Chapter 653 Acquire Profit in Others’ Trouble

Noticing Chu Xun’s strong killing intent, Wang Qian felt a chill in his heart. He still remembered Chu Xun was known as the Killing God. Wang Qian hurriedly said, “Please don’t be angry, Mr. Liu. I didn’t mean that you attacked Ma Youchong and his followers. The situation is tense now. The people of the Ma Family asked us for an explanation. Do you have any good ideas?”

Chu Xun narrowed his eyes slightly and said, “I have an idea, but it depends on whether you dare to do it or not.”

“What is it?”

“If you slaughter the Ma Family, all the problems will disappear.”

Wang Qian’s heart skipped a beat. What a terrifying killing intent! He was worthy of his title, the Killing God.

“Mr. Liu, are you kidding me? The Ma Family is the ruler of the Eastern Region! Who can easily slaughter them?”

“Your Canyang Guild isn’t weaker than the Ma Family, right? Haven’t you already made your preparations yet? Otherwise, how dare you deal with Ma Youchong?”

Wang Qian hurriedly waved his hand. “Mr. Liu, please don’t say those words. How could we ambush Ma Youchong?”

“Other than your Canyang Guild, who else dares to provoke the Ma Family? I haven’t seen Ma Youchong before. Since he dared to come to your guild to buy the Seven Luminaries Celestial Milk, I think his cultivation is naturally not bad. He must be beyond the Gold Immortal Realm. Other than your people, who else can achieve such a cultivation level?”

Wang Qian smiled bitterly. “You have mentioned what worries us the most. The Ma Family thinks the same as you.”

Chu Xun lowered his voice and asked, “Do you really have no connection with the robbery?”

Wang Qian nodded solemnly.

“If we had done it, we would have admitted it, but it has nothing to do with us. Why did we sell Seven Luminaries Celestial Milk to Ma Youchong and send someone to take it back? Do you think we liked to invite trouble ourselves?”

“Could it be that some other force did it and deliberately framed your Canyang Guild so that they could reap the benefits?” Chu Xun asked.

Wang Qian nodded. “It’s possible. But the Ma Family is pressing us so hard that we don’t even have the time to investigate.”

Chu Xun patted him on the shoulder and said playfully, “Then you have to take the blame, whether you like it or not.”

Wang Qian looked uncomfortable. Chu Xun was right. They had to take the blame. The most annoying thing was that they didn’t know who had done the robbery.

“Brother Wang, your Canyang Guild and the Ma Family are both famous forces in the Immortal Domain. Please don’t fight against the Ma Family. If you fight against each other, you will bring disaster to ordinary people. Please gather the materials that I need as soon as possible. I will pay you enough money you want. If you can find some of them, I am willing to help you get them,” Chu Xun said seriously.

Wang Qian’s expression did not change, but he was secretly delighted. He also wanted to draw Chu Xun over to their side.

After that, the two chatted for a while.

Chu Xun saw Wang Qian off and raised the corners of his mouth in a strange arc. He wanted to drive a wedge between the two sides so that he could acquire profit in their trouble. The Golden Phoenix Meat must have arrived at the Canyang Guild, and Wang Qian’s words were an excuse.

If Long Wenli and the others were smart, the next day they would send someone to tell him that the Golden Phoenix Meat had arrived. Then they would win Chu Xun’s friendship. If they had other ideas, Chu Xun would rob them and acquire profit in their trouble.

Chu Xun stayed in the inn until the evening of the next day. No one of the Canyang Guild had come.

“It seems that the trouble they are in is not big enough. The two parties should fight fiercely. It seems that I have to add more fuel to the fire,” Chu Xun murmured in a low voice.

On the third day, Chu Xun went for a stroll and did nothing.

In fact, he had gained a lot today and had got a lot of useful information.

The name of Hundred-Meter City was derived from its terrain. The terrain of this city was very high. Its name was an exaggerative expression.

The Hundred-Meter City was the closest city to the Forest of Misfortune, and the distance was thousands of kilometers.

Night fell, and the lanterns in Hundred-Meter City lit up.

In the main hall of the City Lord’s Mansion of Hundred-Meter City, the atmosphere was solemn. The two rows of chairs on the east and west sides were full of people, and the atmosphere was thick with tension.

Cold sweat dripped down the City Lord Yang Han’s forehead as he stood to the side with his head lowered. Sometimes, he would sneak a glance at the people from both sides out of the corners of his eyes.

The Ma Family was on one side, and the Canyang Guild was on the other side. They were both famous big forces in the eastern region. The City Lord dared not to offend them. He prayed in his heart that the two sides would not start fighting. He didn’t want to be dragged into the turmoil.

“Canyang Guild, we have never interfered with each other’s matters all these years. Why did you ambush and kill my Ma Family’s disciples? You should give us an explanation today.” The one who spoke was an elder from the Ma Family. He sat there boldly, and his tall and sturdy body emanated a terrifying aura.

“Brother Ma, I have told you that we didn’t do what you said. We can’t give you any explanation.” The one who spoke was the Sixth Presbyter of the Canyang Guild, Ke Shanming. He was at the intermediate stage of the Gold Immortal Realm. He was in charge of this matter.

“Are you sure?” The elder surnamed Ma sneered, “Who else in this region dare to attack the people of our Ma Family other than you?”

“Brother Ma, don’t be too confident. Don’t look down on the heroes of the world. The Forest of Misfortune is filled with frightening experts. Maybe terrifying experts hide within it,” Ke Shanming said.

“Hehe... If what you said were true, your Canyang Guild wouldn’t have been indifferent. You would have already drawn them over to your side.”

“But there are some people who aren’t that easy to draw over. The recently famous Killing God, Liu Tianhe, is an example,” Ke Shanming said.

“Killing God, Liu Tianhe?” The elder surnamed Ma frowned. “No wonder we haven’t heard from him recently. It turned out that he went to your Forest of Misfortune.”

“Brother Ma, I want to tell you one thing.”

“What is it?”

“Ma Youchong bought a bottle of Seven Luminaries Celestial Milk from my Canyang Guild.”

“I know about that.”

“No, I’m afraid you don’t know enough yet.” Ke Shanming’s eyes flashed with a strange light. “The Killing God, Liu Tianhe, came to my Canyang Guild to purchase a few materials. One of them is the Seven Luminaries Celestial Milk.”

The elder’s eyes flashed. “What do you mean?”

“Actually, if Liu Tianhe had come earlier that day, the Seven Luminaries Celestial Milk would’ve been his. Unfortunately, Ma Youchong was one step ahead of him, so he had to return with nothing.”

The elder asked, “You mean...”

“This is just my guess,” Ke Shanming said.

“Haven’t you confirmed it yet?” The elder said.

“This matter is related to you. How dare we neglect it? We immediately came to the Killing God and asked him. However, we displeased the Killing God. We did not get anything out of him,” Ke Shanming said with an ashamed expression.

The elder coldly snorted. “Could it be that your Canyang Guild is afraid of this so-called Killing God?”

“We are not afraid of the Killing God but don’t want to make trouble.” Ke Shanming looked at the elder and said, “You only want an explanation. That’s all we can find. If you are not satisfied with it, I can do nothing more.”

“Ke Shanming, are you trying to shuffle your responsibilities to us?” A cold light flashed in the elder’s eyes.

Ke Shanming sneered, “Ma Shijie, don’t put on an act here. The robbery occurred in our territory, so I helped you find the robber. Don’t think that our Canyang Guild is afraid of your Ma Family. We’ve already done what we should do. You should deal with the rest yourself.”

“Ke Shanming, is this your attitude?” Ma Shijie’s aura surged, frightening.

With Ma Shijie moving, the other people of the Ma Family glared at the other party.

Ke Shanming sneered, and his aura soared to the point that he was on equal footing with Ma Shijie. Invisible energy shot through the air.

The tables and chairs in the hall were suspended in the air. With cracking sounds, cracks spread on the teapots and cups and finally exploded one after another.

At this moment, everyone was tense as if they were prepared to hunt like beasts. If the two leaders gave the order, a bloody battle was inevitable.

Unexpectedly, the two suddenly snorted, and the violent auras around them receded like tides. The tables and chairs floating in the air fell to the ground and broke into pieces.

Ma Shijie and Ke Shanming were not fools. If they fought, the Ma Family and the Canyang Guild would completely fall out with each other. Both of them were not sure if they could win, so they didn’t fight.

“Ke Shanming, my Ma Family’s disciples died in your territory. You can’t absolve yourselves of the blame for this matter. I will definitely investigate the matter until the truth comes to light. If you are involved in the matter, we’ll start a war with you with all our strength.” Ma Shijie’s face was cold as he solemnly stated.

Ke Shanming laughed coldly. Although in the Gold Immortal Realm, Ma Youchong was only injured and not dead. The Ma Family won’t start a war over such a trivial matter.

Ma Shijie sneered at Ke Shanming’s expression. “Ke Shanming, do you think I’m joking? If you knew who Ma Youchong is, you wouldn’t have such a thought.”

Ke Shanming frowned. Could it be that Ma Youchong had another identity? They had detailed information of the experts beyond the Earth Immortal Realm of the Ma Family. However, they did not find out about Ma Youchong’s other identity.

“Ma Youchong is one of the descendants of my Ma Family’s First Presbyter,” Ma Shijie said.

Ke Shanming’s expression changed slightly. The reason why the Ma Family was so powerful was that they had existed for generations. They were all surnamed Ma, and they cared deeply about their bloodline. Everyone viewed the Ma Family as their glory and fought for the Ma Family.

On the contrary, the Canyang Guild was a rising star. Although it was equal in force with the Ma Family, it didn’t have the same bloodline. Their surnames were different, and they were developed by absorbing warriors and experts from the outside world. They didn’t have a cohesive force like the Ma Family.

Since the Ma Family had the same surname, when the Canyang Guild investigated, they only paid attention to Ma Youchong’s cultivation but didn’t pay much attention to their blood relationship. They didn’t know the relationship between Ma Youchong and the First Presbyter of the Ma Family.

It seemed that it was difficult to deal with this matter. Since Ma Shijie dared to say such words, he must have been instigated by the First Presbyter of the Ma Family.

He should report this matter to the higher-ups. With this thought, he did not show his worries on his face. He sneered and said, “You can investigate yourselves. If it has something to do with our Canyang Guild, you can start a war over us.”

As soon as he finished speaking, Ke Shanming waved his hand and left with the members of the Canyang Guild.

Ma Shijie’s eyes were gloomy, and his face darkened.

“Let’s go as well. Tomorrow, let’s head to the Forest of Misfortune to get to the bottom of this matter. Anyone who harmed the members of the Ma Family must die.”

Ma Shijie took his group of people out of the City Lord’s Mansion and walked to the inn that they lived in.

Dark clouds covered the moon. It was dark now.

Ma Shijie suddenly felt uneasy and became alert. In fact, he didn’t know what he was on guard against.

All of a sudden, they stopped abruptly.

A figure stood quietly in the middle of the road, blocking their way.

“Who are you?” One of the disciples of the Ma Family shouted.

“It’s a dark and windy night. It is suitable to kill people now. Ma Shijie, leave your life here.” A faint voice drifted with the wind, making people feel cold all over.
