"Good, good, good, then I will fulfill your wish!" Chou Qianchi's eyes narrowed, uttering the word 'good' three tis.
But before he could take action, a faint voice suddenly ca from outside Qianren Mountain:
"Chou Qianchi, roll out and et your death!"
The voice was indifferent, yet it carried a chilling intent that startled Chou Qianchi's heart. He felt a vague sense of unease and had already guessed who the person outside was, his face imdiately darkened.
He had just erged from seclusion, and Chen Yuan arrived.
To say this was a coincidence was absolutely impossible!
"If Qianren Sect suffers losses today, the Xie family will be removed!" with a cold snort, Chou Qianchi grabbed Xie Kunshan and stepped out, instantly arriving near the mountain gate.
At the sa ti, all the disciples of Qianren Sect knew a powerful enemy was attacking, one after another putting down what they were doing, wielding weapons with grim faces as they rushed to the vicinity of the mountain gate, ready to resist the external enemy.
Beams of light flickered, shooting straight into the sky, and the Mountain Protection Array was activated.
Outside the mountain gate, nearly a thousand Heavenly Patrol Guards stood with indifferent faces, gripping the hilts of their swords in various formations, led by Lu Renyi, the Golden Envoy of Shuzhou, and several Vice Envoys. As for Chen Yuan, he stood in the void with Ouyang Zhi.
"Father... Marquis, why not just take action directly?" Ouyang Zhi asked with suspicion, they had taken care of all the mountain patrol disciples outside Qianren Mountain.
They had not alerted anyone and could catch the opponent off guard, yet Chen Yuan stopped before making the final move, which was indeed strange.
"Stop talking nonsense, taking action directly is robbery." Chen Yuan replied.
"Then now...."
"Now... I have received secret intelligence that Qianren Sect is collaborating with the No-Life Sect demons, to eliminate harm for the people and to earn rit for the court!" Chen Yuan said, looking ahead.
Ouyang Zhi: "....."
Hundreds of zhang away in the void, waves surged, and Chou Qianchi, the Sect Leader of Qianren Sect, brought Xie Kunshan and stepped out, imdiately seeing the young man ahead.
Though young in appearance, his aura was not weak in the slightest, and he instantly guessed the person's identity.
The current Marquis, Heavenly Divine Envoy of the Heavenly Patrol Bureau, Chen Yuan!
"Is it Marquis Wu'an, Lord Chen, in person?" Binding Xie Kunshan with Primordial Energy, Chou Qianchi raised his hand in a salute. Though there was a cold sharpness in his eyes because of the direct intrusion, a smile still hung on his face.
"It is indeed !"
"I don't know why Lord Chen has brought so many Heavenly Patrol Guards to my Qianren Mountain? Is there sothing inappropriate that has been done?" Chou Qianchi asked with a smile.
"You know exactly why I am here, don't make list it out one by one!" Chen Yuan said with his hands behind his back, exuding extraordinary deanor.
"This...." Chou Qianchi's eyes flickered, but he ended up smiling awkwardly. He felt that Chen Yuan was being truly disrespectful; if there were issues, they could be discussed privately. Now that he had brought people to the door, even if they retreated in the end, Qianren Sect would suffer great damage to its reputation.
But there was no ti to think so much now, he straightened his face and continued:
"Lord Chen, why you are here, I have so guesses. It should be about the elders oppressing Hidden Soldier Valley, but there's more to the story, and I hope Lord Chen investigates thoroughly."
Chen Yuan's power was too great, plus the Bright Temple had been destroyed before, so it was truly a case of having to bow under the eaves, even if he was a veteran of Jianghu, he couldn't match the sun-like power of Marquis Wu'an.
Previously, he intended to find a diator to make peace, so that both sides could turn hostility into friendship and save face.
"Hmm?"
Chen Yuan suddenly looked at the subdued Xie Kunshan, as did Ouyang Zhi, with a hint of inexplicable aning in his eyes. He rembered this person's previously arrogant attitude; it was surprising to see such a change in just a few days....
"Before I went into seclusion, feeling the recent turmoil in the world, I ordered the disciples below to forge a batch of Spiritual Weapons, but this Xie Kunshan directly sought out Hidden Soldier Valley, leading to a conflict. It seems simple, and Qianren Sect is partly to bla, but with Lord Chen's intelligence, couldn't you see through it?"
Then, before Chen Yuan could say anything, he continued:
"I know Marquis Wu'an's reputation; how could I not know who is behind Hidden Soldier Valley? I wouldn't provoke without grievance or enmity. Frankly, these were all deliberately caused by Xie Kunshan for his own selfish interests.
Therefore, I suspect there might be a hidden hand trying to provoke enmity between our families, to gain from it. If Lord Chen doesn't believe it, you can conduct a Soul Search on this person, and the truth will be known instantly!"
Chen Yuan chuckled coldly; he wasn't really foolish, surely seeing there were issues here. But this was important and also unimportant because he intended to cleanse Shuzhou with blood as a foundation for the future.
Beside him, Ouyang Zhi imdiately recounted Xie Kunshan's background, deliberately ntioning his previous pursuit of Ouyang Zhi's mother, which was rejected.
Chen Yuan nodded without changing his expression, raised his hand to stop Chou Qianchi from continuing and said:
"Sect Leader Chou misunderstood; I have no relation with Hidden Soldier Valley, and how could I misuse public office for personal revenge against Qianren Sect for a Jianghu faction?"
Chou Qianchi imdiately breathed a sigh of relief, knowing Chen Yuan also heard the danger in it, giving him a way out. He imdiately cupped his hands and said:
"Qianren Sect indeed had so improper conduct in this matter. Xie Kunshan's words were re nonsense and do not represent Qianren Sect. I am willing to compensate Hidden Soldier Valley until... Valley Master Ouyang is satisfied."
"No, you didn't understand my aning. Today, I have ample evidence that proves your Qianren Sect colluded with No-Life Sect demons with the intention of rebellion.
Here to.... exterminate your sect!"
Chou Qianchi: "??? "
"Lord Chen, you...."
"Enough, no need to say more. The evidence is conclusive; everyone in Qianren Sect shall be executed as an example!"
Hearing Chen Yuan say this, Chou Qianchi was also angered and imdiately asked coldly:
"Where is the evidence?"
Chen Yuan's lips curled into a light smile:
"My word is the evidence!"
