Misty Rain Pavilion, Yan City:
Was there a need for a reason to kill?
Of course, there was. No matter how lowly an ant was, it was still a life. Even respect was needed, not to mention humans.
Although Xiao Chen was decisive in killing, he never killed the innocent. Most of the time, Xiao Chen could punish people lightly and not kill them.
However, there were some people that he absolutely had to kill.
Monarch Yu Wang Ling was such a person. Such a person was like a rabid dog. Although Monarch Yu was trash, he had some authority. He did not fear open attacks or hidden attacks. Monarch Yu feared that Monarch Yu would not deal with Xiao Chen but the people around him when he went crazy.
One did not fear hypocrites; one feared true vile people.
A true vile person would resort to all means, disregarding morality and rules. One could not guess when he would go crazy.
Hence, since Xiao Chen remembered it, there was no need to leave Monarch Yu alive.
If this rabid dog really injured or humiliated the people around him one day, Xiao Chen would not be able to bear the price.
Xiao Chen executed the second move of the Fiendish Saber inheritance. A drop of rain fell the instant Monarch Yu erupted, ending his life.
The manservant, Zhang Ping, was already frightened silly in the private room. He was stunned into silence, unable to say anything.
Senior Feng showed a sullen expression as he looked at Xiao Chen with some fear. The other party's terrifying strength had already cast a shadow in his heart.
Senior Feng wanted to leave but did not dare to, as Xiao Chen had not said anything yet.
The Divine Sword Gate disciples accompanying Monarch Yu were stunned, unable to react. "Whoosh! Whoosh!
Whoosh! "
At the crucial moment, two figures appeared in the private room, radiating the aura of a 3-Vein Sovereign Emperor. These were the experts overseeing the Misty Rain Pavilion.
Normally, many ignorant people would cause trouble in the Misty Rain Pavilion. No matter how powerful they were, they would suffer when they ran into these two.
These two rarely showed themselves. However, in secret, they were known as the Misty Rain Twin Demons.
Senior Feng recognized the two and immediately released his bated breath. He said, "Seniors, my clan's young master died a miserable death in the Misty Rain Pavilion. No matter what, please give us an explanation."
As Senior Feng spoke, his gaze fell on Xiao Chen. Clearly, he wanted the Misty Rain Twin Demons to take down Xiao Chen.
However, the Misty Rain Twin Fiends ignored Elder Feng. They looked at Xiao Chen and said something.
"Monarch Yu Wang Ling caused trouble in the Misty Rain Pavilion, wanting to kill the Misty Rain Pavilion's honored guests. In the end, he overestimated himself and died a miserable death at the hands of a Sovereign Emperor."
"Duke Yun failed to teach his son properly, causing our Misty Rain Pavilion to suffer heavy losses. The Misty Rain Pavilion will definitely pursue this matter to the end and report it to the royal family's Sect Elders!"
His voice was not loud, but it resounded throughout the Misty Rain Pavilion. Everyone heard him clearly, not missing a single word.
Old Feng was dumbfounded at that moment. He had not expected such an ending at all. This person had killed a member of the royal family. Shouldn't the Misty Rain Pavilion capture him and then apologize to Prince Cloud?
Why was the situation reversed …
"Do you still have the law?! The one he killed is Monarch Yu, a true inheritor of our Divine Sword Pavilion. He does not even care about our Divine Sword Pavilion. "
"Misty Rain Pavilion, I think you don't want to continue operating in the imperial capital."
The disciples of the Divine Sword Pavilion woke up from their stupor. They were all indignant.
"Scram."
"Bang!"
The Misty Rain Fiend Duo did not make a move, but these Divine Sword Pavilion disciples who shouted were all knocked into the air. Then, the Misty Rain Pavilion's guards each carried one of them out.
The Misty Rain Fiend Duo looked around, and their gazes landed on Old Feng. Old Feng trembled slightly as he said, "I understand. I'll take some of Young Master's belongings and leave."
However, when Old Feng looked around the private room, he saw that Monarch Yu's corpse had already disappeared. There was nothing left to take.
Old Feng took a jade pendant and quickly left without even turning his head back.
"Honored guests, there is no need to panic. Today, a small situation occurred in my Misty Rain Pavilion, startling everyone. The matter has already been resolved, and I have apologized to everyone. Today, the Misty Rain Pavilion will not be accepting alcohol. Please, drink to your heart's content. For the next three days, there will be no charge. The Misty Rain Pavilion will entertain everyone for free. At that time, the twelfth headliner will appear as well.
Just at this moment, someone spoke softly as she leaned against the railing at the highest point of the Misty Rain Pavilion. Her melodious voice sounded like the chirping of birds in the forest, very pleasing to the ears. What was even more pleasing to the ears was the sincerity of her apology. No alcohol, no charge for three days, and the twelfth headliner performing at the same time.
The moment this person said that, cheers rang out. Then, the sounds of stringed instruments, pipa, and harp rang out at the same time. The twelve headliners appeared on the stage one after another.
The atmosphere in the Misty Rain Pavilion suddenly changed, reaching a climax in an instant.
In the blink of an eye, the guests were attracted by the headliners who appeared one after another. Once again, they became immersed in the wondrous music.
The earlier interlude ended up bringing out this performance, making the guests even more excited.
Furthermore, there was free alcohol. With everyone drinking to their heart's content, the Misty Rain Pavilion was destined to be a carnival.
Only a few people knew that the pleasure quarters in the imperial capital had not seen blood for hundreds of years already.
There had to be something fishy about the Misty Rain Pavilion protecting this person in secret.
However, no matter what, Monarch Yu was a Royal Clan disciple. If he died in the Misty Rain Pavilion for no reason, the Misty Rain Pavilion would not be able to hide it even if they wanted to. In less than a day, this news would spread throughout the entire imperial capital.
At that time, it would be another good show.
The guests all left in secret, quickly reporting this news to the factions behind them.
Inside the private room, Zhang Ping wiped the floor in fear. When he saw the bloodstains, he trembled in fear.
A heaven-defying Sovereign Personage died for no reason. How horrifying was that white-clad person?
Fortunately, that white-clad person did not seem to mind Zhang Ping's earlier underestimation.
"This Young Master, please come in. Our Pavilion Master wishes to meet you."
The Misty Rain Pavilion's Twin Demons, two aloof 3-Vein Sovereign Emperors, respectfully greeted Xiao Chen.
Such an attitude shocked the manservant, Zhang Ping. My goodness! To think that these two rarely seen major characters of the Misty Rain Pavilion are so respectful to this white-clad person.
Xiao Chen said calmly, "Let her come and meet me. Right here."
What kind of joke was this? Zhang Ping was a Rank 6 envoy inspector. In some sense, he was the Pavilion Master's direct superior.
Even if Xiao Chen did not like to use his status to suppress others, there were some rules that could not be broken.
Since when could subordinates summon their superiors?
The Misty Rain Pavilion's two old men immediately exchanged glances, anger flashing on their faces.
"We need to ask for instructions."
The two old men spoke softly after exchanging glances.
"Hehe! There is no need to ask for instructions. How can this little girl not come when the envoy inspector summons me?"
Bell-Like laughter rang out from outside the door. Then, a girl wearing a red qipao walked in, revealing her long, slender legs. Her exquisite facial features looked like the most perfect carving, without any flaws.
The instant she entered, ancient paintings fell around the private room, forming an independent world, isolating it from the outside world.
The manservant, Zhang Ping, also fell into a deep slumber without a sound.
The Misty Rain Pavilion's Twin Demons paled in shock. They performed cupped-fist salutes and bowed. "This subordinate greets the envoy inspector. We offended you earlier. Please forgive us."
"It's fine."
Xiao Chen said indifferently. Then, he took out the appointment certificate that Ye Zifeng had given him and gently sent it to the girl in the qipao.
The girl in the qipao had only guessed it. When she saw the appointment certificate, she confirmed Xiao Chen's identity.
"This little girl is Su Ye. I welcome the envoy inspector to the Misty Rain Pavilion. I did not know the envoy inspector's identity earlier and offended you. Sorry for the poor reception."
The girl in the qipao returned the appointment certificate to Xiao Chen. Then, she smiled faintly and said, "Before you came, I was the acting envoy inspector. It looks like I will be idle for a while."
Xiao Chen said indifferently, "There's no need. Just do what you were doing before. If there are any problems that you cannot resolve, you can tell me. You still have to work hard. This is Mo Chen, Master Ku Yun's disciple. He will help you deal with this. "
Mo Chen smiled faintly and stood up. "Greetings, Elder Sister Su Ye. Please take care of me in the future."
Master Ku Yun's disciple?
A strange look flashed in Su Ye's eyes. Naturally, she knew about Master Ku Yun.
He was one of the strongest blacksmiths in the current Martial Epoch. At the same time, he was the Heavenly Alliance's oldest core Doyen.
What Mo Chen cared more about was Master Ku Yun's identity. Did that mean that this white-clad youth already obtained the support of two core Doyens?
Originally, the headquarters had sent a fellow who was not even one hundred years old just to go through the motions. Mo Chen thought that the headquarters had already given up on the Yanwu Dynasty and only wanted to maintain the status quo.
However, it looked like things were different now.
"These are my companions. They are all outstanding talents. Even before the age of one hundred, they are already Sovereign Emperors. If there is any trouble, you can send them out. There's no need to stand on ceremony. "
After introducing Mo Chen, Xiao Chen pointed to Wu Meng and the others beside him, introducing them one by one.
Su Ye's expression did not change. Her smile did not diminish, but her heart turned increasingly grave.
Is the headquarters really determined to stand guard in the Yanwu Dynasty?
"Lord Xiao, how do you intend to deal with today's matter? Duke Yun will definitely pursue this matter. At that time, the Misty Rain Pavilion will inevitably face some pressure. " Su Ye spoke for a while, giving instructions on the Misty Rain Pavilion's matters. Then, she suddenly changed the topic, trying to probe Xiao Chen.
Xiao Chen looked at Su Ye and smiled faintly. "I am a Sovereign Emperor. First, he humiliated me. Then, he tried to kill me. He died a worthy death. If you cannot even deal with such a small matter, you can't be the Misty Rain Pavilion's Pavilion Master, right? "
Su Ye wanted to use today's matter to pressure Xiao Chen, to see how he would deal with this when he just arrived in the imperial capital.
Who knew, Xiao Chen was even more direct. He told her not to make irresponsible remarks about such a small matter, lest she tarnished her status.
Xiao Chen's meaning was that if she could not deal with such a small matter, there was no need for her to be the Pavilion Master.
While Xiao Chen's words looked simple, they actually contained hidden meaning. If she did not deal with it properly, others would look down on her and even use her as a scapegoat.
Su Ye replied softly, "Naturally. Although this matter is somewhat difficult to deal with, this subordinate will definitely handle it properly."
Naturally, the Royal Clan disciples were incredibly noble. However, it was not to the point where they could kill anyone they wanted. Furthermore, Xiao Chen was just a king of a branch family.
However, Xiao Chen's attitude and the hidden meaning in his words made Su Ye somewhat wary.
This white-clad youth was probably not as simple as she imagined.
"If there is nothing else, this subordinate will take my leave first," Su Ye said softly.
"Wait."
Su Ye looked up at Xiao Chen and asked in confusion.
Xiao Chen fell into deep thought. "Your name is Su Ye, right? I recall that there is a Noble Clan of swordsmen in the Yanwu Dynasty. The current Clan Head, Su Hanshan, is known as the strongest expert of the Sword Dao, known as Sword God. "
When Su Ye heard this, he raised his eyebrows and asked sullenly, "What's wrong? Envoy Inspector, are you trying to investigate me? Didn't Lord Ye Zifeng tell you that some things cannot be investigated? "
It was just that he sensed a powerful Sword Intent hidden within this lady's body, so he casually asked her a question. Who would have thought that he would touch the other party's bottom line?
Xiao Chen was unperturbed and said coolly, "It's fine, you can withdraw. Remember to have the people in charge of the top ten Chambers of Commerce come and see me tomorrow. If anyone doesn't come, I'll see him alone. "
"I feel that it's not necessarily a good thing to be too hasty. The inspector has just arrived at the Imperial Capital, so there are many sights to see. For example, the Flaming River outside the city. It's magnificent and magnificent. You can take a good look at it. "
Su Ye's tone was calm as she spoke unhurriedly.
This woman wanted Xiao Chen to see the Flaming River to warn him to see how deep the waters of the Imperial Capital were and not to get involved.
Xiao Chen smiled faintly and said, "When I have time, I will go and take a look. If I accidentally fall into the river, I hope Pavilion Master Su will pull me up."
When Su Ye heard that, her expression warmed up somewhat. She smiled and said, "Milord, you jest. Goodbye."
