Chapter 261 Still Thinking About It
Star Luo City
After learning the reason, the soldiers no longer dared to speak and just kept their mouths shut.
Chen Xuan was not unreasonable. Although he was angry, he did not embarrass these people.
"What about Davis and Zhu Zhuyun? They knew about my situation, but they didn't try to stop the Zhu family and the Xingluo Emperor? Or did they agree?"
He was a little angry. He had saved the two from the Titled Douluo of Spirit Hall when he was in Xilu City. Without asking for anything in return, he came here to disgust them?
"Brother Chen, it is like this. The current Wuhun Empire has launched wars everywhere. The Crown Prince and the Crown Prince were sent by His Majesty to deal with the war. They have not returned to Xingluo City after the battle of Xilu City." General Xingluo explained, stating the difficulties faced by Davis and Zhu Zhuyun.
The anger in Chen Xuan's heart subsided a little. If what he thought was true, then people's hearts were really no longer as they used to be.
"Davis was sent away?" He keenly sensed that there was a conspiracy involved.
There is a potential possibility that the Emperor of Xingluo must know about the friendly relationship between Zhu Zhuyun and Dazhu Qing, and if he sends the two away, the prince will not be able to stop the prince from recruiting a son-in-law.
Chen Xuan shook his head, hoping that he was thinking too much, otherwise it would be too dark and he would want to go on a killing spree.
"I want to see who is seeking death!" His eyes were cold and murderous. He had no intention of killing anyone. He just wanted to quietly take Xiao Wu and Da Zhuqing away. However, things went against his wishes. This was forcing him to take action.
"Brother Chen, I will lead the way for you." General Xingluo said. There were fast horses here to lead the way for Chen Xuan.
Two fine horses carried them into the city, charging straight ahead, galloping, and hurrying along at the fastest speed.
After the two left, the knights finally felt relieved. The shadow of fear gradually dissipated. One person whispered, "It seems that this devil Chen was anxious and let the cat out of the bag. Judging from their reputation, it is clear that he wants to pick even a flower. How greedy..."
As a result, before he could finish his words, a cold light shot out and brushed past his scalp, and with a bang, the pitch-black kunai was nailed to the wooden board behind him.
The knight was frightened and quickly covered his mouth with both hands, not daring to say another word.
……
General Xing Luo rode a fast horse, leading the way, and soon arrived at Zhu Zhuqing's residence at lightning speed.
After bringing Chen Xuan here, the general said that he had important business to attend to and could not stay any longer, so he took his leave in a hurry.
In front of us is Zhu Zhuqing's land, a luxurious manor with more than a dozen houses, several courtyards, and several small ponds. The area is not small, nearly 20 acres.
When Chen Xuan set foot here, there were many people gathered here, including children of nobles, royal family, princes, geniuses, disciples of sects, etc. They were all well-known people, and all of them were powerful and noble.
This manor was so large, but it was packed with nobles, making so much noise and bustle, there were no less than three hundred of them.
Of course, most of these people are bodyguards who are here to protect their young masters.
Chen Xuan saw that each of these powerful and noble people was waiting outside the manor with a heavy betrothal gift, and they were here to recruit a son-in-law!
"Damn it!" He was so angry that his teeth were itching, because they were in this open space and were too close. Even if he didn't pay attention, he could hear these people's conversations.
Among them, there were some young men from wealthy families who gathered together to discuss the beauty of Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing. They used all kinds of dirty words, which was disgusting to the extreme.
Chen Xuan clenched his fists, he really couldn't bear it at all. Under normal circumstances, he would have taken action directly, but this was Zhu Zhuqing's residence, and he didn't want to dirty the place.
He expanded his perception and covered the area directly. As expected, he sensed two very familiar auras in there.
Beside the lotus pond, a beautiful woman was scattering food to feed the fish. She was dressed in a pink dress that was elegant, flowing and transparent, and she looked like an ethereal being, as charming as a fairy who had descended to earth.
She seemed to have sensed something, turned her head and looked at the sky, then looked in the direction outside the manor, and murmured, "Chen Xuan?"
Outside, various geniuses and nobles came with betrothal gifts. They naturally knew about it, but never paid any attention.
In the house, Zhu Zhuqing's parents came and were persuading her to find a good husband and become a partner. After all, she was not young anymore and it was time for her to get married.
"Zhu Qing, it's not that your mother wants to teach you a lesson, but His Majesty has already said that you can choose any man in the Xing Luo Empire. Just wait outside. Isn't that enough?"
"Zhu Qing, you always listened to your mother when you were a child, what's wrong with you now?"
However, no matter how she persuaded him, Zhu Zhuqing remained calm and unmoved. At this time, a man with great energy spoke up and said in a deep voice: "Zhuqing, don't set your sights too high. You need to see the current situation clearly. The young man in the White Tiger Mansion is very suitable for you. Although he is not as talented as the crown prince, he is also an elite. If you marry him, the child you give birth to will definitely be extraordinary."
Under normal circumstances, how could they use a negotiating tone? As parents, they would naturally give orders in a strong manner and tell you to do whatever they tell you to do.
But now it was different, they could not do that because their daughter had climbed to a terrifying height, surpassing their lifelong achievements and had become an unrivaled powerful person.
Zhu Zhuqing's face was calm and her attitude was cold, she remained unmoved.
But the next moment, a hint of color suddenly appeared in her cold and beautiful eyes, and she murmured softly: "You, are here..."
She walked out of the house, exchanged a glance with Xiao Wu, then called the servant and said softly, "Go and open the door."
In the room, the middle-aged man and the beautiful woman were immediately delighted, thinking that Zhu Zhuqing had been persuaded and was finally willing to choose a son-in-law.
The two men stood up suddenly and strode to the gate of the manor to personally greet the distinguished guests.
Outside the manor, there is a huge open space, large enough for thousands of people to stand, so it does not seem crowded.
Chen Xuan withdrew his gaze because the people around him were staring at him with unfriendly expressions and full of hostility.
He did not restrain his murderous intent very well, and even if it was only a little bit, there were no weak people present and they would have noticed it at the first moment.
Some people had gloomy faces, because they came here to find a son-in-law. The other party was trying to break the rules.
"Who is this person from? Why does he look so unfamiliar?" A group of people looked at him unfriendlyly. Seeing that Chen Xuan was dressed simply and did not look like a powerful person, they began to scrutinize him.
They communicated with each other and received the same answer. They had never seen this person in the aristocratic circle before. Was he probably not a noble?
Guessing that Chen Xuan might be a civilian spirit master, everyone present turned cold and hostile. Some of them even had cold eyes and wanted to take action.
Obviously, none of them knew Chen Xuan. After all, all the people here were wealthy and powerful, most of them were the geniuses of Xing Luo, living in a comfortable zone, let alone leading troops to fight. Some of them had never even left the Xing Luo Empire.
Perhaps they had heard of Chen Xuan's name, but they had definitely never seen him in person, and they would never have thought that the devil Chen, who was far away in the sky, would appear in Xingluo City.
Thinking that Chen Xuan was just a civilian and tried to snatch the woman from them, everyone present looked unhappy and some even showed murderous intent.
"So, it's another dog who wants to desecrate Xiao Wu and Zhu Qing. He doesn't even take a piss to look at his own weight. Is he worthy?"
"Some people, knowing that they are beyond their capabilities, still want to go into troubled waters, not knowing that they will bring disaster upon themselves."
"You are what you are, so stay in the circle that suits you. If you try to please Longmen, you will end up getting smashed to pieces!"
On the field, a group of rich young men did not hold back their voices and made loud sarcasm and ridicule, just to let Chen Xuan hear it.
Obviously, they did not take Chen Xuan seriously, a civilian soul master in his early twenties. Even if he was so young and talented, and could cultivate to the level of Soul Emperor, they would have bodyguards at the Soul Douluo level.
Chen Xuan's face was grim. Although he didn't want to cause trouble and stain the place with blood, it didn't mean that he was afraid of the nobles and wealthy young men present.
"Damn it, you, a loser, dare to show such a look, you are simply looking for death!" A rich young man was furious and showed murderous intent. He was extremely dissatisfied with Chen Xuan's behavior.
He summoned his martial soul, bent his bow and drew his arrow, without any hesitation, and activated his fifth soul skill.
With a hissing sound, five arrows shot out at the same time, blasting into the sky, like five terrifying beams of light, flying towards Chen Xuan's eyebrows, heart and other vital parts, without showing any mercy.
"court death!"
Chen Xuan's eyes were cold, the power of the Nine-Magne Samsara Eye blossomed, and the ability of his space martial soul unfolded. He stretched out his insulated hand, grabbed all five arrow feathers, and threw them back.
puff!
Blood splattered all over the ground. The rich young man who took action was pierced by five even brighter arrows. His head and heart exploded and he died on the spot!
