late at night.
It was raining heavily in Kyoto Prefecture, and the spring was chilly. The night wind blew on the trees in the back garden of Jingye Marquis Mansion, and the branches collided with each other with a rustling sound.
Along with the sound of raindrops falling in the pond, faint sobs could be heard from the pavilion.
"Thirty-eight years. Thirty-eight years..."
"My Zhou family still has descendants!!"
Zhou Tiance was in tears, his wrinkled face was squeezed together, looking as ferocious as an old ghost.
In front of the stone table, Chen Yuan sat expressionless, not affected by him at all, drinking silently.
Chen Ken sat beside the two of them, pouring wine for them while carefully looking after Zhou Tiance.
"Master Yuan, congratulations on succeeding to the throne of marquis." Chen Yan raised his glass and said with a smile.
"Bastard!"
But as soon as he finished speaking, Zhou Tiance cursed, "Why call me Young Master Yuan? Call me Marquis!"
Chen Yan patted his lips lightly and said with a smile: "Master is right, I am wrong, wrong."
"My Lord, I toast to you."
Chen Yuan looked at the two of them, drank the wine in his glass silently and said, "The emperor hasn't issued an order yet, it's too early to call you Marquis now."
"No, it's not early." Zhou Tiance wiped the tears from his face and waved his hand drunkenly:
"The emperor's words are as golden as jade. Once he opens his mouth, the imperial edict will be delivered to the Marquis' Mansion very quickly."
"Old, the only thing I'm worried about is your marriage. Yuan'er, what are your plans?"
Chen Yuan moved his fingers slightly, and the wine glass shattered. He said in a cold tone: "I'm sorry that I can't agree to the marriage."
Zhou Tiance's expression turned cold, and his tone turned serious: "Yuan'er, that was the marriage granted by the emperor - are you going to disobey the order?!"
Chen Yuan remained silent, looking at him with cold eyes, the dark blue and cold sword intent spreading slightly.
"Grandpa, I promised you that I would succeed the title of Marquis of Jingye, not without conditions!"
"condition?"
Zhou Tiance's angry expression froze, and he pointed at him with a slightly trembling finger and asked, "You, what are your conditions?"
Chen Yuan said coldly: "Refusing the marriage granted by His Majesty is one of them!"
"The second condition is my mother and the people of the Chen family. If you dare to hurt them again, the Zhou family bloodline will be cut off from now on!"
"Only these two?"
Zhou Tiance narrowed his eyes. Although his pupils were cloudy, his gaze was as sharp as a hunter seeing his prey.
"What about the marriage granted by His Majesty?"
"No!"
Zhou Tiance stared at him intently and said, "You have no say in the matter of the emperor granting marriage!"
"You know what! Even if you don't agree to that matter! Even if I don't agree, the emperor will still make you agree!"
"Since His Majesty ascended the throne, there has been nothing he has not been able to accomplish!"
Chen Yuan raised his eyelids slightly, his long silver hair fluttering in the wind, and asked coldly: "If that's the case, why is there still the matter of Beixiong Pass?"
"you?!"
Chen Kuang hurriedly tried to persuade him to stop, and repeatedly winked at Chen Yuan, signaling him not to provoke the old marquis again.
"Master, Master, today is a happy day, let's just talk about happy things, okay?"
Chen Yuan remained indifferent.
Zhou Tiance was panting heavily and was gently pressed down by Chen Yan. He drank two glasses of wine in a row.
There was a long silence, and none of the three spoke again.
Until the heavy rain stopped a little and turned into a dense drizzle, there was no more sound of raindrops falling in the pond.
Zhou Tiance just said dejectedly: "Forget it, forget it, you will succeed the position of Jingye Marquis in the future, and you will have the final say on these matters."
He raised his hand slightly and pointed at Chen Yan and said, "Chen Ke, please help Yuan Er more in the future."
"Not only the 'Qianlong', but also the current Jingye Army... Tomorrow, you will bring Qiu Long and the others to see Yuan'er."
Shen Yan nodded and said, "Master, don't worry, I know what to do."
Zhou Tiance waved his hand, signaling him to leave first.
Chen Kuang hesitated for a moment, glanced at Chen Yuan, then stood up and left the pond, taking the guards around him with him.
After everyone had gone far away, Zhou Tiance regained his composure, as if everything before was just an act.
He looked straight at Chen Yuan and said, "Remember what I am going to say next. Don't forget a single word!"
Chen Yuan remained silent, but in his heart he was thinking about what he had heard from the Left Prime Minister during the day.
"You can't trust anyone, whether it's Zhou Tiance or me, or the people in the court, or even the people of the Chen family!"
"Does that include my second brother?"
"Including! Of course if it's Chen Yi, I believe he won't harm you!"
Can't trust anyone...
Chen Yuan looked at Zhou Tiance, who had a sincere expression on his face, and nodded slightly.
"Good boy, good boy."
Zhou Tiance's expression relaxed a little and he moved back a little. As the true energy in his body circulated, spear intent was erected one after another around the pavilion, carefully blocking everything here.
In addition, he also activated the formation around the pond to prevent any sound from being transmitted.
"Back then, Xie Jing persuaded me to put aside my grudges temporarily, and I agreed to it at first."
"But I tried everything and I couldn't do it. I was old and seriously injured."
"Even if I wanted to, I can't build a dedicated army like I did when I was young to protect everyone in the Zhou family. So..."
"So I changed the strategy of 'Qianlong', and even changed the previous strategy of hating the Demon Court!"
Zhou Tiance paused, his expression somewhat painful, as if he was unwilling to bear that past.
"Yuan'er, can you understand how I feel?"
"Compared to the ferocious and brutal demons, those beasts in human skin in the court deserve to die even more!"
"They deserve to die, all of them!"
Looking at Zhou Tiance who looked excited, Chen Yuan frowned slightly. He already had a premonition of what his grandfather would say.
At the same time, this is also what the Left Prime Minister Xie Jing is most worried about - treason and selling out the country!
Zhou Tiance's face was already ferocious, and his tall body was so skinny that his broad palms were full of joints.
"Since I recovered from my injuries, I have continued to guard the Beixiong Pass. Whenever I am stationed there, the Demon Court will go south to attack the pass."
"A lot of people died, hahaha... many young and strong people recruited from around Kyoto Prefecture suffered heavy casualties, it happens every time!"
"Because of this, I, I gained the trust of the Demon Court!"
Zhou Tianzhe looked up at Chen Yuan and said, "Yuan'er, you are not me, you are the new Jingye Marquis!!"
"There are some things I can do that you can't! Only in this way can we revive the Zhou family's glory!"
Chen Yuan's eyes turned slightly cold. He didn't expect that what Xie Jing said was actually true.
My grandfather thought he could hide the truth from the world, but in fact he made many mistakes.
Over the years, nothing happened when my father and Wang Xi, the Marquis of Mount Tai, were stationed at Beixiong Pass. Only when my great-grandfather was stationed there, the demon court went south to attack the pass and there were heavy casualties.
Not only Xie Jing, but also those people in the court who were interested in the matter had long noticed that something was wrong with Grandfather.
"Grandpa, you are wrong."
Zhou Tiance nodded, with a sad smile on his face, and said: "I know that I have committed serious sins. I don't ask for your forgiveness, but I only ask that you can devote yourself to your family and country."
"This is not only the Zhou family, it is also your home, your 'Zhou Yuan's' home."
"As for the hatred of the previous generation...let's end it with grandpa. You just need to be a good marquis at ease."
Chen Yuan pursed his lips indifferently. Is this going to end?
It can't end!
Not only he could not accept what his great-grandfather had done, but the Chen family and even the entire Wei Dynasty could not forgive it!
"Tell me, besides the incident at Beixiong Pass, is there anything else?" "Previously, the evil spirits and monsters in the martial arts world teamed up to assassinate Chen Yi, and someone from Wuliang Mountain appeared."
"You were the one who called Master Lou Yuhuang over, right?"
Zhou Tiance nodded and said, "That time, it was indeed Grandpa who asked the corridor master for help. He is Guan Wu's master."
"And the Nanman!" Chen Yuan continued, "Master Xu Feiyan has an affair with the demons, and is selling out the information about the people in the secret realm. Is that your idea?"
"Yes."
Zhou Tiance thought of that Taoist Master Xu, and said with a bit of bitterness on his face: "She is a fellow disciple of Guan Wu."
"There is also a war outside Zhennan Pass, right?"
Chen Yuan lowered his head. Even without looking at Zhou Tiance, he already knew the answer.
Xie Xiang was just guessing, but now he can be sure that his grandfather did a lot of things behind the scenes!
Every single incident is a matter that angers God and the people!
Even though Chen Yuan had thought of the worst possible scenario before, he still didn't expect that he could do this!
"Yuan'er, those things were all done by me alone. They have nothing to do with you."
Zhou Tiance took a deep breath and said, "Even if someone finds out in the future, Grandpa will bear the responsibility alone and will never implicate you!"
"is it possible?"
Chen Yuan raised his head, his expression returning to its usual coldness, and said, "Grandpa, you said before that things would end here, and I believed you."
"But I hope that from now on when I succeed the Marquis of Jingye, you will no longer interfere in all matters concerning Qianlong and the Jingye Army!"
After saying that, Chen Yuan glanced at him, then stood up and walked out.
"As for 'The Majesty's Marriage', I will take care of that too!"
Zhou Tiance watched him quietly walk out of the backyard, and followed him with a spear into the house near the right side of the middle courtyard. Only then did a smile appear on his face.
That thin smiling face looked like a demon with only dry bones left, ferocious yet full of meaning.
I don’t know how much time had passed, but in the dead of night, the only sound of dripping rain could be heard.
Zhou Tiance no longer forced himself to hold on. He hunched over and drank in small sips, coughing from time to time.
"Old Marquis, you are in such a good mood as always. Very good, very good."
A voice sounded in his ears. Zhou Tiance's body paused, then relaxed, his throat moving slightly and the sound was faint.
"How did you come?"
"There are things to do and people to kill."
Before he could finish his words, a dark shadow poked out from the pond beside him, revealing only a pair of dark eyes staring at him.
"I haven't congratulated the old marquis on getting what he wanted yet."
"If all the heirs of the Chen family were dead, I would be happier."
"Ah, you haven't given up targeting Chen Yi yet?"
"Give up," Zhou Tiance said with gritted teeth, but his tone was very helpless:
"The night before, that bastard's sword shook the sky... I know that he is very difficult to kill."
"Difficult to kill doesn't mean impossible to kill." The black shadow chuckled and said, "Of course, I also know that it is not appropriate to touch him now."
"Has there been any changes in the Demon Court?"
"It's just because killing him on Tianyuan Continent would cost too much and the gains would not outweigh the losses."
The black shadow continued to lean forward, slid down along the wooden pillar of the pavilion, and sat opposite Zhou Tiance. He picked up the wine jug on the stone table and took a sip.
"When the event is over, they will take him there, and then he will lose his greatest support!"
Hearing this, Zhou Tiance also smiled.
"I have only one request, let him die! Let everyone around him die!"
"Oh, why does the old marquis have such a big grudge against him? It shouldn't just be because he hindered the Zhou family's inheritance, right?"
Zhou Tiance paused, looked him straight in the eye and said, "This is not something you should be concerned about. You should think about how to accomplish your purpose here."
"Don't forget, this is Kyoto Prefecture, not the Shiwan Mountains!"
The black shadow's twisted body seemed to shake a few times, and its two arms were raised high as if in surrender:
"I'm so scared!"
"Better so."
The shadow waved his hand: "Be at ease, old marquis."
"I will not enter the Imperial City, so nothing will happen. Of course, I will also stay away from the First and Second Masters, because their noble aura is too scary."
Zhou Tiance drank silently to hide the murderous intent in his eyes.
Seeing this, the black shadow raised his hands again and said, "Okay, okay, I'm leaving."
"I hope that the next time we meet, the old marquis can really get what he wants."
a long time.
Zhou Tiance snorted coldly, waved his hand to smash the stone table, then stood up and left hunched over.
"Yuan'er, I hope you won't do unnecessary things..."
……
Speechless all the way.
Chen Yi traveled thousands of miles and came straight to the gate of Wuliang Mountain in Hexi Prefecture, looking down at the peaks of Wuliang Mountain that were completely unaware of anything.
Especially the main peak at the back - his previous sword intent was still there.
"The repair was quick. In just one day, the mountain was restored."
Chen Yi chuckled, but there was no smile in his eyes.
He came all the way to Wuliang Mountain, but he wasn't just here for fun!
As the altar in the body swirled, thirty-six stars exploded, and wisps of light smoke enveloped the entire Wuliang Mountain and even the area within a thousand miles.
After the arrival of this murderous sword intent, just like the formation of Wuliang Mountain, everything here was hidden.
Soon, some people who came from afar were shocked to find that they could not see where Wuliang Mountain was.
"The gate to Wuliang Mountain has disappeared?!"
"What's going on? Aren't they recruiting disciples during this period?"
The group of disciples from noble families who came to become his disciples were completely confused and felt that this was too strange.
However, some knowledgeable people consoled him, "Just wait patiently. Wuliang Mountain will not be closed for long this time."
"I hope..."
Chen Yi ignored the travelers outside the mountain. After doing all this, he no longer hesitated and flicked his fingers on the hilt of the Chunyu Sword.
The next moment, a stream of silver-white light instantly penetrated the formation outside Wuliang Mountain, and the murderous sword intent spread, covering the peaks of Wuliang Mountain.
In an instant.
Several masters and elders sensed the domineering murderous sword intent and instantly appeared on the peaks, staring at Chen Yi outside the formation.
"Who dares to disturb my Wuliang Mountain?!"
Chen Yi glanced at them, moved his fingers slightly, and the Spring Rain Sword returned to his hand again.
Faintly, a vivid, towering white tiger quietly emerged.
However, it was not hanging high in the sky as before, but was lying on the formation outside Wuliang Mountain.
The four tiger claws easily pierced through the protective spiritual power formed by the formation, and the tiger head moved a little closer -
"Roar!!"
When the tiger's roar was heard in Wuliang Mountain, Chen Yi spoke in a cold voice:
"Chen Yi, a disciple of Jianfeng Mountain from Taixu Dao Sect, is here to pay respects to the mountain!"
"All the Wuliangshan's geniuses, do you dare to fight?"
