C283 Xin Hans Struggle (1/2)
Feng Ting looked at Yang Xuan's face. He felt that Yang Xuan's gaze seemed to be somewhat tormented, as if this was not an emotion that could be feigned.
Yang Xuan said solemnly: ”Actually, I am currently suffering, and am tired of this City Lord position. But you know, since this East of the Sea Area belongs to the Chi Mansion, if he doesn't agree, I can only continue to sit on this seat. ”
”Aren't you afraid of letting Chi Mansion know that you're telling me all this?” Feng Ting asked.
”From that night onwards, I have been tired of this City Lord position. Chi Mansion has long known about it.” Yang Xuan laughed.
Feng Ting looked at Yang Xuan and thought for a moment. Then he asked, ”City Lord, you came to find me in the middle of the night.
Yang Xuan laughed, and looked at Feng Ting calmly: ”It's not exactly complaining, I just wanted to chat with you.”
Feng Ting slightly nodded, and asked: ”City Lord, I already know what you want to talk about.”
Yang Xuan obviously did not expect Feng Ting's attitude to be so cold. He was slightly startled, but immediately laughed out loud: ”Aren't you afraid that I'll kill you and Xin Han?”
”Even if you became the city master, you would still suffer so much. If you kill Xin Han and I, I'm afraid you will go crazy, right?” Feng Ting said.
”Hahaha …” Not that I would go crazy, but I will definitely regret it. ” Yang Xuan said solemnly.
Feng Ting suddenly asked after seeing Yang Xuan's repeated gestures of goodwill: ”City Lord, do you know of the other families' unforeseen events?”
Yang Xuan looked at Feng Ting and said with a calm smile, ”Not only do I know about the changes in the other families, I also know about some of the things that happened in the Desolate Demon Region. Although they weren't all, they should be more than Chi Mansion and Qi Cang Sect. Because the people of Chi Mansion and the Qi Cang Sect all died in the Wilderness. ”
Feng Ting wasn't really surprised, he had always thought that in the Heavenly Book City, the two strongest were Yang Xuan and Xun Hanchuan.
In comparison, Yang Xuan was actually more powerful. Not only was it his cultivation, it was also his shrewdness. It was impossible for Yang Xuan to not know anything after he left the Heavenly Book City. He had obviously sent people to pay attention to him, or perhaps he had long ago arranged for people to come to the Desolate Demon Region. But he believed that Yang Xuan should not know the reason behind the collapse of the pyramidal peak, nor should he know what was happening inside the wolfkill ridge.
Furthermore, he believed that, given Yang Xuan's position, he would definitely pay attention to the Chi Mansion and the Qi Cang Sect, and that he would be constantly aware of some of the changes that had occurred in them.
Yang Xuan continued to speak, ”Qi Cang Sect and Chi Mansion both suffered heavy losses this time, and yet you managed to return safely. I find it hard to understand.”
Feng Ting laughed: ”It's all because they were originally insignificant, which is why they are rivals.”
”Yes, Chi Mansion is indeed a match for Qi Cang Sect, and Qi Cang Sect is also a match for Chi Mansion. But, for you to be able to wander between these two behemoths and remain safe and sound, that is truly an incredible feat.” Yang Xuan's kind eyes suddenly lit up.
Feng Ting laughed: ”City Lord, I said all of this is because of my good luck, do you believe me?”
”I do, but I believe that only strong people can have good luck all the time.” Yang Xuan laughed.
Feng Ting had to respect the way Yang Xuan saw things from a distance. He laughed: ”City Lord, since you said it like that, you don't think you can join us, right?”
”I'd like to join, if you like.” Yang Xuan said as he looked Feng Ting in the eye.
”Just because my luck is good? You want to give up your Chi Mansion and join us? ” Feng Ting asked.
”I don't want to be your enemy.” Yang Xuan said solemnly.
”But if you go like this, you might become an enemy of the Chi Mansion.” Feng Ting asked.
”I have never been a friend of the Chi Mansion, I can only be considered a follower of the Chi Mansion. I have become a follower enough, I want to be myself, just like in the past when I was one of the four prodigies of Grand Dominance.” Yang Xuan's tone was somewhat heavy.
Hearing that, Feng Ting laughed: ”City Lord, you may sacrifice your life for your choice, or even the destruction of your entire family.”
Yang Xuan laughed out of boredom: ”Even if I didn't do that, I would have paid with my life, and even paid with the destruction of my entire family. Because I was involved in things I shouldn't have been involved in, and I knew things I shouldn't have known. Chi Mansion only retained me now because I don't think I am a threat or because they think I am obedient. ”
Feng Ting felt that this was perhaps what Yang Xuan was thinking deep down. Yang Xuan might not have struggled or felt too guilty, but he had participated in the schemes of the Chi Mansion back then.
A person who knew the tainted spots on the Chi Mansion was naturally someone that the Chi Mansion could not tolerate.
Yang Xuan looked at Feng Ting, and laughed: ”Do you believe me now?”
”Yes.” Feng Ting nodded his head, but then continued: ”But I think you can go to the Sky Capital, find a genuine great character for support, or go directly to the Emperor and report about the Chi Mansion.”
Yang Xuan shook his head and laughed: ”I have only been a city lord for eighteen years, my understanding of Tiandu is far inferior to that of Director Xun. As for the Great Emperor, I think there are very few people in this world who have ever seen a Great Emperor. Even the Palace Chief of Chi Mansion may not have met the Great Emperor. ”
Feng Ting heard this and felt that it made sense. Although Yang Xuan was the city lord, he was only a few decades old, and could indeed not compare to Xun Hanchuan, who had lived for more than two hundred years. As for the Emperor of Heaven, although he was in charge of the sect, the number of people who had seen him was truly too few.
In Feng Ting's first life, the Heaven Dynasty was like the current Heaven Dynasty, still in its peak. In his previous life, he was too busy fighting the stink fire and he really wasn't in the mood to pay attention to Heaven Dynasty.
