Chapter 260: Selection
The prosperity of the big city has faded, and high-rise buildings are everywhere, with all kinds of half-ancient and half-modern buildings. The streets and alleys are bustling and noisy with people coming and going.
Chen Xuan opened up his perception, covering an area of nearly twenty miles, and wandered around the city, using the dumbest yet most effective method to search for Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing.
An hour later, he had almost toured the entire city, but returned empty-handed and found no trace of the two men.
As expected, just as Qian Renxue expected, Zhu Zhuqing and Xiao Wu were just passing by here and could not have stayed for long, so they left long ago.
"Forget it, let's take a day off first." Now that he had arrived in Xingluo, Chen Xuan felt at ease and was not too worried.
Along the way, he traveled at three times the speed of sound, almost without stopping. Even if he had a lot of soul power, it was almost exhausted.
Chen Xuan thought again. He had caused quite a bit of trouble recently. First, he killed the Heaven Dou Emperor Xue Ye, and then he killed Tang San in front of the Sea God. It could be said that he was famous, but it was a negative one.
Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing heard about his deeds and might have been looking for him. They showed up at his home a few days later.
"Uh..." Thinking of this, Chen Xuan felt that he was daydreaming. In the entire continent, except Qian Renxue, no one knew where he lived.
He found a hotel to stay in and planned to set off again tomorrow. The most important thing at the moment was to rest.
In the room, Chen Xuan was recovering his soul power while thinking that the continent was so big that it was impossible to guess the location of Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing.
Ask people? It's not that he hadn't thought about it, but he felt that it wouldn't work. Even if he could get some information, it would be meaningless when he got to that place.
His current situation is like looking for a needle in a haystack, but it is not hopeless.
"If I were Zhu Qing..." Chen Xuan put himself in the perspective of the two people and returned to the mainland. No matter how important the matter was, he had to go back to the first place where he lived...which was Xingluo City.
The more he thought about it, the more likely it seemed. Maybe Xiao Wu and Da Zhuqing were already in the land allocated to them in Xingluo City.
Chen Xuan decided to go to Xingluo City after his soul power recovered.
……
There was no conversation that night, and the next day came in a blink of an eye.
Chen Xuan set off, riding the Flying Thunder God into the sky, crossing half the sky, leaving the big city and heading for the nearest Xingluo City, which was more than 200 miles away.
Although he did not break the sound barrier, his speed was still quite fast. It took him only about an hour to reach his destination.
Xingluo City is the largest city in the Xingluo Empire. The place Chen Xuan had set foot on before can only be regarded as a small city here, not on the same level.
To be precise, Xingluo City is a combination of several large cities, and its actual coverage area reaches hundreds of miles, which is very vast.
The city gate is topped by a huge city wall, which is over a hundred meters high. It is thick and magnificent. In fact, it is similar to the fourth stage of Susanoo.
Xingluo City is where most dignitaries, royal family members, clans and other forces live. Nobles account for the largest proportion, and it is heavily guarded, with guards several times more than ordinary cities.
Look, Chen Xuan had just landed and hadn’t even been in the city for long when he was discovered.
A group of ten knights came and quickly surrounded him with armor and weapons.
A burly general stared at him with vigilance in his eyes and felt that he looked very familiar.
"You are... Chen Xuan!" General Xing Luo recognized his identity, and then his face turned pale and a chill ran down his spine.
When the others heard this, they were shocked and took a few steps back, looking at him warily.
Chen Xuan glanced at the general and recognized his identity. In Xilu City, he had led troops to protect Davis and Zhu Zhuyun against powerful enemies. However, it was in another battlefield, not the area where he dueled with Tang San.
"Chen Xuan, what are you doing here?" General Xing Luo asked tentatively, but he was very frightened in his heart.
Although this man had saved the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess, he had heard clearly how cruel the other party was.
He was very worried. This person had killed Tiandou Emperor Xue Ye and now he came to Xingluo City. Could he be here to kill His Majesty?
Xingluo has no title, but no one can stop the other party.
"Don't worry, I'm just here to look for someone. Just don't stop me." Chen Xuan said. As long as no one was doing anything crazy in front of him, he certainly didn't want to kill people everywhere.
Hearing this, General Xingluo heaved a sigh of relief, and bowed to Chen Xuan, saying, "Of course I don't dare. Brother Chen, although my status in Xingluo City is not as high as that of a noble, I still have a say in the army. Who are you looking for? Perhaps we can help."
He was showing goodwill and lowering his posture, and he really didn't want to provoke this devil.
"Xiao Wu, Zhu Zhuqing, she was once the princess consort of the third prince." Chen Xuan informed.
"The Third Prince?" The soldiers were stunned, some of them were unable to react.
They haven't heard this name for many years, but they have heard the name Zhu Zhuqing frequently recently and can say that they are familiar with it.
General Xing Luo's eyes changed slightly. He opened his mouth and then closed it tightly, as if he wanted to say something but hesitated. After a long time, he tentatively opened his mouth and said, "Brother Chen, may I ask if you know them? What is your relationship with them?"
"Just tell me straight, I hope nothing happened to them!" Chen Xuan was eager to know about their situation.
At the same time, he was very glad that he came to the right place. Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing were indeed in Xingluo City and had not left.
"The two fairies Zhu Zhuqing and Xiao Wu are very good and charming. Your Majesty and the Zhu family care about them very much. They came back recently and the Zhu family is preparing to choose husbands for them." General Xingluo said.
He explained that those two women were extremely beautiful, stunningly beautiful, and were the two most beautiful women in Xingluo City. They were as stunning as fairies, so they were given the title of "fairies" by the royal nobles and clan disciples. The title was not given by him.
"Damn it!" Chen Xuan was so furious that he exploded on the spot, filled with murderous intent. These people were thinking about his wife, they must be tired of living!
A young knight asked in confusion: "Brother Chen, why are you so excited? Although they are women, they are powerful and incomparable, and they are also beautiful. If they are combined with powerful spirit masters, the children born will definitely be gifted and powerful. In the future, they will be able to stand out from the crowd, just like the little girl Chen Qiuer back then, who suddenly appeared out of nowhere and was invincible in the same realm. This is very beneficial to the Xing Luo Empire..."
As a result, before he could finish his words, Chen Xuan slapped him on the forehead, causing him to see stars. He flew sideways and hit a wall, with his body embedded in it.
If the force was a little greater, his head would have cracked open and he would have died on the spot.
General Xing Luo's eyes shone, and he lowered his voice and asked, "Brother Chen, what do you mean? I don't think my subordinates have done anything to offend you."
"Chen Qiuer is my daughter, and Xiao Wu is the mother of my child. What do you think?" Chen Xuan spoke with a dark face, trying his best to suppress his anger.
"what?"
When everyone heard this, they were petrified on the spot, with huge waves of emotion rising in their hearts. General Xing Luo was also dumbfounded. He stood there in a daze, too shocked to speak for a moment.
The little girl Chen Qiuer who suddenly appeared in the world back then was invincible and glorious, but they never expected that Chen Xuan was actually Chen Qiuer's father, the husband of the stunningly beautiful Xiao Wu?
Everyone was in a daze, unable to calm down. At the same time, they were filled with fear. Fortunately, they did not say too much, otherwise they would have brought disaster upon themselves.
At this moment, they no longer sympathized with their companion who was knocked away. Those words were equivalent to stepping on the head of the evil Chen and making trouble. They were simply seeking death. The result now was that the other party had held back, so it was reasonable that they were really beaten to death.
