"Shao Erbi, don't lie on the ground pretending to have amnesia."
Chen Shen stretched out his finger with an indifferent expression and said, "You seem to owe me something, right?"
Upon hearing this, Shao Erbi trembled all over.
Of course he knew that the "thing" Chen Shen was referring to was the bet agreed upon in advance - the prize that originally belonged to him as the number one scholar: the ultimate realm-breaking pill!
The top-quality realm-breaking pill is definitely a good thing. It can allow a strong person in the Xuanshi realm to unconditionally advance by one level, and it will not have any impact on the future advancement of cultivation.
Even if Shao Erbi doesn't use it himself, he can still use it to honor the older generation of strong men in the family, or simply find an opportunity to auction it off, which will definitely get a lot of rich resources!
But now, Shao Erbi had to give away this treasure that made countless powerful people in the imperial capital jealous.
Moreover, it is given to his enemies!
This feeling is like my weak heart being severely scratched by a sharp knife. It hurts like hell!
If the circumstances were different, Shao Erbi would rather bear a lifetime of infamy than find ways to get rid of this matter!
However, this Danxia battle was personally supervised by the King of Daxia. Even if Shao Erbi had a hundred more courage, he would not dare to make a mistake and could only obediently hand over the gambling reward.
Chen Shen opened the cork of the jade bottle and found a trace of spiritual consciousness wandering around the Xuan Dan inside. After confirming that the other party had not done anything, he pocketed it with satisfaction...
"Oh yeah! Junior Chen Shen is great!" Little Loli's little face flushed with excitement, her crescent eyes shining brightly.
Dean Deng’s face was even brighter: “It’s really thanks to his grandma!”
On the other side, in the thirty or so seats belonging to General Chen's mansion, the nine family elders looked at Chen Shen. In addition to being amazed, they all had a very strong color of envy.
I envy Chen Shen for getting that top-quality realm-breaking pill!
There are ten elders in high positions in General Chen's Mansion.
Except for the eldest elder Chen Jinyang, who has the cultivation level of a three-star Xuanwang, the other nine people's Xuanqi cultivation levels hover between the seven-star and nine-star Xuanshi masters.
These old guys are all thinking about one thing: after returning to Chen Mansion, I must try every means to please Master Chen!
As long as he is made happy, maybe this little guy will generously give himself the top-quality realm-breaking pill?
When these elders think about it, Chen Shen's cultivation is still far away from the realm of Xuan Master. Since he can't use it himself, the possibility of using it as a favor is quite high...
In fact, in terms of excitement and excitement, I’m afraid no one in the room can compare with Chen Shen’s grandfather!
Chen Zangfeng witnessed his precious grandson going through many obstacles all the way. The old man, who was over seventy years old, was almost moved to tears.
Deep in his heart, he was probably filled with a sense of pride and joy: "Well, well, well! You are indeed my grandson! The ancestors, my Chen family, have a successor!"
Although Chen Zangfeng had tried very hard to control his emotions, he still couldn't hide it from the King of Daxia sitting next to him.
Xia Yuanlong looked intently at the young man on Qianlong Platform, and then glanced calmly at Chen Zangfeng, who was sitting on his right, and thought to himself: "Old General Chen is so excited, could it be that Chen Shen of Kowloon City is actually...
Are you related to the Chen family in the imperial capital?"
Logically speaking, as the legitimate grandson of the General's Palace, Chen Shen, even if he is not known to the world, should at least be known far and wide in the Imperial City.
However, Chen Shen was diagnosed with dementia since he was a child. Chen Zangfeng didn't want him to bear the unbearable ridicule since he was a child, so he always kept a low profile and never mentioned his grandson's name to the outside world.
Over time, Chen Shen's name gradually faded out of people's sight.
The old man hopes that one day he can cure Chen Shen's natural illness and then reveal his identity as the young master of the Chen family.
If it weren't for the fact that the great elder Chen Jinyang secretly spread the news that "Chen Zangfeng's grandson is a stupid waste" a few years ago, the dignitaries in the imperial capital would never have made up the phrase "Long Lord, Tiger Father, Toad Grandson"
, come to squeeze the Chen family.
The reason why Chen Jinyang did such a despicable thing in the first place was naturally to prepare for seizing power in the future...
Suddenly, a flash of light flashed in the King of Daxia's mind: "That's right! Fifteen years ago, when I first ascended the throne, I was given a title by Guang Guang!"
"At that time, Chen Zangfeng's grandson had just turned 100 days old. Coincidentally, King Huainan's granddaughter Xia Caiyue had just turned one year old."
"Gu Bian rewarded them with the virtual titles of Marquis Zhongyong and Marquis Zhongyi respectively. At that time, the baby who won the honor of Marquis Zhongyong was called Chen Shen!"
Thinking of this, the King of Daxia smiled meaningfully, then turned his head to look at Chen Zangfeng, and cursed with a smile: "You Chen Zangfeng, you are not kind, very unkind!"
Xia Yuanlong's sudden laughter and curse made everyone stunned. All the monks who were two feet tall were confused and stared at each other.
Even Chen Zangfeng himself didn't know what the King of Daxia meant by these words, so he had to stand up, clasped his fists and bowed: "I am stupid, I don't know what your Majesty means?"
When others talked face to face with the King of Great Xia, they would kneel down and bow. However, Chen Zangfeng only bowed with his fists clasped and did not kneel down!
In the whole country, only the Chen family of the General's Palace and the Prince Xia Chunqiu of the Huainan Palace have such privileges!
Needless to say, the King of Huainan was so powerful that he monopolized one-third of the entire empire's territory and cities. In addition, he was the uncle of the current emperor. When Xia Yuanlong succeeded to the throne, he informed the world: King Huainan and his direct descendants,
Everyone has the right to be exempted from kneeling.
As for the Chen family, they also enjoy this privilege.
However, what the Chen family relies on is not the favor and preferential treatment of the emperor's relatives, but the passionate loyalty and towering military exploits of the ancestors of the Chen family, which made it possible to see the emperor today without kneeling.
honor!
Xia Yuanlong slowly shook his head, pointed at the black-robed young man on the Qianlong Platform, and then poked Chen Zangfeng standing in front of him, saying:
"You old man, you obviously have such an amazing and beautiful grandson, but you have hidden it for so many years! Let our country of Great Xia almost bury such a young prodigy. Say it yourself, are you being very unkind?
"
As soon as he said this, the 100,000 guests in the audience were stunned!
Chen Zangfeng smiled, and every wrinkle on his old face seemed to relax: "Hehe... Your Majesty, I am aware that I didn't mean to deceive you. It's really because this little brat like Chen Shen likes to keep a low profile, so, hehehe...
…”
Like to play low-key? This reason is simply too perfunctory.
However, when everyone heard it, they couldn't help but believe it.
Because other than this reason, they really can't figure out why the descendants of the dignified General's Mansion have remained unknown for more than ten years...
