    Turning back to the shore, Pei Yuan left the small boat to the three old fishermen, and left after the latter thanked them a thousand times and kowtowed endlessly.

    From the mouth of the old fisherman, Pei Yuan learned a lot about Hailan Sword Sect.

    "There are five normal tax collections in a year, not including the underlings who collect all kinds of exorbitant and miscellaneous taxes under clever names, which is outrageous!"

    "This mansion is all about Cao Zhengxiong's monopoly, and I am the only one who respects me! Cao Zhengxiong is just domineering, and he is just taking advantage of the common people, and he is not rebelling. How can the court easily offend a top-notch man?"

    "Exhausting the financial resources of a family to support one person's enjoyment, if this is not a god, who is a god?"

    "The gods should live in the sky, why should they stay on the earth and suffer?"

    Pei Yuan whispered to himself, and walked towards Hailan City with faster pace.

    Hai Lan City is not a prefectural city.

    This place was originally just a small place, and the reason why it has developed and grown is entirely because Cao Zhengxiong established the sect's resident there.

    ?Since Cao Zhengxiong achieved a change of blood, he overwhelmed everything, recruited a group of new disciples every one or two years, and the sect continued to grow, until decades later, it finally became a city of its own.

    The resident population of Hailan City is about 70,000 to 80,000, which doesn't seem like a lot of people, but more than half of the rich and powerful families in this mansion, official families, and martial arts families all set up properties in the city and settled down.

    Its bustling and lively level can be imagined.

    With the existence of Hailan City, what is the name of Fucheng?  Who cares?

    Even leaving aside the Sword Saint Cao Zhengxiong, the Hailan Sword Sect is a real behemoth, known as eight hundred disciples, all of whom are masters.

    In fact, the number of disciples Cao Zhengxiong recruited in fifty-five years is more than eight hundred now?

    It's just that Cao Zhengxiong set the school rules, the Hailan Sword Sect doesn't support useless people, the strong stay, and the mediocre get out, so every year there will be martial arts competitions, only 800 people will be left.

    "He is still good at business."

    Pei Yuan sighed.

    Cao Zhengxiong's 100th birthday is coming soon, as one of the top three masters in the world, stomping his feet can cause shocks in the world, not to mention the big names in Hailan Mansion rushing to congratulate him, even martial arts from other prefectures and counties  The people also worked tirelessly and came here through mountains and rivers.

    How can a hundred-year-old Yipin master be called a martial arts legend.

    Everyone knows that because of Cao Zhengxiong's status, there must be many masters of the rivers and lakes present, and many warriors are unwilling to miss this grand event.

    Walking on the official road leading to Hailan City, Pei Yuan can see people in the rivers and lakes galloping past with whips and horses, and there are also some warriors like Pei Yuan who drive with their feet.

    Some people even worked hard on the road, performing lightness kung fu, and were faster than anyone else.

    These people are still late.

    Many warriors set off early and now live in Hailan City.

    Everyone else was in a hurry, but Pei Yuan was not in a hurry. After all, Cao Zhengxiong would be a hundred years old in a day or two.

    Pei Yuan is a polite and respectful person, so whatever he says should make him happier for a while.

    It's just that the journey is so far after all, even if he slowed down, after more than an hour, he still arrived outside Hailan City.

    The gate of the city was full of people, bustling with people, and many martial artists with swords and swords were waiting to enter the city.

    ?With the unruly temperament of the Jianghu people, so many people gathered together without causing a big disturbance, and even waited patiently, and did not forcefully break through with light work, and only the top-notch prestige can be subdued.

    Many Jianghu people who arrived in Hailan City for the first time admired the prosperity and magnificence of this city.

    For a martial artist, if he can live like Cao Zhengxiong for a lifetime, even if it is only for one day, it is worth it.

    Of course, these Jianghu people queuing up to enter the city are just ordinary people, and there is another gate decorated with gold guarded by disciples of the Hailan Sword Sect, welcoming those famous people to enter, and their reputation spreads from time to time.

    "Three Rivers Gang, Congratulations to Chief Yang!"

    "Jiujiang Chen family, the head of the family is here!"

    "Scattered Flower School, Head He is here!"

    Every roll call can cause a commotion among ordinary Jianghu people, their faces are full of envy, and they can't wait to replace it.

    Pei Yuan strode towards the golden gate, and when he reached the gate, he shook his palm, and the disciple guarding the gate became dizzy, and blurted out: "Please come in, honored guest!"

    After Pei Yuan entered the city, a disciple next to him asked suspiciously: "Brother, who is this? He looks a bit unfamiliar!"

    "I don't know either!" the disciple who let Pei Yuan into the city said blankly.Once entering the city, no matter where you stand, you can see a huge manor that is much higher than other buildings, which is where Cao Zhengxiong's mansion is located.

    Pei Yuan glanced at it, then wandered around the street.

    Among the many quacks passing by on the street, many young people who were brought out by their elders to see the world were excited, and it was obviously the first time they encountered such a grand martial arts event.

    Pei Yuan spent three days in the sea with tidal winds, without sleep or food. Although he didn't feel tired or tired physically, his spirit didn't seem to be there either.

    But he still intends to have a good meal first, especially if there is no shortage of good wine.

    It's a pity that because Hai Lan City has poured in too many powerful and powerful people in a short period of time, all the restaurants are almost full.

    When Pei Yuan was about to use his mind-stimulating technique, he suddenly caught sight of a short and fat figure, it was the old master Huang he had seen in that fishing town.

    This old man Huang's face was pale, and he looked a little depressed. He was dragged to the corner of the street by a young man wearing the costume of a disciple of Hailan Sword Sect.

    Pei Yuan casually walked over and stood beside the two of them.

    However, these two people seemed to have not seen it, and they were talking to themselves.

    That old master Huang said: "Nephew, the old man has been restless these two days. He has not eaten well, and he can't sleep well. Please help me to see if there is something wrong with my body!"

    The young man said dissatisfied: "Second Uncle, you came to me for such a trivial matter. Do you know how busy I am these days? I really can't get away."

    "Nephew, I brought you up with my own hands. Second uncle relies on you for everything, so you can't leave me alone!"

    Master Huang pulled the young man's sleeve and said anxiously.

    "I don't care about you?" The young man said with a sullen face, "Second Uncle, you must speak conscientiously. If it weren't for me, how would you have a good life today? And I heard that you fell in love again  A mother and daughter, and they killed someone else's husband?"

    Master Huang was taken aback, and flinched a little: "Your second uncle and I only have this liking!"

    "I don't care about the mother and daughter you want, but can you use your brain? Since you like it, you can secretly send someone to snatch it over. If they are locked in your own room, who will know if it will work? Why bother doing something inexplicable  IOU? Publicize it in public? Will I have a good reputation if I spread it out?"

    "That makes sense!"

    A voice of admiration broke in, and it sounded in the ears of the young man and Mr. Huang: "If you like it, grab it. What's the point of playing tricks? At worst, you will die!"

    The young man and Master Huang were taken aback by the sudden voice, and turned around to look.

    Master Huang pointed to Pei Yuan and said, "You who are you? When did you come?"

    "Just here, don't worry, I didn't hear anything!" Pei Yuan said with a smile.
