"Okay, if you have anything to do, just ask me, and I won't get involved in this kind of thing like yours." Yanagawa said with a smile.
"I will definitely do it." Yun Shu nodded lightly.
…
The actions of the four major families came very quickly.
They sent a greeting card and came to visit the master of the Hall of Life and Death.
Naturally, Yun Shu did not meet him, and simply asked Lao Lei to send the four major families away.
There are also those from the City Lord's Mansion and the Fire Wolf Gang.
They came to recruit on behalf of their respective forces.
Yes, it's just solicitation.
They feel that this is a very viable force. Although it is not so powerful now, it already has the capital to develop. If it is allowed to develop like this, it may not necessarily have a place in this mausoleum city.
So they are very optimistic about this force.
But if it can't be used by them, it can only be destroyed.
It's solicitation now, but it might be something else later.
Their threats were also very strong, but Yun Shu remained unmoved and continued to expand his strength.
Now we can use war to support war, and we can use annexation to support these gangs.
There is no need for him to personally mobilize funds for the time being.
"Hall Master, today the four major families sent us greeting cards again. If we don't respond, they may really take action." Lao Lei looked worried.
Their expansion speed is not slow at all, and now the strength at the lowest level is almost comparable to any of the four major families.
However, the top strength may still be far behind.
Except for the hall master, there are almost no strong people in the Qi training period.
There are only two people recruited again, but these people are still a drop in the bucket in front of the four major families.
"Don't pay attention. They are still testing and won't take action." Yun Shu said, "Just continue to expand. If you really encounter obstacles, you can come to me at any time."
"yes!"
Yun Shu's words were equivalent to an imperial edict to Lao Lei.
If you tell him to go east, he will not go west.
And it is also unconditional blind obedience, which comes from the incomparable confidence in the strength of the hall master.
That kind of calm and gentle aura is almost extremely reassuring.
It's like nothing in the world can be difficult for him, giving people an extremely friendly power.
The third day.
Lao Lei stopped expanding.
Because there is no way to expand now, they have the remaining power to destroy Black Wind Village, allowing them to run all over the mausoleum city, but there is a limit. If they touch the interests of the four major families and the Fire Wolf Gang, then they will not Dare to attack on your own initiative.
Not to mention the interference from the City Lord's Mansion.
So now there are four major forces standing together, the City Lord's Mansion and the four major families. These two are the most deep-rooted forces in the city and are extremely powerful.
Next is the Fire Wolf Gang and the Hall of Life and Death.
The two are extremely powerful forces within Lingcheng, but they are both new.
Not to mention that it has only been less than half a month since the expansion of the Hall of Life and Death.
In a short period of time, it was able to reach such an extent.
It's enough to be on par with those established forces.
But the top combat power is only the hall master wearing the iron mask.
Someone has already described Yun Shu's face to them.
He is a young man. As for how young he is, even his facial features are described in extremely detail.
Furthermore, there is his origin. Although there are different opinions, since he came to Lingcheng, there have been no secrets. These are all open to the public.
There is also detailed information about his strength and the process of each attack, which is placed in front of the leaders of those forces.
These things can be dug out without much effort at all.
Yun Shu would not expect his whereabouts to be concealed.
However, there was no big idea.
Even if these people knew it, it wouldn't matter.
Isn’t there still nothing we can do about him?
Lao Lei came to him for help, "Lord, we have expanded to the limit of expansion. The next step is to face those powerful forces head-on. The remaining small forces, even if they are weak, can't compete with those powerful forces. Forces such as the four major families are inextricably linked."
"So now there is no way to go any further."
Yun Shu nodded gently, "Then let's wait a moment."
As for what to wait for, they didn't know.
In the next few days, a steady stream of people came to the Hall of Life and Death.
These people all have solemn expressions and look extremely difficult to mess with.
And many of them are vicious people, no less imposing than the bullies who crawl around in this mausoleum city.
And the evil spirit is overwhelming.
Everyone was also curious as to who these people were.
Lao Lei was called over.
"Master, please look for me." Lao Lei walked into the hall, still bowing.
"I have come to you for something. We have almost enough manpower now. You go and kill the Fire Wolf Gang. You can keep those gang members. No one from the top will be left." Yun Shu said in a calm voice, "These people will be Your helping hand."
Lao Lei looked a little surprised. He really didn't know the origins of these people and deserved to be entrusted with important tasks by the hall master.
"Hall Master, how strong are these people?"
"Show him." Yun Shu turned his head slightly and looked at the person behind him.
Immediately afterwards, a powerful momentum came out from several figures.
Yun Shu did not move at all, but Lao Lei was forced to kneel in front of the hall. He was extremely shocked that these people were all in the late stage of Qi training!
Even the worst one is almost able to break through to the later stage of Qi training.
With such a powerful lineup, it can be said that a force can be destroyed in the city in a matter of seconds, and it is even enough to dominate many cities.
What Lao Lei can be sure of now is that these people are definitely not from the Guchen Dynasty!
It is very likely that they are those extremely powerful casual cultivators.
It can even be said that he is a member of the Immortal Sect. It is just a secular dynasty, and there are many strong men in the Qi training period.
The lords of the dynasty may have the strength to reach the foundation building stage, but not so many of their subordinates can reach the late stage of Qi training.
In other words.
Even for those people in the palace, those Qi training periods put together may not be as much as what is in front of them.
He didn't ask what he shouldn't have asked.
The origins of these people are a mystery, and they are so powerful that they can completely sweep the mausoleum city.
This is an extremely powerful force, and its origin is mysterious. Now it comes to assist him, which makes him feel a little excited.
He has never thought about confronting the Fire Wolf Gang, or even the four major families.
Now the opportunity has arrived!
"My subordinates will definitely complete the mission!"
"Yes." Yun Shu nodded, "I'll give you three more days to take care of the four major families and the city lord's mansion."
The voice was calm, as if nothing had happened at all.
In this understatement of instructions, as if he ignored them, Lao Lei sighed, just this sentence, he didn't know how big a wave it would cause.
Lao Lei retreated, and the few casual cultivators behind him also bowed slightly, then turned and left.
These casual cultivators were found by Mu Qing, and they were all found exactly according to the records on the list.
In fact, there are no other requirements.
Just the spiritual stones and exercises are enough.
These people are equivalent to being hired by him. They are good as thugs. Now that these casual cultivators have joined their forces, let's run for them for the time being.
Yun Shu didn't explain too much, because there was no need to say anything more. Lao Lei naturally knew how to expand the gang.
In terms of strength, any one of these casual cultivators would have enough strength.
If so many people go out together, it will be enough to sweep the entire Lingcheng!
However, his target is not just Lingcheng.
Now it depends on when it can attract the attention of Jinding Sect.
Develop slowly first, don’t rush.
Expand the strength of the Life and Death Hall first.
Wait until the third day.
Yun Shu received the news.
The four major families, the City Lord's Mansion, and the Fire Wolf Gang have all been completely eliminated.
Lao Lei brought the city lord over.
Because of his special status, he was not killed directly, but the high-end combat power of the entire city lord's mansion had been swept away.
"He has already sent a summons to the royal city, and some ministers may come to inspect it soon. This is our negligence. We should have captured the city lord's palace early." Lao Lei looked regretful.
Lao Lei really hopes that the Hall of Life and Death can dominate the entire Lingcheng.
It's been done now.
Yet there are external crises.
People from the dynasty are sent down and they may arrive soon.
"Then why did you bring him here?" Yun Shu's voice was still indifferent, "Kill him, and then use the people he sends as our eyes and ears. I believe you are already very skilled at this. I don't care what means you use, I I just need you to help me achieve my goal."
Lao Lei felt cold in his heart, "Yes, I know!"
Yun Shu nodded lightly, "Let's take a rest during this period. Keep the people within the gang who were spies of other gangs as long as they can, clean out those who should be cleaned up, and then clean up the mausoleums." The city must be built like an iron barrel, and all the top and bottom must be our people.”
"This is not difficult." Lao Lei nodded.
"It's very difficult. You have to do it yourself to know." Yun Shu said.
Even to this day, Yun Shu has not let those casual cultivators take Lao Lei's place.
Lao Lei is also growing up bit by bit.
From being in charge of a small gang at the beginning, to now being in charge of a whole city.
Although it can't be said to be in perfect order, at least there was no trouble.
This proves that his leadership skills are still good, at least there is no problem in managing Lingcheng, and Yun Shu does not need to replace others.
Although those casual cultivators are said to be very strong, they are only suitable to be used as thugs, just like servants who are paid and then I do things for you.
At least for now, their sense of belonging is not that strong.
Far less useful than Lao Lei.
At least Laiken studied hard and knew that his current position was hard-earned.
So he will try his best to stabilize his position.
Yun Shu didn't care what method he used, as long as he could get his own things done, that was enough.
As for whether he is ruthless or cruel, whether he is acting in a positive way or not, it doesn't matter.
As long as he can continue to do what he told him, he only looks at the results. As long as there is a result, he can ignore everything Lao Lei has done.
Lao Lei left.
Yun Shu continued to think about what to do next.
Now the entire mausoleum city is under his control.
The power is also strong enough, and it can even be said that they are the only force in Lingcheng now.
Everything else is nothing.
Moreover, gangs of all sizes were annexed very quickly and beyond his expectation.
In more than half a month, Lingcheng has been controlled.
Yun Shu did not go to live in the city center, but was still at the headquarters of the Hall of Life and Death.
He is not a person who likes to move.
There is no difference now.
No matter where he is, Lingcheng belongs to him.
The next step was to expand outward, slowly spreading to the entire Guchen Dynasty, and then to the other four secular dynasties of Jinding Sect.
It will get harder and harder later on, because many places are not places of chaos.
It's not something that can spread if you have the strength.
It requires many factors, and when so many people gather, they have to eat. There aren’t many industries now, so it may be even more difficult.
But no matter how difficult it is, you have to do it.
At least those chaotic places must be firmly occupied first, and then spread to the interior of the dynasty.
Next comes the overt and covert struggle with the dynasty.
Yun Shu just thought about it briefly, and he would have to wait until later to talk about the rest.
After all, the conclusions drawn now are all imagined.
If you haven't experienced it, you won't think about the troubles behind it.
Yun Shu sat in the center.
It is easy to control a city, but it may not be so easy to win a dynasty.
But he also has ideas.
Wait until a few more days pass.
The Hall of Life and Death has completely controlled the entire city. Almost all the people from the Hall of Life and Death are from top to bottom, inside and outside.
In any case, Lao Lei did do this.
As for whether these people really work for the Hall of Life and Death, Lao Lei doesn't care, and neither does Yun Shu.
Lao Lei came over to report the progress.
"Today's Lingcheng is almost a piece of iron. We are all our people from top to bottom. Our people are stationed in every level. There are inn owners and boxers from martial arts halls. Maybe the entire Lingcheng is full of people. Within the city, one-tenth are members of the Life and Death Hall."
Yun Shu nodded slightly, "Well done."
"Next, I want you to continue to expand and take down all the surrounding cities of chaos. Do you have this idea?"
Lao Lei swallowed and said, "Hall Master, do we really want to make this big?"
"The current members of the Life and Death Hall may not have completely returned home. If it really wants to spread to the surrounding areas, and the dynasty sends troops to suppress it, most of them may change the direction of the situation."
Yun Shu chuckled softly, "If these cities are completely conquered, even if they are not impregnable, with those people helping you, what are you afraid of, the dynasty?"
"Don't be afraid!" Lao Lei's voice suddenly rose a little higher, "As long as the Hall Master is here, I'm not afraid of anyone!"
Yun Shu nodded, "Then do it. I will see the results within half a month."
"..."
…
Yun Shu's body gently opened his eyes.
He is still consolidating his realm now, even though his realm has reached a certain level.
"The dynasty is not in disarray. When it expands, it will definitely attract the attention of the Jinding Sect." Yun Shu murmured. "But we can stabilize the basic market first."
After all, what he wants to do does not necessarily require winning five secular dynasties.
He can take his time.
It's just that when it attracts the attention of Jinding Sect, it will need to further change its strategy.
He still has enough time to play slowly with Jindingmen.
A talisman flew in from outside and landed on his hand.
It was sent by Yanagawa. He didn't come to disturb Yun Shu, he just used this method of communication.
There are only a few words on it.
"The leader of the Wuji Immortal Sect is celebrating his 200th birthday. I invite you to come."
After Yun Shu took a look, he didn't pay too much attention.
He removed the talismans around him, and Yanagawa quickly left and came back.
"I won't disturb your practice, right?"
"No, I don't practice anymore." Yun Shu smiled and shook his head, "The realm I just broke through is still in the consolidation stage. The reason why I surrounded it with talismans is because I don't want to hear interference from outside."
"You don't want me to come in." Yanagawa smiled, "Will you go to the sect master's birthday?"
After a pause, he said, "Wuji Immortal Sect invites you by name."
Yun Shu said without any hesitation, "No, what are you going to do? Expect to be detained? Or encounter a sneak attack on the way?"
Yanagawa's face gradually became serious, "Well, we have to guard against their methods. If I invite you now, you may really have other thoughts, and you may want to do something under the guise of this 200th birthday. Shameful things.”
This is how the previous generation of leaders was deposed.
It is still weak in strength.
How many years have passed, and in order to suppress Wanjiange, they have done everything they can. On this 200th birthday, it is best not to go.
"I think so too." Yun Shu smiled. "Let's see if they will do anything next. If they don't invite me anymore, just arrange for someone to go there and give birthday gifts."
"I didn't expect that the gifts they sent before would be returned so soon." Yanagawa found it a bit funny.
"Don't let the disciples of your own sect deliver it. No matter whether you are strong or weak, it may not be good. You can buy things in Baibaozhai and let their people deliver them. This way, the super sect's appearance Yes, and it also seems that we are more serious and there will not be any big danger." Yun Shu said.
"If we go head-to-head with them now, we definitely won't be able to defeat them. We can only slowly make do with it."
Yanagawa nodded, he had the same idea.
It would be better for Yun Shu not to go. He only came to ask and even just issued a talisman. If he didn't go, he wouldn't go. It would be of no use if he went.
It's just a birthday party.
Previously they only sent disciples here, but this is still a change of head. Isn't it much more grand than your birthday?
Since you sent a disciple over, then we might as well not send any disciples at all. We just need to take out the spirit stones and let the people from Baibaozhai pass. That's it.
Reciprocity is a courtesy.
That's it.
"They called you by name and said they would invite you over. If you don't go, have you thought about what to say to them?" Yanagawa said half-jokingly after feeling relieved.
"What excuses can there be for them? If they come to raise an army to accuse us, then we have to see whether they are stronger or our mountain-protecting formation is stronger." Yun Shu said nonchalantly.
"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. How is your matter at the Hall of Life and Death going?"
"Now a new city has been opened, but there are still many things to do next. You are not needed for the time being, and there is no need to do it in the name of Wanjiange." Yun Shu shook his head.
"The city of the Guchen Dynasty, it seems you have some ideas about the Jinding Gate?" Yanagawa asked with a little curiosity.
Yun Shu nodded lightly, "It's still at the stage of an idea for now. As for whether it can be truly implemented, it may take a lot of effort."
"Okay." Yanagawa said.
"When they disrupt our ancient dynasty, they naturally want to retaliate in their own way. If we can grasp their lifeline, it will be beneficial to us."
Yun Shu nodded gently.
However, Senior Brother’s structure is still small.
What he wants to do is not only to take their lifeblood, but also to completely overturn them.
It's just that nothing has been accomplished now, and there is no need for him to boast about anything.
If you really get slapped in the face then, that would be bad.
As for the Wuji Immortal Sect.
Yun Shu never had any good ideas. This sect was both good and evil, and was automatically divided into two parts, one belonging to the righteous way and the other to the evil way.
They were originally a righteous sect, but ever since a founder walked out on his own path of demonic cultivation, the entire sect has become different.
It was also split into two cultivation systems.
Strangely, the two systems seem to integrate well and there has never been much of a schism.
Moreover, in Yunzhou, there was no such shouting and killing of demonic cultivators, so they were allowed to develop.
As for the birthday of the old leader.
This is completely a trap.
Why let him go?
Perhaps part of it comes from Da Zong's arrogance, but Yun Shu is more inclined to say that it is a trap. Although his current strength is not bad, it does not mean that he would be stupid to jump into it even if he sees that it is a trap.
And with the current strength, there is no need to do these things.
If they want to come to investigate, then fine, I can just detain your people here. If you don't come, then that's okay.
As long as it's on his home court, Yun Shu is not afraid of what they will do.
What he wants to do now is to earn spiritual stones.
By doing some layout, you can definitely seek the development of the sect and add some foundation to the sect.
And to be honest, there is really nothing to communicate between Wanjiange and the Inorganic Immortal Sect. The two are not forces on the same level at all.
