Chapter 51 Talk
Chen Xuan's face was solemn, something unexpected had happened.
"What is this person going to do?"
Not only Chen Xuan, many people looked stunned at this moment, looking at the young man in black robe with phoenix eyes who was holding the letter.
Some Qi practitioners who were about to leave also stopped.
"You, a person from the later generations, are pushing your luck. Don't you know the rules?"
Liu Jiao stared at the young man with phoenix eyes, his face cold. He did not reach out to take the letter, but asked in a cold voice:
"Who is your elder? Is he important enough to extort something from me?"
He didn't even need to pick up the letter to guess what was in it. He had experienced too many such things over the long years... Some of them would require compromise, but most of them didn't.
The ancient people behind Liu Jiao clenched their weapons, their swords drawn, and looked grimly at the young man with phoenix eyes.
"Fellow Daoist, what you are doing is getting more and more. Isn't it a bit too much?" A cultivator with a decent character spoke up with an unhappy tone.
They had just gotten Liu Jiao's things, and before they even walked out the door, someone started making trouble. It was really ugly how they acted like they were greedy.
Received the gift, but still not satisfied, want more?
Could it be that he wanted to obtain something close to immortality, or even a relic of an ancient sage?
"You are ungrateful and have no sense of shame!" There was a Chiqi monk who had a bad temper and started cursing.
"Yes, yes."
Chen Xuan echoed in the crowd, thinking that the young man with phoenix eyes was going too far... Although, if the young man with phoenix eyes had not taken the initiative, he would have done something similar.
"Hmph! What do you know? You're just barking like dogs. What qualifications do you have to comment on the actions of the Cui family of Qinghe City? If you don't want to get into trouble, just shut up!"
The young man with phoenix eyes glanced at the monks with contempt and scolded them coldly.
Upon hearing this, the faces of the young men from the aristocratic families in Red Crow City changed drastically: "Ancient aristocratic family, the Cui family."
"He is actually from the Cui family. No wonder he has a pair of phoenix eyes, vaguely resembling an ancient mythical bird." Someone stared at the narrow eyes of the young man in black robe and muttered to himself.
Qinghe City is a famous city that ranks among the best in the entire ancient Chu State. Its status is many times higher than that of the remote Chiya City.
Chen Xuan was shocked, because even though he was ignorant, he had heard the name of this ancient family many times in the past month.
The Qinghe Cui family is one of the most famous ancient families in the ancient Chu State. They have intermarried with the princes and noble ladies of the Chu royal court for generations, so they have a pair of phoenix eyes like those of ancient mythical birds.
The young man with phoenix eyes looked accustomed to big occasions and said to Liu Jiao, "Senior Liu, why don't you read the letter first?"
Liu Jiao shook his head and refused: "No, I have no dealings with your family."
The ancient Cui family has a deep foundation and does have the ability to make him compromise, but it is impossible for him to kneel down as soon as he hears the word. Moreover, he has been spending money continuously over the years and has accumulated some incense.
"From today on, we will have exchanges."
The young man with phoenix eyes smiled and continued, "I'm sure Senior Liu is also curious why some of your old friends and descendants are not here today."
Liu Jiao's face changed, obviously he was hit on the point.
"As far as I know, the big shot Tao Hongchen whom you relied on in the outside world seems to be in a bad situation recently. Some people say that he has passed away. I don't know whether it is true or not, but the Taoist temple he founded was indeed attacked and broken by the enemy." The young man with phoenix eyes said a shocking news in a calm tone.
【Stay away from the world of red dust】.
This is a realm that tens of millions of cultivators can only look up to. There is no such towering creature in the thousands of miles of the entire Chiya City.
Not only in this world, but even in the more than 3,600 years since the establishment of the ancient Chu State, Chiya City has never produced a figure of Tao Hongchen's level.
Even someone as strong as Qingyazi, one of the most outstanding figures in Chiya City in the past few hundred years, was also struggling to pursue the realm of Tao Hongchen, but he encountered obstacles everywhere and could not achieve it.
But at this moment, a great figure in the ancient Chu State was suspected to have fallen? This news was shocking, and everyone present was shocked.
"Liu Jiao is in trouble now."
Chen Xuan said to himself that Liu Jiao, an immortal, had been relying on others all his life. If there were no big figures to protect him in the outside world, his situation would be very difficult.
After all, if someone really wants to deal with him cruelly, there are many ways to do it, such as recruiting thousands of peak-level Yuhua monks at one time, who can destroy the ancient village of Taohuayuan in one day and take away all of Liu Jiao's belongings.
Liu Jiao has worked hard to build up these relationships, but when faced with such a powerful force, it is unknown whether they are willing to intervene or whether they have the ability to help.
Just like now, as soon as the Cui family revealed their identity, the noble families in Chiya City immediately fell silent and dared not say a word.
But this is good news for Chen Xuan.
because.
He also wants to blackmail Liu Jiao on behalf of the big ghost in the Southern Wilderness!
Everyone was looking at Liu Jiao's reaction.
"Oh, half of the great cultivators in this world are my friends. Do you know that I don't have any other friends in Tao Hongchen?"
Liu Jiao snorted coldly, his face showing disapproval, but he still took the letter from the young man with phoenix eyes and looked down at it:
"I want to see what your Cui family wants to extort from me. I gave away almost all the relics of ancient sages in my early years..."
He shouldn't have answered it, it showed his weakness.
Chen Xuan thought... this time when the Peach Blossom Spring came to the world, the descendants of the mortal figure that Liu Jiao met did not show up. He must be extremely anxious and realized that the situation was troublesome.
He will be forced to compromise again.
Chen Xuan felt that Liu Jiao was very pitiful...even more pitiful than Yan Yushu and Wang Chan, who were destined to be trapped all their lives. They still had a chance to break free from the cage, but Liu Jiao didn't. His fate was in the hands of others from beginning to end.
"Which Qi practitioner hasn't done this? We in the Cui family don't do it, but there are many others who do it."
Seeing this, the young man with phoenix eyes struck while the iron was hot, saying, "Senior Liu, you understand that immortality doesn't guarantee immortality... But as long as Senior Liu agrees to this, the Cui family will be your steadfast ally from now on." A Qi practitioner muttered, "They've done such shameless coercion, and yet they still claim to be allies in the future? They really know how to manipulate people..."
But he only dared to whisper with his companions. After all, it was the Qinghe Cui family, a powerful force that they could not afford to offend. It was much more terrifying than Qinglu Mountain.
Chen Xuan thought to himself... he couldn't say such words. If it were him, he would definitely say... Yes, I did blackmail you. I did all kinds of bad things. If you have any grievances, just ask your friends to come to me!
"Oh, your family has such a big appetite that you even dare to take my last ancient sage relic that I have kept in the bottom of my box."
Liu Jiao sneered, then looked around at everyone and shouted, "Is there anyone else who wants to blackmail me? Why don't you tell me all at once so that I can see the fickleness of human nature and the unpredictable nature of the world."
He knew that he could not practice cultivation, and could not keep the relics of the ancient immortals and sages, so he gave away almost all of them. However, those great figures who had received the gifts were now old one after another.
With the passing of the last great man in the mortal world, the last thing could no longer be kept.
But he didn't care. There was no use keeping those things anyway. It was just that he was being stepped on and humiliated by others, so naturally he was in a bad mood.
Chen Xuan and a young man in white holding a sword stepped forward and each took out a letter. The ancient scholar took it away and handed it to Liu Jiao.
Liu Jiao flipped through the two letters and his face turned ashen.
Chen Xuan remembered the old white turtle's warning: "If Liu Jiao refuses to give it to you, kill him and take the thing yourself."
He looked around and thought about kidnapping Liu Jiao and forcing him to tell him the location of the ancient sage's relics. There was no need to kill anyone, and then taking the items and escaping. The total time required would be... He also needed to find an opportunity to explore the secret of the immortality seed, which was more important.
But this village is crowded with hundreds or even thousands of ancient people whose physical strength exceeds that of Qi practitioners who have achieved the third level of enlightenment.
Even now, in this ancestral hall, there are thirty or forty of the most elite ancient people...
Killing is easy, but achieving strategic goals is too difficult... It doesn't seem like a task that a human can accomplish.
I am really highly regarded by the big ghost in the Southern Wilderness.
Chen Xuan looked at the imposing tiger demon with a razor on its back in the distance. If these Southern Wilderness ghosts were willing to cooperate with him, and with Yan Yushu's help, there would be hope...
The young man in white holding the sword looked confident.
Liu Jiao pointed at the young man in white and said, "Your lion is asking for a small favor. I agree to this and will give you the item. However, if someone else takes it away along the way, it has nothing to do with me."
To leave the ancient village of Taohuayuan, you need to travel dozens of miles and finally enter the white fog at the edge before you can find the way out.
Afterwards, Liu Jiao raised the letter, looked at Chen Xuan and the young man with phoenix eyes, and said jokingly:
"As for you two, there is something that is very difficult for you."
Chen Xuan and the young man with phoenix eyes exchanged a glance, then looked at Liu Jiao in confusion.
Liu Jiao said with a look of embarrassment, "There's only one relic from the ancient sage, but both of you want to blackmail me. What should I do? If I give it to one family, I'll offend the other..."
When the young man with phoenix eyes heard this, his pupils shrank instantly and he thought to himself that something was wrong.
There is actually someone competing with him for the last relic of the ancient sage. Why is it this time? What kind of force is the other party?
When many forces were still wavering and waiting, the Cui family took huge risks and took decisive action in advance, but there were forces that were doing the same thing as the Cui family, trying to fish in troubled waters!
"Fortunately, my family was well prepared and brought a lot of helpers with them. Unfortunately, they are too old to enter the village and can only stay at the foot of the mountain..."
The young man with phoenix eyes was thinking quickly. He turned his head to look at the young man who was trying to compete with him, and warned him sternly: "I don't care who you are, the Cui family is not someone you can mess with..."
"boom!"
The next moment, a whistling sound like thunder exploded, and a bright golden-white fist pierced through the air.
The pupils of the young man with phoenix eyes shrank, and a red immortal energy instantly emerged on his face in response. The immortal energy was hit by the fist and sparks flew, and it collapsed at the touch. Then, the lower half of his handsome face was deformed, and several teeth flew out with blood.
"boom!"
The young man with phoenix eyes flew out and fell to the ground. His head tilted and he passed out like a pile of mud.
After three transformations, a punch with a force of more than 20,000 kilograms is so powerful that even a cultivator like the young man with phoenix eyes, whose physique has transformed to the extreme at the peak of transformation, cannot face the attack directly. At the very least, he will suffer a concussion and faint, and at the worst, his head will be shattered.
"Wow!"
Chen Xuan shook his fist, and a few drops of blood splashed from the half jade bracelet on his fist. It turns out that this thing is quite useful. It can be used as a brass knuckle weapon, and its toughness is no less than that of a jade hairpin.
Everyone in the field was stunned to see this sudden scene happening... Liu Jiao, Yan Yushu, Ye Kui, the tiger demon, the red fox... all the Qi practitioners and ancient people were dumbfounded.
Take action directly.
The decisiveness is astonishing.
The moment he discovered that the two were competitors, Chen Xuan did not hesitate at all. He immediately attacked the other competitor in front of everyone without any intention of negotiation. He cleared the obstacles with thundering means.
The most important thing is that this competitor is the famous Qinghe Cui family. If they do things this way and don't give others any face, how will they survive after leaving this paradise?
"boom!"
Chen Xuan grabbed one of the phoenix-eyed young man's legs, dragged him like a sack, and threw him out the door.
“Now there’s only one left.”
Chen Xuan clapped his hands, returned to the stunned Liu Jiao, and said with a smile, "Let's continue the discussion? I can make you an offer you can't refuse."
He takes advantage of others and then turns around to cause trouble.
A martial artist would not do such a despicable thing, and he is not a bloodthirsty person. Chen Xuan decided to solve the problem through other means.
