Chapter 262: Night Talk

In the Council Hall, the candlelight flickered, casting shadows on Chen Yuan’s face, making his expression indiscernible.

The laugh from Pei Yanhu was not one of pure joy but a kind of release that had been restrained for a long time.

Chen Yuan stopped tapping his fingers, slowly lifted his head, and a curve formed at the corner of his mouth.

"Since the lord trusts me so much, then let me handle this matter."

The two Martial Vault warriors opposite him saw Chen Yuan’s expression and their eyes twitched slightly before they exchanged glances.

This Colonel’s expression is very dangerous!

Thinking about the rumors of the Nine Colonels and the divine powers he had witnessed, it seemed that the Worldly society was about to undergo a storm of blood and violence!

Yi Cangtian fell silent, not speaking.

Divine Priestess’s eyes showed some worry, after all, given the demons attacking now, if there was internal chaos too, it might accelerate the collapse of this already teetering Worldly society.

She wanted to speak but felt that some old folks in the Worldly society, who stayed out of worldly affairs, were too cautious in their actions. Remembering the words just spoken by the generals, she could only sigh.

At this moment, seeing that the Nine Colonels turned his gaze towards them, he then waved his hand and two Small White Jade Bottles flew out, "Both seniors just heard, I will set out at dawn tomorrow. We still need to rely on both of you at Chuanzhong Pass, this is a bottle of Clear Spirit Energy, which can help to quickly recover from injuries, please accept this as a gesture of my respect."

In fact, it was the Dragon Energy currently extracted by Chen Yuan that was contained in the small bottles.

The bottles flew in front of the two Martial Vault warriors, spinning around and around, with green light twinkling inside, making the bottles appear crystal clear and as beautiful as jade.

Threads of Essence Qi leaked out, refreshing the spirit of anyone who smelled it and bringing a sense of comfort to the whole body.

Yi Cangtian and Divine Priestess saw this, their eyes showing a flash of surprise.

Yi Cangtian paused for a long moment, then finally shook his head with a solemn face and said,

"The Sect Leader came here for matters of life and death, it is only right, Nine Colonel, please take it back."

However, Chen Yuan slightly raised his brows, leaned forward, smiled softly, and said: "Both seniors possess high principles, I understand, it is I who has a request, I just wish to form a good relationship with both seniors."

On hearing this, the Divine Priestess from the Su Nu Sword Sect smiled, accepted the bottle, sensed it briefly, and nodded. Then, turning her head, she said, "Old Yi, don’t be so rigid. The Nine Colonels wants to form a good bond with us, we should accept it joyfully."

Saying this, she tapped the Small White Jade Bottle and it turned into a white light spot, disappearing into her sleeves.

"Then thanks!" Yi Cangtian nodded his head and did not continue the conversation, waving his sleeve.

After all this was done, seeing that neither Chen Yuan nor Pei Yanhu continued to speak, the two Martial Vault warriors also got the hint, "Nine Colonel has come back from the battlefield and traveled a long way, you should rest early!"

Yi Cangtian finished speaking, bowed, and his figure flashed on the wooden carved chair, disappearing from sight.

Divine Priestess did the same.

Soon, under the candlelight in the hall, only two figures flickered.

Upon standing up, Pei Yanhu, after the two Martial Vault warriors left, looked around for a while then cast a True Qi Shield encapsulating himself and Chen Yuan, his face showing hesitation.

Chen Yuan, seeing him like this, opened his mouth,

"If you have something to say, just say it!"

Pei Yanhu opened his mouth, his face became very serious,

"Chen Yuan, was that Clear Spirit Energy you just gave related to... the Luck Spirit Root?"

Chen Yuan shifted his eyebrows at this.

As expected!

The news that he possessed the Luck Spirit Root had spread among many powerful figures in Jingguan City during the so-called "Incense Fire Projection" event.

Maintaining his composure, Chen Yuan replied indifferently, "It seems a lot of people know already."

Seeing his reaction, Pei Yanhu recounted the events of Jingguan City and said emphatically, "At first, I didn’t consider this aspect, but on that day many mysterious strong individuals rushed out of the city, at first, I thought these people were headed to the frontlines, but their figures did not appear there. Later, there was a rumor that your rapid breakthrough in Martial Vault was because of your possession of the Luck Spirit Root. Did those people go looking for you?"

Chen Yuan gave a cold snort, his voice chilling, "Yes, I killed them all!"

Hearing this, Pei Yanhu’s expression grew grim, his teeth gritted, "Those damned bastards, they deserved to die!"

His tone shifted slightly, carrying a hint of reproach, "That news wasn’t widespread, but couldn’t it have been discerned by those with intentions? Why did you give that thing to the two Martial Vault warriors just now, to avoid attracting unwarranted attention?"

Chen Yuan shook his head, "The news has already leaked, I’m prepared for it. As for earlier, it was intentional, to test the reaction of the two Martial Vault warriors."

"You!" Pei Yanhu was somewhat irate, unsure what to say.

Unsure whether to be angry at Chen Yuan for using such crucial items_swedish to test the true intentions of those two Human Clan Martial Vault warriors, or to be angry about Chen Yuan’s actions risking a potential escalation if the worst-case scenario occurred.

Chen Yuan’s eyes narrowed, "When I was weakest, I knew the wickedness of human hearts, those people hoped I wasn’t dead, but all wanted to kill me personally, lord, isn’t it ironic?"

"I just have to make myself a bit more ruthless. Otherwise, who will take care of these brothers under my command at such a critical moment?"

Chen Yuan spoke calmly, but Pei Yanhu heard the suppressed anger and murderous intent in his words.

Pei Yanhu fell silent, sighing, "I misspoke earlier, I apologize, you did the right thing."

"Now, in your current situation, I’m not sure if I should let you return to Jingguan City."

Chen Yuan stood up, his gaze sharp, "Go!"

"Why not go?"

Speaking, he turned his back, his gaze coldly looking out to the pitch-black night outside the hall,

"It’s about time to round up those guys to guard the city, if they don’t listen, then kill them."

"Then, quickly let our troops recuperate."

"These days, I’ve realized one thing, depending on others, only leads to a quicker death."

"Where is the Court, what are the Family Sects doing?"

"If the mountain you rely on collapses, then let yourself become the mountain!"

As he spoke these words, Chen Yuan suddenly turned his head, his eyes blazing with golden light.

Pei Yanhu’s eyes narrowed, feeling a sting in his eyes, his body almost involuntarily wanting to retreat from Chen Yuan’s sudden burst of overwhelming aura.

But he was supported by a hand.

Pei Yanhu blinked, at this moment he saw a certain majestic aura of a hero in this young Colonel, and he was momentarily dazzled.

His hand firmly slapped onto Chen Yuan’s palm, his eyes burning hot.

"Then go do it!"

"I’ve had enough of this as well!"

Following that, the two exchanged glances and laughed.

Their laughter was hearty!

.........

Soon after, the darkness receded, and the sky at the distant horizon showed a hint of dawn’s light.

Inside the crowded Chuanzhong Pass, the sound of horses neighing arose.

Followed by, thick layers of noisy sounds.

Inside a side hall of the Council Hall.

Chen Yuan sat at the head on a chair, beneath him was an old man with a goat beard, bowing his head in earnest listening.

"Mr. Gongsun, have you understood what I’ve instructed!"

"Understood, this old man will bear in mind the General’s matters," replied the goat-bearded old man, who was the storyteller Mr. Gongsun Yang.

"This Qi Fortune Golden Body you’ve collected is of great use to me, I’ve already communicated with the Commander, secretly stay here, do not let others know your identity, if there is danger, remember the Sixteen-character Mantra I told you."

"Yes!" Gongsun Yang grabbed the armrest.

Chen Yuan nodded, then glanced at the sky outside the window that was already turning pale.

"I should leave now!"

"You leave through the side door."

Gongsun Yang left.

Chen Yuan also got up at this moment, exiting through the main door of this side hall.

At this moment, outside the door, Pei Yanhu was already waiting.

And in the main road of the city within Chuanzhong Pass, the Ninth Mountain Troops had already mounted their horses, ready to proceed.

Only that this time, a few people were missing from the crowd, Qing Yangzi, the beautiful woman with the surname An, and the master and disciple of Enlightenment Mountain.

That master and disciple, Chen Yuan had specially met with them late last night, entrusting them with a task.

As for Qing Yangzi and the beautiful woman with the surname An, they were currently with the two Human Clan’s Martial Treasures, coming to bid farewell to Chen Yuan, prepared to follow their Sect Leader and stay here.

"It’s time to depart!"

At this moment, Pei Yanhu nodded towards Chen Yuan.

Chen Yuan hummed in affirmation,

"Depart!"

The Ninth Mountain Troops thus rumbled into action, returning to
