"Chu Qinian is dead?"
In a certain luxurious office on the seventh floor of the Seven Nights Hotel, Chu Yuan was lecturing Chu Que when she suddenly received a message from her subordinate. She was very surprised.
Chu Qi Nian was the person in charge of the Chu clan in Qiye. Although he was not a direct descendant of the Chu clan, his status was still quite important. This person was a little greedy, but he had a sense of propriety. He knew what he could take and what he couldn't.
Chu Yuan knew about Chu Qinian's bad habit, but this person had a way of doing things, so she turned a blind eye to it. Greed was not a big problem, as long as there was a limit.
However, how could this person die out of nowhere?
During the video call, Chu Qinian was still fine. In this era, medical technology was advanced, and Chu Qi Nian was a Silver Star Master. If there were any diseases in his body, he would be able to discover the problem.
He died so suddenly. It was too strange!
Chu Yuan asked coldly, "What's the cause of death?"
The subordinate on the screen was sweating profusely. He lowered his head and said, "I've checked. It's a cerebral hemorrhage."
Chu Yuan sneered, "This is it?"
"He might have lost control of his Astral Power. We'll have to wait for the autopsy results."
Chu Yuan was famous for being rude and unreasonable, so the subordinate did not dare to say anything definite.
"Trash."
Chu Yuan was very angry when she saw the incompetent look on the other party's face. She knew that it would be a waste of her saliva to ask any more questions, so she immediately turned off the video call.
She raised her head and asked Chu Que, "When you were with Chu Qinian just now, did you notice anything wrong?"
For a powerful Star Master like Chu Que, his mental power was extremely sensitive. If there were any abnormalities in Chu Qinian's body, she would definitely notice it.
"Chu Qinian was fine just now."
Chu Que did not have a good impression of Chu Qinian. This person's smile was so hypocritical that it made people feel nauseous. Naturally, he did not feel any regret for his death. Her statement was also simple and objective.
"Don't you find it strange that he died just like that?" Chu Yuan asked.
"What does Sister Yuan want to say?" Chu Que asked, puzzled.
Chu Yuan was speechless at Chu Que's sluggishness. Chu Qinian had just come into contact with Gao Zhengyang and then died. Didn't she think that Gao Zhengyang was suspicious?
She could only ask directly, "Could it be Beichen who did this?"
"Beichen?"
Chu Que asked blankly, "Why did he want to kill Chu Qinian?"
"Who knows? Maybe she doesn't like him."
Chu Yuan said, "People like Beichen like to use violence to solve problems."
Chu Que laughed, "Sister Yuan, just how much resentment do you have towards Beichen? There was no enmity between them, so why would he casually kill them? How could there be such logic? Besides, I was right next to him and they didn't have any physical contact. Beichen's Star Teacher rank was lower than Chu Qi Nian's. Even if he wanted to kill him, he couldn't do it from a distance. Do you think he's a Golden General? "
What he said made sense, and Chu Yuan could not refute him. However, based on her most basic intuition, Chu Yuan still felt that Gao Zhengyang was suspicious.
Otherwise, how could Chu Qinian, who was still alive and well, die after seeing Gao Zhengyang? This was too much of a coincidence.
Chu Yuan turned on the hologram and found the person in charge of security. "Go and investigate Beichen. See what he's doing on the seventh floor."
"Sister Yuan, why are you so prejudiced against Beichen …"
Chu Que couldn't understand what Chu Yuan was thinking. She said, "Beichen is very talented. All the aristocratic families are paying close attention to him. Even if you don't want to rope him in, why do you have to be so hostile to him? "
"I'm not hostile to him. I just feel sorry for him."
Chu Yuan said angrily, "You're very generous. You used your own quota to buy things for him. In this way, we've lost a few billion yuan. You don't know how expensive it is if you don't manage the household! "
Chu Yuan was full of resentment when she talked about this. They sold a lot of goods, but they didn't make any money. If they did business like this, the Chu family would starve to death.
Chu Que also knew that this was not a good thing. She didn't mean to help Gao Zhengyang, but she was defeated by Gao Zhengyang's shamelessness. However, she didn't think it was a big problem. After all, Gao Zhengyang still paid for it. Although the family didn't earn much, they still earned something.
Without such a big discount, Gao Zhengyang might not buy from the Chu family.
"Astral Magic Silver, Purple Light Crystal …"
Chu Yuan looked at the materials Gao Zhengyang bought and said sarcastically, "Just by looking at the shopping list, I would think that he wanted to make a Golden Star Armor!"
These materials weren't enough to make a Golden Star Armor, but these complicated and high-end materials couldn't all be used on one set of star armor. The Silver Star Armor couldn't accommodate these materials either.
Chu Que wasn't interested in discussing this. What Gao Zhengyang wanted to do with these things was his own business.
She said, "Sister Yuan, I'll leave first."
"Don't get involved with Beichen in the future. The Hong family doesn't like him. They might make a move on him one day. "
Chu Yuan said, "The news of Beichen coming to the Seven Nights has long spread. He might not be able to leave alive this time."
Chu Que frowned and said, "I've already warned him. It's his business whether he listens or not …"
In fact, Chu Que didn't agree with Gao Zhengyang going to the seventh level. Although it didn't belong to the Hong family, it was owned by the seven families. The Hong family was also very powerful there.
If Gao Zhengyang's identity was really exposed, the situation would be hard to predict. However, she was forced to come over by Chu Yuan, so she couldn't follow Gao Zhengyang.
Just as Chu Yuan was about to speak, she suddenly received a video call from her subordinate. She opened it impatiently. As she listened, her face became paler and paler.
Chu Que was a little curious. He didn't know what news Chu Yuan received. His cousin, who always pretended to be calm, had an ugly expression on her face.
This kind of video call was directly projected on the retina. If the person involved didn't want to share it with others, others definitely wouldn't be able to see or hear anything.
Chu Yuan didn't let Chu Que wait for too long. After she closed the video call, she couldn't wait and said to Chu Yuan, "Just now, Beichen went on a killing spree in the Lucky Taobao shop on the seventh level. About a hundred Hong family's Star Masters were killed. He even smashed the Lucky Taobao shop … "
The Seven Nights Market didn't have the Alliance's optical supercomputer, and the galactic network was prohibited. It could be said that this place was in a closed state from space to data.
In order to prevent people from casually filming the Seven Nights Market, there were jammers everywhere. All kinds of smart equipment would be jammed. Even the Seven Nights Market itself only had surveillance cameras set up in the most important places.
Therefore, there was no video of the battle. There was only the scene of Gao Zhengyang smashing the Lucky Taobao shop.
After Chu Yuan heard the news from her subordinate, she was a little shocked. The Seven Nights Market had been established for a long time, but no one dared to cause trouble here.
It was very difficult for those who didn't have eyes to enter the Seven Nights Market. Even if there were really lunatics who wanted to cause trouble, they would be quickly subdued and killed by the strong security team.
Those who wanted to die would not cause any trouble.
Ever since Chu Yuan took over the Seven Nights Market, this was the first time she encountered such a thing. Although it wasn't the Chu family, it was the Hong family, one of the seven aristocratic families. It was also the seven pillars of the Seven Nights Market.
"How dare he? How dare he? Who gave him the courage … "
Chu Yuan muttered to herself. She couldn't understand. Even if the Hong family had set up an ambush, it was fine that Gao Zhengyang broke out of the encirclement. But he didn't run away. Instead, he stood there and fought.
He killed more than a hundred security Star Masters and smashed the Hong family's shop. Was he crazy?
Chu Yuan didn't like Gao Zhengyang. As one of the seven aristocratic families, she naturally stood on the Hong family's side. The seven aristocratic families wanted to kill a small fry, but he didn't just wait for his death. He even dared to resist!
It was fine that he resisted, but he dared to kill people and smash the shop. Was there any justice in this world?
Chu Que looked at the angry Chu Yuan and said in confusion, "They wanted to kill Bei Chen. What's wrong with him fighting back? They even wanted to take his life. Isn't it reasonable for him to smash the shop … "
The logic was very simple. Chu Que didn't quite understand what Chu Yuan was thinking.
Chu Yuan was stunned for a while before saying, "Then he went too far."
"It has nothing to do with the Chu family. That's a grudge between him and the Hong family. Why are you so angry?"
Chu Que didn't agree. The Hong family and the Chu family weren't good friends, but Chu Yuan liked to stand on the Hong family's side. There was something wrong with her thinking.
"Although the seven aristocratic families are against each other, we are one against outsiders." Chu Yuan didn't think she did anything wrong. She said indignantly, "Bei Chen killed people and still didn't leave. He's too arrogant."
"Bei Chen didn't leave?" Chu Que was very surprised. After doing such a big thing, Bei Chen still didn't leave. What did he want?
Chu Yuan suddenly stood up and said, "No, I have to ask him why he killed my people!"
"Sister Yuan, are you saying that he killed Chu Qinian?" Chu Que asked.
"Who else could it be if not him?"
Chu Yuan said angrily, "I already said that this person is unreasonable. He doesn't need a reason to kill people."
"I'll go with you." Chu Que thought for a while and said, "This is the Chu family's matter. Of course, I have to find out."
Chu Yuan patted Chu Que's shoulder. "Not bad. He's a member of the Chu family."
Chu Que smiled bitterly but didn't say anything. She wasn't just standing up for the Chu family. She was also worried about Chu Yuan's safety. Chu Yuan had probably been in an aristocratic family for too long and was too full of herself.
It would be a waste if she ran over in this state and was killed by Bei Chen.
She didn't really like this cousin of hers, but she didn't want anything to happen to her. She also didn't want Bei Chen to become enemies with the Chu family.
Chu Que felt that he understood Bei Chen quite well. This person was actually quite rational. He wasn't a violent person and could be communicated and reasoned with. However, this person was really fearless and merciless when he attacked.
The Hong family had already broken the iron rule of not fighting in Qiye City when they attacked. If the other aristocratic families followed suit, who would dare to do business here?
The most important thing was that this kind of thing could only be done secretly. It couldn't be known. Now that it was in an uproar, it would be difficult to end it.
It was a pity that Chu Yuan didn't think of this at all. Her mind was still full of reasoning with Bei Chen. In fact, the Hong family didn't follow the rules. If the matter was exposed, it would be a big deal.
The other six aristocratic families should first ask the Hong family to take out some of their interests as an explanation. They shouldn't follow the Hong family to find trouble with Bei Chen. From this point of view, Chu Yuan was actually very short-sighted. Of course, she had never been far-sighted.
In order to prevent any accidents, Chu Que had to follow Chu Yuan.
Chu Yuan and Chu Que, along with a group of Star Masters armed with Star Armors, aggressively rushed to the Fortune Taobao shop on the seventh floor.
When they arrived, the door of the Fortune Taobao shop was smashed, and the windows outside were also broken. Through the broken windows, they could see a shiny Flying Scale Star Armor in the shop smashing things slowly inside.
Yes, that elegant and gorgeous figure was not anxious or manic at all. Instead, it was patrolling in an orderly manner. Sometimes, it would even pick up something to look at. If it didn't look good, it would casually smash it or directly step on it.
Chu Yuan looked inside, and the anger on her face intensified. She was about to step in, but when she reached the door, she saw a deep crisscrossed sword mark. Behind the sword mark was a line of words: Trespassers will be killed!
These words were obviously carved out with a sword, and they looked murderous.
Although Chu Yuan was brave, she couldn't help but hesitate. Chu Que grabbed Chu Yuan. "He wrote it very clearly. It's very dangerous for you to go in."
"Hmph … He dares to touch me?"
Chu Yuan cast a sidelong glance at Chu Que, but in the end, she didn't dare to go forward. She stood outside the door and shouted, "Beichen, come out and talk."
When Gao Zhengyang heard the shout, he strode in front of Chu Yuan, lowered his head, and asked, "What do you want?"
Facing the eight-meter-tall Flying Scale Star Armor, Chu Yuan was a little flustered. However, she was used to being domineering in Tianjing, so she immediately shouted angrily, "What are you doing? This is Qiye. It's not your place to be presumptuous. "
"Why? You want to take charge?" Gao Zhengyang's tone was calm, but there was an indescribable coldness in it. "You want to take responsibility for what the Hong Family did?"
Chu Yuan couldn't help but take a step back. She didn't dare to mention the Hong Family anymore. She changed the topic and said, "I don't care about the grudges between you and the Hong Family. Let me ask you, why did you kill Chu Qinian?"
"Chu Qinian?" Gao Zhengyang looked at Chu Que, meaning to know who that was.
Chu Que hurriedly said, "The person in charge who received us just now suddenly died …"
"Oh, him. I killed him. Why? "
Gao Zhengyang looked at Chu Yuan and said, "What do you have to say?"
Chu Yuan was furious when she heard this. "What right do you have to kill someone from the Chu Family?"
"With the two swords in my hands. How about that?"
Gao Zhengyang sneered and said to Chu Yuan, "Chu Qinian wanted to harm me. I'll let this matter go for Chu Que's sake. You still dare to ask me. "
As Gao Zhengyang spoke, he took a step forward and stood directly in front of Chu Yuan. "Tell me, how do you want to settle the matter of Chu Qinian wanting to kill me?"
The huge Star Armor took a step forward and almost stepped on Chu Yuan. Chu Yuan was so scared that her legs turned to jelly. She held her head high and said, "No one is allowed to touch anyone from the Chu family!"
"When you say such ruthless words, your voice can't tremble. It's not convincing if you say it like this. "
Gao Zhengyang smiled. He stretched out his long fingers and gently flicked them. His fingers, which were like iron rods, drew a sharp wind and stabbed toward Chu Yuan. Although Chu Yuan wanted to activate her star power, she couldn't react in time. She watched helplessly as the finger stabbed toward her. Her heart was empty and she felt that she was going to die this time.
The silver finger brushed past Chu Yuan's forehead and accurately snapped a strand of her hair. Gao Zhengyang asked curiously, "I just moved. What can you do?"
Looking at the strand of hair falling slowly in the air, Chu Yuan wanted to say something. However, after escaping from death, all her pride and courage had turned into endless fear.
If Gao Zhengyang had just moved forward a little more, her brain would have exploded. She couldn't say anything. Her legs turned to jelly and she fell backward.
Fortunately, Chu Que held onto Chu Yuan.
Chu Que said to Gao Zhengyang unhappily, "Is it fun to scare a woman like this?"
Gao Zhengyang smiled. "It's quite fun …"
