At this moment, the friendship between them has become deeper in silence.

Then, Ying An spoke.

"Here, take it. We still have a few moments to pay our fees. Then we can go together to choose a suitable place to live as our new starting point."

When Xuan Zheng heard this, his heart suddenly tightened, and the idea of ​​buying a place to live circled in his mind.

"But it's not so easy to buy a place to live in Hancheng. This is definitely not something I can afford easily!"

Seeing this, the eldest brother sighed softly, with a firm tone in his voice.

"We have changed our plans and will no longer go to the Yuzong territory. Although this place is not a peaceful place, it has its own rules. At least the Xuqi Sect will not take direct action."

Xuan Zheng was stunned when he heard this, then a gleam of light flashed in his eyes. He seemed to understand the deep meaning of his elder brother and asked tentatively.

"Could it be that Big Brother has already made plans here, intending to make a big move?"

As he spoke, he couldn't help but feel excited.

Ying An nodded, with a determined glint in his eyes.

He looked around. Although this place was messy, every inch of land revealed an inexplicable order and rules.

It seems that there are infinite possibilities hidden in this chaos.

He turned to look at Xuan Zheng.

"Yes, perhaps there will be some opportunities here. If we go to the Yuzong territory, I'm afraid it will be another struggle."

When Xuan Zheng heard this, the doubts in his heart instantly dissipated, and were replaced by full enthusiasm.

He nodded in agreement without hesitation, then stretched out his body and rushed towards the city gate like a gust of wind.

He quickly paid all the expenses for the two of them for nearly ten days. When he came back, he said to Ying'an with an excited smile on his face.

"I'll arrange everything right away so we can take root here!"

Ying An smiled and nodded, and the two walked side by side, looking for a place to stay.

They all knew in their hearts that if they wanted to gain a foothold firmly in this land, it would be difficult for them to obtain the 30,000 Holy Dao Stones.

Ying'an and Xuanzheng stood on the edge of the outer city, looking at the endless eaves in the distance, their hearts filled with resentment and helplessness.

"It seems that we can only go to Tianwutai first."

Just then, an old man in a white robe slowly approached. The two men saw him, and a hint of surprise flashed in Xuan Zheng's eyes.

"you……!".

Chapter 1420: The Taoist Qin's Departure

The old man clasped his hands together and bowed slowly, his voice trembling.

"Sir, although I am old and frail, I have cultivated a small amount of strength throughout my life. I am willing to teach you everything I know, just to be able to follow you.

Even though the Holy Dao Stone is difficult to obtain, perhaps I can still offer a little help to you, young master."

Upon hearing this, Ying An curled up his lips into a faint smile, as if everything was under his control.

He gently raised his hand and helped Qin Daoren up.

"No need to do that. Let's go to Tianwutai now and we will have the capital soon."

Ran Xuanzheng was stunned watching from the side, and Qin Daoren shook his head.

"Sir, there's no need to do this. I have a small courtyard, which should be enough!"

Xuan Zheng had an incredible look on his face. He stared with his eyes wide open and pointed at the old man, unable to speak for a long time.

"You...you old man, suddenly appeared and said you want to fight with my eldest brother? Are you kidding me?!"

There was a mixture of surprise and caution in his tone, and he was obviously at a loss as to what to do with this sudden change.

Xuan Zheng's heart was filled with surprise and emotion. He had never expected that the Taoist Qin, who had entered the middle stage of the Dao Guarding Realm and had greatly improved his cultivation, would take the initiative to express his willingness to surrender.

The arrival of Qin Dao Ren not only means a significant improvement in their strength, but also makes them more confident in dealing with unexpected external events.

Moreover, when Taoist Qin returned from the City Lord's Mansion, he actually refused Yan Gang's recruitment. This was something he really didn't expect.

Now, Qin Dao Ren’s strength is no longer comparable to that of the past, but he resolutely chose to follow Ying An.

This decision also shocked Xuan Zheng, but of course it was also an affirmation of Ying'an's potential.

You know, under Ying An's guidance, it seemed as if overnight, Qin Dao Ren found the key to solve the practice problems and knots that had troubled him for many years.

For him, this kindness is like a second rebirth in life.

Not to mention Ying An's astonishing strength, which is simply breathtaking!

Xuan Zheng's face darkened instantly, as if dark clouds had covered the sun. He sighed helplessly, feeling resentful.

"Did I just spend all my Holy Dao Stones to waste them all?"

He muttered to himself, his voice revealing endless bitterness.

Seeing this, Taoist Qin shook his head slightly, and a gentle smile appeared on his face.

"Young friend Xuanzheng, there is no need to worry too much.

These Holy Stones are not useless. As long as you find a place to settle down, they can be used in the Chamber of Commerce run by City Lord Yangang himself.

There, you can exchange them for precious elixirs or weapons that enhance your own strength."

Ying An thought about it and then nodded, and Xuan Zheng's mood also improved.

"I see. This is quite convenient then."

Taoist Qin smiled gently, bowed slightly, and appeared very humble.

"Sir, please follow me to my residence. It might be a good place to stay temporarily."

Xuan Zheng's eyes flickered, and he was considering whether to go or not.

He glanced at Ying An beside him, who nodded slightly.

Then Xuan Zheng spoke.

"In that case, please lead the way!"

Then the two of them followed, not worrying at all about Taoist Qin's revenge.

However, on the way to his residence, Xuan Zheng's heart was still turbulent and he couldn't calm down for a long time.

He couldn't help but speak again and looked at Qin Dao Ren for confirmation.

"Old man, are you sure you want to follow my brother? This is no joke!"

Chapter 1421 Countermeasures

Upon hearing this, Taoist Qin smiled and nodded.

He glanced at Xuan Zheng with a smile in his eyes.

"You little guy, you are quite thoughtful."

"But please rest assured, once I, the Taoist Qin, have spoken, I cannot take it back."

Then, Xuan Zheng's gaze moved between Ying An and himself, his expression solemn.

"Do you know what kind of trouble we've gotten ourselves into?"

"Do you still want to follow us?"

Upon hearing this, Taoist Qin shook his head slightly, a faint smile appearing on the corner of his mouth, as if he already knew everything.

"No one who can come to this cold city is born with karma. Besides, I also have my own troubles. Young Master has accepted me, so it goes without saying that I cannot accept the troubles you have committed."

After hearing this, Xuan Zheng nodded and said.

"We killed a disciple of the Xuqi Sect. His name was Ouyang Fuzhan. He must be a disciple of a big shot in the sect. That's why they refused to give up."

Taoist Qin pondered for a moment, a look of understanding flashed in his eyes, and he was already aware of the complicated inside story.

He spoke slowly, a hint of laughter in his voice.

"Sir, the Ouyang Fuzhan you are talking about is nothing more than the illegitimate son of Cao Feng of the Xuqi Sect.

However, although Cao Feng can be considered a strong man in the middle stage of the Dao Guarding Realm, he is only the second elder of the outer sect of Xuqi Sect.

The sphere of influence is limited and not enough to cause much trouble."

After saying that, the two smiled at each other, and the huge rock in their hearts that was hanging because of the unknown pursuit finally slowly fell to the ground.

They now have a grasp of their opponent's strengths and have taken the first step to avert danger.

Next, as long as we make careful plans, we will be able to resolve these potential crises one by one.

"I thought I would meet some astonishing master, but I didn't expect him to be just an old fellow in the middle stage of the Dao Guarding Realm. It's really surprising and a little disappointing."

Xuan Zheng had a playful smile on his face.

Seeing this, Taoist Qin shook his head slightly, with a hint of approval in his eyes.

"This boy in front of me may not be as powerful and mysterious as you, but to be able to serve as your right-hand man, he must have something extraordinary."

"Perhaps, his true strength is still far from being revealed."

Qin Daoren pondered in his heart and became more and more curious about the two people and their strength.

"Sir, let's go. Let me take you to my residence in Hancheng. Although it's not as luxurious as the mansion, it's enough for us to rest."

Within the towering castle of the City Lord's Mansion, every brick and tile exudes unparalleled majesty. It is not only a symbol of power, but also a safe haven meticulously constructed by Yan Gang and his confidants. Here, secrets and conspiracies are intertwined, like another prosperous yet secretive city.

"Brother, according to the spies, after leaving your residence, Taoist Qin went straight to that unknown young man.

"This is quite strange," a man in black whispered, a hint of suspicion in his voice.

Upon hearing this, Yan Gang curled up his lips into a playful smile, with a deep light flashing in his eyes.

"Haha, it's really unexpected.

That boy, seemingly only at the peak of the Saint realm, is so charming that he makes Qin Daoist willing to follow him. There must be a secret that we haven't yet discovered. This boy is no ordinary person! "

The burly man on the side stood in silence, while the middle-aged man in white gently waved the feather fan in his hand and continued to analyze.

"Yes, brother, this is a serious matter.

Taoist Qin is in the middle stage of the Shoudao realm, although he has just broken through.

But he is clearly a rare strong man in Hancheng. To be able to make him humble and make friends with him, the young man must have some extraordinary qualities.

Perhaps we should re-examine this young man.”

"Should we go and test this kid's abilities? After all, his strength seems to be beyond our expectations."

A gleam of light flashed in Yan Gang's eyes, and he narrowed his eyes slightly, as if weighing something.

However, after thinking deeply for a while, he slowly shook his head.

"There's no need to rush to provoke him. The battle on the Tianwu Stage was already shocking enough, causing his reputation to spread like wildfire throughout the surrounding forces.

Soon, those who are interested in him will find him on their own, so why should we bother with this?"

He paused and continued, "Moreover, most of the people who can come to Hancheng are desperate criminals who have caused great trouble and are seeking refuge.

Since this guy has chosen us as his refuge, those who want to cause trouble for him will come here sooner or later.

By then, it won’t be too late for us to take action.”

Chapter 1422 Looking for a Place

Hearing Yan Gang's calm words, the middle-aged man in white not only had a smile flash in his eyes, but also a bit more admiration.
