"Yes, I know what to do," the man replied without hesitation.
"If you do it well, you'll be rewarded. But if someone notices anything, don't blame me for being ruthless, "Pei Yuanqing said coldly.
"Don't worry, Young Master. I'll definitely do it well."
"Good. Then it's time for us to move out," Pei Yuanqing nodded casually, then looked at Si Marui. "Is everything arranged?"
"Yes, everything is arranged. Although we have to pay a bit more, it's still worth it. We can avoid the brunt of the attack for now," Si Marui said slowly.
"Mm, that's for the best. A temporary fight won't do much." Pei Yuanqing was clearly very satisfied.
"Say, do you think your plan this time will be able to get rid of him?" Si Marui's eyes flashed as he asked again.
"He must die!" Pei Yuanqing spat out coldly.
Si Marui didn't ask any more questions. The two of them didn't continue talking, and the atmosphere suddenly became silent.
… …
The No Beginning Region had existed for eons, but it still hadn't been fully explored.
The deepest part was connected to the legendary Land of Chaos. Even peak existences would have a slim chance of survival if they entered.
The Laws of Heaven and Earth here were slightly different from those in the Great World.
The territory here was vast and boundless. It was divided into countless regions, and there were countless factions. It was truly a place where the good and the bad mixed together.
The Land of Chaos was just an inconspicuous and unremarkable region in the No Beginning Region.
In a luxurious courtyard in the Chi 'an Prefecture, after a flash of light, a group of people appeared.
It was Xiao Chen and the others who had received a mission from Ding 'an City and teleported over.
"That teleportation is really impressive. It teleported Da Huang, Chen Hao, and myself to three different places at the same time, "Xiao Chen looked to his side and sighed.
Now, he only had Wen Xiu, Zang Qing, and the relatively outstanding followers he had chosen!
"The various energies of heaven and earth here are indeed more heterogeneous than in the Immortal World!"
Xiao Chen and the others could clearly sense the uniqueness of the Domain of No Beginning after sensing it for a while.
However, they didn't have much time to think. As soon as they appeared from the teleportation formation, a voice rang out.
"Chi 'an Prefecture Steward Yang Kangning greets the Prefecture Master!"
Xiao Chen immediately looked in the direction of the voice and saw a rather skinny man leading a group of people who were bowing respectfully to him.
"Thank you, Steward Yang!" Xiao Chen said politely.
"Lord Mansion Lord, you're too polite. Lord Mansion Lord has just arrived here, so please take a rest inside the hall. I'll give you a detailed introduction to Scarlet Peace Prefecture later," Yang Kangning said as he began to lead the way.
At the same time, the other person beside Yang Kangning was very perceptive, and he helped Xiao Chen's ordinary attendants settle down.
Xiao Chen, Wen Xiu, Zang Qing, and Yang Kangning entered the hall.
As soon as they sat down, Xiao Chen found that there was a cup of tea beside him. He picked it up and took a sip.
The taste of the tea was very good. There was a special sweetness that lingered on his taste buds, making Xiao Chen show a look of enjoyment.
After a while, Xiao Chen's expression returned to normal.
At this time, Yang Kangning took a step forward, bowed slightly, and said, "Prefecture Master, our Chi 'an Prefecture is just an ordinary territory, so the conditions are a little simple. Please forgive us, Prefecture Master!"
He waved his hand. He didn't care about this kind of sales knowledge.
Yang Kangning saw this and continued, "Usually, there are only two teams of guards, a total of 160 people, who take turns on duty. Apart from that, there are about seven million people in Chi 'an Prefecture who have no home to return to and have sought refuge in the Immortal World."
"That many?" Xiao Chen was a little surprised.
Those homeless people naturally came here after their worlds were invaded and plundered, their families broken and their people dead.
Of course, there were also some who were hunted down by their enemies, and some who came here for other reasons.
Those who weren't strong would naturally choose to seek refuge in the stronger Great Worlds that hadn't been invaded and plundered.
That was why there were so many different regional powers.
For example, Chi 'an Prefecture belonged to the Immortal World and was managed by Ding Nan City. Everyone in Chi' an Prefecture had sought refuge in the Immortal World. However, they couldn't directly enter the Immortal World to cultivate, so they lived here.
To a certain extent, they could also be considered a part of the Immortal World. If the Immortal World was invaded by other Great Worlds in the future, they would also have to contribute.
However, the Chaos Lands and the Crimson Peace Prefecture were just small places after all. Yet, they still had so many people. Xiao Chen was quite surprised.
"Prefecture Master, this number of people is actually nothing. It's not a lot. Think about it. How many living beings are there in a Great World? How many experts are there? When a Great World is destroyed, those lucky enough to escape may be less than one in a hundred million, but it's still a huge number scattered here. This is considered a very small number. After all, there are many Great Worlds that have been completely destroyed! "Yang Kangning shook his head.
Xiao Chen instantly fell silent. It was only when he heard this that he truly realized how serious and terrifying this matter was.
However …
"There are so many people, but only two guards. Can they handle it?" He quickly returned to the crux of the problem.
"Prefecture Master. These destitute fellows have chosen to seek refuge, so they are naturally rather peaceful. Otherwise, they will be expelled if they cause trouble. Therefore, they usually don't have any trouble. They are all very well-behaved. Apart from fighting for resources, they usually spend most of their time cultivating! "Yang Kangning said again.
"Oh, that's good!" Xiao Chen nodded in understanding.
After that, Yang Kangning roughly introduced the basic situation here. Now, Xiao Chen had a basic understanding of the entire Chi 'an Prefecture.
As the Prefecture Master, he basically had nothing to do. He only needed to suppress people who could cause chaos. Other times, he could be said to be very idle.
However, this kind of leisure was only relative. If he really encountered a troublesome situation, he could be in mortal danger at any time.
However, this was enough to make Xiao Chen feel very satisfied. It was far better than what he had expected, where he would have to spend a lot of time to deal with some miscellaneous matters after coming here.
"Steward Yang, do you think it's possible to expand the territory of Chi 'an Prefecture?" Xiao Chen's eyes flashed as he suddenly asked.
"Expand the territory?!" Yang Kangning was instantly stunned.
