The subsequent "seeing off" was also very smooth without any major setbacks.

One of the guys had a very powerful life-saving trump card. He actually erased the tracking pattern that Chen Qingyuan had left on his body, and almost let him escape.

Fortunately, Chen Qingyuan was fast enough and did not lose the guest. He sent the guest to where he should go. His courtesy was considerate and the service was satisfactory. No guest had any bad things to say about him.

There are five people and a total of thirteen Sumeru rings.

A divine thought swept across and destroyed the restriction on the ring without damaging the items inside.

Chen Qingyuan was in no mood to investigate the identities and origins of these people. They might be powerful independent cultivators, or there might be some force behind them.

The person who came here has already gone to the Western Paradise and left all his belongings to Chen Qingyuan. How can we continue to pursue the matter? We should stop while we are ahead.

Although Chen Qingyuan really wanted to carefully check these Sumeru rings to see how many good things were inside, he resisted the urge and did not do so for the time being.

The reason was simple, he smelled some bystanders. A polite person like Chen Qingyuan would of course go over and say hello.

"call out"

The body flashed and disappeared into thin air.

When he appeared again, he was already in a desolate and dark starry sky.

Chen Qingyuan is not the only one in this world.

There are two old guys hiding in this void. Although they are hidden deep, they can't hide from Chen Qingyuan's eyes.

"You two, come out and have a chat."

Chen Qingyuan spoke loudly to a very quiet and empty area.

Seeing that they could no longer hide, the two powerful men who had been hiding in the dark stepped out.

The two of them saw clearly what had just happened and were terrified and shocked.

For so many years, Chen Qingyuan has been pretending to be dying.

Maybe he was indeed injured before, but he must have recovered in some way. After recovering, he began to plot, using himself as bait to lure people into the trap.

He is so scheming. Who can stand it?

The top figure of the Divine Bridge Eight Steps only took two punches from Chen Qingyuan at most.

The strong man had indeed underestimated his enemy. He had not expected to encounter this situation, so he didn't even have time to summon his innate Taoist soldiers and was easily wiped out.

Having said that, even if that person used all his trump cards, he would not be able to withstand Chen Qingyuan's moves and would not be able to change the outcome.

The absolute power suppression means that the two are not on the same level at all. There is a chasm between them that is insurmountable.

"Greetings, Your Majesty!"

As soon as the two appeared, they immediately bowed to Chen Qingyuan, being extremely respectful and not daring to offend him in the slightest.

One was an elderly man, short in stature, with wrinkled and dark skin, wearing light pink clothes, looking a bit flashy.

The other was an old woman dressed in luxurious brocade clothes. Although she was very old, with snow-white hair and a face full of wrinkles, she had an excellent temperament and looked very noble.

"Are you two trying to catch the mantis while the oriole is behind?"

Chen Qingyuan looked at the two people in front of him with a smile.

Upon hearing this, both of their bodies trembled at the same time, with small movements but huge emotional fluctuations in their hearts.

An indescribable chill surged through their bodies, freezing them to the bone and suffocating their souls.

"Your Excellency is joking. We just happened to be passing by."

Both of them hastened to deny it.

"really?"

Chen Qingyuan pretended to be suspicious, with the corners of his lips curled up from time to time, which made people feel frightened, sweating profusely and uneasy.

"real."

The two nodded heavily.

"There's nothing in this shabby place. You just happened to pass by. What a coincidence. And if you were passing by, why did you stay here and not leave quickly?"

Chen Qingyuan continued to ask.

When they saw Chen Qingyuan's ferocious look, the two of them shrank in place, not daring to move, for fear that they would reveal a trace of fluctuations in the laws and thus be targeted.

However, the two used many means to conceal their own aura, but still could not escape Chen Qingyuan's sharp eyes.

"Uh... well... this is because we came from different places and happened to run into each other, so we stopped here to exchange a few pleasantries."

The short old man hesitated for a while, thought of a more reasonable reason, and forced a smile.

"is it?"

Chen Qingyuan turned and looked at the old woman who was dressed in luxurious clothes.

"exactly."

The old woman nodded quickly in response, she was extremely panicked but pretended to be calm on the surface.

"Your excuse is so ridiculous that I find it hard to believe. In my opinion, you two must be old lovers. Did you make an appointment to meet here?"

Since these two people want to find a reason, Chen Qingyuan will help them and make an inference.

"How can it be!"

Hearing this, the old woman hurriedly distanced herself from the matter, fearing that it would tarnish her reputation.

When I was young, I was very beautiful and outshined my peers. How could I be interested in such an ugly girl?

"Your Excellency, it's not what you think." The short old man said humbly, "We are just passing by, and we have no other intentions."

"How about you swear a Dao Heart Oath. If you lie, you will incur the ultimate punishment from Heaven. As long as you swear, I will definitely believe it and will not question it again."

Chen Qingyuan gave a suggestion.

"this......"

The two of them tensed up, not knowing what to say.

If one really swore a blood oath, one would surely incur punishment from heaven.

Either die at the hands of Chen Qingyuan, or die under heaven's punishment.

The result is the same, no difference.

The two of them were anxious, and they thought of many ways to escape, but they rejected all of them as unlikely to succeed. As for fighting Chen Qingyuan to the end, they didn't even dare to think about it.

Forget about this kind of suicidal behavior!

what can we do about it?

The short old man and the old woman began to get anxious. Beads of sweat broke out on their foreheads and their faces became increasingly uneasy, losing the calmness they had just pretended to have.

"I forgot to ask, where are you two from and what are your names?"

Seeing that the two were in a tense mood and Chen Qingyuan showed no sign of taking action, he skipped the topic of swearing an oath and said this.

The two men opened their mouths to speak, but they were hesitant, fearing that their origins would be exposed and that it would affect their clan.

If you really can't escape this disaster, just die alone and don't get involved in other things.

However, Chen Qingyuan's next words made the two of them even more flustered and unable to keep their composure.

"You are from the Purple Moon Ancient Clan!"

Chen Qingyuan stared at the short old man with a slightly playful smile.

boom!

After he said this, the old man's body shook slightly. Although the movement was slight, Chen Qingyuan still caught it, proving that his guess was correct.

Chen Qingyuan thought carefully about the subtle aura of law emanating from the short old man, and soon found the source.

"You are from the ancient Yanying clan."

Then, Chen Qingyuan shifted his gaze to the noble lady, raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and revealed her origin.

Ruined!

Hearing this, the old woman felt as if the sky had fallen. Her face turned pale and she felt weak all over.

Is it possible that not only will I die today, but I will also be implicated in cause and effect, bringing huge trouble to the clan?

In fact, both of them knew that with Chen Qingyuan's means, it would not be difficult to find out their identities. They did not expect it to be so easy, and it was revealed in one sentence.

"Don't be afraid. If I really wanted to kill you, I would have done it a long time ago. There's no need to wait until now."

Chen Qingyuan said soothingly.

call--

It seemed that there was something to talk about. The two of them breathed a sigh of relief and calmed themselves down.

"Your Majesty, what do you want to do?"

The short old man dared to ask.

"I am a reasonable and kind person." Chen Qingyuan smiled and said, "Spending money will ward off disasters, understand?"

Are you kind?

It's really a huge joke.

When he killed the person just now, his movements were quick and decisive, without even blinking an eye.

You can only mutter this in your heart and not say it out loud.

"understood."

Now that they have said that, how could they not understand?

Then, the two of them took out all the spatial objects on their bodies and placed them in front of Chen Qingyuan.

The short old man originally wanted to take out his own natal Taoist treasure, but he was frightened by Chen Qingyuan's look. He dared not act and gave up.

Forget it. At worst I can just sever the contractual Dao pattern with my natal Dao treasure and find a suitable weapon again.

Seeing the short old man's frustrated look, the old woman was actually happy. Because she had been wearing her Taoist weapon, which was a very close-fitting jade silk soft armor, a top-grade defensive Taoist weapon, which was rare in the world.

"anything else?"

Chen Qingyuan gave the old woman a hint.

"What else?"

the old woman asked back.

"You're pretending to be confused, huh?" Chen Qingyuan's eyes suddenly turned cold: "I'm just too lazy to do it, but that doesn't mean I can't do it."

The old woman dared not talk nonsense when faced with such a naked threat. She quickly took off the jade silk soft armor she was wearing, pretended that it was not intentional, and apologized: "I forgot, please don't be angry, Your Majesty."

"That's pretty much it."

Chen Qingyuan showed a satisfied smile.

"Your Majesty, what happened today was purely coincidental. Now that you have accepted our apology, this matter should be over!"

The short old man smiled flatteringly.

"What's over?" Chen Qingyuan swept his sleeves and took away all the things: "What you just gave me is just the money to buy my life. This cause and effect has not been severed, we will slowly settle the accounts later. Don't worry, as long as you cooperate, I won't have the intention to kill you."

"What? We're going to have to settle accounts in the future?"

The short old man was confused.

"Your Excellency, this is inappropriate!"

The old woman was dumbfounded. She had never seen such a style of behavior.

"How about I return the things to you, and then I'll spend some effort to send you to the Buddhist West Heaven, and then loot the things back." As he spoke, Chen Qingyuan took out the resources he had just obtained and kindly asked the two for their suggestions: "Do you think this method will work?"

This sentence is very straightforward. Even if I kill you, the things are still mine.

The reason why I let you go is to earn more resources.

If a person dies, it is a personal act for the ancient tribe to bite him to death, and it has nothing to do with the tribe. According to Chen Qingyuan's reasonable character, he is more or less embarrassed to do it.

If people were alive, the situation would be completely different.

After hearing this, the two of them trembled all over and quickly rejected it: "Your Majesty, you should keep it! We will listen to you and apologize in the future."

Even though they knew there was a trap, the two of them stepped in without hesitation.

There is no way. No one wants to die if there is a chance to survive!

"Don't you feel wronged?"

Chen Qingyuan said with concern.
