Chapter 234: Seek Advantages and Avoid Disadvantages
Chu Xun has been a little distressed recently, mainly because of two things, but it can also be said to be one thing.
Chu Ruoxuan, the pearl in his palm, although he has grown up and can make decisions for himself, he will still worry about her, worry about whether she will be bullied by others outside, whether she will be wronged, whether she will encounter any danger, and so on.
However, he also sent someone to inquire about the place in Wuyun Town, but there was no unpleasant news about him, but there was something that surprised him deeply - Ding Jiusheng of Fusang City was actually arrested, and even the Jiusheng Pavilion was taken away.
What surprised him even more was that he didn't go to retaliate with anyone.
As he probed further, he was a little creepy, he no longer knew how the once weak Dark Cloud Town could suddenly become so strong - no one dared to retaliate after catching an alchemist.
You know, it's not an exaggeration to describe those alchemists as lawless. The Eastern Regions are not as good as the Southern Regions, and there is a lack of alchemists here, so the status of the alchemists here is very high, and a fourth-level alchemist, who is also a Shi Dan general, is already able to sit on an equal footing with a city lord like himself.
The spies he sent out, and the news that came back a few days later made him a little suspicious - this dark cloud town, the combat power can already compete with his own Qingyue City.
But immediately after that, he was dumbfounded - tens of thousands of 'adventurers', including many spirit monarchs, as for spirit shuai, there are countless of them, and then there are basically spirit masters and spirit generals.
This combat power can definitely destroy his own Qingyue City.
And the ensuing demon tide, and the battle between the two princes in the imperial court also reached his ears, and the disadvantaged third prince Dongfang Chang seemed to have reached some kind of cooperation with that dark cloud town - his own city lord didn't know what decision to make for a while.
Most of the city lords of the surrounding cities have confidence in the eldest prince, but few have confidence in the third prince, and the rest are neutral.
And his daughter is standing on the side of Wuyun Town, which cooperates with the third prince, and his Chu Xun's mouth is a little bitter - it was originally a matter of mutual affection, his own adult beauty, and the things of a gentleman, but it turned out to be like this. And once there is any variable, even if he beats the mandarin duck, he will not hesitate to do it, thinking that he is such a child.
"No, I have to call my daughter back and release him when the battle for imperial power has passed. My Chu family can't get involved, once I stand on the wrong team, it will be shattered, and the entire Chu family will be gone. โ
In the end, Chu Xun had to make such a decision.
And today, after receiving the news that his daughter Ruoxuan was about to come back, he was also a little happy, but after seeing that it was Cang Yu who accompanied his daughter back, his face was a little unsightly.
What are you afraid of, this is what Chu Xun thinks at this time.
However, he still had that ceremonial smile on his face, but he didn't have the enthusiasm he had before.
"Meet my uncle!" Cang Yu bowed slightly, and saluted Chu Xun, but Chu Xun only snorted slightly, which was considered a response.
"Dad, what made you unhappy, why did you see people so cold, not enthusiastic at all. Although Chu Ruoruoxuan noticed a trace of abnormality, she didn't think much about it, but eagerly went up and hugged Chu Xun's arm, looking coquettish.
However, Cang Yu was not so simple, his mind turned, and he also knew something, and then bowed slightly,
"The boy has sent Miss Ruoxuan today, so he won't bother anymore, uncle, the boy will leave. โ
And Chu Xun only nodded slightly, not saying much. As for Chu Ruoxuan, she was a little stunned, not knowing what happened between the two.
And Cang Yu, who was walking on the street, didn't take this matter to heart in his heart. He knew that Chu Xun must have his own hardships and ideas, but he would not be difficult to force others. Even if it is for the sake of Chu Ruoxuan's face, even if Chu Xun is not on the same front as him at that time, he will not blame him.
It is human nature to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages.
"Let's go see that little guy, it should be about the same. Isn't it a little bad to always let him stay at home--" Cang Yu walked slowly on the road, and Meng Meng, who was originally lying on Xiaoxue's back, suddenly had a big chicken leg in the innermost, eating while walking.
"Mengmeng, where did you steal the chicken legs? Forget it, even if you go back, people probably don't want it, don't you take it as an example, you know? We'll have a big dinner tonight, 100,000 spirit stones!"
Cang Yu held Meng Meng in his arms, and as for the chicken leg, when Cang Yu said the word "big meal", it was swallowed by Meng Meng.
Cang Yu hid his breath, walked into a courtyard, and saw that a young guy inside was still practicing swords there, and Cang Yu tiptoed up.
Murong Hanyue had been in Qingyue City for half a month, and in this half a month, in addition to fusing the memories of his previous life, he had begun to cultivate the Extreme Cold Wind Sword Duel.
But to be honest, the speed at which he cultivated this set of sword duels was really not to say. On the same day, he was able to use all the four sword duels, and in the following days, he continued to adapt to the Heavenly Wind and Frost Sword in his hand.
However, the Heavenly Wind Frost Sword that lost the machine spirit lost that handy feeling when it was cast, and while he sighed in his heart, he also missed the previous machine spirit - in the previous life, it should be the machine spirit that talked to him the most.
"Extreme Cold Wind Slash, Sword Rises Cold Wind!"
"Extreme cold, wind slashing, wind and frost all over the field!"
ยทยทยท
One sword after another was unleashed, and Dao Dao sword qi soon appeared in the courtyard, which was the result of his continuous suppression, otherwise this courtyard might have been destroyed by him.
At this time, there was a round of applause behind him,
"Yes, yes, this swordsmanship is much more majestic than mine. โ
Murong Hanyue's sword style turned sharply, and a sword stabbed directly at the person behind him, Cang Yu.
Cang Yu also took out a long sword, and did not use spiritual power, so he fought against it, and the sword styles used were improvised, the sword styles that he had learned, and the sword techniques created by Murong Hanyue.
The two fought extremely quickly, constantly shifting between attacking and letting go.
Murong Hanyue's straight sword stabbed at Cang Yu's chest, and Cang Yu blocked and swung the tip of the sword to the side, while Cang Yu's sword swung horizontally towards Murong Hanyue's neck.
Murong Hanyue drew his sword back to defense, leaned back slightly, dodging Cang Yu's sword, and then slashed at Cang Yu's chest and abdomen with another sword.
The two of them fought faster and faster, as if they were fighting liver fire. Later, it was the ping-pong that played together. The clash of weapons is just a spark, and between the two people, you come and go, and the move can be seen to be killed, but it is not a dead hand.
In the end, Cang Yu forced Murong Hanyue away with a sword, and he himself jumped backwards, opening up a distance from him.
"Yes, you can talk to me for a while. Cang Yu was very satisfied with Xiao Murong's performance.
"Hmph, I only used three points of strength, otherwise you wouldn't have been able to beat me. Xiao Murong dug his mouth, a little unconvinced.
"Do you think I've used all my strength, okay, little brother, don't you get bored and panic when you stay here?" Cang Yu smiled.
Xiao Murong pursed his mouth, obviously being rightly thought by Cang Yu.
"I'll go back tomorrow, you come with me, I'll take you somewhere and promise you'll like it there. โ
"You're not going to sell me, are you?" Xiao Murong looked suspicious, as if Cang Yu was so unbearable in his mind.
"Just a little Lingshuai, how much can you sell for?" Cang Yu slapped Xiao Murong casually, seeing that this kid did not dodge, and at the end he also regained some strength.
"It's not okay for you to do it behind closed doors at home like this, it seems that you are practicing the sword style superbly, but in the eyes of the real reality, it is just a fist and an embroidered leg. Martial artists will always have disputes with others, and the easiest solution is fists. Of course, I'm still a relative advocate of a peaceful solution, but few people listen to me. โ
"The place I'm going to take you to is in Dark Cloud Town, where there's an adventure party named Skywings. Once you're there, doing tasks with them will give you a lot of improvement. โ
There was a hint of ignorance in Xiao Murong's eyes, as if he didn't understand what Cang Yu said.
"You have to go out to practice, you can't always stay at home, I give you 200,000 spirit stones every month, you have to give me something, don't you?"
At this time, Xiao Murong suddenly understood.
"Do you feel distressed that I eat and drink yours here, and don't earn a penny? If you feel distressed, don't be my big brother, let's go our separate ways and go our separate ways. โ
"Well, don't you say I forgot--didn't you call me big brother?" another brain crash knocked on Xiao Murong's head.
"You--"
"Okay, it doesn't hurt. I'll take you away tomorrow, and you don't practice today, no matter how much you practice, you're no match for me. Pack your things and go, little brother!"
Cang Yu couldn't help but smile when he looked at Murong Hanyue's angry appearance. For this so-called reincarnation, he didn't know whether Murong Hanyue was Murong Hanyue or the previous Cold Wind Emperor, but Cang Yu himself felt that these two were one person, so he would treat him as a little Murong, anyway, he didn't know the so-called Cold Wind Emperor.
Murong Hanyue watched Cang Yu go away, silently put the long sword back into its scabbard, walked back to his room, and packed up the things inside.
He didn't dislike Cang Yu. In the previous life, he had seen so many people, those falsehoods and hypocrisies, deception and begging, he had seen so many that he no longer trusted others, and he did not want to trust others - so, in the previous life, he did not have a single friend.
In this life, before his memory awakened, he met Cang Yu, a guy who would beat himself without hesitation, a guy who could give up a sixth-order spirit weapon without hesitation, and a guy who would expel himself with 200,000 spirit stones a month.
"Forget it, believe him once, I can't beat it now, I can't run and run, I owe him a lot, go with him and see what that party is like. โ
