The five hundred and eleventh chapter is not what it used to be (2)
When they left the Feihu Trail, they didn't realize it. After leaving the exit of the 500-mile Feihu Trail, Chen Xiong and his entourage felt that the journey was difficult without the convenient and fast rail transportation.
It’s all about how tiring it is to ride a horse, but compared with the convenient, fast and comfortable rail passenger transportation before, it just feels like: poor!
By the time I returned to Beidicheng, it was already a month later.
When he returned home, there was naturally a lot of complaints from his beloved wife. She thought he was going to abandon her after not seeing her for more than a year.
Chen Xiong quickly comforted him, saying that he had been honest and responsible in the past year, and he didn't have the courage to act recklessly with his third brother.
After finally appeasing his beloved wife who had been staying at home for a year, and playing with the young son who was able to walk for a while, he finally made the young son, who looked like a stranger, feel close to him.
Only then did he have time to run to the Zhenbeigong Mansion to meet him and inform him that he was back. Unfortunately, his father Chen Longcheng was not at the manor.
The two direct brothers are quite enthusiastic, but unfortunately the three brothers' feelings are really average and they have nothing in common.
After talking for a few words about the situation on the Flying Fox Trail without any embarrassment, he took the initiative to say goodbye and pay a visit to his biological mother, Aunt Zhao, which naturally led to another lively meeting.
It wasn't until the third day that Chen Xiong had time to rush to Zhao's house and find his uncle Zhao Ranruo.
Zhao Ranruo was not surprised by his nephew's visit. He knew the news of Chen Xiong's return to Beidicheng immediately.
"What's going on, little uncle, that the elder is urging you so urgently?"
After a few jokes, Chen Xiong went straight to the topic after the strange feeling disappeared, and asked curiously: "Didn't you hear that Pegasus Hall is in trouble?"
It was he and his uncle who joined the Beidi Pegasus Hall branch and became peripheral disciples.
Not to mention that the younger uncle is still the head of the Zhao family, he must know some secret information.
"Isn't it just a matter of martial arts?"
Zhao Ranruo's tone was calm, obviously not interested in this, and he said leisurely: "I don't know what's going on. Recently, many gangs in the mainland have sent their capable personnel to grab territory and expand their influence!"
Speaking of this, he sneered and said: "Normally, Pegasus Hall has laid out the Northland early, and its advantages are quite obvious. However, it has only lasted for less than two years, and it is hard to hold on!"
After a pause, he glanced at Chen Xiong lightly and said with a smile: "The reason why I call you back so urgently is just in case!"
"What if?"
Chen Xiong frowned slightly and had a bad feeling in his heart.
"What else could it be?"
Zhao Ranruo said directly: "If I really can't handle it, I can only use your connections to ask the Zhenbei Government to intervene forcefully and help pull things off!"
this……
Chen Xiong was stunned, could he still operate like this?
Zhao Ranruo didn't speak either, and the atmosphere suddenly became dull.
After a while, Chen Xiong suddenly said: "Didn't I say that Pegasus Hall is the strongest gang in the west of Daqi? Why are there no supporting experts here?"
"Support!"
Zhao Ranruo looked incomprehensible and said leisurely: "One is a peak innate, two are late-stage innate, and five are in the middle-stage innate. Their work is quite luxurious!"
As he spoke, he shook his head and said: "Unfortunately, during this year, more masters from other gangs have poured in, and Beidicheng is very critical. Pegasus Hall does not allow other gangs to gain a foothold here. It is right for the pressure to be high!"
Chen Xiong was speechless, shook his head and sighed: "My nephew really doesn't know what to say!"
Naturally, I feel unhappy in my heart, but I don't want to turn against Pegasus Hall. It's just inevitable that I will have some troubles.
"So, just relax, kid!"
Zhao Ranruo suggested: "No matter how much pressure the Pegasus Hall branch has, it has nothing to do with you!"
"You can't say that. After all, we have practiced the high-level internal skills and mental methods provided by Pegasus Hall. There is no need to stand by and watch indifferently when it is time to take action!"
Shaking his head, Chen Xiong quickly adjusted his mentality.
He was often hit hard at Flying Fox Trail. The exercise method devised by his third brother, Chen Ying, also tempered his will. Such things were not enough to make his mentality unbalanced.
"Your kid's mentality is quite good!"
Glancing at Chen Xiong out of curiosity, Zhao Ranruo smiled and said, "It seems like your kid's stay at Feihu Trail was not in vain this year!"
By the way, in the past, Chen Xiong had no independent say and basically followed Zhao Ranruo's words to join in. Now it seems that things have changed a lot.
“Of course it’s not in vain!”
Speaking of this, Chen Xiong showed full confidence on his face and said with a proud smile: "Uncle, you definitely don't know how much progress I have made this year!"
"Oh, how much progress can be made?"
Zhao Ranruo became interested, looked at Chen Xiong carefully for a while, sensed it again, shook his head and said: "I can't tell!"
Chen Xiong smiled and said: "My uncle has not made much progress in one year, and he is still lingering in the early stage of innateness!"
"Look at what you said, kid, cultivating the innate realm is not easy!"
As he spoke, Zhao Ranruo opened his eyes wide and said in surprise: "Can you see my level of cultivation?"
"Of course!"
Chen Xiong proudly commented on Zhao Ranruo's condition carefully, and finally shook his head and said: "My uncle's cultivation speed is a bit slow!"
"It seems like you, kid, learned a lot at Flying Fox Trail!"
Zhao Ranruo didn't take it seriously and said with a smile: "Tell me, what level of strength has your boy reached? Why can't I see it?"
If you could see it, wouldn’t my cultivation this year have been in vain?
I secretly cursed in my heart, but I was quite proud of it.
Influenced by Chen Ying, Chen Xiong paid special attention to his own body and the control of his Qi. Whenever he had time, he would strengthen his control of his Qi.
After practicing for more than a year, I have now restrained all my aura.
Although it is not yet possible to make the whole body Hunyuanruyi without showing any flaws, it is not possible for a being like Zhao Ranruo, who is not even at the peak of the early innate cultivation level, to be able to see the clues.
"I won't say it for fear of scaring my uncle!"
He smiled and said: "I want to take a closer look at the situation of the Pegasus Hall branch. If my uncle is free recently, how about we go to the Pegasus Hall branch and take a look?"
Zhao Ranruo's eyes flashed, and he did not ask about Chen Xiong's cultivation level. He nodded and said with a smile: "Okay, anyway, I don't have anything special to deal with recently!"
We had a sumptuous lunch at Zhao's house and didn't return home until late in the evening.
At this time, he was very eager to try, feeling that the opportunity to make a name for himself was right in front of him.
While having dinner and chatting, my uncle mentioned the specific situation at the Pegasus Hall branch. Basically, colleagues from all walks of life would come to discuss and exchange ideas every now and then.
To say that the strength of the Pegasus Hall branch is not bad, and the masters supported by the headquarters are quite impressive in terms of quality and quantity.
It's a pity that the masters who come to challenge and compete are both more numerous and of higher quality.
Then there is nothing to say. The repeated defeats in the competitions have had a great impact on the reputation of the Pegasus Hall branch, and have even begun to shake their foundation here in Beidi City.
This matter must not be tolerated...
When talking about this, Zhao Ranruo's expression was a little gloomy. He knew without asking that this guy should also be involved, and then he was severely hit.
Even the peak innate and late-stage innate masters who are in charge of the Pegasus Hall branch can't please the masters. What's the use of him, an early-stage innate being, coming forward?
Obviously, my uncle was worried that he would follow in the same footsteps, and he told him not to be impulsive. Even if he had to ask his father, Chen Longcheng, to intervene, he should not easily slap someone in the face.
Fortunately, my uncle Zhao Ranruo has a special status and is not a gangster, otherwise the Zhao family would be affected.
However, after seeing many masters, Zhao Ranruo's mood was obviously affected, and he felt weak when he mentioned the Pegasus Hall branch.
Regarding this, Chen Xiong, the nephew, could not say much except to comfort him.
You can't just slap your chest to show that he will definitely vent his anger on your uncle, right?
Even though his strength is no longer what it used to be, it doesn't mean that his uncle needs his sympathy, and the Zhao family in the North obviously doesn't need it either.
…
Chen Xiong didn't put on airs, and he didn't have such a habit.
After understanding the situation, he and his uncle would go to the Pegasus Hall branch to report the next day.
"Junior Brother Xiong is here!"
The appearance of Chen Xiong made the atmosphere at the Pegasus Hall branch, which was a bit depressing and dull, a little more lively.
Several senior executives from the Pegasus Hall branch hurriedly invited Chen Ying and Zhao Ranruo to sit down in the main hall.
Surprisingly, there are still outsiders here.
There are more than a dozen gangsters, each with a strong aura exposed, and together they give people a huge mental pressure. They are obviously not easy to provoke.
Chen Xiong just glanced briefly and clearly sensed the strength of these guys. The worst ones were at the early stage of innateness.
The strongest ones have two innate peaks!
Gee, when did innate warriors become so worthless?
He and Zhao Ranruo did not overwhelm the guests, and after greeting the senior management of Pegasus Hall, they found an inconspicuous place in a corner to sit down and quietly watched the next developments.
Soon, he learned the reason for the incident from the rather explosive conversation.
It is similar to what my uncle said, and it should be regarded as a normal Jianghu routine. This wave of Jianghu sects from the hinterland of Daqi, if they want to open a church in Beidi, they must first visit the "local snake" of Pegasus Hall.
It was obvious that Pegasus Hall did not welcome them very much, and there was a bit of criticism and dissatisfaction in their words. The visiting heroes were not vegetarians either. Since the words did not make sense, let's see the truth.
"Just watch, don't get involved easily!"
Zhao Ranruo grabbed Chen Xiong and walked to the corner of the martial arts training ground, not forgetting to remind him in a low voice.
Chen Xiong nodded, but he didn't agree in his heart.
At Flying Fox Trail, whenever I have free time to wander outside, I will basically go to the ring to show off my martial arts skills, otherwise I will be out of tune with the entire environment.
Having lived in Feihu Trail for more than a year, Chen Xiong has long been accustomed to the atmosphere of flourishing martial arts there, and he also understands the importance of communicating and competing with experts of the same level if he wants to improve his cultivation.
It’s okay if you haven’t met them, but since you have met them, there’s no reason not to join in.
And opportunities came to you very quickly.
We were having a good sparring session in the martial arts arena, but something unexpected happened suddenly. A big knife full of internal energy flew straight towards Chen Xiong in the corner...
