Chapter 264: Xuan She Leader?

Princess Yu Su took the Dragon Blood Pill, clutching it like a treasure, reluctant to let go.

After looking for a while, she confirmed the Dragon Blood Pill's potent effect; opening the lid and taking a sniff was enough. After checking, there was no problem, so she put it away quickly, as if fearing Chen Chuyang would regret it.

Jing Yuheng saw this, pressed their forehead, and thought the Eldest Princess before them didn't look like an Eldest Princess at all, but rather… a bit nervous.

Nervously cute.

The Eldest Princess, always famed for her composure, actually also has this side, which truly surprised her.

Perhaps this is the Eldest Princess's true side: she also feels fear, worry, and happiness; precisely, she also possesses humanity. Previously it was only a façade; in that royal family, those who do not disguise themselves often meet a terrible death.

If one does not wish to die, one must become indifferent, ruthless, and become a presence that others cannot provoke; only then can one stand firm in that place, and if you want to live well, you must have strength.

Strength is the most basic, also the guarantee.

The reason they came to recruit Chen Chuyang, even at great cost, is also for this reason.

In the ever‑changing Wangdu, this sealed world has already begun to stir; the death of the Fifth Heavy Mountain, the emergence of the Blood Demon, and the descent of Du Xuzi all attest that this world is about to stir again. The Great Qi Dynasty, which had been calm for a long time, finally begins to see turmoil, and a battle becomes inevitable.

Those Tianwai beings cannot simply let them develop peacefully, nor will they… keep giving them time to grow.

Their existence, their might, will affect those people.

Before the turmoil, everyone wants to develop their own power, so they can do more.

"Chen Chuyang Daoist friend, Longshe Cheng will become chaotic; this place is no longer safe."

"The beast side has shown movement, and Yin Gui Sect and many Factions will also… take action."

"According to the information we received, those people are watching this side."

"The dynasty's demon‑suppressing army also garrisons outside Longshe Cheng; besides guarding the restless beasts, they also guard Longshe Cheng itself."

"The new generation demon‑suppressing General has arrived; this person is quite formidable and may cause you trouble. The previous generation's General was his brother; this time he comes for revenge."

Jing Yuheng explained in detail, with no concealment of those messages.

Between them, it can be considered a cooperative relationship.

Even if she doesn't speak, Chen Chuyang can know these messages.

A little later is not as good as doing a favor to smooth their relationship.

"Yin Gui Sect also shows movement; the death of Holy Maiden Feng Feifei has prompted an ancient immortal Elder of Yin Gui Sect to emerge. This Elder is no ordinary one; he was in seclusion for over a hundred years, and this emergence is also due to Feng Feifei's death, and he also desires the Wild Dragon Snake corpse."

He paused for a moment.

Jing Yuheng continued: "This Elder is Feng Feifei's master; his strength is unfathomable, his body exudes ghostly qi, terrifying indeed. If you encounter him, you must be careful."

"Yin Gui Sect must not be underestimated; every Elder is formidable. Longshe Cheng has already become the core of nearby turmoil; once action is taken, Longshe Cheng will inevitably become a target of all arrows."

"You should still be careful; regarding the Chen Clan, you'd better make some arrangements in advance."

"Besides that, the beasts side will also keep an eye here; the Wild Dragon Snake corpse is too tempting, and those beasts wish to devour its bloodline for Advancement."

She knows the Wild Dragon Snake egg is with Chen Chuyang, so those beasts certainly won't stop.

If those Demon Kings come, it would be trouble.

Chen Chuyang is very strong; after all, two fists cannot match four arms. In a fight, he might not… be able to look after the Chen Clan.

The Chen Clan has no Strong One guarding it.

At most it's Chen Yuan, a novice consolidating pill cultivator, at the first level of Void Pill, unable to do anything.

In front of a true Strong One, he is not worth looking at.

The Shang Clan will also face threats.

Longshe Cheng is ultimately too weak.

"Why tell me these messages?"

Chen Chuyang said lightly, this woman is clearly clever, knowing how to use this to smooth relations.

Jing Yuheng said without hesitation: "We are now in a cooperative relationship; you must not have any mishap, and the Chen Clan must not have any incident; that would be best for us."

"Also, you must be careful of the Black Dragon Guard."

"Black Dragon Guard?"

Chen Chuyang asked, "Isn't the Black Dragon Guard Deputy Leader you?"

"That's correct, but I am only the Deputy Leader; above the Deputy Leader there are Leaders."

"There are as many as ten Leaders, all stronger than me; these Leaders appear and disappear like ghosts. If you encounter them, it wouldn't be surprising."

"Above the Leaders are two Deputy Hall Masters, and above them is the Hall Master."

The structure of the Black Dragon Guard is both extremely complex and extremely simple.

Strength is paramount; the Deputy Leader is strong, but those Leaders are even stronger.

As for the strength of the Deputy Hall Masters and the Hall Master, no one knows, but it surely isn't inferior.

Jing Yuheng has never seen them act; this is the true foundation of the Great Qi Dynasty.

The Black Dragon Guard, however, answers to the Emperor.

It is an important force of the Great Qi Dynasty that curtails those sects and families; she, for some reason, entered the Black Dragon Guard, worked hard for years, yet remains a Deputy Leader, unable to advance in strength or rank.

To sit in a Leader's position requires not only strength but also an appointment; a Leader wields great authority.

Being able to easily decide a family's fate—one command can wipe out an entire clan, which is a rather easy matter.

"Chen Chuyang Daoist friend, you must be careful; everyone must be careful."

"You possess the Wild Dragon Snake egg; they will certainly find a way to locate you."

Jing Yuheng reminded again, she knows those people's ambitions.

The existence of the Wild Dragon Snake egg is overly… enchanting; those people cannot resist the temptation.

"The key is to be careful of one person, my Leader, that is my superior, the Xuan She Leader."

"This person appears and disappears like a spirit, excels at ambushes, likes using poison, enjoys lurking in the dark to strike; you must be careful."

"It is rumored that anyone the Xuan She Leader fixes his eyes on dies, and anyone who sees him act also dies."

"This person will definitely keep an eye on you."

Xuan She Leader is her superior.

This person is very sinister; every time Jing Yuheng sees him, she can't help but be on guard.

Afraid of being ambushed by this person.

"Xuan She Leader? Is he very strong?"

Jing Yuheng shook her head: "I don't know; this person is very sinister, won't do anything unsure, and won't attack directly."

As the saying goes, not afraid of a strong enemy face-to-face, but fear the little poisonous snake in the dark.

That is the most terrifying existence; a little poison can knock you down.

Such a person has no morals; to achieve their goal, they use any means.

"I will pay attention."

"In short, you must be careful; if you encounter him, it's best to kill him."

At this moment, Jing Yuheng's killing intent erupted.

Killing intent, fierce.

"If you kill him, I will pay you a reward."

These words energized Chen Chuyang.

"No problem, as long as you provide the money, if he dares to appear, I dare to kill."

"Good."
