"Trying the tiger skin from Tianxuan Mountain, scaring the Chu family into a daze."
After walking out of the Chu family's main room, thinking about everything that had just happened, Ziyu couldn't help but curl her lips and looked at Chu Qingxiao with a slightly strange look.
She had to admit that Chu Qingxiao's method was very good.
The Chu family's current state of ecstasy all relies on Chu Zhaozhao's status as a direct disciple of Tianxuan Mountain.
There is a saying that the person who untie the bell must also tie the bell, so using Tianxuan Mountain to drive Chu Zhaozhao out of the school is the most intimidating, which is undoubtedly the most effective for the Chu family.
Although this method still treats the symptoms rather than the root cause.
But this problem can probably be treated for a long time.
After hearing what you said, Chu Qingxiao shrugged his shoulders and said seriously: "Miss Ziyu, have you forgotten that I am also a disciple of Tianxuan Mountain now, and it is my duty to help my sect maintain its reputation.
How can you say it's a piece of cake?"
"That sounds nice, but why did you drag me with you? I don't want to get involved in this!" Ziyu couldn't stand Chu Qingxiao's vaguely proud look, so she asked again.
Chu Qingxiao looked back at her after hearing this, and then said: "In the eyes of the Chu family, I am just a disciple who was recruited into Tianxuan Mountain through Chu Zhaozhao's Dongfeng. If I move out of the name of Tianxuan Mountain, I will be somewhat lacking.
You are very persuasive, but Ziyu girl is different. At first glance, she is the famous person next to the master. Using your words to convey this meaning will have the effect of knocking the mountain and shaking the tiger."
Hearing this, Ziyu nodded secretly. Chu Qingxiao was able to think of a solution to this problem in such a short period of time and use it in the most effective way. This thought was indeed different from ordinary people.
But at the moment when she secretly sighed, she suddenly realized that something was wrong. She looked at Chu Qingxiao with a strange expression, and asked quietly at that time: "You said... In the eyes of the Chu family, you were recruited by the east wind."
From Tianxuan Mountain."
"What about actually?"
"Huh?" Chu Qingxiao blinked, then laughed and said: "By the way, Miss Ziyu, I just said that I was here for dinner, so I forgot all about this busy matter."
"Let's go and eat quickly..."
After saying this, the young man who was still eloquent in front of a large group of people just now walked away quickly as if he was running away.
Ziyu was stunned. She looked at Chu Qingxiao's leaving figure, her eyes slowly narrowed at that time, and a playful light flashed in the narrow slits of her eyes.
…
Zhang Xingzong thought for a while and closed the door of the pharmacy.
Although the young master helped him take away Chu Xuan who was making trouble, after such an incident, ordinary people would dare to come to his store to buy medicine. Who can say for sure whether such behavior will be punished by the Chu family
revenge.
Without business, there is no point in keeping the store open.
He comforted his wife and told her to stay home and not to go out for a few days. Then he picked up his medicine box and walked on the way to Zhang's house.
After the young master dragged Chu Xuan away, it didn't take long for the Chu family to restrain their behavior. Although there was no evidence, Zhang Xingzong had a vague feeling that the young master might have helped.
He actually wanted to find the young master to express his gratitude. He heard that the young master's name was Chu Qingxiao, and he seemed to be a direct disciple of Tianxuan Mountain.
With such an identity, it was not easy for him to meet him, so he could only keep this gratitude secretly in his heart.
Thinking of this, he quickly arrived at the Zhang family's residence.
After knocking on the door, the servant in the mansion cautiously poked his head out. When he saw that the person who came was Zhang Xingzong, he let out a long sigh of relief.
"Mr. Zhang, please come in, please come in!" He said quickly, pulled Zhang Xingzong into the house with one hand, and then closed the door as quickly as possible.
Today, whether it was the Zhang family's mansion or various shops, there were many people who came to make trouble, and many clan members were injured. It was not until it was almost evening that things stopped.
But the injured clan members had nowhere to seek medical treatment - ordinary medical clinics were afraid of offending the current Chu family, so a large number of clan members had no one to treat them, so they had to invite Zhang Xingzong.
As soon as they entered the main room, they saw dozens of clan members sitting or falling on the ground, pushing and shoving them.
It ranges from a bruised nose and swollen face to a severe case covered in blood, and some even suffered stab wounds.
He sighed, said nothing more, and hurried forward to bandage the injuries of the clan members.
The Zhang family has indeed become a bit domineering in Wancheng in recent years. Some members of the clan have relied on the Zhang family to gain power and have indeed done some evil things, but they are a minority after all.
Now that the Chu family has gained power and the situation has reversed, the Chu family will take revenge, and those who have been bullied by the Zhang family will also take revenge.
When it comes to this matter, it can be said that the Zhang family has themselves to blame.
However, there are indeed some tribesmen who have suffered unreasonable disasters.
It's a pity that the angry people don't have the time to think about it and just vent their anger.
Zhang Xingzong couldn't change anything.
He silently bandaged the wounds of each clan member, and it was almost late at night when he finished doing this.
He stood up, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and was about to leave.
He looked up and saw a person standing behind him. He was stunned for a moment, and then he recognized the person - it was Zhang Renhou, the head of the Zhang family.
He bowed respectfully and said: "Master of the family."
The other party nodded, his face no longer full of energy as before, but looking tired.
"Xingzong, you have suffered a lot these years." Zhang Renhou said.
Zhang Xingzong's father died in an accident in his early years. Some people in the clan coveted the property left by his father, so they used some underhanded methods to drive Zhang Xingzong out of the Zhang family. Because the people who used these methods were considered direct descendants of the Zhang family, so
Zhang Renhou just turned a blind eye and let him go.
At this moment, the Zhang family is in disaster. If ordinary people have the opportunity, they will naturally cut off their robes and sever their ties. On the contrary, this plan of repaying evil with virtue by reviving the family will inevitably make Zhang Renhou sigh with emotion.
"It's all over. Don't worry about it, head of the family. Take care of yourself. The whole family is counting on you." Zhang Xingzong said sincerely.
When Zhang Renhou heard this, he smiled bitterly and just nodded.
Zhang Xingzong had not met him for many years and was not very familiar with him. After saying some words, he turned around and left.
Looking at the other party's leaving figure, Zhang Renhou's heart was a little turbulent.
Nowadays, the Zhang family has rebelled against their relatives, but Zhang Xingzong, a collateral branch who was expelled from the Zhang family, is willing to help. He couldn't help but reflect on what he has done in the past ten years, and in the end, these thoughts turned into
A long sigh came out of his mouth...
…
"Master, the young master has not eaten for a day. Every time he is sent in, he will be beaten out. There is really nothing we can do..."
Zhang Renhou had just walked to the backyard when a disheveled servant was holding a food tray and spoke carefully, looking a little scared.
Zhang Renhou frowned. After all, he had no intention of blaming the servants as before. He just took the food plate from his hand and whispered: "Let me come. You have worked hard today. Go and rest."
Those servants had worked in the Zhang family for many years, but they had rarely seen Zhang Renhou like this. After all, they did not dare to ask any more questions and left one after another.
Zhang Renhou, who took the food box, slowly walked to the door of the room where the candle was still lit. He gently knocked on the door and whispered: "Quan'er, come out and eat some food."
There was no response from the room, but through the shadow cast by the candlelight on the door, Zhang Renhou could vaguely see the figure of his son sitting on the wooden chair.
He wanted to open the door, but when his hand landed on the wooden door, he hesitated.
In the end, he retracted his hand: "Quan'er, it is impossible for a person to have smooth sailing in his life."
"We have rich assets in Wancheng. Even if we sell them all at a low price, the money in our hands can still ensure the family's food and clothing. I still have old friends in Yuzhou. After I go there, there is a possibility of making a comeback.
"
"Dad, I know that you are depressed, but you are still young and cannot be depressed like this. You will have to be at the helm of the Zhang family in the future..."
The room was still silent and there was no response.
Zhang Renhou frowned and immediately put down the food plate in front of the door: "Dad, don't be nagging. I'll leave the food for you at the door. Remember to eat."
"If everything goes well, we will head north as a family in three or four days. Don't get so angry that you will suffer a lot on the way."
After saying this, Zhang Renhou took another deep look at the projection in the room. After all, he suppressed the worries in his heart and slowly turned around and left. At that moment, the head of the Zhang family seemed to have aged ten years in an instant.
.
…
And right now in that room.
Zhang Quan's hands were wrapped around his body, his eyes were red, his body was trembling from lack of strength, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
He kept mumbling.
"Not appropriate."
"Not appropriate……"
"I obviously worked so hard to get the spirit sword inheritance..."
"Those things should have been mine, why should she take them away..."
This situation has been going on for a long time. As he kept mumbling to himself, he kept recalling the scene when his spiritual sword was taken away in his mind.
The pain of having his sword spirit shattered, the despair of more than ten years of hard work being wasted, all surged in his mind at this moment.
That feeling made him miserable and made him furious!
"It's all her fault!"
"It's all that guy named Chu Zhaozhao. She harmed me! She harmed the Zhang family!"
He murmured in a low voice, his eyes becoming increasingly red, and as this emotion spread, a strange purple mark slowly appeared on the skin under the clothes on his back.
The mark was like a pair of bone wings spread out, with flames burning all over it. It couldn't be said to have any specific meaning, but it had a strange sense of beauty.
And as the purple runes emerged, bursts of purple energy overflowed from his back.
There seemed to be something in the void that was summoned by the purple energy. The space behind him began to twist, and boundless darkness surged in the twisted space vortex.
A scarlet eye suddenly opened in the darkness. He looked at Zhang Quan who was muttering to himself, with enthusiasm and awe in his eyes.
Black energy overflowed from the twisted space and came to Zhang Quan, turning into a strange figure.
His appearance was blurry, except for his eyes, which were scarlet and oozing with blood.
"What a noble divine seal."
"You can actually summon me here from outside the realm."
"Human, I hear your anger..."
"And are you willing to pay the price for your anger?"
Zhang Quan, who was in a strange state, trembled slightly. The moment he saw the strange thing in front of him clearly, a trace of fear flashed between his brows.
But the next moment, that fear was overwhelmed by anger.
He also had scarlet eyes, looking at the strange things in front of him, and then spoke without hesitation.
