Chapter 22 This Is a Great Opportunity
Frankly speaking, is the Shen Chamber of Commerce willing to see reconciliation between Pei Xuanjing and the Liu family?
Nonsense, naturally I don’t want to.
If the Shen Chamber of Commerce is willing to see the two parties reconcile, then what is the purpose of everything they have done before? Is it to offend both parties and be a villain for nothing?
For this matter, the Shen Chamber of Commerce offered so many benefits for nothing to win over Pei Xuanjing. Is it just to see the two parties finally shake hands and make peace, saying hello to me and hello to everyone?
How is that possible?
If he just wanted to see the reconciliation between the two parties, he could just talk about it directly. Why did he bring up the matter of the Secret Land in a good manner? Wasn't it just to sow discord?
Although he never said a word, the implication behind his words was to tell Pei Xuanjing that if the Liu family really takes away the rare objects, then you will definitely not be easy.
Shen Xiang was not embarrassed when Pei Xuanjing revealed his purpose. He just cupped his hands and said, "Brother Pei is really wise."
Seeing Pei Xuanjing not answering, Shen Xiang continued: "Shen came today to discuss with Brother Pei and eliminate hidden dangers. We can prevent the Liu family from taking the rare objects in the secret blessed land."
He wanted to take action in the secret paradise and completely let the Liu family give up this idea.
Pei Xuanjing sneered: "Eliminate hidden dangers for me?"
Even though Pei Xuanjing stayed away from home all day long, according to some clues from the life simulator and some news he got from the city, he already knew almost all about the disputes and grievances between these families.
In the entire Anping Mansion, the government was originally the most powerful, followed by the Jin family, the Liu family, and the Shen Chamber of Commerce.
However, although the palace master holds the greatest power, he is still an official. As long as the government is stable and the years are long enough, he can naturally be promoted and leave.
Therefore, the interests of the government will not be lost, and government forces generally do not interfere too much. The three major forces of Jin, Liu, and Chen are the real leaders of Anping Mansion.
Originally, the three families stood on a tripod, and with the government suppressing them, it was quite stable. But just like the small town in the border county where Pei Xuanjing lived, the Liu family took a big step and began to think of dominating Anping Mansion.
In recent years, the Liu family has become more and more domineering, and the interests of the Jin family and the Shen Chamber of Commerce have been greatly harmed. Even the bandits that Shen Xiang encountered that time may have been the work of the Liu family.
Faced with the actions of the Liu family, the remaining two families would naturally not sit still and wait for death, and the appearance of Pei Xuanjing gave them a way to leverage their strength.
It was precisely because he understood this that Pei Xuanjing laughed at the other party.
As a businessman, Shen Xiang would not be angry when faced with Pei Xuanjing's sneer, but continued: "No matter what, the Liu family is our common enemy."
Pei Xuanjing looked grim: "So what? Are you going to start a full-scale war with the Liu family?"
Shen Xiang remained silent, this was simply impossible, not to mention that they did not have such determination, even the government would not allow such a big conflict to occur in Anping Mansion, not to mention that the Liu family had a backer.
Pei Xuanjing sneered: "So what if the Liu family is powerful? If you can't offend me, why can't you hide away?"
Shen Xiang's expression changed, "Brother Pei, don't be joking."
"Why should I joke?" Pei Xuanjing said.
Of course, this is not what he is thinking, but the Shen Chamber of Commerce is still timid until now. It has really done too much business and no longer has the courage to risk everything.
Shen Xiang continued to persuade.
Pei Xuanjing sneered: "If you want to cooperate, then you might as well do something to show me your sincerity."
Shen Xiang frowned: "Brother Pei, why did you say this?"
Murderous intent flashed in Pei Xuanjing's eyes, but quickly disappeared: "This peace talk is an opportunity."
He knew that the Liu family's peace talks this time were just a cover, and the real idea was to attack himself.
In this case, why doesn't he take advantage of this opportunity to do something?
Shen Xiang immediately understood Pei Xuanjing's thoughts and looked hesitant. After a while, he said: "This matter is of great importance. I need to discuss it with my eldest brother before I can make a decision."
Pei Xuanjing is not afraid that he will leak it out, "In this case, I will just wait for the good news."
Shen Xiang nodded and hurried away.
Pei Xuanjing sat alone in the hall, closing his eyes and thinking.
Originally, because the strange objects in the previous life simulations were helpful to him, he wanted to enter them. Now after hearing Shen Xiang's description, he wanted to seize the rare object even more.
No matter what, he didn't want to miss this secret paradise.
Because, not only can this improve one's own strength, but it may also provide clues about the immortals.
The martial arts training is divided into three realms and nine steps, externally refining the muscles, bones and skin, internally refining the viscera and marrow, and finally rebirth.
If the first two realms are about strengthening the body, then in the last realm, every step of improvement is undoubtedly a transformation of oneself. And after the last realm begins to be reborn, the life span of the warrior will also be extended, and the whole person will change. A sea change.
Many warriors in the upper three realms have even said that when they reach this realm, they can almost compare with the legendary immortal gods, and they are only one step away from the immortal gods.
With the life simulator in hand, Pei Xuanjing believed that as long as nothing unexpected happened, he would be able to enter the upper three realms. So why would he, with his ambitious goals, give up taking a step further and continue to search for clues to the immortal gods?
As for the Liu family's affairs, he has done everything he needs to do. It depends on whether the Jin family and the Shen Chamber of Commerce can make up their minds.
As he said just now, if the two families do not agree, he will not do it himself. However, he does not need to leave, but will decisively seek refuge with the Lord of the Mansion and use the Lord of the Mansion to protect himself. I believe that with his strength as a fifth-grade warrior, the Lord of the Mansion will not reject him.
Speaking of which, if this is the case, you need to leave a way out.
At night, Pei Xuanjing changed into a nightgown, quietly left his yard, and disappeared into the night.
Three days later, a manor on the outskirts of the city, this is a summer manor under the name of the Shen Chamber of Commerce, and it is also the meeting place agreed by the Liu family and Pei Xuanjing today.
Since the Shen Chamber of Commerce is the middleman, it is natural for them to provide the location.
In a guest room, Pei Xuanjing sat cross-legged on a futon, with the sword he had taken from Liu Ruilong that day lying on his knees, and closed his eyes to rest.
Shen Xiang, who was sitting on a chair next to him, also said nothing, but frowned, as if he was worried.
About an hour later, the guard knocked on the door and came in to tell the two.
"Third Master, the Liu family has arrived."
Hearing this, Pei Xuanjing opened his eyes and his gaze met Shen Xiang who was standing beside him.
