Heaven Extinction Martial Emperor - Chapter 822
Chapter 822: Like a Fishbone stuck in the throat (3) _1
“I’m going out for a while, you can handle all non-urgent matters.” Xia qingchen spoke.
Fan Yin nodded, a trace of anxiety in his eyes.
She had already learned from other channels that the middle cloud realm had sent an emissary delegation to the birthday banquet of the king of Liang.
Prince Liang’s answer was that the princess, fan yinmiao, had already been killed by Yu guitian.
This news would definitely cause a great uproar in the zhongyun city.
Not only that, but the influence that she had built up in the zhongyun territory with great difficulty would gradually disappear. Even if she returned to the zhongyun territory successfully, it would be useless.
As though he could see her worry, Xia qingchen said, ” do your job well. If you perform well, I’ll consider letting you go.
Of course, there was a prerequisite for letting her go. He would never let this extremely intelligent threat return to the mountains.
Upon hearing this, fan Yin was overjoyed and hurriedly said, “”Don’t worry, Lord Xia, I’ll work for you wholeheartedly.”
“That would be best.” Xia qingchen calmly spoke. After that, he set off for the eastern city of the Liang province.
Heavenly tea house.
At the entrance of the first floor, Li Zicheng was pacing back and forth with his hands behind his back, his brows deeply worried.
When he saw Xia qingchen rushing over, he immediately jogged over and said in a happy voice, “”The heavens have taken pity on you, Lord Xia is finally here. I thought you didn’t receive the letter and couldn’t make it.”
“Who is the person who is selling the heavenly fire?” Xia qingchen asked directly.
Li Zicheng looked around and said carefully,”it is said that he is a rather famous merchant in the southern border who has done many big businesses.”
A merchant?
Xia qingchen was a little curious. What kind of merchant would have the qualifications to sell middle-grade and high-grade Skyfire?
“Let’s go up and take a look.” Xia qingchen spoke.
Li Zicheng led the way in front. The second floor of the teahouse was already filled with many people, all of them anxiously waiting for something.
“What, are these people here to buy the heaven flame?” Xia qingchen asked. He roughly counted ten people present.
Li Zicheng said helplessly, ” the medium-grade heavenly fire is such a precious thing. The other party naturally knows the principle of holding the goods for sale. Whoever offers the highest price will get the heavenly fire.
Xia qingchen frowned slightly, feeling that this was a little unreliable.
Almost none of the people in front of him were from prominent families. At most, they were from third-grade families.
Since he wanted to sell the goods, why not invite a first-class or even a super-class family?
The price they could offer was obviously higher.
Just as he was walking, a knocking sound came from the stairs.
Turning his gaze to the side, he saw that the person who had come was actually an old acquaintance of Xia qingchen ‘s-Lin haonan!
In the three-Army competition, the performance of the greedy Wolf Legion led by Lin haonan was not bad, and they were praised by the commander. They could have won first place in the three-Army competition.
Unfortunately, the yunlan battle group had appeared out of nowhere and streaked through time and space with a stunning appearance, crushing the other party with great force.
Ever since then, the greedy Wolf battle group had disappeared without a trace. No one expected to see their leader, Lin haonan, again.
He had discovered Lin haonan, and the latter had also discovered Xia qingchen.
“Xia qianqi? Long time no see.” Lin haonan didn’t show much hostility, instead, he revealed a faint smile.
There was no friendliness in his smile, but a condescending and calm meaning.
“It’s been a long time,” Xia qingchen replied and shifted his gaze away. He sat on a chair as if nothing had happened, patiently waiting for the seller to appear.
Lin haonan, however, sat down as if he was very familiar with the place, and said with a light smile, “”It’s rare to have the fate to sell heavenly fire together, why are you treating me like an outsider?”
Xia qingchen’s expression was calm. He didn’t remember having any sort of friendship with Lin haonan.
From the first time they met, he did not have a good impression of this person.
“By the way, what have you been doing since the three-Army competition? With the performance of your misty cloud battle group, you should have made quite a few contributions, right?” Lin haonan said.
Xia qingchen glanced at him in astonishment. Was there still someone in Liangzhou city who didn’t know about the matters of the cloudmist battle group?
“It’s just a small achievement, not worth mentioning.” Xia qingchen wasn’t willing to talk about it.
Lin haonan smiled slightly. what a coincidence. I’ve also made some small contributions in the southern border these few months. My greedy wolves battle group is not as good as your misty cloud battle group. My contributions are not as great as yours.
Everyone could tell that he was pretending to be humble, but in fact, he wanted to flaunt himself.
Ordinary people would casually ask what he had done.
However, Xia qingchen couldn’t even be bothered to ask. He felt that even the little contribution the cloudmist battle group had made was a small contribution, let alone Lin haonan’s.
“Oh.” He replied indifferently without any intention of asking further.
This made Lin haonan, who wanted to show off, feel as if there was a Fishbone stuck in his throat.
After a moment of silence, he finally couldn’t help but say to himself, ” to be honest, the greedy Wolf Legion has received a top-secret mission from Wan Xiaoqi. We are going to the southern border to defend against those barbarians.
“As for me, I killed ten barbarians in the battle, making the local southern border Army soldiers look at our city protection Legion soldiers in a new light!”
With his hands behind his head, he leaned back in his chair and sighed, ” our city protection Legion is responsible for protecting Liangzhou city. We rarely go out to war, which makes the armies beyond the Great Wall despise us.
“This time, our greedy Wolf Regiment has proven the strength of the city protection Legion with our actions, and we have protected our honor! For this, our Wan Xiaoqi has even received praise from the commander.”
He blurted out all his achievements and felt much more at ease.
However, when he turned his head to take a look, he discovered that Xia qingchen’s expression was calm, with no fluctuations at all. He couldn’t help but find it funny. He really knew how to act.
The greedy wolves and misty cloud were the two strongest battle groups in the Northwest Legion. They were competitors.
After Xia qingchen learned of the outstanding achievements of the greedy wolves battle group, would he be indifferent?
He was probably calm on the surface, but he was panicking on the inside, right?
of course, I’m not boasting about myself by saying so much, ” he continued, ” I just feel that we should encourage each other and improve.
Xia qingchen nodded indifferently. “Yes.”
Hehe, you really know how to act!
Lin haonan thought otherwise and said, ” by the way, my officer, Wan Xiaoqi, Wu Xiong, will be coming over later. I’ll introduce you to him.
Without waiting for Xia qingchen to agree, he mumbled to himself, ” Lord Wu Xiong is one of the most promising Wan Xiaoqi. It is said that he is likely to be the next successor of the Huang heavenly group.
“I just came back today, and he was called by the commander to specially praise him.”
“In the future, you should talk more with these adults with potential. You will find that your life is much brighter, understand?”
Wu Xiong?
Xia qingchen had never heard of this person before. He only knew that Wan Xiao from the yellow heaven group rode on Zhou bendao, and he was the one who pulled him down.
He also knew that the commander had reserved the position of the yellow heavenly group for him.
“I’ve learned a lot.” Xia qingchen didn’t mind and replied indifferently.
After Lin haonan revealed his superiority complex, he felt much more at ease and took a big sip of tea.
Dong Dong
Several voices came from the stairs. Everyone looked over and saw a round-faced merchant with a group of guards. They went upstairs and blocked the entrance of the pavilion.
“I’m sorry I’m late,” The round-faced merchant was the person who was selling the sky Fire, Qiu wanjin.
He had indeed arrived late, an hour later than the scheduled time.
However, no one complained. Instead, they expressed their understanding.
After all, this person had a medium-high-grade heavenly fire! (It involves a lot of previous characters, a little bit of a jam, two chapters later at 10 pm)
