Chapter 1081 The Most Powerful
"Senior Wu Min is at the back to guard against this guy's sneak attack!"
As Chen Yang and the others moved away from the ferocious beast, the big rat jumped down from Chen Yang's shoulder and blocked in front of the beast.
Although the ferocious beast looked puzzled, it did not attack Chen Yang and the others. Instead, it quietly watched the big rat.
Only after the entire team had moved a certain distance away from the ferocious beast did the big rat transmit its voice to Chen Yang, "Young master, don't worry about me!"
Chen Yang took a deep breath, turned his head, and looked deeply at the big rat.
Then, his gaze fixed on the strange ferocious beast.
After leaving the abandoned spirit脉, everyone saw a skeletal city on the horizon.
Many people in the team gasped, "Hiss! Yao Gu Cheng... I thought it was just a name, but I didn't expect it to be actually built with bones!"
Chen Yang explained, "Most of these bones are from ferocious beasts on the ancient battlefield. A small part... legend has it, is from the remains of warriors!"
As soon as Chen Yang said this, everyone's mood sank.
Even Wu Min and the other ancient martial artists had very grim expressions.
They had an inextricable connection with the current sects.
Among these warrior remains, there were likely their descendants.
Even though he had experienced a lot, facing such a situation, Wu Min's mood was extremely volatile.
Chen Yang said word by word, "Sooner or later, this Yao Gu Cheng will be demolished!"
Back then, when the Sword Sect was stationed here, their greatest enemy was Yao Gu Cheng. Where the remains of the warriors who could not be recovered went was naturally self-evident.
Just as Chen Yang and the others arrived at Yao Gu Cheng, they could not find any trace of Cang Jian and Dao Zhi.
"This shouldn't be the case? We've wasted some time on the way, and logically, those two should have made preparations!"
No one suspected that Cang Jian and Dao Zhi would escape. Having such a thought would be an insult to them!
"Since you're here, go in first, and we'll investigate after entering Yao Gu Cheng!"
The guards of Yao Gu Cheng had already discovered Chen Yang's team.
But they did not come forward to question them.
Generally, for such a large team, the guards would question them, either to extort some benefits or to deliberately make things difficult.
This was Yao Gu Cheng, their territory, and it was a form of pressure.
However, facing Chen Yang's team, the guards not only did not question them but greeted them with smiles.
From the people who had returned earlier, the guards already knew that a mysterious young master would come to Yao Gu Cheng shortly.
His background was such that even their city lord could not afford to offend him.
If one person said this kind of news, it might be gossip, but if everyone who returned said the same thing...
Even if it was false, they would not dare to expose it rashly. The cost of staking their lives was too high.
Even if the city lord were here, he would not offend a mysterious young master for these people.
"Presumably, you are Young Master Chen?"
"We are the guards of the City Lord's Mansion. The City Lord is currently not in Yao Gu Cheng, so I will take you to a separate courtyard of the City Lord's Mansion to rest. When the City Lord returns, he will personally receive Young Master Chen."
This guard was intelligent. On one hand, the city lord was absent, so he couldn't directly take people to live in the City Lord's Mansion. On the other hand, he also gave a reason.
Being able to enter a separate courtyard was already a great honor.
Chen Yang waved his hand, threw out a pill, and said generously, "You're quite discerning, kid."
"However, I won't go to the separate courtyard. Knowing that your City Lord is not here, my father said that one should not trouble others unnecessarily when traveling."
"It would be inconvenient to entertain so many of my men, which would require considerable effort."
"However, if you are willing, have someone take us to the best restaurant here."
The guard was extremely excited to receive a pill. The task of leading the way was naturally his.
However, on the way to the restaurant, the guard also noticed some things.
Although this mysterious young master was generous and never looked down on them, he always gave off a feeling of not getting too close.
Along the way, the entire team was silent. If he encountered such a team outside Yao Gu Cheng, he would have to stay away.
He constantly felt like a sleeping fierce beast was following him, ready to devour him at any moment.
After arriving at the restaurant, he immediately made arrangements with the innkeeper.
"Young Master Chen, everything is arranged. If you need anything later, you can directly send someone to the city gate to find me. My name is Ba Muge."
Ba Muge did not ask for any more benefits. He was already satisfied with one pill.
As for staying by Chen Yang's side, Ba Muge did not dare.
There were many people among the young master's guards who were stronger than him.
He was already very satisfied to be able to have a conversation.
Chen Yang noted the name and nodded slowly, saying no more, and led his men upstairs.
Chen Yang's team attracted a lot of attention within Yao Gu Cheng.
Not long after the food was served at the restaurant, Chen Yang saw two familiar faces.
One was Aanda, the president of the Si'an Chamber of Commerce, and the other was the Black Bone True Man, who was at odds with him.
Aanda waved his hand and said to the shopkeeper, "Bring the best wine. It's all on Si'an Chamber of Commerce's tab."
The Black Bone True Man's mouth twitched upon hearing this. He was not as generous as Aanda. After all, this was the best restaurant in Yao Gu Cheng, and he rarely came here.
Let alone treating Chen Yang and so many people, but thinking about how he had wanted to host Young Master Chen before, it turned out to be a considerable saving.
Chen Yang hospitably invited both of them over.
The three sat at the table, and the Black Bone True Man and Aanda exchanged pleasantries.
Seeing that Chen Yang did not respond but was smiling at the two of them.
Both of them understood that this Young Master Chen was probably not so easily deceived...
"If you two have anything to say, just say it directly."
As soon as Chen Yang finished speaking, Aanda chuckled, "Actually, it's nothing much. We mainly want to do business with Young Master Chen. Si'an Chamber of Commerce is the most powerful businessman in Yao Gu Cheng."
"If you can hand over the treasure you obtained earlier to us to handle, or sell it directly to us, we will definitely not let Young Master Chen down!"
Before Chen Yang could reply, the Black Bone True Man on the side immediately sneered, "Stop boasting here. Your Si'an Chamber of Commerce has always been about deception and fraud."
"If Young Master Chen Yang wants to sell that item, you can leave it to me to handle. Because of its excellent location, Yao Gu Cheng has branches of several famous chambers of commerce in the region. I will help you connect with them!"
