Chapter 540 Bring Friends Along
The leader of the sect sighed helplessly.
He understood that Chen Yu simply had no desire to be the helmsman of the Daoist sect.
Moreover, today marked the great day of the annihilation of the Divine Eagle Sect, and he didn’t want to make things too rigid.
“Alright, let’s put aside the matter of the helmsman for now! We should first consider taking over the assets of the Divine Eagle Sect.”
This statement gave everyone a way to step down, and they retreated one after another.
Chen Yu also turned around and, with great respect, performed a Daoist etiquette, then left with Xiao Chun.
After descending the mountain, the two arrived in the small town on the outskirts.
Although all the children had been sent away before, there were still some friends of Xiao Chun in the town.
She wanted to take them all with her before leaving.
Although the small town was not large, the residents were rich merchants with business dealings with the Divine Eagle Sect.
Many of the basic constructions were funded and built by these merchants.
Thus, the small town appeared quite prosperous, and there was even an Antiquity Street.
Rushed and panicked, Xiao Chun led Chen Yu to a somewhat dilapidated slum area.
In the large shanty, there was only an elderly man leaning against a wooden stump, constantly coughing.
“Grandpa Huang!” Xiao Chun hurriedly ran over. The old man struggled to lift his head, his dry eyes covered with a layer of white crystalline mist, seemingly a sign of cataracts.
“Xiao Chun!” exclaimed the old man, somewhat surprised, “You escaped?”
Xiao Chun nodded, “Why are you alone here? Where is Xiao Xue? And where did the others go?”
The old man sighed helplessly.
“We, in such a place, cannot survive; many people have left!”
“Xiao Xue went to the Antiquity Street to get us some food, saying she was going to sell the family heirloom heaven bead!”
Xiao Chun immediately became anxious and hurriedly ran towards the street not far away.
Chen Yu quickly followed her!
Upon arriving at Antiquity Street, they saw a large crowd of people gathered around a small stall, bustling with noise.
“Looks like this young lady is in trouble today! The smashed items won’t cost less than one or two hundred thousand.”
“Such a young age with such a temper, if something is wrong, she wrecks the seller’s merchandise. Why on earth did she have to flip over the stall?”
“This peddler is not a good man either; he might indeed have cheated the young girl.”
…
Chen Yu and Xiao Chun hurriedly ran over and squeezed into the crowd.
A girl looking around ten years old was half-lying on the ground, her face full of grievance, her fair arms covered with wounds, likely from being cut by the broken porcelain. Continue your adventure with Novgo
The stall owner, an extremely sleazy middle-aged man, was grabbing the girl’s collar, refusing to let go.
“Little sister, I won’t hold the other damaged items against you, but this jade is my family treasure. If you don’t give me an explanation, we can’t settle this matter today!”
Chen Yu glanced at the so-called family treasure in the middle-aged man’s hand and his face immediately filled with a trace of mockery.
It was nothing more than a piece of inferior jade made of synthetic zirconium dioxide.
“Boss, that’s enough, no need to be so petty with a child!”
