Bai Hongwen looked at Zhao Xuan, whose handsomeness and aura overwhelmed the entire audience, with a flash of intense jealousy in his eyes.
But he hid this jealousy well the next moment.
"City Lord Zhao, you are the winner now. I hope you can show the demeanor of a winner and a strong man..." Bai Hongwen took a step forward and said to Zhao Xuan.
"Sorry. I don't know you. Please introduce yourself and who are you?" Zhao Xuan interrupted Bai Hongwen without politeness.
Bai Hongwen was suddenly stunned.
But he wasn't too angry. He thought Zhao really didn't know his identity.
"Haha, it's my fault. I want City Lord Zhao to know that my name is Bai Hongwen, and I am a member of the Bai family of the Imperial Capital. In the past week or two, I brought people from the Imperial Capital to Yunhai City to contact the major survivor bases in Yunhai City... ..."
Bai Hongwen paused here.
He looked at Zhao Xuan and wanted to know if Zhao Xuan knew anything about the Bai family in the imperial capital.
What made him feel a little disappointed was that Zhao Xuan's expression did not change at all, as if he was not aware of the overwhelming power of the Bai family in the imperial capital.
"May I ask if City Lord Zhao has ever heard of the Bai family in the imperial capital before?" Bai Hongwen was a little unwilling to give up, and then asked Zhao Xuan.
"The Bai Family of the Imperial Capital? I only know that the Bai Family of the Imperial Capital was indeed a great family before the end of the world." Zhao Xuan said calmly.
In fact, Zhao Xuan knew in his previous life that the Bai family in the imperial capital was very powerful and great, and their fame spread throughout the post-apocalyptic land of China.
But so what? It will all come to nothing in the end.
When the last moment comes, only the strongest 100,000 people on the earth can escape the catastrophe in humiliation and survive, and everyone else and all other living creatures will die!
In this life, Zhao Xuan mainly wants to get rid of the soul shackles of alien civilization and try to save life on earth.
Moreover, Zhao Xuan has no plans to go to the Imperial Capital to develop in this life. Whether Bai Hongwen is a member of the Bai family of the Imperial Capital has no influence on him.
But it may not be said that there is no impact. After all, Bai Hongwen coveted his important general Qin Feng, and he himself also served as the leader of the coalition.
Objectively speaking, Bai Hongwen has offended Zhao Xuan, and he has offended him quite deeply.
But Zhao Xuan still wasn't prepared to pursue him.
Here, Zhao Xuan had to admit that he had misjudged Cheng Yugang after all, or that he had treated Cheng Yugang wrongly. After all, Cheng Yugang is not a pure and upright person like Lu Qiang, but has his own ideals and ambitions that are not willing to be inferior to others.
If he had seen through Cheng Yugang's character traits early on, Zhao Xuan would not have kept Cheng Yugang in Yunling City, but would have helped him establish another force. The relationship between the two can thus transform from a superior-subordinate relationship to a solid alliance. That way their brotherhood might still last.
But there are no what-ifs in the world. Under the influence of various factors, Cheng Yugang chose to leave Yunling City and follow the Bai family in the imperial capital. Zhao Xuan felt that he should be grateful to Bai Hongwen for solving the problem of Cheng Yugang's whereabouts. Otherwise, Cheng Yugang might be depressed for the rest of his life.
"So that City Lord Zhao can know that the Bai family is still developing very well after the end of the world, even better than before the end of the world." Bai Hongwen said seriously.
To ordinary people, they might think that Bai Hongwen was showing off, or warning Zhao Xuan not to embarrass him easily.
But Zhao Xuan knew that was not what he meant.
"So..." Zhao Xuan said calmly.
"Cheng Yugang, the brother of City Lord Zhao, is determined to follow the Bai family to a wider world and establish greater achievements. I wonder if City Lord Zhao is interested in this...?" Bai Hongwen said seriously.
Only then did Yan Chengfeng and others understand Bai Hongwen's purpose of speaking first.
"Mr. Bai, since you mentioned this matter candidly, I might as well say it directly. I have no objection to this. With Gangzi's talent, it is indeed a bit aggrieved here." Zhao Xuan said lightly.
Bai Hongwen's face suddenly relaxed.
He has seen Zhao Xuan's strength and knows that if he does not take the initiative to make this matter clear, there is a high possibility that not only will he not be able to take Cheng Yugang away, but Zhao Xuan will also use it to make trouble.
"The main reason why I'm so easy to talk to is that Gangzi is self-aware enough and didn't turn against Yunling City. But despite this, his matter is still not moral after all. For the sake of our previous brotherhood, I don't have to pursue it. He, but the brotherhood between me and him has been wiped out from now on. Please help Mr. Bai to convey this." Zhao Xuan said to Bai Hongwen freely.
"I will definitely tell you." Bai Hongwen promised quickly.
"Yunling City doesn't want those soldiers he took away. If Mr. Bai likes them, take them back to the imperial capital. If he doesn't like them, let them find their own way out. In short, don't go back to Yunling City again. Mr. Bai has other things. Do you want to tell me something?" Zhao Xuan continued.
"City Lord Zhao is so generous, and I admire him so much. If City Lord Zhao has time to come to the imperial capital, Bai will definitely offer City Lord Zhao a drink to apologize."
Bai Hongwen cupped his hands and said.
"Easy to say, easy to say." Zhao Xuan waved his hand and said.
Bai Hongwen's words were equivalent to a veiled apology, and the feud between the two parties was no longer discussed.
"Master Yan..."
Zhao Xuan looked at Yan Chengfeng and said hello but there was no follow-up.
"City Master Zhao, it is indeed Yan who is at fault this time. Yan apologizes to you. If City Master Zhao can avoid being held accountable, Yan will admit that he owes you once." Yan Chengfeng smiled bitterly and took the initiative to lower his position.
He believed that Zhao Xuan would not treat him excessively. Because although Zhao Xuan is much stronger than him now, he can't inflict a fatal blow on him.
And he still has an overwhelming advantage over anyone under Zhao Xuan.
If Zhao Xuan still wants to think about his subordinates, he must save face for him.
"Master Yan, please speak quickly. According to Master Yan, you owe Zhao a certain time." Zhao Xuan nodded immediately and agreed with Yan Chengfeng's statement.
In this way, Yan Chengfeng removed himself from the team attacking Yunling City this time by losing a little face and owing Zhao Xuan a big favor.
As for the huge casualties suffered by Yan Chengfeng's team, Yan Chengfeng knowingly did not mention it, and Zhao Xuan certainly would not mention it. Anyway, it’s not Yunling City that suffers.
Yunling City only had some walls broken and some people who were not determined were removed.
"you......"
Zhao Xuan looked at the other leaders of the forces and drawled his voice.
"City Lord Zhao, we admit our guilt this time and are willing to compensate Yunling City for its losses in order to seek Yunling City's forgiveness." Other leaders expressed their opinions one after another.
They all know that they and others do not have the backstage like Bai Hongwen and the force like Yan Chengfeng, so they cannot easily take them out.
Since Zhao Xuan did not intend to kill them all, they did not need to rise up to resist. They had to take the initiative to lower their arrogance in order to obtain leniency.
Only people whose brains have been kicked by a donkey dare to raise their hooves at this time.
Sure enough, Zhao Xuan was very satisfied with their attitude.
What Zhao Xuan wants is their surrender attitude.
