In Nha Cheng Jade Grottoes, freezing rain fell, like bone-cutting frost and snow.

At the stone house built outside the Jade Cave, the young jailer Qing Lei held a soft whip in his hand. When he saw a sixty-year-old man carrying a bamboo basket and fell in the mud, he stepped forward and grabbed the opportunity before the others.

The colleague in front waved his whip.

"You want to be lazy again, right? If you break these jade stones, you can't afford to pay for it with your life!" Qing Lei shouted loudly, as if he deliberately let others hear.

He swung the whip, and the whip hit the sixty-year-old mountain man. The old mountain man subconsciously wanted to wail, but he found that the whip didn't hurt at all, which made the old mountain man stunned for a moment.

"Crying in pain, begging for mercy..." Qing Lei said anxiously.

"Oh, it hurts!!" The old mountain man also realized that the young man was trying to help him, and hurriedly cooperated with the cry of pain.

An old man and a young man performed a show, and the other martial arts supervisors of the Jade Grotto did not pay much attention.

The old mountain man thanked him in a low voice, then carried the jade and bamboo basket on his back and walked to the horse rack.

Qing Lei put away his whip and breathed a sigh of relief as he watched the old man leave.

That's all he can help.

Just as he was about to return to the stone house, a tall black figure stopped in front of Qinglei in the rain. Qinglei thought he had hit the wall at first, but when he looked up, he discovered that there was a head on the black wall!

The owner of this head had a cold expression, his cheek lines were like blades, and a pair of vulture-like eyes stared at him without any emotion, causing Qing Lei to take a few steps back.

"Master Huang... I have already taught those lazy workers a lesson." Qing Lei forced a smile.

"You don't use your whip well, let me teach you!" The burly man pulled out his whip and threw it hard at the little jailer.

The whip exploded in the air like firecrackers, reverberating throughout the valley.

And such a whip fell on Qing Lei, and a whip knocked him to the ground, his skin and flesh were torn open, and blood came out.

"Crack!"

Another whip hit Qing Lei hard on the back. The terrible whip marks stretched from the neck to the waist, just like being cut with a knife!

"Drag him down, and after he recovers from his injuries, throw him into the jade cave to dig out rocks!" said the burly man.

…

It was foggy and rainy, and even though I was wearing a reed raincoat, I was still feeling chilly.

Three horses, two women and one man, entered Nha City in the fog.

Nha City is extremely depressed. There is not even a single person on the streets. Even the bustling Jade Street and Jade Street at the city gate are missing even a single merchant.

Wu Hen got off his horse and finally saw an old man at a stable.

"Old man, where have the people in the city gone?" Wu Hen asked.

"Master Lu??" The old man also recognized Wu Hen at a glance, and said with surprise on his face, "If you don't escape outside the territory, what will you do when you come back?"

"I didn't escape, I was just improving myself. Now when I come back, of course I want to properly manage this city that I took over from my father." Wu Hen replied.

"Just manage it and take care of your own life," the old man said.

"Stop nagging me like this. Where are the people in the city? Why are you the only ones left in your 70s and 80s?" Wu Hen said.

"Of course he was arrested for quarrying. The most valuable thing in our Nha City is jade. I heard that this jade can be made into objects comparable to the demon jade through some top craftsmen. Now the people in Jiang Mansion are going crazy.

Similarly, we threw all the men, women, and children in our entire city into the jade cave to collect stones and jades for them, so that they can be compared... But there are many demon spirits in the jade cave, and my children are not warriors.

If you go deep, you will be eaten easily." The old man's words were very clear.

"Isn't there still some days left for asylum?" Ruan Muhan frowned.

"How can they obey the rules?" the old man said.

"Old man, do you know how many people from the other party are here and what their strengths are?" Wu Hen also asked casually.

"There are ten martial arts masters and seventy or eighty martial arts disciples. They are just stationed here first. More people from the Jiang family will come later. I am afraid it will be a government army!" the old man replied.

"You know all this?" Wu Hen said somewhat surprised.

"My son-in-law is a good man and knows how to flatter. He is now working as a supervisor there. He is thinking of ways to help the big guys, but he is not very capable and what he can do is very limited. Oh, by the way, his name is Qing Lei, and he just helps

Look at the cell..." the old man said.

"So it's him. You have hired a good son-in-law. He is very good and a good material." Wu Hen was deeply impressed by the young jailer. Without his careful care, he would probably have died in prison long ago.

Yes, it was him who helped him get out of trouble.

While they were talking, a horse suddenly came from outside the city gate, with a man on the horse and another on his back.

"Old man, your Qinglei is about to die. Come and take him back to take care of him for a few days. If you want to survive, he should be sent to the Jade Cave to work as a slave!" the horseman said arrogantly.

As if it was dirty, the rider pushed the person on the horse to the ground without waiting for the old man to come over to check.

Wu Hen had quick eyes and quick hands, and immediately stepped forward to help Qing Lei, who was about to fall off his horse.

"Are you from Jiang Mansion?" Wu Hen hugged Qing Lei and then asked.

"Who are you? This city is under the jurisdiction of my Jiang Mansion. The rest of the people are waiting to leave quickly, otherwise the whip will be at your service!" The horseman immediately raised his whip and was about to whip it at Wu Hen in front of him.

However, as soon as he raised his whip, a blurry figure flashed in front of him, and the next moment, a bloody hole appeared in his chest!

The horseman didn't even react. The other person had drawn his sword and stood beside Wu Hen. Only then did he see clearly that it was a woman wearing a black raincoat...

"Bang!"

The horseman fell to the ground and showed no signs of life.

The old man on the side was shocked. He was so panicked that he didn't know whether to stay or run away. He could only stutter and said: "What are you doing? He is an official of Jiang Mansion. If you kill him, how can you explain to Jiang...Jiang Mansion!"

"I didn't intend to explain to them in the first place. The city lord came back just to kill them all," Wu Hen said.

"Is... is it Master Lu?" Qing Lei opened his eyes in a daze.

"It's me, I said I would be back." Wu Hen said, motioning to another woman riding a horse to get ointment, "Qiucui, help him treat his wounds, and give him a bottle of blood-tonifying pills."

"Okay." The female college student nodded.

The female college student has adapted to her identity as a female snitch, and has mastered a lot of martial arts skills in this month.

Her learning ability is very good, no wonder she is a top student who can be admitted to key colleges and universities. Even when she became a female snitch in Zhenwu Continent, she got started quickly after some mental struggle.

Being able to steal the Dragon Blood Pill from Master Quan's treasure house, this female snitch is very capable. Wu Hen also plans to train her well and become the king of thieves!

All high-quality elixirs were used, and even severe injuries to the flesh, muscles, and bones could be healed quickly. After feeding a bottle of blood-enhancing elixirs, the half-dead little jailer Qing Lei was restored to life visibly to the naked eye.

"Where are the people in the Jiang Mansion at the Jade Grotto?" Wu Hen asked.

"You have to be careful. There is a man named Huang Zhang who is probably already a member of the Wu family." said the young jailer Qing Lei.

"Don't worry, Sister Ruan is also a martial artist now!" Qiucui said.

"Ah??" The little jailer was a little surprised, and his eyes fell on Ruan Muhan, who was cold and cool in a raincoat.

Qing Lei's disbelieving look made Ruan Muhan feel a little uncomfortable.

In fact, Ruan Muhan himself found it incredible.

After taking the Dragon Blood Pill, her cultivation level increased rapidly, from the ninth level Qi River to the second level Qi River, and her cultivation level increased significantly every day!

This growth rate made her feel so unreal that her drunken joke actually came true!

Three months ago, she was still a warrior stuck at the ninth level of cultivation. Now she has jumped to two great realms in a row. Looking at the realm, there are countless people who are stronger than her in this realm.

She has the strength to command a city and compete with the Jiang Mansion. Even Mrs. Zeng did not dare to urge her to return to the Zeng Mansion after hearing that she had broken through to the martial arts community. She even kindly asked her subordinates to pass on a message and let her concentrate on training.

Practice so that you can become her right-hand man in the future.

Martial arts masters are just playthings of the powerful in the house.

But becoming a Wu family seems to be on the same level as them.

So in recent days, Ruan Muhan feels more and more that it is possible that Mrs. Zeng will become his stepping stone!

"Let's go, kill them directly, they happen to be there!" Wu Hen said.

"Yeah." Ruan Muhan nodded.

"Then I will go to the official road to find out the intelligence of Jiang Mansion. If they send experts and troops, I will inform you immediately." Qiucui said.

"You are getting better and better." Wu Hen nodded, and then said, "You have to do one more thing, which is to recruit some capable people and strangers, and let them work for me on an employment relationship.

If there are no warriors to protect this Ya city, it will be taken away sooner or later."

"Understood!" Qiucui nodded and quickly understood what Wu Hen meant.

Qiucui rode away.

After leaving the city gate, she found a safe forest and chose to withdraw from the world.

Information interoperability in Zhenwu Continent was very poor, so it was impossible for her to actually go to nearby cities to inquire about information.

Besides, gathering information is not the point, the point is recruiting troops!

Taking off the virtual helmet, a woman with small freckles woke up from her dormitory.

She immediately logged into the Zhenwu Continent network established by compatriots around the world, and then published a post.

"In the wilderness borderland, Jiuluo Border, and Yacheng between Zeng Mansion and Jiang Mansion, we can hire thugs above martial arts masters with high salaries; at martial arts level, the price can be negotiated!"
