To be honest, Chen Yuan didn't have much interest in the so-called treasure map, and he didn't want to get too involved. In the Imperial City, a place where forces are everywhere and dangerous, keeping a low profile is the key to survival.
No matter how strong your personal strength is, you can't twist your thigh. Since the treasure map has been targeted by the royal family, anyone who wants to take advantage of it needs to weigh their own weight.
With Chen Yuan's character, he would not let himself fall into passivity.
What he wants to know now is why Li Daleng had the courage to fight with others in the imperial city. Doesn't he know that all fighting is prohibited in the imperial city? Or is there some powerful force behind him that allows him to fight in the imperial city without any worries.
Furthermore, from the conversation between the three of them, I heard the shadow of Shendantang. As the largest elixir dealer in the Qi Dynasty, he was interested in a treasure map, which is enough to show that this treasure map contains a big secret.
Although Chen Yuan is not interested in treasure maps, living in such a turbulent world, he must have some means and handles to protect himself. He cannot be involved in a catastrophe for no reason and be unable to protect himself.
Li Daleng and another male cultivator are both at the sixth level of Qi Refining, and the magic weapons in their hands are all of middle grade. Together, they can suppress Ouyang Lan, who is at the seventh level of Qi Refining, without any problem.
After a few moves, Ouyang Lan's parry obviously began to decline. One of the blows even caused him to vomit blood.
"Ouyang Lan, why are you holding on to a useless map? Do you think you and Liu Muyun can really get the treasure on the map? The eldest prince and the ninth prince are both interested in the treasure, even if you can really find the treasure. Where you are, with your strength, do you really think you can snatch the treasure from the royal family?"
Li Daleng was not a murderer, and he would not have taken action against Ouyang Lan in the imperial city if he had not had to.
"Whether we can get the treasure or not is our business, you don't need to care. Go back and tell your master that I, Ouyang Lan, am not a monk from the Northern Territory. If they think they have the strength to compete with the Zhongzhou sect, just come over and I will accompany you to the end. If If you don’t have the guts, don’t get involved, it’s not a good thing for the Qi Dynasty or even the entire Northern Territory.”
Ouyang Lan's words made Li Daleng pause for a moment. He and Ouyang Lan had known each other for a long time. They had known each other five years ago. Although he thought Ouyang Lan's identity was mysterious, he didn't expect it to be a Zhongzhou monk.
Although he has never been to Zhongzhou, and he doesn't know much about the monk world in Zhongzhou, he knows that the Northern Territory cannot be compared with Zhongzhou. In the Northern Territory, a sect with a core-forming monk in charge is considered to be an above-average sect. Even in the Great Qi Dynasty, there are only a hundred or so monks at the core-forming stage.
In Zhongzhou, even the smallest sect will have monks in the Danjing stage, and there may even be old monsters in the Nascent Soul stage.
However, distant water cannot quench the near thirst. Even if Ouyang Lan is really a disciple of a certain sect in Zhongzhou, she will not be able to sing alone in the Daqi Dynasty.
"Don't use Zhongzhou to pressure me. I'm just a powerless casual cultivator who just takes money to do things. If you hand over the treasure map, there will be no relationship between you and me. If not, the two of us can only kill you. "
While talking, Li Daleng and Li Daleng took action again. At this time, an ice sword transformed into an ice sword talisman suddenly came from the two of them.
"Who is it? Why the sneak attack from behind?"
Sensing danger, Li Daleng smashed the ice sword with the iron rod in his hand, then turned and looked to his side.
"Brother Li, you're welcome!"
Originally, Chen Yuan was unwilling to participate in this battle that had nothing to do with him, but when he heard Liu Muyun's name from Li Daleng, he had to take action.
Along the way of cultivation, there were only a few people Chen Yuan cared about, and Liu Muyun was definitely the most important one.
"Brother Chen, why are you here? Are you also interested in the treasure map?"
When he first met Chen Yuan, Li Daleng was shocked by Chen Yuan's strength. Now more than ten years later, although Chen Yuan is only at the seventh level of Qi Refining, Li Daleng believes that he will not be his opponent.
Just from the previous talisman, you can conclude that if you don't make three moves, you will definitely lose.
"Who is this person?" The male cultivator next to Li Daleng asked via voice transmission.
"Chen Yuan is a powerful person whose identity is a mystery. Some people assert that the black and yellow dragon energy in the secret palace of the dynasty was obtained by this person."
Looking at Chen Yuan with a calm expression, Li Daleng took a step back and said: "Brother Chen, you and I were destined to be together. I don't want you to be involved in this terrible catastrophe. Heed the next advice and follow the emperor's instructions as soon as possible." Leave the city. It seems prosperous here, but it is no longer suitable for us monks."
Chen Yuan didn't know why Li Daleng said this, but he still smiled and said: "Thank you Brother Li for your kindness. However, I am also somewhat interested in the treasure map, and I ask Brother Li to show your love and not compete with me. "
The conversation had reached this point. Li Daleng also knew that his strength was limited. After taking a look at his companions, he said: "Let's go!"
"Why should we be afraid of him? What is his origin?" Li Daleng's companion asked in confusion.
"This person's identity is mysterious. I once lived in Huiyue City for a period of time. At that time, the Tianmo Sect was the biggest demon scourge in Huiyue City and Kangle City. It was the appearance of this person that eventually led to the destruction of the Tianmo Sect. Although the Luoxia Sect was still there They made great efforts to destroy the Tianmo Sect, but some people assert that if it weren’t for this person, the Luoxia Sect would have only failed.”
Although Chen Yuan didn't know that later generations were boasting about him, Li Daleng and Li Daleng did believe it. Since we can no longer get the treasure map today, we can only report the whole story to the authorities. As for the decision from above, it is not up to the two of them.
"Why are you here?"
Ouyang Lan was also surprised by Chen Yuan's appearance. She still vividly remembered the first time she met Chen Yuan in the black market of Leisure City.
It was an unpleasant encounter.
As for Chen Yuan rescuing her and a group of women from the underground cave of Tianmo Sect, he owed Chen Yuan a small favor, but that was something Chen Yuan did easily, and it was not intentional at all.
"Miss Ouyang, are you okay?" Chen Yuan greeted with a smile.
"You and I are not familiar with each other, so it's better not to have anything to do with each other." Ever since Chen Yuan rejected her plea for the first time, Chen Yuan had planted bad seeds in her heart.
"It is true that we are not familiar with each other, but I am somewhat interested in the treasure map in your hand. I wonder if Ouyang Gu Nian can borrow it to take a look at it?"
The reason why Chen Yuan suddenly took action was because Li Daleng mentioned Liu Muyun, and his action showed that he had begun to participate in the treasure map. Regardless of whether the treasure map was related to the royal family or the Shendan Hall, he was already involved in the incident. one of them.
Since he was already involved, he naturally wanted to know what treasure the treasure map was about.
"Don't even think about it. The treasure map is of great importance. The nine princes of the Qi Dynasty can't get it, and you can't even think about it."
Ouyang Lan made a defensive posture, and her impression of Chen Yuan increased even more with her angry face.
"Since Miss Ouyang doesn't want to, I can't force you. So, I'll take my leave."
As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Yuan flew away with his sword.
Although I don’t know why Chen Yuan suddenly appeared and left suddenly, I consider myself lucky to be able to get rid of Li Daleng and the other two. After Ouyang Lan was stunned at the scene for a moment, he took advantage of the darkness and began to fly towards the outside of the imperial city.
In fact, Chen Yuan didn't leave very far. His consciousness was always following Ouyang Lan.
He knew that Ouyang Lan was unfriendly to him and she would definitely not tell him if he directly asked about Liu Muyun. Following quietly like this would make it easier for him to find Liu Muyun.
Ouyang Lan acted extremely carefully and walked around the imperial city three times before jumping out of the city from the east.
After leaving the city, Ouyang Lan first covered herself in black clothes and then entered the black market on the outskirts.
Chen Yuan didn't know why this woman always liked to hide her identity in the black market. It seemed that this had become her habit. Perhaps she believed that the crowded and chaotic black market was the easiest place to hide her identity.
Chen Yuan's consciousness did not leave. He wanted to know the whereabouts of Liu Muyun, so he naturally had to enter the black market.
Entering the black market, the consciousness can no longer be dispersed at will. In a place like the Imperial City where forces are widespread, any one person may be a strong person who cannot compete. Especially in a place like the black market, there are countless strong people hidden.
Fortunately, Ouyang Lan's figure is easy to identify, otherwise it would be difficult to find him after entering the black market.
Ouyang Lan first set up a stall in a relatively hidden place in the black market. The soft silk armor was more than ten years old. Since it has not been sold yet, it is unknown whether it is because the monks in the world do not know the goods or for other reasons.
In two hours, Ouyang Lan made a total of three transactions, and the person who made the third transaction with her was a burly man.
"The thing has been obtained. You bring it to the Grand Master. I don't want to participate in the follow-up plan. Please tell the Grand Master that I will leave Daqi Imperial City in three days. Find a way to return to Zhongzhou."
Ouyang Lan conveyed the sound of a tall and handsome man.
"No, the Grand Master will not agree. I have sent you to Da Qi Dynasty for more than ten years just for this most important plan. If you leave, the Grand Master will definitely kill you first. If you want to return safely, When you come to Zhongzhou, you must participate in this plan. You should know what kind of character the Grand Master is."
The sturdy man handed over two hundred spiritual stones, took a storage bag from Ouyang Lan's stall, and turned around to leave the black market.
Ouyang Lan stayed in the black market for another hour and left the black market.
Chen Yuan naturally couldn't hear the voice transmission between Ouyang Lan and the sturdy man, so he didn't know Ouyang Lan's hidden identity, so he could only continue to follow Ouyang Lan out of the black market.
Taking advantage of the darkness, Ouyang Lan flew with his sword, and finally arrived at a small town a hundred miles away from the imperial city before the sun came up.
The name of the town is Tianyuan Town. Ouyang Lan directly entered the inn of the town, then fell down and started to sleep.
In order not to attract Ouyang Lan's attention, Chen Yuan stayed in another smaller inn.
