Upon hearing this, Ziyi gave Li Changfeng a deep look, thinking to herself, "Are you implying that you are a hidden dragon in this cold land? But you're right! You are indeed a hidden dragon!"
Upon hearing this, the Viper flattered, "What a fine name, sir! It's certainly imposing! I really can't think of anything else, so I'll just call myself Viper!"
Upon hearing this, Qingyi smiled faintly and said, "Then I'll be called Green Butterfly!"
Upon hearing this, Ziyi smiled slightly and said, "Then I'll be called Purple Bee!"
Seeing this, the Viper sighed, "It's a pity that Blackheart hasn't woken up from his injuries yet, otherwise he would definitely be very happy!"
Qingyi smiled slightly upon hearing this, "Don't worry! Blackheart's injuries have stabilized, and he will wake up within seven days!"
Upon hearing this, the Viper sighed, "That's the only way!"
Suddenly, Xiao Qing ran in and threw herself into Li Changfeng's arms, pleading, "Big brother! I want a code name too!"
Li Changfeng was slightly taken aback upon hearing this. "Hehe! What codename do you want? Tell me!"
Xiao Qing hesitated for a moment upon hearing this, then smiled and said, "Then I'll be called Qing Luan!"
Li Changfeng was slightly surprised upon hearing this, "Qingluan, you know about this too! Who taught you that!"
Xiao Qing smiled slightly upon hearing this, "Which old man told me that? That's why I knew!"
Li Changfeng chuckled upon hearing this, "Good! Not bad! It's always good to learn more! You're not young anymore, you should find an academy to study under!"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Qing shook her head frantically, like a rattle-drum, "No! I don't want to study! I want to learn martial arts!!"
Everyone was stunned upon hearing this, and they all gave a wry smile. "Xiao Qing! You should study literature before learning martial arts, otherwise you won't even be able to understand the martial arts manuals!"
Xiao Qing pouted upon hearing this, "Fine! Then let's study literature first!"
Li Changfeng chuckled softly upon hearing this and patted her head. "Hey! That's a good girl!"
Suddenly, Xiao Qing asked in confusion, "Big brother! Why is your organization called 'Hidden Dragon of Cold Mountain' instead of 'Hidden Dragon of Northern Mountain'? This place is clearly Northern Mountain!"
Li Changfeng chuckled upon hearing this, "I don't like the name Beishan! Hanshan is more fitting; I think Hanshan really suits the environment here!"
Ziyi nodded upon hearing this, "I think so too! Actually, this mountain range doesn't really have a name. It was just given a name by the people from the North Mountain Pharmacy. Now that they've been wiped out, we've completely taken their place and renamed it Cold Mountain Pharmacy!"
Li Changfeng nodded upon hearing this, "That's certainly feasible! Our priority now is to replace North Mountain Pharmacy! Then we can slowly eliminate the surrounding forces and gradually become the dominant force in Northern Di City!"
Ziyi frowned upon hearing this. "That's not difficult. I can just eliminate the forces one by one. It's just that we don't have enough manpower. We only have a few people, and we can't do it ourselves all the time. It's really difficult to find some trustworthy people in such a short time!"
Qingyi's eyes lit up upon hearing this. "Sister! This is easy! I still have some connections in Cloud City. I can just call them all over!"
Upon hearing this, the Viper quickly replied, "I have one too! I can call them over as well!"
Li Changfeng smiled slightly upon hearing this, "Perhaps I also have some people I can bring!"
Upon hearing this, Ziyi was slightly surprised, "I didn't expect that you, sir, would also bring subordinates. I thought you always traveled alone!"
Upon hearing this, Li Changfeng sighed, "I was actually forced to do this. It just so happens that I have this opportunity to bring them here. My current identity should not be exposed yet, so Ziyi, you can make the decision for now!"
Upon hearing this, Ziyi's face turned solemn. Knowing the gravity of the matter, she readily agreed.
Seeing this, Li Changfeng nodded, gathered a stream of true energy in his fingers, and tapped it on the group of people. They all felt the Life and Death Talisman power within their bodies suddenly turn into a pool of icy water, slowly flowing out of their bodies, which immediately relieved them.
"Thank you, sir, for removing the Life and Death Talisman from us!"
Upon hearing this, Li Changfeng waved his hand dismissively, saying, "Since you are truly loyal to me, I will not treat you unfairly. This is just a small matter!"
Seeing this, Ziyi gave Li Changfeng a deep look. "My lord! Aren't you afraid that we will rebel and leave?"
Upon hearing this, Li Changfeng burst into laughter, "Hahaha! Trust those you employ, and don't employ those you don't trust! Since you're with me, I trust you. However, even if you wanted to rebel against me, you wouldn't have the ability!"
A strange light flashed in the Ziyi's eyes as he thought to himself, "What a confident lad! I'm actually starting to like you!"
Then, the Ziyi smiled slightly, cupped his hands, and said, "Your Excellency has a magnanimous heart! We admire you!"
Li Changfeng nodded upon hearing this, "You guys get back to work!"
"I obey!"
Seven days later.
Blackheart slowly woke up. When he learned that Li Changfeng was going to build up his power, he was excited and wanted to join. He also knew that Li Changfeng had spent a lot of money to save him. He was very grateful and changed his code name to Shān Xīn so that he could do more good deeds in the future and repay Li Changfeng!
On the streets of Northern Di City, the signboard of North Mountain Pharmacy, which was originally in the center of the bustling area, was slowly taken down by the Ziyi and replaced with the signboard of Cold Mountain Pharmacy, which startled the surrounding forces.
"Has the North Mountain Pharmacy really been destroyed?"
"Nonsense! The constables nearby brought out corpses one after another, all with their throats slit, killed with a single blow! He was an extremely ruthless master!"
"Do you think it's possible that this matter is related to the Cold Mountain Pharmacy?"
"Hmm! I think it's very possible, otherwise he wouldn't have been able to obtain the land deed for North Mountain Pharmacy by such a coincidence!"
Just as everyone was discussing, a figure Ziyi slowly walked out of the Cold Mountain Pharmacy. As soon as this Ziyi appeared, the surrounding men stared at him intently. It was no doubt that this person was Ziyi.
The Ziyi smiled slightly, and everyone seemed to be mesmerized, almost falling over. "Esteemed guests! Our shop is newly opened today, and all Snow Ginseng is 20% off, plus other elixirs to choose from! Please come in and have a look!"
Upon hearing this, the men were all excited and flattered, "With such a fairy-like doctor in her pharmacy, we will certainly do you the honor of coming! Let's go! Let's go in and take a look!"
The crowd went inside, leaving only a few female customers staring at the Ziyi with hostility, their eyes blazing with anger. They sneered, "She's a whore! All she knows is how to do business with her women!"
Upon hearing this, Ziyi smiled slightly, her figure blurred for a moment, and she instantly appeared beside the several sharp-tongued women, her hand suddenly slashing across their faces.
With a ripping sound, their faces were slashed with hideous bloody marks, but they returned to their previous positions as if nothing had happened, moving at an incredible speed!
"Ah! Ah! My face! My face!" Only now did these women belatedly realize the pain in their faces, and they all screamed.
Seeing this, Ziyi remained indifferent and casually ordered a few servants to drive these sharp-tongued women away.
