Peerless War God

2"Looks like this place is real. No problem. Hmph, interesting. I would like to give it a try. Whether this place is a dragon's pond or a tiger's den, let's try it out. " Chen Xiao thought in his heart, but the expression on his face did not change at all.    

    

All the signs along the way were very suspicious. Besides the attendant that led the way to the Treasure Pavilion, he paid too much attention to him, and his gaze practically never left him for a single moment.    

    

Besides that, the people that were the most suspicious were the people that were hidden in the shadows in the surroundings. They ought to be the spies of the Redbud Chamber of Commerce, and there were over a dozen of them that were in charge of monitoring him from the shadows at practically every single moment, and it was even to the extent that even more gazes were focused on him.    

    

Even though they had already arrived at the entrance of the Treasure Pavilion, these gazes were still there. This made him very surprised.    

    

Generally speaking, it was very normal for people to watch and monitor him in secret. However, there were too many miscellaneous people watching him now. It was very unusual for there to be so many of them. It was already beyond normal. It was as if someone was deliberately targeting him.    

    

However, knowing that there was a tiger on the mountain, he wanted to take a look. Was there a trick in the Treasure Pavilion? Hehe.    

    

"Lead the way. " Chen Xiao said without batting an eyelid.    

    

"Yes. "    

    

Thus, under the lead of the attendant, after passing through the numerous guards, the attendant brought Chen Xiao to the penthouse on the top floor of the Treasure Pavilion.    

    

The guard stood at the entrance and knocked on the door a few times, then said to the inside, "Pavilion Master, Young Master Chen Xiao has been brought here. "    

    

"Got it. You can leave now. " Suddenly, the voice of a middle-aged man could be heard from the inside of the room.    

    

"Yes. " The attendant complied and withdrew, leaving Chen Xiao alone.    

    

Following a series of creaking sounds, the door was knocked open from the inside. A middle-aged man with a beard and a slightly plump body walked out and said with a smile: "I presume that you are Young Master Chen Xiao. As the rumors say, you are indeed a talented man. I, Li Xian, am not the Pavilion Master of this Treasure Pavilion. "    

    

As expected of a businessman who had opened the door to do business. His words seemed to be very harmonious, making people feel very close to him. Then, some of the cultivators with lower alertness might be brought into the ditch just like that, being sold without even knowing it.    

    

As the saying went, there was no cheating, no business. This was also a must-have skill for businessmen, swindling and swindling. Those who did not swindle and swindle would definitely not become businessmen.    

    

However, because Chen Xiao had preconceived ideas, he had long been mentally prepared. He was especially wary of this guy called Li Xian. Therefore, he could not trust any of Li Xian's words.    

    

"Pavilion Master Li. " Chen Xiao smiled and cupped his fists. Then, he said, "I wonder why Pavilion Master Li spent so much effort to invite me here. I don't think he just wants to see me, right? I'm a man who knows my own limitations. I don't think I'm that attractive. I hope Pavilion Master Li can tell me honestly. "    

    

After listening to Chen Xiao's words, it was obvious that he was extremely vigilant. Li Xian didn't seem to mind it. His facial expression didn't change, and there wasn't even the slightest change on his face. This caused Chen Xiao's heart to sink.    

    

This fellow was truly an old fox. What a deep and subtle mind. He was actually able to maintain his composure without any change in expression. He was truly amazing. I'm afraid that he wants to dig out some useful things from the other party's body. This plan was likely to completely fail.    

    

Unfortunately.    

    

Sure enough, Li Xian smiled and said, "Young Master Chen Xiao's words are serious. It's just that many things have happened recently and are of great importance. Island Master Wan has already mobilized the West Sea Region's Chamber of Commerce to search for your whereabouts for your safety, but if there's any news, report it immediately. "    

    

Upon hearing this, Chen Xiao felt relieved and touched. He had never thought that it would be Wan Ling'er who gave the order to search for his whereabouts. It was indeed thoughtful of him.    

    

"So that's how it is. " Chen Xiao said.    

    

Li Xian nodded at him and continued. "That's right. Young Master Chen Xiao, you don't have to be so vigilant. We are all members of the Redbud Merchant Guild, and we are all grasshoppers on the same rope. We will both suffer together. Come, let's go into the room. Let's sit down and have a good chat. Please. "    

    

Chen Xiao didn't say much. He followed Li Xian into the house and found a stool to sit on.    

    

"Young Master, please have some tea. This is the best immortal tea. " Li Xian greeted him warmly and brewed a pot of hot tea. A faint phenomenon emerged from it, making people feel as if they were floating in the clouds. It was indeed an excellent immortal tea. The taste was beyond description.    

    

Chen Xiao took a sip and said casually, "The tea is indeed not bad. I have already drunk the tea before. It's time for us to get down to business. "    

    

"Oh, I wonder what business young master wants to talk about?" Li Xian revealed a strange expression and said with a smile that was not a smile.    

    

"Since you are the Pavilion Master of the Treasure Pavilion on Yongling Island, then you should know about what happened on White Bone Island. Just what happened on White Bone Island, and who destroyed it? There's also Elder Bai Jun. How's the whereabouts now? " Chen Xiao asked a few questions in a row. These were all things he desperately wanted to know.    

    

After listening to Chen Xiao's question, Li Xian paused for a moment, as if he was thinking about something. However, he didn't answer Chen Xiao's question immediately. Instead, he asked back, "Young Master Chen Xiao, I heard that a few days ago, you were on that black ship with Bai Jun and Wan Lianpeng, the two elders, right?"    

    

Chen Xiao raised his brows. Suddenly, he had a bad feeling in his heart. He continued, I heard that you were on that black ship with Bai Jun and Wan Lianpeng a few days ago. "What do you mean?"    

    

"Young Master Chen Xiao, don't misunderstand me. I don't have any other intentions. Even I am very curious about what happened on White Bone Island that day. It actually caused a bloody battle between Cloud Sky Pavilion and Redbud Chamber of Commerce. We have suffered a great loss. " Li Xian said with a solemn expression.    

    

Chen Xiao's expression changed instantly. Judging from Li Xian's tone, it seemed that the matter was far more serious than he had expected.    

    

"The bloody battle between Cloud Sky Pavilion and Redbud Merchant Guild? Was this the reason why White Bone Island was destroyed?" Chen Xiao questioned.    

    

Li Xian nodded and said: "Yes. "    

    

"What about Elder Bai Jun?" Chen Xiao continued to ask. At this moment, he already had an extremely bad premonition in his heart.    

    

"It's unknown whether he's dead or alive. There's no trace of him. However, judging from the current situation, it's likely that the odds are against him. Sigh, even one of the Tribulation Transcender Realm experts died at the hands of the Blood Demoness in that battle. " Li Xian spoke slowly, but he struck Chen Xiao's chest like a heavy hammer.    

    

It hurt, it hurt. He felt that he couldn't breathe anymore. It was extremely uncomfortable.    

    

He had never thought that the matter would escalate to such an extent. Even a Tribulation Immortal expert like Bai Jun would die on White Bone Island. This was too terrifying. The severity of the matter had far exceeded his expectations.
