Ten Thousand Sword Masters

In Black Horse Town, with Yu Bo's help, Wang Chaoyang successfully purchased a shop on Willow Street.

"Boss Wang, although this shop is located at the end of the street, it is quite large. With some renovations, it could be opened as a restaurant," Yu Bo said.

"Chief Yu, we won't be sending anyone to run this shop. We're going to rent it out. Can you help me find a tenant? We'll waive the first three months' rent," Wang Chaoyang said.

"If we waive three months' rent, many people will come to rent it, and it will be rented out very quickly," Yu Bo said.

"Then I'll leave this matter to Chief Yu," Wang Chaoyang said gratefully.

"Chief Wang, has the location for the base been decided yet?" Yu Bo asked.

"We've tentatively decided on a location," Wang Chaoyang said.

"Should I go take a look? So I can help you buy a property there," Yu Bo said.

"Of course you need to. I'll take you to see it now." Wang Chaoyang said, and then led Yu Bo to Baiyang Street, another street in Black Horse Town.

Upon arriving at Baiyang Street, Wang Chaoyang pointed to a courtyard and several shops on either side of it, saying, "I've got my eye on this location."

Upon seeing this location, Yu Bo frowned.

"What, is it difficult?" Wang Chaoyang asked.

Yu Bo was somewhat embarrassed and didn't know what to say for a moment. After stammering for a while, he finally spoke: "These shops are all doing good business and have been open for many years, so they might not be easy to acquire. As for this courtyard?"

"What happened to the yard?" Wang Chaoyang asked, his eyes wide.

"The owner of this courtyard is not someone to mess with," Yu Bo said.

Wang Chaoyang frowned: "Who is he?"

"The courtyard owner's daughter is a direct disciple of the Palace Master of the Longevity Palace," Yu Bo said.

After pondering for a moment, Wang Chaoyang said, "If we don't buy this courtyard, then let's buy the five shops next door. Chief Yu, can you afford to buy them?"

"I'll do my best," Yu Bo said through gritted teeth.

"Money is not a problem, we can even pay one or two times the market price, the key is to act quickly," Wang Chaoyang said.

Hearing this, Yu Bo breathed a sigh of relief: "Don't worry, Chief Wang, I'll go and talk to the owners of these shops right away."

After strolling around the streets of Heima Town for a while, Wang Chaoyang returned to Yuelai Inn.

"Boss, someone has been waiting for you for a long time and insists on seeing you," a gang member said to Wang Chaoyang.

"Where is he?" Wang Chaoyang asked.

"He's sitting right there in the lobby," a gang member said.

Wang Chaoyang then walked into the inn's lobby and saw an elderly man with white hair sitting at a table drinking wine.

Wang Chaoyang walked over to the old man and sat down directly opposite him.

Upon seeing Wang Chaoyang sit down, the old man's hand, which had been holding a wine cup, froze in mid-air: "Who are you?"

"Didn't you want to see me? What, you don't recognize me?" Wang Chaoyang said.

The old man sized up Wang Chaoyang: "You're Wang Chaoyang from the White Tiger Gang?"

"It is indeed the Venerable One." Wang Chaoyang nodded.

Snapped!

The old man slammed the wine glass down on the table with a loud bang, spilling a lot of wine.

Upon seeing this, Wang Chaoyang's expression turned slightly cold.

"Chief Wang, I am Li Yong, the leader of the Ten Thousand Beasts Gang. I'm here to deliver a message from the leader of the Ten Thousand Beasts Gang to you," Li Yong said condescendingly.

"What did you say?" Wang Chaoyang asked curiously.

"What our leader wants to tell you is: your White Tiger Gang has been in Black Horse Town for too long, it's time to leave. The wind is a bit strong in Black Horse Town at night, it might disturb your sweet dreams," Li Yong said slowly.

"Since the wind is a bit strong in Black Horse Town at night, and you members of the Beast Gang are afraid of having your sweet dreams disturbed, I've taken the liberty of giving you a piece of land in Cangxi Town. You can move your entire gang there. Cangxi Town has mild weather, and the night breeze is even gentler, which will help you sleep even better," Wang Chaoyang said with a smile.

"You!" Li Yong was somewhat exasperated. "Chief Wang, we're all smart people. Is there any need for me to spell things out?"

"What did you say? What else did you just say?" Wang Chaoyang asked, feigning surprise.

Seeing Wang Chaoyang's expression, Li Yong clenched his fists, really wanting to punch him.

"Chief Wang, we're all gang members. If a gang brought over a hundred people to Cangxi Town and stayed there, what would you think?" Li Yong asked indignantly.

"What can I think? They can stay as long as they want. Do you think I can control their personal freedom? Cangxi Town isn't just mine," Wang Chaoyang said, feigning ignorance.

"Alright, alright, it seems Chief Wang really wants to break ties with us." Li Yong said anxiously.

"Chief Li, what exactly are you trying to say? I feel like you're talking nonsense," Wang Chaoyang said with amusement.

boom!

Li Yong slammed his fist on the table in front of him, instantly smashing it through: "Boss Wang, there are already two gangs in Black Horse Town. There's no room for a third. If you stay here any longer, remember to lock your doors when you sleep tonight and keep a close eye on things. Don't sleep too soundly, or you won't see the sun rise the next day."

"Are you threatening me?" Wang Chaoyang said disdainfully.

"I'm not threatening anyone, I'm just stating a possible fact," Li Yong said calmly.

"Chief Li, you overestimate yourselves. With your bunch of chickens and dogs, the people behind me could wipe you out with a single finger," Wang Chaoyang mocked.

Hearing this, Li Yong looked up in surprise and glanced around. Finding no danger, he regained his composure and asked, "Who's behind you?"

"Just a nobody in the History Realm, not worth mentioning," Wang Chaoyang said casually.

"Who is it?" Li Yong asked fiercely.

"Zhang Jianyun, a historical figure," Wang Chaoyang said calmly.

As soon as he said this, Zhang Jianyun, who was far away in Cangxi Town, received a system notification.

"You have received hostility from the leader of the Beast Gang in Black Horse Town."

Upon receiving the notification, Zhang Jianyun was first taken aback, then overjoyed: "As usual, Wang Chaoyang's activities in Black Horse Town are working."

"Zhang Jianyun?"

Upon hearing the name, Li Yong felt a surge of inexplicable hatred and began searching his memory for the name, but he couldn't recall it at all.

"Where is he from?" Li Yong asked.

"I am from Cangxi Town," Wang Chaoyang said proudly.

"You've returned from your studies abroad?" Li Yong asked in surprise.

"No, I was born and raised in Cangxi Town." Wang Chaoyang was even more proud.

"How come I've never heard of such a person before?" Li Yong was somewhat confused.

"He's not even twenty years old yet, it's normal that you don't know him," Wang Chaoyang said casually.

"What?!" Li Yong was utterly shocked. "He broke through to the Historical Realm before he was even twenty? There's such a person in Cangxi Town?"

"Do you think I would lie to you? If I didn't have someone like this backing me up, would I dare bring my men to Black Horse Town?" Wang Chaoyang said smugly.

"This—" For a moment, Li Yong's heart was filled with turbulent emotions. He felt that the sky over Black Horse Town was about to collapse.

"Chief Wang, I'm sorry for offending you today. I'll treat you to a meal another day to make amends. I'll take my leave now." Li Yong said, turning and leaving without waiting for Wang Chaoyang's reply.

He needed to rush back to the Ten Thousand Beasts Gang's headquarters to inform the gang leader that the White Tiger Gang had a figure from the Shi Hai realm in charge.

I like the Ten Thousand Swords Master.
