He knew very well that if he did not agree to Chen Xiao's conditions, they would definitely die.
Seeing that the other party was so cooperative, Chen Xiao was also happy. It was much easier than he had imagined.
Originally, he was not a bloodthirsty person. Since Zhuo Tai and the other villains had died and received the punishment they deserved, he naturally would not vent his anger on others. It was meaningless.
However, even if he could avoid death, he had to compensate with something else.
Chen Xiao stared at the other party without turning his eyes, and said with a sinister smile, "This matter is quite simple. Where is the treasury of your Huang Yan City?"
"..."
When everyone heard this, they blinked their eyes, thinking that they had heard wrongly.
"Ah?" The commander male cultivator was stunned, and his expression was filled with astonishment.
Chen Xiao's face turned cold, "What? Can't do it? Then you can go and die now. "
As he spoke, a sword energy appeared in his palm, ready to attack at any time and kill the other party.
A mere peak Tribulation Transcender Huang Yan City guard commander, if he died, so be it.
The commander male cultivator became anxious and hurriedly shouted, "I know, I know. Not only do I know where the treasury of Huang Yan City is, I also know the location of the City Lord's Mansion's treasury. I'll take you there, okay?"
Chen Xiao's eyes lit up, and he patted his shoulder, smiling, "Very good, it seems that you are very smart."
The commander male cultivator squeezed out an ugly smile, and he felt relieved in his heart.
Chen Xiao turned his head and said to Little Dragon, "Take him to retrieve the items. If he makes any unusual movements, kill him without mercy."
Little Dragon laughed sinisterly, "Yes, Big Brother."
"Xiao Hei, follow him and search for treasures," Chen Xiao said again.
Xiao Hei was released by him and nodded obediently, "Yes, Master."
"Mm."
The male cultivator's expression turned bitter when he saw this, and he did not dare to say another word.
As a demon, Little Dragon's body was filled with a murderous aura, and he was like a god of death. He was extremely intimidating, and he was even more afraid of Chen Xiao than he was of Chen Xiao.
Little Dragon stepped forward and grabbed the male cultivator's shoulder, saying, "Let's go, you lead the way."
"Yes, yes."
The two of them rushed towards the Huang Yan City Lord's Mansion together to search for the treasures in the city.
Chen Xiao's actions also caused quite a bit of criticism.
"How ruthless! Not only did he kill Zhuo Tai, he even wanted to steal the treasures of this city."
"Hmph, what do you know? Zhuo Tai was scheming to kill Lord Chen Xiao. Now that he was killed, he deserved it."
"How ruthless!"
Chen Xiao snorted coldly when he heard this. His expression was ice-cold, and everyone was immediately scared to the point of shutting their mouths.
"It's better for you to shut your stinky mouths. Zhuo Tai wanted to harm my family's captain, so his death is not a pity. Anyone who dares to absolve him of his crime will be punished with the same crime, and he will be killed without mercy."
Gu Feng opened his mouth and said sternly. The killing intent in his eyes could not be stopped.
He really did what he said. As long as someone dared to cause trouble and took the initiative to jump out, he didn't mind killing one to serve as a warning to the others.
"Captain, what should we do now? After killing so many people, what should we do if the Nine Sects pursue this matter?"
Gu Lanyue asked worriedly.
Under the watchful eyes of everyone present, killing so many Longevity Realm cultivators was something that couldn't be concealed no matter what.
Although Chen Xiao's killing of people had a reason, it would definitely cause a huge uproar if so many Longevity Realm cultivators were killed at once.
She was a little worried, but it was also within reason.
Especially that Zhuo Tai, as the City Lord of Huang Yan City, he probably had some background.
Thinking of this, Chen Xiao looked at Liu Yuanfeng at the side and asked, "Your name is..."
"Liu Yuanfeng, my lord." Liu Yuanfeng approached and said politely.
After witnessing Chen Xiao and the others' thunderous methods of killing Zhuo Tai, as long as he wasn't stupid, he would know what he should do and what he shouldn't do.
Chen Xiao nodded and remembered it. "Do you know what kind of background Zhuo Tai has?"
"My lord, I know a little."
"Oh? Speak."
"Yes, Zhuo Tai was once an elder of the Immortal Artifact Sect. Although his reputation was not prominent, he was still a true Longevity Five Tribulations cultivator. Several thousand years ago, he was appointed as the City Lord of Huang Yan City and stationed there.
On the surface, Zhuo Tai had severed contact with the Immortal Artifact Sect, but in private, he had quite a few contacts. This time..."
Speaking up to this point, Liu Yuanfeng stopped.
What happened after that was only his guess. He could not produce any concrete evidence, so he chose to stop there. Everyone knew what to do.
Chen Xiao smiled. "From the Immortal Weapon Sect? Heh, that's not surprising. Zhuo Tai's ambush this time must have something to do with the Immortal Weapon Sect. Hmph, so it turns out that the Immortal Weapon Sect wants to kill me."
Hearing that, Liu Yuanfeng quickly lowered his head, pretending not to hear anything.
He knew quite a bit about Chen Xiao's rumors. Chen Xiao and the Immortal Weapon Sect were mortal enemies, the kind that would not stop until one of them was dead.
He was not stupid enough to take the initiative to get involved. Once he was involved, the consequences would be unimaginable.
"Hmph, it really is the Immortal Weapon Sect. That bunch of bastards. That bastard Yi Yun really deserves to die."
Xiao Long cursed.
Liu Yuanfeng lowered his head even more, almost touching the ground. It was very comical.
Didn't hear, didn't hear, I didn't hear anything.
"Captain, was it really done by the Immortal Weapon Sect?" Gu Lanyue said uneasily.
Chen Xiao said indifferently, "It's very likely. This person doesn't dare to lie to me."
Ah?
Liu Yuanfeng's face turned black. He was so scared that he shivered. He quickly said, "How would I dare, Lord Chen Xiao? If I were to say half a lie, the heavens would be struck by lightning, and I would die a horrible death."
"Yes, I will remember it." Chen Xiao nodded.
Liu Yuanfeng's expression turned bitter, and it became even uglier.
Damn it, he almost got himself involved.
"Then, after we kill Zhuo Tai, will the Immortal Weapon Sect send people to take revenge?" Fu Xue asked.
Chen Xiao shook his head and said, "I bet that Yi Yun wouldn't dare."
"Big Brother, why is that? That old bastard Yi Yun even dared to order Zhuo Tai to kill us. He even joined forces with so many immortal-level itinerant cultivators to attack us. With such a large scale attack, he is now dead in our hands. Would the old bastard let this matter go?"
Xiao Long asked in puzzlement.
Chen Xiao laughed and said with a confident look, "If Yi Yun was truly confident, he wouldn't have only ordered Zhuo Tai to attack. It was because he didn't dare to shed all pretenses of cordiality that he only dared to use such despicable methods."
As the City Lord of Huang Yan City, there were many reasons why Zhuo Tai was ordered by Yi Yun.
Firstly, Zhuo Tai had a deep relationship with the Immortal Weapon Sect.
Secondly, Zhuo Tai was only at the Fifth Calamity of Longevity. His strength was not that great, so he would have to rely on the Immortal Weapon Sect to support him.
Under coercion and temptation, Zhuo Tai had no choice but to submit. This was probably the limit of what Yi Yun could do.
After this calamity, things would be much easier.
"Big Brother is wise." Xiao Long's eyes lit up, feeling that he had a point.
"Captain, let's leave first. It's not safe to stay here for too long. It's hard to say that Yi Yun will not resort to violence."
Gu Lanyue said coldly with a dark expression.
Her worry was not unreasonable. It was better to be more careful.
"Dog? These people are really crazy. They actually dare to call Yi Yun a dog."
"I didn't hear it. I didn't hear it. I didn't hear it at all."
Liu Yuanfeng muttered in his heart. He was greatly frightened. Today, he felt like he had gone through an incomparably terrifying nightmare. He just wanted to wake up quickly.
