mble. The Mu Guo side would absolutely not allow Jing Lian and Dou Zhao to cause any more major accidents.This is a placeholder for text that will be replaced with actual content.What about her yellow...After Jiang Wang and the others left, the miners slowly gathered.

Hearing the screams of Ge Heng behind him, Zhang Hai's eyelids twitched.

Even Xiang Qian, who usually had nothing to care about in life, started to feel nervous.

No matter what, watching an extraordinary cultivator being beaten down in front of me, one couldn't help but feel a stir within their heart.

Only Hu Shaomeng controlled his expression well and couldn't see through his state of mind.

It was still the same meeting room, but this time Jiang Wang sat in the main seat.

Things are out of order.

Both Chuanzi and Xiaoxiao also followed over, brewed tea for everyone, and stood in the room waiting for orders.

“Please sit down,” Jiang Wang said lightly, then looked at Hu Guan: “Old man, please sit down too.”

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

"Oh, oh!" Hu Guanxi didn't come to his senses for a long time and sat stiffly on half of his buttocks.

Hu Shaomeng glanced at the other two extraordinary cultivators, then sat down first, his posture relaxed.

As soon as Xiang went forward and touched the chair, he collapsed like mud. Zhang Hai, on the other hand, sat upright with a tense expression.

But Jiang Wang's next question almost made them jump.

“Tell me, how did Xie Hao die”

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Before the Hu family mine, there were four extraordinary cultivators stationed there. The one who left was named Xie Hao.

That is to say, the original owner of the small courtyard where Jiang Wang now lives.

As soon as this question was asked, the entire hall was filled with astonishment.

Xiao Xiao bit her lower lip hard, which kept her from making a sound.

In the mining circles, it has always been said that Xie Hao was frightened in a transaction over half a year ago and left without saying goodbye.

This seems reasonable.

But they couldn't explain one problem.

Since the mine is so dangerous, how could people like Ge Heng, who have deviant desires and crave pleasure, or Zhang Hai, who are obsessed with alchemy and aspire to reach the pinnacle in one step, remain there unharmed

One and a half Dao Yuan stones per month, who would dare to risk everything for that Perhaps a cultivator who is weary of life and indifferent to danger wouldn't mind the risks, but he also wouldn't care much about Dao Yuan stones.

Hu Shaomeng suddenly returned, saying he wanted to shut down the mine. Besides Ge Heng asking why it was so early, no one else had any objections.

They had a tacit understanding beforehand.

It is this tacit understanding that is the problem.

Ignoring the exchange of glances among these people, Jiang Wang directly stated: "Don't try to deceive me."

“My purpose for being here is, I believe, quite clear to all. Though the Chongxuan family is wealthy and powerful, and thus unconcerned with the loss of a single Qingtian Stone vein, this does not mean they tolerate being fooled or deceived.”

Remember, for the Zhuanxia, the Tianqing Stone vein doesn't matter. What matters is not being deceived.

Jiang Wang's eyes swept over these extraordinary cultivators: "Well then, who will speak first"

By this time, he had already shown his prowess, and the power of the Chongxuan family was needless to say. Though his gaze was calm, it pressed down on everyone, seemingly carrying the weight of a thousand jun.

"Messenger," Hu Shaomeng forced a smile, trying his best to maintain his composure: "The situation with this matter is actually..."

"You don't have to say anything yet." Jiang Wang raised his hand, cutting him off.

With his palm facing up, he gestured to Zhang Hai with a welcoming hand: "Zhang Hai, you go first."

“Huh Uh.” Zhang Hai was suddenly called, and jumped in surprise: “This…”

He didn't need to look to know that, at this moment, Hu Shaomeng's gaze was undoubtedly fixed on him.

"No rush, think it over slowly. Think about Ge Heng."

Since he had decided to keep Ge Heng, he might as well use him as a target to kill the chicken and scare the monkeys, intimidating the remaining people.

This is based on an absolute advantage in strength.

Even if these extraordinary cultivators were to swarm him, Jiang Wang would still be able to crush them.

Although Hu Shaomeng also possessed the cultivation of the Heaven-Piercing Realm, there was a vast chasm within that same realm. He was confident he could suppress this person.

Firstly, he made them feel comfortable to speak freely, but when Hu Shaomeng tried to speak, he stopped him and instead let Zhang Haixian speak. This was nothing more than a small tactic to strengthen his authority and control the situation.

He wasn't very familiar with these things before, but after spending time with Chong Xuan Sheng, he gradually understood them.

The reason Zhang Hai was chosen as the breakthrough point was that in Jiang Wang's view, among these extraordinary cultivators present, this person had the weakest character.

Putting all hope of instant success into elixirs, yet failing to put in any real effort, only making insignificant contributions.

>

Eking out a living in the mines, barely scraping by on half a Dao Yuan Stone each month to invest in alchemy elixirs. Furnace after furnace, day after day. This obsession felt more like an escape, a kind of self-hypnosis.

Though it may seem like one has firm goals and pursuits, they are actually not living as clearly as someone who has given up.

No matter how they appear on the surface, these people are fundamentally weak at heart.

Jiang Wang said slowly, "I am a kind person by nature. But when I work for the Chongxuan family, sometimes I may have to be ruthless. After all, I eat their food and serve them faithfully. What do you think"

"Yes...yes."

Zhang Hai lowered his head, his expression struggling.

But it was clear to everyone that he couldn't stay silent for long.

"Let me tell you the truth, Xie Hao was killed by me!" Hu Shaomeng suddenly spoke up.

Jiang Wang quietly looked at him for a while, then turned her head and said, "Everyone else go out."

As everyone streamed out, soon only Jiang Wang and Hu Shaomeng remained in the room.

As soon as I sat down, I was seated on the right of the first person.

Each with their own thoughts, they stood facing each other from afar.

Here's the translated content:

“I’ve been waiting for you to tell me yourself.”

"You know, I could have separated you all and questioned each of you individually. Someone would have eventually cracked under pressure," Jiang Wangxian started. "But I don't want to create an atmosphere of interrogation. I wouldn't treat you like criminals."

>

"After all, the Hu family is the operator responsible for managing Xuan's business here. We have been cooperating for a long time. Despite what happened to the mineral veins, I still have expectations for you."

He stared at Hu Shaomeng: "So, is there anything you want to tell me"

>

"Thank you for your understanding," Hu Shaomeng gave a wry smile and then said, "I killed Xie Hao out of necessity. He was in charge of guarding the mine, but instead of being loyal to his duty, he helped outsiders steal the azure cloud stone."

“The messenger should know the preciousness of Tianqingyun stone, its production is very limited. Even at the peak production year for this large Tianqing stone vein, only six were produced. And Xie Hao alone has stolen a full thirteen! You have all seen how negligent the other extraordinary cultivators are, they are utterly useless. While I was away, Xie Hao used his unique techniques to plunder the veins extensively, leading to the premature depletion of the Tianqing stone vein. By the time I discovered it, it was too late.”

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

“Everything I’ve said is supported by evidence, and the mine records for Hu's Mine are meticulously kept. The envoy can check them at any time. My previous concealment was due to fear of punishment and reluctance to face it. But you said, should he be killed”

Hu Shao Meng spoke very thoroughly, and seemed very sincere. After he finished speaking, as if relieved of a burden, he said: "Of course, now that you are the envoy here, you have full authority. If you represent Chong Xuan's family and make any arrangements, Shao Meng will take full responsibility for his actions."

The accounts he mentioned were with Hu, and Jiang Wang had already secretly looked through them, so there was naturally nothing wrong.

Or, even if there are problems, it's not easy for people to see them.

At this moment, Jiang Wang remained silent and simply asked, “Who do you mean by outsiders”

His decision to reveal his identity directly stemmed from two key reasons: first, he wanted to apprehend Ge Heng on the spot; second...

Hu Shaomeng shut down the mine and drove away the extraordinary cultivators upon his return. In Jiaccheng, Xi Zichu, the young master of the Xi family, guessed who he was at first glance; concealing his identity was no longer meaningful.

Instead, he needed to display the identity of a heavy Xuanjia emissary to calmly control the situation. Once again, he turned passivity into initiative.

Hu Shaomeng hesitated for a moment and said, "Judging from the current situation, it should be the Xi family in Jiacheng. But I can't be completely sure."

"Evidence"

“I also found out later. Xie Hao worked for the Xi family before coming to the mine. And through the Xi family's channels, there was news about the Tianqingyun stone being leaked.”

“The clues are pretty clear. Why can't you be completely sure”

Hu Shaomen chuckled wryly, "The whole city of Jiaceng is surnamed Xi. I have to be cautious."

Could it really be the Xi family who did this to Xi Zi Chu

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

The Xi family, who controls Jia City, cannot tolerate the Qingniu Town under their rule being controlled by other forces. After Xi Zi Chu received support from Dong Wanggu, they finally had the confidence to stand up against the Chongxuan family. They couldn't hold back any longer

This seems reasonable, but in reality it doesn't hold up.

By gradually exhausting the ore veins, leading the Zhenxuan family to abandon Qingyang Town of their own accord. It's a way to achieve the goal without directly clashing, something that can be done subtly behind the scenes.

But this caused dissatisfaction among the Chongxuan family. Was it really worth it

Seeing Jiang Wang remained silent for a moment, Hu Shaomeng asked again: “Now that the Tianqing Stone mine is depleted, the responsibility can be investigated gradually. However, keeping so many people idle is a waste. In my opinion, shouldn't we close the mine first”

This suggestion is also very reasonable.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

But Jiang Wang resolutely refused: "Isn't there still half a year of production Shutting down the mine now would leave those miners without work for a while."

"Although there's still six months of production left, the azure jade can no longer be mined. This place holds no value for the Chongxuan clan anymore." Hu Shaomeng looked troubled, but he continued, "However, the envoy is in full charge here, so whatever decision they make will stand."

Then listen to me.

“Nature's messenger has the final say. Besides, the conditions on the mine are harsh, and after the messenger finishes investigating the clues, it's better to return to Qingniuzhen with Hu along. That way, I can fulfill my duty as a landlord.”

"There's no need for that. As cultivators, we can practice anywhere."

“The envoy is truly a model for us all. However…” Hu Shaomeng continued, “This place is rather remote after all. If there’s any news from Jiacheng, we probably won't be the first to know about it while we're at the mine.”

"Isn't there still young master Hu here" Jiang Wang picked up his teacup casually: "Why don't you go back to rest first And by the way, keep an eye on Jiacheng's movements for me."

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Hu Shaomen remained composed, merely saying, “Very well, very well. Then I shall take my leave.”

"No thanks."

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Watching Hu Shaomeng's departing figure, Jiang Wang seemed thoughtful.

Are you suggesting that I leave the mining area attacked with his current condition, he probably couldn't win.Only then did he set up three rabbit burrows, only then did he move the rouge mirror, hiding it in the midst of bustling city life. He pl...
