"Nephew, uncle, am I not dazzled? How is your profound energy cultivation..."
"It's the Dragon-Slaying God." Before Chen Xiaohai could finish asking, Chen Shen had already given the name of the "top man" who had always been successful.
"What about the unique technique passed down from the ancestors of my Chen family?"
"I was eaten."
"Hiss! How the hell is this okay?" Chen Xiaohai took a deep breath.
If he hadn't seen the "Eight Wasteland Beacon Fire Jue" turn into a streak of light and submerge into Chen Shen's Dantian before, Chen Xiaohai would never believe such a ridiculous statement.
After a brief silence, the second uncle put his hand on his forehead and posed another problem: "The core disciples of the clan are also allowed to borrow ancestral exercises within a time limit, one week at most."
"A week from now, according to Chen Jinyang's temperament, he will definitely ask for the "Eight Wastelands Beacon Fire Art" back. What will you do then? If you don't do it well, you will be exposed..."
Chen Xiaohai didn't finish what he said, he only used his eyes to look at Chen Shen's chest.
The last time they met, he already knew about the existence of the Coiling Dragon Blood Jade, and according to Chen Shen, the soul of the Dragon-Slaying God was stored in the Coiling Dragon Blood Jade.
"It's just a copycat."
Chen Xiaohai was about to say more, but was interrupted by the young man: "I know uncle's worries. The counterfeit "Eight Wastelands Beacon Fire Jue" has no book soul and will be easily seen through, right?"
"This is not a problem. Even if it is a unique technique, no matter how awesome it is, the soul of the book will one day disappear and be exhausted. "Eight Wastelands Beacon Fire Jue" has been in our Chen family for thousands of years, and now the soul of the book has disappeared. What's so strange about it?
"
"But... this is too much of a coincidence, isn't it? Can that old fox Chen Jinyang believe it?"
Chen Shen chuckled: "Whether he believes it or not, since the soul of the book is gone, can he still kill me?"
The second uncle was stunned when he heard the words. Looking at the confident curve of the young man's mouth in front of him, he suddenly realized: "Yes! Now you have the blessing of the Dragon Slayer God. Second uncle, I have also returned to the nine-star peak of Xuanshi. I am still afraid of him."
The ball? The worst case scenario is that you’ll fall out and start doing it!”
"Let's go, let's go find that old man Chen Jinyang! It's time to settle the old and new grudges in Male Gobi!"
After saying that, Chen Xiaohai stood up and left, but Chen Shen grabbed his arm and said, "Second uncle, please be patient."
The strong man turned around slowly, his eyes full of confusion: "Chen Jinyang and his two sons have oppressed you so much, are you still going to swallow your anger?"
"Forbearance? How is that possible!"
Chen Shen's eyes were sharp: "Chen Jinyang, father and son, have repeatedly harmed my life. This blood feud must be repaid with blood!"
"Then why are you stopping me?"
The young man's expression remained calm and indifferent: "Because we don't have any real evidence at the moment, it is not the best idea to act rashly."
"I have already made plans. We must not act at this critical juncture to alert the enemy!"
When the second uncle heard this, Tu Zeng suddenly withdrew his mysterious power, narrowed his eyes, and said: "To scare the snake? Are you saying that there is another mastermind behind the great elder's family harming you?"
Chen Shen slowly shook his head: "I'm not sure yet whether there is a specific instigator. This is just an intuition."
"intuition?"
After hearing the boy's answer, the second uncle didn't say anything else.
On the contrary, a trace of unhappiness suddenly flashed across Mr. Chen's face: "Shen'er, grandpa has taught you since you were a child that you should not lie without evidence! You must rely on evidence in everything!"
When Chen Shen heard the words, he curled his lips and said: "Talk about evidence? Haha... Many things are calculated by others deliberately and unintentionally. How easy is it to get empirical evidence?"
"Just like fourteen years ago, my father died inexplicably in battle. No one can tell whether Xin Mi is behind this incident..."
Hearing Chen Shen mention his father, Chen Zangfeng took a deep breath.
His thoughts brought him back to that night fourteen years ago——
That battle back then was indeed too strange.
The most elite dark blade troops of the Taikou Kingdom were actually able to bypass King Huainan's military deployment, cross the South China Sea, cross the Yellow River, enter Xilin, and penetrate directly into the hinterland of the commander's camp!
At that time, the army led by Chen Zangfeng had already moved south.
The only people responsible for staying at the commander's camp were Chen Shen's father Chen Xiaotian, second uncle Chen Xiaohai, third uncle Chen Xiaocang, aunt Chen Xiaoyun, and 30,000 seriously wounded soldiers who had just retreated from the front line.
Kou's Dark Blade troops only have three thousand in number, but all of them are powerful men at the Xuanshi level!
The three leading generals are at the peak of Xuan Master's cultivation!
How could such a lineup be able to withstand the 30,000 seriously wounded men? What's more, they also used surprise attacks.
In that battle, Chen Shen's father Chen Xiaotian and third uncle Chen Xiaocang unfortunately died in the battle.
Aunt Chen Xiaoyun is missing.
Only the second uncle, Chen Xiaohai, carried the army back to help, but he also suffered from an incurable curse leg disease and became disabled, and his cultivation level plummeted as a result...
The Chen family's army has been on the battlefield for thousands of years, but they have never suffered such a huge defeat.
In that battle, the heavy price paid by the Chen family shocked the whole country!
"After that battle that year, I also suspected many people. Among them, the most suspicious person was undoubtedly Huainan King Xia Chunqiu."
"Because the most elite dark blade troops of the Taikou Kingdom were able to hide from Xia Chunqiu's army deployment and penetrate more than three thousand miles into the hinterland of our country. It is really unbelievable."
Chen Zangfeng's chest fluctuated greatly, presumably because he was restraining his emotions of sadness or anger.
After a long while, he continued: "However, when I rushed to the infiltration point to investigate in person, I found that the 100,000 troops deployed by King Huainan here had all died under the curse. The camps that were originally jointed for dozens of miles were
, no one survived..."
"It was this scene that made me abandon my suspicion of King Huainan. Perhaps it was not that the defense line deployed by King Huainan was negligent, but that this line of defense had long been secretly breached by the bandits..."
Hearing this, Chen Shen smiled noncommittally: "Haha, maybe these 100,000 people died on purpose to show you, grandpa?"
This seemingly careless reply immediately made Chen Zangfeng tremble all over!
If that's the case, then...
But then, the ancient old man shook his head in denial: "No way... As the saying goes, a tiger's poison can't even eat its seeds."
"Those garrison troops are all the old troops of King Huainan. No matter how vicious he is, he will never be able to massacre so many of his own people. You know, that's a huge number of hundreds of thousands of people!"
"Grandpa, you love your soldiers as much as your own children, but that may not be the case for others."
Chen Shen talked eloquently: "The King of Huainan sits on one-third of the territory of Daxia, guards the South China Sea, and has more than a million warriors in armor?"
"But throughout the decades of fighting between him and the Taikou Kingdom, he always won less and lost more. In the end, you had to personally lead the Chen family's army to wipe his ass."
"If my prediction is correct, that old fox is trying to avoid the end of losing everything, so he deliberately loses more than he wins."
"I'm thinking that King Huainan's ambition may not end there. Otherwise, how could his clan general Xia Lie dare to disobey the emperor's authority and intervene in the Hundred Schools League?"
The young man's eloquence made everyone stunned. Chen Xiaohai asked weakly: "Is this also your intuition?"
