Chaos Dao Sheng Jue

Chapter 278 Appearances are in harmony but minds are separate

"A-choo! A-choo! Could it be that someone is thinking about me? Hehehe..." Lu Chen sneezed twice in succession and laughed at himself.

Then, he continued to fly the flying boat towards Nanhuzhou.

After Yan Zixia came out of the secret realm of Yinfeng Valley, she was hurriedly found by her aunt who was also her personal bodyguard.

She also told her that the head of the family, Yan Dingkun, had sent urgent news, saying that something big might happen in southern Xinjiang and asked her to return to the Central Plains immediately.

Compared with Southern Xinjiang, Central Plains is much stronger than Southern Xinjiang in terms of geographical area, total number of monks, average cultivation level of monks, etc.

There are innumerable forces, large and small, and for tens of thousands of years, there has been a situation of a hundred schools of thought contending and a hundred flowers blooming.

The most influential ones are the Ten Nine-Star Sects, the Ten Great Cultivation Families, the Loose Cultivator Alliance, Dan City, Fengtian City, Zhutian City, etc.

For example, the Yan family was listed as one of the top ten cultivation families because of the sword immortal Yan Feiyu. Even if Yan Feiyu was missing, didn’t they still have the protection of Kuang Dao Xiaotian?

Therefore, no one dares to shake the status of the Yan family at present.

The Yan family, one of the ten great cultivation families in the Central Plains, is located in the East District of Taibai City in Zhongzhou.

It has an ancient building complex covering an area of ​​about 200,000 square meters, which is equivalent to the area of ​​a large residential area that can be used to build thirty high-rise buildings.

You know, in Taibai City, where every inch of land is valuable, owning such a huge private building complex is a testament to the Yan family's status and strength.

This is also the headquarters of the Feiyu Chamber of Commerce of Beichenzhou.

At this moment, in the center of the Yan family building complex, there is a nine-story octagonal tower called "Sword Immortal Tower"

This name was chosen by the sword immortal Yan Feiyu himself, who also wrote the inscription himself, and it has extraordinary significance.

After Yan Zixia and Wang Xiumei settled down the group of early Jindan cultivators who were accompanying them,

Then he came to the "Sword Immortal Building", because this is also where his father Yan Dingkun works every day.

"Hehehe...Father! I'm back. I don't know what you want to talk about. Why did you call me back in such a hurry?"

In Yan Dingkun's office, Yan Zixia smiled and walked to a coffee table and sat down. Wang Xiumei followed her and sat down.

"Humph! You are getting more and more courageous, you actually dare to risk your life to go to the secret place of Yinfeng Valley. And! Xiumei, you too,

It's fine if she's just fooling around, but you followed her and didn't stop her. You even went so far as to cover up her whereabouts."

Yan Dingkun's body trembled, and he said with an unhappy expression.

Although Wang Xiumei is Wang Dingkun's sister-in-law, as Yan Zixia's personal bodyguard, this move is indeed somewhat dereliction of duty.

So he did not refute Yan Dingkun's words, nor did he admit his mistake.

She thought to herself that her brother-in-law Yan Dingkun couldn't do anything to her anyway.

"Oh... Dad... How can you say that to my aunt? This is entirely my own decision.

Besides, now that I'm grown up, I know the importance of many things. Look, Dad, I'm fine, aren't I?"

Yan Zixia said coquettishly, like a teenage girl.

If Yan Zixia's men saw this scene, they would definitely be shocked.

You know, Yan Zixia, as the daughter of the Yan family, not only has outstanding cultivation aptitude, but also has a high talent in business management.

Therefore, she became the actual operation manager of Feiyu Chamber of Commerce very early on. In her daily management, she always had a serious look on her face.

How could she be as adorable as a little girl like this?

It is said that a daughter is a father’s little cotton-padded jacket. Yan Zixia’s coquettish look immediately made Yan Dingkun lose his temper.

Then, his expression softened slightly, and he said earnestly:

"Don't be so reckless next time, understand? If something happens to you, how will your father and mother feel?"

"Hehehe... Got it, Dad! Oh, by the way, Dad! I wonder why Dad called me back so anxiously, is there something important?"

Yan Dingkun heard that Hu Shilong was killed by a cultivator named Lu Chen.

Hu Guangyi personally led a team of more than 100,000 people to surround the Yinfeng Valley in order to find the murderer Lu Chen.

After Yan Zixia heard this, she immediately showed a very shocked expression, and the image of Lu Chen blackmailing her in the medicine garden space emerged in her mind.

But I didn't expect Lu Chen to be so bold that he dared to kill Hu Shilong. Hu Shilong meant a lot to the old Hu family.

Yan Zixia naturally knew this, and couldn't help but label Lu Chen as reckless.

After bidding farewell to her father, Yan Zixia began to hand over her work.

Because she was about to go into seclusion to practice, and because her father Yan Dingkun said that the Tianyin Mountain Secret Realm Trial was about to begin.

The Tianyin Mountain Secret Realm also has some restrictions on the realm of cultivators. Only cultivators in the Jindan stage can enter the secret realm.

Yan Zixia’s cultivation is only at the late stage of fusion now, so she must break through to the Golden Core Stage before the Tianyin Mountain Secret Realm is opened, so that she will be qualified to enter the Tianyin Mountain Secret Realm.

For this purpose, Yan Dingkun specifically suggested that she temporarily put down the affairs in her hands and let him manage them.

This will give Yan Zixia enough time to practice and prepare in advance for the trial in the Tianyin Mountain Secret Realm.

As for Hu Guangyi, since he had already arranged the task of capturing Lu Chen, he returned to the Central Plains with Xia Ji and a group of experts.

When the entire Hu family heard the news of Hu Shilong's death,

For a moment, the entire Hu family was in an uproar, and the entire Taibai City was in an uproar.

Before Hu Guangyi left in a hurry, someone had already heard that Hu Shilong's soul jade token was broken.

It’s just that the news has not been specifically confirmed and no one dared to spread it, but now it has been confirmed.

The entire Hu family was in wailing. You know, Hu Shilong is the hope of the entire Hu family.

Now that hope has been dashed, how can one not be sad and upset?

Of course, there were also people who were secretly delighted. After all, in a large family, there would always be one or two people who were not in harmony with each other.

Next, under the leadership of our ancestor Hu Guangyi, a grand funeral was held for Hu Shilong.

After Hu Shilong's funeral was completed, Hu Guangyi cleared Xia Ji's name, after all, she was now pregnant with Hu Shilong's child.

There is a saying: "A mother is honored by her son, and a wife is honored by her husband."

This is a true portrayal of Xia Ji's current situation. Even if Hu Shilong does not exist now, Xia Ji's status in the old Hu family is second only to the ancestor Hu Guangyi.

In order to ensure that Xia Ji could give birth to a child smoothly, Hu Guangyi specially arranged for her to live in a large, independent house with a quiet environment.

And without Xia Ji saying anything, Hu Guangyi ordered people to arrange everything he could think of regarding prenatal care, almost everything was taken care of.

Because Hu Guangyi always had an illusion that Xia Ji might give him a grandson.

Xia Ji naturally accepted this with pleasure, but every time when it was late at night,

She would always think of Hu Shilong's surprised, shocked, unwilling, confused, and angry eyes before he died, and he died with his eyes open...
