Chapter 3590: The Outside World

Death River's sudden visit made Chu Yang realize that the other party's situation might be more difficult than he imagined. In addition, the Evergreen Tree might not be as kind as he imagined.

Although Chu Yang would not benefit from the win-win cooperation with Eternal Evergreen just because of Death River's words, his mood was not as calm as before.

How could he not see that the Evergreen Tree was willing to hand over part of its original power in the hope of using benefits to solidify the relationship between him and himself.

But it's a bit ridiculous for the other party to think that they can catch him in this way.

Chu Yang would not be the kind of person who takes advantage of others, unless the part of his original power he handed over had the effect of forcing Chu Yang to cooperate.

Putting aside the messy thoughts in his mind, Chu Yang looked forward. This time he saw Xue Hongnian suddenly appearing again.

But compared to the Xue Hongnian played by Shi He that we had seen before, the current Xue Hongnian looked even more embarrassed, with indescribable fatigue between his brows, as if he had been in a big battle.

"Why are you here?"

Before Chu Yang could say anything, Xue Hongnian stepped forward and asked Chu Yang.

Chu Yang's face was filled with complicated emotions. After a long silence, he sighed softly and slowly said:

"This time, Taoist Fellow Daoist, I guess he's not pretending to be someone?"

Xue Hongnian's brows suddenly frowned.

"What on earth did you do? Did something happen before I came?"

Chu Yang smiled and did not waste any time on this room.

"Oh, let's talk about how you got here. Seeing that you are in such a mess, could it be that you encountered an accident on the road?"

Hearing these words, Xue Hongnian, who had an ugly face, looked even more powerful and frightening, with an indescribable solemnity between his brows. Although this was not directed at Chu Yang, it was enough for him to see that Xue Hongnian might have encountered many things along the way. suffering.

"You did a good job. You did encounter some troubles on the way, but fortunately, I have solved them all."

Xue Hongnian's frankness was somewhat unexpected to Chu Yang. He did not expect that the other party would naturally inform him of the difficulties on the road in detail, which was different from the arrogant and domineering Xue Hongnian in his impression.

"Since you and I will meet again, I'm afraid it is destined by God, then you and I should just go together to collect the power of blood. Fellow Daoist Gongsun must have good luck with his destiny, so he shouldn't encounter any accidents."

Xue Hongnian snorted coldly.

"Just do what you say. Although I don't like being with you, at least there will be no accidents in terms of safety."

Chu Yang was speechless for a moment. He thought Xue Hongnian had changed his past, but he didn't expect that in just a few words, his true nature was revealed again. 】

But what the other party said is correct. Chu Yang and Xue Hongnian's cooperation does not have to be as laborious as when he was with Gongsun Karen. Cooperation with Xue Hongnian is equally dangerous, but Gongsun Karen's pressure is still greater.

Otherwise, the other party would not have gained such a vicious reputation before, causing people to change their minds.

"How is your health, fellow Taoist? I see that your eyebrows are serious. Could it be that you have consumed too much along the way and your condition has been damaged."

"I have a few elixirs here that can help fellow Taoist to replenish his state. Fellow Taoist, it is better to absorb them as soon as possible to avoid other accidents."

Xue Hongnian looked at the few elixirs that appeared in Chu Yang's palm, and the expression on her face became more and more complicated. She was silent for a long time, and finally took the few elixirs from Chu Yang's hand.

The secret realm is constantly changing, and the situation outside is equally complex.

Since Chu Yang disappeared, Ye Nichang has been secretly absorbing strength to deal with conflicts and contradictions on the hermit side at any time.

But even if Ye Nichang had been prepared, under the attack of many enemies, the preparations made by Ye Nichang still seemed to be insufficient.

While Ye Nichang was handling official duties, the captain of the shadow guard suddenly appeared from the darkness, and said coldly with a calm face:

"Lord City Lord, those people you asked me to monitor have taken action."

Ye Nishang put down the memorial in her hand, raised her head, and stared at the shadow guard with a pair of phoenix eyes.

"Tell me everything about them in detail."

"Some of them contacted the first-level ministers, and some conspired with military generals. Although they were well hidden, they were still discovered by my people..."

Ye Nichang suddenly interrupted.

"Tell me the list of people with whom you are discussing cooperation. I want to see who dares to act so boldly because of their ambition."

The shadow guard told Ye Nichang all the names on the list. After hearing one of the names, Ye Nichang narrowed his eyes slightly, his pupils full of suspicion.

"What did you just say? You mean that there is a stranger named Chu Yang who has a good relationship with the people under my command. It is very likely that he is the mastermind behind the scenes?"

The shadow guard did not hear the sarcasm in Ye Nichang's words, and still came up with the prepared words according to the pre-planned plan.

"Returning to the Lord of the City, according to my investigation, the origin of this man named Chu Yang is strange. He has a good conversation with some military generals, but he is very powerful. The people under my command have not yet investigated his detailed origins."

Ye Nichang interrupted again.

"Okay, there's no need to say any more. From now on, you don't have to be my shadow guard anymore."

Hearing this, the shadow guard felt as if he was struck by lightning. He raised his head and looked at Ye Nichang in disbelief.

There was still a flash of hidden resentment in the depths of his pupils. He thought he hid it well, but it was all invisible in Ye Nichang's eyes.

Seeing that the shadow guard was dissatisfied, Ye Nichang suddenly had some joking thoughts in her heart.

"Why, it seems you are dissatisfied with my decision?"

The shadow guard lowered his head and quickly made amends.

"It was my dereliction of duty to return to the city lord."

"Since you are dissatisfied, I might as well explain it to you."

Ye Nishang stood up, looked at the shadow guard who lowered his head and said slowly:

"Do you know why I can find something wrong with you?"

The shadow guard wanted to get up and escape, but the room was already filled with restrictions prepared by Ye Nichang, and not even a mosquito could escape.

"Because Chu Yang, who you said had a good conversation with our lieutenant general, is actually the partner I found. Even I disdain him. How can he like the people under me?"

Ye Nichang's voice was understated, but the words inside and outside made the shadow guard feel a real coldness.

"Originally, I was still wondering who the traitor closest to me was. I didn't expect you to lose your composure so quickly. You walked onto the stage from the dark and I found out."

Ye Nishang wrote lightly:

"You know my character. Now if you honestly tell me who is behind you, maybe I can be merciful and spare your life. If not, then I can only put you in a prison."
