After becoming the prince of the demon clan, the beautiful master pampers him every day

Chapter 103 Late Night Chat

Chu Xinglan rode on the clouded leopard's back with ease and went to Xu Zhuo's residence first. However, he couldn't find him after looking around.

He had no choice but to go find Chen Xiu instead.

He did not go to Chen Xiu's residence, but went directly to the place where business was handled. Sure enough, Chen Xiu was still immersed in a pile of documents, busy and exhausted.

I was a little surprised to see him coming.

"When did you come back?"

Chu Xinglan jumped off the clouded leopard's back and let it lie outside the hall. He walked in and found a place to sit down.

She just rested her chin on her hand and looked at Chen Xiu eagerly.

"I came back this morning. Have you been busy lately?"

Chen Xiu rubbed his brows and said, "There are a lot of things to do, and they all need to be dealt with urgently. In addition, the exchange competition is about to begin. This time, our Cangqiong Mountain is hosting, so there are even more things to do."

Chu Xinglan looked at the dark circles under his eyes and felt very sympathetic. After thinking for a while, he said, "Should I ask Song Ling and the others to come over and help?"

Chen Xiu smiled, leaned over and rubbed his head, "It's okay, they are also going to participate in the exchange competition this time, so they have to prepare well."

"Did you have a good time out there?"

"It's pretty good. Cang Yun is a little different from what I thought. I quite like him."

"..."

The two chatted for a while, and Chen Xiu felt that his fatigue was relieved a lot. Then he straightened his expression and looked at Chu Xinglan.

"Tell me, what do you want from me? You never come to me for no reason."

Chu Xinglan felt a little embarrassed by what he said. Ever since he met Chen Xiu, it was always Chen Xiu who took care of him more, and he seemed to only come to Chen Xiu when he had something to do. It sounded a bit like a scumbag.

Now it’s a bit difficult to say that I really came to him to do something.

Chen Xiu saw his embarrassment and smiled gently: "I am so happy that you can think of me when you have something to do. Go ahead."

Chu Xinglan hesitated for a long time, but he really wanted to find Xu Zhuo, and then find his master, so he spoke awkwardly.

"Where did Xu Zhuo go to retreat? I went to look for him but couldn't find him."

Chen Xiu stared at him for a while, as if hesitating about something, but when he saw Chu Xinglan's expectant eyes, the words on his lips could not come out.

With a sigh, Chen Xiu casually set up a barrier and then spoke.

"Master is not in seclusion. He went to the border of the demon clan to inspect. Something went wrong in Anmo City."

Chu Xinglan had guessed it, but he didn't expect that Xu Zhuo was actually not there.

Since Chen Xiu had already spoken, he didn't think of hiding it from him anymore, especially not explaining it clearly. He was also afraid that Chu Xinglan would not realize the seriousness of the problem and something would go wrong.

I talked about the recent events of the Shangguan family and Liwan City in Yecheng.

"The ancestor sent back a message saying that the demon tribe had discovered the evil spirit. The internal strife among the demon tribe this time was probably caused by the demon tribe, so Master was worried and went to investigate."

"As for the situation in the sect, it is still unclear, so we concealed the whereabouts of our master."

When the incident happened in Yecheng, Chu Xinglan happened to be there at that time. Seeing that Chen Xiuwei was overwhelmed by the matter, he thought for a moment and spoke.

"Have you heard of the Divine Will Gate?"

Chen Xiu frowned and thought for a while, then shook his head: "I haven't heard of it. Is it also a cultivation sect?"

Chu Xinglan talked about the situation of Lin Jiamu and others at that time, and also talked about the past of Cangyun Kingdom.

Chen Xiu tapped his slender index finger on the table: "You mean, the Divine Will Sect might be colluding with the demons?"

Chu Xinglan shook his head: "I don't know the details. I always thought they were cooperating with the black-robed man, which would explain the matter of the Shangguan family master. But since Master mentioned the demon clan, maybe there is a connection between them that we don't know about."

Originally, the man in black robe was enough to give Chen Xiu a headache, and now that he learned that there was also a Shenyi Sect, Chen Xiu felt extremely anxious.

Especially with the demon clan eyeing him covetously behind the scenes, internal and external troubles, Chen Xiu felt suffocated.

Chu Xinglan noticed his fatigue and said comfortingly, "Don't think too much about it for now. There's no rush for this matter. I'll pay more attention to it later."

Chen Xiu sighed and said weakly, "I know this can't be rushed. Those people will eventually reveal their true colors."

"What I am worried about now is that something unexpected will happen during this exchange competition. The participants must be the elites of various families and sects. It is not easy to get so many people together."

"That shouldn't be the case. It's not just the disciples who come to the exchange competition. The masters and elders of each sect will definitely come along. Even if they want to cause trouble, they have to consider whether it's worthwhile."

"And if it were me, I would probably choose this time to steal the house."

Chu Xinglan felt that although it would be easier to achieve the desired effect by causing trouble directly on the field, it was obviously not cost-effective, as those family heads would not be pushovers if a real fight broke out.

"What you said makes sense, but we have to be on guard. This competition is not the usual arena format, but in a secret realm. You have to know that secret realms usually have cultivation restrictions."

"Once they find a way to get in, the disciples inside will have no ability to resist. By the time the elders come to rescue them, I'm afraid there will be a river of blood."

"The elite disciples suffered heavy casualties, and the cultivation world would be cut off. That would be really troublesome."

The more Chen Xiu analyzed, the more anxious he became. He immediately took out a communication jade slip and planned to send a message to all the peak masters and elders in Cangkong, convening everyone to hold an emergency meeting.

Chu Xinglan raised his hand to stop him: "Chen Xiu, you are under too much pressure and too tired now. Take a day off and talk about it tomorrow morning."

He felt that Chen Xiu's entire condition was not right, and the middle of the night was not a good time to discuss things.

What's more, according to Chen Xiu, Cangqiong Mountain is not an iron bucket, so they must not lose their minds.

He pulled out his tea set from the bell, quickly boiled water, poured a cup and pushed it in front of Chen Xiu.

The dense spiritual energy gave Chen Xiu a boost and made his mind clearer.

He picked up the teacup, took a sip, and raised his eyebrows.

"The good tea that the ancestors gave you?"

Chu Xinglan smiled: "Well, it's not bad, right? If you like it, I'll save some for you later. Drinking a little can help you relax when you're tired."

Chen Xiu took two more sips, his emotions calmed down, and he waved at Chu Xinglan.

"No, this tea is too precious. Keep it for yourself. I don't like tea either."

"Besides, even if I accept it, I can't drink it. My master has been thinking about this tea for a long time."

Chu Xinglan knew Xu Zhuo's character, so he didn't force him. He just said, "Then come find me when you want to drink. I'll give you as much as you want."

Chen Xiu sighed and said with some emotion: "When I took over these matters before, I didn't think they were difficult. Master is just lazy."

"Now that Master is gone, I realize that it was because I had Master's support that I didn't have to worry about anything."

"Master is not here for this exchange competition, and I have too much responsibility on my shoulders. I am afraid that something might go wrong. But fortunately, our ancestors are still here, so there won't be any big trouble."

Chu Xinglan was originally sipping his tea leisurely, but when he heard the last sentence, he paused and said sadly.

"Chen Xiu, my master is missing."
