Peerless God of War

Chapter 81 Jiang Wen

"You are nothing more than a five-star military general now. Even if your cultivation is against the sky, it will take at least several years to break through to the Martial King Realm. The injuries on my body can delay it for up to a year. When you reach the Martial King Realm, I will be there early." He's dead, are you sure you're not joking?" The more he spoke, the more murderous intent he felt in his body. Fortunately, there were many people around, so the old man didn't dare to show off too much, for fear of attracting people.

"Well, you are right, I am now at the level of a five-star general!" Chen Xiao nodded slightly, but did not deny this.

"Then..." The old man opened his mouth to scold.

However, Chen Xiao was the first to speak: "When you heard the information about me two days ago, what was my cultivation level?"

"Nine-star martial artist!" The old man looked at Chen Xiao like a fool.

But as soon as the words came out, the old man's color changed instantly, he looked at Chen Xiao in horror, and exclaimed: "In two days, you were promoted from a martial artist to a five-star military general? No, this is impossible, you must have concealed it before With his cultivation level, no wonder he can defeat the people of the Fang family in Luocheng!" The old man frowned slightly.

"No, two days ago, I was indeed only at the martial arts level!" Chen Xiao said lightly.

Looking at the old man's growing mouth, Chen Xiao continued: "I am sure that I will advance to the realm of King Wu within three months, but why should I help you with treatment?"

After saying that, Chen Xiao showed a faint smile and looked at the red-faced old man in front of him.

Yes, why should the other party treat his injuries?

But when he saw the things on the stall, the old man's eyes suddenly lit up, and he said hurriedly: "You can choose these medicinal materials, if they are not enough, I still have them, as long as you can help me heal my wounds!"

"Not enough! In exchange for your life, this is not enough." Chen Xiao shook his head slightly.

The old man's face froze, but he opened his mouth, but did not say anything. He knew that these were indeed not enough, and the price required to hire a master who could help him treat his injuries was very expensive.

In the past few days, he has traveled to many places, and he has already spent almost all his money, otherwise he would not have gone to this border area to sell his own things to make a living.

Seeing the old man's frozen smile, Chen Xiao sighed secretly, then raised his head, looked at the old man and said, "I can save you, but the condition is that you need to be my subordinate for three years!"

"This is impossible!" The old man refused without even thinking.

After all, with his previous cultivation and arrogance, how could he bend down and become a servant to an ant whose cultivation level could not reach the level of a military general?

"Oh, forget it!" After saying that, Chen Xiao turned around and walked outside without stopping at all.

The old man immediately stayed where he was. He had no idea that Chen Xiao would be so straightforward in doing things, without being sloppy at all, and not even leaving any room for negotiation.

Although he had just refused, he was already ready to propose other conditions to Chen Xiao. However, now that everyone has left, what the heck is he talking about?

Seeing Chen Xiao walking further and further away, the old man was really anxious. He finally found someone who could treat his injuries. How could he just miss it like this?

After hurriedly packing up the things on the stall, the old man immediately chased Chen Xiao in the direction where he left.

Seeing that the old man was following him, Chen Xiao suddenly smiled, but he had no intention of stopping in his footsteps. He walked out of Wu City in a blink of an eye and walked directly back to the Chen family.

The old man was not slow either. Not long after he left Wu City, he caught up with Chen Xiao. He quickly stopped Chen Xiao and said, "My friend, the terms are negotiable, but being your servant for three years is really a bit difficult. It’s too much!”

"I didn't force you? Besides, I just asked you to be my subordinate. After three years, you will still be free. And I can guarantee that after three years, your cultivation will be at least above that of the Martial Emperor." , Of course, whether you are willing or not depends on you. I don’t mean to force you. To be honest, if my current cultivation level was not too low, I would not even say this, because your cultivation level is not that good. Not high, if I'm not mistaken, you are at most below the Seven-Star Martial King, right?" Chen Xiao stopped and his eyes stayed on the old man.

When Chen Xiao said these words, the old man's expression changed again, because Chen Xiao guessed correctly, his peak cultivation level was only a six-star Martial King, but if he tried to trick him into becoming a guard just by talking about it, it would be unavoidable. Still too naive.

However, he also didn't want to miss this opportunity. What if Chen Xiao was really sure?

Therefore, the old man was confused again.

What was before him now could be described as a thought of heaven and a thought of hell.

"Have you considered it? If you don't want to, just say it yourself!" After saying that, Chen Xiao walked around the old man and continued to walk forward.

The old man's expression changed again, he narrowed his eyes and glanced at Chen Xiao a few times, then gritted his teeth and said: "Okay, I promise you, but I also have a condition!"

"What?"

"In three years, I can be your subordinate and protect your safety, but if there is a life-threatening situation, I cannot protect you with all my strength!" Having said this, the old man looked at Chen Xiao nervously, as if thinking Let’s see Chen Xiao’s reaction.

However, Chen Xiao was noncommittal about this. He just nodded slightly and continued walking forward.

The old man was stunned for a moment, but he didn't expect that Chen Xiao actually agreed to this request. This also made the old man's resentment towards Chen Xiao slightly weakened.

The two of them walked in tandem and soon returned to Chen's house. On the way, Chen Xiao finally understood the general identity of the old man.

The old man's name is Jiang Wen. He is from another big city in Tianwu Country. It can be said that it was a complete accident that he came to Luocheng. As for the injuries on his body, according to Jiang Wen's own explanation, he was poisoned by an enemy's sneak attack, and it was a chronic poison that gradually eroded his true essence. In the past six months, he has been suppressing it with his true essence. Now he can't suppress it anymore, so he has to sell those things to exchange for medicinal materials to suppress his injuries.

As for whether what Jiang Wen said is true or false, Chen Xiao didn't care. He was confident that there were ways to control this person. What's more, even if Jiang Wen is very dangerous, so what? As long as he can use it for himself, that's fine.

Chen Xiao is not a good person. He can even be said to be both good and evil. As long as it is good for him, Chen Xiao will not refuse.

"You can rest in this courtyard. I have already said hello. No one will disturb you. I am in the courtyard next door. If you have any questions, you can come to me. I have something to do now. You can have a good rest first!" Chen Xiao pointed to an empty house in front of him, and then turned back to his house.

Outside the house, Qingxuan looked at the old man outside the door curiously, and then hurriedly followed Chen Xiao back.

Jiang Wen looked around, nodded with satisfaction, smiled slightly, and walked into the house and closed the door.
