Seeing Xu Qiu kneeling in front of him, Yao Ruoyu's eyes were slightly dazed. With Yang Yiming's death, the Xu family was destroyed and Luo Jia surrendered. The entire Diaoyu City can be said to have been included in his pocket. Next, he only needs to convince Bai Junru to reign all the local forces in the city.

But then he restrained his mind, reached out to help Luo He up, and said solemnly: "I will rely on the head of the Luo family in the future."

"Lord, you are polite." Luo He nodded.

Seeing Luo He surrendering to Yao Ruoyu, Zhou Zhi and Wang Jin looked at each other unconsciously, their faces were a bit ugly. Bai Qiuyu beside him looked at Yao Ruoyu with complicated eyes, and then turned his eyes to Xu Xuanrong not far away and sighed softly.

Without waiting for the others to react, Bai Qiuyu came out and bowed gently to Yao Ruoyu, and said solemnly: "Although Bai Qiuyu cannot represent the Bai family or Baihe Academy, he supports Brother Yao ascend to the throne of the city lord with his personal strength."

Seeing Bai Qiuyu suddenly appearing out, Yao Ruoyu was stunned, but then he realized that he was fighting for the position of the city lord with his three realms, and naturally there were many thorns. Although Bai Qiuyu intended to support him, he had some concerns. Therefore, he only mentioned himself in his words, but removed the Bai family and Baihe Academy.

But Bai Qiuyu is a member of the Bai family after all. If he really ascended the throne of the city lord in the future, Bai Qiuyu will naturally have the ability to support the Bai family. In this way, only Bai Qiuyu needs to take risks, not everyone in Baihe Academy.

Although he realized it clearly, Yao Ruoyu did not say much, but smiled and reached out to help him, nodding: "There will be a blessing in the future."

After appeased Luo He and Bai Qiuyu, Yao Ruoyu ignored Zhou Zhi and Wang Jin on the side and called Chen Meng directly, asking him to lead someone to seize the Xu family, confiscate the gold, silver and treasures in the mansion, and move them all to the city lord's mansion as funds for this recruitment.

After he finished his order, Xu Xuanrong stepped forward slowly, bowed and smiled and said, "The wild fire thieves outside the city have not yet retreated, and Hezhou City is still surrounded by thieves. Xuanrong wants to abolish the existing defenders and reorganize a guard guard. Commander Zhou and Commander Wang have not healed their old injuries, so it is difficult to deal with the bandits. It is better to temporarily take over the command of Yang Renjie and Fu Feng."

Seeing Xu Xuanrong saying that he wanted to undermine them, Wang Jin's face suddenly turned blue. He bit his steel teeth and wanted to go forward to argue, but Zhou Zhi, who was beside him, directly stopped him, and comforted him with helpless expression.

Now Yao Ruoyu and others have received support from the Luo family and the Bai family. Although they are both in the fourth realm, Yao Ruoyu can compete with the fifth realm and kill Xu Qiu from the fourth realm and eighth level. There is also Luo He and Bai Qiuyu behind the scenes. They cannot compete with him at all. It is better to know some interest and take the initiative to give in to avoid being humiliated in vain.

Seeing Zhou Zhi stopping Wang Jin, Yao Ruoyu felt a little disappointed, but said nothing. He agreed to Xu Xuanrong's request directly, and then left Chen Meng with ten soldiers to seize the Xu family, and he returned to the city lord's mansion with the others.

After returning to the city lord's mansion, everyone discussed the matter of the city guards.

At present, Xu Xuanrong has recruited about 200 people. She does not care about her ethnic origins. Whether it is the Song people, the Jin people, or the survivors of the Liao Kingdom, Xixia, Tubo and other countries, they only need to reach the second level to recruit income. Therefore, although this army has only 200 people, its overall strength is close to the army that was nearly 1,000 when Yang Yiming was in power.

According to Xu Xuanrong's plan, due to Yang Yiming's past exploitation, although the economy of Hezhou and Diaoyu City was greatly hit, the so-called poor mountains and bad waters were many unlucky people. Although the environment here is extremely harsh, because it is located at the junction of the two countries, the customs here are extremely fierce.

However, most of the practitioners have been taken over by the Taoyuan Gang, Wildfire Thieves and other forces, so there will not be too many people left for them. In addition, some people with inferior character need to be excluded, so in the end, her plan is to incorporate a team of 600 people, of which 400 people guard Diaoyu City, and the other 200 people will sit in Hezhou City, and together with the Bai family and Luo family, expel Wildfire Thieves.

Regardless of whether Bai Junru is willing to support Yao Ruoyu as the city lord, his old mind is naturally unwilling to sit on the verge of sight and occupy Hezhou City, so he will definitely agree to take action. With him, Wanyan Ye will have to withdraw from the city no matter how unwilling he is.

After everything was arranged, it was already the lights on. Luo He, Bai Qiuyu, Luo Cheng and others were anxious to go back and prepare, so they immediately said goodbye and left the city lord's mansion.

Seeing that they all left, Yao Ruoyu immediately collapsed in his seat like a deflated ball, and looked at Xu Xuanrong with a wry smile: "Thank you, Mengmeng..."

"What do you thank me?" Xu Xuanrong gave him a blank look, and said, "You did it well yourself. You know what I mean. You deliberately broke into the Xu family and killed someone, forcing Luo He and others to go and persuade him to make peace. Then you throw out the matter of Xu Qiu and Yang Yiming joining forces to kill Luo Qianli, which made Luo He willing to surrender for revenge in a hurry... But I didn't expect that Bai Qiuyu would actually express his support for you."

"I didn't expect it," Yao Ruoyu smiled and said, "But I already have a good impression of this guy. It's great if I can't be enemies with them. And since he is under my command, I will have the opportunity to completely accept Baihe Academy in the future."

"Let's think about how to enhance your own strength first?" Xu Xuanrong glanced at him with a slight sarcastic look. "We are only in the third realm after all. No matter whether you can compete with the fifth realm and kill the fourth realm, in the eyes of many people, we are just a group of children who have not grown up. Only by strengthening our strength can we truly deter these people and completely control the city."

"I naturally know this, but it's not that easy?" Yao Ruoyu spread his hands and smiled bitterly, "The way of practice is to focus on one step at a time. Everyone has a short time to come into contact with practice, and they also need to require a fast level of practice. This requirement... is too difficult, right?"

"At this point of time, it's faster, as long as you can," Xu Xuanmeng took out a beautifully bound gold thread inlaid jade booklet and said calmly, "Look?"

Yao Ruoyu was stunned when he saw this, reached out and took it and opened it. He then raised his eyebrows and said in surprise: "These are..."

With a faint smile, Xu Xuanrong replied: "These are the birthday gifts that Yang Yiming originally planned to give to his godfather Qin Hui. These things were originally responsible for Wu Liang, but now that Yang Yiming is dead, Wu Liang handed all these things to me. No matter what, you are now collecting them, so it is better to hand them over to you to deal with."

With a slight nod, Yao Ruoyu suppressed the turbulence in his heart, opened the booklet in his hand again, and read it carefully.

As one of the two ministers of the Song Dynasty, Qin Hui was powerful and had a lot of followers. Even if Yang Yiming was the other party’s godson, the birthday gift he prepared would not be simple. Even from the perspective of Yao Ruoyu, the successor of the trick, this birthday gift was thick and a bit terrifying.

"Five hundred pieces of Yangyuan Pill, 500 pieces of Ningling Sperm, 500 pieces of Qi-enhancing Sperm, 500 pieces of Soul Tempering Sperm, 10 pieces of Aura Recruiting Yuan Pill..." While silently reciting the details on the first page, Yao Ruoyu felt a little ache in his heart, which was the pain after he was suddenly hit by a large amount of wealth.

The Yuan Yang Dan can warm the dantian of the warrior and eliminate impurities such as true qi; the Qi-enhancing Pill contains a large amount of vital energy. After taking it, the warrior only needs to use the mind method to absorb it to increase his true qi; the Ling Ning San can increase the absorption of spiritual energy by the spirit master in a short period of time, greatly accelerating the spiritual master's level of cultivation; Soul Tempering Sphere can temper the soul of the spirit master and enhance spiritual consciousness.

All of these pills and pills are of great help to practice. It can be said that this is what the people in the Literature and Art Department lack the most. If they can take these things, coupled with the suppression power of the Tongyuan Hall of the Xu family, it will be enough to allow everyone to break through in a short period of time and initially master their own growth strength.

In addition to these pills, Yang Yiming's birthday gift also contains some top weapons and spiritual weapons, as well as many rare antiques. However, since Yang Yiming is dead, these things will naturally belong to him and others.

After thinking for a while, Yao Ruoyu returned the booklet to Xu Xuanrong and pondered: "There is no hurry for the time being. Wanyan Ye has Bai Junru to deal with it, so it should be no problem to wipe out the bandits in the city. Then, next, we need to gain the recognition of the court."

After taking the booklet, Xu Xuanrong nodded: "Anyway, I have discussed it before, so just follow the plan, so... you plan to let them take pills after they have cleaned up the wildfire thieves."

"Well, after all, I haven't really repelled the bandits yet, so I need to tease them and show off my face and show my presence. Otherwise, it will be more difficult to take over military power in the future." Yao Ruoyu nodded slightly, and replied.

"Besides... using pills to break through the realm is not the right way, so you still need to be careful," Yao Ruoyu pondered, "The hall where I killed Xu Qiu is called the Earth Demon Tongyuan Hall, you should recognize it, right?"

"Well, I was quite surprised at that time. I didn't expect that with the financial resources of the Xu family, I could build a Tongyuan Hall," said Xu Xuanrong, "But now that I think about it, this hall should be incomplete, right?"

"Yes, but because of its incompleteness, it gave me the opportunity to transform him," Yao Ruoyu said slowly, "It will take about two days to transform the spiritual array in this hall, eliminate all the earthly evil spirits, leaving only the function of suppressing spiritual energy and helping others stabilize their cultivation."

"Okay, let me leave the matter of expelling wildfire thieves," Xu Xuanrong said with a smile. "After expelling wildfire thieves, we will let everyone take turns to take pills to break through, which will also facilitate the future situation."

Yao Ruoyu nodded and smiled when she heard this, looked at Xu Xuanrong with complicated eyes, and said softly: "Mengmeng, thank you."

"Thank you for hitting you?" Xu Xuanrong gave him a blank look, laughing mockingly, "Besides, I'm not helping you, but the masters of the Literature and Art Department. Don't make yourself too noble. In that case, you will not only exhaust yourself, but also implicate others and feel guilty!"

"Is that right?" When Yao Ruoyu heard what Xu Xuanrong said, he felt a little disappointed. After a few breaths of silence, he smiled bitterly, "There is no way, the personality has been developed, and I can't change it for the time being. Let's do it. I'll go to the Xu family first, and leave the matter here to you."

Waving his hand, Xu Xuanrong said calmly: "I'll leave if I'm not giving it away."

"It's so sad!" Haha, Yao Ruoyu got up and left the lobby, then walked out of the city lord's mansion and walked towards Xu's house.
