"Xiao Chen, I didn't think I'd be able to see you so soon, and I definitely didn't expect you to come to Dongfang City! I really have to thank you this time. "Oriental Snow smiled sweetly.
"Haha, Miss Dongfang is too courteous. What happened last time was just a small matter." Xiao Chen smiled indifferently, not taking it to heart. From the moment Xiao Chen entered the hall and didn't mention anything about saving Oriental Snow, it could be seen that Xiao Chen didn't take it to heart. It was purely because he saw injustice on the road.
"Xiao Chen, you're treating me like an outsider. You're my savior, and I have to repay you. Otherwise, if I'm captured by Fang Yunchong, the Fang family will definitely use it to threaten my father. At that time, the city lord's position will be hard to keep." Oriental Snow smiled happily. Being able to see Xiao Chen made her extremely happy.
"Xue 'er is rarely this happy, and she doesn't have any friends. Looks like it's because of Xiao Chen. Could it be that Xue' er has fallen in love with Xiao Chen? But that's also good. Hearing Sect Master Han praise Xiao Chen, then Xiao Chen is definitely not bad. Sect Master Han never praises others. "Dongfang Batian secretly thought. Seeing Oriental Snow so happy, he was secretly gratified.
"Little Xue, we're here because of the matter with Fang Yunchong." Hanyun smiled faintly and then told her what had happened.
Knowing that Fang Yunchong was very likely a flower thief, Oriental Snow immediately snorted, "Hmph! I knew Fang Yunchong wasn't a good person, but I didn't expect him to do such a thing. "
At this point, Dongfang Xue looked at Dongfang Batian and hurriedly said, "Father, as the City Lord, you can't just sit by and do nothing. Tell everyone in Dongfang City about Fang Yunchong as soon as possible so that the Fang Family's reputation will be ruined."
"Xiao Xue, don't be anxious. We were just talking about how to deal with the Fang Family when you came in. Let's listen to Brother Xiao Chen's opinion." Dongfang Batian laughed bitterly.
At this time, Xiao Chen said with a solemn expression, "City Lord, write a few letters to the other families, threatening them not to intervene, then invite Fang Family Head and Fang Yunchong here."
Dongfang Batian nodded his head, before continuing, "For the threat to be effective, an Elder must be sent personally. Old Man only needs to invite that old bastard Fang Qingde and that stinking brat Fang Yunchong."
"If that's the case, then that's the best. As long as Fang Qingde and Fang Yunchong come, I have a way to confirm whether Fang Yunchong is a flower thief or not." Xiao Chen smiled. In this way, if it was only the Fang family, then there was nothing to be afraid of.
"Xue 'er, go inform the three elders and convey father's intentions to them. Tell them to leave immediately. When they leave, send a commander to the Fang Family to invite Patriarch Fang and Young Master Fang." Dongfang Batian said to Dongfang Xue.
Oriental Snow nodded her head, "Yes, Father. Your daughter will go now." Before she left, she did not forget to look at Xiao Chen.
"Xiao Chen, why do I feel that Miss Dongfang is always looking at you? From the moment she came in, her eyes were basically looking at you. She can't have fallen for you, right? "Ancient White Tiger Voice Transmission laughed.
"Little White Tiger, don't talk nonsense!" Xiao Chen was shocked when he heard this, and hurriedly scolded in a low voice.
Ancient White Tiger laughed evilly, "Hehe, don't be nervous. I'm just saying."
Half an hour later, a guard came in and reported respectfully, "Reporting to City Lord, Fang Family Head and Young Lord Fang have arrived. They are outside the hall."
Dongfang Batian sneered, "Very good. Come, let's go out."
Outside the main hall, Fang Qingde and Fang Yunchong were already waiting. Fang Qingde was about fifty years old, wearing a black brocade robe, showing his noble aura inside and out. He wore a golden crown on his head and had a square face. His appearance was average, but his eyes exuded a chilling and vicious light that made one's heart turn cold.
Seeing Dongfang Batian and Hanyun appear, Fang Qingde's eyes flashed with surprise. He thought to himself, "Why is the Hoshigarashi Sōshi's Patriarch Hanyun also here?"
"En? Xiao Chen? Why is it him? Why is he here? Does he know the City Lord? "When Fang Yunchong saw Xiao Chen's figure, he could not help but be shocked and somewhat in disbelief.
After confirming that it was Xiao Chen, Fang Yunchong hurriedly said, "Father, it's that Xiao Chen. He was the one who injured me last time. This kid is very powerful, especially his sword technique. I will never forget that sword ray!"
"What? You were defeated by this kid? "Fang Qingde could not help but be shocked. He could not help but take a few more glances at Xiao Chen.
The three of them appearing at the same time made Fang Qingde feel a little strange. He whispered, "Chong-er, be careful later. I feel that things are not so simple."
"City Lord Dongfang, I hope that you can forgive me. Chong-er was muddle-headed and did such a disgraceful thing." Fang Qingde took the initiative to cup his fists and smile, looking very polite.
Dongfang Batian's face was a little angry as he said, "Patriarch Fang must be joking."
"You are Xiao Chen? You injured Chong-er. Old Man will settle this with you later! "Fang Qingde's gaze swept towards Xiao Chen as he coldly shouted, his vicious eyes flashing with murderous intent.
Hearing this, Xiao Chen sneered, "Since you want to settle the score, then let's settle it now."
Xiao Chen took a few steps forward and took out an emerald green jade pendant. He sneered, "Fang Yunchong, is this your jade pendant? When you fought with me, it fell in Hundred Flowers Town. "
Seeing the jade pendant in Xiao Chen's hand, Fang Yunchong hurriedly looked at his belt and found that the jade pendant was gone. He actually did not notice it these days.
"It is indeed my jade pendant. Xiao Chen, you can't be so kind as to come and give me this jade pendant, right?" Fang Yunchong asked coldly, his eyes filled with murderous intent.
"If I'm not wrong, this jade pendant should be very important to you. Am I right?" Xiao Chen sneered.
Fang Yunchong was just about to speak when Fang Qingde hurriedly stopped him. He took a deep look at Xiao Chen before Fang Qingde sneered, "It's just an ordinary jade pendant. The Fang Clan has plenty of them. If you like it, I'll give it to you."
"Chong-er, be careful with your words. Xiao Chen was in Hundred Flowers Town before, but now he came to Dongfang City with Hanyun. This matter is definitely not simple. Maybe he already suspects you." Fang Qingde hurriedly transmitted to Fang Yunchong. Fang Yunchong's expression changed slightly.
"How is this possible? Xiao Chen can't possibly suspect me. Could it be because of the jade pendant? "Fang Yunchong doubted in his heart.
"This old fellow is so shrewd! Xiao Chen, it seems that this old fellow also knows about this matter. "Ancient White Tiger Voice Transmission said.
Hearing Fang Qingde's words, Dongfang Batian and Hanyun couldn't help but frown. Fang Qingde's words reduced the suspicion of Fang Yunchong.
"This old fellow is really astute. It seems that he has already sensed something! As expected of the Fang Clan's Patriarch, he is really not simple. However, his actions just now are even more suspicious. He did this just to cover up the truth, so now we can be even more certain that the flower thief is Fang Yunchong! "Xiao Chen thought. Although the matter had become a little complicated, it was not difficult for Xiao Chen.
Xiao Chen threw the jade pendant to Fang Yunchong and sneered: "This jade pendant is too precious for me to accept. However, since Patriarch Fang has already given it to me, and I don't like it, then I will just have to destroy this jade pendant."
After saying that, Xiao Chen raised his hand and wanted to destroy the jade pendant. Fang Yunchong's face changed and he hurriedly shouted: "Xiao Chen, stop!"
"Good Xiao Chen! As expected, you have suspected Chong 'er. Old Man, today I will eliminate you! " Fang Qingde was furious in his heart. His face became slightly gloomy, and his eyes flashed with an intense killing intent.
"Why? It's just a jade pendant. Young Master Fang, you don't have to be so nervous right? Your Fang Clan has plenty of them. " Xiao Chen sneered. Then, ignoring Fang Yunchong's obstruction, he swung his hand and threw the jade pendant to the ground. With a 'kacha' sound, it broke into pieces.
"Xiao Chen! You bastard! "Fang Yunchong was furious, and his killing intent soared to the sky.
"Young Master Fang is so angry. Could it be that this jade pendant is very important to you? Just now, your father said that the Fang Clan has plenty of jade pendants. Could it be that the Fang Clan, with its deep heritage, is so stingy? If you want to blame someone, blame your father. "Xiao Chen sneered, ignoring Fang Yunchong's anger.
Dongfang Batian and Hanyun who were at the side saw Xiao Chen's wonderful performance and almost couldn't help but laugh. They secretly admired Xiao Chen's intelligence.
"This is the jade pendant my mother left me!" Fang Yunchong roared furiously, his face was hideous and terrifying.
"Chong 'er!" Fang Qingde immediately scolded, and his face became more and more gloomy.
"Oh? So it's the jade pendant your mother left you. This means that there is only one piece left. Madam Fang, this jade pendant shouldn't be on your son. " Xiao Chen was overjoyed to hear this. Since it was a jade pendant left behind by Mrs. Fang, there was only one piece of it. That meant that he was now certain that Fang Yunchong was the flower thief.
Xiao Chen glanced coldly at Fang Yunchong and sneered, "Fang Yunchong, I can confirm that you are the flower thief! Do you remember that night in Baihua Town? After you were stabbed by me, you fled to Hoshigarashi Sōshi with the purpose of framing the Hoshigarashi Sōshi. When I chased you to the woods, you disappeared. The next day, on our way to Hoshigarashi Sōshi, I found blood stains on a tree in the woods, and the blood stains came from the top of the tree. At that time, I thought that it was strange that you disappeared. When you brought the guards of the Fang Clan to seek revenge, you used the Wood Elemental Energy to bind me. I guessed that you used the Wood Elemental Energy to hide in the tree and created the illusion that you disappeared. "
Fang Yunchong was shocked. He frowned and said, "Xiao Chen, don't slander me. This doesn't prove anything."
Xiao Chen sneered, "When you brought the guards of the Fang Clan to seek revenge, do you still remember Zhang Xiaorou of the Zhang Clan in Baihua Town? She had seen this jade pendant before, and she said that this jade pendant was worn by the flower thief. Coincidentally, you were wearing this jade pendant that day. Since Patriarch Fang covered up the truth for you, I became even more suspicious of you. When you said that this jade pendant was left behind by your mother, that already proves that you are the flower thief! "
Dongfang Batian shouted coldly, "Fang Yunchong, you are really the flower thief! Men, take him down. My Dongfang City will not allow anyone worse than a beast to get away with it! "
