Peerless War God

"Greetings, Deputy City Lord."    

"We haven't met for just a few days, but you've already become the Deputy City Lord. The Lord Duke of Purple Gold has personally ordered this news to be spread throughout the city. I almost don't know you anymore."    

Qin Daoyuan walked forward and patted Chen Xiao's shoulder. He laughed and his eyes were filled with comfort.    

The other people who were familiar with Chen Xiao also immediately went forward to greet him. Chen Xiao greeted them one by one and did not dare to be negligent.    

Then, Chen Xiao replied, "Big Brother Qin, have you recovered from your injuries?"    

"I can't believe you're still thinking about it. I'm almost recovered, but compared to you, I'm still far behind. I heard that you even obtained the Mysterious Heavenly Treasure. Is this true?" Qin Daoyuan asked curiously.    

Some of the news about Chen Xiao had been sent back to the city by the Purple Gold Marquis, but most of them were vague. He only personally appointed him as the deputy city lord, which was unprecedented.    

Of course, some of the secret rumors were naturally spreading in secret.    

"Yes." Chen Xiao nodded and did not hide anything.    

This matter was not a big secret to begin with. Sooner or later, more people would find out about it.    

"Wow."    

"Oh my god."    

Seeing Chen Xiao's reaction, everyone exclaimed in shock. For a moment, the way they looked at him changed slightly, as if a hungry wolf had seen meat. They drooled and did not hide it at all.    

Among them, Qin Zhenyun was the most excited. He kept laughing out loud. His old face was like a blooming daisy. He had a different style, and the smile on his face never stopped.    

This time, he made the right bet.    

In fact, even he himself did not expect that Chen Xiao's growth would be so fast. It had only been a few days since he last saw him, but he had already obtained such a precious treasure like the Mysterious Sky Spiritual Treasure. His future was limitless.    

He could foresee that in the near future, he would step into the realm of immortality.    

This was a huge benefit for the Qin Family.    

Qin Zhenyun couldn't stop laughing and didn't stop. The other Tribulation Transcenders, on the other hand, had gloomy expressions on their faces. For example, the Liu Family and the Xiao Family had fought with Chen Xiao before.    

Fortunately, Chen Xiao only glanced at them and did not say anything else, which made them secretly heave a sigh of relief.    

"Fortunately, this kid is not a petty person and did not pursue the past grudges. Fortunately, I still have to apologize more later, or I won't be able to feel at ease."    

"It is just a question of how much I have to apologize to him. Alas!"    

Suddenly, some of them started to frown. They didn't feel good at all.    

Just as Chen Xiao was dealing with the Tribulation Transcenders, several streaks of light flew over from the distance. The one at the front was Yue Yao, Niching, Xiao Ling, and Qing Xuan.    

"Husband."    

"Husband."    

"Husband."    

The three girls shouted in a soft voice, as if their entire bodies were about to melt. This made Chen Xiao's heart feel great, and his mood immediately brightened.    

... "" All the Tribulation Transcenders.    

"Tsk tsk, how enviable. What a blessing." Qin Daoyuan held his chin and looked at this scene with a smile.    

"That's right. What a perfect match. How wonderful."    

"Deputy City Lord Chen Xiao's methods are really good. How enviable."    

Everyone began agreeing with him. Some of them were already planning to prepare gifts for the girls around Chen Xiao.    

Compared to Chen Xiao's unfathomable strength, which was as deep as a mountain and as deep as an abyss, it was difficult to get close to him. On the contrary, the women around Chen Xiao seemed to be easier to get close to.    

"This is good, very good."    

"Let's do it this way. We must build a good relationship with the women by Chen Xiao's side. We must not neglect them at all."    

"Yes, yes."    

...    

Finally, after entertaining the guests for more than half a day, Chen Xiao, who reeked of alcohol, finally sent these people away, and there was a moment of peace.    

In the great hall in front of the Immortal Mansion, a group of maids and guards were unhurriedly cleaning up the scene.    

In the backyard, Chen Xiao, the girls, Qing Xuan, Xiao Long, and Ah Yin were casually sitting and enjoying a rare moment of peace.    

"Come, brother, have some tea." Qing Xuan smiled and brought a cup of freshly brewed tea to Chen Xiao.    

Chen Xiao glanced at the condition of the magic power in Qing Xuan's body and couldn't help but laugh. It was exactly the same as when he had left earlier. There was no progress at all.    

He pretended to be unhappy and said, "Qing Xuan, you're being lazy again."    

"Brother, I'm not slacking off. It's just that my progress is slow. I'm not like you, who can improve so fast." Qing Xuan stuck out her tongue and defended herself.    

Yue Yao agreed and spoke up for Qing Xuan, "But you misunderstood her. These days, she really hasn't been slacking off, it's just that she hasn't made any progress."    

"Sister Yue Yao, sigh ~" Qing Xuan scolded, her face turning red with embarrassment.    

Although the others did not say anything, in her heart, she had always compared herself with Chen Xiao. However, the more she compared herself, the more disheartened she became.    

She really couldn't compare herself to him. Compared to Chen Xiao, she was far too inferior. It was hard for her not to be discouraged.    

"I can testify about this, husband." Xiao Ling squinted her eyes and laughed.    

Niching leaned against Chen Xiao's side and also nodded slightly.    

When Chen Xiao saw this, he smiled and said, "It seems like I really misjudged you, Qing Xuan."    

"Brother, I want to work hard too, but my cultivation has not improved at all. There's nothing I can do about it," Qing Xuan said dejectedly.    

Chen Xiao also saw that something was wrong with her and started to ease up, "Qing Xuan, you don't have to be so stressed. With me here, I will naturally ensure your safety."    

"Brother, you're so kind." Qing Xuan smiled.    

Chen Xiao chuckled and picked up the slightly cooler sobering tea. He took a sip and immediately felt a bitter and sour taste rush into his throat, causing his expression to change immediately.    

"Bah, it's so bitter."    

"Hehe, brother, this is specially made for you. It's delicious, right?" Qing Xuan teased him. Before Chen Xiao could make things difficult for her, she fled like a bird.    

Chen Xiao's face stiffened and he laughed again, "You actually plotted against me. Really."    

Of course, he did not blame him at all. Instead, he felt warm in his heart. This was what family should be like.    

Unlike the others, who were cautious to him, he didn't feel the distance between them, which was something he hated the most.    

The social event in the front hall was a hundred times more tiring than cultivation for him. It was not suitable for him after all.    

It was tiring. His heart was tired. He wasn't good at pretending to be polite and smiling.    

Thinking of this, Chen Xiao let out a long sigh of relief.    

When Yue Yao saw this, she blinked her beautiful eyes and revealed a look of concern as she asked, "Husband, is there something troubling you?"    

Chen Xiao sighed lightly and replied, "It's nothing. I just feel tired after returning to Purple Cloud City and having to deal with so many people."
