Chapter 273: Pushover

The youth expressed thanks.

Qin Yang gave a faint smile.

After all, he still ended up taking advantage.

The other party's gratitude made Qin Yang feel a bit embarrassed.

"Forget it, considering how much I've taken advantage of you, let me remind you of something."

Qin Yang said.

The youth stared for a moment, then respectfully said, "Mr. Qin, please speak."

"Watch out for your brother."

Qin Yang whispered in the youth's ear.

The youth paused, then fell into thought.

"My own brother?"

"My cousin?"

"He's always been respectful toward me; could he really want to harm me?"

"If someone else had said it, the youth would surely not care."

"But these words came from Qin Yang."

"Someone of his stature would obviously not lie so easily."

"Thank you, Mr. Qin."

Having said that, the youth returned to his seat.

Everyone was a bit curious, wanting to know exactly what Qin Yang had said.

However, the youth just smiled and said nothing. Indeed.

"Let's go."

The auction ended, and Qin Yang and the other person left.

"That just now was the Jiuzhou Cauldron—really great; I never expected to buy one for a million."

Du Li looked somewhat excited.

She knew all too well what kind of treasure the Jiuzhou Cauldron was.

"Yeah, I never would have thought of it; I still need to thank you."

Qin Yang said.

"Then how do you plan to thank me?"

Du Li's bright eyes fixed on Qin Yang.

Qin Yang soon showed her with his actions.

Du Li went through several rounds of near-death experiences.

When it was completely over, Qin Yang rose and left the room.

"What are you going out to do?"

Du Li asked curiously.

"Kill someone."

Qin Yang said.

"The people from the Pine Island Group?"

"Yes, most of them are demons from Daoguo; they call themselves divine envoys. The Pine Island Group's Panri we just killed was one of them. I never expected that, besides Huizi, there would be such a master entering Nan Cheng."

Qin Yang's tone was a bit angry.

He had the Baiyun Guan brothers keep watch over all movements in Nan Cheng.

As a result, a group of strongmen from Daoguo has now entered Nan Cheng.

They have been utterly derelict in their duty.

After dealing with those Daoguo strongmen this time, we still need to properly handle Nan Cheng's defenses.

Perhaps we could expand Baiyun Guan so everyone can live there.

Like a sect, set up a headquarters.

That way, with Song Tianci holding the fort, ordinary cultivators couldn't harm those around him.

We still have too few experts around us.

Unlike those great sects, which after long development have many experts at every level.

Now under him, besides Song Tianci, there's only Wen Gu, who has reached the Transformation Spirit Stage.

Strong cultivators between the Transformation Spirit Stage and the Crossing Tribulation Stage are practically nonexistent.

Even though Qin Yang's methods are heavenly, wanting others to quickly reach high levels still takes time.

Cultivation is not something that can be achieved overnight.

After all, nobody is Sun Wukong, who became a celestial immortal in three years.

"Nan Cheng is too big; the brothers can't possibly keep an eye on everyone. Moreover, those people entered Nan Cheng through legal means and deliberately concealed their strength, so it's normal that the brothers wouldn't notice."

Du Li explained.

Qin Yang naturally knows this as well.

If it weren't for the old man's phone call, he might not have noticed.

Although this is related to Qin Yang spending much of his recent time in the outside world.

But it also shows that making a city watertight is not that simple.

"Forget it, I don't blame them either."

Qin Yang said.

Afterwards, he left the residence.

That night, more than ten people from Daoguo were killed.

Ordinary people of Daoguo who knew the inside story all felt their hearts tremble.

They knew that those who died were not human at all, but great demons.

Only an expert from Long Guo could kill all their great demons in a single night.

The experts of Long Guo noticed their abnormality.

Realizing this, those people feared that Qin Yang and his group would come to their door and kill them as well.

Qin Yang indeed did not seek them out, but the law enforcers came to their door.

Gao Chenchen led people and arrested some of them.

This was Qin Yang's order.

They were all Daoguo people who knew the inside story.

As for the charge, it was truly too simple; fabricating any charge was very easy.

"Daoguo over there is protesting against us; the higher-ups are under great pressure, and they have asked me to inquire whether you can release the people."

Gao Chenchen asked.

Her tone was full of indignation.

"Release the people?"

Qin Yang wore an expression of disbelief.

"Yes, that's the higher-ups' intention. I didn't expect their bones to be so soft; even after we explained the reason to them, they still act like spineless wimps."

Gao Chenchen said, frustrated that they wouldn't improve.

Qin Yang sneered, "Then tell them releasing them is fine—once they're released, they can go imprison themselves in place of those people; as long as they're willing, they can be freed anytime."

Gao Chenchen hesitated a little.

"Isn't that inappropriate?"

Seeing her hesitant expression, Qin Yang sneered, "Don't worry—none of those guys have clean backsides; deliver my words to them, and they won't dare to act out of line."

In fact, it was just as Qin Yang had guessed.

After Gao Chenchen's words were conveyed, their attitude toward Daoguo became tough.

Facing some pressure is nothing.

If they truly offended someone from Dragon Pavilion, having them thrown in would be a trivial matter.

These old slicksters, each one shrewd to the bone, naturally know how to choose.

Gao Chenchen didn't expect Qin Yang to have guessed so accurately.

"You're really smart; if you could make it in the imperial court, you'd surely have a bright future, possibly even reaching the status of those few top bigwigs."

Gao Chenchen sighed.

Qin Yang glanced at Gao Chenchen and smiled, "It's a pity you can't see the President; if you could, you'd know he even wants to yield his position to me, but I don't want it."

"What?"

Gao Chenchen was stunned.

"Is Qin Yang really that amazing?"

"He doesn't need to struggle in the imperial court; the President wants to give him his position."

"Compared to that, those so-called politicians are utterly insignificant."

Just as Gao Chenchen was stunned, a man and a woman came up to them.

"Gao Chenchen, this is your boyfriend, you dead girl, why have you never brought him home?"

"Yeah, Gao Chenchen, you dead girl, since you have a boyfriend, you should tell your parents; not even telling me and your mom is going too far."

At that moment, Gao Chenchen finally realized.

She looked shocked and said, "Mom, Dad, what are you doing here?"

"We just happened to be passing by, saw you, and came over to take a look. Young man—no, son-in-law, what's your name? When did you start dating our Chenchen?"

Qin Yang gave Gao Chenchen a strange look, inquiring.

He was asking Gao Chenchen whether he should act a bit.
