C20 Li Aotian

"En. Yuchi Lingye, Jih Biefeng, Bao Wanhee, and Wen Ruyu. The four families have always been on the same side. I'm afraid that the reason why they didn't come today is because they are discussing the matter of going to the Zhaoming Temple's Water Law Assembly with the Yuchi family or the Jih family."

Lee Aotian nodded slightly. His calm gaze still made it hard to tell whether he was happy or angry. Only his aura became deeper and deeper.

"Master of Lee family, our Nan family has always been indebted to you, the Lee family. That's why we were able to become a powerful family three hundred years ago. If Master of Lee family has any request,i will not delay it."

The patriarch of the Nan family, Nan Huaihong, who was playing with two walnuts, had a stern expression on his face. Although he was older, he seemed to respect Lee Aotian very much.

"That's right. Master of the Lee family, although the four families are on good terms with each other, the power that our four families have formed is enough to run the entire Laucheng. Although our Mo family is not slower than the captain and the Jih family, we can easily defeat the Bao family and the Wen family. "

The middle-aged man, Mo Beishan, had a cold look in his eyes. He seemed to have some grudges against the other four families, but when he turned around and looked at the young man behind him, he smiled.

"Besides, the Ancient Capital is only 26 years old now, and is already a Peak Martial Master Stage. My heart is very close to being unmoved. If you follow me to the Water Continent Dharma Assembly, you might be able to break through to the Unshakeable Stage."

"Hua ~!"

A young man with a sword on his back standing behind the Mo Clan's Patriarch instantly attracted the attention of the crowd.

However, the young man with the sword on his back had a bright look in his eyes. He puffed out his chest and looked confident. His sharp eyes kept staring at Lee Aotian, who was sitting on the main seat. He seemed to be waiting for someone to appear outside the main door of the living room.

The young men present all looked at the young man with the sword on his back. There was admiration, admiration, and admiration in their eyes. Zhuo Yiming's eyes were filled with fighting spirit, and his hair was fluttering in the wind.

However, the young man with the sword on his back, the young master of the Mo Clan,mo Ancient Capital, remained unmoved, as if he had no interest in Zhuo Yiming and the others. His sharp eyes kept looking out of the hall.

"Master of Lee family, although our Tu family's foundation is weak, we are one of the ten major families in Laucheng. Naturally, we are willing to listen to the orders of the master of Lee family. We will work together to develop Laucheng and establish a family that will never decline for a long time."

He had been resting with his eyes closed the whole time. The patriarch of the Tu family, Tu Wuxing, who had yet to speak, immediately expressed his stance.

The ten great families of Laucheng were divided into two factions. Only the Fang family and the Leng family remained neutral. Although they seemed to be in harmony, there were still schemes and schemes going on in the dark, and they were constantly competing with each other.

The poor were rich in literature and martial arts. The children of the Humble Class could only rely on reading to make a living. Those who could cultivate martial arts were all rich, but families without financial resources could not nurture talents.

Warriors could eat a cow a day. Even if it was a level two or three desolate beast meat full of essence, they would need to eat five kilograms a day to replenish their consumption.

Although Martial Master Stage's appetite was greatly reduced, they needed Qi Fostering Pills to nourish their Qi. One Qi Fostering Pill was worth a thousand taels of silver. Even if there were artificers and alchemists in every big family, they would still consume a lot of money.

Over a hundred warriors of Lee family, more than a dozen martial masters, and hundreds of servants, the consumption of the canteen was a huge expense. The ten major families had many properties under their name, and even an iron mine in the Ten Thousand Beast Mountain Range was mined by the ten major families. The dividends of the ten major families were based on the dividends of the major families.

If it wasn't for the deterrence of the city lord, the safety of the ten major families would have been torn apart on the surface.

In front of such a huge fortune, even Unshakeable Stage warriors would feel greedy.

"En, nephew of the Ancient Capital is the leader of the ten outstanding young men in Laucheng. If he can break through to the Unshakeable Stage this time... It's also a great blessing for our Laucheng. Your Mo family will instantly become one of the top three powerful families in the Laucheng, and you will be able to get more resources from them. "

Lee Aotian looked at the talented Mo Ancient Capital and nodded slightly. He had high hopes for the genius of the Mo family,mo Ancient Capital.

"Master of the Lee family,i heard that Yihong has already reached the Late Martial Master Stage. With the guidance of the master of the Lee family,i'm afraid he has a higher chance of breaking through to the Unshakeable Stage than the Ancient Capital."

Mo Beishan looked at Lee Aotian. "But I heard that both Yuchi and the geniuses of the Jih family are at the Peak Martial Master Stage, and they can break through at any time. Once they break through,i'm afraid that they will push us down."

A serious look flashed across Mo Beishan's cold eyes.

The heads of the ten major families of Laucheng were Yuchi Lingye, Jih Biefeng, and Lee Aotian. The three of them were the strongest, and they were the ones who received the dividends from the iron mines every year. They also had the most. Although the other seven major families were different, there was not much difference between them.

However, if the balance was broken, the situation would be completely different.

"Yihong has been happy since he was young. He has his cultivation method, and I have never asked about his cultivation."

A hint of a smile flashed across Lee Aotian's calm face, although he had completely let Lee Yihong go. As a father, how could he not pay attention to the growth of his son? Although Lee Yihong rarely showed himself, he had devoted himself to cultivation. Every once in a while, Lee Aotian would secretly observe Lee Yihong's cultivation progress.

Lee Yihong, who was afraid of living alone in the bamboo forest at the age of twelve, took a fork in the road. His heart was lonely, and he had developed an aversion to the world. However, he discovered that Lee Yihong was very brave and advanced. He created his own elementary martial skill, and he was even obsessed with the Dao of calligraphy. His cultivation could be said to have advanced by leaps and bounds. Only then did Lee Aotian truly feel relieved and even secretly relieved.

"The top ten outstanding young men in this generation of Laucheng have far surpassed the past. Each and every one of them has a chance to step into the Laucheng. Unshakeable Stage, but this step is also extremely difficult. Otherwise, there wouldn't be only twenty or so Unshakeable Stage warriors among the three million people and sixteen thousand Martial Master Stage warriors in the entire Laucheng. "

Lee Aotian sighed with emotion. The transformation of the Martial Master Stage into the Unshakeable Stage was a qualitative change. It wasn't just about cultivating martial arts, but also stepping into the realm of cultivating martial arts and comprehending the Dao.

"What!? More than twenty?"

Mo Beishan, Nan Huaihong, Tu Wuxing, and the three patriarchs' expressions changed all of a sudden, and they looked at Lee Aotian in shock.

On the surface, the Laucheng was showing its true colors. Only 13 Unshakeable Stage warriors. But now, Lee Aotian had said that there were more than twenty of them. There were at least seven more Unshakeable Stage warriors, and this was an existence that even the three patriarchs didn't know about. This was truly a shocking matter.

They didn't know about the other party's existence, and they couldn't even sense his Qi. It was obvious that the other party's cultivation base was far higher than theirs, and that was why they could easily deceive their senses.

It was just like how an Early Period of Unshakeable Stage warrior couldn't sense the aura of a Late Period of Unshakeable Stage warrior.

"More than twenty of them!"

Even Zhuo Yiming's father, Zhuo Bufan, and the other two old men from the Guanghua City narrowed their eyes. The three of them could see the shock in their eyes.

Out of the 36 cities in the Nanyang Prefecture, there could only be at most 10 major families in each city. Even the largest city in the Nanyang Prefecture, the Tianyang City with a population of nearly 100 million, could only have 10 major families in each city. There were only 10 major families in the Nanyang Prefecture. No matter how strong the other major powers were, they were still a head shorter. They could only be considered as the major powers, the children of wealthy families.

Unless they successfully squeezed out one of the ten big families, they would be able to enter the ranks of the ten big families.

This seemed to be a convenient rule for city and the City Lord's Mansion. It was the rule of law in Hunyuan Dynasty.

"That's right,i know 24 Unshakeable Stage warriors."

A bright light flashed across Lee Aotian's calm eyes. "But our Laucheng can only rank in the top twenty among the 36 cities in Nanyang Prefecture."
