Be Passive In The High Martial World

Chapter 93 Thunder (two in one)

"The master is temporarily unable to receive guests."

Qingcuo said calmly:

"If you have anything, just tell me and I will convey it to you two."

Although Chen Kuang never said anything about asking her to be loyal, Qingcuo has completely regarded the former as his third master.

She tends to communicate more efficiently in person and stays silent most of the time, reporting only the necessary content or nodding in response.

However, when in front of other people, you must clearly define your position, otherwise it will cause a lot of trouble.

But...she doesn't care, but for a Sea Opening Realm to call a practitioner who has not even arrived at Innate a "master", it really subverts the cognition of ordinary people.

Zhou Yanwei, who was also from the Sea Opening Realm, twitched his lips and had an inexplicable misconception that the other party might also be a prince of some family.

He himself is the second prince of the Great Zhou, and only Lao Ma, who is already in his twilight years, is loyal to the Grandmaster level.

The last time he fought against the young and strong Di Wu, he was already beyond his capabilities.

Further down, there are actually countless people above the Sea Opening Realm. Most of them are driven by profit. They can do things for him, but they cannot sacrifice their lives for him.

First, he is inevitably suspected of being self-respecting. In order to hide his clumsiness, he must be careful and develop his own power without exposing himself too much.

The second is that if they are not trained from scratch, these masters have already been famous for many years and are all veterans, and their loyalty is difficult to guarantee.

Young masters like Qingcuo, who are arrogant and somewhat ambitious, want to compete with Canglang Ping. It is so easy to succumb to others.

It would be normal to say that the woman in front of her was a bodyguard sent by the Liang royal family to protect the little princess.

However, the "master" she refers to obviously refers to Chen Kuang.

This guy's ability is really extraordinary...

Without any background, he can make a young Sea Opening Realm willing to work as his maid.

If you had a little bit of background, would that be a big deal?

Zhou Yanwei and Lin Eryou looked at each other, and the latter handed over the list in his hand:

"This is a very important thing. Please give it to him, girl, and tell him that the people on this list are..."

Qingcuo took it, took a look, and said, "These are the people who will be sacrificed by the governor to the Lake Dragon King."

Lin Eryou was stunned and said: "You know... No, he guessed it?"

Qingcuo nodded and said:

"The master said that if you come to him, there is only one thing to do -"

"Save people."

As soon as Chen Kuang heard that they were going to the governor's house, he guessed their purpose.

First of all, it is definitely impossible for these two people to chat with the county governor, and secondly, it is impossible for them to cooperate.

Although Lin Eryou's purpose is unclear and his actions are uncertain, he is a very interesting person.

An interesting person will never do boring things.

And the county guard and the correctional officer were obviously boring people, doing boring things together.

Zhou Yanwei is a rare person who attaches great importance to love and justice, and has a chivalrous heart that is inconsistent with his status as a prince.

On that day, he thought Lin Eryou was going to expose Chen Kuang, so he stepped forward without hesitation to buy time for him to escape.

Funny and kind.

What can such a combination do if they go to the Sheriff's Mansion at this time?

Of course it can only be to save people.

But it is basically impossible for the two of them to save so many people.

What's more, there is also the issue of stance.

So Chen Kuang is sure that they will come to him again and bring him some good news.

And is there anything that can only be obtained by going to the governor's house or even meeting him face to face?

Chen Kuang thought there were only two things, one was the head of the county guard, and the other was the contents of the head of the county guard.

With the Cao Gang and the education officers here, the head of the county guard is useless, so... all that is left is what is in the head of the county guard.

For example, the complete list of people to be sacrificed.

Lin Eryou shook the feather fan in his hand and took a deep breath:

"Your master...what else did you say?"

He thought that there was absolutely no chance that Chen Kuang could guess his actions this time, at least he was a chess player playing against the opponent. But when he got here, he realized that he had been calculated so accurately that he was almost like a chess piece on the opponent's chessboard.

It turns out that Chen Kuang's previous performance was because he was caught off guard and got on the boat without much preparation?

However, this further supported his guess.

Behind Chen Kuang at this time, he has definitely contacted the remaining hidden power of Liang Guo at this time.

If there is no intelligence support, you can guess this point out of thin air. All the sects in the world that are good at Qiankun magic will worship Chen Kuang as their teacher...

But this also means that it will be more difficult to win over Chen Kuang.

Because Lin Eryou's current move would be an unexpected boost, and the weight of this bargaining chip would be even heavier.

However, Chen Kuang had guessed it all, which meant that he should know that Lin Eryou came with a purpose, so the latter could not occupy a dominant position.

Even... that hidden power should be able to do the same thing.

Just maybe a little later.

Whether they can be saved or not, whether they can save more or less, is a big difference.

And Zhou Yanwei now only feels that he was on the boat at that time, like a little white rabbit caught in a pack of wolves...

Fortunately, he actually wanted to save people at that time.

As a result, one or two of them were as scheming as the Netherworld Sea.

Qingcuo said: "He said that he will keep the two of you in mind for your help. If you want Ji Shao County, this is the right time."

"And if you want the entire Liang Kingdom, you might as well work harder and send us out. Then the dividends will naturally be distributed to the two of you. Whether it is more or less depends on how much you two can pay."

Lin Eryou blinked and smiled: "It seems that heroes have the same vision."

Qingcuo put away the list and said, "Do you two want to wait a little longer, or should you leave now?"

Zhou Yanwei looked at the sky and said, "Just wait."

They came with the purpose of helping the Chen family. Even if Chen Kuang is busy and doesn't see guests, there is no need for them to leave.

There are so many people, they can't save them, but they can still delay it for the Chen family.

Qingcuo nodded and made a gesture of invitation: "Then please move into the courtyard, and I will make tea for you two."

"The Chen family still has some troubles that I need to solve..."

At the door of Chen's house, a group of officers and soldiers lined up neatly.

An officer stepped forward and said loudly: "The Dragon King entrusted a dream to the county guard. The Chen family is full of people who need sacrifices! Come out all of them!"

The expressions of everyone in the Chen family who were in the hall suddenly changed.

At this moment, the Chen family's hall was already filled with some of the remaining belongings that had been counted. The gold, silver, and jade were so full that it was dazzling to see.

It can be seen that they have cleaned up as quickly as possible, but they are still a step late.

Chen Rong's face was dark: "The Cao Gang... are really so vicious! They actually want to do something absolutely right!"

Chen An looked firm: "Dad, I will never let anything happen to the Chen family today!"

Most of the people in the entire South Pier are from the Chen family, and they are ready to go.

In addition, he has already asked the "local official" for help. At this time, there is already an Innate and a nine-meridian master waiting for him.

It's just... I don't know if I can get out.

As the branch president, he knows best how powerful the Cao Gang is.

Gan Tang nervously grabbed Chen Ning next to him and hurriedly whispered: "Go and ask your eldest brother to leave through the back door quickly, and then he found it. Outsiders don't know about this, so they can hide it!"

She was so miserable inside that she couldn't wait until the child could truly calm down.

I haven’t made up for the wealth I gained during those thirteen years.

The Chen family was about to fall apart overnight...

Chen Ning looked pale, nodded, and was about to turn around and leave.

"etc!"

Chen Rong suddenly stopped her, took a deep breath, grabbed a handful of gold and silver coins from the side and stuffed them into Chen Ning's hand: "Follow your brother and don't come back!"

Chen Ning suddenly choked up: "Dad..."

Chen Rong said in a deep voice: "Your eldest brother is not simple. Neither your second brother nor I have been able to find out his identity over the years... If you follow him, you might have a greater chance of escaping."

"I couldn't forgive him back then. I asked him, a six-year-old baby, to save our family's lives. Naturally, I couldn't let him suffer with us again."

"Go, or it will be too late."

Chen Ning held back her tears, grabbed the gold and silver in her hand, gritted her teeth, turned around, and ran towards the east wing.

This is not the time for crying and loving children.

The eldest brother and father must have made such a decision after repeated deliberation. If she still hesitates now and says she won't leave, she will be too ignorant.

As soon as Chen Ning walked out of the hall, the officer outside lost patience, raised his hand high and ordered: "Break down the door!"

"Everyone go in and arrest people! Remember, arrest everyone you can see!"

"If you dare to resist, you will be punished on the spot!"

The so-called rectification of the law on the spot naturally means killing without mercy.

The two adults have already given orders, just for this day, you can kill without worrying about the consequences.

The only regret in the officer's heart is that killing people cannot be exchanged for credit...

Otherwise, he would have to kill everyone in the Chen family today to be happy!

"ah!"

The first person from the Chen family who saw him was a boy. When he saw the officers and soldiers barging in, he immediately turned pale with fright. He knelt down and begged for mercy: "My lord, have mercy on me! My lord, have mercy on me!"

The officers and soldiers at the front raised their swords with a grin, pierced the boy's chest with the sword, and shouted: "How dare you resist and hit me with your head? I think you want to die!"

The boy was stunned, looking down at the sword on his chest, blood streaming from his mouth: "I...I didn't resist..."

"boom!"

The officer and the soldier withdrew their swords and kicked the boy away. He hit the screen wall behind him and shed a pool of dazzling blood.

"Boom!"

A crack of thunder.

Dark clouds have covered the entire sky.

Similar things are happening in countless places throughout Jishao County.

On the building not far from the Chen Mansion, a white-browed Daoist with an immortal air was suspended in mid-air, holding up a dark soul flag in his hand.

The flags unfolded in the wind, and in an instant, countless gray resentful souls spewed out from it, surrounding him, and their momentum gradually increased.

It was Jingshan Daoist invited by the county magistrate.

Jingshan Daoist cast his gaze downwards and saw a little girl coming out of the hall and heading straight to the east wing.

And the east wing is naturally where Chen Kuang is.

"Haha... It's so affectionate."

Jingshan Daoist's eyebrows became more kind and he stroked his beard: "In that case, let's start with you."

The soul flag fluttered in his hand, and a large number of resentful souls rushed towards Chen Ning.

"Whoosh——"

A long sword suddenly flew over, Jingshan Daoist's expression changed, and the resentful spirit suddenly changed its direction: "Who is here!"

The resentful soul is in chaos, carrying poisonous mist, and wants to corrode everything in front of it.

The long sword had even more divine light. As it spun, it split open the chaos.

It's just that I can't stand the corrosiveness of the poisonous mist of the resentful soul, and it corrodes and melts in it.

Both will perish together and be eliminated together.

Qingcuo's figure was standing on the roof, looking at him calmly, without saying anything, and the next moment the figure had disappeared.

Jingshan Daoist’s face was solemn for a moment, but then he laughed again:

"It turns out it's just a Sea Opening Realm that has just broken through the realm...how brave!"

"Keng!"

Qingcuo changed his sword and struck Jingshan Daoist on the neck with one sword, making the sound of gold and iron clashing and sparks flying.

Daoist's head suddenly turned 180 degrees, looked at her strangely with that kind face, and said with a smile: "If I kill you, then Chen Kuang will have no helpers, right?"

Qingcuo thrust his sword into his mouth.

"vomit!"

Suddenly, a bunch of millipedes spurted out from Daoist's mouth and flew over.

These bugs have a strange appearance, and each one's body is actually filled with internal organs.

It looked as if a bunch of internal organs were spewed out of his mouth!

Qingcuo frowned: "The corpse refining method of the Blood Era Cult, you are a southern barbarian!"

Daoist was stunned: "How did you know?!"

Qingcuo said calmly: "You don't need to know."

With a twist of the long sword in her hand, she actually cut her arm open, letting the blood flow out, and then recited an obscure incantation.

Following this spell, all those visceral millipedes stagnated in mid-air, and then began to wither and shrink, losing their vitality!

They all fell down one by one...

Daoist's pupils tightened and he was shocked: "You...you are...no, stop!!! Stop! I can tell you an important news!!!"

Qingcuo didn't stop, she always cut the grass and roots without any hesitation.

In desperation, Daoist shouted: "It has something to do with that Chen Kuang!"

Qingcuo paused and said, "Hurry up."

…

"Boom!"

There was a loud noise like thunder, and Chen Kuang instantly felt a familiar sense of oppression, the smell of death.

Then...it was the familiar cell again.

One big and one small, looking at each other.

They're at it again.

Because of Chu Wenruo's scream, Chen Kuang's abnormal existence was discovered. Li Hongling, who was still alive in the environment, fell from the sky and knocked the two of them back to their birth point.

"Li Hongling only killed me, but this illusion also went back in time."

Chen Kuang touched his chin and said thoughtfully: "It seems that now the owner of the illusion is not only you, but also me."

The little princess calmed down and immediately grasped the key word: "Illusion?"
