The three major forces stationed in Hongfeng Market had naturally heard about the robbery and massacre by the Ten Thousand Demons Sect. They were also horrified by this appalling and tragic news.
However, for local emperors like them in the market, they have no idea of tracking down, sweeping or even encircling and suppressing the Ten Thousand Demons Cult. Their idea is very simple, just to protect their own interests. Don't let what happened with the Ten Thousand Demons Sect have an impact on them.
So, the first choice they made was to tighten their forces and strengthen the defense in the market.
Everyone cleans up their own troubles, this is also the law of interest for their survival.
Being able to guard the Red Maple Market is their best support for patrolling trade routes.
The vicious incident of robbery and murder by the Ten Thousand Demons Cult occurred in the Hongfeng Mountain area, which naturally attracted the attention of the Zhenfu Division and the Qiankun Division. However, what they didn't expect was that this matter would attract the great god Chen Ping'an, and it would come so quickly!
It is now less than ten days before the Beicang auction begins. In their imagination, young talents like Chen Ping'an will not be able to bear the loneliness and go to the important town of Beicang early to share the experience. Come to Xiang Shengju and feel the ups and downs involved.
I didn’t expect that at this juncture, I would be at the Red Maple Market.
They are located on the periphery of Long'an Commercial Road, so they naturally know something about the chief officer of the Zhenfu Department who is responsible for patrolling the periphery. They began to pay attention to Chen Ping'an as early as when he was the second-in-command patrol on the periphery of the commercial road.
I thought that this rookie star was just here to get some gold, and he would go back when he had enough experience. But I never thought that not long after taking office, this man would perform a feat that shocked everyone.
He personally led the team and defeated a hall of Tianluo Sect!
Tianluo Sect! This is Tianluo Sect!
Later, he was naturally promoted to the position of trade route inspector. In recent days, he has entered the Xuanguang realm. No matter how chaotic other places are, the Wufeng Mountain City where he is located is as stable as Mount Tai. We truly have one person covering a city!
Such a big boss and a ruthless person suddenly came to Hongfeng Market. How could the three major forces sit still!
Local snakes and local emperors like them are actually most afraid of powerful dragons like Chen Pingan. Not only is he ridiculously powerful, but he also occupies a righteous position and has jurisdiction over them.
So, after receiving the news that Chen Ping'an was about to arrive, the leading figures of several major forces were all worried, for fear of causing any trouble.
But what had to be faced was what had to be faced. After gathering their mood, they hurriedly came out.
They came out with great momentum.
Some shops and some regular customers who were doing business in the market were confused when they saw them coming out, wondering why all the big bosses who were rarely seen on weekdays had to run away. out.
“Why are all these big guys running away? What’s going on?”
"I don't know! Just go and take a look and you'll find out!"
"It makes sense!"
"."
If someone has good intentions, follow him from a distance and take a look. I saw these famous bosses standing respectfully in front of the market gate, facing into the distance, as if they were waiting for someone.
“Are you waiting for someone?”
“It looks like you are. Who are you waiting for? They can actually let these people come out!”
< br>"I don't know, he must be some big shot!"
Amidst the whispers of the onlookers, there was a faint sound of horse hooves in front of the market. As the sound of horse hooves got closer and closer, dozens of riders appeared on the road.
The horse is galloping, and the dust kicked up by its feet is flying in the sun. As the cavalry approached, the figure of the leader became clearer. Dressed in brocade clothes, the sleeves of her clothes are fluttering, like the gorgeous clouds in the sky. Judging from his face, he is not very old, but he is actually a young man wearing bright clothes and angry horses!
Call!
The riders pulled the reins, and with the horses neighing, the riders stopped in front of the Red Maple Market. The horse's hooves trampled back and forth, splashing dust all over the ground.
Looking at the young man who was surrounded by the riders, everyone in front of the Red Maple Market looked solemn, and they all bowed and saluted.
"We are here to see Commander Chen! I sincerely wish you all the best, Commander!"
Chen Ping'an looked around, and the martial arts realm of everyone present was all clear to his heart. With his current level of martial arts, it would be extremely easy to achieve this level.
The people present do not exist in the Mysterious Light Realm. The strongest person is at the level of the three levels of inner energy, and he has only barely reached it.
Although the scale here is not small, after all, it is just a large gathering with limited benefits, so it is difficult to attract the attention of the Xuanguang Realm. It would be a bit strange if there were martial arts practitioners in the Xuanguang Realm among them.
Well, if there are large black markets hidden behind many large markets, there may be martial arts masters in the Xuanguang realm.
However, whether it is the inner energy realm or the mysterious light realm, to today's Chen Ping'an, they are just trivial matters. The most urgent task is to understand clearly what the caravan was doing in the market and see if we can use this to investigate the matter of the Ten Thousand Demons Cult.
"Everyone, get up!" Chen Pingan said calmly.
“Yes!” Everyone raised their heads in response.
"Little old man, Huang Zhishu, I would like to welcome you. Your presence really makes the red maple trees shine!" An old man of medium height and good spirits came forward and said with a smile on his face. It seems that among the major forces in Hongfeng Market, he is the main one.
“Yes, Sir Commander.”
“Your Majesty, I am really happy to see you.”
“We are really happy to see you in person. Lucky to be born."
"."
Everyone in front of the market licked their faces and leaned in front of Chen Pingan, echoing the atmosphere and talking about all kinds of rainbow farts.
For Chen Ping'an's arrival, they gave the highest level of courtesy. None of them are fools. Everyone knows that if they accidentally offend this adult, they will not be able to live peacefully in the future.
"Commander, please come in, come in quickly!" Amid the respectful greetings and flattery from everyone, Chen Ping'an entered the Red Maple Market.
Some onlookers watched from a distance, marveling at Chen Ping'an's face.
“Who is this person? Why does he look so young?”
"Who is this sir? How respectful are some of the big guys in the market?"
There were also people with clear minds who immediately recognized Chen Pingan's identity.
“This is the commercial road patrol envoy, Chen Ping’an, Mr. Chen!”
“Sir Chen?” In a corner beside the street of Hongfeng Market, stood an ordinary-looking man. , an inconspicuous man. He listened to the discussions around him and looked at Chen Ping'an's figure in the distance. His eyes flashed, he took a few steps back and disappeared into the crowd, and quietly left the place.
On the street, Chen Ping'an listened to the compliments of everyone, his mind moved slightly, and he inadvertently glanced in the direction where the man left.
Hongfeng Mountain, a small cave on the side of a low mountain. Under the cover of the surrounding lush greenery, the entrance to the cave is not obvious.
In the cave, a middle-aged man wearing linen clothes was half-kneeling on the ground. In front of him stood an old man with gray hair wearing gray robes. At this time, the old man was looking at him keenly.
"You mean? Chen Ping'an came to the Red Maple Market?"
"Elder Hui Han said so according to the news from the spies." The middle-aged man said respectfully replied.
"Mang Dao, Mang King Kong, the top talent on the rookie list, Chen Ping'an. Encircled and suppressed the Tianluo Sect, and became famous in one fell swoop."
The old man lowered his head and said in deep thought: "Why are you here at this critical moment! You really pay enough attention to it. ! But."
After thinking for a moment, the old man suddenly raised his head, his eyes flashing.
“You’re here just in time!”
As the elder of the Ten Thousand Demons Sect, he personally led a team to sneak into this place. His main purpose was to cause trouble here. Naturally, the bigger the mess, the better!
Now, the Beicang Auction is about to be held, and the Beicang Town is turbulent, attracting the main force of Fusi in Weishui Town. They have a greater chance of causing trouble here than before!
They robbed and killed a caravan, which was just an appetizer. After that, they will make more moves before the window period passes.
Originally, according to his plan, he changed a route to the trade road and did something big. Completely establish the prestige of the Ten Thousand Demons Cult, and at the same time attack the prestige of the trade routes.
This plan is easy to plan, but when it is actually implemented, even within the window period, the resistance is not small. When he was still worrying about how to make a big deal, who knew, this reckless King Kong would come to his doorstep by himself!
In areas outside the trade routes, what could be more exciting news than killing the patrol envoys outside the trade routes.
If Chen Ping'an really died tragically here, the effect would definitely be better than robbing and killing any caravan.
A rising star who was highly regarded in the Zhenfu Division died tragically in the Hongfeng Mountain area!
If this news is as exciting and exciting as it is, it will not only attract more attention, but also promote the reputation of the Ten Thousand Demons Sect, which is completely in their interests.
The most important thing is that Chen Ping'an once led a team to destroy a hall of Tianluo Sect, and his reputation is not small. If they kill Chen Ping'an here, wouldn't it mean that their Ten Thousand Demons Sect will overwhelm the Tianluo Sect! ?
Thinking of this, the old man’s eyes were full of fire!
Although he is a powerful elder within the Ten Thousand Demons Sect, he still needs more credit! If he can accomplish this, his status and weight within the branch will definitely be greatly improved.
"Chen Ping'an can achieve such a great reputation, and his strength must not be underestimated!"
Thinking of the news that has been widely circulated recently, the old man slowly calmed down.
This is his habit. Whenever there is a big event, he must calm down first.
Chen Ping'an has entered the realm of Xuanguang. According to the most widely circulated statement on the market, he has the combat power of the middle realm of Xuanguang!
"Mysterious Light Middle Realm. In addition, there are also accompanying people!" The old man's eyes flickered, revealing a trace of thought.
Fortunately, according to the news from the spies, Chen Pingan did not have many people accompanying him on this trip. Therefore, apart from Chen Pingan, what they really have to face are these people in Hongfeng Market.
"Although there are many people in the market, they are just local chickens and dogs. Although Chen Ping'an has good methods, he must have made some mistakes when he first came to the market!" Thinking of this, the old man must have thought , looked at the middle-aged man in front of him and said: "Go and invite Elder Lu and Elder Sha! We have something important to discuss."
"Yes, Elder Han!" The middle-aged man responded respectfully, then stood up and went Out of the cave.
In order to make a big move this time, the members of the Ten Thousand Demons Sect worked hard, covering each other, and even used fake actions to attract the eyes of the Zhenfu Division, and sneaked in the three elders quietly.
For this operation, the three elders are all very capable. Among the three, Elder Han has the highest cultivation level, so many mission instructions are basically based on him!
For Chen Ping'an's arrival, several major forces in Hongfeng Market gave the highest level of welcome. In addition, a high-standard welcome banquet was prepared in the shortest possible time.
However, these were all rejected by Chen Pingan.
He didn’t come here just to eat and drink!
"Tell me about the situation of that caravan." He sat upright on the throne and asked the questions of concern straight to the point.
Everyone in Hongfeng Market reported their doubts about Chen Pingan one by one in detail. If there was anything unclear, someone was specially sent to call in the person involved who had experienced it and to explain to Chen Ping'an.
Chen Ping'an expressed satisfaction with everyone's cooperation. I thought it would take some effort, but I didn't expect these people to be so smart.
Yes, after all, not all places have thorns! When you are strong enough, these people are more aware of current affairs than you think!
After some investigation, Chen Pingan had a pretty good grasp of the situation. From the current point of view, there is nothing unusual about what the caravan is doing.
After all, it is impossible for the Ten Thousand Demons Cult to be like the bandits in the mountains, always lurking on the roadside. If so, the risk of their exposure is too high. Therefore, they must have basically grasped the whereabouts of the caravan before they robbed and killed them. The information was transmitted in a timely manner, so the thieves of the Ten Thousand Demon Cult were able to kill him so accurately!
Of course, this is just Chen Pingan’s guess. It's hard to guarantee that there won't be other possibilities.
Perhaps, the Ten Thousand Demons Cult had other opportunities, but they just happened to run into this caravan, and they killed everyone on the spur of the moment.
Chen Pingan sat in the main seat, closed his eyes and concentrated, thinking about the scene in the market just now. That ordinary-looking man still has some problems when I think about it
I just don’t know if he might have something to do with the Ten Thousand Demons Cult!
Whether it is related, you will know after reading more!
Chen Pingan opened his eyes and said hello. You Yongming, who was standing behind him, hurriedly leaned down.
Chen Pingan gave a few instructions in a low voice and asked him to walk through the market briefly, remembering not to alert others.
"Yes, sir." You Yongming respectfully obeyed the order and walked out of the hall.
After You Yongming left, there were many people sitting and standing in the hall, but it suddenly became quiet. The main reason was that Chen Ping'an didn't speak, and they didn't dare to speak at will.
Just when the head of the Huang family, Huang Zhishu, was hesitant to speak and break the ice, a deafening bell rang outside.
Except for Chen Pingan, the expressions of everyone present suddenly changed.
At the same time, an urgent message came from outside the door.
"Report! There is a small group of gangsters outside Hongfeng Market!" (End of this chapter)
