"What other background could he have? Isn't he just a native of Barbarian City?"
Zhang Tianci showed a trace of disdain, "If it weren't for you, father, promoting him, would he be where he is today?"
Hearing this, Zhang Tao's face suddenly turned cold, and he said in a cold voice: "You only know how to spend your days drinking and partying, and you don't even know what the people around you are like!"
"Why do you think I promoted Liao Qing? Do you really think I was attracted by his abilities?"
"Humph, if we really talk about ability, there are at least eighty people in this Barbarian City who are stronger than Liao Qing, if not a hundred!"
"The reason I support him is because he is lucky enough to have a good wife!"
"His wife is a true disciple of the Tianshan Sect! She has a high status in the Tianshan Sect!"
"If it weren't for his wife, do you think I would let Liao Qing run the brothel and rice shop? Don't I know how much money these two businesses can make every year?"
Hearing this, Zhang Tianci was shocked and said in disbelief, "The old guy surnamed Liao actually married a true disciple of the Tianshan Sect? Damn, is this a crime?"
"No wonder you turned a blind eye when he wanted to do the brothel and rice shop business. I couldn't understand it at the time, but now I finally know!"
Tianshan Sect is the largest sect in the border area!
Although it is not as good as the Snow Sword Sect where An Ruxue is, it is not much weaker!
The leader of the Tianshan Sect is said to be a top master who has reached the peak of martial arts!
He has even stepped half a foot into the realm of Martial Emperor!
He is an absolutely terrifying figure!
Not to mention the border areas, even in the entire Dagan Dynasty, he has the ability to call the wind and rain!
The true disciple of Tianshan Sect is definitely the core figure of the sect!
After all, a sect is usually divided into outer disciples, inner disciples, and true disciples. After reaching a certain age, they become elders!
If the Tianshan Sect sends out any true disciple, any governor of the 24 border cities will line the streets to welcome him.
Even the governor of the border state, the provincial governor in charge of the twenty-four cities, would give him some face.
"Father, this means that the idiot Chen Xuan has kidnapped Liao Qing's son. This is a huge mistake. Liao Jun's mother, the true disciple of the Tianshan Sect, will definitely not let him go!"
Zhang Tianci suddenly showed a look of ecstasy, as if he had found a pie in the sky!
"Humph, that's why I won't get involved in this mess. Just wait and see. Liao Qing will never give him 10,000 dan of rice. And Chen Xuan is a greedy man. He won't let me go until he gets what he wants!"
"The two of them will definitely fight to the death!"
"I am looking forward to it. If Chen Xuan can kill Liao Jun, that would be the best. Liao Jun's mother will definitely eliminate Chen Xuan at all costs, even using the power of the Tianshan Sect."
“Haha, if we can really use the power of Tianshan Sect, ten Chen Xuans would not be enough to kill us!”
There were bursts of sinister and cold laughter coming from the prefect's mansion.
Courtyard.
"Master Chen, Liao Jun's father is here!"
Xiao Liuzi ran in happily to report.
At this time, the courtyard was filled with the aroma of food. The sky was gradually getting dark and they were having dinner.
"Oh, he's finally here. I thought he wouldn't come today. His baby son will have to go hungry for the whole day."
Chen Xuan smiled happily and asked casually, "How many truckloads of rice did he bring?"
Xiao Liuzi immediately made a sound of disgust and cursed, "He brought nothing with him, just a carriage and a few servants."
"Didn't you bring rice?"
Chen Xuan raised his eyebrows, "You want to save his son without any rice? Then I have to meet him and see what tricks he wants to play!"
When the prefect and his men came to ask for people yesterday, they didn't bring any money, but they did bring soldiers.
Now Liao Qing actually dared to come here with only a few servants. Is he so brave?
Chen Xuan strode out of the courtyard and saw a sedan chair parked at the door.
Liao Qing had already gotten off the sedan chair, with several servants standing beside him.
What surprised Chen Xuan was that one of the servants had a sharp look in his eyes, which was obviously unusual and his aura was very strong.
This person turned out to be a martial arts master!
A martial arts master is willing to be a servant of the Liao family?
It seems that the Liao family is quite capable!
"Are you Liao Jun's father?"
Chen Xuan did not take this martial artist seriously.
Because he discovered that this martial artist was only at the first level of martial artist.
And now Chen Xuan is already a third-level martial artist!
Even without using martial arts, Chen Xuan could still control him with one hand. This martial artist was not worthy of Chen Xuan's second glance.
"You are Chen Xuan? You are the one who kidnapped my son?"
Liao Qing looked Chen Xuan up and down.
He knew Chen Xuan, but he didn't expect that Chen Xuan was so young!
He looks to be only in his early twenties, how could he give the prefect a headache?
"That's wrong. What do you mean I kidnapped your son? It was clearly your son who brought people to pick a fight. He took the initiative to provoke trouble, but he was outskilled and I took care of him. This was legitimate defense."
Chen Xuan shrugged.
Saying "kidnapping" sounds too harsh, as if Chen Xuan is the bad guy.
It was obvious that Liao Jun was the one who caused the trouble first. It was just that this guy was unlucky and hit the wall of Chen Xuan.
If Chen Xuan was a little weaker, he would be the one beaten to the ground like a dead dog.
Moreover, the women around him will be taken away.
"I don't care about right or wrong. I just know that my son is in your hands now. Just tell me what you want me to do in exchange for letting my son go."
Liao Qing spoke with a stern face. How could he not know that it was Liao Jun who started the trouble first?
But what does it matter if they know that? Their Liao family is a superior family. They are born superior to others, so it is normal for them to act in a domineering manner.
Chen Xuan found that Liao Qing was extremely arrogant. He was clearly there to redeem his son, but his attitude was so arrogant that his tone was even higher than that of the governor of Mancheng.
"Didn't I ask someone to tell you? Ten thousand dan of rice in exchange for your son's life." Chen Xuan said calmly.
Liao Qing refused without a second thought: "This is impossible!"
"Really?"
Chen Xuan narrowed his eyes slightly, his eyes shot out a sharp light, staring at him, and said word by word,
"If I don't see 10,000 dan of rice by noon tomorrow, your son will die!"
Since the other party's attitude is so tough, there is no need for Chen Xuan to beat around the bush with him. He must be tougher than him!
"You dare?!"
Liao Qing's eyes suddenly widened to the size of a cow's.
"If you don't believe it, you can try it." Chen Xuan sneered.
"Mr. Yang, teach him a lesson!" Liao Qing was furious and suddenly spoke to the servant beside him who was at the martial artist level.
