Peerless War God

Compared to before, it was obviously much more deserted today, and only a few scattered cultivators were wandering about.    

At this moment, Green Lotus suddenly said, "If there's a chance this time, I hope that Elder Chen can help them take revenge. This young woman is endlessly grateful."    

Green Lotus stopped and turned to Chen Xiao, saying.    

Chen Xiao smiled faintly and said, "Alright."    

He agreed without any extra considerations. As an elder of the Chamber of Commerce, this was something he should do.    

Of course, he wouldn't force himself. It would be good if he had the chance to take revenge, but if he didn't, he wouldn't force it or even take the risk.    

When Green Lotus saw Chen Xiao agree so decisively, she was startled for a moment, then she gave him a deep look.    

"Thank you."    

"En."    

With that, the two entered a secret chamber. At this time, there were already two people waiting in the secret room. They were both male cultivators. A middle-aged man stood respectfully at the side. There was also a person with a pale face and a weak appearance. He was carefully sitting in a wheelchair, looking like he had suffered a serious injury.    

When Chen Xiao saw this, he turned to look at Green Lotus.    

Green Lotus's cold eyes swept over the two of them and said indifferently, "This time, the merchant ship was robbed and almost all of them were killed. They are the only survivors who escaped. If Elder Chen had any questions, he could ask them, except for the one in the wheelchair. Su Qi will go out to sea with you to investigate this matter. "    

"Young man Su Qi greets Elder Chen." After he finished speaking, the middle-aged male cultivator hurriedly greeted Chen Xiao.    

His tone was polite, and the smile on his face was very gentle, giving people a very intimate feeling.    

However, in Chen Xiao's eyes, it was somewhat unpleasant. This kind of fake smile was totally an act. He didn't like it, but it wasn't suitable to show it in this kind of occasion.    

"Yes." Chen Xiao nodded lightly. His eyes swept over the two people, especially the warrior in the wheelchair. He paid more attention to it.    

He confirmed that the other person's injuries were indeed very serious. His Qi Sea had been broken, and his bones were broken. Clearly, he had suffered a heavy blow. Even if he was cured, he would still be a waste.    

Pausing for a moment, Chen Xiao said, "When the merchant ship was in trouble, the two of you were on the ship?"    

"In reply to Elder Chen, Su Qi and I were in charge of receiving people, and weren't on the merchant ship." The crippled cultivator on the wheelchair replied.    

"Yes, we weren't on the ship." Su Qi also quickly agreed.    

"Is that so? In that case, at that time, there were no survivors on the ship, right? But I heard that there were two Tribulation Transcenders among the guards of the merchant ship. Even Tribulation Transcenders couldn't escape?" Chen Xiao said with a solemn expression.    

This was the main point of his attention. One should know that under normal circumstances, even if a Tribulation Transcender wanted to escape, he wouldn't be able to stop them.    

Unless the other side, which was also the people of Yama Island, was far stronger than them. In other words, three of them or even more Evil Immortals were sent out, giving them no chance to escape.    

It was merely a mere Yama Island. Was it possible?    

Hearing this, Green Lotus recalled for a moment before saying, "Elder Chen's words are correct. This is also the most suspicious part. The Tower Master had already instructed them to investigate carefully. However, up until now... There's no result yet."    

"Mm."    

Chen Xiao nodded, indicating that he understood.    

After a pause, Chen Xiao continued, "Su Qi, right?"    

"Yes, if Elder Chen has anything that he wants to know, just ask. I dare not hide anything from you." Su Qi said with a sincere expression.    

However, Chen Xiao didn't pay much attention to him. He didn't even continue to ask about the situation of the merchant ship. Instead, he asked, "Su Qi, since your surname is Su, are you also a member of the Su Family?"    

Hearing this, Su Qi was obviously stunned for a moment. Obviously, he was a little surprised by Chen Xiao's sudden thought. After a pause, he said, "Yes, I am also a member of the Su family, but I am not a direct descendant. I am only a branch disciple of the Su family, and not a member of the family."    

When he said this, he clearly had a somewhat disappointed and self-deprecating tone.    

Even Green Lotus was stunned for a moment. She felt a little depressed. Why did Chen Xiao suddenly ask such a question that had nothing to do with the merchant ship being robbed?    

However, since Chen Xiao was in charge of this matter, he naturally could not interrupt. He could just let him ask and remind him later.    

"Side branch disciples?" Chen Xiao asked.    

"Yes, I am a disciple of a branch family, and my talent is ordinary. I naturally can't enter your eyes." Su Qi said with a lowered expression.    

"Oh, so that's how it is. Then how many years have you been in White Stone City's Treasure Tower?" Chen Xiao changed another question.    

Hearing this, not only Green Lotus, but also Su Qi frowned. His eyes lit up. He really couldn't understand why the other party would ask such a question.    

This made all the drafts and countermeasures he had prepared useless.    

But after thinking for a moment, Su Qi still replied, "It's been more than twenty years, almost thirty years."    

"So long?"    

"Yes," said Su Qi.    

"Have you ever thought about going back?" Wang Yao asked.    

"Of course I have. But this kind of thing is not something I can decide. Elder Chen, you are asking the wrong question. These things have nothing to do with the merchant ship accident." Su Qi said in a deep voice.    

Seeing this, Green Lotus's brows sank. Looking at Su Qi's expression, she seemed to be deep in thought.    

"It's nothing. You don't have to think too much." Chen Xiao said faintly, "I have finished my question."    

"This..." Su Qi was stunned for a moment. He stood still and gave Chen Xiao a deep look. He did not say anything.    

On the other hand, Green Lotus had a meaningful look on her face.    

"Is that all? Why don't you ask more about the accident that happened to the merchant ship? After all, these two people were there at that time. Their words should be very useful as a reference." Green Lotus said.    

"No need. I've already asked all my questions." Chen Xiao said in a flat tone. He had no intention of asking any further questions.    

In his opinion, there was no need for that.    

Seeing Chen Xiao's resolute attitude, Green Lotus didn't insist. She said to the two of them, "Both of you can leave now. Elder Chen and I have something to tell you."    

"Yes."    

"The two of them nodded."    

Su Qi and the wheelchair cultivator both felt as if they had been granted amnesty and quickly retreated.    

At this time, Green Lotus raised her hand and casually laid down a soundproof barrier. Only then did she turn around to look at Chen Xiao and said, "Elder Chen Xiao, are you really only asking this kind of strange questions and not asking about the incident at all?"    

"Heh."    

Chen Xiao smiled and said expressionlessly, "I think you have already asked Su Qi and the man in the wheelchair many times before this. Since you have already asked, you must have asked in more detail than me. Why should I ask? It's unnecessary. "
