Nine handsome men and beautiful women swaggered through the city and found a restaurant that was quite famous in Xiqin City. They ordered some food and drinks and listened to the two or three drinkers in the restaurant talking about various topics.

Restaurants and brothels have always been a place where people of all religions and professions mix, and they are also places where gossip spreads the fastest. When Zhang Huaming and others first arrived, they were basically blind to what was going on in Xiqin City. They were not familiar with the place, so they wanted to inquire.

Some news, this is definitely one of the best places.

Xiqin City is not far from Sunset City in the Xilong Empire. It can even be said to be a peripheral border city guarding Sunset City. In other words, around Sunset City, there are several cities with the same nature as Xiqin City, and each other is

They restrict each other and assist each other, surrounding Sunset City in the middle, forming a defense line to guard the safety of Sunset City.

Basically, as long as something happens in Sunset City, the news will be spread to Xiqin City on the same day, and vice versa. Once there is any trouble in Xiqin City, Sunset City will be informed of it immediately.

"Brother, there is something unclear about Cayenne." Cayenne, whose eyes were bright and powerful, frowned slightly, glanced around, and said to Zhang Huaming.

"Well, what's the matter?" Zhang Huaming used chopsticks to put a piece of meat into Jiang Liuxin's bowl. Hearing Cayenne's question, he raised his head and glanced at him.

Since reuniting with the White Tiger Divine Beast in the White Tiger Valley, Cayenne, a little brat who has been living in the Warrior Continent for an unknown number of years, has finally recognized his ancestors and returned to his clan. He has received most of the inheritance of the White Tiger Divine Beast, and his cultivation has improved rapidly. In just a short time

In one year, with the help of Zhang Huaming's elixir, he had broken through to the first level of the Taoist realm.

He who originally looked a little childish has become more and more mature. He has the air of a general and a pair of tiger-like eyes. He can't help but be intimidating.

Nangong Yue even said directly to her face that if an ordinary person saw Cayenne, they would almost mistakenly think of it as a ferocious tiger. It can be seen that today's Cayenne has begun to gradually transform into a real white tiger beast.

After transformation, he might one day inherit the position of the white tiger beast.

"Brother, our Xia Dynasty Empire has already invaded the Xilong Empire and occupied most of its territory. Sooner or later, the Xilong Empire will perish. In addition, in the secret realm of the underground palace, a large number of masters from the Xilong Empire died.

Why don't we go directly to their home base, destroy them, and then occupy the capital Sunset City? Wouldn't it be easier?" Cayenne asked the question that had been buried in his heart for many days.

It is related to the life and death of a country, and it is also closely related to what they are doing now. Everyone can't help but turn their heads to look at Zhang Huaming to see what he said.

In fact, not only Cayenne was confused, Liu Juebin and others also had doubts.

"With our strength, it is easy to kill Shen Chengao. Although it is a little troublesome to kill the four major families, it is only a piece of cake. To occupy Sunset City, for us, it is simply a matter of effort.

It's easy." Zhang Huaming drank a glass of wine. He paused and said, "It's not difficult to kill people. When you pick up the knife and drop it, your head will fall off. It's easy to kill tens of thousands of people. It's just a matter of spending more money.

It’s just strength.”

Zhang Huaming glanced at the crowd from the corner of his eye and saw that they were all staring at him intently and listening with great interest. He couldn't help but smile and continued: "It is easy to kill people, but it is much harder to shock and win over the people. Kill one

Shen Chengao, the imperial capital is in chaos. There will inevitably be new people in power to take over immediately, such as Zhu Chengao, Lin Chengao and others."

"By doing this, although we can make the Xilong Empire leaderless for a while and the people's morale is in chaos, it cannot lead to the complete destruction of the Xilong Empire. After all, a centipede insect is dead but not stiff, and a dead camel is bigger than a horse. We may even be because of our

Killing Shen Chengao will cause the ordinary people who were originally in panic to share the same hatred and stimulate the bloody nature hidden in their bones, which will be very detrimental to us."

"Will it be useful if we do this now?" Cayenne asked even more doubtfully.

"The so-called strategy is to defeat the enemy without fighting. There are three benefits to what we are doing now. First, the enemy is in the open and we are in the dark. We know ourselves and the enemy, and we can win by micromanaging, but the enemy is blind to us.

Even if we want to catch us, there is no way to catch us; secondly, people always have inexplicable fear of unknown and mysterious existences. Our purpose of killing these officials step by step is not just to make the Xilong Empire surrender, but also

It is to make everyone in the Xilong Empire, from the royal family to the common people, feel in danger and panic all day long, gradually eroding their beliefs, shaking their will, and no longer able to resist; thirdly, this

It can be considered as a way to pave the way for the complete defeat of the Xilong Empire."

After talking endlessly, Zhang Huaming focused on the three reasons why he is doing this now. The first two were talked about in a eloquent manner, but the last one was just a few figures. It's not that he didn't say it, but it was useless if he said it.

Few people know his true inner thoughts.

With Zhang Huaming's current level of cultivation in the Taoist realm, it would be completely effortless to destroy a large city with a population of millions. With a wave of his hand, he could cause countless spaces to be shattered, let alone a city. Although it was not as good as Xuantianba's

Once more than two levels of power are used, it can easily cause the space to collapse, but not just anyone can do it.

But this is not Zhang Huaming's purpose. He has to consider the overall situation. He is the assistant, Qin Xiaotian is the leader, one is bright and one is dark, one is good and one is evil. They cooperate with each other to completely control the Xilong Empire. In this way

First, when the will of the rulers and people of the Xilong Empire was shaken step by step by Zhang Huaming and Qin Xiaotian, this once glorious empire would eventually be unable to escape its fate.

"Oh, that's it." Cayenne's eyes were confused and he nodded in understanding. Nangong Yue, Han Wei and others frowned slightly in thought, as if they were digesting Zhang Huaming's words.

"Eat. After you finish eating, go to bed early." Zhang Huaming said with a smile.

"Yeah." Nangong Yue and others nodded.

*********

"Hey, I heard it. It is said that the head of the Shen family is finally going to take action himself." Someone in the restaurant said suddenly.

"Head of the Shen family? Are you talking about the Shen family, the head of the four major families in Sunset City?" Someone immediately asked in surprise.

"Hey, who says it's not? Don't forget, although the emperor of our Xilong Empire is of orthodox royal blood, the Shen family is the real ruler of our Xilong Empire. The head of the Shen family, Shen Chengao, is said to be

It has been decades since we took action. I think we are probably preparing to launch a formal counterattack against the Shameless Xia Empire." The person from before said incessantly.

"Hmph, the Xia Dynasty Empire has already annexed half of our Xilong Empire. It's too late for Shen Chengao to start preparing for a major counterattack now." Some obviously very patriotic Dung Qing immediately retorted with disdain.

The head of the Shen Chengao family, the head of the four major families in Sunset City, is the actual leader of the Xilong Empire. This is no secret at all. It has long been known to everyone that what these scumbags hate is to lament their misfortunes and anger them without fighting, and the country is unhappy.

After being destroyed, it actually started to slowly launch a counterattack, which was a little late.

In addition, in the past year, the Xilong Empire has been repeatedly defeated by the Xia Dynasty Empire. It was in a state of disarray and was retreating steadily. The people had already complained, and some even shouted for Shen Chengao to step down and replace him with a more capable person.

Take charge of the overall situation. There is no way, they cannot let their country be destroyed, let alone allow another person to take charge of the land under their feet.

"Don't talk nonsense. Who do you think the Master of the Shen family is? He is the famous prince of our Xilong Empire. Although he has fought many battles in the past year, he is still doing his best to resist the enemy's invasion."

"Then why did you just say that the head of the Shen family, Shen Chengao, was going to take action himself?"

"Tch, it seems that you are just an ignorant country citizen. Have you forgotten the uproar that has been raging in our Xilong Empire for the past half month?"

"What's the matter?" The man's face turned slightly red and he asked in a low voice.

"Hmph, isn't it just that there are people who are bragging about their reputation and doing evil in our Xilong Empire, killing thousands of officials of our Xilong Empire, and threatening to ask our Xilong Empire to surrender obediently to the Xia Dynasty Empire? After hearing this, the head of the Shen family,

They got furious on the spot and sent out several groups of experts, intending to catch the real culprit behind the scenes. However, those guys came and went without a trace. They were so elusive that almost all the people sent by the Shen family were killed and no one came back.

This forced the head of the Shen family to take action himself." Someone from before answered.

"Oh, that's it." The man nodded as if he understood something like Cayenne, "I do know a little bit about these things. I heard that our officials in Xiqin City now only dare to hide in the mansion and drink every day.

Xiaochou not only hired a large number of expert guards to protect his safety, but he almost became an old otaku who could never leave the house or step outside."

"Extra number, extra number." While the two were talking, a person suddenly rushed in outside the restaurant like a gust of wind, and said to everyone breathlessly.

Now that the country is in trouble, the diners in the restaurant are basically talking about the current situation and the crisis facing the Xilong Empire. As soon as they heard the warning, they all immediately turned their heads and looked over.

"The top masters of the four major families who suddenly disappeared a year ago, such as Sima Wudi, Shen Yiqing and others, have finally returned." The person outside the hawking department immediately said.

"Oh! That would be great. I heard that the top masters of the four major families are all people with unfathomable strength. They are all martial arts wizards and the best among them. If they help, those who only dare to hide will

My brother who sneaks around in the dark and destroys his unification will definitely die without a burial." Immediately someone shouted with excitement.

"But..." The man hawking slogans looked at the people in the restaurant who were looking at him dryly with a sad look on his face. He touched his head in embarrassment and hesitated before saying slowly, "I'm afraid they can't do anything anymore.
