Volume 2 The Remnant of Time Chapter 310 Forgiveness and Disobedience
watched Zhou Ling'er leave with Cao Lun.
Only then did everyone gather around Chu Qingxiao.
"Qingxiao, are you too impulsive today, although Zhou Ling'er was rude, but after all, she was the pearl of Zhou Sheng of Ganquan Peak, so humiliating, I'm afraid it will be difficult to be good in this matter."
"And you also cut off Cao Lun's arm, even if Gan Quanfeng is for his own face, he probably won't swallow this bitter fruit."
"It's not a good idea for us to make too many enemies right now."
Chu Zhaozhao looked at Chu Qingxiao and said.
Xue Sanniang also walked up, and she also said with some concern: "Moreover, any such a rhetoric as cultivating demonic skills can't stand scrutiny......"
Everyone didn't see the clues on Cao Lun's body, and naturally they didn't think that an inner disciple of the dignified Heavenly Hanging Mountain would practice such a vicious exercise, and they naturally subconsciously regarded Chu Qingxiao's words as a prevarication of Ganquanfeng.
It's just that the people of Ganquanfeng are not stupid, and they will inevitably retaliate next, which is not a good thing for Chu Qingxiao.
Chu Qingxiao turned back to look at everyone when he heard this, and was about to explain.
"It's nothing more than having anger in my heart, and I'm looking for someone to be angry! But that guy is really hateful, he will fight and fight, it's a big deal that we will run away now, so we don't have to stay here and be a cow and a horse for the Prison Division! Song Qingqing on the side interjected at this time.
Her previous dissatisfaction with Chu Qingxiao had dissipated a lot at this time.
But I still can't help but be hesitant about cooperating with the Heavenly Supervisor.
She said this very seriously at this time, and even faintly looked forward to it.
Chu Qingxiao smiled bitterly, he knew that if he insisted on going his own way and then put pressure on him as a sword leader, Song Qingqing would probably be reluctant, but in the future, in contact with the Prison Heaven Division, with Song Qingqing's temperament, he was not sure if he would secretly stumble and cause some unnecessary trouble.
Thinking of this, he was ready to explain to Song Qingqing.
But before the words could be spoken, there was a sound of footsteps at the gate of the courtyard that had been knocked openβit was clear that someone was gathering around here.
"Killed so soon?" When everyone heard this sound, their faces changed, and they secretly thought that Zhou Ling'er had gone and returned.
Chu Qingxiao hurriedly glanced at everyone, signaling them to be calm, and then walked to the gate of the courtyard.
But I saw that there was indeed a group of people standing at the gate of the courtyard, and they could be regarded as old acquaintances of Chu Qingxiao and the others - Xu Ran, the city lord of Jianyue City, and many of his disciples.
Xu Ran stood at the gate of the small courtyard, looking at the broken courtyard gate with a strange face, and the raised hand froze in place.
"What are you going to do?" Song Qingqing, who also stepped forward, also saw Xu Ran standing at the door, her brows furrowed, and her expression was not good.
Xu Ran was stunned, glanced at Song Qingqing with great meaning, turned his head to look at Chu Qingxiao, and said with a smile: "It seems that someone has visited Gongzi Chu before me." β
Chu Qingxiao was noncommittal about this, but just arched his hand and said: "There have been some changes in the family, which makes Lord Xu laugh." β
When he had said this, he stood where he was, and said no more, nor did he intend to invite him in.
Xu Ran didn't wait for Chu Qingxiao's invitation, but he was a little surprised, but he quickly reacted, glanced at Chu Qingxiao with interest, and did not show the slightest displeasure, but said with a smile: "Since it is inconvenient for Chu Gongzi to receive us and others, then I don't force it, so I will go straight to the point." β
"Please also ask Lord Xu Cheng to teach you." Chu Qingxiao replied.
"Jianyue City has the mission of suppressing the evil gods, and it has a great responsibility, and I and my disciples have been away from Jianyue City for more than a month, and we have been entrenched in this Hanging City for a long time, and many things are waiting for me to go back and deal with, so I am ready to leave Tianyue Mountain today."
"I came here today to say goodbye to Mr. Chu." Xu Ran said with a smile.
Chu Qingxiao didn't seem surprised by Xu Ran's words, he nodded casually, and said, "Then I wish City Lord Xu a smooth journey here." β
"The surname Chu, don't pretend to be confused there!" As soon as these words fell, the girl behind Xu Ran who thought she was about the same age as Song Qingqing suddenly stepped forward, looked at Chu Qingxiao with an indignant face and scolded angrily.
That's Xu Ran's daughter, Xu Yixiu.
"Yixiu! Don't be rude! Xu Ran frowned and said.
Chu Qingxiao waved his hand again and again, and at the same time asked Song Qingqing not to say much with his eyes, and then he looked at Xu Ran again and said: "It seems that the young city lord seems to have some misunderstanding about Zaixia, and he doesn't want to stay here longer, the time is not early, please Xu City Lord hurry up and get on the road, don't delay the trip." β
Chu Qingxiao's eviction order was extremely explicit, almost driving Xu Ran and his party away.
In this way, it naturally made Xu Yixiu more and more angry, the girl's eyes widened, and she looked at Chu Qingxiao viciously, but Chu Qingxiao looked at her nose and nose, and turned a blind eye to Xu Yixiu's gaze.
"The little girl's lack of discipline made Chu Gongzi smile." Xu Ran still looked as usual, and even said with a smile.
"But today I came to see Mr. Chu in addition to saying goodbye, there is indeed one more thing."
"I don't know the city lord of Xu, and I don't have any friendship, no matter what it is, I'm not interested in it, so the city lord of Xu still doesn't need to say it." Chu Qingxiao interrupted Xu Ran and put on a posture of rejecting people thousands of miles away.
This appearance of not entering the oil and salt naturally made that Xu Yixiu more and more angry.
"The surname is Chu! You! She stepped forward, the saber in her hand was unsheathed for three points, as if she was about to make a move on Chu Qingxiao, and when the people behind Chu Qingxiao saw this, they also pulled out their swords one after another, and looked at Xu Ran and his party with the same momentum.
The two sides are tense, and they are in a posture that they will fight at any time.
In the face of this situation, Xu Ran did not stop Xu Yixiu anymore, he restrained the smile on his face, the gaze in his eyes became cold, and he looked at Chu Qingxiao and said, "Master Chu, I have a lot of respect for you." This time, I think there is nothing wrong with the number of courtesies, is it a little too unkind for Chu Gongzi to do things like this? β
In the words, the meaning of intimidation has overflowed into words.
"How thoughtful is the courtesy?" Chu Qingxiao raised the corners of his mouth, glanced at the tense Jianyue City disciple in front of him, and said with a smile: "Come uninvited, and force each other, this is the courtesy in the mouth of the Lord of Xu City?" β
"Besides, no matter what the City Lord Xu wants to do, doesn't he have the right to refuse, which of the laws of Great Xia stipulates that if the City Lord Xu asks for anything, he must cooperate with the compromise?"
"Daddy! This person doesn't have oil and salt, there is no need to talk nonsense with him, we are dignified Xizhou sword armor, are we afraid that he will be a rebel? Xu Yixiu said loudly, obviously her dissatisfaction with Chu Qingxiao had reached the extreme.
"Phew! Minion! Dare to bark here! Song Qingqing naturally couldn't hear the word rebel the most, so he scolded immediately.
Both of them looked at each other angrily at this time, and they had a posture of wanting to eat each other alive.
And the tense atmosphere between the two sides is also rising at this time, and a big war is about to break out.
"Haha! What do you do? And at this moment, a hearty laugh suddenly came from behind the crowd.
A man with a full beard walked into the crowd at this moment, and he said with a smile, followed by several armor soldiers.
This person is not someone else, it is the commander of the Martial Prince's Mansion - Zhong Yuan!
Zhong Yuan walked between the two sides, and as soon as they saw each other, Xu Ran and the others immediately put away their respective blades, and Xu Ran bowed to Zhong Yuan respectfully, and said at the same time: "I've seen General Zhong." β
Zhong Yuan nodded, then looked at Chu Qingxiao again, and didn't speak, as if he was waiting for something.
Chu Qingxiao naturally understood what he meant, and immediately arched his hand towards the other party and said, "Chu Qingxiao has seen General Zhong. β
Hearing this, Zhong Yuan showed a satisfied smile.
He immediately said: "The two, one is the city lord of Jianyue City, who His Royal Highness the Martial King relies on, and the other is the survivor of Wuling City, who has just been identified, how can they be counted as having some origins, what do you have to say, what is the tension in the downtown of Hanging City in this day?" β
After that, he looked at Xu Ran again and asked with a straight face: "City Lord Xu, you are an elder, how can you be so self-conscious like a young man!" β
"If this spreads and says that you Jianyue City is a bully, then it will be bad for Jianyue City's reputation for hundreds of years!"
Xu Ran's face was terrified when he heard this, and he hurriedly said: "The general has learned that he is reckless. β
When Zhong Yuan heard this, his face softened a little, and he asked again: "Then let's talk about it, what is the reason for the conflict with Gongzi Chu?" β
Xu Ran said: "Tell the general, I came down today to ask for the dragon seal to return to Jianyue City. β
"But it's a pity that Chu Gongzi seems to be quite hostile to me, and he doesn't give me a chance to explain his intentions at all, so he wants to hurt people."
As soon as these words came out, Song Qingqing's face on the side suddenly changed, and his expression became more and more angry.
The Dragon Seal is the inheritance of Jianyue City, and she is naturally reluctant to give it to a traitor like Xu Ran with such a treasure.
She was almost about to have a seizure, but fortunately, Xue Sanniang on the side grabbed her.
"That's right." Zhong Yuan nodded when he heard this, his face showed a look of understanding, and then he turned his head to look at Chu Qingxiao and said, "Brother Chu, I don't think this Xu City Lord's request is too much. β
"This dragon seal is not only a thing inherited by Jianyue City, but also an important barrier for Jianyue City to exert the method of suppressing evil gods, this thing is useless for you, it is better to return it to Xu City Lord, it can be regarded as benefiting the people."
"Of course, City Lord Xu is by no means a stingy person, since you have found this thing for them, I think City Lord Xu will also return it with a heavy gift to show his gratitude."
"Really?" Zhong Yuan said and glanced at Xu Ran.
Xu Ran hurriedly nodded and said, "Naturally, I have five excellent pills here, all of which are expensive things, as well as ten thousand taels of silver, and ten good spirit swords......
Xu Ran said, and immediately asked the disciples behind him to bring up all kinds of rich gifts.
It can be described as dazzling, almost piling up the entire courtyard gate.
Zhong Yuan smiled, looked at Chu Qingxiao again, and said, "There is a way to be a gentleman's adult beauty." β
"City Lord Xu is so sincere, I think Brother Chu should return this thing to City Lord Xu."
The double reed play between Zhong Yuan and Xu Ran is very clumsy, and Chu Qingxiao naturally won't believe that Zhong Yuan happened to come here.
I wouldn't believe that Zhong Yuan really wanted to mediate.
He squinted his eyes and glanced at the smiling man in front of him, and then shook his head decisively: "This matter is difficult to obey." β
