Chapter 522: Another pit?

The things that followed were smoother than expected. Huang Yuchen and Qi Liu walked through the first path and arrived on another street. It was as lively as before, but no one recognized Huang Yuchen anymore.

The street is not long, and in the center, there is a huge wooden sign covered with various notes. Some resell things, some selling cultivation resources, and some looking for cultivation partners. Huang Yuchen looked on it for a while and finally found information about a rental house. It was posted in an inconspicuous location. The words on the note were written very simply, but a more detailed route map was drawn.

Huang Yuchen took off the note, followed the route map marked above, and followed the streets. Finally, after a stick of incense, he found the house to be rented.

This is a three-story building that looks quaint, and compared with the surrounding buildings, it is obviously much more elegant. The door of the building is closed, and the same rental notice is posted at the door. Huang Yuchen stood at the door, looking at the building in front of him, scratching his head, and saying to himself: "How much does it cost to rent such a large building?"

Huang Yuchen glanced at Qi Zhengye and Liu Xingan behind him. The two of them obviously had no intention of coming forward to knock on the door. Huang Yuchen had no choice but to go forward and knocked on the door gently.

After a moment, the door opened gently, and a playful and cute girl poked her head out to look, staring at her with a pair of watery eyes and asked, "Who are you looking for?"

"Hello, little girl." Huang Yuchen smiled at the little girl and said, "I saw the notice for renting you, so I came to take a look."

The little girl was stunned when she heard this, then smiled again, opened the entire door, made a way out, and said, "Then please come in." After saying that, she ignored Huang Yuchen and others, and did not go to guide the few people, and jumped into the door on her own.

Huang Yuchen felt something was wrong, but something was wrong but couldn't tell me. Qi and Liu were still fine, and their clothes were not in charge. They could only shake their head helplessly, followed the little girl, and walked towards Xiaolou.

Perhaps the area assigned by the registered disciples is limited, the streets of this small town are relatively narrow, and there is no gap between buildings and buildings. They are densely built, and walking on the street will give people an unspeakable feeling of depression. But this courtyard is different. The courtyard is obviously much spacious, and the distance from the gate to the small building can catch up with the width of the street outside.

This courtyard is very elegantly decorated. Although it is not like the wealthy courtyards in the secular world, it is also elegant and orderly, which makes people feel refreshed.

"Dad, someone is visiting the house." The little girl jumped into the room and greeted loudly. Then, Huang Yuchen felt a breeze in front of him, and then a black shadow appeared in front of him. The man was so fast that he almost didn't react.

It was not until the man stood in front of him that Huang Yuchen stopped and looked up. The person in front of him was at least one head taller than him. The man was clear and wavy, and a clear scar on his left cheek destroyed his originally handsome face, which seemed a bit ferocious. At this moment, he was quietly looking at Huang Yuchen, neither trying to get out of the way nor speaking.

"Uh... this senior, we are..." Such a person suddenly appeared in front of him, which took time to scare Huang Yuchen. However, after entering the yard, he still greeted him politely, but halfway through, he was interrupted by this person.

"Do you know where this is?" The man lowered his head and glared at Huang Yuchen. He seemed to have a forceful aura on his body. This aura rushed towards Huang Yuchen like a wave, causing Huang Yuchen to step back involuntarily, and a small bead of sweat immediately appeared on his forehead.

Just now, Huang Yuchen felt that he was not facing a person, but a long sword that killed countless people. If he acted rashly, he would immediately die on the spot.

He had never encountered such a feeling before. While taking a step back, his whole body was sweating coldly. He looked at the person in front of him, his steps slightly retreated, and he was ready to fight at all times, but his face still maintained his expression just now, and he said softly: "Sorry, I don't know."

Qi Zhengye and Liu Xing'an also felt something was wrong with the atmosphere. They walked to Huang Yuchen and looked straight at the middle-aged man standing at the door, with an aura that was not inferior to him.

"I don't know where this is, and why do you want to rent it? Get out!" The middle-aged man frowned, and didn't know where he got the anger. He pointed outside the door, opened his mouth and issued an order to expel the guest.

Huang Yuchen was calm at this moment. The person's attitude made him feel a little angry and said, "I found it after reading the notice you posted on the street. If it is not for rent here, why post the notice? If I come, you will drive people away without saying a word. What's the reason?"

The middle-aged man was stunned when he heard this, looked at Huang Yuchen, his tone slightly eased, and he asked with a little inquiry: "Did you just come?"

"Do I need to rent a house if I'm not here?" Huang Yuchen asked back without showing any weakness. The middle-aged man gave him a sense of inexplicable feeling, and he didn't know where the man came from. When he saw him, he seemed to be going to kill him.

The middle-aged man didn't say anything, but looked up and down at Huang Yuchen, then looked at Qi Zhengye and Liu Xing'an beside Huang Yuchen. After a while, he nodded softly and said, "Since that's the case, come in." After throwing this sentence, the man turned around and walked in without saying a word, leaving Huang Yuchen and Qi Liu staring at each other, not knowing what happened.

"Hey, this person is afraid he is not a fool." Qi Zhengye said softly in Huang Yuchen's ear.

"Not like it." Huang Yuchen shook his head gently and replied in a low voice: "This man must be a master. I clearly felt the momentum on him just now. If this man takes action, he may be able to kill me easily."

"So exaggerated?" Liu Xingan also whispered from the side: "Why don't we evacuate, this place looks a little bit wrong."

Huang Yuchen looked at Liu Xing'an and nodded gently. The three of them retreated gently at the same time, intending to slowly exit the courtyard.

"Let you come in! What are you going to be slow?" The voice of the middle-aged man suddenly came from the door: "If you go out now, you will die."

As soon as the words came, the door behind the three suddenly closed automatically. When they heard the sound of the door behind them closing, Huang Yuchen and the other two looked back and looked at each other again. The expressions on the faces of the few people were not very good.

"Damn it, I'm afraid I've entered some thief's nest again." Huang Yuchen's face looked a little ugly. The water from the Chihong Sect was too deep, and he was getting hurried every step.

"I can't leave anymore, so why not go in and take a look?" Qi Zhengye was still the same as usual, as if nothing had happened, and he even seemed a little excited.

Huang Yuchen sighed lightly. Things have come to this point. Judging from the meaning of the middle-aged man, if a few people don’t go in, they will probably take action. Although they don’t know where this is, or who this middle-aged man is, Huang Yuchen still took a step and entered the small building in front of him.

The interior of the building is also very elegant and tidy, with all kinds of furniture available. The first floor is obviously a reception area. In the hall where a few people come in, there are several chairs and small tables on both sides, but there is no seat for the owner in the middle. At this moment, the middle-aged man with a fierce look on his face was sitting on a chair, looking straight at the few people. The little girl just now was standing beside the person, grinning at the few people.

Seeing this, Huang Yuchen stepped forward, bowed to the middle-aged man, and said respectfully: "I disturbed senior. I found it when I saw the rental notice you posted. There was no intention of disturbing senior. If the senior's residence is not for rent, then we will leave now."

"Are you surnamed Huang?" The middle-aged man did not directly answer Huang Yuchen's words, but instead asked him a lot.

Huang Yuchen was slightly stunned when he heard this and thought to himself: Could it be that the fight between him and Li Ze has been spread here? It’s not that? Doesn’t the Chihong Sect have this tradition? Can’t the challenge be carried out at any time? Why is this happening?

"Uh... I'm the junior." Huang Yuchen was stunned for a moment and admitted it generously. There was nothing to hide in this matter.

"Okay." The middle-aged man nodded gently and said, "My residence is for rent, but my conditions are a bit harsh. If you can do it, you will live in the house for free. If you can't do it, I will take your life."

Huang Yuchen was stunned again when he heard this, and had an unspeakable strange feeling in his heart. He looked at the middle-aged man in front of him and showed an incomprehensible expression, saying, "Senior, at the worst, I don't rent a house. I have no grudges with you. Why do you ask me to take my life many times?"

"You came here because someone had planned it." The middle-aged man looked at Huang Yuchen and said in a plain tone: "If you can complete the conditions I gave you, the house will be free to live in. If it cannot be completed, I will take your life. This is the conditions I offered to the person who plotted on you, and he agreed."

"Ah?" Huang Yuchen immediately fainted and said, "Who agreed? Senior, I didn't agree. Otherwise, you can let me out, and I won't stay here anymore. I'm better than losing my life when I sleep on the street."

Huang Yuchen was very helpless, helpless and angry at what the middle-aged man said. Who was going to bother him like this and put such a trap for him? The middle-aged man in front of him was obviously a great master. If he wanted his life, he should be able to win. Until now, Huang Yuchen was confused and had not figured out what was going on.

"Oh, the person who deals with me to plot against you is called Xiao Yibo. I had a relationship with him decades ago. This time he came to me and made it clear that he wanted you to live here. He also said that if you can't fulfill my conditions, you can kill you." The middle-aged man raised his eyes and looked at Huang Yuchen casually, as if he said something ordinary.

But this incident really shocked Huang Yuchen.

Xiao Yibo? His uncle Xiao? He found such a great master to kill him? Huang Yuchen could hardly believe his ears. He looked at the middle-aged man and his tone was a little stuttering, saying, "You... are you talking about...Who is Xiao Yibo? Xiao Yibo from the East Prince's Mansion?"

"Yes, it's him." The middle-aged man nodded gently.

"Where is he now?" Huang Yuchen was still a little stunned, very unbelievable what the middle-aged man said.
