Chen Yuan's arrival didn't cause any ripples. Except for a woman in white who sized Chen Yuan up and down, she quickly turned her gaze away.

They seemed to be discussing something.

Soon, a pot of wine was brought up by a waiter with a smiling face, saying:

"This sir, you've come to the right place. Our tavern's wine is all top-quality brew, you can't usually drink it outside."

"Is it really as good as you say?"

Chen Yuan was a bit skeptical. How good could the wine on this official road be?

Relying on the official road, they were practically making money lying down, not having to worry about customer traffic. Naturally, they wouldn't be so attentive.

"You'll know when you taste it, but I still want to remind you, don't drink too much, this wine is quite potent."

"Alright, I got it. Hurry up and bring the meat."

Chen Yuan waved his hand. He still had to continue his journey after the meal.

"Okay, please wait a moment."

The waiter flipped the rag on his shoulder and turned to urge the kitchen.

Pouring a bowl of wine, Chen Yuan took a small sip. It was only passable, far from as good as the waiter said.

Chen Yuan sipped the wine, squinting his eyes, pondering the things to come.

What was the Sky Survey Division like?

After joining the Sky Survey Division, how should he act?

How could he enter the Yang family's ancestral hall, as guided by the Qi Luck Altar?

In this world with strong clan concepts, generally families with a bit of strength guarded their ancestral halls very strictly, not opening them to outsiders except during ancestral sacrifices.

Outside the door, a middle-aged woman led a teenager who looked not very old into the tavern. A waiter waiting nearby immediately stepped forward to greet them flatteringly.

The teenager's eyes were indifferent, scanning the hall once, suddenly fixing his gaze on Chen Yuan, a faint gleam of heat flashing in his eyes.

Then, the teenager exchanged glances with the woman beside him, seemingly conveying some information.

"How about there?"

The middle-aged woman pointed in Chen Yuan's direction with a somewhat shrill voice.

The waiter quickly said:

"Sir, there are still seats upstairs, that seat is occupied."

The middle-aged woman glanced at him and threw him a piece of silver:

"Any problems?"

The waiter hesitated, but after looking at Chen Yuan's back and the middle-aged woman's unfriendly eyes, he finally accepted the silver and quickly retreated.

The middle-aged woman led the teenager, slowly came to Chen Yuan, and said very kindly:

"This young master, there are no empty seats downstairs, can we..."

Chen Yuan frowned, somewhat displeased:

"If there are no empty seats downstairs, there are upstairs. I don't like to sit with others."

Chen Yuan refused firmly. In this situation, if he agreed, there might be trouble later.

The middle-aged woman's face stiffened slightly. She didn't expect this kid to refuse so strongly. After exchanging a glance with the teenager beside her, she sat down directly:

"Young master, don't be so unreasonable. My son and I just want to have a simple meal."

Chen Yuan put down his chopsticks and looked at her squarely:

"So, what's the difference between upstairs and downstairs?"

"You..."

The teenager's eyes flickered, and he directly reached out to grab the package Chen Yuan had placed aside.

"Get out!"

Chen Yuan furrowed his brows and exerted force with his foot, directly kicking the teenager back several steps, causing him to fall to the ground.

"What are you doing?"

The middle-aged woman immediately cried out in shock and anger.

"Didn't you see what I'm doing?"

Chen Yuan stared at the person in front of him.

It was definitely not as simple as coming up for a meal. Although he had his back turned, he could feel that they were coming for him. Otherwise, why wouldn't they go upstairs where there were empty seats?

There must be some purpose!

The middle-aged woman helped the teenager up and glared at Chen Yuan:

"He's just a child!"

"Even if he's a rogue, what does that have to do with me? If you have any purpose, just say it." Chen Yuan slowly reached out and grasped the hilt of his knife.

The two people's quarrel immediately attracted the attention of everyone in the tavern.

Several burly men who had been drinking and chatting exchanged glances and slowly stood up.

The young men in white clothes at the other table also turned their attention to them. One of the women immediately wanted to get up and say something, but was held down by an older man.

He slowly shook his head at her, signaling her not to cause trouble.

Many inexperienced newcomers to the Jianghu died because of meddling.

"Hey, brother, well done."

One of the burly men who was slowly approaching smiled at Chen Yuan.

"Oh?"

Chen Yuan raised an eyebrow. He thought these people couldn't stand him bullying the weak and wanted to help, but how come it didn't seem to follow the usual routine?

"Green Demon, your disguise is really fast."

The leading man looked at the teenager beside the woman with a cold glint in his eyes.

Chen Yuan sized them up and down. They were indeed burly, each holding a nine-ring broadsword. The leading man had some fine stubble on his face and deep eyes.

They seemed to be here specifically for this teenager.

The woman panicked and quickly looked at the person beside her.

"Who are you?"

The teenager spoke for the first time, his voice unusually hoarse, like dry bark rubbing together, his eyes gradually turning red.

"Humph, a month ago, my brother was killed by you. The four of us brothers are here to take revenge. It's just a pity that we've been wandering around this tavern for more than half a month and haven't seen you.

I didn't expect you to show up today!"

Chen Yuan narrowed his eyes. His guess was correct, these two guys were indeed not that simple. The only thing he didn't understand now was why they were targeting him?

"A month ago... I killed quite a few people, can't remember."

The Green Demon tilted his head slightly, a sneer on his lips.

Then, he reached out and suddenly tore at his chin.

"Rip."

A human skin was torn off, revealing a somewhat hideous face.

The skin on his face was unusually wrinkled, like an old man, with sunken eyes and a scar deep enough to see the bone at the corner of his mouth.

"Humph, irrelevant people leave. Today, I will tear this demon apart alive!"

The leading burly man flexed his arms, and his body instantly swelled up a bit, his clothes being torn apart because they couldn't hold it.

The diners hurriedly fled the tavern, fearing being implicated.

The young woman who wanted to help earlier had a somewhat red face, seeming to realize that she had almost wronged a good person. Several of them also stood up, preparing to leave.

"Today, no one can leave!"

The Green Demon's eyes flashed coldly, his eyes revealing killing intent, and he directly grabbed the table Chen Yuan was eating at and threw it at the tavern door, blocking the exit for everyone. Some people ran to the second floor in a panic, while others trembled.

Chen Yuan frowned, this was simply crow-like behavior!

"Including you!"

The Green Demon's gaze suddenly turned to Chen Yuan, his eyes somewhat eager!

"Do I have a grudge against you?"

Chen Yuan looked down at the Green Demon in front of him.

If nothing else, he should be a dwarf.

"No grudge, but, you have something I want..." The Green Demon grinned.

Before approaching the tavern, the Green Demon had sensed an inexplicable attraction, as if it were summoning him. It was a bloodthirsty aura.

The demonic art he practiced required him to periodically devour the essence and blood of martial artists in order to suppress the backlash.

Therefore, he had an unusual sensitivity to the feeling of bloodlust.

On Chen Yuan's body, he felt the blood in his body seemed to be boiling, so he came to the tavern and discovered Chen Yuan at a glance.

Of course, he subconsciously thought that the package on Chen Yuan was attracting him, so he was cautiously probing just now.

"What is it?"

Chen Yuan frowned, somewhat puzzled.

He had quite a few good things on him, but none of them seemed to have moved this guy, right?

"You'll know when you die!"

The Green Demon chuckled.

"Humph, demon, die!"

The leading man swung his long sword straight at the Green Demon.

"Bang!"

The Green Demon moved nimbly underfoot. Due to his small size, he easily dodged this attack. The man's long sword instantly shattered a table beside him.

As soon as the leading man made a move, the three people behind him did not stand idle and immediately attacked.

The four people began to besiege from four directions.

One of them even turned to Chen Yuan and said:

"Little brother, you should step aside first to avoid hurting innocent people."

Chen Yuan nodded and cupped his hands, saying:

"Okay, thank you."

Since these guys had a blood feud with this dwarf, then there was no need for him to rush to take action. He then stepped aside and began to watch the battle.

"Boom!"

The four burly men attacked with wide, sweeping movements, their blades sharp. It didn't seem like Jianghu techniques, but more like...

Kung fu from the army.

Chen Yuan saw that the strength of each of these people was probably no weaker than Huang Xing, and they were exceptionally brave when they joined forces.

No wonder they dared to take action directly, they were also confident that their strength was stronger than the Green Demon.

But the reality was not so. The Green Demon's body moved extremely fast, and he seemed to be able to predict the movements of those people, appearing very relaxed.

"With just this little strength, you dare to intercept me?"

The Green Demon suddenly leaped up, his body quickly dodging behind one of them.

"You dwarf, if you have the guts, don't hide!"

One of them shouted in a low voice.

"What did you say?"

The Green Demon's eyes were bloodshot, and the killing intent around him solidified. He hated people calling him a dwarf the most, although that was the truth.

Those who had called him a dwarf in the past were either torn to pieces by him, or... eaten by him!

"I said, you are a dwarf, a three-foot-tall bastard!"

That person was not afraid at all and immediately scolded again.

"Bastard, die!"

The Green Demon moved his feet lightly, and both palms immediately turned greenish-black, grabbing towards the man's head.

The man was shocked and immediately raised his sword to block.

"Ding!"

The Green Demon's palm and the sword made a sound of metal clashing. The nine-ringed broadsword made of refined steel had some scratches on it, as if they were caused by another precious blade.

The man staggered, and the Green Demon stepped forward again, slamming a palm into his chest.

The small body contained a great power, knocking the strong man, who was more than twice his size, back several steps, with a trace of blood spilling from the corner of his mouth.

Looking at his clothes, a cyan-black palm print was imprinted on it!
