Chapter 566: Chapter 404 Conclusion (Please Subscribe)_2

So after hearing Zhang Xuan’s thoughts, Shangguan Yu decided to still persuade Chen Yuan to endure for the time being.

“Brother Chen is really…” Zhang Xuan opened his mouth.

He acknowledged that Chen Yuan’s strength had increased rapidly, but the number of enemies he had offended was also growing, and each was stronger than the last, which was truly astonishing.

If the Gu Family, Qingyun Sword Sect, and Yun Family were to join forces, even his father might not be capable enough if they handle things cleanly without leaving behind any evidence.

Whether the court would truly be enraged over the death of Chen Yuan was still an unknown.

Chen Yuan’s gaze lingered on Zhang Xuan and Shangguan Yu, seeing through their thoughts. To be fair, the reason he used Shangguan Yu’s name…

was not to deliberately set him up but simply wanted an excuse to act.

After all, consecutively killing heirs of several major families really made people question his motives. Moreover, he did not place his hopes on the Shangguan Family.

For a powerful family, everything is measured by interests.

Chen Yuan’s current Reach Profound Cultivation was not yet sufficient to get them to help him settle matters.

And he did not need them to.

All he needed was just an excuse from his good brother Shangguan Yu to act.

“Knowing full well that I have enemies outside, I still decide to leave the city. Won’t the two of you think more deeply about it?” Chen Yuan’s lips curled up in a smile, which to Zhang Xuan and Shangguan Yu seemed quite mysterious.

Chen Yuan’s gaze turned chilly as he said in a deep voice:

“They want to make a move against me, and what a coincidence, I have been waiting for them too.”

“What exactly is Brother Chen’s contingency?”

Zhang Xuan frowned deeply.

He didn’t understand why Chen Yuan had undergone such a significant change, facing several top forces without a trace of fear in his eyes, but rather, he seemed eager to try!

He knew Chen Yuan the best, having discovered him in Ping’an County and brought him to serve in Nanling Prefecture. He was very aware that Chen Yuan had no significant background.

After all, if Chen Yuan had a deep background, how could he have remained in Ping’an County as a constable?

Could it be…

He was involved with other Jianghu forces?

Looking at Zhang Xuan and Shangguan Yu, Chen Yuan’s eyes flashed with an apology as he said in a low voice:

“As for the specifics of the plan, please do not ask further, my friends. The matter is of great importance—it’s not that I do not trust you both, but… I truly cannot reveal too much. You just need to know,

it won’t be easy for anyone to kill me.”

Without saying anything, no one could judge his seemingly arrogant words. As far as his current status and strength were considered, there were many who could kill him. Not to mention the distant threats,

just the power within Martial Emperor City alone was enough to easily suppress him.

Ye Xiangnan, the second most powerful in the world, how terrifying!

Even the court in the East Sea had to take Martial Emperor City into consideration, indicating just how formidable Ye Xiangnan’s might was.

Furthermore, although Shangguan Yu and Zhang Xuan could be considered good friends with Chen Yuan and he recognized them as friends, he could not reveal the affairs of the Taoist Divine Palace.

Even the matters of killing those from the Yun Family and Qingyun Sword Sect could not be disclosed.

Chen Yuan did not want to be labeled too heavily; he still had to go to the Capital and be valued by the Emperor, who generally gave the most consideration to those solitary officials without backgrounds.

Taking a deep breath, Zhang Xuan said:

“Brother Chen, we shouldn’t have to say these things between us, but I must still warn you not to get involved with the forces of the Demon Dao. Otherwise… if this ever comes to light, there will be no place for Brother Chen within the court.”

This was his heartfelt advice.

The Dao, Buddha, Sword, Confucian, as well as other fringe and heterodox sects, belonged to Jianghu forces, either at odds with the court or in cooperation, but only the Demon Dao has always been outright enemies with the court.

Blood State had essentially fallen completely into the hands of the Demon Dao, and the court had attempted several times to reclaim it, completely tearing their facade of civility.

A day of confrontation was inevitable.

Demonic Martial Artists are known for their ruthless actions, without any scruples, which is one of the reasons why they don’t cooperate with the court or avoid stepping on each other’s toes; they just want chaos to practice their Demon Techniques…

If Chen Yuan truly joined the Demon Dao, then perhaps they might be opponents in a future battle.

Therefore, he truly advised Chen Yuan not to mix with those forces. Chen Yuan clearly had a promising future in the court, with Jiang He, the Zhang Xi, and even the Emperor’s esteem.

If Chen Yuan continued to develop, he would surely become a high-ranking court official with boundless prospects.

Chen Yuan looked at Zhang Xuan with justified earnestness:

“Brother Zhang, rest assured, I have once said that I swear not to tolerate evil under the same sky, and I will always remember this in my heart.”

“I believe you, what I said was just casual remarks.”

Zhang Xuan smiled.

He had been moved to speak, also because Chen Yuan did not oppose the martial artists from the Demon Dao, and even got along well with Wei Wuya and received an invitation from one of the four great Demon Lords.

He just wanted to take precautions… As a court official, one always needs to have their own stance; otherwise, if someone were to file a complaint in the future, it would be very detrimental to Chen Yuan—even now, there were people who disapproved of him.

Saying that he was too ruthless in his actions, not resembling a court official but more like a demon king.

Luckily, Chen Yuan was from the Heavenly Patrol Bureau, where the style has always been fierce. Otherwise, no matter how significant his merits, it would probably not sit well with others.

While the court values strength, official positions are equally important.

The statuses of the court officials are not lower than that of the four Divine Envoys.
