The next day, Hou Yuming's mansion came to Hou Yuming's mansion.

Lin Tiancheng sat in the upper position and frowned and listened to the report of Huo Feng and others. Behind him was Yun Wu standing, pinching his shoulders to eliminate fatigue.

"In your words, this statue of life is likely to be in the city, but our naked eyes are invisible?" Lin Tiancheng asked.

Hearing this, Huo Feng also smiled bitterly, "Sect Master, although it sounds ridiculous,... in fact, it's true. The four of us dug the Qingshan City three feet yesterday, and we didn't even let the smallest gap be explored. However, we have no clues except for the weak breath of life power!"

Hearing this, Lin Tiancheng couldn't help but rub his head in depression. The world is so big that even such things can happen.

"Okay, Elder Ouyang will continue to investigate. Xiaoyao Zun, go to the ruined temple in the west of the city and find a man named Yuntian, and say that I asked you to find him. In the next period of time, you will be responsible for assisting him in completing what I explained!" Lin Tiancheng ordered.

Xiaoyao Zun nodded, and turned around without even asking the reason, and walked towards the west of the city, leaving Lin Tiancheng and others in the mansion.

Lin Tiancheng actually didn't have much hope for Yuntian. Yuntian's affairs were purely a chess move by himself, and it didn't matter even if he failed. When he gained a foothold and sent the people of Tianmen, it would be the time for a good show to be staged.

After Lin Tiancheng conditioned Yun Wu for a while, he took Hou Yuming and Huo Feng and others to split into four groups and continue to search for the whereabouts of the statue of the Life God as if yesterday.

However, although Lin Tiancheng and the others looked around, they still had no clues as usual.

"It's impossible. The Daoyuan Monument has an extremely strong sense of Qingshan City. This means that the statue of the god is in the city, but... Since the statue of the god is in Chengcheng City, why hasn't a trace been found for thousands of years?"

No one can answer his questions about Lin Tiancheng. If you want to know the answer, you have to find it yourself.

Just as Lin Tiancheng was still aimlessly looking for clues, a noise sounded in a shop selling weapons beside him.

"Brother Hu, aren't you killing me? How many times this month has it been, I really can't get it!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a man with a strong aura and peak strength of the three-star Taoist ancestor stared at his tiger's eyes and walked to the middle-aged man who spoke, "Stop talking nonsense, the protection fee this month must be increased by 30%. Of course, it is not impossible for you not to give it to me!"

After the words came, the middle-aged man walked around the man surnamed Hu with a flattering smile and said, "Brother Hu, this is the third time we have raised the price this month. You see, my business is nothing. If this continues, I will really have to close the door!"

Brother Hu's face changed and he looked at the man with a sneer, "What does it have to do with me if you can open it? I'll ask if you don't want to hand it over?"

The man seemed to be very afraid of Brother Hu. Although it was somewhat related to those who could open a shop in Qingshan City, if he really wanted to fight with Brother Hu, he really didn't have the courage and ability.

After all, he is just a small two-star Taoist ancestor, and in front of Brother Hu, he is a thing with a thinner life than paper.

The man said bitterly, "It's not that I don't want to hand over, but there's nothing I can do! Can you see if you can make it up? I'll make up for it when the business is better next month?"

"Hmph, make up for it next month? What do you think I am doing? Do charity, I protect you from living and working in peace, and you give some rewards to thank you. This is natural. You are so tedious, may you think I am begging you?"

"I'll leave it here today. If you don't make up for it, you can weigh the consequences yourself!" Brother Hu said coldly.

Lin Tiancheng looked at this scene and couldn't help but feel curious. He turned to ask Hou Yuming beside him, "Didn't you say that the six major forces are very resentful of the exploitation of the indigenous people? Then who are these people? How dare they be so domineering?" After hearing this, a trace of fear flashed in Hou Yuming's eyes. Looking at these people, he said in a deep voice, "Mr. Lin, they are all members of the Liehuo Gang!"

"The Fire Gang is one of the few gangs among the middle forces that have surrendered to the gangs of the six major forces on the surface. There are not many people in this gang, probably one or two hundred people. The most powerful of them is the man in front of him, Hu Fei!"

"Although Hu Fei's strength is only three-star Taoist Ancestor Realm, in fact, many people in the four-star Taoist Ancestor Realm are very polite to him. It is said that he is the brother-in-law of the Crazy Gang who helped Kuang Dao!"

"The Crazy Dao has reached the level of the Five-Star Dao Ancestor, and the Crazy Wind Sword Technique is invincible. He is one of the six major forces in Qingshan City!"

"So, no one dared to say anything about Hu Fei's protection fee in his brother-in-law's name, let alone no one dared not to give it to him!"

After Hou Yuming finished speaking, Lin Tiancheng showed helplessness on his face. There were worlds where there were people. Whether it was the former China or the current Qingshan City, although the planes were different, people who did such dirty things could not be eliminated.

"I have internal and external troubles. Do you care about the power of the other five major forces?" Lin Tiancheng asked.

"How could it be possible to control it? Hu Fei is not a fool. Although he exploited these indigenous people, most of them were handed over in private, and he only intercepted some of them, which was equivalent to him doing the bad guys for those big guys. Everyone divided the benefits together, so no one cared about them. The people in power turned a blind eye to one!" Hou Yuming said sarcastically. Just as Lin Tiancheng and the others were talking, Hu Fei had already taken his younger brother to another store. The Fire Gang where Hu Fei was located was the largest gang on this street, so no one dared not to give protection fees, unless they really didn't want to open it.

Hu Fei walked down the street with his men and others, and collected all the shops. A very small number of them could not bear it, so he spoke out to confront Hu Fei.

"Gangmaster Hu, we have delivered it once a month on time and in full every time. This is the third time you have come this month. I want to ask if you, Liehuo Gang, are you so unreputable? How can we trust you in the future!"

Hu Fei looked at the person who was making noises with impatient face. He gathered spiritual power in his right hand and squatted on the ground and complained wildly. Then the younger brothers behind him rushed up and smashed the store.

"Hmph, I, Liehuo Helper, got you the turn to comment on me?" Hu Fei said arrogantly, "This is to teach you a lesson. If you know the truth, please hand it over quickly, otherwise..."
