Yang Chen stood up with his hands behind his back: “So, there is no need for to involve the City Lord’s Mansion.”
“But if you leave now, won’t it be equivalent to fleeing out of guilt? The person wasn’t killed by you, but if you escape, it would seem like it was you who killed him.” Jin Cheng said worriedly.
“If I don’t escape, am I not guilty?” Yang Chen’s expression was cold. He had seen the temperant of those major sects in his previous life. They were experts at bullying the weak and yielding to the strong. Would they care about a single human life when dealing with soone weaker than them?
Yang Chen said solemnly, “If I don’t leave, it will only make things difficult for the City Lord’s Mansion. Brother Jin Cheng, I am doing this because I consider you as a friend. If I didn’t consider you a friend, I would have left this ss for you to deal with. If I leave, the Ming Emperor Sect will have ten thousand reasons not to bother the City Lord’s Mansion.”
“But if you leave, the Ming Emperor Sect will definitely not let it go when they find out. You will be truly unsafe outside the City Lord’s Mansion.” Jin Cheng gritted his teeth.
“Haha, Brother Jin Cheng, have you forgotten my skills?” Yang Chen smiled slightly, “Don’t worry, since I want to leave, I must have my reasons. There are people who want to set up and I won’t let them get away with it. It will never be clear if I stay in Liaocheng. I’m curious to see who wants to harm .”
As he said this, Yang Chen’s voice grew colder, and his expression beca much more severe.
No one could be happy with a false label on their head.
Actually, Yang Chen hadn’t planned to stay in Liaocheng for long. He wouldn’t be able to expose the conspiracy of the Canghai Sect Leader, He Shangfeng, and fulfill He Yunxiao’s dying wish if he stayed in Liaocheng for the rest of his life. Leaving Liaocheng was sothing he had to do eventually, it’s just that the timing had been moved up a bit.
Jin Cheng was still uneasy, feeling extrely annoyed, “Yang Chen, I’m sorry. You stood up for my City Lord’s Mansion, but now that there’s trouble, we can’t protect you completely. Instead, we let you fall on the outside, suffering such unfair treatnt. I’m no better than a beast!”
Jin Cheng was filled with guilt right now.
If it weren’t for him, how would Yang Chen encounter such trouble?
But now, he had no solution for this matter.
Did he dare to say he could protect Yang Chen?
Let alone him, even his father couldn’t guarantee that.
His father was powerful at the Origin Martial Realm, but any elder from the Ming Emperor Sect was also at the Origin Martial Realm!
So among them even had experts in the True Martial Realm!
“Brother Jin Cheng, you don’t have to worry about it. This choice I make may not necessarily be a bad thing for .” Yang Chen smiled. “It’s just that after I leave, I hope that Brother Jin Cheng would help look after the Yang Family in the Great Wilderness.”
“Definitely!” Jin Cheng’s expression was determined: “Yang Chen, as an elder brother, I am already very sorry to you. I will not let the Yang family suffer any harm. Anyone who wants to touch the Yang family has to step over my body first! ”
Jin Cheng sighed and then thought of sothing: “Yang Chen, if you leave Liaocheng, the Ming Emperor Sect will definitely think that you are fleeing out of guilt, and they will never let you go. The Ming Emperor Sect has a huge influence, so if you want to find a place to settle down, I, as your elder brother, have a foolproof thod.”
“Oh, what thod?” Yang Chen was very curious.
If there was a foolproof plan, he didn’t mind listening to it.
“Very simple, the Genius Selection Competition held by North Mountain Main City!” Jin Cheng said.
“Genius Selection Competition, what is that?” Yang Chen was puzzled.
Jin Cheng explained carefully: “This is actually related to the turnover of the new and old generations in North Mountain Main City. North Mountain Main City governs North Mountain County and their recruitnt conditions are very strict. However, if they don’t recruit people, the good candidates will be taken by those sects over ti!”
“There was a period when North Mountain Main City experienced a generational gap in the turnover of the old and new generations. This made
North Mountain Main City realize the crisis, and since then, they have held the Genius Selection Competition once every hundred years under the na of the leader of North Mountain County!”
“Oh, there is such a thing?” Yang Chen beca interested.
Jin Cheng continued: “In this Genius Selection Competition, the first place winner will be rewarded with treasures personally provided by North Mountain Main City. The value of the treasures is incalculable. Of course, achieving outstanding results in the first few places is difficult, and most geniuses don’t aim for that. There are too many demon-level geniuses in the entire North
Mountain County.”
“So what are they aiming for?” Yang Chen couldn’t help asking.
“They’re aiming to be taken by those major sects.” Jin Cheng said with a thousand emotions: “This Genius Selection Competition consists of a basic competition, a knockout competition, and other various events. As long as one performs excellently in these events and catches the attention of the sects, they will naturally be accepted by the sects!”
At this point, Jin Cheng said solemnly, “If you perform well, you will attract many sects to fight for you. Each Genius Selection Competition has scenes of bloody battles among the sects. Those who rank higher will even be favored by the North Mountain Main City and the massive forces like the Canghai Sect. If you, Brother Yang Chen, shine in this competition, and are taken under the wing of a supre sect, the threat of the Ming Emperor Sect will be insignificant.”
“Aside from that, there are also so powerful loose cultivators who will try to take disciples in the selection competition and snatch good talents from North Mountain Main City.”
This made Yang Chen slightly stunned, and what Jin Cheng said did not seem like a bad way out.
Jin Cheng, feeling guilty, naturally did not want Yang Chen to suffer any loss:
“Moreover, anyone from North Mountain County can participate in this Genius Selection Competition regardless of their background. The only pity is that the age must be under eighteen, and one must have at least the first level of the Spirit Martial Realm in martial arts cultivation. Brother, you are past that age. Otherwise, even if I knew it would be humiliating, I would try to take a chance at the Genius Selection Competition. If I succeeded, I would be favored by the North Mountain Main City, and my father’s position in Liaocheng would be secure.”
Yang Chen said, “In that case, this Genius Selection Competition sounds like an unprecedented grand event, with any genius under eighteen who has entered the Spirit Martial Realm participating. The scale of this competition is quite astonishing. ”
“It’s an astonishing scale, and an equally great opportunity to rise to prominence. In the past, there was a genius who reached the ninth level of the Spirit Martial Realm at the age of eighteen, and both the North Mountain Main City and several major sects went crazy for him. The first level assessnt, the basic competition, will be held in two months! Brother Yang Chen, with your talent, you will definitely shine in this competition!” Jin Cheng said solemnly.
“Thank you, Brother Jin Cheng, for pointing out a way. I will definitely attend this basic competition.” Yang Chen said.
Hearing this, Jin Cheng took out a jade pendant from his bosom: “This token represents your origin in Liaocheng, and you will need it when you participate in the competition. Brother Yang Chen, I haven’t helped you much.” As he said this, Jin Cheng gritted his teeth, the guilt on his face unmistakable!
