Xu Jingming, Liu Hai, and the others quickly boarded the ferry. After all, the weather was freezing, and it wasn’t easy to hire that many large ferries at the last minute.
Six large ferries sent the Fei family convoy—both personnel and horses—to the other side of the river.
They went ashore, and the Fei family convoy then traveled nearly 50 kilometers before arriving at Lanjiang City.
A large number of troops had already gathered outside Lanjiang City. Fei Qing stood at the forefront and looked up.
“They’re here.” When Fei Qing saw the convoy, he immediately went forward excitedly to welcome them.
“My son.” Old Master Fei saw his son from afar in the carriage and hurriedly got off the carriage with his daughter.
The family of three reunited.
“My son.” Old Master Fei looked at his son and carefully checked if he was injured.
“Dad, I’m fine.” Fei Qing’s eyes were filled with tears as he stared at his much older father, feeling even more guilty. “I was unfilial for making you worry.”
“You had your reasons.” Although Old Master Fei knew from the letter that his son was still alive, he was still delighted to see him with his own eyes.
“Brother.” Fei Xinlan was also very excited. Brother is really still alive!
The family was very happy to be reunited.
Soon, Fei Qing personally walked over to Xu Jingming and the others.
“Lord Fei.” Xu Jingming had already dismounted and took the initiative to welcome him.
“Brother Jingming,” Fei Qing said gratefully, “we are thankful to get your help. Otherwise, with King Qi’s character, my sister probably wouldn’t have been able to escape the calamity.”
To ensure the flawless execution of his plan to fake his death, he had hidden it from his father and sister, afraid that others might notice something if his family weren’t careful. However, who would’ve thought that Dean Ming would suddenly pass away and that his sister would be abducted by King Qi?
“Ever since I arrived in the capital, you have taken care of me and many of my friends. How can I stand by and do nothing when Miss Fei is in trouble?”
“I heard that you and your friends are planning on staying in Lanjiang City permanently.” Fei Qing nodded. “I’ve already sent troops to take down Lanjiang City! The entire city will be under your control in the future. You will be the City Lord of Lanjiang City!”
“That won’t do,” Xu Jingming immediately replied.
The City Lord of Lanjiang City? As a cosmic citizen player, he wasn’t suitable to be a high-ranking official! Otherwise, he would be in a lot of trouble.
This was also the world’s restraint.
“It’s just an ordinary city,” Fei Qing said.
He was now in charge of the entire eastern region and could be considered one of the most powerful people in the world. Lanjiang City was small and nothing worth mentioning. Just Xu Jingming saving his sister was worth a city as gratitude.
“Your Excellency, I’m focused on the martial arts path,” Xu Jingming said. “Although I’m rooted in Lanjiang City, I will often travel the world to hone my martial arts. Therefore, I don’t want to be burdened by mundane matters. I seek your understanding, Your Excellency.”
“Qing’er, leave this to me. I’ll make arrangements for Mr. Jing and his friends,” Old Master Fei said.
“Then, I’ll leave it to you, Father.” Fei Qing nodded. He believed in his father’s means, and he was busy. He had to leave Lanjiang City tomorrow.


Two days later.
The only gang in Lanjiang City, the Iron Saber Gang.
“Greetings, Boss.” The gang’s upper echelons bowed respectfully.
Xu Jingming sat on the throne while Liu Hai sat on the deputy seat.
“Hall masters, stay. The others can take their leave,” Xu Jingming instructed.
Soon, there were only 12 people from China left in the hall.
“The Iron Saber Gang’s boss, deputy boss, and the ten hall masters are all family,” Xu Jingming said. “Moreover, Old Master Fei is very diligent. He sent troops to help us unify all the gangs in Lanjiang City.”
“Old Master Fei is indeed capable,” Liu Hai commented.
From Old Master Fei’s point of view, Xu Jingming had saved Fei Xinlan’s life.
Secondly, the sect behind Xu Jingming could storm King Qi’s residence! It was obvious that they were very strong. Giving an ordinary city’s gang to Xu Jingming was also a way of befriending him.
“I’ll leave the Iron Saber Gang to you in the future,” Xu Jingming said. “If you encounter any trouble that you can’t resolve, inform me. I’ll immediately enter Blood Rain World.”
Liu Hai smiled and said, “We don’t have any ambitions. To manage the Iron Saber Gang, we naturally need to be amiable to have a steady income. After all, you said
 that everyone can only earn 100,000 gold in Blood Rain World! Therefore, we have to take a long-term view. In the future, batches of Chinese experts can use Lanjiang City as a foundation to manage the surrounding area.”
“We have limited manpower, so we’ll manage Lanjiang City first. When there are more people in the future, we’ll slowly infiltrate the surroundings,” Lei Yunfang said.
Everyone present nodded.
Xu Jingming might not care, but for cosmic citizens like them who had just broken through, they were still very satisfied with the silver they could earn as upper echelons of the Iron Saber Gang in Blood Rain World.
“I’ll leave the gang to you in the future.” Xu Jingming smiled and got up. “I’ll make a move first.”
He wouldn’t return unless something important happened in the future.
Goodbye, Blood Rain World.
“Don’t worry, Jingming. We will manage the Iron Saber Gang and Lanjiang City well,” Liu Hai said.
Everyone present was determined. Xu Jingming had established a foundation for them by relying on his strength and his relationship with the Fei family. It would be a disgrace if they couldn’t manage it well!
“I’m leaving.” Xu Jingming looked at the world again. Then, he disappeared into thin air and left Blood Rain World.
“Blood Rain World isn’t attractive to Brother Xu anymore,” Fang Yu remarked. “He spent an additional month in Blood Rain World for us and the future cosmic lifeforms from China.”
“Yes.”
“China’s future cosmic lifeforms can use Blood Rain World to obtain starting capital for the evolutionary path.” Everyone nodded. They knew why Xu Jingming had spent an additional month here.
“Brother Liu Hai, how strong is Jingming now?” Lei Yunfang asked curiously.
Liu Hai smiled. “Jingming was already a super expert a year ago when you were still stuck at Lv. 4. How strong do you think he is now?”
Everyone present exclaimed in surprise. As expected of the number one person on Earth; he was far ahead!
Back then, people thought that Tejano was on par with Xu Jingming. Later on, they learned that Tejano was an envoy sent by the Cosmic Human Alliance.
“Brother Xu’s actual combat bonus might be 30x to 40×!” Tu Ling exclaimed.
“The evolutionary path attaches greater importance to the mind the further one goes,” Liu Hai said. “Many Lv. 7 cosmic lifeforms are extremely strong in actual combat, but they can’t break through! Jingming’s mind is also very weak. If he wants to reach Lv. 8
 his mind will be his greatest obstacle! Therefore, let’s try our best to resolve Blood Rain World’s matters ourselves in the future. Don’t disturb him unless it’s a huge matter.”
Everyone present nodded.
With so many outstanding people, they were confident in managing a city gang.

Earth.
Xu Jingming sat in his courtyard and looked at the large amount of information on the projection in front of him.
I spent more than a month settling matters in Blood Rain World, he thought to himself. No matter what, his experience in Blood Rain World was very successful. After all, he had successfully entered the Primordial Research Institute! It also laid the foundation for everyone in China.
Next, I have to focus on my mental strength. Xu Jingming carefully read the information about Demon Vanquishing World.
Demon Vanquishing World was a special virtual world built by the Cosmic Human Alliance to improve one’s mental strength. The requirements to enter were also very high—establishing an account required 100 million cosmic dollars!
According to the records, almost every Lv. 8 cosmic lifeform in the Cosmic Human Alliance had entered Demon Vanquishing World!
It takes 100 million cosmic dollars to create an account for entry. It’s quite expensive. Xu Jingming read a large amount of information about Demon Vanquishing World.
