C4021 Chapter 3 of the Covenant

1Chen Xiao quickly came up with an excuse.    

    

He had to admit that this excuse was not bad. It was very suitable and reasonable.    

    

However, he would have to offend Lord Zi Jing to play the role of a shield.    

    

"Zi Jing? Hmph, if that's the case, then forget it. You can take care of yourself."    

    

After saying that, Yi Tianren turned around and left. He no longer paid any attention to Chen Xiao. In his heart, he had already sent Chen Xiao to death.    

    

Chen Xiao was not aware of this.    

    

"Hu ~"    

    

Seeing Yi Tianren leave, Chen Xiao finally got over it. He let out a long sigh. Fortunately, the other party did not keep pestering him. It seemed that he was just testing him.    

    

For a moment, the noise returned to normal. It was even louder. The cultivators present all focused on Chen Xiao. Some were envious, some were sighing, some were gloating, and some were puzzled.    

    

But without a doubt, Chen Xiao was the most dazzling cultivator in the City Lord Palace tonight.    

    

Fu Zhenghong walked closer and looked at Chen Xiao from head to toe. Only when he felt uncomfortable did he let out a heavy sigh.    

    

"Why are you sighing, Old Madam?" Chen Xiao asked.    

    

Fu Zhenghong rolled her eyes and said, "Do you know that you rejected Yi Tianren's invitation in front of so many immortal-level cultivators and lost his face? In the future, you will be unable to do anything in the Divine Realm. The Yi Clan's power is even more terrifying than you think. It's one of the four great clans of the Immortal Weapon Sect. Sigh."    

    

Chen Xiao did not care. He sneered and said, "If I was someone who was afraid of trouble, I wouldn't have come to this day. My old lady's worry is unnecessary."    

    

Fu Zhenghong shook his head and said, "I just don't want you to get involved in unnecessary fights, especially for a big clan like the Yi Clan. You should be more tolerant."    

    

After Chen Xiao heard this, he thought about it.    

    

He thought about the matter of the Wu Yong brothers. At that time, Wu Yong had already been very tolerant, but in the end, what happened?    

    

Yi Qianling did not let Wu Yong go, and he did not even show mercy.    

    

Rather than waiting for others to give him charity, it was better for him to take the initiative to take it himself. He had understood this principle a long time ago.    

    

"Yes, what the old lady said is correct." Chen Xiao smiled and replied.    

    

Fu Zhenghong knew that he did not listen to him, so he did not try to persuade him. He only warned him, "Yi Tianren probably has other intentions, and is deliberately testing you. You have to be careful."    

    

"Yes, at least it's safe in the city. He won't act rashly."    

    

Chen Xiao said with a calm expression.    

    

Hearing this, Fu Zhenghong's eyes widened, and she said, "You really have a grudge with the Yi Clan?"    

    

"Not really. It's just that we don't get along well."    

    

"You …"    

    

Fu Zhenghong was startled, but she did not say it out loud. She knew that Chen Xiao was a very assertive person. There was no need to say it out loud.    

    

Chen Xiao suddenly smiled relaxedly and asked, "Oh right, how did I perform just now? I didn't get caught, right?"    

    

Fu Zhenghong smiled helplessly and said, "You are very nervous, afraid that Yi Tianren will see through you."    

    

Chen Xiao didn't believe it and asked, "You're really that nervous, even you can see through me?"    

    

"Yes, it's very easy to see through me."    

    

"..."    

    

This time, it seemed that things were getting worse.    

    

On the other side, Yi Qianling became anxious when he saw that Yi Tianren had returned without achieving anything.    

    

"Grandfather, it really is that guy, a really ungrateful dog. Hmph."    

    

Yi Tianren smiled and turned around, touching Yi Qianling's head as if he was thinking about something.    

    

Yi Qianling only felt his entire body tremble, his hair standing on end. At this time, it was the most terrifying and fearful time in his heart.    

    

"Grandfather?"    

    

Yi Qianling's eyes were filled with worry as he looked at Yi Tianren.    

    

"It's nothing, this person is very guilty, it's a bit strange. Since he can't be used by me, then I should get rid of him quickly."    

    

"Grandfather, you agreed? That's great, kill him, he must be the masked cultivator from that day, help me vent my anger on him. Oh right, I also heard that the two guys from the Dragon Palace seem to have a grudge with Chen Xiao, how about it?"    

    

"Is that so? Very good, my grandson has become smart and knows how to use a knife to kill. Grandfather is very happy, I'll do as you say."    

    

"En, thank you, Grandfather."    

    

"Haha."    

    

The banquet continued. On the surface, it seemed that everything was fine, but in fact, the undercurrent was already surging.    

    

Especially when Yi Tianren failed to win over Chen Xiao and was rejected instead, the Immortality Realm cultivators were all separated from Chen Xiao and Fu Zhenghong. They didn't dare to get close to them, lest they get burned.    

    

As a result, the two of them were a lot more peaceful.    

    

"It seems that you are right. These people are afraid of Yi Tianren, like a mouse seeing a cat. Hehe."    

    

Chen Xiao looked around and sneered.    

    

"What? You know fear now? It's a pity that it's too late. You have already offended Yi Tianren. If your identity as a masked cultivator was seen through, that little bastard Yi Qianling wouldn't let you go."    

    

Fu Zhenghong gloated.    

    

She really wanted to see Chen Xiao make a fool of himself. All this time, Chen Xiao had given her too much of an impression that he was too calm, not like a young and successful Immortality Realm cultivator.    

    

"I don't want to either." Chen Xiao spread out his hands and said helplessly.    

    

While he was talking, he heard a loud voice.    

    

"The City Lord is here."    

    

"The City Lord is here."    

    

The City Lord is here.    

    

Hearing this, Chen Xiao squinted his eyes and made up his mind, "The main character today is finally here."    

    

Although Yi Tianren was the Deputy City Lord, his power was still inferior to the Floating Cloud City Lord. Although he was the Deputy City Lord, he was still a bit lacking.    

    

Seeing the handsome and extraordinary Floating Cloud City Lord, Chen Xiao finally understood what was lacking.    

    

The difference was the magnanimity and tolerance.    

    

"Greetings, City Lord of Floating Cloud City."    

    

"Greetings, City Lord."    

    

"Greetings, City Lord!"    

    

Everyone greeted him one after another. Chen Xiao also slightly bowed, not daring to be negligent.    

    

The City Lord's gaze was calm, like the vast sea, or the boundless starry sky, full of profoundness. His gaze slowly swept across everyone, pausing on Chen Xiao for two breaths, then moving away.    

    

The City Lord did not put on airs, and very warmly exchanged pleasantries with everyone.    

    

When the atmosphere reached its most enthusiastic moment, the City Lord cleared his throat and said to everyone, "This time, I, Floating Cloud, thank everyone for coming to enjoy the show."    

    

"City Lord is too polite."    

    

"City Lord is too polite!"    

    

Everyone also responded enthusiastically.    

    

The City Lord's face was full of smiles. After a pause, he continued, "There have been a lot of things happening in this period of time, and it can be said to be a period of many things. Everyone should know what to do, but in this small Floating Cloud City, I want to make three rules with everyone. No matter what grudges you have, you are not allowed to fight in the city. Please give me some face."    

    

The Floating Cloud City Lord's words were like a spear and a club. Anyone with a discerning eye would know that he was hinting at Yi Tianren.    

    

When Yi Tianren heard this, his face turned black, and he frowned and did not say a word.
