Chapter 877 - 473: The Bronze Coffin!

"This voice..."

Jiang Qi suddenly opened his eyes and jumped up from the recliner.

He saw Chen Xuan smiling at him.

"Lord Xuan King!"

He exclaimed in shock and then immediately plastered a smile on his face, "Forgive me, my lord, I didn’t know it was you."

"You’re really quite leisurely, aren’t you?"

"Not at all, you have no idea, my days haven’t been so easy lately."

Jiang Qi looked distressed, not sure how long he could continue as the steward of Molan Mansion.

"Your days not easy?!"

Chen Xuan smiled secretly.

Although he didn’t handle these matters, it was clear that his Divine Walk Trading Company had taken a lot of business from Dark Moon.

"Yeah, don’t know where this Divine Walk Trading Company sprang from, damn it, it’s like a stick in the mud."

Jiang Qi grumbled indignantly, wanting to continue cursing but was interrupted by Chen Xuan.

Damn, calling Divine Walk Trading Company a stick in the mud right in front of him, such a fool.

"You’re going to let me stand here?"

"Ah—"

"How could I, please, my lord, just so happens I got a batch of good tea, let me brew a pot for you to taste."

Saying this, he extended his hand and invited Chen Xuan to the back yard.

...

In the small backyard house.

Chen Xuan and Jiang Qi sat facing each other, with a stove beside them boiling water.

"Please wait a bit, my lord."

"No rush."

Chen Xuan said calmly.

"I wonder if Lord Xuan King knows anything about this Divine Walk Trading Company?"

Jiang Qi took the opportunity to ask.

He had investigated for so long and even used Dark Moon’s resources, but still couldn’t find out who was behind Divine Walk Trading Company.

The only clue was a possible connection to the Three Judicial Departments.

And that wasn’t even confirmed.

But, based on his understanding of the Three Judicial Departments... this was most likely false.

The Three Judicial Departments had never done such things.

"I’ve been preparing for the Burial Grounds, where would I find the time to handle such matters."

Chen Xuan replied indifferently.

But inside, he was laughing heartily.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Qi looked disappointed, surprised that even he didn’t know which force was behind Divine Walk Trading Company.

So mysterious.

"Whoa whoa whoa..."

Just then, the kettle made a noise, seeing this, Jiang Qi immediately stood up, opened a wooden cylinder, scooped tea leaves with a small spoon, and placed them in a teacup.

He poured boiling water in.

Then respectfully placed it in front of Chen Xuan, "Please, my lord!"

"Hmm!"

Chen Xuan nodded slightly, picked up the teacup, and took a sip, "Hmm... good, good, it’s top-grade spirit tea."

"If you like, my lord, you can take some back with you, just a small tribute from me."

Jiang Qi said with a smile.

Although he didn’t know why Chen Xuan had come, it was always good to offer a gift beforehand.

But Chen Xuan didn’t express anything.

Seeing this, Jiang Qi felt a bad feeling, and out of caution didn’t speak further.

Since he didn’t ask, Chen Xuan didn’t wait either, directly asking, "I came to ask whether Dark Moon knows where the Winged Tornado Dragon Beast is?"

Winged Tornado Dragon Beast!

Upon hearing this name, a flash of surprise passed through Jiang Qi’s eyes.

He remembered someone had come asking about the Winged Tornado Dragon Beast before.

Could that person have been sent by him?

"Not a friendly visitor."

Jiang Qi sighed internally, but hadn’t said anything before, and now definitely wouldn’t say anything.

Then he feigned ignorance, muttering softly, "Winged Tornado Dragon Beast... what kind of demon beast is that? I have no impression at all."

"Ha ha!"

Chen Xuan chuckled, staring at him, the little thing dared to play dumb in front of him.

He had been watching him all along, their powers differed greatly, even without using Telepathy, he could tell Jiang Qi was lying.

"My lord..."

Under his gaze, Jiang Qi felt uneasy, but couldn’t speak, really couldn’t, and could only muster up the courage to continue.

But... Chen Xuan directly interrupted him.

"I like honest people."

His tone was calm, showing no sign of anger or joy, but Jiang Qi felt enormous pressure suddenly appear.

It was making it difficult for him to breathe.

"My lord... I really don’t know."

When he said this, he felt as if all his energy had been drained.

"Alright!"

Chen Xuan nodded, then stood up to leave.

"You will tell me."

He said this with a smile, that smile made Jiang Qi’s heart chill.

"My lord..."

But at this moment, Chen Xuan pretended not to hear and directly walked out of the backyard, leaving Dark Moon.

"Damn it!"

Jiang Qi cursed internally, what was going on?

Why was he enquiring about the Winged Tornado Dragon Beast?

After leaving Dark Moon, Chen Xuan walked down the street.

He was sure Jiang Qi knew about the Winged Tornado Dragon Beast, but wasn’t willing to talk... likely due to concerns, even ones making Dark Moon cautious.

Actually, if he wanted an answer, he could just use Soul Search, but that was a last resort, using Soul Search casually wasn’t the norm.

And Jiang Qi’s status wasn’t low, likely having some defenses in his consciousness sea.

If he startled the snake in the grass, it wouldn’t be good.

But it doesn’t matter!

He had other methods.

If he doesn’t tell him, then Dark Moon won’t be doing business in Molan Mansion.

"Hmph!"

....

Inside the Three Judicial Departments.

"You want me to order targeting Dark Moon Trading Company’s dealings in Molan Mansion?"

Ye Jinhong was shocked.

This suddenly came up, and then he made such a request.

Dark Moon wasn’t weak, even very strong, doing this would completely offend Dark Moon.

By then... it would be quite troublesome.

"Did Dark Moon offend you somehow? If it’s not something major, try not to do this!"

Ye Jinhong advised him sternly.

"Does the Three Judicial Departments perhaps fear Dark Moon?"
