Vast Righteous Sect Arrives in Yun Province
When Jiang Liu returned to Yunzhou, it was almost the end of March.
Jiang Liu had only been at his home in Yunzhou for a few days when he received a message from the Listening Wind Pavilion saying that the Vast Righteous Sect was about to enter the territory of Xia County in Yunzhou.
The Listening Wind Pavilion now has a very tight network of informants throughout Yunzhou, especially in the counties bordering several other states, which are of paramount importance.
After all, Jiang Liu had repeatedly instructed Murong Yin not to allow other forces to come into Yunzhou and cause trouble. It was their business where they wanted to cause trouble, but Yunzhou absolutely could not be in chaos.
After all, Yunzhou is now the foundation for Jiang Liu's advancement in strength. He has spent so much effort to build up this situation, and he can't afford to ruin it.
Upon receiving the news, Jiang Liu immediately set off for Xia County.
After all, this was a major event concerning the entire Yunzhou, and no mistakes could be made. Jiang Liu was not at ease unless he watched it with his own eyes.
Moreover, the arrival of the Vast Righteous Sect has greatly enhanced the strength of the entire Yunzhou, which has been of great help in stabilizing the situation in Yunzhou.
Currently, apart from the three elders of the three sects, the entire Yunzhou region only has six Grandmaster, including the forces belonging to Jiang Liu's Jiang Liu.
Therefore, for the time being, they are still the weaker party, which is why Jiang Liu doesn't dare to roam around.
However, with the addition of two Grandmaster from the Vast Righteous Sect, their strength is now no weaker than the alliance in the neighboring Xun Province or the Zheng Family alliance in Dui Province.
Even if Yunzhou wasn't impregnable, at least when Jiang Liu left Yunzhou, no one dared to provoke him.
When Jiang Liu arrived at Xia City in Xia County, the vanguard of the Vast Righteous Sect had just entered the territory of Xia County.
Jiang Liu waited at the City Lord's Mansion in Xia City for three days before Li Moran and the others arrived in Xia City.
When Li Moran saw Jiang Liu standing at the city gate to greet him, a happy smile immediately appeared on his face.
Li Qiaoyun, who was beside Li Moran, had already rushed towards Jiang Liu early in the morning.
However, when Li Qiaoyun came to Jiang Liu's side, she stopped, looked at Jiang Liu timidly, and dared not speak.
Jiang Liu looked at Li Qiaoyun, who looked much more haggard from the journey, smiled at her, and said, "You must be tired from the trip. Let's go into town and rest!"
Li Qiaoyun nodded obediently without saying anything.
Looking at his daughter's pathetic state, Li Moran felt deeply helpless.
Jiang Liu turned to Li Moran and said, "Uncle, please settle down first. I will arrange for people to help you settle everyone in."
Li Moran smiled at Jiang Liu and said, "Thank you for your trouble, Nephew!" After saying that, he led the people from the Vast Righteous Sect into the city gate.
When the members of the Vast Righteous Sect passed by Jiang Liu, they all greeted Jiang Liu with friendly smiles.
Jiang Liu nodded to everyone with a smile.
Meanwhile, the Listening Wind Pavilion people who were following on the side had already stepped forward and taken the initiative to lead the way for Li Moran and the others.
Li Qiaoyun sighed as she watched Jiang Liu, then followed Li Moran through the city gate.
At this moment Elder He stepped forward and said to Jiang Liu, "Jiang Liu, I have something I want to tell you."
Jiang Liu nodded and followed Elder He to the side.
"Do you know that Li Xuewu and his group are going to join the Exotic Beast Valley?" Elder He asked Jiang Liu first.
Jiang Liu nodded, indicating that he understood, and asked with a question in his mind, "What's wrong? Is there a problem?"
Elder He shook his head, looking worried, and said, "There's no problem for now. Are you aware of the recent actions of the three sects?"
When Jiang Liu heard Elder He said, he was taken aback and asked, "Elder He, have you heard something?"
Elder He shook his head and said, "No, it's just that the situation in the Jianghu has been very chaotic recently. Most of the Grandmaster from the Martial Prohibition Hall have joined the Exotic Beast Valley, and I'm afraid that the Exotic Beast Valley will get burned because of this."
Jiang Liu frowned slightly and said, "Please rest assured, sir, I will not let anything happen to the Exotic Beast Valley. I am still True Inheritor Disciple of the Exotic Beast Valley."
Elder He heard Jiang Liu say this, his worries were somewhat relieved.
Afterwards, Elder He mentioned to Jiang Liu that now that the Vast Righteous Sect members had safely arrived in Yunzhou, he should return to the Exotic Beast Valley.
After all, he has been away from the Exotic Beast Valley for so long, it's time for him to go back.
Afterwards, Elder He led the people of the Exotic Beast Valley to bid farewell to Jiang Liu.
Jiang Liu also bowed to the people of the Exotic Beast Valley to say goodbye, and watched their figures disappear into the air before continuing his journey towards Xia City.
As for the Exotic Beast Valley of Exotic Beast, most of them were given to Jiang Liu as support for Jiang Liu Listening Wind and Gentle Rain Pavilion. Elder He only took some back with him.
Yi Yue then stepped forward and reported to Jiang Liu, "My lord, I will return to Yun City now."
Jiang Liu nodded, indicating that he agreed to his request.
After all, Xia City is going to be handed over to Exotic Weapon Valley, and has nothing to do with Yi Yue and the Five Poisons Sect, so he can't be of much help by staying here.
Moreover, he has been away from the church for so long, he must have a lot of things to deal with.
After watching Yi Yue leave with the Five Poisons Sect members, Jiang Liu headed towards the city gate.
When Jiang Liu returned to the City Lord's Mansion, Li Moran and the others had already settled in.
Following Jiang Liu's instructions, Listening Wind Pavilion directly placed Li Moran and other important figures of the Vast Righteous Sect in the City Lord's Mansion.
As for the people of Exotic Weapon Valley, they had already moved out of the City Lord's Mansion two days ago, leaving the position vacant for the Vast Righteous Sect.
Qin Bailian also personally came to Xia City to arrange these matters, as well as the handover with the Vast Righteous Sect.
Qin Bailian is currently in contact with Li Moran, instructing him to send people to various locations to take over the garrison duties.
There are also some areas that should be noted, or forces that should be taken into account.
It's all about defense, and keeping an eye on the mountains for any unusual activity—basic stuff.
As for business matters, these had already been entrusted to Ascension Tower, the Feng Family, the Hai family, and the Wang Family for joint management.
Therefore, all business activities in Yunzhou are gradually shifting towards these few companies.
Currently, Exotic Weapon Valley and the Five Poisons Sect are only responsible for the defense of each prefecture, tax collection, and supervision of local forces. In the future, the Vast Righteous Sect will have the same responsibilities as Exotic Weapon Valley and the Five Poisons Sect.
As for intelligence surveillance of the entire Yunzhou, it was the responsibility of the Listening Wind and Gentle Rain Pavilion.
Jiang Liu thus gained control of the entire Yunzhou and then assigned each of them their respective duties.
Only by ensuring that the people of Yunzhou can live and work in peace and contentment can the Special Essence Particles needed for cultivation be continuously generated for the Jiang Liu.
After a brief exchange between Jiang Liu and Li Moran and Qin Bailian, Jiang Liu prepared to call for a banquet to welcome the Vast Righteous Sect members who had been traveling for several months.
After all, it's not something that can be done quickly to hand over the affairs of a county all at once.
Moreover, they have nothing else to do after that, so let them discuss it themselves later, since Jiang Liu won't stay here for long.
However, Li Moran disagreed with Jiang Liu's arrangement. He said, "Let's settle the people who came with us first, and then we can eat and drink!"
After listening, Jiang Liu nodded in agreement. Since Li Moran had this idea, it meant he genuinely cared about ordinary people.
There are very few people like this in the entire Great Qian Dynasty now, so how could Jiang Liu not support him?
