Gods: Start with Goblins

"You mean the guy with the evil spirit? Do you suspect that the evil spirit here is also related to him?"

"That's right. There are no such coincidences in the world. Evil spirits are even less common. It is impossible for them to appear again and again. There must be someone behind it. The person I think is that kid is probably him."

Chen Chuan was silent for a while.

"And then, if it turns out to be him, what will you do?"

Chen Chuan seemed to take it for granted.

"Of course we have to continue investigating. Evil spirits are not good things. And don't forget who this evil spirit is related to. Blood Nineteen was a great demon from a hundred years ago. If there really is such a person who harms the world again, don't you and I have to take responsibility?"

"In order to prevent such a disaster from happening, we must investigate this person thoroughly."

Ye Xuan spoke with great confidence and righteousness, not noticing that Chen Chuan beside him seemed to have his own little thoughts. Although he said nothing, there was darkness in his eyes, and he was even distracted by it.

It was not until Ye Xuan touched him that he seemed to come back to his senses.

"Why did you suddenly become distracted? Do you think what I said is wrong?"

"Oh it's all right."

Chen Chuan concealed the strangeness in his eyes and pretended nothing had happened.

"I was just thinking about what you said, Ye Xuan. Your guess is not unreasonable. However, after that battle between humans and demons, to be honest, I have a good impression of that boy. I always feel that he should not be that kind of person and should not be related to Blood Nineteen."

"Think about it carefully. If he really has a connection with that big devil, why would he come to help the human race, and how would he resist the demons? Aren't we being too arbitrary about this matter?"

Chen Chuan had a good impression of him and didn't want to convict him easily.

Ye Xuan seemed to want to say something, but in the end it turned into a helpless sigh.

"I know you always admire the younger generation, but Chen Chuan, this is no joke. This involves Blood Nineteen, the great demon sealed a hundred years ago. We can't just judge based on impression."

"And my considerations are not unreasonable, are they?"

Chen Chuan was silent for a while, but he couldn't refute anything about this matter.

Ye Xuan stroked his chin, thought about it carefully, and then asked Chen Chuan.

"How about this, Chen Chuan, tomorrow you and I will visit the City Lord's Mansion. Since we can't argue the truth, why don't we go and take a look."

Chen Chuan thought about it for a moment and quickly agreed to this matter.

"Well, you're right, let's do it."

Instead of guessing here, it would be better for them to go meet the brat in person, take a quick look at him and test him, maybe they can get a result.

Ye Xuan seemed a little worried, but Chen Chuan was very open-minded.

"Since you already have an idea, don't be so sad. Even if it is really Blood Nineteen, so what? If you can seal it once, you can also seal it a second time and a third time. It's just a defeated enemy. I don't know what you have to worry about. When you go to see him tomorrow, you should be relieved."

Ye Xuan smiled bitterly, feeling that she might not be able to relax so quickly.

The next day, the two quickly arrived at the City Lord's Mansion.

After a brief greeting, they stated the purpose of their visit.

I want to see Lodan.

When the city lord saw that they were two powerful men, and thought of what Luodan said to him before he left, he couldn't help but mutter in his heart.

Could the trouble he caused be these two?

The city lord was making a guess in his mind and accidentally lost his focus.

Fortunately, he still remembered who he was meeting and reacted quickly.

"I wonder what you two want to talk to Luo Dan about?"

Ye Xuan and Chen Chuan looked at each other, neither of them gave a direct answer.

"Just something I want to ask, it's nothing big."

"Oh."

The city lord nodded, but in fact he didn't believe it at all and became alert.

It must be no small matter for two such powerful men to ask to see Luodan by name.

The city lord stroked his chin, thinking hard about countermeasures, and soon came up with an idea.

He had no choice but to look at the two of them with an apologetic look on his face.

"I'm sorry, two great masters. Luo Dan said goodbye to me a few days ago, and now I don't know where he has gone."

"What, he's gone?"

When they heard the news, they were both shocked, and Ye Xuan's eyes flashed with a deep look.

Then asked again.

"Then Lord, did Luo Dan say where he was going?"

The city lord shook his head.

"I don't know about that. He didn't mention it. I don't know."

Seeing that they could not get any information out of the city lord, they both felt a little disappointed. They did not argue any further and left quickly.

"We understand. We will leave first. If the city lord knows the whereabouts of Luo Dan, please tell us as soon as possible. The two of us will not treat the city lord unfairly."

"Yes, yes, I know. If I knew any news, I would tell you everything I know."

Seeing that the other party's attitude was very sincere, the two did not make things difficult for him.

Soon, the two left side by side.

The city lord then patted his chest, sat back in his seat and breathed a long sigh of relief.

"Brother Luodan, I have saved your life. The rest depends on your luck."

He could hide it for a while, but only for a while.

I hope Luodan can turn danger into safety.

On the other side, after Chen Chuan and Ye Xuan went out, they both looked unhappy.

Chen Chuan muttered to himself.

"I didn't expect him to go out at this time. Ye Xuan, do you think he heard some news?"

After thinking seriously for a while, Ye Xuan shook his head.

"No, we tracked down the evil spirit on a whim. It's impossible for him to know it all of a sudden. However, it's not normal for him to live well and suddenly leave. Maybe he has something to hide."

At this time, two soldiers walked past them, talking and laughing.

"Have you heard that Captain Luodan's younger brother Pei Sheng has made a breakthrough? I heard that it was because of Captain Luodan's elixirs. Oh, it's such a blessing to have such a captain. I also want to be his younger brother so that I can have endless elixirs."

"You're dreaming. Pei Sheng is a favored child after all. Who are you? Even if you take the initiative to approach him, he may not be interested in you."

The two people walked along while disparaging each other without saying anything nice.

Chen Chuan and Ye Xuan exchanged glances.

Chen Chuan stepped forward and stopped the man.

"Who is Pei Sheng you were talking about just now? Is he Luo Dan's younger brother?"

Because the pressure from the man in front of them was too terrifying, the two of them were instantly trembling with fear.

One of them replied in a trembling voice. "Sir, yes, Pei Sheng lives in the third house on the left. He is indeed Luo Dan's younger brother. Everyone has spread this rumor, and Pei Sheng himself has acquiesced to it. We dare not say a single false statement."

Chen Chuan then turned around and looked at Ye Xuan, and Ye Xuan also gave him a look.

The two of them worked in perfect harmony, let go of the soldiers, and walked towards Pei Sheng's residence.

After a while, we arrived at this simple residence.

At that time, Pei Sheng had finished his training and was coming out of the room.

But I didn't expect to see two big shots appear in front of me as soon as I came out.

"S-lord?"

Pei Sheng recognized both of them. They were the great heroes here, and were also people transferred from the upper realm by the emperor. They were masters at the Saint King level.

I was just a small fry in front of them, so naturally I didn't dare to act presumptuously.

"Get up, we have something to ask you, come in and sit down."

Ye Xuan seems to be gentle to others, but his smile actually has no warmth.

Of course Pei Sheng didn't dare to resist them and followed them into his room.

"My humble abode is simple, please forgive me for not being offended."

The two nodded. They didn't really care about these material possessions.

"I wonder what the two gentlemen want from me. Is there anything I can do to help you?"

His humble attitude did indeed make the two of them let down their guard.

The two of them then began to exchange words.

"Pei Sheng, I heard that you are the younger brother of Luo Dan, the Luo Dan who played a big role in the war between humans and demons. You should know a little about this person."

Hearing them suddenly mention the captain, it was obvious that they were coming for the captain.

Pei Sheng's eyes moved, but he quickly regained his composure.

"Yes, but I don't know him too well. I just admire the captain's character, so I volunteered to follow him. I haven't known the captain for a long time, so I don't know much."

The two exchanged glances again, but did not say anything.

Ye Xuan asked again.

"Then let me ask you, how did he defeat the powerful demon? He guarded the East Gate by himself for such a long time. Do you know how he did it?"

"The captain had to protect us..."

Pei Sheng almost let the cat out of the bag, but looking at the sharp looks in the eyes of the two people in front of him, he seemed to come to his senses, swallowed back his previous words, and said.

"We came here from behind, so we don't know what happened in front. When we arrived, the captain was already dying. If the two great masters hadn't intervened in time, we would have died there."

His words were ambiguous, but he didn't mention anything about Luodan.

I didn't get anything out of him, and there was nothing wrong with the other party's answer.

Even though Ye Xuan felt something was wrong, he had no choice but to leave in the end.

After the two men left, Pei Sheng did not dare to act rashly at first until he was sure that they had really left without any stay.

He then found Luodan according to the contact information and informed him of the investigation.

"Captain, those two powerful men are obviously coming for you, and they also want to ask me how you deal with the demons. I think they are interested in your abilities. You must be careful. They have already found the City Lord's Mansion, and I'm afraid they won't give up so easily."

Pei Sheng’s worries were not unreasonable. What’s more, Luo Dan himself knew that he was indeed hiding a big secret, and this secret must never be known to those people.

If I'm not mistaken, those two people are most likely here for this purpose.

He wasn't surprised.

But I still feel that things are becoming troublesome.

"Okay, I understand, Pei Sheng, I will be careful."

He patted him on the shoulder, and the atmosphere between them became much better.

The two finally met and planned to go out for a walk, and Xiaobai followed.

As the three of them were strolling around, they saw a marriage proposal advertisement not far away.

"There's a wedding party going on ahead. Do you want to go and have a look? Just watch the fun."

Xiaobai seemed extremely happy, with an expectant and curious look on his face.

"Oh? Throwing a ball to find a bride? That sounds interesting. I've never seen anything like that. Master, we must go and see it."

Seeing so many people gathered in front, Luo Dan also wanted to join in the fun.

This situation is indeed quite lively, but I don't know how many people come here to gossip, and how many people really want to grab the hydrangea. But no matter what, there are many people and it's lively, and everyone is happy to watch.

"Okay, then we'll go take a look, but it's fine to just take a look. If you don't mean to, don't just reach out and take it. Taking the hydrangea means something special. Pei Sheng, if you're interested in that girl, you can give it a try. Xiaobai, you don't really understand the order of the world, so I'll tell you something extra about this. You can't reach out."

Pei Sheng is fine, he is a good man and also a city guard.

Worthy of a rich girl.

Xiaobai is different. The little fox doesn't understand much about human affairs. If he sees the hydrangea out of curiosity or because of his fox nature, he will try to grab it. If he gets it, the meaning of it will be completely different. It will ruin the girl's life.

Therefore, Luo Dan gave her many warnings and instructions, fearing that she might do something bad.

Xiaobai was not stupid. After hearing his instructions, he quickly understood.

"Yes, Master, don't worry, I'm not that curious, and I won't marry a woman, so I won't just lay my hands on her."

She waved her hands, seeming a little speechless about her master's excessive concern.

Then, a group of three people moved forward.

"Wow, there are so many people here. It's so crowded."

Xiaobai sighed, unable to squeeze in, and quickly backed away.

Someone heard this and turned around to gossip with them.

"Yes, I heard that this family is a well-known wealthy family in the city, the Zhou family. Miss Zhou is getting married, and I don't know how much dowry she brings with her. I don't know how many people are coming for this huge dowry. Moreover, if you can become Mr. Zhou's son-in-law, you will definitely be promoted in the future. Who wouldn't want to take advantage of this?"

"Hey, why is there a girl here? Is she here with your brother?"

The old man glanced at Xiaobai, then glanced at Luodan behind him. Without thinking much, he simply thought Xiaobai was his sister.

But Xiaobai was a little unhappy, and he stepped forward and held Luodan's arm.

"No, he's not some brother, he's my master."

The old man's eyes widened and he looked at the two of them in horror.

"Lord, master?"

Luo Dan knew that he had misunderstood, and the corners of his mouth twitched. Just as he was about to explain, the person in front of him spoke first.

"Alas, I am really old. I didn't expect that young people nowadays would play so wildly. Sir, it's not enough that you already have a concubine, now you want to snatch the daughter of the Zhou family. You really want to enjoy the good fortune of having concubines on both sides, but there are so many people here, I am not sure you can fulfill your wish."

Obviously, the old man treated Luodan as a playboy. He had a lot of concubines at home, and he wanted to marry a girl from a good family as his wife.

And she also had her eyes on the Zhou family's generous dowry, which made her look a bit like Chen Shimei. (End of this chapter)
