Late at night, Tianxing City is silent, but the city lord's mansion is destined to have no sleep.
At this time, the lights in the city lord's palace were brightly lit, and many guards came and went, forming a heavy defense in the palace. The outside world could not find out what happened.
Inside the meeting hall
More than a dozen guards pushed Chen Chuan down and forced him to kneel down facing Chen Qingyun who was sitting directly above him.
On both sides were the chief officials, elders, and managers of the various parties, all gathered this time.
A manager with a gray beard looked deeply at the embarrassed Chen Chuan on the ground.
"Chen Chuan, why are you doing this! Your status in Tianxing City is already very high. Even the city lord has never controlled you at all. It can be said that you are walking sideways. Is there anything you are not satisfied with?"
Everyone looked at each other with confusion on their faces.
Although the dignified commander is not the biological son of the city lord, he has been very kind to him over the years and has almost handed over all affairs to him to manage. Isn't such a status and such treatment enough?
"Yes, Chen Chuan, why are you doing this! You can't be a white-eyed wolf or a beast!"
There were a lot of discussions and different opinions. Feng Mian was also present. He looked at Chen Xiaohu and said nothing.
But Chen Xiaohu is only a teenager after all, and some things cannot be hidden at all.
"What else is difficult to understand? He is just a white-eyed wolf. What can I, the city lord, do to apologize to him? I have long seen that his heart is not here and he has been planning something, right?"
Often the people who are least believed see the true nature of things.
But why did the city lord take down Chen Chuan so easily? Because from the beginning, the city lord believed in his son. On the surface, he left everything to Chen Chuan, but in fact, he was secretly planning it and was ready to take action at any time.
As soon as Chen Xiaohu opened his mouth, everyone's eyes were focused on him, and with a thought, they seemed to understand.
"Bold Chen Chuan, it turns out that your goal has always been on the Young City Master! Could it be that the Young City Master's physical problems are not congenital? Chen Chuan, you'd better make it clear, otherwise you will be cut into pieces!"
The elder stepped forward quickly, grabbed Chen Chuan's collar, lifted it up, and stared at him fiercely.
But at this moment, Chen Chuan didn't resist, and kept a sneer on his face. But this smile let everyone know that he still had something hidden in his heart, and he must have something to hide, but he just refused to say it.
"Haha... Okay! Then you kill me! It's best to cut me into pieces, so I won't lose. At least the noble young master, Chen Xiaohu, will be buried with him. My, Chen Chuan, life is worth it!"
After the words fell, there was a muffled sound from the main seat, and the table in front of him shattered.
"You all stand down and let him speak for himself. How in the world do I, Chen Qingyun, feel sorry for you, Chen Chuan?"
Chen Chuan stood up and looked at everything in front of him coldly, finally focusing on Chen Xiaohu.
"Yes, you are indeed not sorry for me. But your mistake is that you insist on letting Chen Xiaohu come back! Originally, everything here belonged to me. Once he came back, everything was wrong, and I became redundant!"
On the right side, the elder flicked his sleeves and snorted coldly: "It's unreasonable. What do you think you are? You want to be comparable to the young master? Even if the young master is in some condition, he is still the direct descendant of the city lord, and no one can change him!"
"Wrong, you are all wrong! He, Chen Xiaohu, is just a waste, a waste that has not even succeeded in cultivation. Why should I occupy the position of young master? Can't you see what I, Chen Chuan, have done for Tianxing City these years?

Feng Mian looked at this scene calmly, and as expected, he was right. Chen Chuan had a problem in his heart. He thought that his great achievements could overwhelm his master, so he regarded himself as the master of the city lord's palace, but the reality was not like this.
"I don't understand. He, Chen Xiaohu, is already a useless person. Why do you still support him so much? Everything in Star City today was taken down by me, Chen Chuan. Why can he, Chen Xiaohu, just sit back and enjoy the gains?"
The face of City Lord Chen Qingyun became increasingly ugly. Xiaohu wanted to rush out, but was stopped by Feng Mian.
"Chen Chuan, you are so presumptuous! You really don't know who you are. You are just a small guard. To put it bluntly, you are a watchdog. You dare to overstep like this. You are simply ignorant of life and death!"
The elder waved his sleeves, and a burst of energy shot out. Chen Chuan instantly flew backwards, vomiting blood.
The next second, the elder wanted to continue, but Feng Mian stopped him: "Wait!"
The city lord frowned and looked at Feng Mian. The latter turned around and handed over his hands: "He can't die now!"
Chen Chuan stood up staggeringly, smiling ferociously. Blood overflowed from his mouth.
"Haha...haha...kill! You should kill! If you kill me, Chen Xiaohu will be completely hopeless. Chen Qingyun, you never thought of it, right? What kind of congenital defect is just a cover-up!"
An afterimage flashed past, and Chen Qingyun had a sullen face and strangled his neck.
"You'd better speak clearly. What's going on? What did you do to Xiaohu?"
Although Chen Qingyun suspected that Chen Xiaohu's problem was related to Chen Chuan, he never found out what was going on. Now that he said it himself, he was sure that it was really him, so he could hardly control it.
"Haha... you kill me! If you kill me, your son will be buried with me. Congenital defect? What a joke! In fact, your son's talent is extremely high. Otherwise, how could I have put so much effort into him to transform him into what he is today?
so?"
Chen Xiaohu's expression also changed. He quickly stepped forward and stared at Chen Chuan: "What on earth did you do to me!"
Looking at Chen Xiaohu ferociously, Chen Chuan's blood was still flowing out.
"Haha...what did you do? You are stupid and trust others too easily. Do you still remember the sandalwood I gave you? It is a refreshing and refreshing thing. Do you think that is really what it does? What a fool!"
Sandalwood? Chen Xiaohu fell into memories, and his expression soon changed: "You mean there's something wrong with that sandalwood!"
The strength in Chen Qingyun's hand increased a bit, and Chen Chuan's face turned purple.
"Haha... I advise you to let me go, otherwise your son will be completely hopeless."
Feng Mian stepped forward to stop the city lord from acting impulsively and shook his head at him.
"You have used poison on the young master a long time ago? How did you do it without being noticed?"
Chen Chuan staggered back and stared at Feng Mian: "That's not refreshing at all, but a spiritual incense. It won't have any effect in a day or two. Unless it is used for a long time, the spiritual power in the body will gradually dissipate."
I finally understood that this was the reason why Chen Xiaohu’s cultivation had not been smooth, with good times and bad times, and the reason why his spiritual power collapsed. Because sometimes he would use the sandalwood, and sometimes not.
But over time, even if he is not used, the toxins accumulated in his body will affect his cultivation, which is why Chen Xiaohu became like this.
"Hand over the antidote to me! Otherwise I will make you disappear into ashes now!"
Chen Qingyun was about to lose his mind. He didn't expect that he had cultivated a white-eyed wolf for so many years, harmed his own son, and made him look down upon for so many years. Obviously it was
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
Genius, but...
"Haha...wiped to ashes? Okay! Take action immediately, but your son is completely hopeless."
After breaking away from Chen Qingyun, Chen Chuan raised his eyebrows and said coldly: "The antidote is in my body. As long as you hand over your position as city lord now and take your son out of Tianxing City, I will save him!"
Many elders and chiefs stood up and glared at Chen Chuan: "Shameless person, what are you dreaming about? It turns out that you have been wanting to take Tianxing City as your own for these years. What is your purpose of doing this?
What?"
At this time, Feng Mian stepped forward and held Chen Xiaohu's shoulders to reassure him.
Looking at Chen Chuan, he said calmly: "You must have put so much effort into planning it many years ago, not just for yourself, right? The people behind you must also be impatient, right?"
He was anxious to practice the Tianxing Sword Technique, but he couldn't calm down. As a result, the spiritual martial arts skills backfired on him, and he was injured everywhere on his body. He must have other purposes in order to seize control of Tianxing City.
"Chen Chuan, actually if you are more patient, you might succeed. The city lord has been forced to agree to the conditions of certain forces. The plan is being carried out step by step, but you are too impatient."
Chen Qingyun's expression changed and he looked at Feng Mian. It turned out that he had known everything for a long time, but he just kept calm.
"I didn't know what was going on inside Young Master Chen Xiaohu before, so I didn't dare to take action rashly. But if it's as you said, it's just a matter of incense, it's not impossible to solve it."
When Chen Chuan heard this, his expression changed drastically. This was his last trump card. If Feng Mian could really solve it, then he would be worthless. With his actions, the city lord would definitely not let him go.
"Don't believe it? Then we can give it a try. Now that your affair has been exposed, do you think you can still save your life? If the plan fails, you will not be able to take control of the city lord's palace, so the people behind you will not let you go, right?
.”
Turning around, Feng Mian waved his hand casually: "Xiaohu, you decide for yourself, kill or keep?"
Everyone focused their attention on the young city lord, waiting for his decision.
This scene happened so suddenly that Chen Xiaohu had no idea for a moment.
Chen Qingyun stepped forward and brushed his forehead: "Xiaohu, you are the young master of my Tianxing City. This matter concerns you. Of course, you make your own decisions. Father, I will listen to you in everything now!"
After thinking, Chen Xiaohu looked at Feng Mian: "Brother, are you sure you can solve the problem in my body?"
Nodding: "Although the incense is obscure and you have been inhaling it for such a long time, I think it is not difficult to solve it. I'm afraid Chen Chuan's reliance is of no use."
With a raised brow, Chen Xiaohu's expression became serious.
"Okay, since eldest brother says so, then I believe you."
Taking a step forward, Chen Xiaohu raised his hand and waved: "Chen Chuan, the commander of the City Lord's Mansion, and the following offenders conspired to frame me and attempted to seize control of the City Lord's Mansion. According to the rules, they should be executed immediately!"
The next second, many guards came forward, pushed Chen Chuan down, and raised their swords to kill him.
At the critical moment, something unexpected happened. A figure flashed over, and the powerful energy swept away the guard. He grabbed Chen Chuan's shoulders and rushed out. The speed was so fast that the figure could hardly be seen clearly.
Seeing this, Chen Qingyun snorted coldly: "Huh! You want to run away? You want to take someone away in my city lord's mansion. That's unimaginable." His body flashed and turned into an afterimage and rushed out. The energy in his palms condensed and matched with the incoming person.
