Chen Jiuge, dressed in white and holding a folding fan, looks like a handsome young man. He rarely strolls on the street to relax himself.

"Anything fun or delicious lately?"

Yue Meng, who was holding Chen Jiuge's hand, tilted her head and said, "I'm not sure about the fun ones, but I seem to have some impression of the delicious ones."

"There's a shop in the east that specializes in roasting snakes. The taste is excellent. Although it's just a small stall, the income is not worse than some medium-sized hotels!"

"The bird's nest in the west is also very refreshing. There are also some special delicacies in the north, but not all monks can eat them."

"What about the south?"

"South?" Yue Meng thought for a while, and finally shook her head slowly.

“Originally there were a few stalls selling delicious spiritual food in the south, but during this period, the Tianmen cultivators you mentioned have poured in, and many independent cultivators can’t continue their business. The ones with the best business are among them.”

"Can't do it? Didn't Mo Ming manage it?" Chen Jiuge said with some dissatisfaction.

Yue Meng curled her lips and said, "Mo Ming is only a celestial immortal. Although Bai Wei has broken through to the golden immortal, he is still far from being able to manage those foreign cultivators!"

Yue Meng was right. Bai Wei's old jade dragon broke through after the restrictions of the golden desert were lifted. However, its breakthrough speed was not as fast as that of the nightmare dragon. It broke through after several days of settling down!
Although Bai Wei has become a Golden Immortal, his personality has not changed, and his attitude towards the people in Xingyue City has not changed at all.

For Bai Wei, who has lived in the Jade Dragon Secret Realm since birth, the days in Star Moon City were probably his best time. The people and beasts he met during that time were also his only friends!
"Then let's go to South Street and take a look!" Chen Jiuge closed the folding fan in his hand and planned to go and see the situation.

South Street
Originally, the South Street of Xingyue City was a relatively prosperous street, which was mainly populated by medium-sized vendors and some independent practitioners with unique skills.

The most high-end restaurant in the city also stands here. Chen Jiuge opened this place and did not treat Shui Bing's subordinates as outsiders.

But there is always a gap between reality and imagination!

In Chen Jiuge's fantasy, these cultivators can practice peacefully after entering South Street. Even if they don't like practicing, they can find things they like and integrate well with Xingyue City.

But in fact, Chen Jiuge’s idea was too beautiful!
Many cultivators relied on their age and seniority to bully others, thinking that Chen Jiuge was just a junior and did not take him seriously at all.

"Hey, hey, hey, you haven't paid yet?" Four big men with flesh on their faces, who looked like physical trainees, walked out of a tavern arm in arm.

The owner of the tavern, a monk who looked quite old, followed behind and shouted anxiously.

The amount of spiritual food consumed by these four people is not a small amount, almost equivalent to half a month's income!

One of the big men raised his eyebrows and said indifferently, "Give money? Why don't you just ask the city lord? We are all family members, so he won't be stingy with this little bit, right?"

The other three big men laughed and said, "That's right, what's wrong with showing respect to your seniors?"

The boss had a bitter look on his face and opened his mouth, not knowing what to say.

He turned his head to look at the Star-Moon Guards patrolling the streets, trying to find help, but Zhan Ge was not there. How could these Star-Moon Guards, who were nothing more than little immortals, dare to care about what these immortals did!
"Interesting, they're treating me like an ATM machine!"

Chen Jiuge, who had just arrived, was so angry that he laughed at the scene in front of him. If all of Shui Bing's subordinates were this kind of people, maybe he really should reconsider his cooperation with her!

Now that Chen Jiuge has cooperated with the Nightmare Clan, he has a certain degree of confidence!

Just as Chen Jiuge was about to step forward, a female cultivator with a bun on her head jumped out from the crowd, her petite face flushed with anger: "Hengli, you are really embarrassing us!"

"Huh? Tong Qing, this is none of your business, don't meddle in other people's business!" Hengli threatened.

"You are destroying our image. Either you put down the money today or you fight with me!" Tong Qing said decisively.

"A fight?"

Hengli looked at the three brothers around him and said confidently: "Tong Qing, I am indeed no match for you alone, but now there are four of us, you are asking for this!"

After Hengli finished speaking, he chose to take action directly without caring that this was a street!

Before the vast amount of energy and blood could rise, a cold black figure appeared silently behind Hengli, with a short knife flashing with cold light placed on Hengli's neck.

"I'm very curious, does Lady Jiuyin know that her subordinates are of this kind?"

"who are you?"

Although someone held a knife to his neck, Hengli still looked confident and extremely arrogant.

"Me? Am I not the younger city lord you were talking about? You don't even know me, yet you dare to use my reputation?" Chen Jiuge said, suppressing his anger.

"Haha, what's the problem? Don't think that you can climb over our heads just because you have made some contributions. We are Lord Jiuyin's most loyal subordinates!" Hengli sneered.

"Really? Then let me see to what extent Lord Jiuyin can do for you!"

Chen Jiuge waved his hand, and the black shadow behind him received the signal. The dagger in his hand swung rapidly, and in just a moment, four cultivators who were no more than one-flower celestial beings were lying on the ground.

All the tendons and bones in their bodies were cut, and a strange energy prevented the immortal bodies from repairing. The four people of Hengli could only lie limply on the ground.

"You dare to attack us, you are finished, you."

Chen Jiuge frowned. The black shadow understood very well and cut off the tongues of the four people.

"Pass on my order. If something like this happens again, all the offending monks will be detained!"

"Detain all? I want to see how a young man like you can detain me."

There was a Golden Immortal who couldn't sit still and planned to come out in person to give Chen Jiuge a warning.

"Golden Immortal?" Chen Jiuge's expression became slightly solemn, but only for a moment!
"Senior, are you planning to be shameless?" Chen Jiuge asked rudely.

"Shame on you, youngster. You should understand that you should respect the strong!"

The Golden Immortal was not polite either, and directly suppressed Chen Jiuge with a palm!
At this moment, Chen Jiuge instantly reached a small deal with the Nightmare Clan.

"sizzle"

A strange hissing sound was heard, and a nightmare that looked like a praying mantis appeared in front of Chen Jiuge. With a light slash of two blade arms, two deep knife marks that could be seen to the bone appeared on the palm of the Golden Immortal.

A black gas continued to drill into the wound along the black air.

"Nightmare? You actually colluded with outsiders?" Jin Xian withdrew his hand and looked at the mantis nightmare in front of him with shock and a hint of joy.

Chen Jiuge raised a disdainful smile: "No problem!"

The mantis-like Nightmare shook his blade arm and said hoarsely: "Don't underestimate us. Although our cultivation is all obtained through devouring, which is not very consistent with ourselves, in your eyes, we should also be considered strong in the same realm!"

"Then help me get rid of him, no problem!" Chen Jiuge said lightly.

"Huh? Solved? Aren't you allies?" Mantis Nightmare said in surprise.

"Why are you talking so much nonsense? Your clan leader asked you to come here, so you should obey my orders!" Chen Jiuge said somewhat dissatisfiedly.

After laughing twice with unclear meaning, Mantis Nightmare stepped forward and said, "Well, according to what you humans say, you should be my employer now. Don't worry, I will follow your orders!"

"So, this guy in front of you who looks pretty good, are you going to surrender yourself, or let me cut you into small pieces?"

Thick black gas spread out from under Mantis Nightmare's feet. Although his body was not very tall, it looked like an indestructible mountain in the eyes of Jinxianhe Mountain. The hideous face of this cultivator before his death also appeared behind him.

A trace of cold sweat dripped down his forehead unconsciously, and Heshan said in a deep voice: "Chen Jiuge, are you really going to collude with outsiders to deal with your own people?"

"Outsider? Our own? You'd better survive first!" Chen Jiuge shook his head slightly.

"Hey, old man, you've almost finished what you said, pick me up"

"enough!"

An angry voice came from the void!
Shui Bing and Jiuying were the first to step out of the void, followed by a large group of young cultivators who were going out for the first time.

"Who allowed you to kill each other?"

"Sir, you have to help me. He relied on some of his merits and colluded with Nightmare to deal with his own people!" Heshan was the first to complain.

Shui Bing looked at He Shan coldly and said, "What do you mean by relying on a little bit of merit? What do you mean by colluding with outsiders?"

"Heshan, I remember that you are also the commander in charge of an area, right? I have sent you all the commander-level messages!"

Heshan argued, “Sir, how could we possibly cooperate with Nightmare.”

Looking at Chen Jiuge with a sinister look on his face, Heshan said maliciously: "He is definitely controlled by the nightmare. How can a mere celestial being conquer such a large territory!"

"Snapped"

Shui Bing slapped the idiot to the ground, looked around in the air, and said calmly: "Is there anyone who thinks the same as this idiot?"

As soon as he finished speaking, dozens of figures suddenly appeared in the air which was originally empty. These were all the Golden Immortal subordinates that Shui Bing had cultivated and subdued over the years.

"Your Excellency is overthinking. We are not the fool like Heshan!" The monk in colorful clothes holding a folding fan sneered.

"That's right, most of my subordinates didn't cause any trouble. The ones who caused the trouble were all Heshan's subordinates!"

After listening to everyone talking at once, Shui Bing waved his hand and said, "I don't care what you did in the past. Now is not the same as before. Xingyue City was conquered by Chen Jiuge alone. I didn't give him any support."

"Bai Lian knows this."

Bai Lian, who was wearing a white dress and looked like she didn't want anyone to approach her, nodded and said coldly, "That's true."

"So, I don't want some people to seek personal gain here by following me for a long time. Everyone knows what the situation is like outside now."

"This is the place I chose for my training. You should understand my rules."

"I will follow your orders, sir!"

"Well, let's break up then."

After waving away the Golden Immortal, Shui Bing turned to look at Chen Jiuge, a hint of apology appeared on the corner of his mouth and said: "I'm sorry, these people have been outside for too long, and now they are different from before."

Most of these subordinates were personally trained at the Jiuying base, but there were also some like Heshan who were subdued halfway!
There is at least one in ten thousand cultivators who has cultivated to the Golden Immortal level and can still succumb to violence. You can imagine what kind of character Heshan has.

"When I came here, Song Bei and Wu Tian had already told me the general situation. Are these nightmares really not a problem?"

Mantis Nightmare waved his blade arm in dissatisfaction and said, "Sir, although your cultivation is very high, you cannot just rely on your high cultivation to arbitrarily manipulate us!"

"We, the Nightmare Clan, value integrity the most. No, all Chaos creatures value integrity. If you don't have integrity, then you can't survive in Chaos!"

"Is there such a saying?" Chen Jiuge said with some surprise.

Mantis Nightmare said in a low voice: "Of course, during the Chaos, we need to sacrifice food to more powerful races to maintain our protection. My family was sacrificed in this way!"

Chen Jiuge didn't know how to comment. After all, he and Meng Yan were partners now: "My condolences!"

"It's okay, I can't really remember it!" Mantis gave a provocative smile.

Although I know that when a Nightmare Devouring Monk gains supernatural powers, he will be affected by the personality of the monk he devours, but in his current state, shouldn’t he be devouring the mantis?

Could it be that there are funny people among mantises?

"I still need to make arrangements for these children. Xingyue City should be managed by your people. With my orders, they will not resist!"

Shui Bing interrupted Mantis's cute act.

"it is good!"

After Shui Bing left, Mantis retracted his gaze and stared at Chen Jiuge with his almond-shaped eyes, saying, "Although I didn't kill that old guy, you still have to pay me for my efforts this time!"

"I know, half. It was agreed upon at the beginning that as long as I made the attempt but failed, I can only take half of the reward!" Chen Jiuge nodded.

"Half, damn it! That old guy is obviously very weak. If I only have ten breaths, I can definitely cut him into eight pieces. It's so damned!"

Ignoring Mantis's muttering, Chen Jiuge returned to his previous expression, smiling and pulling Yue Meng away.

As time passed, the Golden Desert began to become lively.

Due to many strange reasons, after the frontier area and the real world merged, many large sects did not send their powerful people to take over.

Coupled with the existence of a large number of nightmares in the Golden Desert, the Golden Desert, which was once a popular commodity, has become a hot potato.

The biggest force standing in this hot potato is Xingyue City.

After cooperating with Nightmare, and with Shui Bing's full support, Chen Jiuge spent quite a bit of time and was finally able to barely command that group of unruly guys.

After showing the outside world the cooperation between Star-Moon City and Nightmare, Chen Jiuge opened Star-Moon City to the outside world.

As long as you come to Star Moon City, Nightmare will not attack you!
For this condition, Chen Jiuge reluctantly paid the price of a large number of spirit beasts.

I still remember Mengze who received the spirit beast. As a Daluo, he jumped up when he saw the spirit beast for the first time and almost convulsed with surprise.

"I really spent a lot of money this time, it's not a loss!"

Starting trade is something that must be done, and there is no alternative!
Although the resources in the Golden Desert are abundant, due to environmental reasons, these resources are more inclined towards earth and fire, which is very unfriendly to other monks.

Chen Jiuge's own life path is also the path of wood, so obtaining resources of other attributes is already an urgent matter. (End of this chapter)
