"You..."
The moment Chen Xiao opened his mouth.
Everyone was stunned.
Even Ji Feihan, who was already prepared, could not help but widen her eyes, her red lips slightly agape. For a moment, she was left dumbfounded.
Lu An's eyes widened, not daring to believe his ears.
"He, he, he... he admitted it just like that?"
He originally thought that.
Chen Xiao said that he wanted to take action personally because he had a complete plan.
But in the end...
He directly admitted his purpose without saying a word!
"This is equivalent to directly admitting it. How can we lure out the traitor?"
Sensing the increasingly turbulent aura in the small courtyard, Lu An could not help but feel a headache.
That white-bearded old man was also stunned.
After being stunned for a long while, his old face twitched and his expression suddenly turned cold. "Young man, this old man doesn't care where you come from or what your identity is, but it's best that you don't interfere in the internal affairs of the Aurora Chamber of Commerce!"
At this moment...
Everyone sensed a trace of an unusual aura.
"I was wondering why the Second Miss had gathered everyone here in such a hurry. So it's all because of you!"
Another Essence Soul realm protector sneered, not concealing his aura at all. "In the end, you want to play this game of traitors? Second Miss, I still need to treat my injuries. If there's nothing else, forgive me for not accompanying you! "
This protector was called Zhong Jue.
He was the most bad-tempered among the protectors of the Aurora Trade Union.
However, at this very moment.
Not only Zhong Jue, but the other Essence Soul protectors also cast unfriendly gazes at her.
"Second Miss, was this done by this person alone, or was it done by Second Miss? Can you give this old man an explanation?"
The white-bearded old man also spoke in a low voice. "This old man has worked hard for the trade union for many years, but in the end, all I get in return is this suspicion?"
One had to know.
Most traitors and spies were often in low positions.
And with their status, the possibility of betraying the trade union was already so small that it was negligible.
But Ji Feihan suspected them right from the start!
"Senior Jing is right! There has to be an explanation! "
"Could it be that our years of contributions are not worth a word from this kid?"
The rest of the custodians also voiced out their opinions.
"Protector Jing Zhong..."
Ji Feihan's expression changed slightly.
The current atmosphere was clearly not good.
Because of Chen Xiao's words, the guardians were enraged one after another. They felt that their dignity had been severely insulted!
"Second Miss, there should be an explanation for this matter."
Another protector looked over. It was a woman with a charming face. Her tone was unquestionable, "Second Miss should know that after President Changfeng disappeared, the Chamber of Commerce would have ceased to exist if not for us staying here."
"It's only for the sake of President Changfeng that we gave Second Miss a chance to explain."
"If it were any other Essence Soul realm cultivator here, they would most likely flip out on the spot."
Sentence after sentence of condemnation …
It caused the air in the small courtyard to practically freeze to the limit.
It was as if everything had been frozen. The air had turned into a steel plate, and Yuan Qi had turned into a boulder. In such an environment, even breathing was more difficult than usual!
"Contribution? Doubt? Insult my dignity? "
At this moment.
Chen Xiao suddenly grinned.
As he spoke, all of the pressure suddenly vanished like a bubble in an instant!
"Then, who can tell me that the Chamber of Commerce has not given you anything in return for everything you've done for so many years?"
"Naturally, the repayment is..."
The group of Essence Soul realm guardians choked.
All of them looked at each other and fell into speechlessness.
All these years.
The reason why they had stayed in the Aurora Chamber of Commerce...
On one hand, it was because of Ji Changfeng's charisma.
On the other hand, there would be generous rewards after every mission.
The amount was so large that most Essence Soul realm warriors would be tempted by it!
Otherwise...
How could they stay in the Aurora Chamber of Commerce forever?
Just from this point alone...
Both parties were mutually beneficial. The Chamber of Commerce did not owe them anything!
"Hmph, young people are indeed sharp-tongued!"
Just as Ji Feihan heaved a sigh of relief, Protector Jing Zhong snorted coldly.
His white hair moved without any wind, breaking the silence of the crowd.
"Based on what you're saying, could it be that the Aurora Chamber of Commerce thinks that we don't owe each other anything, so you intend to chase us out?"
It was a simple sentence.
Everyone's expression changed.
Jing Zhong's sentence could be said to have pierced through the heart!
Benefits were benefits …
But after so many years of interaction, they still had feelings for each other.
Protector Jing Zhong's words were equivalent to pushing both parties to the opposite side!
"Chase us out?"
Hearing this, Chen Xiao smiled even more happily. "The traitor in the Chamber of Commerce naturally has to be chased out. Protector Jing is so agitated. Could it be that he's the traitor?"
Many people's expressions changed again.
It was not an exaggeration to say...
As existences who had reached the Essence Soul realm, the number of times their expressions changed in this short moment was more than the number of times in the past few years combined!
"Brat, don't try to sow discord..." The white-bearded elder was so angry that he laughed.
"Since Protector Jing is not satisfied, then I'll use another method."
The smile on Chen Xiao's face suddenly disappeared.
Just as the protectors present thought that he was going to admit defeat, a terrifying aura suddenly spread from Chen Xiao's body.
It was as if a primordial divine mountain was pressing down, like a demonic cloud that covered the sky was spreading. An indescribable great terror suddenly turned into an indescribable shadow that suddenly spread wildly in the void!
At this moment.
Chen Xiao's sleeves fluttered even though there was no wind.
His calm voice reached everyone's ears, "I will beat all of you up until the traitor admits to it!"
"Beat all of us..."
"Beat the traitor until he admits?"
"How dare you! How dare you! "
After a short moment of daze.
Even the one with the best temper could not help but laugh out of anger at this moment.
The white-bearded elder was so angry that the Three Corpses God jumped up and raised his hand to release a divine power.
Suddenly, two mighty long rivers of water element attacked, like two long whips splitting the sky, making a deafening sound!
"Evil creature! No matter who you are! Even if the second mistress pleads for you, I'll teach you a lesson today! "
Rumble —
At the next moment.
Chen Xiao raised his hand and attacked.
There were no divine powers, no laws.
Just the explosion of his physical strength was enough to shatter the two long rivers of water element.
"You... Argh!"
Jing Zhong's body couldn't help but shake violently, like a kite that had lost its string, he flew into the air and fell out of the small courtyard!
At the same time.
Zhong Jue and the flirtatious woman attacked one after the other.
The former held a long saber in his hand, emitting a sharp saber light that was filled with dense murderous intent. He slashed the saber towards Chen Xiao's neck!
The latter's skirt fluttered in the wind. She looked like a willow catkin, but her body contained endless murderous intent!
However, at the next moment.
A palm swept across the sky, sending the two of them flying at the same time!
