Chapter 2116 Exotic Beauty!

Lin Tianhao smiled noncommittally and said:

"If that's what you think, then you can leave."

Fu Junxiao was stunned for a moment, clearly not expecting Lin Tianhao to refuse so decisively.

"Are you really not going to reconsider?"

"What else do I need to consider?" Lin Tianhao asked in return.

Fu Junxiao gritted his teeth and asked, "Then are you willing to take over our Five Peaks Territory?"

"Taking over is possible. I will take over Mo Xue territory, and Dugu Mo Xue will recognize me as her elder brother and even pass on the Dugu Sword Inquiry Technique to me."

"What about you?"

Fu Junxiao looked at Dugu Moxue in disbelief, "Dugu Moxue, you..."

Dugu Moxue nodded slightly, “That’s right. Look at me, have I suffered a loss? I am now the city lord of Moxue City. In just half a year, the population of our Moxue territory has increased from 1.8 million to 2.1 million, and this number is still climbing.”

"Commerce is booming, tax revenue is huge, and the business is thriving. Do you think there's anything wrong with what I'm doing?"

As Dugu Moxue finished speaking, Fu Junxiao fell silent.

After a long while, he looked at Lin Tianhao and said:

"Okay, I'd like that too."

After saying this, Fu Junxiao raised the martial arts manual he had brought with both hands, "Fu Junxiao greets elder brother!"

Lin Tianhao nodded and said with a smile:

"Alright, from today onwards, your Five Peaks Territory will be under my command. You will continue to manage the Five Peaks Territory. I will take action to help you fight against the barbarians' attack and will also send troops to support you."

"Okay, okay, thank you, brother!"

Lin Tianhao smiled with satisfaction. He was now a martial arts grandmaster and should indeed expand his business, but he couldn't be too blatant about it.

Fu Junxiao took the initiative to ask him for help; the timing was just right.

"You go back first. I'll step in if it's crucial," Lin Tianhao said.

"it is good!"

Fu Junxiao didn't suspect anything about Lin Tianhao and left directly.

After Fu Junxiao left, Dugu Moxue frowned and said, "Brother, this matter is a bit risky."

"The Northern Mang Dynasty has not paid any attention to us recently, most likely because they think that our small Mo Xue Territory cannot affect the overall situation."

"At this time, we should build high walls and store up grain. Rash expansion would be very risky."

Lin Tianhao patted Dugu Moxue on the shoulder and said with a smile:

“You’re absolutely right about that. We’ve recovered quite well in the last six months, and we’re even stronger than when Mo Xue Territory was at its peak.”

"But all of this is basically because of me."

"If the Northern Mang Dynasty were to send a martial arts grandmaster to assassinate me, all of this would collapse instantly, wouldn't it?"

Dugu Moxue nodded emphatically and said:

"Yes."

"Although you, sir, have passed down martial arts secrets, some third-rate martial artists have appeared in the military camp. However, their numbers are still too few, and they are almost useless against martial arts masters."

Lin Tianhao shook his head and said:

"I know your concerns, and I have my own considerations as well. Do you really think I have no trump cards at all?"

Hear this.

Dugu Moxue's face showed shock.

Although Lin Tianhao's words were simple, they revealed that he still had a trump card up his sleeve!

"Okay, I will fully support you, brother."

Lin Tianhao nodded. "As for you, you've also accelerated your cultivation. Although you've reached the level of a first-rate martial artist with the help of the Spirit Refining Pearl I gave you, the road ahead is still long. A first-rate martial artist is not enough."

"Yes, elder brother, I have gained some insights from watching you practice your swordsmanship these past few days, and my understanding of the Dugu Sword Inquiry Technique has also deepened."

Lin Tianhao nodded. "Focus on your cultivation. Send five thousand men to support the Five Peaks Territory. It's easy to defend and difficult to attack there. Unless absolutely necessary, I won't personally intervene and cause trouble."

"Row!"

“We’ve been expanding our army quite quickly lately, but since they haven’t been on the battlefield, they’re still lacking in experience. Letting them go out and train is a good idea.”

……

Lin Tianhao dispatched 5,000 men, and the situation in Wufeng Territory has been temporarily stabilized.

Five Peaks Territory is inherently easy to defend and difficult to attack. As long as there are people, it is not difficult to hold it. The main problem is that prolonged attrition will be too much for them to handle.

Most importantly, food, military pay, medicine, and arrows will not be able to keep up.

And so, another three months passed.

During this period, Lin Tianhao provided people and food, and the situation in Wufeng Territory stabilized. Commerce also began to recover, and the overall situation was developing in a better direction.

After a period of arduous training, Lin Tianhao's cultivation level finally reached the mid-stage of the Grandmaster realm.

After reaching the Grandmaster realm, the rate of improvement obviously slows down.

Improving one's cultivation level by a small amount in half a year is already considered astonishing by most people.

But in Lin Tianhao's own opinion, this was indeed a bit too slow.

At this rate, it will take him at least two more years to break through to the Grandmaster level. That's too slow!

If other martial arts masters knew what Lin Tianhao was thinking, they would definitely think he was crazy.

Even after they reach the Martial Arts Grandmaster level, they may not advance even one minor realm in ten years.

To be able to break through from a martial arts grandmaster to a martial arts grandmaster within a span of 60 years is considered exceptionally talented.

Night falls.

As usual, Lin Tianhao continued his cultivation.

however.

Just as Lin Tianhao was about to continue his cultivation, he looked up and gazed outside.

With a wave of hand.

A long sword fell into his hand.

This is a precious sword that Lin Tianhao took from Dugu Moxue. It is called the Po Jun Sword and is a blood-drinking sword that has killed more than a thousand people.

"They were able to detect my arrival; no wonder they dared to support the Five Peaks Territory."

A glamorous woman strode out, each step exuding charm and allure. In particular, the exotic beauty unique to the Northern Wilderness emanating from her held a special allure for Lin Tianhao.

"Beautiful lady, why are you coming into the room of a young man as vigorous as me so late at night instead of sleeping? Are you trying to drain my life force?" Lin Tianhao said.

The alluring woman chuckled lightly, "I'm not some kind of demon, how could I possibly drain your life force?"

Lin Tianhao chuckled, "You're not a fairy? But to me, you're the most cunning of all fairies!"

The alluring woman smiled seductively and said:

“Brother, you’ve crossed the line. If it were just Mo Xue’s territory, I wouldn’t say anything, but you’ve interfered and meddled in the affairs of Wu Feng’s territory, which is wrong of you.”

Lin Tianhao sighed. "So, this beautiful woman came to kill me?"

“I’m reluctant to part with it either. How about… you help us take over Wufeng Territory, and we in Beimang will give you Moxue Territory from now on.”

Lin Tianhao smiled and nodded, saying:

"It's not impossible, but... my Mo Xue territory is still lacking a lord's wife. I wonder what the beautiful lady thinks?"

The alluring woman smiled seductively, "Young master, you came to me not afraid of being drained dry?"
