"Eldest Miss has been following me all the way from the City Lord's Mansion. Jiang Chen can still sense it."
Jiang Chen said with a smile. He could understand why Yan Qingcheng followed him secretly. After all, from Yan Qingcheng's point of view, she still had to consider the safety of the City Lord's Mansion. However, Jiang Chen was a little disgusted by this hidden sense of distrust.
Hearing this, Yan Qingcheng's heart couldn't help but tremble. She couldn't help but feel a little uncomfortable because Jiang Chen had already called her Miss Qingcheng before. Now, he called her Eldest Miss, which made him feel a little distant.
"Big Brother Jiang, Yuan Chengjun found me last night and told me that you went out to meet with Huang Xiong outside the City Lord's Mansion. He said that you are a spy sent by the Huang Family. Coincidentally, you left the City Lord's Mansion in a hurry this morning. Qingcheng was suspicious, so I followed you all the way here. I didn't expect that it would be like this. Qingcheng is really ashamed, I'm sorry."
Yan Qingcheng bowed to Jiang Chen and said frankly. Her expression was dignified and everyone could feel her sincerity.
Seeing this, Jiang Chen also nodded secretly. Yan Qingcheng was not pretentious at all, which made him not feel disgusted at all. If Yan Qingcheng didn't tell the truth and made up some other lies to fool him, Jiang Chen's good impression of her would disappear instantly and he would leave the City Lord's Mansion.
However, Yan Qingcheng obviously didn't try to fool him. She told him everything in detail, which made Jiang Chen's anger disappear. Moreover, Jiang Chen learned about Yuan Chengjun from Yan Qingcheng.
Last night, Huang Xiong could accurately wait for him outside the city lord's mansion, and Yuan Chengjun happened to see their meeting. Then, he told Yan Qingcheng everything, causing her to misunderstand him. How could there be such a coincidence in the world? Jiang Chen felt that everything was planned by Yuan Chengjun in the dark.
As for Yan Qingcheng, Jiang Chen wasn't angry at her at all. She didn't go to him immediately after knowing that he had met with Huang Xiong, which meant that she still trusted him. As for her doubts, if he was in her shoes, he would also have doubts. No wonder Yan Qingcheng didn't. Now that her doubts were gone, it naturally wouldn't affect the relationship between Jiang Chen and Yan Qingcheng, or even the City Lord's Mansion.
"Yuan Chengjun is narrow-minded and not a kind person. Miss Qingcheng, you have to be careful."
Jiang Chen reminded him and did not tell him about Yuan Chengjun's visit last night.
"Big Brother Yuan is indeed a little stingy, but I grew up with him. He's not a bad person. Plus, my father and Uncle Yuan are sworn brothers. Big Brother Yuan would never do anything that would harm the city lord's Mansion."
Yan Qingcheng said.
"That's for the best."
Jiang Chen smiled and didn't say anything. There were some things that didn't need to be explained.
"Today, Big Brother Jiang's means have really stunned Qingcheng. I always thought that Big Brother Jiang was only good at alchemy. I never thought that his combat strength would be so terrifying. A late Human Immortal could actually kill a late Earth Immortal expert. I'm afraid that even those super geniuses in Ethereal Immortal Domain wouldn't be able to do such a thing, let alone in One-Line-Sky. If I didn't see it with my own eyes, I wouldn't believe it even if you beat me to death.
Yan Qingcheng said sincerely. Geniuses were very proud, and Yan Qingcheng was no exception. It wasn't easy for her to say words of admiration to Jiang Chen, but now, her admiration came from the bottom of her heart. "Jiang Chen, you're a genius.
"Brother Jiang is a true genius, but Brother Jiang has killed Huang Xiong today. The Huang Family will definitely not let this matter go. I wonder what we should do next?"
Han Changling said worriedly.
"Everyone in the Huang Family is dead today. In my opinion, we should just burn their bodies. No one will see it anyway."
Second Brother Han said.
"No need. It's totally unnecessary. Huang Xiong has brought so many experts to Han Village. The Huang Family will definitely know about it. This matter can't be concealed anymore. The people of Han Village can no longer stay here."
Jiang Chen said and looked at Yan Qingcheng. "Miss Qingcheng, it shouldn't be a difficult thing for you to settle down the people of Han Village, right?"
"Don't worry, Brother Jiang. I can guarantee the safety of the Han Village. All the villagers can go to Yan City immediately."
Yan Qingcheng said. At this time, the only thing that could protect the Han Village was the Castellan's mansion.
After hearing Yan Qingcheng's words, the villagers of Han Village heaved a sigh of relief. With the protection of the Castellan's mansion, they didn't need to worry about their safety anymore. The Han Village had also moved to Yan City from a remote area. From now on, they had the support of the Castellan's mansion.
This was all because of Jiang Chen. If it wasn't for Jiang Chen, the Han Village wouldn't have such a great opportunity. The high and mighty Castellan wouldn't give special treatment to a small Han Village.
"En, I'm relieved after hearing Sister Qingcheng's words."
Jiang Chen smiled. He was the one who annihilated the Huang Family and the main target of the Huang Family. Han Village was just an accessory. So as long as the Han Village entered Yan City, it would be safe under the protection of the Castellan's mansion. Given the Huang Family's identity, they wouldn't make things difficult for a small village because it would be beneath their dignity.
Without wasting too much time, the villagers of Han Village packed up and followed Jiang Chen and Yan Qingcheng to Yan City. Although there were more than a hundred people in the Han Village, with the help of the two experts, Jiang Chen and Yan Qingcheng, their speed was extremely fast. It only took them half a day to arrive at Yan City from the Han Village.
Hundreds of people entering the Castellan's mansion was a big target. It was hard for them not to be noticed. Plus, the news of what happened in Han Village spread like wildfire. The news of Jiang Chen killing Huang Xiong had alarmed the Castellan, Yan Dongliu.
In a room, Yan Dongliu, Yan Qingcheng, and Yuan Hong were gathered together with Yuan Chengjun.
"Qingcheng, you said that Jiang Chen killed Huang Xiong with his late Human Immortal cultivation base?"
Yan Dongliu couldn't hide his astonishment. Despite knowing what happened in Han Village, he still couldn't believe it. Just like the others, he only thought that Jiang Chen was a powerful alchemist. Ordinary alchemists would be weaker in terms of combat strength because of their focus on alchemy. However, Jiang Chen had become an anomaly. Not only was his alchemy skill superb, his combat strength was also earth-shattering.
"Impossible. I absolutely don't believe that he can kill Huang Liu. After all, Huang Liu is a peak late Earth Immortal expert. He's very difficult to deal with. Even if I personally take action, it won't be an easy task to kill him."
Yuan Chengjun spoke aloud. He seemed somewhat agitated. He had looked down on Jiang Chen from the beginning. As a late Earth Immortal expert, he had a unique advantage in front of Human Immortals. Now, he suddenly felt that his advantage was gone. How could he accept it? "Jiang Chen, you're right.
"That's right, dad. I was hiding in the dark and saw everything clearly. All the people of Huang Family who went to Han Village were killed by Jiang Chen."
Yan Qingcheng said with certainty.
"I never thought that there would be such a genius in the Heavens and Earth. I'm afraid that such a genius is rare even in the entire Ethereal Immortal Domain. This man's future is limitless. It seems like the Castellan's Mansion has to make good use of him."
Yan Dongliu nodded and said. From his words, it could be seen that he attached great importance to Jiang Chen. It was impossible for him to ignore such a terrifying genius. If he didn't, he would be a fool.
"Humph! He's just a puny Human Immortal. What can he achieve? "
Yuan Chengjun harrumphed coldly.
"Big Brother Yuan, why do you always go against Jiang Chen? Last night, you said that Jiang Chen is a spy and a member of Huang Family. Today, Jiang Chen has killed Huang Xiong, which showed his loyalty to the Prefecture. I hope Big Brother Yuan will stop going against Jiang Chen in the future. Both of you are from the Prefecture and should get along well with each other."
Yan Qingcheng looked at Yuan Chengjun with a frown. She was very unhappy that Yuan Chengjun was going against Jiang Chen.
"En, Qingcheng is right. Chengjun, you have to get along well with Jiang Chen in the future. I can tell that this man is not ordinary. You should be able to learn a lot from him."
Yan Dongliu said.
Undoubtedly, the words of Yan Dongliu and his daughter had deeply hurt Yuan Chengjun's self-esteem. He hated Jiang Chen to the core. Because of Jiang Chen, Yan Qingcheng's attitude towards him had changed completely. He could clearly feel the difference.
"Jiang Chen, damn it! I'll get rid of you sooner or later."
Yuan Chengjun gritted his teeth in anger.
"Chengjun, focus on your cultivation."
Yuan Hong said to his son in a flat tone.
"Yes, Uncle Yan, Dad."
Yuan Chengjun replied.
The next day, in the Huang Family.
In the spacious meeting hall of Huang Family, a dozen corpses were laid out. The one in the center was Huang Xiong, the famous Sixth Master of Yan City. At this moment, he was lying there quietly. His throat was crushed in an extremely cruel way. It could be said that he died miserably. Until now, Huang Xiong's eyes were still open.
A lot of people had gathered in the meeting hall, but all of them kept quiet out of fear. They didn't even dare to breathe loudly. In front of Huang Xiong's corpse stood five experts, two Heaven Immortals and three half-step Heaven Immortals. They were the true experts of Huang Family.
The Patriarch of Huang Family, Huang Ying, looked enraged. His chest was heaving up and down as if there was a hidden volcano in his body that would erupt at any time. The same was true for the other four. They were Huang Xiong's blood brothers.
"Who did this?"
Said Huang Ying Leng Leng in a tone so cold that it could freeze an elephant to death.
"The corpses of Sixth Master and the others were found in Han Village. All the people in Han Village have left. I heard that they have all entered the Prefecture. According to the Prefecture, Sixth Master and the others were killed by that alchemist named Jiang Chen."
