Chapter 1198: Unveiling a Corner

A large ship docked at a port.

A group of monks from the Little Snow Sect stood on the shore, led by Chen Ning.

The rescued fishermen boarded the boat one after another, and the number of them was even hundreds. These are the fishermen who have survived today. Counting the fishermen who have died here, I am afraid there will be more than a thousand people.

Chen Chao stood on the shore and stood quietly. The monks from the Little Snow Sect behind Chen Ning looked at Chen Chao with mixed emotions in their eyes.

These days, not to mention the entire south, but at least within the Qingsongguan area, things are making a big fuss. After Chen Chao's killing spree, the monks of the Little Snow Sect have long regarded him as a god.

You know, it would be fine if Fu Yun died in the hands of this young martial artist, but Master Aoki and even the famous master on the list died in the hands of this young martial artist. That would mean something different.

Being able to kill such a long-established strong man at such a young age is no joke.

If there is more time to allow this young martial artist to grow up, will the position of the strongest person on Immortal Island change hands in the future?

At this time, these monks of the Little Snow Sect even wanted Chen Chao to directly succeed the Little Snow Sect as the leader. With his leadership, the Little Snow Sect would definitely hope to become the number one sect in the south in the future.

Chen Ning came to Chen Chao's side and asked straight to the point: "After you go back, will you come back?"

In fact, she also wanted to visit overseas, but there was an iron law here. Although it may not work for everyone, it is self-evident to say that if a person like Chen Ning acts outside the rules, the consequences will be.

What's more, Xiaoxue Zong is actually in a period of change now, and she can't leave.

Chen Chao glanced at her and did not speak in a hurry. Instead, he said: "If you are killed here by me, it will attract the attention of big people. Without me, Xiaoxue Sect will not be able to continue to develop, even if it is to stabilize the current situation." It’s unlikely that the situation will happen, and it’s even possible that old accounts will be settled?”

This is a bit unpleasant to say, but it is actually the truth.

Chen Ning smiled bitterly and said: "Weak people are like this. It doesn't make sense, but it seems to be the truth."

Chen Chao can actually understand Chen Ning's current situation. Even though they only cooperated for a short time, Chen Chao also discovered that her temperament is not bad, at least not like those so-called big shots. sex.

"I will definitely come back, but next time I come, I will probably go directly across the south to the Guishan Mountain in the west."

After all, Chen Chao still couldn't bear to deceive this woman. After he spoke, he saw Chen Ning's eyes darken.

Without Chen Chao, the future of Xiaoxue Sect would be really confusing.

But there is nothing we can do about it.

Seeing that the fishermen had all boarded the boat, Chen Chao was about to board the boat and leave, but he took two steps, turned around, looked at Chen Ning, hesitated for a moment, and said: "You can guarantee that no matter what kind of situation Xiaoxue Sect gets, Will integrity and kindness always be the foundation of the establishment of the clan?"

Chen Ning was a little confused.

Chen Chao opened the sky and spoke frankly, "From the information I have received so far, the battle between the Western Region and the other three divisions is due to the difference in attitude toward overseas countries as you say."

If his uncle is in Fuyao Sect, then it means that the attitude of the other three sects towards Daliang is unfriendly.

"I cannot support a sect that may swing a sword at me in the future."

Chen Chao said it very bluntly. This was also his test for Chen Ning. He actually did not believe that all the three monks had the same attitude towards Daliang.

In fact, if these monks could be united, maybe things would be better solved.

Chen Ning hesitated for a moment, and his eyes gradually became firmer. Just when he was about to speak, Chen Chao suddenly shook his head and said, "Don't rush to express your position. Why don't you come with me and take a look?"

Chen Ning was startled and wanted to refuse, but then he thought, as long as he followed Chen Chao, wouldn't it mean that he would at least appear in Xiaoxue Sect when he came back.

So she quickly agreed, then came to the person's side and said calmly: "When I am not around, you will be the sect master. I only want to tell you two things. The first is not to bully the weak, and the second is not to do anything harmful to overseas countries." things.”

In terms of seniority, that man was still Chen Ning's uncle, but he never had any ambition to compete. He did not participate in this civil strife at all. Now that Chen Ning said this, he thought of something, "The sect leader must hold him back. There is no future for Xiaoxue Sect without him.”

"Although he has caused some trouble at the moment, there is no outstanding person in ancient times who has not caused trouble. He has unlimited potential. At such a young age, the sect master can actually become a Taoist couple with him..."

That person was very serious and even thought that Chen Ning and Chen Chao would become Taoist couples. This was the safest way, so that the Little Snow Sect could truly survive forever.

"Uncle Hu...what are you talking about?!"

Chen Ning's cheeks were slightly red, and he glared at his uncle, and said displeasedly: "Even if I have this intention, how can he like me?"

Such a young great monk must have his eyes set high above his head.

After hearing this, the man just smiled and said: "At least the sect master is very good-looking."

…

…

The ship set off and headed overseas.

Gradually disappeared from the sight of everyone on the shore.

Chen Chao was sitting on the deck, with nothing in front of him, just sitting like this.

Chen Ning looked at the sea for a while, but couldn't help but walked towards Chen Chao, and said worriedly: "That white fog seems to be difficult for ordinary people to get through."

This is the question she has been thinking about, but she didn't plan to follow Chen Chao back before, so she didn't ask. Now that it concerns her, she has to ask.

Chen Chao said: "I know."

Chen Ning looked at Chen Chao worriedly, "You haven't thought about how to solve it?"

According to her, Chen Chao's current cultivation level makes it easy to cross the white fog. Even if he takes one or two people, it is actually easy to cross, but this is not a matter of one or two people. This is a whole boat of people, with countless ordinary people.

"I will naturally deal with the white fog. You should think about other things."

Chen Chao glanced at Chen Ning. The white fog was not a difficult matter for him. The main thing was that he was afraid that the cultivators here would come out to disrupt the situation.

Chen Ning frowned slightly, "It shouldn't be. After all, no one wants to trouble you. If you have a murderous intention, it will be difficult for them to deal with it."

Hearing this, Chen Chao smiled, "How do you know that if someone really stops me from taking them back, I will really kill them?"

Chen Ning was a little helpless. This was not the first day they met. How could she not know what the temper of this guy opposite was?

In this matter, if anyone dares to come out to stop it, it will not only stop that person but also cause his death. Perhaps even the sect behind him will be wiped out.

"Do you know what is the thing I regret most in my life?"

Chen Chao suddenly spoke, then stood up and looked at the sea with deep eyes, "That year, I met a little girl, but I didn't send her to where she was going because I had other things to do. That's why they died in the hands of a cultivator."

Chen Chao sighed and said, "Many times, a difference in one thought can make people regret for life."

"In fact, don't keep thinking about it, and you didn't send her because you had your own things to do..."

Chen Ning felt Chen Chao's sadness and wanted to comfort him, but halfway through, he saw Chen Chao shaking his head.

"I was an official of the court at that time. With my salary, my duty was to protect their safety. And it's not that I couldn't send her off. I wasn't that anxious."

Chen Chao shook his head and took out the sachet from his arms. Since that day, he has been carrying this sachet with him.

Chen Ning changed the subject and asked, "Did you avenge her?"

As soon as this question was asked, Chen Ning wanted to slap himself. According to this guy's temper, if there was a living person in the sect where this guy belonged, he would be considered kind.

Chen Chao didn't answer. That was the first time he killed someone without scruples. At that time, Qingshui Mountain was much more tragic than the current Qixing Mountain.

That was the real purgatory.

"So later I secretly swore that I would do my best to protect those I want to protect, otherwise I would be sorry for the official uniform on my body."

Chen Chao was a little emotional. Killing people was never his original intention, but some people had to be killed.

Chen Ning asked with a smile: "There should be many officials like you over there, right?"

She didn't know if Chen Chao was right, but she knew that if someone was protected by him, he would be very happy, because that would definitely make people feel happy and safe.

Chen Chao stopped talking, because the white mist had appeared in front of him at this moment.

Chen Ning also became nervous.

Chen Chao remained silent, and some white mist began to emerge from his sleeves, slowly covering the big ship. However, although his white mist looked very similar to the white mist in front of him, it contained some golden threads and had a different aura.

He covered the big ship and came to the bow.

"Find a place to stay, don't leave the big ship."

After saying this, the cloud mud appeared on his waist. After slowly drawing the sword out of the sheath, the aura in the body of this young warrior began to collapse in an instant.

There was a faint sound of thunder above the sky.

If Chen Chao, who had reached this realm, really wanted to slash with all his strength, the terrifying power would be indescribable.

Chen Ning stared intently. Her realm was not high, and she didn't know if she would have the chance to reach this realm in this life, so she didn't want to miss these.

The next moment, a knife light appeared from the sea, directly split the sea water, and spread forward.

It seemed that no one and nothing in the world could block this knife.

When the white mist encountered this knife, it only lasted for a moment, and was completely cut by this knife, leaving a huge gap.

The big ship left along the gap, and the white mist slowly merged.

...

...

As soon as the big ship left the sea, a sword light appeared in the sky, and then a sword light like a mustard seed bloomed in an instant, and a sword slashed towards the big ship!

Chen Ning's face was extremely ugly. The breath in this sword light was extremely terrifying, and the sharpness made people feel cold. If it was somewhere else, she could still praise it, but why did that sword light come towards the big ship?

Chen Chao was not panicked at all. He slashed out a blade of light, which collided with the sword light. The two instantly burst out a very terrifying air wave, which blew up the surrounding sea surface!

On the sea surface, there were suddenly raging waves and surging winds and clouds.

Fortunately, this big ship was escorted by Chen Chao, otherwise it would have capsized at this moment and would no longer exist.

None of the fishermen on the boat thought of surviving.

A blue figure passed by in the air waves. It turned out to be a blue-shirted sword fairy who was wielding a sword. The green-shirted sword fairy came to the front of the ship, then jumped off the flying sword and landed on the bow of the ship. As soon as he landed, he shouted: "This turns out to be It was our Lord Guardian. I thought it was a traitor coming from overseas, and I almost killed the Lord Guardian with a sword. It was such a close call!"

A young swordsman spoke carelessly, but there was no hint of danger in his words.

Chen Chao was too lazy to pay attention to him. It would be fine if others said he couldn't recognize the light of his sword, but if Yu Da Sword Immortal said he couldn't recognize it, that would be nonsense.

It was obvious that this guy was trying his best to throw out a sword and wanted to defeat Chen Chao.

Yu Xiyi looked around the big ship and soon found Chen Ning. His expression changed and he whispered: "How dare you go out for a sex trip? How dare you bring a girl back? Are you not afraid of the one at home? Cut into pieces?”

Chen Chao frowned, took a step back, and then said seriously: "Sword Immortal Yu Da, I would like to trouble you not to imagine that everyone in the world is yourself. I, Chen Chao, the dignified envoy of Daliang, let alone marry a young man, I am ten or eight." Who dares to say anything? The women at home can only make arrangements honestly."

Yu Xiyi pretended to be surprised, "Chen, you can lie to your brothers, but don't fucking lie to yourself!"

Chen Chao sneered.

Yu Xiyi then turned to Chen Ning and said, "Let's talk about this girl, you have to think about it. In this world, there are many people who want to be the concubines of this Lord Guardian, but you have this I want to ask the guardian envoy if he has the courage."

Chen Ning blushed a little, but at least she was not a narrow-minded woman. In the end, she just smiled and said, "I'm afraid the guardian envoy doesn't like me."

At this moment, she finally knew what kind of official position Chen Chao held in front of her.

But is this guardian envoy a high official?

Chen Chao rolled his eyes and was too lazy to continue talking nonsense with Yu Xiyi. He just asked: "Did Yingzhou Mansion do what I wanted?"

Yu Xiyi nodded, "These days, fishermen have all registered. Fishing at sea is done offshore, and they are all registered. No one is missing."

Then Yu Xiyi looked at the cabin and asked, "You brought back all those fishermen who were kidnapped."

Chen Chao nodded, "There are still some corpses, all brought back."

Yu Xiyi was silent. After all, he was still dead.

"Let me go over and kill these idiots anytime!"

Yu Xiyi exhaled a breath of anger and was also very angry. In fact, he was not the only one, probably most of the monks who had gone to the Great Wall to fight against the monsters in the north would have the same idea as him.

You can turn a blind eye to some things when they have nothing to do with you, but once you are involved, they are no longer a thing.

"Go back to Yingzhou first."

Chen Chao didn't say much. In this situation, these fishermen should be sent back first.

Yu Xiyi nodded heavily.

…

…

The Yamen of Yingzhou Prefecture.

Chen Chao, Yu Xiyi, and Song Lian, who had been in Yingzhou these days, were sitting in the lobby.

Chen Ning said he wanted to go around Yingzhou City, but Chen Chao didn't stop him. He had no intention of letting Chen Ning know about something, and he had to be on guard against others.

Li Huaixian, who had been busy for a long time, finally came to the lobby and said with cupped hands: "Your Majesty the Guardian, all those fishermen have been sent home, and they have been told not to go to sea in the near future."

Chen Chao looked at Li Huaixian, the governor of Yingzhou, and after thinking for a moment, he said: "Each of these living fishermen should be given some money, and those who died overseas should be compensated. The government will pay for the bones to be buried, and the coffins will be dug. "

Li Qishi was a little hesitant. There was no precedent for this kind of thing.

"I will write a letter to the imperial court, and Yingzhou Prefecture will take out the money first. If there are any problems, I will bear the responsibility in the end."

After all, Chen Chaoan, a local parent official, had no precedent for such a thing.

Governor Li nodded and quickly left to take care of this matter.

As the governor, he devoted himself to serving the people. Naturally, he knew that the lives of these fishermen would be very sad if they lost their pillars of support. However, as long as the court's system was in place, he did not dare to do anything privately.

After Li Huaixian left, Yu Xiyi finally couldn't help but ask: "What is the situation over there?"

Chen Chao went overseas and returned safely, bringing back the fishermen. It seemed that overseas was not particularly dangerous, but Yu Xiyi did not think so.

Song Lian also looked at Chen Chao. Although this man did not speak, he also wanted to know what was going on overseas.

Chen Chao smiled bitterly and said, "Actually, I don't know much about it. I only know at the moment that the monks over there have different attitudes towards us, so there was civil strife and many people died."

Yu Xiyi looked confused.

"In other words, there must be some monks over there who want to do something to us, and it's definitely not a small matter, but there are other monks who don't agree with it, so they have been resisting."

Chen Chao said: "Your Majesty is also among them."

"So, what your Majesty has been doing since he came to the country is to resist those monks."

Although Chen Chao has not yet met the Emperor of Liang, the news he has now received is enough for him to deduce this conclusion.

Yu Xiyi was impatient. After hearing this, he stood up and said, "What are you waiting for? Call Ah Yue and let's go kill him!"

Chen Chao's face was expressionless. How can things be so simple? To deal with a monster clan, he has almost uncovered all the family background of the human race. To deal with those overseas monks, I'm afraid it cannot be done by two or three people.

Chen Chao pressed Yu Xiyi down, "I will definitely go again. This time, if you want to go with me, then you have to find someone to guard Yingzhou for you."

The situation overseas is complicated. No matter what, we must defend this side first.

Yu Xiyi scratched his head, "Are you asking me to ask the sect master again?"

In fact, there are not many people who can take on this task at the moment.

No matter how you look at it, only the master of the Sword Sect is more suitable.

"That's not difficult. Xiao An has done a lot of things in Jianzong now. Calling the sect leader out won't be a problem."

Yu Xiyi quickly figured out a way. He could only rely on his good apprentice for all this.

Chen Chao was noncommittal.

He now urgently wants to know what caused the monks over there to do something to them, and whether some of those monks were the gods he saw in Rongshan Sect.

"It would be a great pleasure to see His Majesty again and fight side by side with Him."

Yu Xiyi smiled and spoke, looking forward to the overseas trip.

Chen Chao looked at him and smiled.

…

…

After leaving Yingzhou, Chen Chao went to the sacred mountain.

Nowadays, there are no restrictions on the sacred mountain, and one can come and go freely. However, after the battle in the north, the goddess still did not choose to walk around and still lived here.

Chen Chao came to the lakeside. Before meeting the goddess, he saw Zhu Xia. She was sitting by the lakeside with a white deer beside her.

After seeing Chen Chao, Zhu Xia smiled happily. Her face was still very pale, and the previous consumption had not been fully recovered.

Chen Chao looked a little guilty.

Zhu Xia took out a bag of candied dates from nowhere, handed one to Chen Chao, and said with a smile, "Don't think so much, eat candied dates."

Chen Chao took it and put it in his mouth and smiled.

Zhu Xia smiled and said, "Come to see Sister Goddess. I'll call for you."

Chen Chao wanted to say that he came to see her, but he opened his mouth, but still couldn't say it. There are some things that he should take a step forward, but if he doesn't want to reach the end, then he shouldn't take this step.

Soon the goddess came to the lakeside, and Zhu Xia was watching the lake from a distance.

"It will probably be difficult for her to live happily in this life."

The goddess glanced at Zhu Xia, then at Chen Chao, "Did you see it?"

Chen Chao nodded. Although Zhu Xia was still smiling, it was indeed not as pure as before.

The goddess said calmly: "The word love is so tripping up people's hearts."

Chen Chao didn't know what to say.

"Tell me, I heard that you went overseas. What did you learn?"

The goddess also knows that this guy’s trip to the sacred mountain is definitely not in vain.

Chen Chao then talked about what he had seen overseas, and then asked: "According to my sister, are those gods and this group of people..."

After thinking for a while, the goddess shook her head and said: "It should not be a group of people. In the final analysis, the overseas monks are just the monks here. After all, they are still monks in this life, and the gods you see, Since it was the Rongshan Sect that destroyed that era, how could it be a monk of this generation?"

When Chen Chao heard what the goddess said, he felt a little enlightened.

But he frowned and said: "So, apart from the group of monks overseas, there are still a group of people?"

But where are those people?

The goddess looked at him, shook her head and said: "I don't know, but you have to understand that since those so-called gods can bring an era to an end, they are absolutely powerful, and you have also seen that the sky is full of gods. There are a lot of explanations.”

Chen Chao thought for a while, then suddenly shook his head firmly and said: "There are absolutely no gods. I think they must be some monks, but they must be very strong!"

"But since he is a monk, he is a human being. Can a human being really do something like slaughter all of his own kind?"

Chen Chao murmured to himself.

The goddess looked at Chen Chao and said, "You should have the answer a long time ago."
