Bang!
Zhao Ritian and Lu Wudi also flew out of the restaurant.
The battle in the air became more intense.
The veins on Zhao Cangqiong's forehead throbbed. No weapons were allowed in Sifang City. This was the rule...
Now, not only are they using knives and guns, they are also flying so high... Are they afraid that others won’t see them?
"Why did Gongsun Zhen and Lu Hongyun fight?"
"I don't know. It should be because of Chen Xiao. He didn't give up."
“…”
Ji Wuji and Huai Tianlei came with strange expressions.
"Two seniors, shall we go up and separate them?"
Zhao Cangqiong came up to the two of them and said.
"good."
The two men nodded. When a war breaks out like this, what rules can we still talk about?
The three men stepped forward and joined the battle circle.
Bang!
When Xiao Chen saw Zhao Cangqiong and the others coming, he used his sword to scare away the elder of Shanhai Tower and took a few steps back.
"stop!"
Zhao Cangqiong shouted coldly.
The elder of Shanhai Tower looked at Zhao Cangqiong and did not attack again.
Ji Wuji and Huai Tianlei also separated Lu Hongyun and Gongsun Zhen.
Gongsun Zhen looked at Lu Hongyun coldly, but his heart was very uneasy.
Just now... he didn't gain any advantage at all.
In fact, it was suppressed to some extent.
"Senior Gongsun, Lu Hongyun, what happened?"
Zhao Cangqiong came over and asked.
"grandfather……"
Zhao Yuanji wanted to say something.
"Just shut up...go away."
Zhao Cangqiong glared at him, and Zhao Yuanji walked away with his head lowered.
"What happened? Ha, you, the four forces, are relying on your authority in this city to bully us?"
Lu Hongyun sneered.
"???"
Zhao Cangqiong twitched the corner of his mouth. Is this serious?
Bullying?
Still waiting for me?
Isn't this provoking confrontation?
"Gongsun, what happened?"
Ji Wuji looked at Gongsun Zhen and asked.
“The old man came to find Chen Xiao, and he protected Chen Xiao.”
Gongsun Zhen said coldly.
"Come to see Chen Xiao?"
Although everyone had some guesses, they were still a little surprised to hear this.
What happened that made Gongsun Zhen so impatient to take action?
"Lu Hongyun, are you going to intervene in this matter?"
Zhao Cangqiong was also quite surprised. Based on his understanding of Lu Hongyun, this guy was definitely not someone who would meddle in other people's business.
Just because Chen Xiao helped Lu Wudi and had a meal together, Lu Hongyun wanted to get involved?
Even if he is an enemy of Gongsun Zhen or even Shanhailou?
"I didn't mean to interfere. I was hosting Chen Xiao for dinner, but this old man barged in and wanted to take Chen Xiao away."
Lu Hongyun glanced at Gongsun Zhen without giving him any face at all.
"If I let him take Chen Xiao away like this, how will outsiders see me? Will they say that I'm afraid of him?"
“…”
Zhao Cangqiong understood that it was a dispute over face.
However, I'm afraid it's not just a dispute over face.
Most likely, he was just looking for an excuse to cause trouble.
"Senior Gongsun, why are you looking for Chen Xiao?"
Zhao Cangqiong looked at Gongsun Zhen again and asked deliberately.
"I am looking for him for official business."
Gongsun Zhen glanced at Wu Qingming who was rushing over, then looked at Chen Xiao.
"Chen Xiao, I want to ask you, where did you go an hour ago?"
"An hour ago?"
Everyone was startled, and then frowned.
At that time, wasn’t it the time when Elder Qing Mo of Qingyun Tower got into trouble?
Could Qing Mo’s death have anything to do with Chen Xiao?
Otherwise, why would Gongsun Zhen ask this?
If it was Chen Xiao, let alone...it's really possible.
There is nothing else to say, Chen Xiao is very powerful...he has a high probability of killing Qing Mo.
Xiao Chen's heart also skipped a beat, but there was no sign of abnormality on his face.
"An hour ago? Oh, Senior Gongsun should be very familiar with my movements in Sifang City. Do you still need to ask me?"
Xiao Chen sneered, scenes flashing through his mind. He definitely shook off everyone who was staring at him.
So why did Gongsun Zhen doubt himself?
Yes, it's just a suspicion.
If there was evidence, then they wouldn't ask him where he went, but would just say that he killed Qing Mo!
Thinking of this, he was no longer afraid. There was no point in doubting.
What's more, he had conflicts with Gongsun Zhen, so he could absolutely insist that Gongsun Zhen framed him!
Hearing Xiao Chen's words, everyone nodded. Indeed, shouldn't Gongsun Zhen be very clear about Chen Xiao's movements?
"Humph, an hour ago, you got rid of my men and disappeared for a while."
Gongsun Zhen snorted coldly. Now that things have come to this, they have to bring things to the surface.
Otherwise, there is no explanation.
"It was during that time that Qing Mo was killed!"
"Oh, according to what you said, if I disappear for a day, all the deaths in Sifang City during that day will be attributed to me?"
Xiao Chen sneered even more.
"As for my disappearance, it only proves that the people you sent are idiots..."
"Not only did you disappear, but even your followers disappeared."
Gongsun Zhen pointed at Wang Pingbei.
"How did he get the wound on his neck? He was fine this morning."
Everyone's eyes fell on Wang Pingbei's neck, and it was indeed bandaged.
Wang Pingbei's face changed. There was indeed something wrong with his injury.
He shouldn't have come.
Not only think about it, even if he doesn't come, Gongsun Zhen will not let him go, and he might even find someone to capture him.
“This injury…”
Wang Pingbei wanted to explain.
"Beizi, you don't need to explain to him."
Xiao Chen shook his head and looked at Gongsun Zhen.
"How you got hurt is none of this old man's business."
Anyway, it has been made clear and everything has been said out in the open, so why should I give you any face?
Just like Lu Hongyun said, seeing that you are old, and calling you "senior", do you really think of yourself as someone important?
"you……"
Gongsun Zhen was furious and filled with murderous intent. He took a step forward and was about to take action.
"Senior Gongsun, please calm down. We need to find out what is going on."
Zhao Cangqiong stopped Gongsun Zhen and said slowly.
"There are so many people watching, we need to give an explanation."
"We only heard about Elder Qing Mo's death after we came to the restaurant... I disappeared, so I killed him? You can always find excuses to accuse someone of something."
Xiao Chen's voice became louder and louder.
"Is it really like what Senior Lu said, that this Sifang City is your territory and you can bully us at will?"
"Just because you disappear, just because you have the ability to do so."
Gongsun Zhen stared at Xiao Chen.
"Otherwise, why don't I find someone else?"
"Gongsun Zhen, you know what you are thinking. I believe that everyone is not stupid and should know it too."
Xiao Chen said, looking around.
"Aren't you just after the things I bought at the auction? Including the Star Stone and the Broken Sword... You're afraid of my strength, so you're making a fuss about Elder Qing Mo's death and trying to use it to deal with me."
Originally, many people had not thought about it in this regard, but after Xiao Chen's reminder, their eyes on Gongsun Zhen changed.
Don’t say that, this statement... makes sense!
"What? Gongsun Zhen is planning to attack Chen Xiao?"
"You just found out? I noticed it after the auction yesterday."
"That's right. The black-clothed swordsman who was looking for trouble with Chen Xiao was most likely a strong man from Shanhai Tower who wanted to test Chen Xiao's strength."
"Isn't it true that the highest bidder wins at an auction? Why are you still trying to rob people after they leave the house? Gongsun Zhen's eating habits are too ugly, aren't they?"
"Don't be naive. The essence of this world is plunder... But this time, the way they acted was really ugly. Not only Shanhailou, but several major forces were obviously involved. Otherwise, would they just stand by and watch?"
"shameless!"
"In order to take Chen Xiao's things, they are now framing him... I heard that the elder of Qingyun Tower died, and there were blood words next to him, which read 'The murderer, Shanhai Tower Shanhai Jun', and it was not Chen Xiao at all."
"Shanhai Jun should also be framed by the murderer, but it is even more impossible to say that it was Chen Xiao."
“…”
People around were talking about it.
Even Zhao Cangqiong and others felt that Gongsun Zhen was taking advantage of this incident.
Although Chen Xiao has the ability to kill Qing Mo, Chen Xiao is not the only one in Sifang City who has such ability.
It is too far-fetched to say that he is the murderer just because he escaped surveillance for a while.
"Gongsun Zhen, you have bullied me again and again, but see that my master is not here?"
Just when everyone was thinking about their own things, Xiao Chen shouted loudly, like a thunderous explosion.
"Even if my master is not here, I am not someone who can be bullied. If you have any ability, just show it openly and don't play those shady plots!"
“…”
Gongsun Zhen's old face was gloomy, and for a moment he didn't know how to refute.
He felt that he was a little impulsive in coming to Xiao Chen rashly.
The main reason was that he didn't expect Lu Hongyun to get involved.
He could still control Chen Xiao by himself.
Now... there's trouble.
"Senior Wu from Qingyun Tower, right?"
Xiao Chen looked at Wu Qingming again and bowed.
"I heard that the murderer left a bloody message, saying that the murderer was Shanhaijun? In your opinion, who is more suspicious, me or Shanhaijun?"
"That's naturally Shanhai-kun."
Wu Qingming would not miss this opportunity and said immediately.
"Before, didn't they also suspect Qing Yunzi from Qing Yun Tower?"
"I have no grudge against Elder Qing Mo, so why would I kill him?"
Xiao Chen said again.
"I don't even know who is Elder Qingmo."
"Um."
Wu Qingming thought about it and realized that Qing Mo and Chen Xiao really had no contact at all.
Killing people for no reason?
How is that possible.
As for the fact that he disappeared for a while, the person who was following him was too stupid, so can we blame him for disappearing?
"I've always heard that Elder Wu is a righteous man. I hope this matter can be thoroughly investigated and he can give us an explanation."
Wang Pingbei also spoke, bowing.
Hearing Wang Pingbei's words, Wu Qingming nodded: "I will find out the truth about this matter myself."
"Thank you, Elder Wu."
Wang Pingbei bowed again. He was not very familiar with Wu Qingming, but he understood him a little bit... This old guy liked to be flattered.
"City Lord Zhao, I suspect Chen Xiao is from the Holy Heaven Sect."
Gongsun Zhen looked at Zhao Cangqiong and threw a heavy bomb.
He no longer cared about the things and simply wanted to kill Xiao Chen.
The identity of 'Holy Heaven Sect' is undoubtedly the most suitable.
"Not only was Qing Mo's death caused by him, but even the incident at Shanhai Tower was caused by him!"
"Holy Heaven Sect..."
As soon as these three words came out, everyone's expression changed.
Xiao Chen's heart sank as well. This old guy was too cruel!
