Chapter 7 Daylight Strength

The great commercial capital is bustling, with countless business travelers traveling through the city. On the northwest side of the capital, a gray mansion stands. Although it looks simple, among the houses, it stands out like a flock of chickens, giving off a unique look.

His character is noble and elegant.

The cold wind was howling, and a tall sycamore tree stood beside the mansion. With the sound of the horse-drawn carriage, beside the sycamore tree, Chen Shaojun waved his sleeves and got out of the carriage.

"Finally home!"

Looking at the familiar courtyard in front of him, Chen Shaojun was filled with emotion. Looking at this low-key and simple mansion in front of him, who could believe that it was the mansion of Chen Zongxi, the Minister of Civil Affairs.

The great Shang Dynasty was full of treasures, and the rewards given to officials at all levels were always high. My father was a third-grade official. According to the rules of the court, it was supposed to be a gorgeous mansion, but my father refused without hesitation.

"What are you doing! Have your conscience been eaten by dogs? Have you forgotten what the master and the young master did to you in the past? Now that the Chen family is in trouble, you not only betrayed the master and the young master, but also took the opportunity to rob the Chen family's property. You are like pigs and dogs.

Why not! Wait until the master and the eldest master come back and see what you do!"

Just when Chen Shaojun raised his head and looked at the entire courtyard, an angry girl's voice came from inside.

"Honglian, don't talk nonsense. How is this a betrayal? The master and the eldest young master are already in prison, and the Chen family is in decline. Even if we don't take it, the confiscation of the Chen family will still fall into the hands of others in a few days.

, rather than doing this, it’s better to give us an advantage!”

"Silly girl! What else is there in the Chen family that is worthy of your nostalgia? Are you still counting on that useless idiot young master? Really, even if you don't think about yourself, don't stop us! You like the Chen family so much,

Just go die with them!"



There was a noise in the courtyard, and I don't know how many people were making noise inside. Upon hearing this sound, the faces of Uncle Jiang and Chen Shaojun became extremely ugly.

"Let's go in!"

Chen Shaojun flicked his sleeves and walked in first with a livid face.



The courtyard was covered with fallen leaves and was in a mess. Just under the largest sycamore tree in the middle, a girl in red fell to the ground. She clenched her fists, her clothes were messy, and her clean face was bruised in several places.

She looked at the opposite side stubbornly, her eyes firm.

Opposite her, there were a group of servants, maids and old ladies in green clothes, each holding various things belonging to the Chen family, including calligraphy and paintings, inkstones, bonsai, tables and chairs, and even boxes for clothes.

The leader was an aggressive-looking steward in his thirties.

"Honglian, you'd better show some understanding to me. If you stop us again, don't blame us for being rude!"

The head steward said fiercely.

"That's right! Get out of our way!"

"Stop being polite to her, let's all come together and teach her a lesson!"

Behind him, a group of servants of the Chen family stared fiercely at the red lotus on the ground, glaring angrily. Some of them had even rolled up their sleeves and were about to take action.

"Let me see who of you dares!"

Suddenly, a loud shout came, and everyone was startled and turned around.

"Which bastard dares to take care of..."

A group of people were about to start shouting and scolding when they suddenly saw the handsome young man with cold eyes standing at the gate. Their hearts skipped a beat and their expressions froze. They swallowed back the words they were about to curse.

"Master!"

Someone called out and revealed the identity of the young man.

At this time, Chen Shaojun's eyes were cold and intimidating. It was completely different from the gentle look in everyone's memory in the past. He had a fearful feeling that was unprecedented in the past. Even the head steward was shocked when he saw Chen Shaojun's eyes.

For a moment, he couldn't help but lower his head subconsciously, losing the arrogance he had before.

"You are so brave!"

Chen Shaojun walked from the courtyard door, feeling angry in his heart. Especially when he saw Hong Lian with messy clothes and pale face on the ground, he felt even more angry.

When his father was around, these people were still courteous and polite in front of him. But who would have thought that just after something happened to the Chen family, these people would add insult to injury and reveal their true nature.

There is nothing better than this in terms of warmth and coldness of human relationships!

Chen Shaojun glanced at everyone fiercely, walked over quickly, and helped Hong Lian up from the ground.

"Master, you are finally here!"

Seeing Chen Shaojun, Hong Lian's eyes suddenly turned red. She rushed over and hugged Chen Shaojun, as if she had found her backbone:

"These ungrateful things, if the young master comes a moment later, I'm afraid the entire Chen family will be emptied by them!"

After saying this, Honglian burst into tears of grievance.

"Honglian, don't worry, as long as I'm here, I want to see which one of them dares to make a mistake!"

Chen Shaojun turned his head, looked at the people in front of him, and laughed angrily.

In the courtyard, everyone had never seen Chen Shaojun like this before. When he glanced at him, everyone was frightened and became weaker and weaker. Everyone was not afraid of Chen Shaojun originally. In the Chen family, Chen Shaojun has always been gentle and the most useless.

No one looked down upon him at all.

That's why I dare to make such trouble in the Chen family.

But now Chen Shaojun seems to have changed. His aura is fierce and terrifying, which reminds people of Chen Zongxi, the always stern head of the family. Everyone was stunned for a moment and could not speak.

"Young Master, this is no wonder for us. If something happens to the Master and the Eldest Master, it's not a big deal for us to take something as severance pay. Isn't it also right? Even if this matter is brought to the court, we will still be justified. Everyone said

Yes or no?"

Finally a voice broke the silence, the leader of the steward said. He still looked grumpy at first, but the more he spoke, the more confident he became.

"Yes, that's what Manager Li said!"

With Manager Li taking the lead in provoking trouble, everyone became bolder and joined in.

"Huh, if that's the case, then let's sue the court!"

Chen Shaojun snorted coldly, took a step forward suddenly, and a powerful momentum burst out from his whole body:

"It's just that something happened to my father and eldest brother, and the Chen family hasn't fallen yet. You villains, one by one, started stealing the family property in front of me. The court's laws are strict, Jing Zhaoyin's side

I have always hated people who are greedy and want glory, but I want to see how they will deal with it!"

"Buzz!"

Hearing these words, the originally lively crowd suddenly fell silent. Everyone looked at Chen Shaojun on the steps, and their faces were extremely pale. Even the leader, Manager Li, had a look of fear on his face.

The laws of the Great Shang Dynasty were very strict, and Jing Zhaoyin was a well-known cruel official in the court. If Chen Shaojun really sued the court, everyone would not only suffer physical pain, but also be imprisoned!

"Master, I, we..."

The leader, Manager Li, looked worried and looked at Chen Shaojun with fear.

"Get out of here now!"

Chen Shaojun flicked his sleeves and scolded sternly.

Upon hearing these words, Manager Li did not make any move, but the others quickly fled outside as if they had been granted amnesty.

Manager Li was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly blended into the crowd and fled outside.

"Wait a moment!"

Suddenly, there was a loud shout, like thunder exploding. When they heard Chen Shaojun's voice, everyone trembled and stopped quickly.

"Put your stuff down!"

Chen Shaojun said coldly:

"Also, remember, starting from today, you will have nothing to do with my Chen family!"

Chen Shaojun's voice was resounding.

With a crash, everyone finally reacted, put down their things, and rushed out.

"Master, these people are ungrateful. Letting them go is too easy for them."

Seeing those people leaving, Honglian clenched her fists hard, feeling unwilling to do so.

"never mind."

Chen Shaojun was silent for a long time. When he could no longer hear the footsteps of those people behind him, he spoke:

"They can be ruthless, but our Chen family cannot be unjust."

"Master..."

Honglian originally wanted to stop Chen Shaojun, but when she heard these words, she was stunned and speechless.

"Hongren, let's go in."



At this time, outside the Chen family's residence, in a remote corner, a group of servants who came out of the Chen family gathered together. After looking around, they did not return to their respective residences, but turned into another cold alley not far away.

.

In the alley, a boy of sixteen or seventeen years old, dressed in rich clothes, with his back to everyone, was waiting silently.

"did you find it?"

The young man spoke suddenly with a cold voice.

"Master, we have searched the entire Chen family, but we have not found the white jade spring and autumn pen you mentioned."

A group of people lowered their heads, looked uneasy, and looked very afraid of the young man.

"What?"

Hearing these words, the young man in brocade turned his head fiercely, with a ferocious look on his face, as if he wanted to choose someone to devour:

"A bunch of rubbish! Chen Zongxi's white jade Spring and Autumn Brush Pen is right under your nose every day. Can't you find it?"

A group of people were trembling, their heads lowered, but no one dared to argue.

"Get out of here! Chen Shaojun, I really underestimate you. It looks like I still have to take action myself!"

The young man in brocade clothes had eyes as cold as ice. He glanced in the direction of the Chen Mansion, threw down a few coins and quickly disappeared.



In the room, there is a square black lacquered appliqué table with a miniature porcelain cup on it. In the porcelain cup, tea is steaming.

Chen Shaojun was sitting next to the black lacquered decal table, looking at the empty surroundings, feeling filled with emotion.

My father was more or less a member of the Household Department, but who would have thought that such a drastic change would lead to such a situation. In the huge Chen family, there were only three masters and servants left.

"When I solve the crown prince's problem, no matter what, I will definitely restore this place to its original state."

Chen Shaojun said secretly in his heart.

After settling Jiang Bo and Hong Lian, Chen Shaojun quickly returned to his room. When there was no one around, Chen Shaojun closed the door and window, and the room immediately became quiet.

"I have to find a way to improve my martial arts!"

Chen Shaojun sat cross-legged on the floor of the room, thoughts going on and on in his mind. The servant incident was just a small twist. For Chen Shaojun, the top priority was to improve his martial arts as soon as possible and rescue his father and elder brother.

"It is much easier for a weapon refiner to control a magical weapon than for a warrior. But even if it is easy, the Qi must be cultivated in the body."

As a true disciple of the Beidou Immortal Sect in the Immortal Realm, Chen Shaojun knew a vast array of techniques. In the blink of an eye, countless techniques flew past his mind. Soon, Chen Shaojun locked onto one among thousands of techniques.

The method of practicing Qi.

"Bai Ri Jin!"

Among all the foundation-building techniques, this is recognized as the most amazing foundation-building technique. For ordinary people, if they have high talent, fifty days is enough. The powerful foundation-building techniques in the fairy world generally require about ten days.

But this day-power only takes three days to enable a mortal to complete the foundation-building process.

No one knows the origin of this technique. Chen Shaojun got it from a person who asked him to make weapons. The entire Bai Rijin only has a few hundred words, and it was recorded on a medieval fragment. Chen Shaojun originally

I didn’t want it, but because of the other party’s pleading and the fact that the technique was really mysterious, I reluctantly agreed.

After all, Chen Shaojun was already an immortal at that time and did not need to build a foundation at all. This kind of technique was useless to him.

Chen Shaojun also didn't expect that the most inconspicuous foundation-building technique in the article would actually come into play at this time.

"What a mistake!"

Chen Shaojun said secretly in his heart.
