He sighed secretly. After a person's status is improved, the people around him will change to some extent. This kind of change is also called being out of place.
Just like a poor loser suddenly becomes rich, the people in the village will be jealous and in awe. Friends who usually play better will take the initiative to separate the boundaries, and it will be difficult to return to the heartless play before.
This is caused by inferiority and jealousy! "Grandpa is at home, but!"
Fang Hailan did change and was extremely polite to Lin Chen: "But you killed Gu Tong, I'm afraid of grandpa!"
"The Fang family wants to separate boundaries with me?"
It was not difficult for Lin Chen to guess what.
Although the Fang family is an aristocratic family, the Gu family is more powerful because it has two major martial alliances. The Fang family cannot offend the Gu family because of Lin Chen. After all, they are just ordinary friends in the first place.
"Well, let me talk to him!"
Lin Chen suggested.
Fang Hailan thought for a while, then took Lin Chen into the house. After entering the hall, two figures just walked out, namely Fang Hailan and Fang Fangming.
Fang Hailan didn't have Fang Hailan's thoughts and was very happy to see Lin Chen, as usual.
Looking at Xiang Ming again, he simply lowered his head and dared not look at Lin Chen.
Just yesterday, the elders of the Fang family scolded Fang Ming and told him not to provoke Lin Chen. Originally, Fang Ming was still dissatisfied because he was the young master of the Fang family after all! But after learning that Bronze was also killed by Lin Chen, he finally
I'm scared! He likes Gao Yaqin's affairs. If Lin Chen wants to interfere, he can only stand aside obediently.
"Lin Chen, why are you here!"
Fang Hailan greeted him warmly.
"Ask your grandpa something!"
Lin Chen responded casually and followed Fang Hailan into the hall, but when the path became clear, he paused: "I'm not interested in Gao Yaqin. If you want to chase her, you can go after her yourself. But I remind you, that woman's palace is very deep.
, and the other thing is, if I meet her, I will kill her!"
After that, he entered the hall.
Xiang Ming's whole body trembled.
It seemed that the goddess he was pursuing so hard was nothing more than this in Lin Chen's heart. He even killed Gao Yaqin without any mercy.
Ironically, he actually thought Lin Chen liked Gao Yaqin! "Dr. Lin is here!"
In the hall, the old man of the Fang family has placed tea and is waiting.
Obviously, someone had informed Lin Chen when he first entered Fang's house, and if it was normal, he would not have taken the initiative to greet him, but the Lin Chen now is no longer the Lin Chen he met for the first time.
Lin Chen was not polite. He sat down and said, "Mr. Fang always likes to sleep until noon. Why did you get up so early today?"
Mr. Fang gave a wry smile and said, "It depends on who you are. Dr. Lin is here. Not to mention sleeping, even if you are in seclusion, you have to come out!"
He knew that Lin Chen was not only a strong martial artist, but also had a strong background.
Gu Tong was killed, and the Gu family still has not come forward, which explains everything.
It can be said that Lin Chen is now the spokesperson of the Wei family.
"Dr. Lin is here for some reason!"
The old man poured Lin Chen a cup of tea, then asked Fang Hailan and the others to leave, and the two of them talked alone.
Lin Chen picked up the teacup, took a sip, and said, "Don't worry, I'm not here to find allies. The Fang family doesn't need to be so nervous!"
The old man was shocked, seemed a little embarrassed, and said with a smile: "Dr. Lin, I don't know what state you are in!"
Lin Chen asked back: "What level does Mr. Fang think I am?"
"To be honest, your martial arts skills are strange, and your internal strength is hard to see through, but I guess you have reached the realm of heaven and humanity!"
The old man said.
Lin Chen smiled and said nothing.
Seeing Lin Chen's appearance, the old man was shocked. In fact, he had already made a guess and just wanted to see Lin Chen's confirmation.
After all, unless one is innately invincible, defeating Wei Yubo, the strongest innate master, would be in the realm of heaven and man.
"What a genius!"
Thinking of this, the old man sighed with a face: "There are only two people in the Heavenly Realm like you who are as young as you in the whole of China. There is one in the Gu family, followed by you. I thought that my granddaughter Fang Hailan was the proud daughter of heaven, but with
When you compare it, it looks as dim as a firefly!"
His voice was filled with weakness and envy.
What's helpless is that he is hundreds of years old and has just entered the realm of heaven and humanity, and his progress is slow, while Lin Chen is only twenty years old. The age gap is too big.
Of course, if he knew that Lin Chen only started practicing in the past two or three years, he doesn't know what he would think.
As for envy, it is naturally because he is such a talented person, but turns out he is not from the Fang family.
If Lin Chen hadn't offended the Gu family, such a genius should have been recruited into the Gu family.
When Lin Chen saw the old man's appearance, he continued: "The old man should also be in the heaven-human realm, a master on the Chinese Earth Ranking!"
The old man did not deny it, but sighed: "The master on the earth list is just a false name. My cultivation progress is slow now, and the realm of heaven and man is like looking at the clouds across the mountain, it's blurry!"
Lin Chen was secretly shocked. The Fang family is one of the four most powerful families in China. The old man today is just a top player on the Earth Ranking. So what about the China Ranking?
Are all the records recorded hidden doors?
That's not right, there is more than one Hidden Sect, he only knows about the Ascension Sect and the View of Eternal Life, plus the proprietress's behind-the-scenes sect, which can't be recorded on the Tianbang list alone.
Could it be that the Heavenly Ranking records the top experts in China who are not concerned with worldly affairs?
"It is more difficult to advance to the realm of heaven and man than to ascend to heaven. I am ninety-eight this year and I know destiny at fifty. It is estimated that it will be difficult to advance to the next level in this life!"
The old man was still sighing with helplessness in his voice.
"That's not necessarily the case. It depends on human effort!"
Lin Chen shook his head and said.
The old man smiled bitterly: "Throughout the history of China, there are not many people like me who are older than me. For example, it is rumored that Zhang Sanfeng of the Wudang sect lived in seclusion and broke through the barrier of life and death. However, he has excellent understanding, and I don't have this kind of understanding.
Understanding!"
Lin Chen immediately asked: "Is it possible that the old man has hit a bottleneck in his cultivation?"
The old man didn't hide anything: "Yes, I have been stuck in the realm for thirty years. I made rapid progress before I was sixty years old, and then stagnated. In fact, many masters like us are like this, and we can only find another way."
Way to break through!”
After a pause, he continued: "For example, the one from the Gu family seeks technological power, and the one from the Wei family pursues the oldest legendary hidden door in China. In short, he has more pursuits, but so far there has been little progress!
"
When Lin Chen heard this, he secretly sighed. To reach the status of the old man, it is no longer about pursuing money and power, but about martial arts.
Martial arts not only represents strength, but also represents lifespan. The higher the martial arts, the longer the lifespan.
"I think the old man may have taken the wrong path!"
Lin Chen said lightly: "In my opinion, human potential has its limits. If the limit is not reached, you can rely on brute force of skills and treasures to attack, but if the limit is reached, what is needed is the state of mind!"
What he said is indeed true. For example, Lin Chen's Human Corpse Mysterious Technique has still not reached its limit. It is more like the initial stage, so there is no bottleneck in the practice.
But the Fang family's skills have reached their limit.
The old man's eyes lit up: "I would like to hear the details!"
