Killing His Way Here

Because that important figure had yet to respond, Li Hongbo did not know how to decide for the moment.

But soon, he thought of a temporary solution.

"Keep a low profile during this period of time. Do not make any moves for now, but send all our men out to monitor the movements of the Zhang Family of Huashan County. Once that Zhang Clan prodigy leaves, report to me!"

"As for the Zhang Family, I will give that little ghost called Zhang Qingyuan some face and leave them alone for now. But the Great Powers in those other counties no longer need to exist!"

King Lianyun Li Hongbo's gaze turned cold, a decision already forming in his heart.

In truth, more than ten years ago, Lianyun Stockade had already possessed the strength to swallow up the small counties scattered across the western reaches of Huainan Prefecture. Yet, for all sorts of reasons, it had never come to pass.

Now, the rise of that Zhang Clan prodigy had given Li Hongbo a sense of crisis.

What if, in the future, another figure like that Zhang Clan prodigy emerged from one of the Great Families in those counties? Would that not be disastrous?

As long as he swallowed up the powers in the surrounding counties, leaving only the Zhang Clan of Huashan County, would they not then be at his mercy, to knead and squeeze as he pleased? Would the task assigned by that important figure back then not become far easier to complete?

"That Zhang Clan prodigy has given me a warning. Once that little ghost Zhang Qingyuan leaves, I will personally make a move and kill every True Essence Realm cultivator in those counties. Then you will mobilize all the power of Lianyun Stockade and seize those counties for me!"
