The Whale in the Mountains

Chapter 469 Obstinate Chu Qingbai

Chapter 118 He Can Guide Me

In a hall of Yaowang Manor, Chen Xiao finally met Chu Luo's father, the Valley Master of Yaowang Valley, Chu Qingbai.

Chu Qingbai had the appearance of a benevolent elder, so it was no wonder that he had spared Chu Qingsong back then. He didn't look like someone who could make decisive decisions.

"Father, I'm back."

Chu Luo's demeanor and tone were very calm when he saw his father.

But Chen Xiao could see that he was obviously restraining himself, because his eyes were full of excited light.

The reason why he was like this was obviously related to his father.

Because Chu Qingbai was also obviously restraining his emotions.

Seeing this scene, Chen Xiao could only sigh in his heart, why bother? Isn't it tiring for father and son to be like this?

No wonder Chu Luo yearned for the outside world so much and was unwilling to return here. No one would want to live such a hypocritical life every day.

Pretending to be dignified is also a kind of hypocrisy.

"Luo'er, you shouldn't have come back."

Chu Qingbai shook his head with a wry smile.

From the moment Chen Xiao saw him, he saw a layer of sadness on his face.

Presumably, the matter of the life-and-death challenge had a great impact on him.

"Father, the valley is in trouble, how could I not come back? Father, this time you must not let my second uncle go. He is a wolf in sheep's clothing. Even if you let him go a hundred times, he will still seek revenge on you the hundred and first time!"

Chu Luo's face seemed to be covered with frost, and there was a hint of seriousness and solemnity between his eyebrows.

However, when Chu Qingbai heard his words, he said angrily: "Luo'er, you are not allowed to say that about your second uncle. No matter what he has done, he is still your second uncle."

Hearing this, Chen Xiao was speechless. Good fellow, this is really brotherly love!

Chu Luo was obviously very unhappy. Just as he was about to speak, he heard Chu Qingbai say: "Moreover, this time your second uncle is well prepared, and Father may not be his opponent."

"Luo'er, listen to me. After tonight, you must leave Yaowang Valley with Xiao'e early tomorrow morning and change your name and hide your identity from now on, and never come back! The affairs of Yaowang Valley must not be mentioned to anyone!"

Chu Luo flicked his sleeve and said in a loud voice: "Father, if I wanted to leave, I wouldn't have come back today. I know that if my second uncle becomes the Valley Master, he will definitely not let me go, but I swear to advance and retreat with my father!"

"Well said, Xiao Luo, Uncle Zhu really didn't misjudge you!"

At this moment, Zhu Xuanqing walked in, "Valley Master, I, Zhu Xuanqing, am also willing to advance and retreat with the Valley Master! So what if Chu Qingsong wins? We'll just kill him!"

Don't look at Zhu Xuanqing's immortal-like appearance, but he is actually very hostile and wants to kill people at every turn.

"Xuanqing, this is absolutely impossible. When Qingsong becomes the Valley Master, you should be loyal to him. The life-and-death challenge is a rule left by the ancestors, and it cannot be ruined in my hands!"

Chu Qingbai said righteously.

Chen Xiao was completely speechless. He didn't know whether to say he was pedantic or a fool…

"Valley Master, rules are dead, but people are alive! Moreover, according to the rules, you should have killed him back then. This second life-and-death challenge is not valid at all!"

Zhu Xuanqing persuaded earnestly.

"Xuanqing, don't say any more, I have made up my mind. If you don't want to be loyal to Qingsong, you can just take Luo'er and Xiao'e away, just treat it as the last time you help me."

Chu Qingbai was not only pedantic, but also very stubborn.

"Alas, Valley Master, what can I say about you..."

Zhu Xuanqing looked helpless.

Chu Luo said: "Uncle Zhu, don't worry, the competition has not yet begun, and it is not yet known who will win or lose. Although my second uncle has entered the Xiayin world, he may not necessarily be able to win my father."

"What's more, I have also invited Brother Chen to help. Brother Chen is an expert. He is the most admired person I have ever met in my life. I believe he will definitely have a way!"

Chu Luo introduced Chen Xiao to Chu Qingbai in a timely manner, "Father, this is my Brother Chen Xiao. He has taken good care of me when I was outside."

Chu Qingbai was slightly stunned. He originally thought that Chen Xiao was a servant or retainer that Chu Luo had taken in from outside. He never thought that Chu Luo would call him Big Brother?

He still knew his son very well. He was arrogant and did not服氣 anyone.

But he praised this person as 'the most admired person he has ever met in his life', which was enough to show that this person must have some ability.

"Mr. Chen, hello! Thank you for taking care of my son!"

Chu Qingbai cupped his fists at Chen Xiao.

"Valley Master is too polite."

As soon as Chen Xiao finished speaking, Zhu Xuanqing snorted: "Hmph, he is just an ordinary person from the secular world. How can he help? Xiao Luo, don't make trouble!"

"Uncle Zhu, you are just biased against my Brother Chen!"

Chu Luo said helplessly, "I'm telling you, Brother Chen is very capable. No matter what trouble he encounters, he will have a way!"

Zhu Xuanqing sneered: "What can he do? Tell me! Yaowang Valley is not like the outside world, and cannot tolerate any falsehood. It won't work if you just talk and don't practice!"

Chen Xiao glanced at Zhu Xuanqing coldly. It seemed that if he didn't show off his skills today, he wouldn't be able to shut his mouth!

"Actually, your problem is very simple, it's just a matter of the life-and-death challenge."

Chen Xiao said lightly, "As long as you win Chu Qingsong, the problem will be solved."

"Isn't that nonsense!"

Zhu Xuanqing glared directly, "If things were as simple as you said, would we still be worried about this?"

Chu Qingbai also shook his head and sighed: "My second brother's alchemy skills have already reached perfection. In fact, I was just lucky to be able to win him last time. Over the years, he has entered the Xiayin world and returned after completing his studies. His alchemy skills must have far surpassed mine. It is not easy to win him."

"Valley Master, why are you talking so much to this kid? He is just an ordinary person from the secular world. I'm afraid he has never even heard of the Xiayin world. It's a waste of words to say more!"

Zhu Xuanqing said impatiently.

Chu Luo glared at Zhu Xuanqing, his teeth itching with anger. If his father wasn't present, he would have already lost his temper!

But Chen Xiao was not angry. He smiled faintly and said: "I have indeed never heard of the Xiayin world before, but what is so difficult about the mere art of alchemy? As long as I give a few pointers, you will definitely be able to win him!"

As soon as these words came out, the three people present were all dumbfounded.

Chu Luo asked Chen Xiao for help, but he never thought that Chen Xiao would give them pointers on the art of alchemy.

"You, want to guide me in the art of alchemy?"

Chu Qingbai, such a benevolent elder, showed an incomprehensible expression on his face.

Looking at Chen Xiao, his eyes were a bit ridiculous.

"No, forget about you, the person I want to guide is him."

Chen Xiao waved his hand in disgust, then pointed at Chu Luo.

"Uncle Chu, don't blame me for being straightforward. I think your personality is not suitable for being the Valley Master, so if you ask me, you should abdicate as soon as possible!"
