Return to the month before the end of the world

Chapter 318 Principles

Don't think that Xiao Chan is asking for benefits. In fact, her intentions are definitely good.

First of all, she is the leader of Peach Blossom Spring. This time there were casualties among the Detachment of Women and the hunting group. She could not take any benefits, otherwise she would not be able to explain to her subordinates. Even if the family has a big business, it cannot be squandered like this.

The second thing is to consider Yang Mingyu.This time Taohuayuan can definitely be said to have made a great contribution. He changed the situation with his own efforts and successfully captured the murderer. It is not an exaggeration to call him the savior of Yucheng.

In the face of such kindness, a little material is nothing. You must know that the most lacking thing in Taohuayuan now is material.

It was precisely because Yang Mingyu understood this that he decisively refused. Although it was almost difficult for Yu Cheng to come up with something that would interest Taohuayuan, it would definitely not work without some expression.

"You saved the people of Yucheng from fire and water this time, and also saved my family. I dare not forget this kindness. I will give you a thank you gift later."

Although Yang Mingyu didn't say it directly, Xiao Chan knew that this thank you gift was definitely not small, and it was definitely much more valuable than the supplies he brought casually.

"I will send a person over later. If City Master Yang has any problems, you can tell him. I will do my best to help Yucheng get back on track as soon as possible."

"Then there is Chief Lao Xiao. If I need help, I will definitely ask you for help."

"I know that the Lord of the City must be busy with official duties at this time, so I will go back first and return to Happy Valley early tomorrow morning."

"So anxious?"

Xiao Chan nodded. This was the imperial city after all. To be honest, they were still guests, so it was better to leave as soon as possible.

"There will be a big reshuffle in Yucheng. Is Leader Xiao interested in participating in it?"

Xiao Chan waved her hand hurriedly: "Don't joke, Lord City Lord. If there is business, I will naturally like it, and I will not be interested in anything else."

This rebellion has resulted in the imperial city's nobles being wiped out. All forces will be reshuffled. The strength of the imperial city will drop a lot in a short period of time, but as long as there is enough time, it can surpass the original.

Yang Mingyu's intention was to let Taohuayuan enter the imperial city system. This was undoubtedly a good opportunity to expand Taohuayuan's influence, but Xiao Chan rejected it.

"Chief Xiao might as well think about it carefully."

"No need to think about it, Lord City Lord, Peach Blossom Spring has no intention of any forces getting involved."

Seeing Xiao Chan's resolute attitude, Yang Mingyu did not mention the matter again.

Xiao Chan returned to the courtyard after leaving the city lord's palace. The Detachment of Women and the hunting group had already left after sending the rebels to the city, so that the courtyard was not overcrowded.

Xiao Chan hurriedly rushed into a room and was instantly relieved when she saw the scene inside.

A beautiful woman in the room raised her head when she heard the noise and saw Xiao Chan speaking in a strange accent.

"Oh, our Superman is back. He's really good at catching missiles with his bare hands, isn't he?"

Hearing Li Xue's sinister tone, Xiao Chan waved the women's soldiers around who were lowering their heads and snickering away, and then walked to sit next to Li Xue.

"I can't help it. I can't just watch my sisters die in front of me."

"Hmph, why don't you ask other people, even if we die, nothing will happen to you, otherwise what will happen to Peach Blossom Spring? Have you ever thought about it?"

Xiao Chan said calmly: "It won't be the same next time. It won't be the same next time."

Naturally, Li Xue could not believe Xiao Chan's lies. She knew very well that the leader could not remain indifferent in that situation, otherwise the Detachment of Women would not respect her so much. She just reminded Xiao Chan.

"How is the situation in Yucheng?"

"Just now City Lord Yang invited me to participate?"

"You refused."

Although Li Xue's sentence was a question, his tone was quite firm.

"That's right, I refused directly. Now the imperial city has become a one-word hall. It's better to be cautious while the situation is still unclear."

Xiao Chan did not deny it. She was also wanting to hear Li Xue's advice on this matter.

Unexpectedly, Li Xue did not continue to ask, but talked about another seemingly unrelated matter.

"I heard that Sister Lin and City Lord Yang had a good relationship before?"

Xiao Chan replied without changing her expression: "Yes, City Lord Yang and Sister Lin's fathers came from the same village. They later served as soldiers together and they have a very good relationship."

"So that's it, what do you need me to do?"

"Do your own thing well first, I trust her, and we'll talk about other things later."

Xiao Chan understood what Li Xue meant, but she was not worried because at least no one could threaten her at the moment.

"I understand, I will arrange it. When will we leave?"

Li Xue also understood what Xiao Chan meant. Although she and Lin Haimei had the same problem and were rescued by Xiao Chan, they had almost no relationship, so they still had to say what needed to be said.

"How is your injury doing tomorrow morning?"

"Almost okay, but I found the mutant figure in that person's memory. I have a feeling that the previous assassination case was not simple."

Xiao Chan couldn't help but frown. Of course she had not forgotten the previous assassination case. She originally thought it was the rebels who carried out the assassination, but now it seemed that it was someone else.

"I think this rebellion may be related to those people, but it's a pity that the prisoners are not in our hands."

"We are outsiders after all, please remind City Master Yang."

"it is good."

Early the next morning, just as Xiao Chan and his party were preparing to leave, Yang Mingyu came to see them off.

After some pleasantries, Xiao Chan mentioned the assassination case.

"Lord City Lord, my men told me last night that the people who assassinated you were not these rebels. There may be others. There may be some relationship between them and the rebels. Lord City Lord, please pay more attention."

"What? I understand. Thank you, Chief Xiao. How is she doing now?"

"I just woke up, it will take some time to recover." Xiao Chan answered the question half-truthfully.

"That's fine. Originally, I wanted to ask her to help with the investigation. Leader Xiao really envy me to have such a proud subordinate."

"You're welcome, City Master Yang. It won't be long before there will be such talents in Yucheng. Then City Master Yang won't be envious."

What Xiao Chan was talking about was of course the Awakening Liquid. No matter how little the Awakening Liquid was, there would still be a lot of Awakened Ones in the imperial city.

"I still need to trouble Chief Xiao."

Yang Mingyu knew that it was too late to develop the awakening liquid based on Yu Cheng's current ability. The most convenient way was to learn directly from Chaoyang City. It seemed that he still needed to discuss it with Zhan Beizun. It was impossible without paying some price.

He might not have done this before, but now he owed Zhan Beizun and Xiao Chan so much that he didn't care about it anymore.
