Chapter 3539: Broken Sword in the Back

Xu Ping added: "After winning the position of commander-in-chief, Yang Chui must not keep his orders. Otherwise, when he recovers from his injuries, he will definitely start an attack."

Xu Lei nodded, glanced at Xu Huai, and said, "I think it won't be too difficult for the head of the family and the Xiao family to join forces to kill the seriously injured Yang Chui."

"This matter must be kept secret. If it is leaked and the Yang family is prepared, the matter will not be done."

Xu Huai warned everyone, and then said: "The most urgent thing is that we still have to find a way to get the black bead from the Yang family in exchange for Chang Ci's life."

Xu Ping said: "We have an informant in the Yang family, and we can ask him to investigate the Black Beads matter now. However, it only lasts three days, and I'm afraid it will be too late."

Xu Huai thought for a while and said: "Let's investigate first. If there is no news within three days, I will go to Yang Chui personally and get straight to the point and ask him to hand over the black beads."

After everyone discussed it, they left.

…

Chen Yang knew that he could not go back to the place he rented before and had to find another place.

He didn't plan to rent a house, but went to the slums at the bottom of the underground city and searched for uninhabited caves.

This place is so shabby that most people would not live here even if they were willing to open up a new area, so there are not many people and there are some empty caves.

Chen Yang walked for a while and suddenly felt a vague wave of true energy coming from behind.

Although it was very weak, his senses were very strong and he still discovered it.

But the strange thing is that this true energy is very unstable, and it seems that it may collapse at any time, and it feels like being seriously injured.

"The peak of immortality!"

Chen Yang's expression changed. He couldn't believe that there were actually cultivators at the peak of immortality in the slums.

This state is not something he can handle now.

He immediately suppressed his cultivation to the extraordinary level and looked back. Although the light was dim, he could still see clearly that it was an old man.

The old man has gray hair and looks old, but he is eight feet tall, wearing a black cloak, walking like a dragon and a tiger, and has an extraordinary momentum.

There was no entourage behind him. It looked like he was taking a walk here.

Chen Yang took a closer look and found that the old man was observing the situation in the slums. When he saw some people living a difficult life, the old man frowned from time to time, his eyes full of pity, regret, and self-blame.

Strange, what kind of person would have such emotions?

While Chen Yang was wondering, the old man walked past him.

The cloak was raised slightly, and Chen Yang took a closer look and found that there was a broken sword stuck behind the old man's back, piercing into his back.

After the majestic wind passed by, the cloak fell down, covering the old man's back, and the broken sword could no longer be seen.

The old man behaved normally. If Chen Yang hadn't seen the broken sword, he would never have known that the old man would be in such a situation.

Suddenly, he understood why the old man's true energy was unstable.

With a sword stuck in the back, it would be strange if the true energy is stable.

"Who is this old man?"

Chen Yang wondered secretly, finding the old man interesting and weird.

At this moment, the old man walked towards a child, squatted down, and seemed to have touched the wound on his back. He grinned in pain, then showed a kind smile and said to the child: "Little guy, you are here. Play, where are your parents?"

The bald little boy, about four or five years old, wearing ragged clothes, was playing with stones.

Hearing the old man's words, he turned around and said with a smile: "They have all gone to work."

"Oh, where do you work?" the old man asked.

The child said: "They seem to be opening up a dungeon. I haven't seen them for several days."

"Maybe it won't be long before we don't have to live in the underground city."

The old man smiled, took out a spiritual stone, hesitated for a moment, then replaced it with a small sword, handed it to the child, and said, "This is for you."

"My mother said, don't take things from strangers."

The child shook his head, then ran away, turning back and saying: "Thank you, grandpa."

The old man smiled sarcastically, put the small sword into the Najie in frustration, and murmured to himself: "The underground city has never seen the light of day, and both the training conditions and living conditions are far worse than those on the ground. If we can defeat the floating city this time Island, just enter the safe zone.”

Shaking his head, the old man sighed: "I really don't understand why the people on the floating island are unwilling to coexist peacefully with the underground city? Wouldn't it be better for everyone to live in a safe zone together?"

Hearing the old man's words, Chen Yang's eyes lit up.

This old man was at the peak of immortality and said such words again, so he must have an extraordinary status.

As if sensing Chen Yang's gaze, the old man turned his head and looked over, smiled at Chen Yang, and said, "Haha, I was just talking casually to make you laugh."

Chen Yang admired the old man very much, and immediately bowed his head and said: "Senior, senior is worried about the future of the underground city. I admire you in my heart, how can I laugh at you?"

The old man looked at Chen Yang, with a flash of doubt in his eyes, and asked: "The underground city is lacking in resources, especially the planting industry. Cotton and cloth are rare and expensive, but the clothes you are wearing are very exquisite and are obviously worth a lot of money." . People like you should live in high places, why come to this slum?"

Chen Yang did not hide anything and said, "I fled here."

"oh?"

The old man didn't expect Chen Yang to be so straightforward, and said with a surprised look on his face: "So, you have enemies, so you are hiding here?"

"That's pretty much it."

Chen Yang nodded.

The old man smiled and said: "I won't ask you why. If you are a villain, we will not be able to continue talking."

Chen Yang said: "Senior's words are really interesting."

"Really? It's been a long time since anyone said that about me."

The old man smiled, but there was no joy at all. Instead, he seemed a little uninterested and full of pain.

Chen Yang said bluntly: "Senior, you seem to be carrying a lot of things."

"Indeed, there are quite a lot, because I hope that people in the underground city can live on the surface and enjoy the sunshine, rain, dew, wind, frost, rain and snow, and the alternation of the four seasons."

The old man sighed with emotion and shook his head: "Why am I telling you this? Farewell!"

After saying that, the old man moved and flew upward.

"Senior, please stay."

Chen Yang caught up immediately, cupped his hands and said, "Senior, junior Chen Yang, we have the honor to meet you today. Can you tell me your surname?"

"Old old Yang Chui."

Yang Chui said his name and was surprised when Chen Yang didn't show any shock when he heard it.

"It turns out to be Senior Yang."

Chen Yang bowed his hands, pointed at Yang Chui's back, and said sternly: "Senior is seriously injured, but has not been treated. Maybe I can help."
