Inside the bar.
Neon lights flash.
Charming girls of different skin colors writhe on the stage to the music.
There were people watching all around, some whistled, some cheered, and the atmosphere was fiery.
There was a table of five men and two women near the southwest corner of the bar.
They seemed to be watching the dancers perform, but in fact they were communicating secretly.
"Damn, the Second Ring Road in Xibu City is probably more prosperous than the People's Avenue in Dragon City.
I don't know what the scene will be like in the inner city."
“The inner city is gone” "Captain, why?"
"The inner city is heavily guarded.
We are all outsiders and can easily be targeted and our identities exposed."
"Well, the captain is right, I agree."
"I also agree that we have already found out the general situation of the Chinese League anyway, so there is no need to take any more risks."
These men and women are weird.
By moving each lip, you can convey what you want to say to your companions.
The nearest guest sitting next to him didn't even want to hear the content of their conversation.
"Who would have thought that the foundation of the Chinese League is already comparable to that of our Dragon City?
There is a Jiulijun in the southwest Miao District, occupying the three provinces of Yunnan, Guizhou and Sichuan, and even the Indochina Peninsula was conquered under his command."
"The most unexpected thing is that this Mr.
Jiuli is still that fourth lady."
"Damn, this guy surnamed Li does have some tricks up his sleeve, I can't help but admire him."
"Lu Han, it's a good thing that the Lu family didn't use any tricks on Mr.
Li, otherwise it would have stirred up a hornet's nest and it would have been difficult to end it."
"The fact that the Lu family has not taken action now does not mean that they will always be peaceful.
If we leave for this period of time, the Lu family cannot help but take action.
Then there will be a good show."
"Ning Chengyun.
You kid, don't forget that our seven major families in Longcheng are connected by the same spirit.
We are all closely related.
If our Lu family is in trouble, your Ning family will never be able to survive alone."
"Don't argue, save some energy.
We will split up tomorrow to find out the strength of the three major armies of the Chinese League and the general situation in the southwest.
Take the time to complete the task and go back to resume your duties."
After one of the men glared at several of his companions with warning eyes.
He called the waiter and paid the bill.
Just leave.
"Let's go too" The group of people stood up and quickly left the dance hall.
However, not long after they left, a young man in black leather appeared in the booth next to the group of people.
There is only one guest in this booth.
He looked like a Southeast Asian, with dark skin and in his thirties.
His appearance is very ordinary, but his ears are very big, and he looks a bit like a boy who attracts wealth.
Quite comical.
"Brother Kunlan, have you noticed anything?"
The young man in black sat down.
The Southeast Asian man he called Kunlan smiled and said in less fluent Chinese: "These people are proficient in a certain technique.

They can condense their voices into lines and communicate with each other, so that outsiders cannot hear their conversation at all."
That’s it.
The man's two money-lucky ears actually flapped a few times, and he said proudly, "But, they can't hide it from my ears."
Ten minutes later.
The young man in black stood up and left.
Before leaving, he quietly handed it to the Southeast Asian man named Quinlan.
A thick wad of banknotes.
"Xiaodong, thank you" “A pleasure to work with” When the young man in black walked out of the bar, he looked around with sharp eyes and saw no one approaching.
Then, he took out something similar to a walkie-talkie and shouted in a low voice: "An Ye's subordinate Huo Zi No. 37 reported that the suspicious target came from Longcheng."
The fifth piece of ancient jade appears.
At the same time that Li Ba got the news, Lan Ruoping also received relevant information and hurriedly took Lan Yan and Huangfu Yuxiu to say goodbye and leave.
Although Lan Yan wanted to stay, she couldn't resist her sister-in-law, so she could only tell Li Ba that she would come back tomorrow.
Ancient jade is very important to Li Ba.
Therefore, he is determined to get this ancient jade.
However, not long after, two former brothers-in-law called and told them about Gu Yu's current situation.
There was a lot of chatter on the phone, but in the final analysis there was only one sentence.
The errand entrusted by Li Ba failed to be completed.
If you want to obtain this ancient psychic jade, you must go through bidding.
Of course, there is another way.
As long as Li Ba can convince the seven major families, this ancient psychic jade will naturally be his.
However, according to Shangguan Yiyang, it may be quite difficult.
The reason is simple.
If the magical energy contained in the ancient jade does not exist, and Li Ba offers certain benefits, the seven major families will definitely let it go.
Now, this ancient jade contains spiritual enlightenment energy, which is extremely abundant and can stimulate the talent changes of newly awakened people, which is of great significance.
No family will give up easily Li Ba is very clear about the importance of the so-called spiritual enlightenment energy contained in ancient jade to major families.
After thinking about it again and again, he called Yuan Danqing and invited the head of the Yuan family to come over for lunch.
The intention was simple, he wanted to find out what the Yuan family was saying.
At noon.
The Yuan family father and son came as promised.
Li Ba set up a table in the staff canteen.
All the dishes were from Huameng's specialties, which was very rich.
There were only three of them sitting at the big round table.
There is also Liang Jie serving at the side.
When Li Ba picked up the wine glass.
Yuan Danqing smiled and said: "Brother, let's talk about business first, and it's not too late to drink."
"Okay" Li Ba nodded.
The other party was straightforward, and he did not beat around the bush and told his feelings truthfully.
"Brother Li, I won't go into details about the importance of this ancient psychic jade, but no matter how precious the ancient psychic jade is, based on the relationship between our two families, it is no problem for my Yuan family to withdraw from the bidding, and even spend all the family money on it.
Yuan Danqing expressed his attitude and expressed his willingness to help his brother to take the shot of this ancient jade.
"Thank you very much" Li Ba was overjoyed after hearing this.
With this support, your chances of obtaining ancient jade will be greatly increased.
"Brother, don't thank me yet."
Yuan Danqing shook his hand and began to analyze Li Ba: "Among the ten forces in Dragon City, Wuzong has the strongest background, but this time Daoyingu has already said that he will not participate in the bidding for the ancient psychic jade.
In this way, There are nine left.”
After a pause, he continued: "The Xuanyuan Society and the Illuminati Society are private organizations.

Their financial resources are absolutely incomparable to yours and my seven major families, so they can be excluded."
Li Ba nodded after hearing this.
He understood what this person meant.
The key lies in the seven major families.
"The Ning family has a good relationship with my Yuan family, and Cheng Jin's kid is also very close to me.
Therefore, if I come forward to speak out, the Ning family will probably give in.
Of course, I will also give some blood, so that the Ning family can get some rewards."
"Brother Yuan, don't worry, Li will not be less grateful to you," Li Ba said.
He already had a preliminary plan in his mind to compensate the family that gave in.
Yuan Danqing nodded after hearing this, and then his tone became serious: "I can be sure that the remaining five major families, including the Shangguan family, the proprietors of the auction house, are determined to get this ancient psychic jade and want to persuade them If you give in, your chances are slim.”
"I can give them something that will make them excited in exchange," Li Ba said.
The five Qingming battleships he had stored in the bracelet space were finally put to use this time.
"I believe in my brother's ability" Yuan Danqing nodded, then changed his tone and said: "But, I can tell you for sure, even if you bring out the most precious items, they will not give in this time."
"Why?"
Li Ba couldn't react.
"Uncle Li, the reason is very simple.
Who made you the chairman of the Great Council of the Chinese League?"
Yuan Feng interjected.
However, it was his words that immediately made Li Ba wake up.
"There are no two days in the sky, and there are no two kings in the country."
Yuan Danqing did not mince words at this moment and said bluntly: "Brother, your Chinese Alliance is so large that it has already become a worry for the board of directors.
To be honest, a few days ago, the board of directors has passed a resolution to try to make the Chinese Alliance Become under the command of Longcheng" After a pause, he added: "Of course, the council can't use force against you.
Brother, you dare to go to North China alone with a group of guards and come to Dragon City to do business.
It can be said that a fierce dragon can't cross the river.
Even if there are some noises , but the mainstream opinion of the council is to discuss with you the possibility of the Chinese League joining Dragon City."
Li Ba touched his chin after hearing this but did not express his position.
Longcheng regarded itself as the Chinese orthodoxy and wanted to annex the Chinese League, which did not surprise him.
He could even tell from Yuan Danqing's tone that if the people in power in Longcheng weren't afraid, they would have used tough measures against him.
Instead of allowing him to open a store and do business in the city like now, providing convenience and maintaining a cooperative relationship.
In the final analysis, strength determines everything.
If the Chinese League is weak, the people in power in Longcheng will never give it a chance to sit down and negotiate.
There is nothing wrong with being ambitious.
However, if ambition is used in the wrong place, it may stir up a hornet's nest.
Although Dragon City is powerful, Hua Meng also has its own trump card.
Apart from anything else, the Talisman Master Tower that he spent a huge amount of resources to build was not just for show.
The thirty-six talismans of the Small Zhoutian are engraved on the inside and outside of this tower, which can be defended by the power of the mountains and the earth's veins, and can be attacked by absorbing the free energy of heaven and earth.
It is the most powerful talisman array that Li Ba knows.
Once this tower is activated, the attack power explodes instantly, and even the ninth-level evolution powerhouse cannot withstand it.
As long as Li Ba doesn't nod, anyone who invades the Chinese Alliance will be seeking death.
"Of course, I also know that it is very difficult for me to let the foundation you have worked so hard to build belong to Dragon City."
Yuan Danqing saw Li Ba's face changing and was not sure what he was thinking.
His tone changed and he said, "If we don't talk about surrender, I suggest that I don't need to participate in the bidding this time.
I will wait until whoever wins the prize and use up all the ancient jade."
After the spiritual energy has passed, you can go and discuss it.
As long as you can afford the price, it is not difficult to obtain it."

The idea this person gave him was to retreat in order to advance.
I have to say, this is a good idea.
But Li Ba couldn't wait, or in other words, he didn't want to cause trouble.
"Brother Yuan, there is no room for negotiation for the Hua League to surrender to Longcheng.
The key is how to surrender," Li Ba said with a smile
