"Let's hide in the dark first and see if anyone from 'the universe' will come."
After Xiao Chen finished everything, he still felt a little unwilling.
The fish finally appeared, but it committed suicide?
This is an insult to anglers...
He also felt that he was careless. He was on guard against any big tricks this foreigner might have, but he didn't guard against suicide.
"good."
Zhao Xinghe nodded and had no objection.
The three of them hid in the dark, waiting quietly.
Soon, someone came over.
The noise just now was quite loud and it was impossible not to attract attention.
"Not a foreign devil..."
Zhao Xinghe looked at the person who came and whispered.
"Not very strong either."
"Um."
Xiao Chen nodded, it should be someone who happened to be nearby.
One after another, several more people came over, the strongest of whom was in the late stage of Hua Jin...there was no foreign face at all.
"Let's go."
After ten minutes or so, Xiao Chen gave up. It seemed that the people from the "universe" were not around.
They were also relieved to see a strong man of innate level coming forward.
It would probably take a long time before they realized something was wrong and came out to look for it.
But he had destroyed the body and all traces of the corpse, so it was impossible for the people in the 'universe' to find any clues.
Afterwards, the three left the scene and came to a pavilion.
"Thank you for saving my life, Su Xiaoyou. If it weren't for you, I might not have been able to escape tonight."
Zhao Xinghe looked at Xiao Chen, bowed, and bent over.
"You're too polite, Senior Zhao. Didn't you just thank me?"
Xiao Chen hurriedly gave him a hand.
"It's just a small favor. You're welcome."
"Although it's just a piece of cake for you, it's a life-saving favor for me."
Zhao Xinghe said seriously.
"Senior Zhao, please take a seat. Let's have a chat."
Xiao Chen pointed at the stone bench and said.
"good."
Zhao Xinghe nodded and sat down.
"At least, we are sure that they are from the 'universe'."
Ning Kejun could see that Xiao Chen was still a little depressed, and said softly.
"It was just a guess before, but now it's confirmed, isn't it?"
"Too."
Hearing Ning Kejun's words, Xiao Chen nodded.
Before, Su Shiming only mentioned the "universe", but he was not completely sure.
And now it is certain that they are the people of the 'universe'.
This can also be considered a gain.
"It seems that Su Xiaoyou has some connection with this 'universe' organization?"
Zhao Xinghe looked at Xiao Chen and asked.
"Well, to be honest with Senior Zhao, I came here for the 'universe'."
Xiao Chen nodded.
"I heard that there have been a series of disappearances of independent cultivators here, so I rushed here specially."
"oh?"
Zhao Xinghe was a little surprised. He came for them, not for the ruins of Southern Wu?
"Today I heard that someone got a chance to carve stones, but is it Mr. Su?"
"Haha, that's an exaggeration. How can I get the chance to carve stones?"
Xiao Chen smiled.
"The stone carvings were badly damaged, I just had a little insight..."
"So that's how it is."
Zhao Xinghe nodded and didn't ask any more questions.
Regardless of whether what Xiao Chen said was true or false, he believed it.
If nothing else, it was because Xiao Chen saved his life.
"Senior Zhao is very powerful, why did he come to the Nanwu Ruins?"
Xiao Chen was thinking about something and was a little curious.
He has been wandering around the Southern Wu ruins for the whole day today. He has seen a lot of Hua Jin, but he has never seen a Hua Jin that has reached its Great Perfection.
Zhao Xinghe was still the first one.
Logically speaking, someone with this kind of strength shouldn't have come to the Southern Wu ruins.
But that’s not necessarily true. Didn’t the previous Demon Lord Huaze also come... and then disappeared?
"I came here not for an opportunity, but for a kind of medicinal herb..."
Zhao Xinghe explained.
"My grandson got a strange disease, so I took him to see the White-robed Saint. He looked up ancient medical books and found a prescription, but it was missing a main ingredient... and this herb is said to have appeared in Nanwu Mountain, so I came here."
"So that's how it is."
Xiao Chen suddenly realized.
"So, Su Xiaoyou not only saved me, but also saved my grandson. If I died here, he would not have survived either."
Zhao Xinghe said this and was about to stand up again.
"Senior Zhao, please don't be polite. Since we have met, it must be fate."
Xiao Chen said hurriedly.
"Besides, I'm here for the Universe as well. Even if you weren't here, I would still take action."
"No matter what, the grace of saving my life is real."
Zhao Xinghe said seriously.
“…”
Xiao Chen smiled helplessly. He didn't expect that he came to the Nanwu ruins, did not do any work, but saved people twice.
"Friend Su, I think we should spread the news about what happened here..."
Zhao Xinghe thought of something and said in a deep voice.
"How can the Chinese ancient martial arts world allow foreigners to come and stir up trouble? This matter should be notified to the Dragon Emperor."
"Senior Zhao, there's no need to bother. I came here to resolve this matter."
Xiao Chen smiled.
Hearing this, Zhao Xinghe was startled, then thought of Xiao Chen's strength and nodded again.
With Xiao Chen's strength, he should be able to solve it.
However, when he faced Xiao Chen, he always had a sense of unreality... Xiao Chen's age was the same as his grandson's, but the difference in strength was huge!
"That's right. With Su Xiaoyou here, we can handle them."
Zhao Xinghe said.
"I really didn't expect to meet such a powerful young man like Su Xiaoyou... I've heard before that the peerless genius Xiao Chen, at a young age, has innate strength. He founded the 'Longmen' and rose to prominence overnight, and everyone in the world knows about it."
“…”
Xiao Chen blinked. Did he hear his name again?
"I have heard of Patriarch Xiao's great name for a long time but never met him. I didn't expect to meet Little Friend Su today... Hehe, you and Patriarch Xiao are both extraordinary geniuses."
Zhao Xinghe smiled.
"cough……"
Xiao Chen coughed dryly. When he heard the Gong brothers praising him, he thought it was nothing.
But being praised by an old man, even he felt a little embarrassed.
"What's wrong?"
Zhao Xinghe heard Xiao Chen coughing and asked hurriedly.
"But you were injured in the battle just now?"
"No, no, he's just a foreign devil. I can kill him with a wave of my hand."
Xiao Chen said casually.
“…”
If someone else said this, Zhao Xinghe would think it was bragging, but he had just witnessed Xiao Chen's strength with his own eyes, so he was naturally convinced.
"Yes, Su Xiaoyou's strength is really strong."
"Well, Senior Zhao, how many days have you been in the Nanwu Ruins?"
Xiao Chen changed the subject. He was afraid that Zhao Xinghe would continue to praise him... He was still a little too thin-skinned and couldn't handle it.
"Today is the third day."
Zhao Xinghe replied.
"However, I have only been to the Nanwu Ruins once, and there were too many people there. Even if there were herbs, they would have been picked or destroyed long ago... During the past three days, I have basically been to other places in Nanwu Mountain, especially some places with few people."
"Three days..."
Xiao Chen's eyes flashed. After only three days here, he was already being targeted by people from the 'universe'?
Is it a coincidence?
Or should we mark them as targets and then take action?
If it was the latter, then the foreigner was dead, but Zhao Xinghe was fine... The people from the 'universe' would definitely find Zhao Xinghe after investigating.
Thinking of this, Xiao Chen had some ideas.
"Senior Zhao, how did you meet that foreigner just now?"
Xiao Chen asked.
"I just came down from Nanwu Mountain, and before I even got to the town, I felt like someone was following me... I thought it was an illusion, but it turned out not to be. He appeared at the edge of the town."
Zhao Xinghe said.
"After all, I am also a strong man who has reached the Great Perfection of Hua Jin. Even if he is a strong man of Xiantian level, I can't just sit there and wait for him to be captured. When I find an opportunity, I will escape into the town, hoping that I can shake him off, or that if there are too many people, he will give up."
“It shouldn’t be random.”
Xiao Chen muttered to himself.
"Random? What do you mean?"
Zhao Xinghe was puzzled.
"They may have been targeting Senior Zhao for a long time, but they only took action tonight..."
Xiao Chen explained.
"If they fail tonight, will they come looking for Senior Zhao again?"
Ning Kejun asked.
"Well, it's very likely."
Xiao Chen nodded.
Hearing what the two said, Zhao Xinghe's face changed. Will he come again?
"Senior Zhao, I have an unwelcome request."
Xiao Chen looked at Zhao Xinghe and said.
"Hmm? Su Xiaoyou, please go ahead."
Zhao Xinghe said hurriedly.
"Senior Zhao, I want you to be the bait to lure out the people from the Universe."
Xiao Chen said as he took out a small gadget from his pocket.
"This is a positioning alarm. If you are in danger, press the button and I will rush over as soon as possible..."
"Location alarm?"
Zhao Xinghe was surprised and took it.
For an ancient martial artist, especially an older senior... this thing is quite novel.
"right."
Xiao Chen nodded.
"Of course, if you want to leave Nanwu Mountain, forget it."
"No, I won't leave until I find the herbs... If I leave, my grandson will die."
Zhao Xinghe shook his head and said seriously.
"Besides, Su Xiaoyou saved my life, and I also want to do something for Su Xiaoyou... It would be good if I could help Su Xiaoyou."
Listening to Zhao Xinghe's words, Xiao Chen was quite moved. This old man loves his grandson very much.
Even if your life is in danger, continue to stay.
This is the blood relationship.
"Don't worry, Senior Zhao. I won't be too far away from you. Besides, we are here, and there are more than just the two of us... If you are in danger, we will get there in the shortest possible time."
Xiao Chen looked at Zhao Xinghe and said.
"Also... I know a thing or two about medicine. When this matter is over, if you can't find the herb, I can take a look for your grandson. Maybe I can cure his strange disease."
"oh?"
Zhao Xinghe's eyes lit up at first, but then dimmed again.
Even the Saint in White couldn't do anything about it. He just said that there was such a record in ancient medical books and asked him to find some herbs to try... What else could a young man who knew a thing or two about medicine do?
However, he would not refuse and nodded with a smile.
"Haha, then I would like to thank you, Mr. Su."
“…”
Xiao Chen was helpless because the old man didn't believe in his medical skills.
He didn't explain much and said he would talk about it after the matter was settled.
As for his true identity, he had no intention of revealing it for the time being. It was not because he did not trust Zhao Xinghe, but because there was no need to.
"Senior Zhao, remember, you must press the button immediately... I got news that there are at least three innate masters here from the 'universe'."
Xiao Chen warned.
"One died tonight, so there are at least two more..."
Zhao Xinghe's face changed slightly. There are two more innate ones?
Thinking of his grandson on the hospital bed, his expression became firm: "Okay!"
