Chapter 5160 City Lord's Mansion



"Remember, don't tell anyone about this, or you'll be dead... Those three guys have a great background. If they die, their elders will surely seek revenge. If they can't find us, they'll kill you to vent their anger!"

Wang Pingbei instructed the woman.

He didn't have good intentions. He didn't care whether the woman lived or died.

The key is, he and Xiao Chen must not be implicated!

If the people from Tianqing Sect find them and search the woman's soul, they will be exposed.

Although this is not their true appearance now, they will be attending the auction with this appearance next time, so it is better to avoid trouble if possible.

"I know, I know..."

The woman nodded repeatedly.

"Okay, stop scaring her and let her go."

Xiao Chen said.

"Go ahead."

"Kneel down to thank you for saving my life..."

The woman wanted to kneel but didn't. She squatted slightly and left in a hurry.

"Brother Chen, let's go too."

Wang Pingbei looked at Xiao Chen and said.

"We have to go back to the inn. The law enforcers will probably investigate... Even if they don't investigate, the people from the Tianqing Sect won't just let it go."

"Well, let's go back."

Xiao Chen nodded, and after the woman disappeared from his sight, he walked in another direction.

"Brother Chen, why did you kill them?"

On the way back to the inn, Wang Pingbei couldn't help but ask.

"They...should not be guilty of the crime punishable by death, right?"

"Isn't the crime punishable by death?"

Xiao Chen looked at Wang Pingbei.

"Do you think they will let that girl go?"

“Hmm…”

Wang Pingbei was silent for a few seconds and shook his head.

"The safest thing to do is to make her disappear from this world."

"Yeah, even that girl knows what she's going to face."

Xiao Chen nodded.

"What she just said was 'life-saving grace'."

"I don't know what their status is in Tianqing Sect. Judging from that guy's Immortal Foundation Establishment, he must be a genius in Tianqing Sect."

Wang Pingbei thought of something and said.

"Maybe he's the descendant of some big boss of Tianqing Sect."

"No matter what his origins are, I'll just kill him."

Xiao Chen did not regret what he had just done. If he encountered something, he had to take care of it in the mother world, and naturally he had to take care of it in the world beyond the heaven.

He had no hostility towards ordinary people in Tianwaitian, only sympathy.

“…”

Wang Pingbei smiled bitterly. Just wandering around could cause big trouble... How did this guy survive until now?

With this kind of temper, if he were released into Qingyun Tower, he would have been beaten to death dozens of times.

Soon, the two returned to the inn.

Wang Pingbei breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, nothing else happened.

"Don't be so nervous, it's just killing three foundation-building warriors."

Xiao Chen patted Wang Pingbei on the shoulder.

"Relax, get a good night's sleep, tomorrow will be another beautiful day."

"hehe……"

Wang Pingbei forced a smile, hoping so.

"By the way, this is for you."

Xiao Chen thought of something and took out the clothes he bought in Zangqi Pavilion and handed them to Wang Pingbei.

"Hmm? For me?"

Wang Pingbei was stunned for a moment.

"Yeah, why else would I buy two sets? One for each person."

Xiao Chen nodded.

"There is also a sound transmission stone. I'll give you one too. This way, when you go out, we can always contact each other."

"Brother Chen, I..."

Wang Pingbei looked at Xiao Chen with red eyes.

"what?"

Xiao Chen frowned.

"I...I'm so touched. You're so kind to me."

Wang Pingbei sniffed. This dress cost hundreds of high-quality spirit stones!

He has never worn such expensive clothes in his life!

"It's not necessary for just one piece of clothing, right?"

Xiao Chen was speechless.

"I've already said it, following me is definitely more enjoyable than being a prodigy in Qingyun Tower."

"Uh-huh."

Wang Pingbei nodded vigorously.

"Thank you, Brother Chen. I will definitely get along well with Brother Chen in the future. As long as Brother Chen says a word, I will go through mountains of swords and seas of fire without blinking an eye."

"Really? What if I let you go back to Qingyun Tower?"

Xiao Chen asked with a smile.

"ah?"

Wang Pingbei’s eyes widened.

"You just talked about mountains of swords and seas of fire, and you didn't even blink an eye. Are you trying to cheer me up?"

Xiao Chen frowned when he saw Wang Pingbei's reaction.

"No, no...Brother Chen, I may not die in the midst of fire and swords, but if I go back to Qingyun Tower, I will definitely die."

Wang Pingbei said with a bitter face.

"hehe."

Xiao Chen was amused by Wang Pingbei and lit a cigarette.

"Okay, take your clothes, pair up the sound transmission stone, and go back to your room."

"Pairing? What do you mean?"

Wang Pingbei didn't understand.

"It's to activate the array pattern so you and I can get in touch."

Xiao Chen shook his head. After all, they were from two different worlds and there was sometimes a generation gap between them.

"Oh, okay."

Wang Pingbei nodded.

A few minutes later, Wang Pingbei went next door with clothes and the sound stone.

Xiao Chen opened a box and looked at the sound transmission stone inside, wondering whether he should contact the person who refined the "Soul Storage Device" right away.

"It's getting late, let's go tomorrow."

Xiao Chen thought about it, closed the box again, and put it into the bone ring.

Then he took out the storage device. No matter how he looked at it, it looked like a trash can.

"Put my soul in the trash?"

Xiao Chen had a strange look on his face, and started to operate according to the "instructions".

He separated a portion of his spiritual power and poured it into the storage device.

It didn't overflow or disappear, it was truly stored inside.

He tried to take it back again and found that there was no damage at all and it fit perfectly.

“It really works.”

Xiao Chen became excited.

"However, this trash can is a bit small. How much spiritual power can it store? If it is too little, it will be useless."

After getting excited, he began to experiment, continuously putting his spiritual power into the storage device.

To his surprise, the capacity of the storage device was much larger than he had imagined.

"It doesn't look like it has a big capacity, can it hold so much?"

Xiao Chen was surprised. He sent out his spiritual sense and carefully felt the storage device.

Didn't notice anything abnormal, including the power of the soul.

Just like the power of the soul, it doesn't exist.

"No, it's not inside. It should be because the material is special and can store the power of the soul..."

Xiao Chen took the storage device and looked at it carefully.

Looks like a stone?

"Shit, could it be a soul stone?"

Xiao Chen thought about it and shook his head again.

It can't be a soul stone.

Soul stones are not big and are very precious.

If it was really made from such a big soul stone, then this thing would not be able to be sold for just one thousand high-grade spirit stones.

"Go on...see how much you can fit."

Xiao Chen muttered and closed his eyes.

The City Lord's Mansion was brightly lit.

On the ground, there were three bodies covered with white cloth.

A dozen people stood aside, each with a different look on their face.

"City Lord Zhao, the young master of my Tianqing sect died tragically in Sifang City. This matter must be explained!"

An old man, his face as gloomy as water, growled.

"I have already informed the headmaster that he will come out of retreat tomorrow and come to Sifang City!"

"Senior Chen, I will investigate this matter thoroughly..."

A square-faced man said slowly.

"I hope that the murderer can be found before the Sect Master arrives. In this way, both I and City Lord Zhao can give an explanation."

The old man looked at the square-faced man and said coldly.

"I will chop the murderer into pieces!"

Hearing the old man's words, the square-faced man frowned slightly and said, "Senior Chen, I am now the Lord of Sifang City. I don't need you to teach me how to do things, and I don't need to explain to Master Zhou of your Tianqing Sect!"

"That's right. Why should Sifang City give an explanation to anyone? If you come to Sifang City, you must abide by the rules of Sifang City. He didn't abide by the rules first, and ended up being killed. He can only blame himself for his lack of strength."

An old man with white hair and a mocking look.

"Even if your leader came, I would still dare to say this."

"you……"

The old man was furious.

"Old Sun, please stop talking. Someone is dead. Old Chen is also anxious..."

An old man tried to smooth things over.

"Everyone is here for the Longteng Auction this time. No one wants to see something like this happen."

"President Li, hasn't your Longteng Chamber of Commerce deployed some personnel in the past few days?"

Someone looked at a middle-aged man dressed in brocade and asked.

"Of course we have arranged it, but even if we arrange it, it's impossible for us to keep an eye on it in the city at night."

The middle-aged man said calmly.

"If he dies, don't blame it on the Longteng Chamber of Commerce. We are just organizing an auction and are not responsible for life safety."

"Li Xiunian, what did you say?"

Elder Chen of the Tianqing Sect became even angrier.

"Nothing, I welcome you to come and show your support, and I have also arranged some personnel to try to maintain order in Sifang City, but if something goes wrong, I can't blame the Longteng Chamber of Commerce."

The middle-aged man, Li Xiunian, the head of the Longteng Chamber of Commerce's Sifang City branch, said slowly.

"Even if your Tianqing sect is a powerful force, you can't be so overbearing, right?"

"Okay, everyone, stop arguing and find the murderer as soon as possible..."

The square-faced City Lord Zhao spoke.

"As for him breaking the rules, let's wait until we find the murderer."

"Oh."

Li Xiunian curled the corners of his mouth and revealed a sarcastic smile.

What else?

It's just the saying "Death is the greatest thing". Now that the person is dead, what else can we do?

However, he also knew that the death of the young master of the Tianqing faction in Sifang City had brought considerable pressure to several forces in Sifang City.

After all, the Tianqing faction is a powerful force, and this matter must be explained.

"Any news from your side?"

City Lord Zhao looked at another person and asked.

"not yet."

The man shook his head.

If Xiao Chen and Wang Pingbei were here, they would definitely be surprised, because this is the person in charge of Tianji Pavilion in Sifang City.

"This incident is very bad, we need to get to the bottom of it... I hope everyone can contribute."

City Lord Zhao looked around and said again.

Everyone either nodded, or had a blank expression, or laughed coldly.

Some people are hoping that the matter will get out of hand, because if that happens, the day when Broken Star Palace withdraws from the City Lord's Mansion may not be far away.

Although the period is five years, if there is any trouble, we will have to give up in advance.

There have been such examples before.

"It's getting late, let's go."

City Lord Zhao took in everyone's reactions and said in a deep voice.

"As for the body, store it in the City Lord's Mansion first... Also, find that woman as soon as possible. Maybe through her, we can find the murderer."

"By the way, let me remind you again, the murderer was able to kill them easily, which shows that he is very powerful..."
