Chapter 277 Goodbye Li Chun
"How can you figure out something like this?" Lian Gou said angrily, "Maybe it's some perverted idea..."

Wei Xi took the two files away without hesitation—everything could be blamed on the rioting refugees. To make it more realistic, Wei Xi even kicked over some tables and chairs, deliberately making the place a mess.

After all this trouble, the sun was setting again. Qin Feng sent a soldier to report back to Cen Jin, saying only that it had been confirmed that the burning of the food in the martial arts training ground was the work of a cultivator, and that the details needed to be reported to the sect.

"Cen Jin is unlucky," Qin Feng said, wiping his hands as he walked. "With something like this happening in Bingzhou City, he's going to end up in trouble no matter how hard he tries."

"What are we going to eat tonight? We've been eating dry food for the past two days, and our mouths are almost like a dough bowl."

Things in Bingzhou City were coming to an end, and Qin Feng finally had time to reward himself and was thinking about eating roasted lamb.

Bingzhou City had suffered a disaster, but that didn't stop the powerful from living a luxurious life. These families either had a large number of talismans, or had servants to protect their homes, or even hired some Foundation Establishment cultivators as guards. Who would dare to risk their life?
The rioting refugees are just hungry, not stupid. They dare not provoke these local tyrants and will only target the common people.

In fact, if You Lanjing and Tu Mi had not taken the initiative to eliminate the thousands of defenders stationed in Bingzhou City, this group of refugees would not have been able to make a difference.

At the mention of eating, Lian Gou-yu got excited and urged, "There are still some restaurants on Bullfighting Street that are still open. They have people behind them, so those refugees didn't dare to move!"

Qin Feng was a spendthrift and didn't care about the money at all. He dragged two people to go to Bullfighting Street.

"No need," Wei Xi held Qin Feng, "someone's treating us tonight!"

Lian Gouqie felt a chill on his back and moved cautiously towards Wei Xi.

"Who is it?"

Wei Xi smiled with her eyebrows curved, but the corners of her mouth remained motionless. She patted Lian Gou's arm and said, "Didn't Li Chun want to see me? Where is he?"

……

Li Chun's right eyelid has been twitching since this morning. Hiding alone in his room, he began to think about the good things he had done recently:

The son of Minister Ling of Jucheng abducted a woman, and he suppressed the news, gaining a stronghold in Jucheng. The Guo family of Tingzhou framed the Wu family, and the account books were fabricated by the Richen Pavilion. Last month, a male member of the Wu family was beheaded, and the bloodstains in the vegetable market must still be there. A contraband transaction between the Huaixin faction and Chongxiao City was conducted through Fengyu Villa, with him acting as a broker. He had to keep a close eye on the news from that end...

Li Chun was counting on his fingers to try to eliminate the source of the trouble when the guard's voice came from outside the door, "Report to the young master, the cultivator named Lian Gou has brought two people here, saying that they want to make an appointment with you..."

The expensive wooden door was flung open with a bang. Li Chun's slightly nervous face peeked out, and his voice was a little shrill, "From the Qingcheng Sect? He brought two women with him?"

After receiving a positive response from his subordinates, Li Chun gave up the process of elimination.

It turned out that the biggest trouble had come. Li Chun rubbed his face twice and ordered: "Prepare the table and the dishes, decorate the warm room, don't serve the wine, and prepare three gifts."

Li Chun went downstairs with a smile on his face. His first glance inevitably fell on Qin Feng, whom he hadn't seen for two years. Then he regained his senses and turned his gaze to Wei Xi, who was a head shorter than him.

"The magpies are calling non-stop today. So it's Immortal Master Wei who has arrived! I'm sorry for not welcoming you! I'm sorry for not welcoming you!" Li Chun's welcoming and seeing-off skills were truly masterful. From his expression to his tone, he was full of joy. He almost kowtowed to Wei Xi. "Young Master Li is the noble one," Qin Feng said with a forced smile. "Even in Bingzhou City, to still hear the magpies calling, you're truly blessed."

"It has been two years since we parted ways with the Zhenhai Sect. I have been blessed with little luck and limited connections, and I am only where I am today thanks to the help given by Immortal Master Wei that day!"

Qin Feng and Li Chun chatted with each other as they carried the group into the warm room.

As soon as the door to the warm room closed, Qin Feng's face sank. "It's been two years since we last met. How come Young Master Li...ah...no, I should call him Pavilion Master Li. You've become even more talkative!"

Li Chun is a businessman, and a few verbal offenses are of no concern to him.

"Master Wei, it's been a long time since we last met." Li Chun knew very well who was the most difficult of the three and bowed to Wei Xi. "I'm lucky enough to be alive now. Thank you for the gift of [Spinning Clear]!"

As soon as they met, Wei Xi was shocked by Li Chun's current appearance: you know, when they first met in Sucheng, he was a handsome young man. In less than five years, his face became thin, his eyes drooped slightly, his complexion was pale, and he looked like a frightened bird.

"It's a consensual exchange," Wei Xi retracted his gaze, "I haven't congratulated Young Master Li yet, you got what you wanted!"

Li Chun smiled and said softly, "I got the [Spinning Clear], which is a great opportunity. Unfortunately, my junior brother was unlucky and was injured by the broken [Boundless], so he had no choice but to withdraw from the election..."

Wei Xi sneered inwardly: This guy was indeed responsible for the incident at Fengyu Villa. He must have been using his own methods to retaliate, tampering with his Infinity.

At that time, he had casually grabbed a handful of the Qing-Swallowing Beast's chin, but he actually let such a person endure until now. Wei Xi felt a little amusement in his heart, and his patience with others was replenished.

"The Zhenhai Sect's trial field has been completely abandoned. The [Fangqing] you brought with you is the last batch." Li Chun's smile was sincere, but the contrast with his current appearance was too tragic. "He got it for free!"

Wei Xi had no intention of getting involved in the internal strife at Fengyu Villa, so he forcefully changed the subject, "You're a businessman, so you naturally know why I'm here."

"The sand you asked me to track down is indeed related to the Dead Immortal City in the Western Regions. Several similar corpses appeared in the early years. However, in recent years, only a few cases have been found in the territory of Boluo Kingdom."

Their range of activities overlaps with that of the Hu people, no wonder they can use the Hu people to stir up the situation in Tangkou Town.

"As for Chi Pei from Linchuan Pavilion, he has been in seclusion and has not made any unusual movements. Here," Li Chun pulled out a stack of papers and handed them to Wei Xi, "this is the investigation report on Chi Pei."

Wei Xi took the papers, flipped through them roughly, and had a simple understanding of Chi Pei's life: the second son of a merchant family, he entered the Linchuan Pavilion at the age of five, and his activities were limited to Dongyi, and he had no connection with the Western Regions.

"This Chi Pei," Li Chun slapped his forehead and added, "is considered a promising talent in Linchuan Pavilion. From the head to the elders, they all hold him in high regard."

Then came the main event. Li Chun took out a thick stack of papers. "This is Coach Li's intelligence. He's quite influential, and it must have taken a lot of effort to gather this information."

"But I guess what you want to know most is this—Coach Li is Prince Yuzhang's man."
