There was an explosion, followed by sporadic gunshots.
Cheng Qingxin's expression changed, and he stood up regardless of the bruises on his face:
"Father!"
"Let all tribesmen strictly guard the tribe's territory and not go out!" Cheng Benhe immediately ordered, "The tribesmen in Pukou District will immediately abandon the affairs at hand and return to the tribe's territory. Those in the main city will find a place to take refuge nearby as soon as possible and wait for instructions from the tribe."
"Qingyuan, contact the Hejian Xing clan immediately! Qingxin, direct the clan guards to go out and block Xiangshan Road, and no vehicles or pedestrians will be allowed to pass through!"
After a series of orders, all the senior members of the family left, leaving only the ordinary clan members who were still discussing. Cheng Benhe then turned around and said to Princess Nankang:
"Your Highness, there seems to be a sudden change outside. It would be better for you to stay in our clan for a while."
"No problem." Princess Nankang waved her hand.
Normally, when there was chaos in the city, she would immediately go to the community to find Cheng Jinyang.
But now, the Cheng family's clan in the capital city was probably one of the safest places in the entire Pukou District, so she felt relieved and agreed to Cheng Benhe's invitation.
"You two should stay away from here for a while." Cheng Benhe turned around and said to the two girls, "We will send a contact notification to the Wang family in Taiyuan and the Xing family in Hejian."
"I have no problem." Xing Yunzhi looked at Wang Wanrou and asked, "You..."
After all, you, Miss Wang, are a daughter of the fifth surname, but this time you are staying in the Cheng family of the divine capital, a fifth-rank family. Will the Wang family in Taiyuan become suspicious?
"It's okay with me." Wang Wanrou said with a smile.
"Okay." Cheng Benhe called Cheng Yuexian from the crowd in the distance, "Send His Highness, the two guests, and your cousin to Chongben Hall for a temporary stay."
"I'll go guard the front gate of the tribe." Cheng Benhe said in a deep voice.
Cheng Yuexian was immediately worried. After all, her grandfather was the only fifth-grade superpower in the clan. If something happened during the turmoil... But the clan leader and others were not here, and she, a junior, could not say much, so she could only worry.
He nodded and turned around to guide everyone.
Cheng Jinyang followed his cousin and everyone into the back hall of the Chongben Hall. The decoration here was elegant and warm, and there were all tables, chairs, and coffee tables. It was obviously a place where the Cheng family in the capital of God entertained guests and discussed matters. Ordinary tribesmen were not allowed in.
"You guys can rest here now, I'll get you some tea." Cheng Yuexian invited the four of them to sit down and hurried to the back door.
As soon as the cousin left, the surrounding atmosphere suddenly became sinister, making Cheng Jinyang suddenly feel bad.
Sister Xinnan, Princess of Nankang, was looking at Wang Wanrou with narrowed eyes.
Wang Wanrou covered her mouth silently and yawned, as if she didn't feel the malicious gaze cast by the princess at all.
Xing Yunzhi sat next to her with a calm face and said nothing, but Cheng Jinyang seemed to be able to hear her voice, as if she was urging and shouting happily in her heart:
Fight! Fight!
"Why are we sitting here?" So he could only break the atmosphere and said casually, "We can also participate in the battle, right?"
"The rules of the family are that only those of seventh rank and above can participate in military operations." Xing Yunzhi whispered, "Eighth and ninth ranks under the age of thirty are all reserve forces. They will not be sent to the battlefield by the family unless it is absolutely necessary."
"Jinyang, the family is naturally very protective of young people like you." Princess Nankang said lazily, twirling her long golden hair with her fingers, "In the Sima family, as long as you are over twenty, you can go on missions.
"
"The Taiyuan Wang family will never send their children into danger." Wang Wanrou said lightly.
The three answers represent three completely different family management ideas. The Sima family tries to extract the maximum value from the clan members, the Cheng family and the Xing family provide limited protection to the weak, and the Taiyuan Wang family simply avoids the war with all members.
Reflected in the actual level of combat power, sister Xinnan is very good at playing with guns. Although she has never been seen to actually take action, judging from the lightning-fast gun draw to intimidate the Cheng clan members, it is estimated that the actual combat ability will not be weak.
.
He and Ah Zhi's fighting ability is so-so. Although they have certain powers, they have not received military training. When encountering a crisis, they have to use their brains to avert danger.
Miss Wang is simply a scumbag. In last night's nightmare, she was completely dependent on two people for protection. She was out of breath even when she ran away. In reality, she would probably be of no use.
Cheng Jinyang was deep in thought when he suddenly heard Princess Nankang say with a smile:
"Jinyang, if you have a chance next time, shall I teach you how to play with a gun?"
Playing with guns? Okay, then when you encounter monsters approaching you in nightmares, you won’t have to fight to the death for injuries.
He was about to agree when he heard Xing Yunzhi say:
"For people with superpowers, their firearms shooting skills are enough to protect themselves. What's the point of becoming a sharpshooter? Besides, when my Jinyang reaches the peak of the ninth level, he can use [Qiong Biluo] to fly freely in the open air.
No matter how many gunmen there are in the area, it will be difficult to hit him. So instead of learning to shoot firearms, it is better to spend your time mastering algorithms and proficiency in special abilities."
"Does Miss Wang think so too?" Princess Nankang turned her eyes and asked with a smile.
"Ju Zhi." Wang Wanrou said calmly.
This allusion comes from "Yan Zi Chun Qiu·Za Xia No. 10". Oranges in the south of the Yangtze River are oranges, and in the north of the Yangtze River are tangerines. Although the leaves are similar, the taste of the fruits is completely different.
Miss Wang's words are alluding to the fact that Cheng Jinyang is a person with superpowers after all, so he should use the family's superpower training methods. Otherwise, if he follows others and imitates others, he will be like oranges in Jiangbei, sour and tasteless.
Princess Nankang was silent for a moment, and soon retrieved this allusion through the neural database, and understood what the other party wanted to express.
Although she was on Xing Yunzhi's side, Miss Wang only used two words to express it, which showed that she had no intention of communicating with herself at this time.
How should I put it? Should I say that she is truly worthy of being a girl with the fifth surname? As long as she is not interested in someone, she can ignore even members of the royal family and deal with them casually.
So she smiled charmingly again, this time with murderous intent, and locked onto Wang Wanrou opposite her.
Miss Wang suddenly felt a little uncomfortable. The way the other person was looking at her... not only was there no smile in it, but there was also a vague and chilling feeling of threat, just like the one that was everywhere in the nightmare last night.
So dangerous.
So she frowned slightly and said:
"If I were you, I wouldn't stay here long."
"Why?" Princess Nankang was still smiling.
Miss Wang did not answer, but Princess Nankang frowned slightly, as if she suddenly thought of something, her face changed slightly.
"Jinyang." She turned her head and said with concern, "I have something to do today and I have to leave first. Since Cheng Benhe has spoken, no one from the Cheng family in the capital city dares to touch you."
"You stay here and don't go out. I'll come back to you after I resolve the matter in a few days."
After saying that, she hurriedly stood up and walked out of the hall.
