Chapter 393: #393 - Chapter 393: The Turn of Times

Outside Flame City, Shen Yue stood there dumbfounded. That guy actually let her go. She had been chasing him for so long, wanting to kill him. Although chasing him wasn't entirely because of the treasure map, there were some unspeakable reasons. But she had forced him into desperate situations multiple times. How could he let her go?

Moreover, he said some things that made her feel embarrassed and angry when he left.

"This guy, it seems he's not just someone who relies on power!" Shen Yue muttered.

"She's here, that woman is here."

"It's all because of this woman's people spreading rumors, saying that the kid has a treasure map of the True Dragon Treasure, causing our people to anger Fire Crow Ancestor. She really deserves to die."

"Father, your child will avenge you."

......

Just then, a group of cultivators rushed towards Shen Yue with imposing momentum. They were filled with terrifying killing intent. Seeing this, Shen Yue's pupils shrank, and without saying a word, she immediately fled into the city.

She didn't need to guess their identities. They were nothing more than the relatives and friends of those who had been鎮killed by Fire Crow Ancestor. Now that they knew they couldn't get any benefits from Feng Chen, but had suffered heavy losses, they were filled with anger and hatred. They didn't dare to go to Fire Crow Ancestor or the Eternal Life Tavern, so they could only look for her.

"Hmph, want to escape? Naive!"

Those people looked coldly at Shen Yue's figure. They had long expected that Shen Yue would escape back into the city, and most likely escape to the Eternal Life Tavern, because only in the Eternal Life Tavern did she have a chance of survival.

So they had already arranged manpower in the city, waiting for Shen Yue to walk right into the trap.

......

Eternal Life Tavern, Gu Changsheng lay on the grand master chair, leisurely drinking wine. Fire Crow Ancestor had already taken his leave, and Wu Liang didn't know where he had gone to fool around. Only Feng Chen was wiping the tables and chairs listlessly. There wasn't a single guest.

"It shouldn't be. There were so many guests yesterday, why isn't there even one today?" Feng Chen was full of doubts.

Gu Changsheng, lying on the grand master chair, said lightly, "Guests? Weren't they all killed by you with a single sentence? Do you know how many repeat customers there were? Your sentence has caused me a lot of losses."

Feng Chen's face changed. He realized that not long ago, he had Fire Crow Ancestor kill a group of highly cultivated monks. Many of these people had patronized the tavern before. Now they were all killed by him with a single sentence. In other words, he had killed all the tavern's guests.

Thinking of this, Feng Chen trembled and said, "Boss, I didn't do it on purpose. You don't want me to compensate, do you?"

"Compensate?" Gu Changsheng sized up Feng Chen and said, "With your entire net worth, you can't even afford a jar of century-old peach blossom wine. What can you compensate with?"

Feng Chen was embarrassed when he heard this. The source crystals on his body really couldn't even buy a century-old peach blossom wine, just three low-grade source crystals short.

"Then I'll just have to work for the boss for free for the rest of my life." Feng Chen sighed.

"Why do you sound unwilling? Or do you not want to do it anymore?" Gu Changsheng asked with a smile.

"That's not okay. Since I've caused such a big loss to the tavern, I must take responsibility. Boss, don't say anything, I, Feng Chen, will be your worker from now on. Life doesn't stop, working doesn't stop!" Feng Chen said righteously, looking like a very responsible person.

If I don't do it, wouldn't I have to face countless people chasing me again? That's not okay. I can't be fired no matter what. I have to work hard to be a qualified worker and never give the boss any reason to fire me.

"Boss, I've cleaned the hall. I'll go clean the private rooms."

After cleaning the hall, Feng Chen said to Gu Changsheng with great enthusiasm. A Nirvana Realm expert is a strong person in any ancient star in the mortal world. It is truly rare in ancient and modern times for someone like Feng Chen to be willing to be a handyman.

"Wait!"

Just as Feng Chen was about to go to the private room area, Gu Changsheng suddenly stopped him.

"Boss, what else do you need?" Feng Chen said flatteringly to Gu Changsheng.

Gu Changsheng was used to Feng Chen's lackey appearance and didn't care. Instead, he pointed to the door.

Feng Chen was puzzled and looked at the door. There were no guests. So he walked to the door. Suddenly, a figure crashed into him, and at the moment of the collision, he also felt a warm softness, which was particularly comfortable.

Feng Chen caught the figure. He took a closer look, his pupils shrank, and he exclaimed, "Didn't I tell you to leave quickly? Why are you back again?"

The person who crashed into his arms was Shen Yue, whom he had given a chance to live, and also the person who had been chasing him.

Shen Yue looked up and saw that the person who caught her was actually Feng Chen. She was stunned for a moment, then coughed violently, and a mouthful of blood sprayed onto Feng Chen's black face, dyeing the black color red.

"Hey, you..."

Feng Chen was about to get angry, but found that Shen Yue had fainted.

Feng Chen looked at Shen Yue's body and found that she was bleeding and her clothes were torn in many places, revealing her fair skin. Seeing this scene, Feng Chen couldn't help but think of that erotic scene.

"Bah, bah, bah, I'm a gentleman, what am I thinking?" Feng Chen shook his head quickly.

"Damn it, she escaped into the Eternal Life Tavern."

"This damn woman, how could her strength be so strong? She was able to escape under our siege. She really deserves to die!"

......

At this time, miscellaneous angry voices came from outside the door. Feng Chen hugged Shen Yue and looked outside, and found that there were hundreds of people standing on the street. Most of these people were around the fifth level of the Nirvana Realm, which was not comparable to the previous people at all.

"It's him!"

"It's you, kid. My father died because of him. I want to avenge him."

"Stop, we don't care if you want to avenge him, but don't forget that this is the Eternal Life Tavern. If you want to die, don't implicate us."

The person who shouted for revenge was immediately pulled away by others. They didn't want to follow in the footsteps of their elders or friends.

"Then what do we do now?" Someone asked helplessly.

"......"

Silence, what to do? Their direct enemy was Fire Crow Ancestor, and the main culprit was Feng Chen. One of these two was a Saint Ancestor, and the other could command the Saint Ancestor with a single sentence. They didn't dare to take revenge on them. Don't even think about it.

So that woman became the object of their venting, but now that woman has also entered the Eternal Life Tavern. What should they do?

"I don't believe that this woman will never leave Flame City. I'll have people pay attention in the city. As soon as this woman leaves the Eternal Life Tavern, we'll take action immediately."

"Yes, this woman is a challenger. She will have to leave Flame City sooner or later. Our various forces will jointly send people to keep an eye on her. As soon as we find this woman, we'll besiege her immediately and never let her escape again."

"Okay, it's settled then!"

This group of people made a decision, took a deep look at Feng Chen, and then left. If they didn't leave, they were worried that Feng Chen would once again order Fire Crow Ancestor to destroy them.

Little did they know that Fire Crow Ancestor had already returned. Even if Feng Chen wanted to, he couldn't do anything. Let Gu Changsheng take action? Feng Chen didn't have the guts.

"What's going on? Did this woman cause public outrage? It's really a turn of events. It's gratifying!"

Feng Chen was actually a little gloating.

Although he felt guilty towards this woman and let her go, he really didn't have much affection for her.

"Didn't you say you handled the person? What's going on?"

At this time, Gu Changsheng's faint voice sounded behind Feng Chen, and Feng Chen's whole body shook, and cold sweat broke out.

He turned around stiffly and saw the boss looking at him with a smile. Although the boss was smiling, he always felt creepy. If he couldn't explain it clearly, it was estimated that the boss would deal with him together, right?
