Volume One Blood Stained Storm Chapter 158 A Better Candidate

After another long journey, the team finally entered the scope of Jinyun City.

Si Yufan stood in the carriage, looking at the city in front of him that was shining under the afterglow of the sunset, and a look of surprise appeared in his eyes.

This city looks even more magnificent than Hanchuan City. Looking around, countless buildings are lined up, even if the sun is about to set, the queue at the city gate is still lined up.

The defenders at the door saw that it was the Cao family's team, so they checked it briefly and then let it go.

Si Yufan took a deep breath and was about to say goodbye to Cao Qiyan, but behind him, the loud roar of the soldiers guarding the city came.

"What city does not have spirit stones? Get out of here!"

Si Yufan looked back and saw a dirty mother and son blocked outside the door by soldiers guarding the city.

The mother and son begged hard, and the soldiers were not only completely indifferent, but even raised their spears and stabbed them down.

Si Yufan's face suddenly became cold and appeared in front of the city guarding soldiers like a ghost, and raised his hand to stop his attack: "Everyone has something to say, they are just civilians."

The soldiers guarding the city wanted to pull out the spear, but they never thought that Si Yufan's hands were like iron pliers, clenched the spear tightly, and could not move at all, so they could only threaten them.

"They want to go into the city without paying the fee. They just wanted to force themselves. We just did things according to the rules. Boy, don't meddle in other people's business!"

Si Yufan was about to let go of his palm, but Yu Guang saw the woman kneeling down at him and kowtowed heavily.

"Sir, I paid the fee, but they insisted that we didn't give it to you, and they also care that we wanted 200,000 spirit stones. How could we have so many spirit stones!"

Si Yufan's face was so gloomy that it seemed like water was about to drip out: "What the hell is going on?"

"They were dressed in tatters, who knew if they were spies from other countries!"

"No, we are civilians in the town. We originally planned to come to the city to join our relatives, but we encountered bandits robbing the road and killed my husband. The money to enter the city is already the last savings of our mother and son. Adults must make the decision for us!"

The woman cried heartbrokenly, and even the people queuing behind her could not bear it.

"We all saw that these guys took the spirit stone and refused to let go, and were preparing to kill people!"

"Shut up, do you still want to enter the city?" The soldiers guarding the city shouted, and everyone was immediately silent.

Si Yufan clenched his fists tightly, patted the soldiers guarding the city, and pulled the mother and son to walk towards the Cao family team that was coming.

"You and I go into the city with peace of mind. I see who dares to stop them!"

After saying that, the powerful pressure spread, which shocked the soldiers guarding the city to no avail. When Si Yufan passed by, the soldiers' foreheads dripped beads of sweat the size of beans, and their legs became weak and kneeled on the ground.

Si Yufan snorted coldly, took the mother and son to the Cao family's enthronement, took out a handful of spirit stone from the space bag, and stuffed it into the woman's palm.

"Life in the city is not easy, you can take the emergency first."

The woman waved her hand to refuse, but she couldn't resist Si Yufan, so she had to bow deeply to him, turn around and leave with the child.

Si Yufan looked at the backs of the mother and son and asked in a deep voice: "Miss Cao, the defenders of Jinyun City have always been like this?"

"It was not the case, but it has only become like this in recent years." Cao Qiyan sighed deeply and shook his head.

Si Yufan rubbed the tears mole on the corner of his eyes: "Jinyun City often has bandits?"

"It is also in recent years that it has become more and more arrogant."

Si Yufan nodded slightly, turned his head and bowed to Cao Qiyan: "Since I have arrived in Jinyun City, I will no longer continue to bother you."

"Young Master Han should have just arrived in Jinyun City. He is not familiar with the place. Why not just follow me to settle in the Cao family and let me do some landlords' friendship."

Si Yufan pondered for a moment and nodded slowly. Cao Qiyan was right. He had just come to Jinyun City and random investigations were easy to alert the enemy, which was not a wise move.

It’s better to go to Cao’s house to inquire about some information first, and prepare in advance.

Seeing Si Yufan nodding, even the Cao family worshipers were a little excited. Cao Qiyan gave the order and the team headed towards the Cao family in a mighty manner.

After walking along the street for dozens of minutes, a vast house came into view.

"Miss is back!"

The guards at the door of the Cao family called out when they saw the convoy. Not long after, there were riots in the yard. A middle-aged man with a tall figure ran over and asked anxiously when he saw Cao Qiyan:

"Qiyan, have you found the thing?"

"Don't worry, Father."

Cao Qiyan took out the box from the carriage and handed it to his father, then pointed at Si Yufan and Tangtang and said, "I met a bandit on the road. Fortunately, the son of Si and his friends helped him, otherwise it would be a big disaster."

After saying that, she said to Si Yufan again: "This is my father, Cao Wenhuan, the head of the Cao family."

Cao Wenhuan solemnly hugged Si Yufan: "Thank you very much for the two friends."

After saying that, he turned his head to Cao Qiyan and said, "Qiyan, let's arrange the best room for the two friends first. I'll ask someone to prepare dinner for you."

Cao Qiyan nodded and looked at Si Yufan with beautiful eyes: "Please follow me, Master Si."

Si Yufan bowed to Cao Wenhuan, disturbed him, and then took Tangtang and Cao Qiyan into the Cao family yard.

"Who is that boy? Why is the eldest lady so polite to him?"

"Yes, the young lady has never been so kind to outsiders."

The Cao family around him were particularly surprised to see Cao Qiyan's gentle attitude towards Si Yufan.

Many of them watched Cao Qiyan grow up, and knew her temperament clearly. They only felt that the scene in front of them was extremely incredible. Some young people even stared at Si Yufan with gritted teeth.

Become the target of public criticism as soon as he arrived?

Si Yufan shook his head with a wry smile, but Yu Guang looked between Cao Qiyan's eyebrows, revealing a bit of worry.

"What do Miss Cao have?" Si Yufan asked.

Cao Qiyan stopped, bit his red lips lightly, and hesitated for a long time and said slowly: "Actually, I took the risk to go out this time for my brother."

"What happened to your brother?" Si Yufan was puzzled.

Cao Qiyan sighed deeply: "A month ago, we had some conflicts with the Wei family. The heads of the two parties decided to send the juniors and middle-aged people to resolve the grudges through competitions, and the price was half of the property.

But a week ago, my brother was attacked while out. Although he saved his life, he was also severely injured and his life was in danger.

The enemy's methods are a bit special, and we can only find a medicinal material in the forest, so we can meet them."

Si Yufan suddenly realized that no wonder the Cao family leader was unwilling to exchange greetings when he saw his daughter come back. It turned out that there was a reason for this.

"Don't worry, your brother will definitely recover from a lucky appearance in heaven."

Cao Qiyan nodded, stopped in a relatively quiet independent courtyard, and opened the door: "The guest room is here. If the company master wants to rest, I can ask someone to bring the supper."

Si Yufan glanced at the elegant decorations in the guest room and smiled lightly: "Miss Cao is willing, so let's eat with everyone, so it's more lively."

Cao Qiyan nodded slightly and brought the two to the dining room. Si Yufan looked down at the delicacies placed on the table and started eating them ignoring their image.

At this time, Cao Wenhuan walked in, and a fine cold sweat burst out from his forehead.

"Qiyan, your brother's physical condition is already stable, but he may not be able to participate in tomorrow's competition."

"What should I do?" Cao Qiyan rushed up.

Cao Wenhuan sighed deeply: "I have promised the city lord, and he will replace your brother tomorrow."

"How can I ask him for help?" Cao Qiyan immediately raised his eyebrows: "That guy is not right and will definitely take the opportunity to speak loudly. You are not..."

Cao Wenhuan raised his hand to stop the words she said, his face full of bitterness: "I know too, but now my father can't find a suitable candidate, so he can only agree to his request. Our Cao family can't afford to lose!"

Cao Qiyan pursed her lips tightly, suddenly remembered something, and a moving arc appeared on the corner of her mouth: "I know a better candidate."

"who?"
