"Goodbye." The old man saluted and left the courtyard with the attendant.
Li Mucheng brought the tray back to the room and placed it on the table. He said worriedly to Chen Qing, "The Wei Family's Patriarch's goodwill came too suddenly."
Chen Qing sorted out the memories in his head and said to Li Muzhao, "The Wei family's influence has expanded rapidly over the past few years. Their territory is already adjacent to the Wu family's. If they want to go up the stairs, they must fight with the Wu family."
Li Muhao nodded, "The Changle Street next to the Funing Street belongs to the Wei family."
"So, if the Wei family wants to take over the territory of the Wu family, the first is Funing Street," Chen said.
"Since you killed Xue Shaoliang today, breaking the Long Wind Gang's control of Funing Street, and also cutting off the representative of the Wu Family, there's no one on Funing Street right now. Or rather, you're the owner of Funing Street now, so we can't miss the opportunity."
Chen Qing replied: "But the Wu family is an established power. Although the Wei family has expanded rapidly these few years, they didn't dare to attack them. So they didn't send people to take down Funing Street and instead made friends with me."
Li Muhao said, "You killed Xue Shaori and Xu Lihuan, so the enmity with the Wu family has already been formed. Now that the Wei family has expressed their goodwill towards us, we can't refuse them.
Chen Qing said, "That's how the Wei family planned it."
Li Muhao reacted, "Then wouldn't we be used by the Wei family? "Brother Chen, please think about it. The Wu Clan definitely won't let Forin Street slip away from our hands. They will definitely send people to try to take it back. At that time, we will bear the brunt of their attack!"
Cheng Qing glanced at Li Muhao, "The Wu family will never let us off."
Li Muhao was stunned, and couldn't help but agree with Cheng Qing's judgment, "True."
Cheng Qing smiled and said with a hint of chilliness, "The Wei family is using me, and I can also use the Wei family to support myself. With the Wei family supporting me, if the Wu family wants to make a move against me, they have to be more wary …"
"Taking a step back, even if the Wu Clan were to attack me, the Wei Clan would not sit idly by. Now that the Wei Clan has befriended me, I am friends and allies with them. If friends and allies were in trouble, it would be natural for the Wei family to help. "And once something happens to me and I disappear from Funing Street, they will have to find another reason to compete with the Wu family for Funing Street. It won't be that easy."
Li Muhao didn't say a word, looking at Cheng Qing seriously, not moving an inch.
Cheng Qing smiled. "Why is Brother Li looking at me like that?"
Li Muzhao sighed, "Speaking of which, Brother Chen is about the same age as me. I don't even know what's going on, but you actually managed to figure it all out. This one truly admires you!"
Cheng Qing smiled and did not say anything more. He opened the box that the Wei family sent over and found that it was also a Pei-Yuan Dan. He called Lin Xin over and put the Pei-Yuan Dan into her hands, saying seriously, "Eat this Pei-Yuan Dan, then you will be able to open the door to cultivation and step into the realm of the First Rank!"
Lin Xin let out an "Ah!" with a puzzled expression. She looked at the Pei-Yuan Dan in her hand in doubt, "It's that simple?"
Chen Qing smiled warmly. "For those who are unable to cultivate, stepping into the gate of cultivation is akin to stepping into the realm of a carp leaping over an orchid gate. It is extremely difficult, but for cultivators who have already entered the sect, especially for cultivation clans, it is just a small matter."
