Liang Province, Jiangxia City.
River Summer City was a military city.
The city was built against a mountain, and a legion of the Heroic Army was stationed there.
Barracks were lined up in the city, and flags were everywhere. Soldiers holding swords and spears kept going in and out.
The highest-ranking officer in Jiangxia was called Sun Feipeng. He was a commander of the guards, at the Spiritual Bridge Realm.
Central Army Camp, Army Hall.
Sun Feipeng was sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed. There was a bridge above his head that connected him to the void.
Between each breath, spiritual energy was inhaled and exhaled, and it was extraordinary.
At this moment, a soldier reported from outside the hall,""Report! Commander, this subordinate has something to report."
Sun Feipeng opened his eyes, and the phantom of the spiritual bridge above his head returned to his body. He said lightly,"Come in."
"Tell me, what is it?"
"Sir, it's daily intelligence regarding Heyuan County," the green-armored soldier said respectfully.”
"Speak." Sun Feipeng nodded and didn't mind.
The Heroic Army had the duty to protect the nearby counties, and Heyuan County belonged to this area.
Of course, the current situation was turbulent. If something really happened, it was not certain whether they would send troops.
However, as a commander, he still paid attention to the major events in the nearby counties.
"Commander, according to the information I've gathered, a major incident happened in Heyuan County a few days ago.”
"Zhao Xing, the county head who just took office a few days ago, encountered the snake demons of the Si Water River on his first day of office.”
"After that, this County Lord, who was initially thought to be only at the Postnatal realm, revealed his Connate realm and went out of the city alone to kill the snake demon! It was rumored that he only used one attack to kill the Connate realm snake demon.”
"Hmm?" "The students sent by the imperial court in recent years have been getting younger and younger," Sun Pengfei said doubtfully.”
"Commander." The personal guard said," That Zhao Xing of Heyuan County is indeed young. According to the court bulletin, he is only eighteen years old.”
"Oh? An 18-year-old Connate Realm? To be able to kill a snake demon, one had to be at least at the middle stage of the Connate Realm. This was rare.”Sun Pengfei nodded slightly.
"This isn't the end, Commander." " After he returned to the city after killing the demons, this person took the power of victory and took drastic measures to clean up the government, eliminate corruption, and expand the manpower.”
"In less than three days, a large number of forces loyal to him have gathered.”
"Then, three days later, he made a move on the local Li, Yang, and Xu families.”
"Commander, what is the result?" The guard kept him in suspense.
"That county lord suffered a loss and hit a wall?”Sun Pengfei asked.
He had some understanding of Heyuan County because it was close to the county and he had dealt with the previous county magistrate a few times.
The three great clans were deeply rooted in Heyuan City and had been operating for a hundred years. A newly appointed young county lord was alone and had no foundation. It was likely that he would not be able to fight against those great clans.
"Wrong, Commander!" The personal guard said," According to the intelligence report, the three great clans were completely destroyed a few days ago. They were uprooted by that young county magistrate!”
" What?!" Sun Feipeng was stunned for a moment, then he quickly said,"There's actually such a thing? Hurry up and hand over the information."
A moment later, Sun Feipeng put down the information and praised,"What a young genius, what a young County Lord!”
"First, he killed the snake demon outside the city and used the situation to recruit people. After that, he used a plan to break the alliance of the three families and seized the opportunity to wipe out the three families in one fell swoop.”
"The timing was just right. You can be said to be brave and resourceful!”
"Commander, this subordinate also feels that this young County Lord is formidable.”The personal guard smiled." Heyuan County also shares a portion of the rations of our Heroic Army every year. At this time, should we…"
"He Er, there's no one else here, you don't have to hide.”Sun Pengfei said lightly.
"Yes, my lord." The personal guard said,
"Although it is a taboo to befriend the military and political officials, the current situation is turbulent. Once there is a change in the court, our heroic army will definitely take action. If we make friends with the actual rulers of the counties in advance, there will be less resistance in the future…"
"Moreover, this young County Lord is intelligent and brave. His talent is not bad and his future is limitless.”
Sun Pengfei pondered for a moment and said," Yes, He Er. Prepare a congratulatory gift for me and send it to Heyuan City. Tell him to congratulate him on his appointment."”
"Yes, this subordinate will do as you say." He Er immediately took his leave.

Nanyang County, County Mansion.
Nanyang County was in charge of dozens of counties and was a higher-level government.
At this moment, a middle-aged official in a purple-bearded carp robe was approving official documents in the prefecture.
This person was Ji Liang, one of the provincial governors of Nanyang County.
What did the provincial governor do?
It was equivalent to the promotion and transfer of officials in the discipline inspection and organization departments.
His power was not small.
Ji Liang was playing with a thumb ring.
At this moment, an official walked in and said to Ji Liang,""Lord Ji, Baiyang County's County Magistrate Zheng Yang, Shanghe County's County Magistrate Fang Zhen, and several other officials request an audience.”
"What are they doing here?" Ji Liang's elegant mood was interrupted and he couldn't help but frown.
"Sir, I heard that Shanghe County's County Magistrate Fang Zhen joined forces with a few County Magistrate and influential families to impeach Heyuan County's new County Lord Zhao Xing. He killed the innocent, took bribes, and perverted the law, causing the people to live in misery.”
