Chapter 603: Return to Qingyuan City Again
Yunzhou, Qingyuan City, East City Gate.
Qingyuan City has two gates, east and west.
The gates are opened and closed at midnight.
Since the Yunzhou Qingtian Sect only directly manages the first-level and second-level cities, and the management of the third-level cities is relatively lax, and even does not send people to be stationed, the affairs of the city have always been handled by the strongest forces in the city, and the Qingtian Sect sends people to inspect every two months, and if nothing major happens, it will not be difficult.
However, the taxes in the city are still collected by the Qingtian Sect personally every year, and the local forces cannot do it on their behalf.
In the final analysis, local forces are superficially majestic and can enjoy local respect, but they do not reap much tangible benefits.
But what the local forces want is to be powerful on one side, it doesn't matter if they don't get much benefit, it doesn't hurt to work hard, at least it's very free, after all, the Qingtian Sect generally doesn't interfere in the affairs of such a low-level city.
And the Qingtian Sect does not need to pay manpower or material resources, and it can easily obtain benefits every year, and it is also happy.
So, this system has been continued.
......
Now it is the Huang family who is in charge of the affairs of Qingyuan City, and the guards at the city gate are naturally also the children of the Huang family.
The time had come, and the rest of the guards had left early, and the remaining two Huang family guards were preparing to close the city gate.
At this time, three rays of light suddenly appeared in the eastern sky.
"Look, what's that?" shouted one of the guards, pointing to the sudden light.
Another guard yawned and said, "Whatever, maybe it's the broom star! Hurry up and close the city gate and go back to rest! This day, from morning to night, I really want to be tired to death!"
The guard glared and said, "Wait!
The other was about to speak, but noticed a flash of light in front of him, and three figures appeared in front of the city gate out of thin air.
The two guards were stunned.
I saw that there were three people in total, two women and one man.
The man is tall and thin, wearing a black brocade robe, wearing a golden crown, sword eyebrows and starry eyes, very handsome, although his face is expressionless, but it gives people a feeling of not being angry and arrogant.
The two women are even more fascinating, they look like a country and a city, and they don't seem to be from the world.
A woman on the left is innocent-looking, with a delicate face, tall and slightly thin, wearing a long blue dress with crystal embellishments at the hem, which is very dazzling under the starlight.
On the right, the woman is charming, with a bewitching face, tall and plump, wearing a colorful palace dress, even in the dark, she still exudes dazzling brilliance.
The two daughters stand together, forming a strong contrast, giving people a sense of impact that goes straight to the heart.
"Is this Qingyuan City?" the woman in the blue dress blinked her big curious eyes and stared at the walls of Qingyuan City for a while.
The black-robed man nodded casually, and said with emotion: "Yes, Qingyuan City has not changed at all!"
The demonic woman suddenly frowned and said, "It seems that there are a large number of strong people gathered in the city! It stands to reason that a small city like Qingyuan City will not have a strong person of this level!"
The black-robed man suddenly smiled and said, "It seems that Feng'er's control of soul power has made great progress, and she noticed it so quickly!"
The strange woman shook her head and smiled: "I didn't perceive it with my soul power, but by intuition! However, the husband didn't look surprised at all, I guess he had already noticed it, right?
The black-robed man touched his chin and said, "Judging by the breath, it should be the Lingxiao Sword Sect and the Shura Palace." ”
"Oh, that's a coincidence, but we don't need to go to the Yunqing Plain to find them!" said the strange woman with a smile.
At this time, the woman in the blue dress suddenly looked at the black-robed man with a look of adoration and said, "Brother Gu Chen is so powerful, you don't need to look at it to know the identity of the other party!"
The black-robed man smiled: "Hehe, if they have the intention to hide their aura, it is difficult for me to know, but it seems that someone has already known that we are coming, so they deliberately revealed their aura!"
The demonic woman frowned and said, "Could it be that they learned about their husband's whereabouts through that piece of soul jade last time?" However, wasn't the soul power in that soul jade erased by the husband? It stands to reason that it shouldn't be noticed!"
The black-robed man was silent for a while when he heard this, and then said to the woman in the blue dress: "Ran Xi, do you have anything on you that was given by the Sword Immortal or Sect Master Luo?"
The woman in the blue dress nodded and said, "Yes, there are a lot! Last time in the Lingxiao Sword Sect, both the Sword Immortal and the Luo Sect Master gave me gifts!"
The black-robed man said thoughtfully: "This is not strange, there must be something that can be located!"
"Ah, why do they know where I am, do they want to spy on me?" said the woman in the blue dress with a look of surprise.
The black-robed man shook his head and said, "That's not true, it's just that you have a special identity, and they naturally want to ensure your safety in Lingxiao Mountain, so it is natural to want to know your location at any time!"
"Shall I find that thing then?" asked the woman in the blue dress as she turned to the black-robed man.
The black-robed man shook his head again and said, "Don't use it for the time being, they won't harm you, you can be known by them at any time, and your safety is more guaranteed!"
The woman in the blue dress pouted when she heard this, and said, "Okay then, but this feeling of being watched is really unpleasant, and when this is over, I will return all those things to them!"
......
Seeing that the three of them were chatting at the city gate as if no one was around, the two guards didn't dare to disturb for a while, let alone close the city gate, because although the guards didn't know the origin of the three people, the few names they said in the mouths of the three of them could scare people to death!
At this time, the strange woman dressed in a colorful group suddenly said: "Let's go to the city first! At this time, the city gate is half-covered, and it must be about to close!"
The black-robed man nodded when he heard this, and then walked towards the city with the second daughter.
Seeing the three of them coming, the two guards naturally couldn't turn a blind eye, and one of them hurriedly stepped forward and bowed respectfully and said, "We are the guards of Qingyuan City, I don't know where the three come from?
At this time, a noisy sound suddenly appeared on the avenue, and a group of dozens of people arrived in a hurry.
Seeing this, the two guards hurriedly bowed to the middle-aged man at the head: "See the head of the family!"
It was Huang Zhong, the head of the Huang family, who came.
Huang Zhong ignored the two guards, but hurriedly ran to the man and the two women, bowed down and bowed: "Huang Zhong, the head of the Huang family in Xiaqingyuan City, welcome your guests!"
"Huang Family Master, it's been a long time!" the black-robed man suddenly smiled at Huang Zhong.
Huang Zhong was stunned for a moment, then cautiously raised his head, looked at the black-robed man, and then showed a puzzled look and asked, "Your Excellency knows you?"
The black-robed man smiled, "I'm Gu Chen!"
"Gu ...... Gu Chen?" Huang Zhong suddenly weakened his legs, swallowed his saliva and said: "It turned out that Sect Master Gu was here, and he was clumsy at the next moment, and he didn't recognize it, so please don't blame Sect Leader Gu!"
Gu Chen waved his hand and said: "The head of the Huang family doesn't have to be so restrained, I think that once, my Gu family used to live in Qingyuan City with your Huang family, although the relationship between the two families has never been harmonious, but it is only a competitive relationship, not an enemy!
Huang Zhong nodded again and again and said: "Yes, yes, Sect Master Gu is as broad-minded as the sea, and I admire it a lot! It used to be my Huang family, who tried to compete with the Gu family in vain, but fortunately, the Gu family has always been tolerant and has not bothered with us, and I have always been grateful for this!"
Gu Chen waved his hand again and said, "Okay, there is no need to say these polite words! Presumably, the masters of the Lingxiao Sword Sect and the Shura Hall are all in Qingyuan City now, right? Can the Huang family master lead the way?"
Huang Zhong hurriedly replied: "The masters of the Lingxiao Sword Sect and the Shura Hall are all resting in my Huang family, at this time my Huang family is setting up a banquet to entertain all the distinguished guests, Sect Master Luo said that there is a distinguished guest coming, so he asked the next person to come here to greet him in person, but he did not say that the distinguished guest is the Gu sect leader!
Gu Chen nodded and said, "In this way, I will disturb the Huang family master, please ask the Huang family master to lead the way!"
Huang Zhong waved his hand again and again: "Don't dare, don't dare!
Subsequently, Huang Zhong led the way for Gu Chen and the others in front and went to Huang's house.
On the way, Huang Zhong suddenly asked Gu Chen, "Sect Leader Gu, I don't know if these two are Mrs. Venerable?"
Huang Zhong saw that Feng Rinwu and Long Ranxi's two daughters behaved intimately with Gu Chen, so he asked.
Gu Chen nodded and said, "They are all my fiancées!"
Huang Zhong was stunned for a moment, he knew that Gu Chen had three wives who were as beautiful as flowers and famous in Jiuzhou, and these two women were also called alluring to the country, Huang Zhong originally thought that Feng Rinwu and Long Ranxi were two of Gu Chen's three wives, but he didn't expect it to be not! It was Gu Chen's fiancée! Such a beauty can have no regrets in this life, and Gu Chen actually has five people! What kind of spring breeze is this? It is worthy of being the master of the Pantheistic Sect! Fortunately, my Huang family was quite measured before, and I didn't completely offend the Gu family, otherwise, wouldn't it be easy for Gu Chen to find trouble?
Huang Zhong said with a smile: "Sect Master Gu is really blessed!"
Gu Chen smiled and didn't answer.
Then, Gu Chen suddenly asked Huang Zhong: "By the way, Huang family master, I don't know what happened to my Gu family's mansion now?"
"Oh!" Huang Zhong patted his forehead and said, "Look at my brain, I was just about to say it, but I forgot it when I got to my mouth!"
After Huang Zhong paused, he continued: "Since a few years ago, Sect Leader Gu returned to Qingyuan City and asked the little child Huang Xiu to bring a message to his father, my father listened to Sect Leader Gu's advice and changed the way he governed Qingyuan City. Since then, Qingyuan City has become better and better, the flow of people has become larger and larger, and my Huang family has become stronger and stronger! All this is thanks to the teachings of Sect Master Gu! My Huang family is grateful for the kindness of Sect Leader Gu, so they have taken down the Gu family's mansion and taken care of it day and night. But Sect Master Gu rest assured, we are definitely not taking the Gu family's mansion as our own, we are just guarding the family business here for the Gu family!"
Gu Chen nodded and said: "The head of the Huang family has a heart! In fact, the Huang family doesn't have to work so hard, the Gu family has settled in Yuezhou, and I am afraid that they will never return to Qingyuan City in the future, although it is a thought to keep the Gu family's mansion, but it is a waste to be so deserted! If the Huang family can use it, they can use it at will!"
Huang Zhong waved his hand again and again: "Don't dare, don't dare! If my Huang family uses the Gu family's old residence, I'm afraid that I will be spurned by the residents of Qingyuan City at the first time! You may not know that the Gu family has now become the pride of all Qingyuan City residents! Although they dare not talk about this matter openly due to the deterrence of the Qingtian Sect, in private, who is not proud of the Gu family? The Gu Sect Leader went to Yuezhou to establish the Pantheistic Sect, destroy the Heavenly Demon Sect, and replace it, and the Tianyuan Festival of the Pantheistic Sect will become famous all over the world! These kinds of deeds are all the words that the residents of Qingyuan City are proud of!"
