try to stop this flying star from falling!

But in the end, it still failed. The huge meteorite fell on the harbor town of Liyue Harbor, causing huge casualties!

Moreover, after this celestial meteor fell into the sea, it emitted a strange power. Anyone who entered this area would be smashed to pieces and die, leaving only a pair of eyeballs behind!

Over time, that sea area became known as the "Hidden Pearl of the Sea" by people in the martial arts world!

As for the place where the extraterrestrial star fell, the area within a hundred miles was almost devoid of life!

Left with no other choice, Xuan Yue and Bei Huang joined forces with the three patriarchs of the Kumu Sect to build a forbidden city wall stretching for hundreds of miles, surrounding this Dead Sea with its special death energy, and setting up the Haotian Divine Net to completely cover the area!

Finally, the Twelve Towers of Wind and Waves were established to guard outside the city walls!

Firstly, it was to study the mysterious energy brought by the celestial meteors, and secondly, it was to prevent martial arts practitioners from going to investigate.

As for the Twelve Towers of Wind and Waves, they are the Sword Tower, the Military Tower, the Medical Tower, the Mysterious Tower, the Daoist Tower, the Morning Star Tower, the Snow-Treading Tower, the Yellow-Clad Tower, the Red-Clad Tower, the Black-Clad Tower, the Blue-Clad Tower, and the Purple-Clad Tower.

The twelfth floor is headed by the Sword Tower.

The owner of the Sword Tower was named Li Mingju.

The Twelve Towers of Wind and Waves have always remained aloof from the struggles of the martial world, so their sudden appearance at Mantuo Manor is truly surprising.

After listening to Yi Qianxiao's words, Jia Daoshi gained a lot of insight.

"So, this Twelve Towers of Wind and Waves is quite formidable."

"To be on par with our Xuanhua brand, of course it's impressive."

Yi Qianxiao puffed out her chest and said.

"Look at you, so vain."

Just as Jia Daoshi and his three companions were speaking, the battle situation in the woods took a new turn.

Almost all of the dozens of people who broke in were killed.

Only a few of the ringleaders managed to escape thanks to their superior skills!

After all, as long as one has profound internal strength and superb martial arts skills, one can charge forward despite enemy fire.

Among them were Mr. Poison, the burly man carrying a large iron spear, and the silver-haired old woman from the Drywood Sect.

At this moment, the few survivors appeared on the riverbank. Their clothes were torn in many places, their hair was disheveled, and their faces were covered in blood. It was unclear whether the blood was their own or that of their companions. In any case, they were in a very sorry state!

Utterly disheveled!

"This is outrageous! If I weren't a master of poisons, I wouldn't be out of here today! This manor is too sinister!" Mr. Poison poured a bottle of pills into his mouth and cursed.

As for the burly man carrying the iron spear and Miss Weng from the Drywood Sect, they turned back to look at the manor still burning behind them, their eyes showing a solemn expression.

"Miss Weng, this is no place to stay for long. I shall take my leave!" After saying this, the burly man with the iron spear channeled his inner strength and used his Iron Legs to fly across the water, quickly disappearing without a trace.

Miss Weng also had a gloomy face and quickly retreated!

Mr. Poison was equally frustrated.

There were nearly fifty people when we went in.

Only the three of them came out!

The losses are considerable!

Moreover, these are just some basic mechanisms; they haven't even deployed the mechanical snakes yet!

If some advanced mechanisms were added, the entire manor would become a den of dragons and tigers!

"Hmph! A bunch of useless trash! You've wasted my feelings!"

The Holy Maiden of the Sun Moon Cult sat on the top of a large tree, her eyes filled with disdain.

"Looks like relying on these newbies is hopeless. If I want emotional value, I'll have to do it myself!"

……

Seeing that there was no more excitement to be had, Jia Daoshi closed the window.

"My lord, aren't you going out to take a look?" Di Qinglin asked.

"No need, leave these things to Jia Bing and Butler Sun. We've rested enough, so let's go back to sleep."

"Pfft..."

After blowing out the oil lamp, Jia Daoshi embraced his beautiful wife and crawled into bed.

Time passed slowly.

Soon, it was dawn.

Jia Daoshi opened his eyes, stretched his limbs, moved the several snow-white arms off his chest, and then got up happily, making his way to the woods by the training ground!

Last night, quite a few martial arts masters perished in this forest.

"Patriarch! Patriarch! We've made a fortune again! A huge fortune!"

Just as we reached the edge of the woods, Jia Bing came running over excitedly.

Looking at Jia Bing's flushed face, Jia Daoshi was both amused and exasperated.

It seems he was so excited he didn't sleep all night!

"How much did you earn?" Jia Daoshi asked with a smile.

"Quite a few! These people are all wealthy. Although they can't compare to the Shadow Gate group, they still have over eight thousand taels of silver in total!"

"Besides these, there are also some gold and silver jewelry, jade pendants, kung fu manuals and the like, which I've packed all together!"

As Jia Bing spoke, he picked up a large bundle from behind him.

"Master, these people are here to give us money, they're like living bodhisattvas! We should have more of them come in the future!"

"It would be best if you came every day!"

Looking at the heavy bundle, Jia Bing's lips curled up into a smile that was harder to suppress than an AK.

What is a windfall? Isn't this it?

"Hmm, a江湖 (jianghu) man carrying so much money, gold, silver, and jewelry, he must be quite the thief. Good job killing him this time." Jia Daoshi nodded.

Since these people dared to break into his manor in the middle of the night, they would also break into other people's manors; none of them are good people.

Ill-gotten gains can be used with peace of mind.

“Yes! Good for them! I also think these people deserved to die!” Jia Bing nodded repeatedly.

"Here, take this thousand taels. You worked hard last night." Jia Daoshi pulled out a stack of silver notes and handed them to Jia Bing.

It was thanks to Jia Bing's hard work that he was able to enjoy his carefree life last night.

Nature deserves to be appreciated!

"Master, I can't take any more of this. You gave me enough last time! It's all part of my duty!" This time, Jia Bing refused to take any more no matter what!

“Alright then.” Jia Daoshi nodded.

Now that Jia Bing is working for me, of course she won't lack money.

"Money or not, it really doesn't matter. Pick out a few martial arts manuals to read; perhaps they'll give you some inspiration in martial arts." Jia Daoshi nodded. "Also, were any of those people from yesterday alive?"

Jia Bing nodded and said, "There were indeed a few survivors, but I've already severed their tendons and tied them up, then dumped them in the woods. As for the dead, they've already been burned. I think the sudden arrival of so many people must have a purpose, so I didn't kill them."

"Good, well done." Jia Daoshi nodded. This Jia Bing, although he looks like a rough man, is actually very thoughtful and intelligent.
