In the afternoon, Xiao Chen received a call from Guan Duanshan.
"Boy, are you in trouble?"
As soon as the call was connected, Guan Duanshan asked directly.
"Haha, Lao Guan, have you also received the news?"
Xiao Chen listened to Guan Duanshan's words and said with a smile.
"Can you still laugh?"
"What if I cry in front of you?"
Xiao Chen lit a cigarette.
"Why, Lao Guan, are you planning to help me? But the trouble I'm in this time is a bit big. Even the country probably wouldn't intervene rashly! After all, this involves many great people in the ancient martial arts world!"
"You're right. Their strength makes even the country quite wary!"
After hearing what Xiao Chen said, Guan Duanshan admitted it.
"Boy, you are not someone who can be bullied. What are your plans?"
"Not yet, let's take it one step at a time."
Xiao Chen didn't say much. There were some things that he couldn't tell Guan Duanshan yet.
"Where's the Xuanyuan Sword?"
Guan Duanshan asked.
"Why, Lao Guan, you guys are not planning to take advantage of the situation and snatch the knife from me at this time?"
Xiao Chen blew out a smoke ring and asked.
"No, but I have a suggestion."
Guan Duanshan said slowly.
"Oh? Tell me about it."
Xiao Chen crossed his legs and looked at the knife on the table.
“You can temporarily hand over the Xuanyuan Sword to the country for safekeeping. The country can also spread the news that you donated the sword to the country! In this way, even if the people in the ancient martial arts world are unwilling, they will have to give it up!”
Guan Duanshan said in a deep voice.
"Lao Guan, are you really planning to take advantage of the situation?"
Xiao Chen raised his eyebrows and asked.
"No, I'm just keeping it temporarily."
Guan Duanshan said seriously.
"Old Guan, don't talk to me in an official tone. Who said this? You? Or No. 1? Or those people in the court?"
Xiao Chen put out his cigarette and sat up straight.
"Some people in the imperial court have been eyeing the Xuanyuan Sword. They believe that since the Xuanyuan Sword was unearthed from Xuanyuan Mountain, it is considered a national treasure..."
"Fuck, Lao Guan, I think you are used to robbing and plundering, and now you are targeting me?"
Xiao Chen's voice turned cold.
"If you find an antique somewhere and you claim it belongs to the country, just take it back! The Xuanyuan Sword was left by Emperor Xuanyuan to the right person, and the right person is not the country!"
"Boy, why are you so excited? If anyone dares to take advantage of you, I will be the first to oppose it!"
Guan Duanshan smiled bitterly.
"However, at this time, many people are worried that the Xuanyuan Sword may cause a bloodbath and disrupt the existing balance!"
"If I give you the knife, aren't you afraid that people like the Ghost Buddha Zhao Rulai, the Sword God Xue Chunqiu, and the Thunder God will rush over to take the knife?"
Xiao Chen asked coldly.
"I think they are capable of anything. It wouldn't be surprising if they really came to kill us!"
"I admit that they are powerful, but no matter how powerful they are, they are just one person! Don't they have their own descendants? Don't they have their own power?
As long as they are on the land of China, they dare not really be enemies of the country! Now is the era of hot weapons, even the era of nuclear weapons! "
Guan Duanshan said in a deep voice.
"Boy, no one can withstand nuclear weapons!"
Hearing Guan Duanshan's words, Xiao Chen frowned slightly.
Although he felt a little unhappy, he had to admit that what Guan Duanshan said was true!
In that war, people from the ancient martial arts world also contributed.
Otherwise, those people in the imperial court at that time would definitely find a way to destroy the ancient martial arts world!
It was precisely because of their contributions that there was peace at that time.
In recent years, the country has become stronger and stronger, and people in the ancient martial arts world have been checked and controlled!
Although not bound by worldly laws, one dare not go too far!
After all, in addition to hot weapons, the country also has a large number of ancient martial arts masters serving it!
"Boy, don't be resistant. After this period of time, the sword will definitely be returned to you! By then, no one will know that the Xuanyuan Sword is in your hand, and your troubles will be solved, right?"
Guan Duanshan advised.
In his opinion, Xiao Chen is good in every way except that he has a very stubborn temper!
You can only stroke along the fur, otherwise you will have to prick the fur.
"Lao Guan, I know you have good intentions, but I don't know if other people have good intentions as well!
I can also say that I will keep the knife for myself, and whoever dares to snatch it will be my enemy!
Since you are my enemy, I will not show mercy to you!
Also, help me tell those people who want my knife that no matter how high their positions are, they have only one life. If they really mess with me, I will risk my life to bring them down!"
Xiao Chen said coldly.
“…”
After hearing Xiao Chen's words, Guan Duanshan was silent for a few seconds.
"Lao Guan, let's do this for now! If it really doesn't work, I will send out a call for heroes and throw the Xuanyuan Sword into the sea in front of everyone! Anyone who wants it can go and salvage it from the sea, and whoever gets it will own it!"
Xiao Chen said with a sneer.
"Haha, you would rather die in glory than live in disgrace!"
Guan Duanshan smiled.
"That's almost right. If I can't get it, no one else can get it from me!"
Xiao Chen said seriously.
"Okay, I know what you mean, and I'll tell them too! If you need any help, you can call me!"
"Um."
"Then I'll hang up first."
Guan Duanshan finished speaking, hung up the phone, and looked around.
"You all heard it, didn't you? His attitude was very tough. He would rather die than live in disgrace! I told you not to think about the knife, but you didn't listen!"
“…”
There were about ten people sitting around, some were from the current court, and some were from the previous two generations!
The current number one, sitting in the middle.
There were two people sitting next to him!
Anyone who is Chinese can probably recognize them at a glance. They are the bosses of the previous generation and the generation before that!
"You are so arrogant! You dare to bring us down at the risk of your life? Ha!"
The boss of the previous generation who was wearing big glasses sneered.
"Are young people nowadays so arrogant?"
"I don't know if other young people are arrogant or not, but Xiao Chen is very arrogant, and he has the capital to be arrogant! I believe he can do what he says!"
Guan Duanshan glanced at him and spoke slowly.
"I think that the Xuanyuan Sword belongs to the country, so we must take it back from him! We can't just refuse to give it to him if he says so!"
A square-faced man with somewhat graying hair said in a deep voice.
"How about you go and get it back?"
Guan Duanshan retorted.
“…”
The man's face turned pale and blue, and he opened his mouth, but still didn't say anything.
"I also don't suggest taking the Xuanyuan Blade back from Xiao Chen! Apart from personal relationships, he is also a contributor to the country! I think everyone has seen what happened in the country, right? He has made great contributions to the country!"
The current number one spoke slowly.
After hearing what No. 1 said, the two generations looked at each other, with a gleam in their eyes.
"Some people want to use the Xuanyuan Sword to exchange for a chance to borrow a life from the heavens. This is not a good idea!"
Guan Duanshan said calmly without waiting for anyone else to speak.
Hearing Guan Duanshan's words, the boss of the previous generation's face changed. This matter was no longer a big secret in the circle!
It has even been circulated on the Internet before, but few people believed it and thought it was a rumor.
But people in the circle know that this person almost died back then, and it was all thanks to an old Taoist who helped him survive that day!
However, the borrowed life is about to run out, so this person is anxious!
Number One glanced at everyone and made a decision: "Let me make it clear that the country has no idea about the Xuanyuan Sword. As for whoever has an idea, they can go and get it... Whether you can get it back depends on your ability!
But I have to remind you that based on my understanding of Xiao Chen, he said, "I'm willing to sacrifice my life to bring anyone down." He is not just talking, he can really do it! So, before you take any measures, you have to think carefully!"
After hearing what No. 1 said, several of them frowned.
However, they didn't say anything more.
Although they are considered "predecessors", China today is controlled by the current number one!
Even they had to retreat a little.
"I support decision number one, and I would also like to remind you not to ignore the old man of the Han family!"
Guan Duanshan said lightly.
“…”
When the people present heard the name "Mr. Han", their expressions changed slightly, even those two.
"Okay, that's all for today."
Number One stood up.
"I have a meeting to attend."
After No. 1 left, Guan Duanshan sneered and left as well.
As soon as the two left, the rest of the people started discussing.
"How dare you, a mere kid, say such things!"
"That's right. If I had my old temper, I would have killed him!"
Just as a few people said this, Guanduanshan, who had left, suddenly came back.
"Oh, I have something else to tell you. Don't brag too quickly. That kid's grandfather is an old fortune teller! I think you are all familiar with old fortune tellers!"
After Guan Duanshan finished speaking, he put his hands behind his back and walked away.
“…”
There was silence in the room, and everyone's face looked a little ugly.
Old fortune teller?
Even those two felt a strong fear in their hearts!
"I...give up!"
The previous generation boss finished speaking slowly, then stood up and left.
"I...give up too."
Someone else finished speaking and left.
Soon, only people from the previous generation were left in the room.
They all looked towards their former boss, wanting to hear what he had to say.
The old man adjusted his big glasses and squinted his eyes.
"My time is running out! I will seize any opportunity that allows me to live a few more days!"
Hearing his words, the remaining people were shocked. Is he going to attack Xiao Chen?
"The old fortune teller is indeed as huge as a mountain... Unfortunately, he won't lend me a life against the will of heaven, and even told me that life and death are determined by fate! I have never believed in fate in my life, so I want to borrow a life against the will of heaven! I only want the knife, not the person!"
After the old man finished speaking, he slowly stood up and walked out with a staggering step.
The remaining few people looked at each other and made a decision.
