School Beauty's Personal Crazy Young Master

Chapter 2020: Chapter 2106: Extorting the City Lord

In the following days, Chen Nan had nothing to do, so he wandered aimlessly around the city.

However, a strange event occurred in Yellow Wind City; several shops had items stolen in succession. Although some of the items weren’t particularly valuable, it still caused quite a stir in Yellow Wind City.

Lord Wei even dispatched city guards to wait at night to catch the culprit, but the thief easily succeeded and escaped.

In a room at the City Lord’s Mansion, Lord Wei had a chilling gaze. Beside him, a woman dressed in dark green, looking like a young matron, snuggled in his arms.

”City Lord, could the thefts in the city these past few days be related to that boy Chen Nan?” the woman asked, her breath carrying a scent of orchids.

Lord Wei shook his head, ”If he did it, he wouldn’t escape my eyes. The person is very mysterious, several times I almost caught her, but she managed to escape.”

”However, that boy Chen Nan is no easy character. His strength definitely qualifies him for the top three in this Nine Dragons Ascension,” a smile flickered in Lord Wei’s eyes.

To him, Chen Nan was a variable, but this variable could now be used for his own purposes, within his control.

”When he reaches the top three, it will be even harder for us to act.” The woman’s delicate jade hand hooked around Lord Wei’s neck, her eyes fixed steadily on him.

”How about I...” Her enchanting eyes were like silk, even Lord Wei, as the Supreme King, felt his heart sway.

”Green Concubine, you’re being naughty again. I’ve told you many times not to use your Fox Clan Bewitching Technique on me,” Lord Wei wore a helpless expression.

”I, Yixiao, am now at a loss in front of you. But this time you don’t need to intervene; I have arranged everything thoroughly. By then, the Kui Water Crystal and that Golden Phoenix Winged Spear will both be ours.”

Lord Wei showed a wicked smile. In the next moment, he carried the Green Concubine towards the large bed in his room. In mere breaths, the room was filled with romantic ambiance.

”Hehehe...”

That laughter echoed in the room, mixed with heavy panting sounds.

In another part of the City Lord’s Mansion, Chen Nan was looking at a list in his hand, with Man Wuji, Ye Yiyi, and the Black Feathered Chicken by his side.

”Chen Nan, this is the list of all the experts in the Nine Dragons Ascension, along with records of their strength and past behaviors. Look at it carefully; know your enemy, and you will be victorious in a hundred battles,” Man Wuji said beside him.

This list was procured from the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion; originally, every major city lord should have had a copy to discuss in advance, but there was no movement from Lord Wei’s side.

”Brother Man, do you think if we fall out with Lord Wei, Jiang Yan would step in to help me?” Chen Nan mused as he looked at the list, two strong figures on it had caught his attention.

One of them had been at the super Supreme level for thousands of years without progress, and the other was at the Sixth Layer Heaven, merely at the Peak of the Middle Stage Supreme.

Every three levels were a division of stages, and the Peak was said to be the existence of the Top Supreme.

”That I really don’t know, but Jiang Yan cultivates the Water and Fire Laws and follows his cultivation technique freely; his personality is influenced by his cultivation technique, so he seems to be a man of character.”

Man Wuji laughed, ”However, he, a Supreme King, has stayed in Yellow Wind City for a long time. There has to be a reason, either a loved one is here, or he has a scheme.”

”I didn’t think of that,” Chen Nan slapped his forehead. Jiang Yan’s strength was terrifying, and his black iron pot was extraordinary. If he was just acting freely and hanging out at the Heavenly Food Pavilion, that would probably be a facade.

”Alright, Chen Nan, it’s about time to meet with the other Eight Guardians in the city.” Man Wuji glanced into the distance, where eight other super Supremes of Yellow Wind City had gathered at the gate of the City Lord’s Mansion.

The next moment, Chen Nan’s figure moved, appearing at the gate of the City Lord’s Mansion.

The eight super Supremes saw him, their faces first showing strange expressions, quickly returning to normal.

The crowd waited for a quarter of an hour before Lord Wei and a woman dressed in dark green appeared.

”Ladies and gentlemen, today, representing my Yellow Wind City in the Nine Dragons Ascension, I toast to all of you with a fine wine to embolden your spirits,” Lord Wei said, waving his sleeve, and a jar of fine wine appeared in his hand.

”This King’s Liquid was given to me by the former city lord when I first came to the City Lord’s Mansion, and I couldn’t bring myself to drink it until now. This time, I’m bringing it out to entertain all of you,” Lord Wei said with a smile.

Chen Nan, among the crowd, took a sip of this King’s Liquid, immediately feeling his mouth watering and a wonderful sensation coursing through his body, causing a slight fluctuation in his cultivation.

”Great wine!” he thought to himself, then said with a smile, ”Lord Wei, without a great dish to pair with this fine wine, it’s not perfect.”

No sooner had he said this, a table descended from the void, and there appeared Jiang Yan. With a wave of his hand, a steaming array of dishes appeared in front of them, all exclusive to the Heavenly Food Pavilion.

The other eight super Supremes nearly drooled, and Chen Nan burst out laughing, grabbing a Nine-colored Deer leg and biting into it.

Seeing this, Lord Wei laughed, ”Little friend Chen, are you satisfied now? Brother Jiang has been in Yellow Wind City for a century and has never cooked outside the Heavenly Food Pavilion. This time is an exception for you.”

”Senior Jiang, you’re generous. Lord Wei, this... this wine is barely enough for a toothpick. I left in a hurry this time and didn’t bring any elixirs. If I had a few Six Infant Pills with me, our chances would be much better.”

Chen Nan grinned, feigning regret.

”Pff...”

One of the super Supremes nearly spat out his food, quickly covering his mouth.

Six Infant Pills... calling them that... Even the Six Infant Divine Pills are precious to a Supreme King. This kid has no idea how high the sky is. If it weren’t for the city lord’s instructions, they would have scolded him by now.

”Little friend Chen really knows how to joke around. Even I have only a few of the Six Infant Divine Pills. But since you need them, I’ll give you two,” Lord Wei said, his heart aching, but he decided to take the risk because how these divine pills were given would be how they would be taken back later.

Moreover, with interest, he thought, cursing Chen Nan again in his heart.

Yellow Wind City hasn’t seen the guardians extort the city lord in thousands of years, yet he couldn’t refuse. If Chen Nan refused to participate, Yellow Wind City would lose face among the Nine Great Ancient Cities.

Chen Nan accepted the two Six Infant Divine Pills given by Lord Wei and popped them into his mouth, chewing loudly to Lord Wei’s astonished face.

Then he burped and left with the other eight super Supremes.

”Pff...”

Behind him, Lord Wei’s face turned pale, blood spurting from the corner of his mouth. The Green Concubine licked her red lips as she watched Chen Nan’s retreating figure, as if seeing food.
