Since Zhang Wenjie didn't know Liu Changxu, the third grandfather Zhang Yinghao had no choice but to come forward and introduce him to everyone.
When he learned that the old man in front of him was Chen Liyuan, the city lord of Jinhu City, Liu Changxu was quite surprised. He did not expect that this city lord Chen would arrive at this time. Although he was a little confused, Liu Changxu still stepped forward to greet him enthusiastically:
"Changxu has met City Lord Chen and has admired him for a long time!"
"I heard that a distinguished guest came to the city. I came here to pay a visit because of my admiration. Please forgive me, junior brother!"
Next, the two foxes, one large and one small, started a verbal exchange in a seemingly harmonious atmosphere.
"Junior brother left the city just now and I don't know what happened!"
"Oh! I heard that my father-in-law died in the hands of lake bandits. As a son-in-law, I will not allow such evil people to stay in the world. I just went out to bring these scum to justice and avenge my father-in-law. Now those lake bandits have been captured. I'll catch them all."
"Oh! There are also things like this. I have devoted myself to cultivation and failed to pay serious attention to this matter. I have sent Jinhu Guard monks to encircle and suppress them many times before, but failed to eradicate them, allowing these evil bandits to live freely until now.
As soon as Junior Brother came to our Jinhu City, he personally took action to get rid of this big harm to our Jinhu City. Junior Brother Gao Yi, on behalf of the Lord's Palace of Jinhu City, I would like to express my gratitude! Of course, I will also give Junior Brother a generous gift. I hope Junior Brother will not give it up when the time comes. decline!"
Chen Liyuan had long been aware of his son's connection with the lake bandits. In order to prevent his son from going astray, he had sent the Jinhu Guard monks under the city lord's palace to encircle and suppress him many times. However, these lake bandits were too cunning. It has never been cleaned up, and it has been wiped out one after another.
He knew that the reason why there was a steady stream of lake bandits was that the resources for cultivating immortals were increasingly unable to meet the needs compared to the increase in the number of cultivators.
Therefore, when many monks cannot obtain enough cultivation resources through formal channels, they eventually take risks and become evil cultivators or lake bandits, killing people, stealing goods, and looting.
Therefore, when the Jinhu Guard monks conducted several encirclement and suppression campaigns with no results, Chen Liyuan did not send any more encirclement and suppression campaigns, but he did not know that his son was deeply involved and leaked information to the lake bandits many times, resulting in the failure of the encirclement and suppression campaign.
It was also the failure of the City Lord's Mansion in many encirclement and suppression campaigns that made the Lake Bandits relax their vigilance. Faced with Liu Changxu's sudden attack, the Lake Bandits who were rampant for a while were wiped out in one fell swoop.
Liu Changxu couldn't help but wonder when he saw that Chen Liyuan looked as normal and rewarded him. Didn't Chen Liyuan know about the evil things his son had done? He still wanted to come and repair the relationship on his son's behalf!
However, when Chen Liyuan spoke like this, Liu Changxu responded enthusiastically, saying:
"City Master Chen is ridiculously complimentary. I can't speak of Gao Yi. He just fulfilled his responsibilities as a junior. We can't let the murderer of my child's grandfather go unpunished!"
…
After Chen Liyuan chatted with Liu Changxu for a while, he said goodbye and left. He also found out the information he needed. The next step was to use his connections in the sect to find out about Liu Changxu's background.
Although he and Liu Changxu had a very happy chat just now, it was just an appearance. As for whether to fight or end peace, the key depends on the strength of both parties. If Liu Changxu himself does not have any background that makes him afraid, for the sake of his son's future personal safety, he will not Mind if you find a few friends to surround and kill Liu Changxu.
For him, an old monster who has lived for hundreds of years, saying one thing and doing another is his specialty!
After Liu Changxu sent Chen Liyuan away, he also frowned. He knew that this kind of person could express his emotions and anger, and he would smile all over his face one second, and then he would kill with a knife the next.
He believed that after City Lord Chen returned to the City Lord's Mansion, he would immediately use his connections to find out more about him. At that time, he might summon a few golden elixir friends to surround him.
Although Liu Changxu is quite confident in his own strength, he has his wife and children with him! It seems that this place is no longer a safe place.
However, Chen Liyuan was still a man of his word. After returning to the palace, he sent the city lord's palace to take charge, and a late-stage foundation-building monk sent him a generous gift.
Liu Changxu took a look and found that the spiritual objects inside were quite precious, including one third-order low-grade aqua blue bead, three second-order high-grade azure blue beads, five pieces of second-order top-grade gold silk, and so on.
That night, Zhang Wenjie, the ancestor of the Zhang family, ordered his clan to hold a sumptuous dinner for Liu Changxu's family.
The Zhang family members were elated after learning that all the lake bandits had been wiped out! The senior Zhang family members who attended the dinner toasted to Liu Changxu with great enthusiasm. Liu Changxu was not afraid of this. These first-order spiritual wines were as delicious to him.
The drink is average, no matter how much it is, it will not affect him as a golden elixir monk!
At the dinner, the one who was in the best mood was none other than Mrs. Shen. Now her daughter, who had been away from home for many years, has returned and brought a son-in-law of a Jindan monk. Although her daughter's status is not high and she is just a concubine, she still makes herself happy.
With an extremely tough backer, the wife of her dead husband no longer dares to sit on her head and shit.
In addition, her husband took revenge and her daughter gave birth to a lovely granddaughter. Her mood was as sweet as eating honey! She couldn't hide the smile on her face.
When Yun'er faced her grandma, she fully demonstrated her cute and cute side, and brought out all her skills in coaxing her father, which was extremely useful to Shen.
Zhang Wenjun had not seen his mother for a long time, so he felt that he had endless things to say.
After the dinner, Liu Changxu and Zhang Wenjie, the ancestor of the Zhang family, entered the secret room and had a secret conversation.
A night of silence.
At dawn the next morning, Liu Changxu's family left the Zhang family in a low-key manner, accompanied by Zhang Wenjie, the ancestor of the Zhang family, Zhang Yinghao, the third grandfather, and Shen, the mother-in-law.
When I left, I was still riding the spiritual weapon flying boat sacrificed by Li Zhenxin.
It wasn't until some distance away from Jinhu City that we transferred to the Nine-Tian Moon Chasing Boat.
It's not that Liu Changxu is careful, and you can't overestimate the bottom line of an immortal cultivator. The most important thing is that his wife and children are by his side. Once Chen Liyuan gathers a few golden elixir monks to intercept and kill him, it will be difficult to ensure that his family will not be harmed.
Compared with ordinary people, the bottom line of immortal cultivators, especially high-level immortal cultivators, is extremely low. Although Qingyun Sect claims to be righteous, it is only a superficial phenomenon. It is not uncommon for disciples within the sect to secretly assassinate each other.
The bad blood between families is endless.
Therefore, the disciples within the Qingyun Sect are extremely enthusiastic about forming cliques! Everyone joins the group to keep warm and avoid suffering losses in the competition for interests.
Liu Changxu was troubled by the fact that he had provoked a powerful enemy in this trip, and he had limited knowledge of the background of the Chen family and his son. After returning to Zixia Mountain, he had to quickly conduct a detailed investigation into the background of the Chen family and his son.
Last night I had a secret conversation with Zhang Wenjie, the ancestor of the Zhang family, and asked for advice on the background of the Chen family and his son. However, Zhang Wenjie's level was too low and he didn't know much about the details of the Chen family and his son. He only knew that there was a Nascent Soul cultivator behind the Chen family and his son.
