Cultivating 100000 Years

Walking into the center of the hall, the first thing Xu Yang saw was a very neat brick bed. The two pairs of wooden shoes were arranged very neatly, and this middle-aged man's clothes weren't too different from those of his men.    

    

The middle-aged man first got on the brick bed, then knelt down in front of the square table. Beside him was a middle-aged woman who was kneeling down to serve him tea.    

    

After finishing everything, the man gently waved his hand and the middle-aged woman left the room on her own. The only ones left were Xu Yang and the middle-aged man.    

    

"To tell you the truth, I am only the ruler of one of the Changle County s.    

    

In the entire Ying State Mainland, there were at least several thousand county cities as large as this.    

    

This is also an important factor for me to rule out your identity as an assassin. If you really are an assassin from the outside world, you wouldn't even stare at me, a small overseer, while trying to assassinate you. "    

    

The middle-aged man smiled bitterly and shook his head. His face was filled with the vicissitudes of life, but there was also a trace of unwillingness and loneliness in his eyes. All of this was captured by Xu Yang.    

    

"To tell you the truth, I'm just an outsider from the end of the wasteland."    

    

After hearing this familiar yet somewhat unfamiliar phrase, the middle-aged man in front of him was shocked. Instinctively, he put down the teacup in his hand and vigilantly observed his surroundings.    

    

"No wonder your strength is so strong. In this endless wasteland, another mysterious expert appeared. A peak expert like him appeared in my residence."    

    

The middle-aged man's face seemed to be filled with shock, but there was also a trace of secret joy. However, it was mostly a kind of apprehension.    

    

"What is it? From the looks of it, you seem to be quite afraid of people from the wasteland! "    

    

"Sir, you might not know this, but there has always been a legend circulating around the entire Eternal Night Empire. The end of the wasteland was a place that was connected to the world outside the Eternal Night Empire.    

    

As a result, those who came from that place were all at the top of their powers! If a faction is able to obtain the support of life outside the borders of desolation, that faction will definitely rise to power in a short period of time. "    

    

"Of course, as the saying goes, a man's wealth is his own crime! "For those who are not powerful enough and have the help of living beings from the outside world, they will be annihilated because of this. They will be surrounded and attacked by the other forces nearby. This is a common occurrence."    

    

When Xu Yang heard this, he revealed a smile: "Don't worry, since I've come to you, it can be considered fate. I will help you get what you want, at least from now on, you won't be this small county governor anymore."    

    

The middle-aged man's eyes lit up, but soon, his expression became lonely again.    

    

"Forget it, I'm just a piece of trash abandoned by the family. Even with the help of a top-notch expert like you, it's impossible for me to return to the core of the family's power."    

    

When Xu Yang heard this, he seemed to have captured some important information.    

    

"Oh, by the way, the sword technique you used before, you said that the cloud is the main inheritance. Could it be that your name is Yun?"    

    

The middle-aged man nodded his head, "The people of the County City call me Master Yun San. In fact, I am the blood of the entire Wang family in the entire continent.    

    

The direct bloodline that Marquis Yun controlled was the actual controller of the entire continent.    

    

I am considered a side branch of the Yun Family. However, back then, when everyone was still young, I was considered one of the most outstanding figures. There was once a sliver of hope that I could get my hands on the throne.    

    

But later, under the pressure of all sorts of disputes, our family was finally defeated and kicked out of the core of our power. In the next few hundred years, we were pushed out by the other branches of the family and divided up all the forces and territories that belonged to us.    

    

Now that I've become a small county governor, this kind of suppression has gradually subsided. Who would even spare a second glance for those branch families that could control the royal family's power?    

    

"So, this is the reason why you have been depressed all day?"    

    

Xu Yang asked Yun San, who was standing in front of him, with a faint smile on his face.    

    

"I am not any conceited person, but you should be able to understand how a person who has reached the peak and seen the vast sky would feel when they returned to the original well."    

    

Xu Yang nodded slightly: "I can understand that, but you have never thought about using your power to take back everything that belongs to you?"    

    

"With me? There was no longer such opportunity because there was a clear rule in the whole of the Battalion Prefecture: the number of private troops that could be raised by a prefectural city could not exceed three hundred.    

    

Whoever surpassed this standard without authorization would become a criminal in the eyes of the law enforcers, and their family would be cleaned up overnight.    

    

Each county city had their own special Law Enforcement Hall, which, to put it bluntly, meant that they were the insiders of the royal family.    

    

Every single county city has a Law Enforcement Hall of at least five thousand people. Although I am the highest ranked officer in name, in terms of strength, Law Enforcement Hall is the true leader, and even the three hundred personal guards under my command do not dare to provoke them. "    

    

"As for the hundred thousand citizens of the county city under my command, they are basically dependent on the expression of the law enforcers. No ordinary person would dare to offend a person with Law Enforcement Hall; even if they are only a lowly soldier with the most ordinary Law Enforcement Hall, they would have the right to be superior."    

    

Xu Yang heard Yun San's words and roughly understood the power structure of Ying State Continent.    

    

"Besides the County City, is there no other power system?" Boss Wang will not directly rule over thousands of counties, right? "    

    

"Of course not, the entire Ying State Mainland has approximately three thousand plus counties. Basically, every twenty to thirty counties, an alliance will be formed, and every dozen alliances will be divided into one region.    

    

And the core branches of the Wang Ancestor were basically the leaders of the strongest forces in each of the dozen or so large regions in the entire Spirit Province.    

    

In this way, the royal family ruled the entire continent.    

    

That's why I said, once you're kicked out of the royal family's core power, it's almost impossible for you to turn the tables.    

    

Because there are too many mountains in front of us, and the foundation that originally belonged to me has been divided, my influence is gone, and this means that I will never have the chance to return to the core of my power. "    

    

Xu Yang shook his head, "According to what you said, all the large regional alliances, and even the large county cities, could it be that there are no conflicts of interest? As long as there's conflict of interest, there must be a need for powerful force to show off your influence, and this is the best way for you to expand your influence! "
