The next day, Jiang Liu woke up late, either because the three-person landlord battle last night ended in a draw, or for some other reason.
After practicing for a while, Jiang Liu sat down at the table to think about how to deal with the Five Poisons Sect.
Jiang Liu thought it over and over and realized that the only way to completely eliminate the Five Poisons Sect was to eradicate them step by step. Since they knew where their stronghold was, he would force them all to come out.
Otherwise, if we were to go into their lair to wipe them out, we would find it riddled with traps and filled with poisonous gas, making it impossible to defend against.
After thinking it over, Jiang Liu calmed down and continued his cultivation.
The two women got up, washed up, and then went to look for Jiang Liu.
The two women watched Jiang Liu, who was fully focused on his cultivation and basking in the sunlight. They saw him calmly cultivating, and the increasingly ethereal and otherworldly aura emanating from him.
The two women were also captivated, staring intently at Jiang Liu, their hearts filled with tenderness.
Jiang Liu only stopped practicing after completing one cycle of the Saintly Sky Art, standing up and looking at the two women with a smile. He then flashed to their side.
"My Husband," Murong Yin called out shyly.
Feng Yue rolled her eyes at Jiang Liu but said nothing.
"Alright, Yin'er, Yue'er. Give the order to have more antidote pills and herbs prepared," Jiang Liu said.
"Prepare antidotes and anti-poison pills? Does my Husband intend to take action against the Five Poisons Sect?" Murong Yin asked.
Jiang Liu nodded and then explained his plan.
Feng Yue expressed her concern. "If we force this approach, won't many of us die?"
Jiang Liu nodded and said, "There will definitely be dead people. We can only try our best to avoid it. I plan to have the people from Exotic Weapon Valley take the lead, while our people will mainly be responsible for relaying information."
Feng Yue nodded and didn't say anything more.
Murong Yin, meanwhile, pondered where to procure the medicine. The required quantity was undoubtedly substantial, and while various suppliers had their own stock, the quantities were certainly limited.
To prepare these medicines properly, we definitely need to cooperate with the Medical Saint Pavilion, Medicine King Valley, and Physician Pavilion.
Jiang Liu looked at Murong Yin, who was deep in thought, and asked, "What's wrong? Is something bothering you?"
Murong Yin nodded and said, "Yes! Preparing so many medicines will take quite a bit of time."
Jiang Liu nodded understandingly and asked, "Approximately how long will it take?"
Murong Yin thought for a moment and said, "About three months!"
"Alright, then we'll launch another attack on the Five Poisons Sect three months from now. In the meantime, let Qin Bailian go and take over Xia County and Kan County."
Murong Yin looked at Jiang Liu, seemingly wanting to say something but unsure how to say it.
Looking at Murong Yin's expression, Jiang Liu slowly said, "Yin'er, are you saying that Murong Mo necessarily hand over Kan County?"
Murong Yin nodded and said, "Uncle Mo is currently strengthening his control over Kan County. It seems he wants to make Kan County his base. If you take Kan County back directly, I estimate he will disagree."
Jiang Liu chuckled and said, "He disagrees? Why would he disagree? He's already made enough money in Kan County, and he can handle Qin Bailian on his own."
Murong Yin could only sigh helplessly. She hoped that Murong Mo could see the situation clearly, otherwise, Jiang Liu might really get Qin Bailian to take drastic measures.
Although Murong Mo is Murong Aotian's illegitimate son, he is also Murong Aotian's most outstanding son. If he were to be killed by Qin Bailian like this, Murong Aotian would probably feel terrible.
It seems necessary to give Murong Aotian a heads-up beforehand, otherwise, a rift might develop between Murong Aotian and Jiang Liu.
As for asking Murong Yin to persuade Jiang Liu not to take back Kan County, Murong Yin had not considered it at all, because in her heart, Jiang Liu was more important than anything else, what did the death of Murong Mo matter?
Anyone who dares to stop Jiang Liu's grand plan, she can personally arrange for someone to kill him, even if that person is from the Murong Family.
Jiang Liu squeezed Murong Yin's small hand comfortingly, while Murong Yin smiled at Jiang Liu without saying anything more.
Feng Yue looked at Jiang Liu with a happy expression and said, "Husband, let's go out and have some fun today! We've been in Yuncheng for so long, and we haven't had a proper chance to explore the city."
Jiang Liu looked at Feng Yue's smiling face, amusedly reached out and flicked her nose with his finger, and said, "Alright! I'll show you around today, and we'll go to the Feng Family tomorrow."
Then Jiang Liu turned to Murong Yin and asked, "Yin'er, where is your grandfather?"
Murong Yin said with a smile, "Husband, don't worry. My grandfather is used to it. Before, when I was out and didn't have time to return to Wind City, he was home alone."
Jiang Liu nodded without saying anything, knowing in his heart that this situation would become the norm. Unless Murong Lie could live with them, things would remain the same.
However, Jiang Liu estimated that Murong Lie probably didn't want to, after all, Murong Lie was now Grandmaster and had a long time to live. He was probably preparing for things he wanted to do but couldn't do before.
Jiang Liu suppressed his thoughts and discussed with Murong Yin and Feng Yue where to go for fun later, since there were quite a few places to visit in Yun City.
While Jiang Liu was thinking about where to go for fun, the council hall of Exotic Weapon Valley in Yuncheng was filled with joy and excitement, with smiles on everyone's faces.
This morning, Qin Bailian announced new benefits and perks for Exotic Weapon Valley. Everyone in Exotic Weapon Valley was thinking that after months of hard work, they could finally see their rewards.
The elders of Exotic Weapon Valley and the heads of various mountain peaks all looked at Qin Bailian with satisfaction.
After all, these improvements in benefits and treatment will bring great progress to their disciples and younger generations, and more importantly, they will have more resources to use for advancement.
Looking at the jubilant crowd, Qin Bailian waved his hands and said, "Alright, this is just the beginning. There will be even greater rewards later."
Upon hearing that there was an even greater reward, the people of Exotic Weapon Valley's eyes lit up, and they asked Qin Bailian in unison, "Does Jiang Zhenchuan have an even bigger goal?"
Qin Bailian nodded and said, "Let's all have a good New Year first! We can talk about those things after the New Year."
Upon hearing this, the people of Exotic Weapon Valley dispersed. Now they had no complaints about following Jiang Liu. After all, it brought such great benefits, so what was there to complain about?
Qin Bailian watched the departing elders and leaders of various mountain factions, and sighed inwardly. After all, self-interest drives people. Qin Bailian knew that Exotic Weapon Valley was now completely on Jiang Liu's side, and it would be difficult for them to get off later.
Of course, Qin Bailian had no intention of stepping down. After all, following Jiang Liu was a tangible benefit, and even in the long run, Jiang Liu was worth following.
