An Understated Dominance Chinese Novel

Where did this old monster come from? !

“You little bastard, even your director Feng Yangshu doesn’t dare to talk to me like this. Who the hell do

you think you are?” The one-eyed old man sneered.

“Cough, cough, cough…”

Wu Hongda clutched his chest, coughing violently, with unbelievable horror on his face: “You… who are

you?”

A booger almost killed him. This strength is simply too abnormal.

The most important thing is that the other party is not afraid of Zhen Wusi at all, and even dares to call

the chief by his name.

Obviously not a general person.

“Prick up your ears and listen carefully. I won’t change my surname even if I’m going to do it. That’s the

case with Kuang Nansheng!” the one-eyed old man said, picking his nostrils.

“Kuan Nansheng?”

Wu Hongda was taken aback for a moment, then his complexion changed drastically, he was terrified,

and said in a trembling voice: “You, you…are you the great master who caused Yanjing to be full of

storms back then—a drunken maniac?!”

Kuang Nansheng, nicknamed the Immortal of Wine.

Because he was addicted to alcohol, he was later called an alcoholic.

Ten years ago, an accident occurred in the Forbidden City of Yanjing.

That night, the entire Zhenwu Division came out in full force.

The director, Feng Yangshu, personally led the team and led a large number of martial arts masters to

encircle and suppress several criminals.

And alcoholism is one of them.

They thought that this was a crushing battle and that they could easily complete the task.

However, after the actual confrontation, they realized that they were wrong, and very wrong.

In that battle, the Zhenwu Division suffered heavy losses. Director Feng Yangshu was seriously injured

and the deputy director was killed on the spot.

Chapter: 2187

All the major elders, major protectors, and major hall masters were all killed or injured.

This is the only failure of Zhenwu Division since its establishment, and it has become a taboo that

cannot be mentioned.

So after hearing the name of alcoholic, the nightmare memory of that night came to mind again.

So much so that his body began to tremble uncontrollably.

Wu Hongda was stunned.

The whole person was trembling and frightened.

The appearance of the drunkard revealed the deepest fear in his heart.

I still remember that ten years ago, he was just a small person in Zhenwu Division.

After receiving the siege mission that night, he was high-spirited, full of blood, and very excited. He

always felt that his chance to make a name for himself had arrived.

As a result, when he actually arrived on the battlefield, he realized how cruel the reality was.

He saw with his own eyes that his companions were torn to pieces by swords and swords.

He saw with his own eyes that his hall master was decapitated with a sword.

He saw with his own eyes that those powerful men who were so high up in the past that he looked up

to and even feared were like chickens and dogs, dying at the first touch.

Those bloody scenes and scenes that shocked him to the point of fear became a nightmare that he

could never get rid of in his life!

Whenever I think of it, I can’t stop shaking.

In fact, if he hadn’t been lucky that night, coupled with his quick wits, he fell to the ground and

pretended to be dead, he probably wouldn’t be alive now.

After this battle, although he was promoted, he was also frightened.

Any ambitions were gone.

He had thought that the nightmare was gone and would never appear again.

Unexpectedly, today, he saw the God of Death here again.

As a result, all the terrible memories of the past awakened the hidden fear in his body again.

“What? An alcoholic? This bad old man is actually an alcoholic? How is that possible? Isn’t he already

dead?”

“My god! The wine maniac is still alive, and he is in the south of the Yangtze River. If this news gets

out, the entire Dragon Kingdom will be in turmoil!”

“Who is the alcoholic? Is he very powerful?”

“Nonsense! The wine maniac is a grand master, one of the top ten powerhouses in the world, and a

figure standing on top of the world. Do you think he is powerful?”

“What the hell! Are you so stupid? Aren’t the top ten in the world invincible?”

“…”

At this moment, it was not just Wu Hongda who was frightened.

After knowing the identity of the drunkard, the masters of the various sects all showed expressions of

awe.

No matter how arrogant or arrogant a person is, at this moment, they all have to bow their heads.

Chapter: 2188

For them, an existence of the level of a Grand Master can no longer be called a human being, but a

god with the power of life and death!

“Hey, who is that…”

The drunkard yelled at Ng Hongda, who was so frightened that his legs weakened and he knelt down

directly on the ground, trembling and said: “Drunkard! I was blind just now. I don’t know Taishan.

Please forgive me.” Remember the villain, forgive my unintentional offense!”

After finishing speaking, he knocked his head heavily on the ground a few times, making a “bang bang”

sound.

That panicked look seemed like a frightened quail.

“Um?”

The drunkard raised his eyebrows slightly, with a strange expression on his face.

He just yelled. As for being so scared?

Are all the people in the Zhenwu Division so hopeless now?

“Okay! I’m in a good mood today, so I don’t care about it like you.”

The drunkard waved his hand generously, and said flatly: “When we go back, Feng Yangshu will bring

a sentence to tell him to wash his ass and wait for the grass. Now, the people who brought you get out

immediately!”

“Okay, okay… let’s get out now!”

If Wu Hongda was granted amnesty, he kowtowed a few more times and immediately fled with a group

of subordinates without even daring to look back.

As the saying goes, those who know the current affairs are heroes, as long as they can save their lives,

what is the loss of a little dignity?

Besides, looking at the whole world, how many people can live with dignity in front of the alcoholic?

“I bailed out this kid today. Is there any one of you who is still dissatisfied?”

After driving away Wu Hongda, Jiu Kuang’s eyes suddenly turned, and he turned to the masters of the

various sects.

A group of people were frightened and frightened, and their souls were lost.

They really didn’t expect that behind Lu Chen, there was such a big mountain as the drunk man.

No wonder the other party has such strength at such a young age.

It turned out that there was a great master teaching in secret.

“Why are you silent? Looking at how you are wielding swords and guns, do you want to practice with

me?”

The drunkard picked out a piece of boogers and rolled it into a ball between his fingers.

The seemingly casual movement carries an invisible majesty.

You know, this ball of boogers is enough to give a martial arts master a fatal blow.

“Senior Drunkard, it was purely a misunderstanding just now, and we didn’t mean to offend you.”

The head of Haifengtang reacted quickly, and he took the lead in saluting with fists in his arms, with a

very respectful attitude.

“That’s right, that’s right! We are all obeying the orders of Zhen Wusi. We really have no choice but to

ask for forgiveness, Senior Drunkard.” The head of Xing Luo Sect also stood up and apologized

immediately.

“Hey! What are you doing standing still? Put your weapons down quickly. If you hurt Brother Lu, I’m not

done with you!”

The patriarch of Qingyang Sect was even more sensible, and angrily yelled at the warriors around him,

trying his best to defend Lu Chen.

Chapter: 2189

Everyone woke up from a dream and took back their weapons.

The previously tense atmosphere eased instantly.

Even the head of the Zhenwu Division has run away, how dare they act presumptuously in front of the

alcoholic?

“Senior Drunkard, what happened today was indeed an accident. As the deputy leader of the Martial

Alliance, I cannot absolve myself of the blame.”

At this time, Chen Yuanwei suddenly stood up and said loudly: “To express my apology, I am willing to

recommend Grandmaster Lu as the new leader of the martial arts alliance!”

As soon as these words came out, there was a sensation in the audience.

“What? Let Lu Chen be the leader of the alliance? Is that right?”

“The martial arts world has always valued strength. Lu Chen defeated Lei Wanjun and became the new

alliance leader. I think there is no problem.”

“Although this boy is very strong, his qualifications are too low. It is not a good thing to be in a high

position at a young age.”

“That’s right! This guy is cruel and unreasonable. If he becomes the leader, the entire Jiangnan martial

arts will suffer!”

“…”

Chen Yuanwei’s suggestion caused everyone to whisper.

Some people support it, and some people oppose it.

Especially some of the top leaders of the sects frowned.

Jianghu is not only about fighting and killing, but also about human relations.

Being powerful does not allow you to be in charge of the Wumeng. You have to know how to be flexible

and seek benefits for everyone.

In their view, Chase Lu is too young and obviously does not have this ability.

“Everyone be quiet…”

Chen Yuanwei stretched out his hand to press down, and continued to speak: “This proposal is my

decision after careful consideration. Now the Wumeng League is rotten and needs to be replaced with

fresh blood. Only a genius like Lu Zongshi can change the situation and lead the Wumeng League. Let

the alliance move towards new glory!”

“I agree!”

Zuo Xinyue suddenly raised her hand and said loudly: “Grandmaster Lu is young, promising and

powerful. No one is more suitable than him. I support Grandmaster Lu as the leader of the martial arts

alliance!”

“We support it too!”

Many young warriors stood up.

They are full of passion and believe in strength.

Since Lu Chen defeated Lei Wanjun, he is qualified to become the leader of the martial arts alliance.

“Why are only these people supporting? Are the rest of you dumb?” Jiu Kuang said coldly.

As he spoke, his sharp eyes swept across the faces of the heads of various sects.

A group of people were so frightened that their eyelids twitched and they broke out in cold sweat.

“Grandmaster Lu’s strength is obvious to everyone. He is more than enough to serve as the leader of

the martial arts alliance!”

“Yes, yes! Grandmaster Lu is unparalleled in the world and no one can match him. I support him with

both hands!”

Chapter: 2190

“The Martial League cannot be without a leader, we all support Lu Zongshi as the leader!”

“…”

Under the power of the drunkard, all the major sects came out to support him.

The general trend is that even if they don’t want to, they can only bow their heads.

“Master Lu, from now on, Jiangnan martial arts will be honored only by you!”

Chen Yuanwei reacted quickly, immediately changed his address, and saluted Lu Chen with fists in his

hands, expressing his position.

“Greetings to Alliance Leader Lu!”

Zuo Xinyue clasped her fists with both hands and shouted.

“Greetings to Alliance Leader Lu!!”

All the warriors saluted and shouted in unison.

Its power was so huge that it shook the heavens and the earth and resounded throughout the sky.

Lasts forever.

Because of the appearance of the drunken maniac, the situation on the scene has undergone a

shocking reversal.

One second, Lu Chen, who was still a public enemy of the martial arts, was directly elected as the

leader of the martial arts alliance in the next second, attracting the worship of thousands of people.

The limelight lasted for a while.

Looking at the warriors saluting respectfully in the audience, Lu Chen had an expressionless face and

cold eyes.

There was no excitement, no excitement, just almost ridiculous irony.

Except for some warriors with a sense of justice, most of the people present were just outsiders, falling

on both sides.

Before, they were shouting and shouting, but now they are enthusiastic. The change before and after is

really making people laugh.

As for the martial arts leader or something, he has no interest at all.

He challenged Lei Wanjun purely for revenge and for justice.

“My abilities are limited, and I cannot afford the position of leader of the Jiangnan Wulin Alliance. You

can find someone else.” Lu Chen said loudly and refused directly.

“ah?”

Everyone was stunned when they heard this.

No one expected that Lu Chen would say such a sentence.

Are you kidding me?

Being the leader of the martial arts alliance is an honor coveted by countless people, and it is also the

highest pursuit of all warriors.

It not only represents status, but also has supreme power.

Looking at the entire martial arts world, there are countless sect leaders and martial arts masters who

are coveting this supreme position.

But Lu Chen was lucky. He not only didn’t know how to cherish the pie in the sky, but even refused it

outright.

Chapter: 2191

Isn’t this a brain problem? !

“Grandmaster Lu, looking at the entire Jiangnan, only you can hold the honor of being the leader of the

martial arts alliance.” Chen Yuanwei was a little surprised.

Isn’t publicly challenging Lei Wanjun just for fame and power?

As long as you become the leader of the martial arts alliance, you will be the supreme being who

responds to everyone. Do you want anything?

“Yes, Grandmaster Lu, you are the leader among our younger generation. We are all convinced to have

you as the leader of the martial arts alliance!” Zuo Xinyue followed suit.

She admired Lu Chen very much, so she really hoped that he would aspire to the supreme position.

But now, it’s only half a step away.

As long as Lu Chen is willing to lift his legs a little, he can directly reach the top and be admired by

thousands of people.

Why not?

“I appreciate your kindness, but I have no interest in the martial arts leader.”

Lu Chen shook his head slightly, and looked at Chen Yuanwei: “Vice leader Chen is powerful and has

outstanding prestige, and is more suitable than me. The position of leader of the martial arts is most

suitable for you.”

“this……”

Hearing this, Chen Yuanwei couldn’t help showing a troubled expression, but in fact he was secretly

delighted.

He naturally covets the position of leader, but Lu Chen’s performance just now is really amazing, and

he has a great master like Jiu Kuang as his backer.

Even though he has huge ambitions, he does not dare to compete for the leadership of the martial arts

alliance.

So he simply acted as a favor and offered to recommend Lu Chen.

It’s just that he didn’t expect that the other party would refuse.

What a surprise.

“Little guy, the title of leader of the martial arts alliance is somewhat useful. Do you really want to

consider it?” the drunkard asked with a yawn.

“Don’t think about it, I don’t have the time to take care of things in the world.”

Lu Chen was too lazy to talk nonsense, and started to grope around Lei Wanjun’s body, and soon

found a golden bead.

Astonishingly, it is the holy object of martial arts – Tian Lingzhu!

Lu Chen would naturally not miss such a top-quality treasure that can increase the speed of cultivation.

With the Heavenly Spirit Orb, I believe it won’t be long before he can truly break through to become a

grand master.

At that time, he can implement his revenge plan.

“Oh? There is still such a treasure hidden?”

Seeing this scene, Jiu Kuang couldn’t help showing surprise.

“Old drunkard, let’s go, go back and drink.”

After putting away the Heavenly Spirit Bead, Lu Chen ignored everyone and walked down the stage

step by step with the Sky Sword in hand.

Wherever they passed, the crowd dispersed automatically and gave way to a spacious road.

Chapter: 2192

Chase Lu’s powerful performance today convinced almost everyone.

Although many people don’t understand why Lu Chen didn’t become the leader of martial arts, but at

present, it is at least a good thing.

In particular, the leaders of the major sects are beginning to prepare to compete for the position of

leader.

It can be predicted that a new martial arts disturbance will appear soon.

“Oh, right……”

At this time, Lu Chen seemed to think of something, stopped suddenly, and looked sideways at Lei

Qianzhong: “Almost forgot, there is such a scourge as you.”

“You…what are you going to do?”

Lei Qianzhong’s expression changed, and a flash of panic flashed in his eyes.

“Since I entered the door, you have been shouting and shouting. If you don’t eliminate your threat, I

won’t be able to sleep.” Lu Chen looked indifferent.

Now that the two sides are fighting to the death, leaving Lei Qianzhong alive would undoubtedly be a

disaster.

“You, you, you…don’t mess around, I’m the elder of the Wumeng!”

Lei Qianzhong panicked and began to back away again and again.

He didn’t make a sound just now, just hoping to get away with it, but he was still targeted.

“I’ve killed the leader of the martial arts alliance, let alone an elder?”

Lu Chen sneered, and suddenly flicked his finger, and a silver needle shot out instantly.

Like lightning, it pierced directly into Lei Qianzhong’s eyebrows.

“you……”

Lei Qianzhong opened his mouth, and when he was about to say something, his body suddenly

trembled and he froze instantly.

Immediately afterwards, a drop of blood spilled from between the eyebrows.

Lei Qianzhong seemed to have been drained of his body and fell to the ground on the spot, losing all

his breath.

A pair of eyes stared like copper bells, and his face was full of fear and unwillingness.

Seeing this scene, Lei Qianzhong’s younger brothers were so frightened that their livers and

gallbladders were torn apart, and their souls flew out of their minds.

He knelt down directly on the ground and began to kowtow and beg for mercy.

Lu Chen didn’t pay attention. He turned his eyes and looked at Jiang Xiuzhen and the others, with a

strong murderous intent in his eyes.

“Um?”

Jiang Xiuzhen and the others immediately became nervous, and they all felt as if they were facing a

formidable enemy.

If Lu Chen wanted to settle old scores, they would have no choice but to fight to the death.

“Don’t be so nervous. I won’t kill you because someone has already booked your heads. I hope you

can take good care of yourself before the real nightmare comes.”

After saying a meaningful sentence, Chase Lu turned around and left without killing everyone.

It’s not because of his kindness, but because the lives of Jiang Xiuzhen and others must be taken by

Huang Yinyin herself.

Chapter: 2193

The hatred of killing one’s father is irreconcilable.

When Huang Yinyin returns from success, it will be the time for these hypocrites to die.

Lu Chen left, leaving everyone with a cold figure.

But the sensation he caused could not be subsided for a long time.

“It’s a pity that Brother Lu didn’t take over as the leader of the martial arts alliance, and he missed an

opportunity to become famous all over the world.” Lin Rong sighed softly.

She admired Lu Chen’s strength and character very much. It is really rare to have clear grievances and

grievances and not be moved by fame and fortune.

It’s just that the other party is too pure-hearted and ascetic, completely maverick.

“No, you are wrong. Lu Chen didn’t miss the opportunity, but simply disdains it.”

At this time, Zuo Xinyue, who was standing next to her, suddenly spoke. Her eyes were hot and her

face was full of admiration: “The honor that others dream of is completely within reach for Lu Chen.

This is the difference between ordinary people and kings!”

“In addition, there is another point. After today, the name of the young master is bound to resound

throughout the world.”

“So there is no need to prove anything, no need to advocate and build momentum, and no need for the

so-called title of alliance leader,”

“Because Lu Chen is now the uncrowned king!”

“Boy, how are you? I just came in time, right?”

On the way back in the car, the drunkard was holding a wine jug, crossing his legs, drinking wine

happily.

“If you don’t come, they can’t do anything to me.” Lu Chen shrugged.

“Come on, what are you pretending to be in front of me?”

Jiu Kuang looked up and down, curled his lips and said: “You used the Lu family’s secret method to

forcefully break through, and now the time limit has come, and you are about to be backlashed. If I

don’t show up, you probably have to confess here today.”

Although the Lu family’s secret method can break through the realm, the cost is also huge.

On the one hand, it consumes vitality; on the other hand, after using it, the body will become extremely

weak.

If the enemy seizes the opportunity at this time, it is very likely that his life will be lost.

“Old guy, you have good eyesight.”

Lu Chen smiled, no longer hiding it, and directly pulled out the silver needle on the back of his head.

For a moment, his whole body seemed to be deflated, and his energy and energy were directly

drained.

The originally powerful aura plummeted and became extremely weak.

“Huh…huh…”

Lu Chen was breathing heavily, with big beads of sweat pouring out.

His previously rosy complexion became as pale as paper, his eyes were bloodshot, and his limbs were

even more sore and weak.

As if exhausted.

As Jiu Kuang said, although the Lu family’s secret method can forcibly increase strength, it has serious

side effects.

If it wasn’t for killing Lei Wanjun, he wouldn’t use it easily.

Chapter: 2194

“Come on, drink some wine to replenish your body.”

The drunkard handed over the flagon in his hand.

Lu Chen was also polite, and took a sip directly.

The strong wine entered the throat, exuding a trace of heat, which nourished the originally weak body

to a certain extent.

Clearly, the wine has been spiked.

“Boy, I have something to tell you.”

The drunkard yawned, half lying on the seat, and lazily said: “I have an old friend who has encountered

a little trouble, and I have to leave for a while.”

“Leave? Where are you going?” Lu Chen was a little strange.

“Yanjing.” Jiu Kuang spat out two words.

“Yanjing?” Lu Chen frowned slightly: “Old drunkard, you have a sensitive identity. If you go to that

place, I’m afraid there will be some trouble.”

Although the events of ten years ago have subsided, the former enemies are still there.

If the drunkard reveals his identity, he will inevitably be tricked.

“Boy, when did I, Kuang Nansheng, ever worry about trouble? You underestimate me too much.” Jiu

Kuang said nonchalantly.

“When do you plan to leave?” Lu Chen asked again.

“Sooner rather than later, I’m leaving today.” Jiu Kuang said calmly.

“So anxious?” Lu Chen frowned.

“Human life is at stake, so don’t rush.”

The drunkard stretched his body, then seemed to think of something, and suddenly took out a medicine

bottle from his body, handed it to Lu Chen, and said: “Tomorrow is your birthday, well, this baby is my

birthday gift to you.” Gift.”

“Oh? When did you become so polite?” Lu Chen was quite surprised.

“When I leave, I don’t know when I will come back. I have to leave something for you kid.” Jiu Kuang

said.

“What’s in it?” Lu Chen was a little curious.

Half of his medical skills come from being a drunkard, and the other half comes from studying various

ancient books.

“This thing is called Dragon Spirit Tiger Pill. It is my exclusive secret recipe. It can enhance the ability in

that area and restore men’s glory. The effect is excellent and unparalleled in the world!” The drunkard

looked proud.

“No, why did you give me this thing?” Lu Chen was taken aback.

I thought it was some kind of panacea, but after working on it for a long time, it turned out to be an

aphrodisiac.

“I see that you have been married for a few years, and you have been quiet. It must be something

wrong. This baby is just right for you.” The wine maniac said solemnly.

“Old man! What nonsense are you talking about? You’re not good at that, I’m so mad!” Lu Chen

became anxious immediately.

Because I was too emotional, I started to pant heavily as I spoke.

Coupled with that pale face, it looks like a kidney deficiency.

“All right, all right, you are very fierce, you are very fierce, I know, don’t get too excited.”

Chapter: 2195

The drunkard nodded perfunctorily, with an expression as if he was coaxing a fool: “Anyway, this

treasure is rare, so you should keep it for now, just to be prepared.”

With that said, he stuffed the medicine bottle into Lu Chen’s pocket.

“What the hell are you…”

Lu Chen felt that he was insulted, and just about to have an attack, he began to cough violently.

“Okay, okay, don’t say anything, I understand.”

The drunkard patted Lu Chen on the back and said immediately: “I have to catch a flight later, so I

won’t bother you anymore. Remember, take your medicine on time and try to give birth to a big fat boy

as soon as possible.”

As soon as he finished speaking, the drunkard’s figure flashed and disappeared like a ghost.

“Take care, old thing.”

Through the car window, Lu Chen looked at the hunchback figure that disappeared in the distance, his

eyes became a little complicated.

There is no never-ending banquet in the world. Ever since he cured the drunken maniac, he knew that

the other party would leave sooner or later.

He has his goals, and the alcoholic also has his own things to do.

Life is different and the path is different. All he can do is silently bless and pray for peace…

After resting for a while, Lu Chen and Lao Zhang returned to Fengyu Villa.

However, as soon as they arrived at the gate, the two saw a group of Qilin Gang disciples busy inside

and out, all kinds of lanterns and festoons, dressed in red and green.

Concubine Cao Xuan and Zhao Hongying directed all aspects of the layout in the villa, striving to be the

most detailed and perfect.

The two women, who were at war with each other before, now have a surprisingly tacit understanding.

“Concubine Xuan, Hongying, what are you two doing?”

Lu Chen walked in the door with a look of curiosity on his face.

“Brother Chen, you are back.”

Zhao Hongying turned her head in surprise, hurried up to greet her, and said with a smile: “Tomorrow is

your birthday, I’m thinking about making a good arrangement, but I don’t know if you’re satisfied or

not?”

“It’s just a birthday, why should it be such a grand event?”

Lu Chen looked around and found that the entire Fengyu Villa seemed to have been renovated.

“What are these? If it wasn’t for the rush of time, I would have pushed and rebuilt this place.” Zhao

Hongying said solemnly.

“…”

Lu Chen’s mouth twitched.

He knew that with this girl’s character, she could really do it.

“Husband, today is different from the past. You are now the leader of the Qilin Clan. If you want to

celebrate your birthday, you have to liven it up and make it look like the leader of the gang!” Concubine

Cao Xuan said with a smile.

“We can just have a meal together, why bother?” Lu Chen had a headache.

Zhao Hongying mentioned this matter before, and he specifically told him not to publicize it.

In the end, this girl couldn’t hold it back.

Chapter: 2196

“We have to eat, and we also need to make a show, so we can’t be upstaged by Shangguan Hong,”

Concubine Cao Xuan said.

“Wait, what’s the matter with Guanhong?” Lu Chen was a little strange.

“It seems that you don’t know yet. Tomorrow happens to be the day when Shangguan Hong and Cao

Zhiyuan are engaged. They have already invited guests and prepared a grand banquet. Naturally, we

must not show weakness.” Concubine Cao Xuan’s eyes sparkled.

Shangguan Hong stirred up dissension and tore the Cao family into pieces, which she has always been

resentful about.

Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm

So she planned to take this opportunity to destroy the prestige of the Shangguan family.

“Oh? Shangguan Hong is engaged to Cao Zhiyuan? It seems destined.” Lu Chen raised his eyebrows.

He had no interest in it at first, but now that he heard that it was related to Guan Hong, he felt a little

more eager to win.

Because of the treasure map, Shangguanhong has been making small moves behind the scenes.

The grievances between the two parties have become deeper and deeper, and it seems that it is time

to settle the matter.

“Since the Cao family changed its patriarch, it has completely become a vassal of the Shangguan

family. The entire Cao family’s property is being eaten up. After this engagement, Shangguan Hong will

probably show his fangs soon.” Concubine Cao Xuan’s face gradually changed. serious.

The Cao family fought within, causing the brothers to turn against each other.

The relatives in the past have now all become enemies.

Even with the whole family, there is a huge crisis.

Fortunately, she was prepared in advance and transferred all her assets to Yanjing.

In this way, a little fire can be saved for the Cao family.

“Concubine Xuan, when it comes to the Cao family, what does your father think?” Lu Chen asked.

With Cao Guan’s connections and prestige, if he really wanted to compete with Cao Guan, he would

have a good chance of winning.

“My dad is still trying his best to save the situation and trying to negotiate with the uncle and the others,

but unfortunately, the effect is very little.” Concubine Cao Xuan shook her head.

Her father was good at everything, but he was too emotional and didn’t want to turn against each other,

so he kept regressing.

Up to now, Cao’s family has lost their hearts and is in a state of disunity.

“It seems that your father is still a little worried, but when encountering this kind of thing, you have to

break through and build up.” Lu Chen reminded.

It’s right to be concerned about brotherly feelings, but if you keep giving in, it will only make the

situation worse.

“I hope my dad can wake up soon.” Concubine Cao Xuan looked a little complicated.

She can help her father turn the situation around, but the problem is that her father has no plans to fight

now.

“Oh, right……”

At this time, Concubine Cao Xuan seemed to have thought of something, and took out an exquisite bag

of tips from her bag and handed it to Lu Chen: “It’s your birthday tomorrow. This is a gift from my dad.”

“Thank you father for me.” Lu Chen smiled.

“Open it and take a look.” Concubine Cao Xuan winked.

“Now?”

After receiving confirmation, Chase Lu slowly opened the kit and took out a well-preserved piece of

parchment.

Chapter: 2197

When I unfolded it, I found that there was a mysterious pattern drawn on the parchment, but it was a bit

incomplete.

“Concubine Xuan, what is this?” Lu Chen was a little surprised.

“This is the treasure map passed down from the Cao family’s ancestors, and it is also what

Shangguanhong has always wanted. Now, my father has given it to you.” Concubine Cao Xuan smiled

slightly.

“What? An ancestral treasure map?”

Lu Chen was startled at first, then waved his hands repeatedly: “No, no, no, this thing is too valuable, I

can’t have it!”

The treasures of the Cao family are as rich as an enemy, and can even change the pattern of the

world.

The value of this treasure map is simply inestimable.

“It’s just a incomplete treasure map. It’s useless for my dad to keep it. Why don’t I give it to you. Maybe

you will have a chance to put the treasure map together.” Concubine Cao Xuan said with a smile.

“Concubine Xuan, this is your family’s ancestral possession, how can I take away someone else’s

favor?” Lu Chen shook his head again.

“Actually, my dad did this after careful consideration.”

Concubine Cao Xuan explained: “With his current ability, he cannot protect this treasure map. It might

be taken away by Shangguan Hong one day. Rather than letting the treasure fall into the hands of an

ambitious person, it is better to choose a suitable treasure map.” The successor of the book will inherit

this treasure map.”

“This…” Lu Chen hesitated.

Cao Guan regards this treasure map as more important than his own life, but now it is given to him, it is

an unconditional trust.

At the same time, it also made him feel a heavy responsibility.

“Okay, there’s no need to refuse. This is my father’s wish. Just accept it. Maybe it can help you in the

future.”

Concubine Cao Xuan smiled, and stuffed the parchment into Lu Chen’s arms.

“Okay, I’ll keep it for your dad first, and then return it to him after the Cao family is stable.” Lu Chen

finally nodded.

Cao Guan gave him the treasure map, on the one hand, out of trust, and on the other hand, he hoped

that it could be handled properly so that it would not harm all living beings.

…

At night, inside the Shangguan’s mansion.

Shangguan Hong was sitting in the study, playing chess by himself.

Cao Jun and Cao Zhiyuan stood obediently by the side, not daring to take a breath, looking extremely

humble.

Since they were captured by Tiger and Leopard Riders last time, they were released after only two

days of detention.

In their opinion, it must have been Shangguan Hong who persuaded Hongying God of War to let him

go.

This is enough to prove that they are not following the wrong person.

“Tomorrow is the day of engagement, are things ready?”

After a game of chess was played, Shangguan Hong finally spoke.

“this……”

Hearing this, Cao Jun’s expression froze, and he subconsciously looked at his daughter standing

beside him.

“Brother Hong, we were already close to success, and it’s all due to that damned Chen Lu, who

disrupted our overall plan and caused us to be arrested.”

Chapter: 2198

Cao Zhiyuan cursed while explaining.

“Okay, I don’t want to hear this nonsense.”

Shangguan Hong glanced at the two of them coldly, and said calmly: “The result I want is not the

process. According to our previous agreement, you will give me the treasure map, and I will support

you to rise to power, and then the two families will marry and create glory together. I have done what I

promised, how about you?”

“Young Master Hong, we have tried our best. Can you give us a few more days? I promise that I will

help you get the treasure map!” Cao Jun vowed.

“Yes, Brother Hong! With a few more days, we will definitely be able to fulfill our agreement!” Cao

Zhiyuan nodded repeatedly.

“I hate people who don’t keep their promises the most. They agreed to give the treasure map before

the engagement. If you can’t do it, then tomorrow’s engagement banquet will be cancelled, and there is

no need for you and me to communicate anymore.” Shangguan faced Expressive.

“ah?”

As soon as these words came out, Cao Jun and Cao Zhiyuan’s expressions changed instantly.

Now the Cao family is full of complaints, and the forces of all parties are ready to move. If there is no

protection from the Shangguan family, the power they just obtained will soon come to naught.

“Brother Hong! Can’t be canceled!”

Cao Zhiyuan was a little panicked, and repeatedly promised: “Please give us one more chance, we will

definitely be able to get back the treasure map!”

After finally having the opportunity to marry into an extremely wealthy family and become the general’s

wife, she naturally would not give up easily.

No matter what the cost, she must maintain her current position.

“It’s no use just talking, what I want is the result.”

Shangguan Hong said calmly: “You still have one night. Before the engagement party starts tomorrow,

if you can’t present the treasure map, don’t blame me for turning against me!”

“No problem, no problem! We’ll do it right away!” Cao Zhiyuan nodded frantically.

There was no other choice now, she had to give it a try.

“Go ahead and don’t disappoint me.”

Shangguan Hong waved his hand and motioned for the two of them to retreat.

“Yes Yes Yes……”

Cao Zhiyuan and the two didn’t dare to hesitate, and hurriedly said goodbye and left.

After walking out of the study, Cao Jun couldn’t help having a difficult time: “Daughter, we only have

one night, how can we get back the treasure map?”

Various methods have been used without success before, and now it is even more difficult.

“Dad! We can’t be soft-hearted anymore. We must be serious. Otherwise, we will miss this opportunity

and be unable to hold our heads up for the rest of our lives!” Cao Zhiyuan’s eyes were fierce.

“Really? What do you mean?” Cao Jun was suddenly a little uneasy.

“Arrest Cao Guan, torture him severely, and force him to hand over the treasure map!” Cao Zhiyuan

said murderously.

“Torture?” Cao Jun frowned: “Daughter, after all, he is your third uncle, our blood relative, isn’t this

bad?”

Although the two sides fought openly and covertly before, they never broke through the bottom line.

After all, they were brothers, so he couldn’t really kill them all.

“Dad! We’re running out of time. If we don’t do this, it’s impossible to get back the treasure map!”

Chapter: 2199

Cao Zhiyuan had a cold expression on her face: “If people don’t do it for themselves, heaven and earth

will perish! We are only one step away from ascending to the sky, and we must not give up all our

efforts. Those who achieve great things need to be ruthless. This is our only chance, and we must die!”

Hearing this, Cao Jun couldn’t help but fell silent.

After a while, he nodded heavily: “For you, for our future, we can only deny our relatives!”

For Cao Jun, he has lost his son and can no longer ruin his daughter’s future and happiness.

So even if he is a villain, even if his brothers turn against each other, he will not hesitate.

“Dad! You are indeed born to do great things!”

Seeing his father’s agreement, Cao Zhiyuan couldn’t help but look happy: “I believe that as long as we,

father and daughter, work together, any difficulty can be solved!”

As long as you convince your father, everything will be easy.

“Zhiyuan, I agree with your plan, but the bottom line is, don’t hurt your third uncle’s life.” Cao Jun

warned solemnly.

“Dad, don’t worry, I’m just here for the treasure map. If Third Uncle can hand it over in time, I won’t

really hurt him.” Cao Zhiyuan immediately promised.

Of course, if you refuse to pay, don’t blame her for being cruel.

“Very well, I feel relieved with your words.”

Cao Jun nodded and continued: “However, there is still a problem now. There are masters secretly

protecting your third uncle. With our current strength, I am afraid it will be difficult to succeed.”

If he has enough time, he can also go outside to recruit some martial arts masters to do things.

But it’s obviously too late now.

“Dad, I think of someone who should be able to help us.” Cao Zhiyuan suddenly said.

“Oh? Who is it?” Cao Jun was curious.

“Shangguan is prosperous!” Cao Zhiyuan raised the corners of his mouth.

“Shangguan Xingwang? Isn’t he just a second-generation ancestor? How can he help us?” Cao Jun

frowned slightly.

Although Shangguan Xingwang is Shangguan Hong’s younger brother, whether it is personal ability or

status, Shangguan Xingwang is far behind Shangguan Hong.

The two brothers are completely different.

“Dad, you underestimated him.”

Cao Zhiyuan shook her head: “Although Shangguan Xingwang is not as prosperous as

Shangguanhong, he is also well connected. He not only knows many martial arts masters, but also has

a group of people from the world under him. If he can get his help, kidnapping Cao Guan will not be a

problem at all. !”

“What are you going to do?” Cao Jun asked tentatively.

“The heavenly secret must not be leaked.”

Cao Zhiyuan smiled mysteriously: “Dad, you go to the living room to rest for a while. I’ll be back soon.”

After the words fell, she left quickly.

After a stick of incense.

Holding a bowl of hot dumplings, Cao Zhiyuan knocked on the door of Shangguan Xingwang’s room.

“Sister-in-law, why are you here?”

Chapter: 2200

Shangguan Xingwang opened the door and took a look, his eyes immediately lit up.

Cao Zhiyuan is very beautiful. She has inherited the excellent genes of the Cao family, so both her

appearance and figure are top-notch.

For men who are full of vigor and blood, it is definitely a great temptation.

“Xingwang, I heard that you were injured yesterday, so I came here to take a look.”

Cao Zhiyuan smiled charmingly, walked into the room, and put the bowls and chopsticks on the table:

“Looking at you, you must be hungry, right? Here, these are the dumplings cooked by my sister-in-law.

Try it.”

“Really? Then I really want to taste it.”

Shangguan Xingwang smiled, sat down immediately, and began to wolf down.

While eating the dumplings, he stared at his sister-in-law.

His fiery eyes glanced back and forth on Cao Zhiyuan’s sexy figure, appearing very greedy.

“How is the taste?”

As if without noticing, Cao Zhiyuan deliberately sat next to Shangguan Xingwang, and his smile

became even more charming.

“It’s delicious! The dumplings made by my sister-in-law are so delicious!”

Shangguan Xingwang nodded repeatedly, his face full of desire.

Because he was so close, he could clearly smell the fragrance on Cao Zhiyuan’s body, which was

simply intoxicating.

“As long as you like it, my sister-in-law will cook it for you when you have time in the future.” Cao

Zhiyuan said with a smile.

“Thank you sister-in-law!”

Shangguan Xingwang swallowed, his eyes glowing.

He has seen many beauties, but he has never met a vixen like Cao Zhiyuan who brought the charm of

women to the extreme.

The most important thing is that this superb beauty in front of her is still her own sister-in-law.

The thrill of violating taboos is the real abyss of desire.

It is unbearable.

“well……”

After booing and inquiring, Cao Zhiyuan suddenly let out a sad sigh.

“What? Is there something bothering my sister-in-law?”

Shangguan Xingwang asked proactively.

“It’s okay, you can eat at ease, it’s just a little trouble, nothing.”

Cao Zhiyuan forced a smile and tried to indulge in lust.

Actively asking for help can easily arouse suspicion. If the other party asks for help, it is another matter.

“Sister-in-law, we are all a family now. If you have any difficulties, just ask and I will definitely help you

solve them!”

Shangguan Xingwang patted his chest, looking very generous.
