C3845 Qin Zhenyun's Request
At this moment, the beasts started to fight against humanity. This was a sign of chaos.
No matter what, one should not overestimate human nature. Chen Xiao had already seen this before.
"Deputy City Lord, how do you think these mortals should be dealt with? If this continues for a long time, there will definitely be chaos." Qin Zhenyun glanced down a few times and said worriedly.
Chen Xiao turned his head and glanced at him, then said, "How do you want to deal with them? Chase all these mortals away?"
Qin Zhenyun smiled bitterly and said, "Doing this will solve the problem once and for all, but it is the worst option. If we do this, it will be bad for the Purple Cloud City's reputation."
Chen Xiao nodded slightly and said: "That's true. If you really do that, you will really be offending the world and will drown in saliva, Elder Qin."
"Yes, yes, yes. The Deputy City Lord is right, but..." Qin Zhenyun had a straight face. He wanted to say something but stopped himself.
Chen Xiao's face darkened, and he shouted, "If you have something to say, just say it. Why are you hesitating? It's very unpleasant."
After thinking for a while, Qin Zhenyun said, "I wonder if the Vice City Lord has heard any rumors recently?"
"Rumors? What rumors?" Chen Xiao asked curiously.
Seeing this, Qin Zhenyun's expression became even more bitter. He felt as if he had suffered a mute loss and said, "It seems that I really did commit a sin. I can't live."
Chen Xiao asked, "Interesting. What exactly is it that makes Elder Qin so distressed that he can't speak?"
Qin Zhenyun sighed and said: "Vice City Lord, you might not know this, but recently, the area around the Purple Cloud City hasn't been very peaceful. A lot of weird things have happened, and because of this, several Tribulation Transcenders from the Purple Cloud City have died. We sent people to investigate, but we didn't find any clues."
Chen Xiao's gaze froze. He was a little surprised. What kind of thing could make Qin Zhenyun so worried and helpless? There weren't many.
It even caused the death of the Tribulation Transcender from the Purple Cloud City. This was a big deal.
Therefore, he continued to ask, "Is it related to these mortals who are gathering more and more?"
"It has nothing to do with this. The enemy disguised themselves as a group of mortals and took the opportunity to cause trouble. When our people went to investigate, they were ambushed, and even a few Tribulation Transcender Elders were killed." Qin Zhenyun said with a green face.
In reality, this wasn't much of a problem for the Purple Cloud City. Even if they lost a few Tribulation Transcenders, they were only at the early stages of the Tribulation Transcender Realm.
The problem was that the damage wasn't much, but it was extremely humiliating.
Besides, the Purple Gold Marquis wasn't in the city at the moment. If news of this got out, all the cultivators of the Purple Cloud City would lose face. That was why they kept it a secret.
As a result, Chen Xiao had been in seclusion the entire time, so it was not strange that he knew so little.
Now that Qin Zhenyun had taken the initiative to tell Chen Xiao about this matter, he could no longer hide it. The purpose was self-evident. He wanted Chen Xiao to stand up for him and solve this problem.
Hearing this, Chen Xiao came back to his senses and said with a smile, "Elder Qin, you mean you want me to help you?"
Qin Zhenyun didn't hide anything and said, "Yes, that's right. Now that your strength has increased and you are the Deputy City Lord of the Purple Cloud City, you should do something to scare the others so that it will be easier for you to do things in the future."
"Heh." Hearing that, Chen Xiao smiled noncommittally and did not mind.
However, after thinking about it, he did not refuse. Instead, he asked, "This matter was really Old Man Qin's idea. In my opinion, if the Qin family's Tribulation Transcender took action, it should be easy to deal with such a trivial matter. Why did you ask me to take action?"
Could it be that Qin Zhenyun wanted to test him? Thinking of this, Chen Xiao's gaze darkened as he stared at Qin Zhenyun with a sharp gaze.
Qin Zhenyun lowered his head and said, "My Qin Family will naturally step forward for this matter. You just need to help him and increase your prestige."
"So, who will the Qin Family send this time?" Chen Xiao asked.
"Qin Daoyuan, what do you think?" Qin Zhenyun asked tentatively.
Chen Xiao's pupils shrank, the corner of his mouth curled up, and he laughed. He could roughly guess the Qin Family's intentions. They just wanted to get closer to him and Qin Daoyuan.
As the saying goes, one can see the truth in adversity. This kind of method was somewhat low-level.
However, he needed some fun, so he could relieve his depression. It was killing two birds with one stone. He didn't feel any burden to these evil cultivators.
He could even test the power of the Soul Stealing Sword.
If he didn't think of this idea, he would think that Qin Zhenyun had become a bug in his stomach.
"Alright," Chen Xiao nodded.
Qin Zhenyun was overjoyed and said, "It's good that you agree. I'll send him a message."
"No need," Chen Xiao suddenly said.
"Hmm?" Qin Zhenyun was stunned for a moment, puzzled. In the next moment, he keenly felt a familiar aura rapidly approaching.
He raised his head and saw a figure approaching. It was Qin Daoyuan.
"This..." Qin Zhenyun immediately looked at Chen Xiao, wanting to say something.
However, Chen Xiao did not care. He greeted him with a smile and said, "Big Brother Qin."
"Chen Xiao, you came out of seclusion so quickly?" When Qin Daoyuan saw this, he laughed and landed on the city wall. He was also a little surprised.
Seeing this, Qin Zhenyun finally heaved a sigh of relief. If Chen Xiao thought that he was scheming against him and they had a grudge against each other, then it would be a huge loss.
Fortunately, it seemed that Chen Xiao did not have such wild thoughts. Only then did he feel at ease.
After the two of them exchanged a few pleasantries, Chen Xiao said, "It's not good to always be in seclusion. I felt that there was no progress recently, so I came out to take a breather. How about you? How have you been?"
Qin Daoyuan laughed bitterly, looked at Chen Xiao with envy, and said: "I don't have your powerful methods. The news of you obtaining the Mysterious Heavenly Treasure has spread throughout the entire Quinan Province. You have now become a monstrous genius that everyone praises."
"Is that so? It's all just an empty title. Only one's own strength is the foundation of one's existence. Let's not talk about anything else," Chen Xiao said indifferently.
Even so, he still felt a bit of joy in his heart. Everyone had their own vanity, and he was no exception.
However, he was very introverted and did not like to show it.
Qin Daoyuan didn't ask too much about it. He just said, "Only you can be so indifferent. I can't. I have to run around and worry about the clan. Well, there has been some trouble recently."
"Are you talking about the evil cultivators causing trouble outside the city?" Chen Xiao's gaze darkened as he asked.
"Yes," Qin Daoyuan said with a serious expression.
