The Peerless Emperor-Chapter 1431 - 1432: Zongyuan City

Capítulo 1431: Chapter 1432: Zongyuan City

There’s definitely a problem, but where exactly the problem lies…

In Lin Qian’s opinion, it’s probably a problem with the brain.

His steward at the City Lord Mansion abuses power on his own behalf, yet Lord Yuan Chu doesn’t even know.

How careless must one be to achieve such a mistake.

Then, Zhuge Ming on the side also spoke, explaining the situation in the mansion at the time.

After listening to Zhuge Ming’s description, Yuan Chu’s face was full of anger: “This beast, how dare he do such things.”

“He’s merely a steward, yet dare to abuse power like this!”

Clearly, Yuan Chu also felt immense anger and was deeply resentful of his steward’s actions.

Seeing Yuan Chu’s reaction, curiosity appeared in Lin Qian’s eyes.

He really wanted to know how Yuan Chu managed to be the City Lord when his subordinates were so out of control, and he was unaware?

Lin Qian then curiously inquired aloud.

As Yuan Chu explained, Lin Qian found it rather amusing.

This Yuan Chu is not from Yuan City; he’s from the Yuan family and was sent to this place by his father for training.

He had no intention to manage the city, so he casually found someone to act as a steward and focused only on his cultivation.

The original steward of the City Lord Mansion was cautious and diligent in managing the city at first.

But later, he became increasingly excessive, summoning guards if anyone dared oppose him, and each time, the City Lord permitted him to mobilize the guards.

According to the guard captain’s description and Yuan Chu’s own memory.

Lin Qian finally understood what was behind this bizarre situation.

The Yuan Chu before him was simply a family young master with a straightforward mind, only interested in cultivation, hardly bothering to think, acting purely on impulse.

When the steward came to report that someone looked down on their mansion, Yuan Chu would fly into a rage and command the steward to lead the guards to assert the dignity of the City Lord.

At the same time, he would caution not to wrongfully harm innocent people, or act recklessly.

However, each time, Yuan Chu merely advised them briefly and then went into secluded cultivation, neglecting everything else.

In his eyes, the steward of the mansion was merely someone handling his affairs, hardly worth considering.

People, not knowing this, assumed he was a second-in-command within the mansion, a figure as significant as a Prime Minister.

Hearing this, Lin Qian greatly admired Yuan Chu before him, realizing he was just a cultivation fanatic, ignoring everything else.

No wonder the steward of the City Lord Mansion could abuse power and bully others.

At this moment, the guard captain also realized the state of his City Lord, finding it both funny and exasperating.

Gradually, he recounted the ‘good deeds’ the steward had done in Yuan City over the years, one by one.

These so-called good deeds made Yuan Chu extremely furious, never expecting that due to his negligence, the people in the city were bullied by the steward to such an extent.

In this context, he also felt guilty inside; if it weren’t for his negligence, this situation wouldn’t have occurred.

Yuan Chu apologized to Lin Qian, inviting them to rest briefly in the City Lord Mansion and offering to host a banquet for them in the evening.

Given Yuan Chu’s actions, Lin Qian naturally felt it inappropriate to trouble him further, and he found Yuan Chu’s simple-mindedness somewhat interesting.

After staying in the City Lord Mansion, Yuan Chu also went to bathe and change clothes, tidying up his appearance, and then hosted a banquet for Lin Qian and the others.

To be honest, Lin Qian also regarded Yuan Chu more highly.

Though his fight with Xu Meng ended in a draw, engaging with himself several times, he’s no ordinary person.

Before entering the Ancient City, even those at the First Level of the Mixed Element Realm under the Upper Origin Immortal Emperor were easily slain by him.

However, Lin Qian knew that if Yuan Chu wanted to flee, he absolutely had a way to escape.

Only by having Sun Wukong cooperate to stop him would it be possible to slay him.

It shows that Yuan Chu is not only a cultivation fanatic but also possesses extraordinary combat prowess.

Within the same realm, individuals with such strength are something Lin Qian hasn’t seen for a long time.

Upon seeing it now, they explored many aspects of cultivation, such as the state of Martial Soul Bestial Transformation.

How to maximize one’s combat strength using Martial Soul Bestial Transformation to engage in battle.

Yuan Chu also shared his rich experiences, discussing the influences of Martial Soul Bestial Transformation on different conditions and environments, as well as the most suitable combat style after transformation.

Many insights benefited Lin Qian greatly, and Zhuge Ming on the side couldn’t wait to take notes.

These are precious materials that will have great use when documented.

Meanwhile, Yuan Chu was deeply intrigued by Lin Qian’s Twin Martial Souls and had numerous questions, eagerly asking out loud.

And the Twelve Soul Lights were unprecedented occurrences.

Lin Qian couldn’t elaborate and could only say it was an extraordinary talent.

However, he was able to see that when looking towards him, the other party’s gaze was filled with envy, as if they wished to possess such abilities.

For this cultivation fanatic far away, having such talents would be a dream come true.

After a few rounds of drinks, Yuan Chu suddenly appeared hesitant, his gaze towards Lin Qian filled with yearning and urgency, even his eyes were ablaze.

The person’s gaze made Lin Qian’s skin crawl, feeling utterly uncomfortable.

Ultimately unable to endure the other’s gaze, Lin Qian finally looked at him, hesitated for a while, and asked, “I wonder if Lord Yuan has anything in mind, feel free to tell.”

Seeing Lin Qian speak up, Yuan Chu’s expression also showed some embarrassment.

“This matter is truly a presumptuous request; I’m unsure how to say it,” at this moment, Yuan Chu’s expression was full of embarrassment, scratching his head.

“It’s okay, go ahead,” seeing the other behave this way, Lin Qian didn’t need to think to realize the person must have a request for him. 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝙚𝙬𝓮𝙗𝒏𝙤𝒗𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝒐𝓶

Thinking it over, Yuan Chu finally decided, “I wonder if you have time to accompany me to Zongyuan City?”

“Zongyuan City?” Hearing Yuan Chu’s request, Lin Qian showed a hint of confusion in his eyes, “What is this place Zongyuan City?”
