Peerless War God

"Elder Chen Xiao's words make sense. Under the current situation, we should still save our lives. There's no need to fight it head-on, right? Hehe. " Su Qi laughed.    

"Yes."    

Chen Xiao also laughed when he heard that. After the two of them looked at each other, they laughed even more happily. Even the air was filled with a cheerful atmosphere.    

After that, the two of them seemed to have formed some kind of tacit understanding. They did not say another word and seemed to have a tacit understanding.    

Just like that, about half a day later, the two of them arrived at a trading company stronghold in the inner sea of White Stone City.    

This was a small island that gathered many people from Trade Associations. It could be considered a small trade market, but whether it was in terms of scale or the strength and cultivation of the cultivators on the island, these were all very far from White Stone City's Treasure Tower.    

Even a late stage sage realm cultivator could be called an expert in this place. The things that were circulating and trading on this small island were mostly things that weren't so precious or valuable. So, they could be considered to be interchangeable.    

In fact, it could be said that there were even more rogue cultivators on this small island besides the people of the Redbud Chamber of Commerce.    

These rogue cultivators set up stalls on the island of the stronghold. They bought and sold things that they didn't need or didn't need. The Redbud Chamber of Commerce maintained order on the side. So, they complemented each other.    

It was much cheaper than inside the White Stone City. Although the White Stone City was very safe and bustling, it was also expensive. Apart from those wealthy and powerful cultivators, many rogue cultivators didn't have the ability to enter the city.    

Back then, Chen Xiao had stayed in many places like this, and he actually felt a sense of familiarity.    

In the main hall in the center of the island, Chen Xiao sat on the throne at the head of the hall. There were several gorgeously dressed maids on his left and right, serving him.    

Below him, a young cultivator was carefully standing. He was very careful, and didn't even dare to breathe loudly.    

One should know that Chen Xiao's status and identity had changed a long time ago. The young cultivator naturally wouldn't dare to show any disrespect, fearing that he would offend the master and bring disaster upon himself.    

Chen Xiao had the same feeling before, and there were many of them. The feeling of being reliant on someone's breath wasn't pleasant. But now, both of them had changed their positions. It was a completely different feeling.    

"You are the person in charge of this stronghold?" Chen Xiao looked down from above and looked at the other party indifferently.    

As for Su Qi, he stood at the side below and stared at this person expressionlessly. He did not express much.    

"Yes, Elder. If you have any orders, feel free to speak. I will do my best." The young cultivator quickly said.    

Chen Xiao didn't waste any time and asked, "The place where the merchant ship was killed was the closest to your place. I have already ordered you to send someone to investigate it. Do you have any clues?"    

After the merchant ship got into trouble, Senior Sister Huo Yuan was furious. She immediately ordered all forces to investigate any possible clues.    

It was because of this investigation that the evil cultivators of Yama Island gradually surfaced.    

But at the same time, they encountered great resistance and danger. One should know that Yama Island was an existence that many cultivators were afraid of. The terror of the evil cultivators could be seen from this. Not everyone had the ability to do so. They also didn't dare to investigate further.    

The person in charge of this stronghold was only a cultivator at the peak of the Prominent Divine Stage. It was unrealistic to expect such an existence to investigate the Yama Island in depth.    

Naturally, Chen Xiao was just casually asking. He wouldn't really expect the other party to obtain any useful information.    

Sure enough, the young cultivator had a troubled expression on his face when he heard this. He hurriedly said, "Elder, please investigate this matter. Our strength is low. We didn't manage to obtain any useful information. Elder, please forgive us."    

"Hmph, a bunch of useless trash." When Su Qi saw this, he disdainfully said this.    

When the young cultivator heard this, he was so scared that his body trembled, and his face turned completely pale.    

He was truly afraid. After all, it was rare for him to be able to face a Tribulation Transcender at such a close distance. Especially when it came to Chen Xiao, the new elder of the Treasure Tower, what kind of temperament did he have? He didn't know what joy and anger were, but if he said something wrong... It would be beyond redemption.    

The young cultivator was trembling with fear as he stood below. His entire body was tense to the extreme.    

However, Chen Xiao, who was sitting on the top, only curled his lips and smiled faintly. He didn't care about it at all and said, "It doesn't matter. Just tell me what you have found out."    

"This, this is, Elder Chen. This is some information that we have gathered recently. Please take a look at it."    

The young cultivator said. He stretched out both of his hands and an ordinary jade slip appeared in his hand out of thin air.    

Chen Xiao's eyes flickered. He stretched out his right hand and grabbed at the air. The jade slip appeared in his hand, and with a sweep of his Divine Sense, he instantly got the information.    

It had to be said that the people of this stronghold really didn't have any useful information. Most of them were trivial matters.    

For example, they had discovered the whereabouts of the suspected evil cultivators of Yama Island in a certain area outside one day. Moreover, they had also marked out a specific location on the map in great detail.    

This way, as long as one tapped on the panoramic map slightly, it would be very easy to investigate.    

However, from this point of view, it showed that this person was quite meticulous and careful in his work. He didn't dare to slack off at all. Chen Xiao approved of this attitude and wouldn't make things difficult for him anymore.    

Most of this information was about the whereabouts of Yama Island, the Blood Butcher, or the Ghost Corpse Sect, the three major evil cultivator powers. Where did they appear, or who they harmed, or who they killed.    

However, in just a month or two, the chief of this stronghold had found that more than a hundred cultivators had died in the hands of the three major evil forces. And this was only the information gathered by a small stronghold. If it was magnified to the entire White Stone City's sea region... It was afraid that even more cultivators had died in the hands of the three great evil cultivators.    

It could be seen that the brutality and terror of evil cultivators was truly everyone had the right to punish them, and it caused people to hate them deeply.    

Chen Xiao studied them carefully. After a long while, he raised his head and looked at the young cultivator below who had been respectful and silent for a long time. He then said.    

"You have done a good job. This information is still useful."    

"Yes, yes. As long as you are satisfied with it, Elder."    

Hearing Chen Xiao's words, the young cultivator heaved a long sigh of relief. He was finally relieved. He was afraid that Chen Xiao would deliberately make things difficult for him. If that happened, he would be in deep trouble.    

From the beginning to the end, Su Qi didn't say anything. Instead, he watched everything silently. Chen Xiao didn't give him a chance to speak. He stood up from his seat.    

"Su Qi, let's go. There's nothing here that I need anymore."    

"Yes." Su Qi agreed.    

Immediately, the two of them flashed out of the island and continued to rush to the place where the events of the past happened.
