The middle-aged man in yellow was silent for a long time, and the entire courtyard fell into a strange silence. The three of them sat and stood in the night, staring at each other.
After a long time, a dry voice broke the tranquility in the courtyard. "Wuding, when you grow up, you look like your mother." The middle-aged man in yellow finally said the first sentence.
"Maybe so. I wonder what your purpose is here? Don't you plan to let me participate? I remember when I was a kid, no matter what kind of competition the family held, even if I got the quota privately, you would directly take it away." Hu Chen Wuding.
He said coldly.
The middle-aged man in yellow sighed and smiled bitterly, "Wuding, I know you hate your father. He hardly gave you training resources when you were a child and refused to let you participate in family competitions. But the news you got this time was not sent by me.
I once told your mother that you should go to the second stronghold outside the family from time to time to wait for news. In this case, how can I prevent you from coming to the family to seize the position of the son of inheritance? On the contrary, I hope you can get this position, and
Must get it." The person who came was none other than Hu Chen Wan Dong, the head of the Hu Chen family.
Huchen Wuding listened to Huchen Wandong's words, his face still as cold as before, he just stared at him, as if he wanted to recall this person who once made him hate and fear him.
This time, Hu Chen Wan Dong averted his gaze and looked at Zhuo Lingfeng. He suddenly bowed deeply to Zhuo Lingfeng, "You must be Zhuo Lingfeng, brother Zhuo. Wu Ding, mother and son, have been indebted to you for these years."
Thank you for taking care of me!"
Although his gift was unexpected, Hu Chen Wuding and Zhuo Lingfeng only had a few glances. Zhuo Lingfeng's old voice slowly said, "How can I, a minor foundation-building cultivator, dare to force a Jindan cultivator to do this great gift?"
, and I can’t even bear the title of Brother Zhuo. I just tried my best to save the face of my fellow disciples, but it doesn’t work. So what if I don’t want to take this miserable life?”
Although his words were full of indifference, there was also a hint of anger, and he did not care at all that he was afraid because the other party was a middle-stage Jindan monk who was much stronger than him.
In front of a golden elixir monk, all his cultivation is just a joke, and the other person will kill him in just one encounter. But knowing this, Zhuo Lingfeng is still not afraid of the consequences.
After listening to Zhuo Lingfeng's words, there was no trace of anger on Huchen Wandong's face, but a deep regret, "Brother Zhuo is too humble, I wonder how your mother is doing now?"
Hu Chen Wan Dong once again bowed his hand to Zhuo Lingfeng, and then looked at Hu Chen Wuding with a look of urgency in his eyes. In his heart, he thought that this time he came to the family, and in order to be more hidden, only the two of them hid in light clothing.
Follow the traces.
"Mother? I won't bother you to ask, why don't you tell me the reason for coming here first?" When Hu Chen Wuding heard Hu Chen's late words, sharp pain flashed deep in his heart, and he said with an increasingly cold expression.
.
There was a hint of disappointment in Hu Chen Wan Dong's eyes, which were originally full of expectations. He knew that this situation was It was all caused by his own hands, which was also the main reason why he came here tonight. He took a deep breath, glanced at Zhuo Lingfeng who was standing behind Huchen Wuding, and thought for a moment, it was Xiu Pao.
With a wave of his hand, a huge ban appeared on the courtyard wall, covering the entire courtyard.
Zhuo Lingfeng had already released his spiritual power to protect Hu Chen Wuding when he waved his sleeves. Although he knew that with his foundation-building skills, if the other party wanted to deal with the two of them, they would be unable to resist, but he still did so.
He came here this time with the intention of dying. Everything was to fulfill her confession back then and the wish of the children who had been dependent on each other for more than ten years. After he sensed that this restriction was only a sound insulation effect, he also felt the same in his heart.
One loose.
After placing a ban, Hu Chen Wandong looked at Hu Chen Wu Ding and said, "I'm late as a father. It's not because I'm afraid of your aunt and the others." When he finished saying this, he could clearly see the corners of Hu Chen Wu Ding's mouth curling up in disdain.
No, he pretended not to notice and continued.
"If you don't believe what I'm saying below, Brother Zhuo can still provide some evidence." Huchen Wandong said such an unreasonable thing. Not waiting for the strange expressions of the two people in front of him, he said it on his own.
stand up.
"Your mother was born in a very small second-rate sect..." Following Hu Chen Wan Dong's narration, Hu Chen's heart was shaken in Wu Ding's heart. The confusion that had been there for many years finally became clear, especially about the
He had never understood why his mother married into the Huchen family. In his childhood memories, his mother seemed to be indifferent to the father in front of her.
Yue Xiangyun, a girl who came from an inconspicuous second-rate sect, has a beautiful appearance and is the sweetheart of many young disciples in the sect. When the foundation was first established more than 20 years ago, she was also the sect's genius, but the head of the sect wanted to give the sect
Looking for a strong backer, he betrothed her to the head of the Huchen family, a first-class family in the ascendant. Huchen moved late.
At that time, Hu Chen Wan Dong was already a famous mid-level Golden elixir master. In terms of age, the two were extremely incompatible. Hu Chen Wan Dong was over 300 years old and was already married to two wives. However, the sect leader of Yue Xiangyun's sect, Xiao Xiao,
With reason and emotion, he almost even begged hard with several elders. Poor Yue Xiangyun grew up in the sect since he was a child. How could he have seen such a battle? He had to agree with tears and marry into the pot against his will.
Chen family, but she didn't know that once she entered the noble family, she would never look back.
The Huchen family's marriages are all through marriage, which is the most common practice among Xiuxian families. The eldest mistress Xie Xiaoxiao lives in the Xie family, the second mistress Chi Dongli lives in the Chi family, and the fourth-fang Ye who later married Yue Xiangyun
The Luo Yanye family is either a first-rate family or a top second-rate family, which cannot be compared with the sect behind Yue Xiangyun. Therefore, they often
He was bullied by Dafang and Fourth Fang, but fortunately, sometimes Chi Dongli, from Second Fang, helped him to say a few words, which somewhat curbed the unscrupulous behavior of Dafang and Fourth Fang.
At that time, Hu Chen Wan Dong actually liked his third wife the most, who was a very docile third wife without any backing force. However, facing the power of the eldest mistress, Xie Xiaoxiao, he dared to get angry and dare not speak out. The reason was that the family
The ancestor has closed the life and death barrier and has not been seen for decades. There are even rumors in the clan that he is dead. As for the place where ancestor Huchen retreats, except for his own ability to open it, even if Huchen moves late to the middle stage of the golden elixir,
Cultivation is also unable to open it from the outside, so the Huchen family faces the danger of being surrounded by powerful enemies from the outside world.
The biggest foreign enemy of the Huchen family is the Xie family, where the eldest mistress Xie Xiaoxiao belongs. The ancestor of the Xie family also entered the early stage of Yuanying decades ago. The purpose of marrying the Huchen family was to take advantage of the power of the Huchen family.
and resources to develop their own family. Now there is a problem within the Huchen family. How can they let it go? It’s just that the Xie family Yuanying ancestor is very afraid of the Huchen ancestor. He has only been pregnant for decades, and Huchen
The ancestor has been in the early stage of Nascent Soul for hundreds of years, and it is not an opponent of the same level at all, so on the one hand, while asking the Grand Mistress Xie Xiaoxiao to pay attention to the movements of the Huchen family, she began to seize power from within the Huchen family.
The elders of the Huchen family are all elders. They are loyal to the Huchen family and it is almost impossible to bribe them. Therefore, the Xie family has set their sights on the next generation. As long as they obtain the family inheritance position,
Then everything will be solved, and in a few decades or hundreds of years, the center of power will naturally be handed over, and of course all this will fall on the eldest son born by the mistress Xie Xiaoxiao. She constantly brainwashes her son and indoctrinates her natal family.
The benefits of the Huchen family, the selfishness of the Huchen family, etc., and the ancestors of the Xie family outside were constantly putting pressure on the Huchen family, which made Huchen Wan Dong and several Jindan elders dare not speak out.
But with the birth of Huchen Wuding, the talent he revealed after he was six years old made the eldest mistress Xie Xiaoxiao feel a huge threat, and began to continuously suppress Yue Xiangyun. In addition, the fourth room Ye Luoyan was deliberately trying to
Anyone who came close to her would step on anyone she didn't like. You can easily imagine how miserable Yue Xiangyun's life was.
Finally, when Huchen Wuding was eight years old, his aptitude became more and more outstanding, surpassing that of his eldest son Huchen Wanli and his youngest son Huchen Jianghai, and the ancestor of Huchen might leave seclusion at any time. This made the eldest son, the four brothers
Fang and the others made the decision to kill the mother and son. Fortunately, although Huchen Wandong endured the humiliation, he always paid attention to their movements. After learning about this situation, he immediately sent Yue Xiangyun, mother and son out.
.
His move made the eldest mistress Xie Xiaoxiao furious, and she almost made the Xie family launch an attack. But at this moment, the second-fang Chi family, the only Yuanying ancestor, unexpectedly came to the Huchen family , saying that he was visiting his daughter, and then he stayed here for three years. Everyone saw the unusualness. The Chi family could not let the Xie family become the dominant family in any case, and among them, the ancestor of the Chi family
Perhaps the purpose of staying in the Huchen family is to find out news about the ancestor of Huchen, but it is not necessarily true.
Even after the Yuan Ying ancestor of the Chi family left, the Xie family had no plans to attack the Huchen family. They only began to increase the training of Huchen Wanli, and at the same time continued to pressure Huchen to move later and move earlier to inherit the position of his son.
However, after sending away Hu Chen Wuding, the head of the family, Hu Chen Wan Dong, gradually became tougher. No matter how the big house and the fourth house put pressure on him from inside and outside, he would not announce the start of the battle for the inheritance son.
, but because the ancestor did not leave the seclusion for a day, the son of the inheritance was invalid. He delayed it again and again. This delay lasted for seventeen years. He actually delayed it until the ancestor Huchen successfully came out of the seclusion. In this way,
, so that part of the Xie family's plan was in vain. They had no hope of the death of their ancestor Huchen, but they were secretly glad that if they had really rashly attacked the Huchen family, they would have fought to the death.
Coupled with the fact that the old ghost of the Chi family is watching eagerly from the sidelines, the final result may be that the Chi family is advantaged and both he and Hu Chen will suffer.
"I also reported your talent to the ancestor, and he was very happy after hearing it." After Hu Chen Wan Dong finished everything, he looked at Hu Chen Wuding with soft eyes and said.
There was a complex look in Hu Chen's eyes. He didn't know about these situations, and his mother had never told him about them. In his memory, there were all kinds of bullying and deep hatred in his childhood.
He looked back at Uncle Sang. Zhuo Lingfeng never spoke. When the father and son were talking, no one noticed that when Hu Chen Wan Dong said the three words "Yue Xiangyun", Zhuo Lingfeng's body inadvertently moved slightly.
After a slight shake, he returned to normal. However, when he later told the story about the sect leader and several elders begging Yue Xiangyun to marry into the Huchen family, there was a trace of sadness and anger deep in his eyes. No one knew that he was there.
When he knew about this, he met Yue Xiangyun in private. The latter was speechless and his eyes were empty, as if he was a walking corpse. No matter how he talked, his senior sister remained silent, which made him finally understand that this
The so-called pedantry in the world, the so-called dedication to the sect is nothing more than this. He left the sect directly after being heartbroken. When he returned to the sect again, it was already a few years later, but the man came to join him with his children.
He did.
Realizing that Hu Chen Wu Ding turned back to look at him, after a moment of silence, Zhuo Lingfeng said in a hoarse voice, "What he said about your mother marrying into the Hu Chen family was not false. It was the sect's decision, and what happens next will not be the same."
I heard your mother say it before, so that's probably the case." Speaking of this, Zhuo Lingfeng seemed to stoop a little more, and he couldn't tell whether it was hatred towards the Huchen family, or whether he should put all this hatred aside
That's the case with the Xie family, the Ye family, and even the sect in which he belongs.
