Linyuan City.
This city was originally just an ordinary city built on fertile land, but everything changed during the chaos more than two hundred years ago.
The ground on the east side of the city collapsed by more than three feet, and the underground rivers in all directions poured in, forming a huge lake at the collapsed location.
Linyuan City has become a city that is in close contact with the lake, and the city's location is one foot higher than the lake.
It is as if this city is a city built on the edge of the lake, full of otherworldly meaning.
Later, because the Zhao family was worried that the soil under the city would be washed away by the lake, they arranged for some earth-attribute monks to replace part of the soil below, so that harder stone became the base under the city.
This also resulted in the height difference between the lake and the city becoming much larger over the past two hundred years, and Linyuan City was renamed as a result.
"The ten important cities designated by the family leader will surround Chihu in the middle. If managed well, we will not be able to reach Chihu without breaking through these ten cities in the future."
Zhang Yunyuan looked at the city in front of him, "How do we get in?"
Zhang Qing smiled and said, "Of course I will enter in an open and honest manner, and I will also tell everyone that the Zhang family will become the new owners of this place."
After that, the majestic magic power spread out from Zhang Qing's body, covering more than a dozen carriages, and then dragged them all tens of meters into the sky.
More than a dozen carriages engraved with the Zhang family's flame logo appeared majestically in the sky above Linyuan City, attracting countless looks of fear or shock.
"Between heaven and earth, there is a prosperous place where mortals and monks coexist, and everyone has the opportunity to become an immortal."
"There are also bitter cold places, where the traces of immortality are extinct, and mortals strive for life without any chance of immortality."
"In the past, Yunmengze was neither good nor bad, but today, starting from today, starting from my Zhang family, Yunmengze's civilization will be completely changed, and mortals can also touch the magic."
"What we are going to create is a more prosperous Yunmengze!"
Zhang Qing's voice fell on more than a dozen carriages, and was then transmitted to the city below, but the latter could only vaguely hear a few words.
"Zuo Qiu Zhuo!"
After Zhang Qing finished speaking, a loud voice sounded from behind, "My subordinate is here!"
"I'll give you one day. By this time tomorrow, I want to know that this city already belongs to the Zhang family."
"Respect the family order!"
As he said that, the middle-aged monk and nine late-stage Qi practitioners jumped out of the carriage and looked at the sky tens of meters high. In order to ensure their transcendence, they gritted their teeth and affixed valuable light body charms on their bodies, and jumped a few times. Falling towards the city.
As for Zhang Qing, he did not move. He controlled everything with all his strength and suspended it in the sky, giving the mortals below a lingering shock.
"What the hell? Why do people from the Zhang family show up here with such fanfare?!"
Linyuan City is not without monks. There are a dozen or so casual cultivators hiding in every corner of the city. At this moment, looking at the Zhang family's carriage in the sky, they can't help but be frightened.
They wanted to escape from here, but they were afraid of attracting the attention of the foundation-building monks in the sky and did not dare to move.
"Can your mana last until tomorrow?"
In the carriage in the sky, Zhang Yunyuan looked with some surprise at Zhang Qing, whose face was calm and not pale at all.
"I am on the second level of foundation building, so there should be no problem."
Such an answer left Zhang Yunyuan speechless, and he could only sit in the corner alone and drink his own wine.
At the same time, he reached out and touched Qing Meng's head, "Go, go, kids can't drink this."
There was a large space inside the carriage where the three of them were sitting. Zhang Qing came to the window and looked into the distance. That was the "Yuan" of Linyuan City.
"It's hard to say whether Yun Mengze will become a mortal in the future and be able to easily contact monks, but in Linyuan City, I'm afraid he will."
"What do you think about turning this lake into a gathering place for monks? After all, the city is still a world where mortals live."
"You want to build a city?" Zhang Yunyuan shook his head, "It's too close to mortals. You have to know that not all monks are not interested in mortals, and not all of them have complete teachings like us."
"There are a lot of scum among the casual cultivators who take advantage of their lucky chance to do evil."
Zhang Qing looked at this clan brother with some surprise. It seemed that more than a year had passed, and Zhang Yunyuan was no longer the young weapon-refining boy who had not left the island in the middle of the lake.
However, he still did not agree with what the other party said.
"You also said that some monks like to use their power to bully mortals. So if we don't do this, can we change them?"
"Those things still happen, they just don't happen in front of you."
After hearing Zhang Qing's words, Zhang Yunyuan's expression froze, and the wine in his glass suddenly felt extremely sour and spicy.
"At least under our noses, these people's courage will shrink. They can't guarantee that everything will be peaceful, but they can be more suitable for mortals than you think, brother."
"There are many places we can't see. Because we can't see them, we can't control them. But it's not a problem to take care of our own feet."
"It really doesn't work. When the time comes, clan brother, you can take action and kill a few of them to make them understand the rules."
"Yunmengze has been changing since we arrived here. What it was like before, it's hard to say what the future will be like."
"What we do is also beneficial to the Yunmengze cultivation community. At least it avoids those casual cultivators running around and crossing long distances to the city, which adds a lot of danger in vain, doesn't it?"
Zhang Yunyuan took a deep breath, then looked at Zhang Qing, "You don't want to build a city, you want to use the power of the family to share the resources of the major cities in Yunmengze."
He could imagine that once the construction of the gathering place for monks here was completed and the casual cultivators around it began to slowly gather, which place would be most seriously damaged?
It can only be the major casual repair shops and cities led by Fengyue and Juncheng.
And seeing the movement here in Linyuan City, will the other nine important cities of the family follow suit? Then according to their guess on the way, the Shui family would do the same thing.
"Yun Mengze...is really going to become something that many people don't recognize."
For some reason, Zhang Yunyuan felt a little hopeful in his heart, expecting that Yun Mengze, who had remained unchanged for more than two hundred years, would become different.
He will be a witness and will be glad that he was born in this era in the future.
"What do you want to do? This is not an easy job. Many mortals in this city rely on the lake for their livelihood."
Zhang Qing smiled slightly, "Why should I help them build a suitable place?"
"You will cherish the fruits of your own efforts more, right?"
Zhang Yunyuan was shocked. He didn't expect that this clan brother would not even give out a stone.
After a long time, he couldn't help but sigh, "You are indeed insidious."
