After three rounds of wine, the three Ninth Heavenly Layer Earth Source experts of the city lord's estate were already filled with admiration for Jiang Chen. They were truly grateful to him. Zhang Shun and the others all patted their chests and promised that if Jiang Chen needed any help in the future, they would not even bat an eyelid at all. Even if they had to climb a mountain of blades or dive into a sea of flames, they would do it without hesitation.
This was especially true for Zhang Shun. Jiang Chen had helped him clear the Fire Poison in his body. This was the same as saving Zhang Shun's life. Just like what Jiang Chen had said, if the Fire Poison in Zhang Shun's body wasn't cleared as soon as possible, he would only have three more years to live.
"There's no need to be so polite. Jiang Chen only lifted a finger to help."
Said Jiang Chen. He had a very good impression of the people of the city lord's estate.
In reality, the humans of the Crimson East Region gave Jiang Chen a very good impression. It was because the overall environment was good. He had experienced many things, but this was the first time he had seen such a united place. There were basically no conflicts between humans, only fights with the Winged race.
"Teacher, why don't you take a look at my father and see if he has any problems that he needs to solve?"
Xie Ting took the initiative to ask. He had already seen Xie Yunpeng hesitate three times. He understood his father far too well. Xie Yunpeng had personally seen Jiang Chen guide his three subordinates, so it would be impossible for him not to be tempted. However, he was a Heavenly Source expert after all, and the city lord, so he was a little embarrassed to ask for help.
"Problems? There's a big problem. Your father's about to be squeezed dry by the vixen. "
Da Huang Dog had long since been unable to hold it in any longer. When he heard Xie Ting's question, his straightforward nature immediately blurted out. Squeezed dry by the vixen? To the city lord of the city lord's estate, this was undoubtedly extremely rude.
However, Da Huang Dog did not care about this. This dog did not seem to have any manners.
"Teacher Da Huang, what do you mean by that?"
Xie Ting's expression changed as he looked at Da Huang. Xie Yunpeng's expression also darkened instantly. It was obvious that he was very unhappy with Da Huang Dog's words. If it wasn't for the sake of Jiang Chen, Xie Yunpeng would have flown into a rage on the spot.
"Lord City Master, there is no need to be angry. What this brother of mine said is the truth."
Jiang Chen said indifferently. Since Da Huang Dog had spoken, then this layer of window paper had been pierced through. Regarding Bai Xiaoling's matter, it was time to get to the bottom of it.
"Brother Jiang Chen, what do you mean by that?"
Xie Yunpeng frowned.
"City Lord, your vitality is almost depleted. If this continues, the consequences will be unimaginable. If your cultivation base doesn't improve, it will deteriorate completely. Once your vitality is depleted, it will be your doomsday."
Jiang Chen said that he was not exaggerating at all.
"Father, is what teacher said true?"
Xie Ting looked at Xie Yunpeng anxiously.
At this moment, Xie Yunpeng was like a deflated balloon. His previously high-spirited aura had withered.
"Brother Jiang Chen is right. Recently, I have indeed felt that my vitality is insufficient. When I cultivate, I will feel dizzy from time to time. Not only did my cultivation base not improve, but it also felt like I was floating. To be honest, when I fought with Zhao Lingxiao on Mount Chiling, I felt that my strength was not weak. I tried to take some elixirs and elixirs to strengthen my vitality, but it didn't work at all."
Xie Yunpeng said.
"Teacher, please help my father."
Xie Ting suddenly stood up from his seat and bowed deeply to Jiang Chen. Ever since he entered the Martial Pavilion, he had less contact with Xie Yunpeng and did not care enough about his father. Moreover, with Bai Xiaoling by his father's side, Xie Ting originally had a slight dislike for Bai Xiaoling. Hence, he rarely had the chance to meet Xie Yunpeng.
"Of course I will help, but I hope City Lord can answer my next question sincerely."
Jiang Chen looked at Xie Yunpeng.
"Brother Jiang Chen, please ask. How can I not be honest?"
Xie Yunpeng said. He had now realized the seriousness of his problem. In fact, even if Jiang Chen did not say anything today, he had been looking for a way to at least find out the reason for this situation.
It should be known that the Cultivation Method and Battle Skill that he cultivated were all existences of extreme Yang. Vigorous Qi and blood had always been his most important characteristic. Xie Yunpeng was completely bewildered by this sudden situation of having his Qi and blood depletion. He could not find the slightest reason for this at all.
"I want to know Bai Xiaoling's true identity."
Jiang Chen went straight to the point.
"Xiaoling."
"Aunt Ling."
Xie Yunpeng and his father's expressions froze. Obviously, they did not expect that this matter would involve a woman.
"Bai Xiaoling is a girl that I saved when I was traveling a year ago. In order to repay me for saving her life, she is willing to follow me. That's all."
Xie Yunpeng said.
"Little Chenzi, it seems that this vixen has a premeditated plan."
Da Huang Dog laughed. This matter was very obvious. Bai Xiaoling was a demon fox, but she had never told Xie Yunpeng about it. If she really wanted to repay Xie Yunpeng for saving her life, there was no need to hide it.
Moreover, Xie Yunpeng's deficiency of vitality was obviously related to Bai Xiaoling.
"What vixen?"
Xie Yunpeng frowned.
"It seems that City Lord still does not know that your wife, Bai Xiaoling, is a demon fox. Although she used a secret technique to conceal her demonic aura, she can't hide it from my eyes. If my guess is right, Bai Xiaoling should have let you save her on purpose a year ago. This itself is a conspiracy. Bai Xiaoling approached you in order to destroy you. Therefore, she sucked your vitality dry. City Lord, you are the pillar of the human race. Once you fall, there will naturally be someone who will feel proud."
Jiang Chen said.
"What?"
Xie Yunpeng abruptly stood up from his seat. His entire face began to distort. He couldn't believe this matter at all. If these words didn't come from Jiang Chen's mouth, he would have already made his move.
"Brother Jiang Chen, don't speak nonsense. I don't believe that Xiaoling would harm me. For the past year, she has been obedient to me and managed the affairs of the City Lord Residence. Even if she didn't make any contributions, she still put in a lot of effort. How could she be a demon fox?"
Xie Yunpeng was completely unwilling to believe this fact. From the depths of his heart, he was unwilling to accept it. Because for the past year, he had poured too much effort into Bai Xiaoling. He trusted Bai Xiaoling too much. If Bai Xiaoling was really as Jiang Chen said, a demon fox that came to harm him, Xie Yunpeng's heart would probably be hurt to death.
"Why? City Lord, are you doubting me? "
