Capítulo 1352: Chapter 1343: Free Access
He didn’t have ti to think much, and hurried towards the crowded area. He felt that the current situation in the Ancient World must have a different political structure, which is why it’s beco like this, with so people feeling uneasy.
This small town had quite a few people, so Xiao Yifei, with his keen eyes, directly found a place suitable for gathering information — a teahouse.
“What kind of tea would the guest like?” As soon as Xiao Yifei sat down at his seat, the waiter suddenly appeared, smiling as he asked.
“A cup of Longjing,” Xiao Yifei lowered his voice, deliberately pretending to be very deep.
“Alright,” the waiter quickly said with a smile and went to prepare the Longjing tea. Xiao Yifei took the opportunity to lean in and listen to the movents of the surroundings. His hearing was now extrely strong, and even from a long distance, he could hear the sound of a mosquito’s wings flapping.
Sure enough, teahouses were indeed the best places to gather information. Ordinary people excel at sitting in teahouses, chatting with their friends, talking idly, and spending the day.
“Did you hear? The Empress is going to issue so new decrees recently…” one of the commoners said with so fear.
“Lower your voice,” the man he was talking to hurriedly said, “There are soldiers patrolling outside frequently now. If your voice is too loud, you might be taken away!”
“Alright, alright…” The man was very scared, looking like he was afraid of angering an immortal…
“I’ve heard as well that the Empress issued a new order,” the man said cautiously, “It’s said that strict control of the border issues will be enforced; outside n aren’t allowed to co and go freely…”
“Why are outside n not allowed to co and go freely,” the commoner asked with so confusion, “Are there no regulations for won?”
“How would I know, the Empress’s orders are like this…” The man said cautiously, “Even the Ancient Clan once crawled at her feet. Who would dare be dissatisfied now? We commoners should just do what we can…”
“True, true, co, have so tea,” the man who asked then ca to terms with it, laughing as he spoke to the other.
Xiao Yifei wasn’t interested in listening to the rest; even the waiter was surprised that this guest left without finishing his tea.
Along the way, Xiao Yifei was contemplating. From the brief exchanges of the two n, he evidently discovered sothing significant — sothing about the Empress, the Ancient Clan, and why the commoners ran away upon seeing him earlier. He was a bit puzzled, wondering if what he thought was true, had the situation here truly changed?
“Hello, can you help with sothing?” Xiao Yifei seized an opportunity in a small alleyway on the street, smiling as he spoke to a commoner.
“What is it?” The commoner was quite simple, although sowhat puzzled, he walked over to Xiao Yifei’s corner, completely unaware of Xiao Yifei’s sinister smile.
“I need a favor,” Xiao Yifei smiled, clasping the man’s shoulder, then forcibly dragged him into a small corner, pulling out a knife from sowhere and pressing it against the man’s neck, deliberately saying viciously: “I’m a bit short on cash recently, do you have any money on you, old man…”
“Please spare , great hero…” The commoner imdiately panicked, his mouth instantly flying: “I have old and young at ho, my mother is already ninety years old, the child is only a few years old, crying for milk…”
“Enough, dammit, don’t give that routine,” Xiao Yifei said viciously, “I’m just asking if you have money or not, less of that useless talk…” He finished by deliberately moving the knife closer to the man’s neck, directly causing a blood mark, combined with Xiao Yifei’s masked face, making it indeed terrifying!
“No, I don’t…” The commoner said tremblingly, then noticing Xiao Yifei’s face darkening, imdiately shouted: “Spare great hero… I really don’t have any money, all my money has been handed over above… I genuinely don’t have any more…” Then, unexpectedly kneeled down to kowtow…
“Heh heh,” Xiao Yifei saw his trick work, feeling extrely pleased inside, but his face grew more stern, speaking in a threatening tone: “Alright, then I’ll ask you so things, you must answer truthfully, in exchange for not having money, but if anything is false, I’ll kill you…”
He deliberately acted viciously, intending to plant a seed of fear in the commoner’s heart, then to coax so words from him, which was his ultimate goal. Honestly, he didn’t care about the money…
“Alright, alright, I’ll talk, I’ll talk…” The commoner imdiately beca compliant, what could be more valuable than his life? Now, even if Xiao Yifei asked him how many tis he slept with his wife recently, he would quickly tell him…
“Alright, I’ll ask you: In this world now, who holds power?” Xiao Yifei asked deliberately viciously, pressing the knife closer, frightening the commoner from breathing loudly.
“It’s the Empress,” he stuttered, fearing Xiao Yifei’s hand might slip, he’d die an untily death.
“Empress? Who is this?” Xiao Yifei asked strangely, he’d been here for so long, yet never heard of this person? “What about the Xiao Family, weren’t they very powerful back then…” Xiao Yifei asked strangely, continuing.
“The Xiao Family was completely annihilated…” The commoner said stuttering, “When the Empress erged, she felt the Xiao Family’s ambition was too great, so she directly wiped them out…”
“What! When did this happen?” Xiao Yifei asked surprised.
“Just last ti, when the Xiao Family nearly led all families, the Empress suddenly erged and used Divine Power to eliminate the Xiao Family…” the commoner said nervously, also puzzled, because this matter was known throughout the entire continent, how could this man seem unaware?
“Even the Xiao Family was annihilated?” Xiao Yifei was a bit shocked, how imnse was this Empress’s Energy, the flourishing Xiao Family was eradicated just like that, and what’s more, the entire clan, such power could entirely dominate the whole continent, right? Could it be… Sunfla Qilin also…
Suddenly, Xiao Yifei thought of sothing bad. Sunfla Qilin was the Xiao Family’s Guardian Holy Beast, if the Xiao Family was annihilated, didn’t it an that the Sunfla Qilin was… dead too? This Holy Beast was of great kindness to him, now on hearing such news, Xiao Yifei felt sowhat saddened…
“What happened then!” Xiao Yifei continued asking, a great change in the Ancient World, how could such an event occur so suddenly!
“Then, the Empress established the Martial Emperor Hall, right in the central position of the continent, then firmly controlled all Ancient Clans in her hands, now becoming the indisputable first Emperor of the Ancient World!” The commoner said nervously.
