"Get dressed."
"Yes, yes, yes, we'll listen to the hero, we'll listen to the hero!"
The obese magistrate was searching for his clothes all over the ground.
Huang Yi sat in the chair, looking at the county magistrate.
The magistrate hastily wrapped his clothes around himself and then knelt down to beg for mercy.
"I heard you're going to collect taxes around Taihu Lake, so I've come to pay them."
Is 50,000 taels enough?
When Huang Yi spoke, the county magistrate was immediately stunned.
However, having spent a long time in officialdom, he quickly realized what Huang Yilai wanted.
"No, no, how could I dare take your money, sir?"
"Fifty thousand taels isn't enough, then one hundred thousand taels will do."
"Alright, alright, I'll do as you say, hero. Ten thousand taels, ten thousand taels!"
Not long after, Huang Yi left the county government office with 100,000 taels of silver notes.
That magistrate, struck by his finger, would be unable to touch a woman for three years.
Unless someone with strong internal energy can help him release his acupoints.
There are very few people in the world whose internal strength is stronger than Huang Yi's.
Even the county magistrate couldn't persuade them.
Killing won't solve the problem.
If someone else were in charge, they might still be collecting taxes.
Near Taihu Lake, Huang Yi currently only controls 20,000 to 30,000 people.
Guiyun Manor and the surrounding river pirates number only about three thousand.
The year is mainly for laying the foundation.
Huang Yi had been out for five days.
I took a stroll around Taihu Lake.
The common people still suffer, while those who depend on Guiyun Village live a little better.
At least, I can eat my fill.
The people don't have high demands.
Five days later, Huang Yi returned to Guiyun Manor.
"Master, you're finally back!"
"Here are 100,000 taels of silver notes. Go and exchange them."
Lu Guanying stood there, stunned, holding the silver note in his hand.
"This is"
"This is a token of apology from the county magistrate to our Guiyun Manor."
"Ah, this"
The county magistrate, who had previously sent people to collect taxes, even apologized to Huang Yi after Huang Yi left.
Lu Guanying didn't care how it was done; he figured it must have involved force or something similar.
"Master, what's the next thing to do?"
"Gather all seventy-two of my registered disciples together, and I will give them a lesson."

"Yes, Master."
Lu Guanying could be considered their senior brother, and he was also the manager of Guiyun Manor.
People were quickly gathered.
Guiyun Manor was built according to the shape of the Bagua (Eight Trigrams).
There is a large open space in each of the eight directions.
Huang Yi gathered them together
"Greetings to Master"
All seventy-two disciples respectfully bowed with clasped hands to greet Huang Yi.
"As your teacher, I'm going to test you."
"Attack me, all of you!"
The crowd looked at each other, none of them daring to...
"Humph"
"Let me show you."
Huang Yi's aura suddenly surged.
The man, like a ghost, charged towards the crowd.
A powerful gust of wind from a palm strike knocked several people to the ground.
Many people were already on the ground before they even realized what was happening.
Seventy-two people, not even lasting two minutes, all collapsed to the ground.
After a long while, everyone got up again and stood in neat rows.
A fervor shone in their eyes
Only then did they realize just how powerful Huang Yi truly was.
"I barely manage to practice for three hours every day."
Huang Yi stood on the high platform and scanned the surroundings.
"Yes, Master"
No one dared to voice any objections.
Huang Yi, all by himself, without even seeming to use any skill, was completely knocked to the ground.
Three hours is six hours.
They also need to study for an hour every day.
When you calculate it all, it's not an easy task.
Next, Huang Yi began to instruct them in martial arts.
They have already mastered the basic skills.
They began by teaching them the first thirty-six forms of the Empty Fist.
At the same time, they were taught basic internal energy cultivation techniques.
Seventy-two people practiced hard every day.
Huang Yi would torture them every single day for five days.
As a result, after a month, their skills had improved significantly.
Chapter 12 Valley Outside Xiangyang City
A month passed in the blink of an eye.
Huang Yi ended his apprenticeship.
Lu Chengfeng and Feng Mofeng also ended their seclusion.
In one month, they had finished studying the Nine Yang Divine Skill.
It truly lives up to its reputation as a top-tier internal energy cultivation method.
After a month of training, combined with leg techniques, their leg injuries had improved considerably.
After a month of seclusion, the three fellow disciples, along with Lu Guanying, reunited in the Hall of Righteousness.
"Thank you, Junior Brother. Junior Brother Feng and I have both improved our skills considerably."
Neither of them expected that Huang Yi would directly pass on his divine skills to them.
"Junior brother also hopes that his two senior brothers will recover soon."
"I won't say much more about family matters; my junior brother is about to go into seclusion again."
"I need to hand over my group of nominal disciples to my two senior brothers."
