Chapter 1014 A Trap
Chen Yang and Chen Xing were stunned simultaneously.
They were both shocked by those words!
Before Chen Yang could speak, Bei Xuan beside him said somewhat speechlessly, "Chen Xing is Chen Yang's junior brother, and he's a demonic beast. How could he possibly have the same aura as the person who robbed you?"
As he spoke, Bei Xuan's gaze fell on Chen Yang, "Chen Yang, you're right, aren't you?"
When Bei Xuan and Xi Bai's eyes landed on Chen Yang, the awkwardness on Chen Yang's face was immediately apparent to both of them.
Bei Xuan and Xi Bai's eyes met.
"Chen Yang... you wouldn't possibly know who robbed me, would you?"
Xi Bai had already had some wine, and his heart had been burning with anger over this matter for days.
Fueled by the alcohol, he immediately stood up and said, "Go, you take me there now!"
"If I can get back the things I lost, I'll let you pick two items!"
Every single item Xi Bai lost was a true treasure of Confucianism.
If the items could be recovered, it wouldn't be impossible for him to give two to Chen Yang.
Chen Yang let out a wry smile, then turned to Chen Xing, "It looks like we have to go back."
The two had only returned not long ago, and now they had to go back again.
Chen Xing lowered his head and remained silent.
Chen Xing had not met the demonic beasts in Kunlun Mountain.
The last time the other party had returned the items, but this time, it might not be the case.
"No way? Chen Yang, you really know that person?"
Bei Xuan was shocked.
He knew Chen Yang was acquainted with many martial artists in the martial world, as the title of Medical Saint Celestial Venerable of the Hall of Heavenly Physicians was a golden signboard.
But to know the martial artist who robbed Xi Bai of his belongings... this was too incredible.
Chen Yang stood up, packing his things as he said, "It's not exactly knowing them, I just helped someone retrieve something last time."
"After I take you there, don't act rashly."
At this moment, Chen Yang did not want the God of War Department to have friction with too many powerful martial artists.
Xi Bai nodded vigorously, anxious, "I'll be grateful enough if I can get back the things I lost. If he's willing to hand them over, I certainly won't act!"
Although Xi Bai was filled with great anger, the most important thing now was to get his belongings back.
Chen Yang was quite quick. After making arrangements with Chen Shu, he immediately took everyone to Kunlun Mountain.
The round trip wouldn't take too long, so Chen Yang didn't inform anyone else.
Upon reaching Kunlun Mountain, before they even entered, Chen Yang suddenly saw a familiar figure.
To be precise, two people!
"Why are you two here?"
Chen Yang looked at the two people in front of him, genuinely confused as to how these two had ended up together.
One of them was Rong Yuqing from Tianji Linglong, and behind Rong Yuqing stood Gong Chengchun, whom he had met before.
Gong Chengchun never expected to see his benefactor again so soon.
He hurriedly cupped his fists and said, "Benefactor, allow me to introduce you. This is Rong Yuqing, the shopkeeper of Tianji Linglong."
"Tianji Linglong has quite a reputation in the martial world. If you desire anything, be it a magical artifact, a secret manual, or anything else, you can find Tianji Linglong."
As Gong Chengchun spoke, he noticed that his benefactor and the people around him were all smiling, not speaking.
Just as Gong Chengchun was confused, Rong Yuqing also walked over.
Rong Yuqing smiled and said, "No need to introduce us. I know all of these people."
"Chen Yang, what news did you receive that brought you here?" Rong Yuqing asked, somewhat puzzled, as this place didn't seem like somewhere Chen Yang frequented.
"Just here to handle some matters."
After Chen Yang finished speaking, Bei Xuan beside him chuckled, "It seems, Shopkeeper Rong, your business is getting more and more prosperous."
"You've even come to such a remote place."
When Bei Xuan returned to the Zen Buddhist Courtyard Sect before, he had specifically sought out Rong Yuqing once.
Rong Yuqing had set up Tianji Linglong near the demonic capital, which had put a lot of pressure on Bei Xuan.
There were more and more Grandmaster and peak Grandmaster martial artists.
No matter what changes happened in between, it was fine among martial artists, but Bei Xuan was afraid that those ancient martial artists might have a change of heart and attack ordinary people.
"Thank you for your words. Business is going well."
As for why she came to this place, Rong Yuqing was naturally unwilling to elaborate. Although they knew each other, their relationship was not close enough to share everything.
Instead, the gorilla beside them caught Rong Yuqing's attention.
Rong Yuqing's eyes sparkled as she scrutinized the gorilla, "Chen Yang, I don't remember having this one among the demonic beasts you keep, do I? Where did you catch it?"
Chen Xing, being stared at, felt his scalp tingle and hid behind Chen Yang, whispering, "Senior Brother, this woman is not a good person!"
Chen Xing had a feeling that if he met this woman alone, he would definitely be captured.
Chen Yang quickly explained, "Boss Rong, this is my junior brother Chen Xing. Although he hasn't transformed yet, he's a peak Grandmaster demonic beast with awakened intelligence. You don't even let awakened intelligent peak Grandmaster demonic beasts go, you are truly..."
He didn't say the last two words, "brazen."
Chen Yang wore a wry smile.
Peak Grandmaster demonic beasts generally had awakened intelligence.
Catching such demonic beasts might incur their wrath.
Upon hearing this, Rong Yuqing coughed and said, "So it's your junior brother. You should have said so earlier!"
As they spoke, the group headed further into Kunlun Mountain.
When they reached the entrance of the mountain range, a gorilla even larger than Chen Xing leaped out and blocked their path.
However, before it could speak, Chen Xing quickly shouted, "Third Uncle! It's me!"
Chen Xing's Third Uncle was startled for a moment before he realized what was happening.
Just now, he had sensed several powerful peak Grandmaster auras approaching, and he thought someone was coming to attack Kunlun Mountain.
He hadn't expected it to be Chen Xing, who had just left, returning with people.
"Huh? Why are you back so quickly, kid? Did someone outside bully you? Tell Uncle, and Uncle will eat him alive!"
As soon as Chen Xing's Third Uncle finished speaking, Rong Yuqing, who was beside him, couldn't help but twitch her lips and hurriedly said, "I am Rong Yuqing from Tianji Linglong. I was invited to come, and I hope senior will let us pass."
Rong Yuqing didn't want Chen Xing to reveal what had just happened!
After understanding that there were two groups of people, Chen Xing's Third Uncle became conflicted.
"Well... Young friend Chen Yang, why don't you go back first?"
Chen Xing's Third Uncle's words immediately made Chen Yang sense something was amiss.
After all, the man was Chen Xing's Third Uncle, and he had interacted with him last time.
He would normally help with such a small favor, but now, not only was he not mentioning it, but he was also asking them to leave directly...
