I come to see Bai Yujing today

Chapter 138: Meeting this young man is worth the trip

There was surprise in Xie You's eyes.

Next to him, Lu Haihui had his hands behind his back, not knowing what he was thinking.

Chu Xiubai's body was bleeding profusely. The knife that was struck with lightning and shone with starlight caused his wounds to burst and damaged his Yuanguan.

One night a long time ago, he had chased Yu Li Ke while injured, and had also met Chen Zhian.

Dozens of days had passed, and Chen Zhian still remembered the location where he was injured.

The sword energy came wherever the long sword went, and even with the protection of his spiritual treasure and the blocking of his true energy, there was still a stream of sword energy that fell on him.

If this ray of sword intent fell somewhere else, it would naturally be blocked by his strong innate body, but when it fell on the wound, it caused him excruciating pain and blood.

"Every word and sentence of Chen Zhian is full of calculations."

Xie You at the restaurant frowned, "I don't know when he entered the Xiantian realm, and his seven-fold sword intent is surging... But if we only talk about these foundations, he still can't defeat Chu Xiubai with one sword."

"He practiced a method to gather his true energy, and then he only said that he would strike with his sword. Chu Xiubai took the lead in fighting with Zheng Xuanze, showing off his magical powers, and even the straight-forward dragon sword was exposed.

Chen Zhian therefore drew his sword and fought, and actually defeated Chu Xiubai with one blow. "

When Xie You said this, there was finally some vigilance in his eyes.

"He was at the Unpolished Jade level before, and I didn't consider him as an opponent. I thought that the matter of holding the seal would never fall on him. But now it seems... this Chen Zhian is still a cultivation genius, and I have to be wary."

Lu Haihui put his hands behind his back and listened to Xie You speak.

He narrowed his eyes and shook his head, saying, "In any case, the position of holding the seal can only be held by children of aristocratic families. Whether it's Chen Zhian or Zheng Xuanze and Lu Zhujun, if they want to hold the seal, they must be removed as soon as possible."

"Genius? A dead genius doesn't count as a genius."

Lu Haihui whispered slowly.

Xie You originally wanted to bring up the assassination attempt by Qi Tianchong, but when he saw the murderous intent in Lu Haihui's eyes, he said nothing more.

Chu Xiubai spat out blood.

Lu Zhujun landed, and Wei Lingyu appeared in a restaurant.

She held a jade sword in her hand, and the long whip was still dancing wildly around her body.

At this moment, Wei Lingyu's eyes were full of murderous intent, but it was not directed at Zheng Xuanze or Lu Zhujun, but at Chen Zhian.

While she was not paying attention, Chen Zhian had actually grown to his current level. When he swung the sword just now, his innate true energy was actually surging in it!
How can one advance from the unpolished jade realm to the innate realm so quickly?
Wei Lingyu was puzzled, and finally seemed to have thought of something, and asked coldly: "Did you drink Prime Minister Song's tea?"

Chen Zhian did not answer.

Lu Zhujun walked slowly to Chen Zhian's side, looked at Wei Lingyu and laughed, "I have heard of the princess's name a long time ago, but it seems that the princess has lost this fight today."

Zheng Xuanze held the long sword and had time to catch his breath. The color on his face finally recovered a lot, and the same was true for the true energy in his body.

The falling rain wrapped around the sword in his hand, emitting a sharp light.

Wei Lingyu's expression remained unchanged.
Zheng Xuanze was seriously injured. Although Chen Zhian had extraordinary swordsmanship, he had just entered the innate realm. The sword he just struck had already revealed all his strength.

At this moment, Wei Lingyu obviously had murderous intentions, and his divine aura fell on Chen Zhian.

Lu Zhujun's expression changed slightly. Wei Lingyu was filled with murderous intent and seemed to want to kill Chen Zhian.

Chen Zhian still stood with his sword in hand, his right hand on the hilt, not knowing what he was thinking.

"Princess, do you want to kill me?" Chen Zhian smiled and raised his eyebrows to look at Lu Haihui in the restaurant.

There was also murderous intent in Lu Haihui's eyes.

This is a great opportunity for both Princess Yuxia and Lu Haihui.

The true energy in Wei Lingyu's body was floating, and the murderous intent in his eyes became more and more intense.

But just at this moment, the sound of horse hooves suddenly came from the long street not far away.

Everyone turned around and saw a man in his thirties riding a tall horse with the sound of horse hooves coming to the gate of the North City.

"General Fu." Lu Zhujun smiled and saluted the man on the horse from a distance.

Chen Zhian also recognized this person. This person was the examiner who compared swords on the sword stage during the court ceremony.

His name was Fu Youlin, and his grandfather was the great General Zhutian of the current dynasty.

Fu Youlin came on horseback, with a cold look in his eyes. He looked around, at Wei Lingyu and at the two people in the restaurant.

"Lu Haihui, you mixed with these juniors in the Xiantian realm and even had murderous intentions. How come... you wanted to kill people at the North City Gate?"

Fu Youlin licked his lips, as if he was expecting Lu Haihui to take action.

Lu Haihui's aura suddenly disappeared, and he walked down the restaurant with a wave of his sleeves.

Xie You smiled, saluted Fu Youlin from a distance, and went with Lu Haihui.

"Princess?" Fu Youlin, riding on his horse, bent down and saluted to Princess Yuxia who was standing on a high place.

But when he stood up, he said coldly, "No thanks."

The princess looked at Fu Youlin coldly until several breaths passed, and then the long whip floating in the air suddenly fell down and landed in her hand.

She sheathed her sword and left without saying a word.

Zheng Xuanze and Chen Zhian also saluted Fu Youlin.

Fu Youlin rode up on horseback, glanced at the others, then looked at Chen Zhian and asked, "Do you know I'm here?"

Chen Zhian shook his head: "General Fu's energy-collecting skills are quite extraordinary. If I hadn't seen the general coming, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to detect him even if he came within ten feet of me."

"You are really brave." Fu Youlin said with a smile, "Lu Haihui and Wei Lingyu had already wanted to kill you. If I hadn't shown up, they would have killed you.

Lu Haihui was ranked first among the younger generation on the Shangyuan Lu Family's Tiger Cub Monument. He was a real character, and his cultivation had reached the Jade Palace.

If he wants to kill you, what will you do?"

Chen Zhian answered calmly: "Lu Haihui is a Yuque monk. If he wants to kill me, I am afraid I will not have time to care about the two generals. I can only flee."

Zheng Xuanze and Lu Zhujun looked at each other and smiled.

Fu Youlin also had a smile on his face, but he said, "I'm afraid Lu Haihui wants to kill you. With your current level of cultivation, you will never be able to escape."

Chen Zhian just smiled and didn't answer.

He had known for a long time that Lu Haihui was in the restaurant, but he still drew his knife. It was not because he was reckless, not because he was risking his life, nor was it because he was betting that Lu Haihui and Xie You would not attack him.

But because he still has one.

The first-grade spiritual treasure Ye Yuezhou had already been tightly grasped in his hand, but as long as there was still a trace of vital energy flowing, he would not hesitate at all and control this spiritual treasure to leave.

Over the past few days, Chen Zhian has already memorized all the spiritual patterns in Ye Yuezhou and is extremely familiar with them.

Chen Zhian had already known about Ye Yuezhou's preciousness.

In addition, he has already entered the innate realm. If he uses all his strength, regardless of the loss of true essence and damage to his spiritual essence, Ye Yuezhou's flying speed is simply difficult to measure.

It shouldn't be difficult to escape from Lu Haihui's hands.

Zheng Xuanze and Lu Zhujun thought that Chen Zhian was acting out of justice and did not take it too seriously.

These two men in the army admired such people the most. So Zheng Xuanze bowed to Chen Zhian sincerely and said, "Zheng Xuanze thanks Brother Chen for this. I will repay you when I recover from my injury."

Lu Zhujun was more rough. He looked around and saw some scattered wine jars in the tavern. He picked up a few jars and handed them to everyone.

"I didn't expect that not all the people in Xuantianjing are wimps. There are some tough guys too. Brother Chen, come and have a drink!"

He first opened the wine seal and drank it in big gulps.

General Fu also dismounted, and the four of them simply sat in the tavern and drank.

The fight at the city gate was over, and many people returned. Seeing the mess, some wanted to cry loudly, but were afraid of the four drunken men and could only sob quietly.

Zheng Xuanze took a sip of wine, then took out a purse and patted Lu Zhujun, and Lu Zhujun did the same.

Chen Zhian looked at the two of them in surprise.

"Because we caused the trouble, we have to give an explanation to these people who are trying to make a living. Otherwise, we will inevitably be scolded by General Fu."

The two men put their wallets together, weighed them, and looked embarrassed.

"With such a small amount of money, I'm afraid I can't compensate many families."

Zheng Xuanze looked at the mess on the street and was worried.

Chen Zhian thought for a moment and suddenly asked, "How are the salaries of the two generals?"

Zheng Xuanze and Lu Zhujun looked at each other, Zheng Xuanze coughed and replied: "Most of the salary in the army is some elixirs, which are used as soon as they are received. The silver is not much. In half a year, it is only 150 taels of silver."

"Three hundred taels of silver a year... is considered a very high salary."

Chen Zhian nodded, but looked around the street and shook his head, saying, "So many shops have been damaged, a few hundred taels of silver is probably just a drop in the bucket."

Fu Youlin on the side was quite heroic. He patted his chest and said, "Since I'm here, why would I ask you to pay? I'll just come."

He was about to stand up, but Lu Zhujun looked at him suspiciously and said, "Where did General Fu get the money? The Fu family's assets over the years have all been used by the general to support the army. You have to support your family, so you may not have as much money as we do."

"I still have a few pills left, I'll just sell them." Fu Youlin said casually, "How much is silver worth? If I take out any of my pills, it would be easy to sell them for two or three thousand taels of silver."

"Selling pills?" Zheng Xuanze's eyes showed a bit of pity, but he was not polite. He nodded and said, "Then I'll trouble you, General. When we get the pills and salary, we will sell them for silver and return them to you, General."

"A general is a general, what's a little general?" Fu Youlin suddenly felt heroic and raised the wine jar and said, "Drink!"

The four of them drank, and the three generals talked about some past events on the border, with a hint of emotion in their eyes.

"Brother Chen, your sword intention is murderous, fierce and violent, but also very mysterious, I am afraid it is as high as the sixth or seventh level.

In addition, Brother Chen seems to be around 20 years old, but he has already entered the Xiantian realm. This really makes me curious, so I want to ask where Brother Chen came from?"

Lu Zhujun couldn't suppress her curiosity and asked.

Everyone looked at Chen Zhian, but saw that Chen Zhian looked towards the city gate from time to time, and no one knew what he was looking at.

"I was born in Sunan Prefecture. My father is a teacher. He only came to Xuantianjing four or five months ago."

Chen Zhian answered while looking around.

"You two, your father is a teacher?" Zheng Xuanze and Lu Zhujun looked at each other, then looked at Fu Youlin.

Fu Youlin nodded.

Zheng Xuanze's eyes were filled with more admiration, and he toasted Chen Zhian again.

Seeing that Chen Zhian was absent-minded and looked towards the city gate from time to time, Lu Zhujun asked, "Brother Chen, are you waiting for someone?"

Chen Zhian nodded: "I am indeed waiting for someone, waiting for someone who is destined to be with me."

"The destined one..." Several people really thought that Chen Zhian was waiting for someone, so they waited with him.

From time to time a carriage would come in, and Chen Zhian would stand up to take a good look, examining it carefully, but would always shake his head and sit down again.

"Brother Chen is a strange man." Lu Zhujun thought to himself, "What can we tell from the carriages coming and going?"

Fu Youlin also became curious and asked, "What kind of carriage are you looking for? I can see farther, so why don't I climb up the city wall and take a look for you?"

Chen Zhian nodded and said, "Okay, there are so many carriages coming and going that it's hard to see. General, why don't you show me a few and we'll just wait for the carriage to come."

Fu Youlin stood up and took a sip of wine: "You describe it, and I will go and see it myself."

Chen Zhian said, "There is no fixed one. General, just see if there is any carriage coming from the noble family in the capital."

"Huh? There's no fixed one?" Fu Youlin didn't react for a moment.

Just at this moment, a carriage slowly drove in from the city gate.

The main body of the carriage was made of ebony, which was hard and fine-grained, emitting a deep and warm glow in the dim sky.

The wheel is made of sandalwood, inlaid with a circle of silver metal sheets and covered with a layer of leather to reduce shock.

Even the door curtains of the carriage are made of extremely expensive Huai silk, making it look particularly luxurious.

That horse in particular was tall and strong, with its mane carefully combed and hanging neatly on both sides of its neck. It pulled the carriage forward, its muscles flexing and falling, as if filled with explosive power.

"what……"

Chen Zhian suddenly nodded and said, "I think this carriage is good."

He stood up, walked to the moving carriage and said a few words to the coachman.

The groom turned around and passed on the message, and after a few moments the curtain was suddenly lifted.

Among them, there was a man in luxurious clothes with a smile on his face, and he talked a lot with Chen Zhian.

Out of courtesy, the three generals did not go out to listen to Chen Zhian's conversation with the man in the wind, nor did they use their true energy, but continued to drink.

Until Chen Zhian came back, sat down, and suddenly said, "Okay."

Several people looked at each other, and Fu Youlin frowned and asked, "Are you drunk? What's wrong?"

Chen Zhian said, "Someone has compensated for the loss of this street. General Fu, you should keep the elixir for your cultivation."

Zheng Xuanze and Lu Zhujun became more and more confused and looked at Fu Youlin.

Fu Youlin looked Chen Zhian up and down, then suddenly remembered something and asked, "Did you sell paintings or poems?"

Chen Zhian showed a slight smile on his face: "I sold a painting. After all, I also had a share in the sale today."

He looked up at the sky. It was already late and the four of them had already had three rounds of drinks. Chen Zhian returned to the courtyard to practice and then said goodbye and left.

Zheng Xuanze and Lu Zhujun looked at Chen Zhian's back and hadn't reacted yet.

"What does selling paintings mean?" Zheng Xuanze asked Fu Youlin in a low voice.

Fu Youlin said, "This Chen Zhian has another name, Chen Sijia. He is a famous poet and painter in Xuantianjing. Many noble houses often offer three to five thousand taels of silver for a single painting."

"Three to five thousand taels of silver?" Lu Zhujun exclaimed in amazement.

As they watched Chen Zhian's figure go away, Zheng Xuanze suddenly sighed: "There is actually such a young man in Xuantianjing. It's not a wasted trip for me to meet him."
