Shuanghu Island Port.
“Do you remember what 1 told you?”
Chen Daoxuan looked at Chen Daochu and the others who came to send him and Chen Xianhe off and reminded them.
I’ll remember!”
Chen Daochu and the others hurriedly nodded.
After making arrangements for the family cultivators, Chen Daoxuan looked at
Chen Liangyu and Chen Beiwang.” 1’11 leave the factory production and school construction in Changping County to you.”
Chen Liangyu and Chen Beiwang looked at each other and cupped their fists.
Please rest assured, Patriarch and Young Patriarch. We will not fail our mission.”
“Yes.”
Chen Daoxuan nodded and waved his hand.” Go back.”
After the time for an incense stick to burn.
Standing on the deck of Gray Cloud, Chen Daoxuan looked at the gradually blurring figures of the people on the dock and couldn’t help but feel a sense of reluctance.
After more than a year, he was going to set foot in Guang ‘an Prefecture again.
However, this trip to Guang ‘an Prefecture wasn’t just for purchasing supplies or transporting goods.
Instead, it was to remove the obstacles on his Chen family’s path forward.
As if he thought Chen Daoxuan was worried, Chen Xianhe, who was standing beside him, patted his shoulder and comforted him, “”Don’t worry. Although there is a certain risk, it isn’t big.
If we do it well, not only will our Chen family be able to survive this crisis, but our future development will also be smooth sailing.”
“I’m not worried,”
Chen Daoxuan shook his head.” I think the ones who should be worried are the
Mo family.”
As he spoke, he gently rubbed the storage bag at his waist.
In the storage pouch, the two flying swords, Flying Snow and Cheng Ying, were lying quietly. They seemed to have sensed their master’s thoughts and let out a soft hum.
“Haha!”
Seeing Chen Daoxuan’s confident look, Chen Xianhe laughed out loud.” Well said! Why should we be worried? We should ask him if the Mo family is afraid of us!”
After saying that, Chen Xianhe’s eyes flashed coldly.
Guang ‘an City Immortal City.
After a month.
The two of them stepped onto the vast Spiritual Shell Island again.
The two of them were already familiar with their journey to Guang ‘an Prefecture.
Returning to the shop, Chen Xianhe and Chen Daoxuan were carrying a huge number of flying swords. They were waiting for a big fight.
However, before that, they still had one more thing to do.
This was also a crucial step in Chen Xianhe’s plan.
Otherwise, even if the Chen Clan repelled the Mo Clan, there would still be other small clans coveting the magical equipment market in the wandering cultivator market.
Therefore, compared to the few small families that had intimidated the wandering cultivator magical equipment market, what the Chen family wanted to do this time was to pull the tiger’s skin. At least in the eyes of outsiders, they had to pull the tiger’s skin.
The next day.
Green Jade Tower, Guang ‘an Prefecture’s core business district.
The Cuiyu Restaurant was the most upscale restaurant in the core business district. The ingredients here were all the best in Guang ‘an Prefecture.
Even an ordinary Foundation Establishment Cultivator would feel pain for a long time after eating a meal here.
However, today, Chen Xianhe had invited two or one important guests.
At the entrance of the Emerald Restaurant.
Chen Daoxuan and Chen Xianhe stood side by side, waiting for the arrival of a certain big shot.
“Thirteenth Uncle, how do you know this deacon of the Zhou family’s patrol team?”
” I don’t know him.” Chen Xianhe paused.” To be precise, I don’t know him. I know his son.”
“His son?”
Chen Daoxuan frowned.
” Yes.” Chen Xianhe rubbed his hands with a smile.” In Guang ‘an Prefecture, sometimes money is more useful than strength.”
” I still can’t believe it.” Chen Daoxuan shook his head.” How could a
Foundation Building cultivator accept our invitation? ”
Chen Xianhe smiled but didn’t say anything.
He couldn’t possibly say that his family had a First Tier Upper Grade Armament Master who admired this senior very much, right?
The Foundation Building seniors naturally didn’t care about ordinary Aura Refining cultivators, but a weapon refiner was different.
Even if he didn’t need a first tier Armament Master, who didn’t have a few juniors?
Who knows, there might be a time in the future when he would be of use?
Besides, Chen Xianhe was here to give him a gift and suck up to him. How could the Foundation Building cultivator not accept it?
After waiting for the time for an incense stick to burn.
Just as the two of them were getting anxious, the guest that Chen Xianhe had been waiting for finally arrived.
On the Cloud Treading Beast Carriage.
The two cultivators got off the carriage one after the other.
The older one was wearing the casual clothes of the Zhou family’s patrol team. He looked rather carefree.
This cultivator looked to be about forty years old. He had a resolute face and walked with a dragon-like and tiger-like gait. When he looked around, cold light shot out in all directions, and his killing intent was terrifying.
Chen Xianhe could tell at a glance that this person had definitely been to the battlefields of the Yun Nation.
Chen Xianhe was very familiar with the auras of soldiers on the battlefield.
This was the Foundation Establishment cultivator of the Zhou Clan that Chen Xianhe had invited, Zhou Mucheng. In terms of seniority, he was of the same generation as the Zhou Clan’s Chosen, Zhou Mubai.
The young man behind Zhou Mucheng was his son, Zhou Siliang.
It was also because of the constant bribery and befriending of this person over the past year that Chen Xianhe was able to invite this big shot behind him today.
“Fellow Daoist Zhou!”
Chen Xianhe quickly stepped forward and greeted Zhou Siliang with cupped fists. He then looked at Zhou Mucheng and looked at Zhou Siliang expectantly.
Seeing this.
” This is my father,” Zhou Siliang proudly introduced.” Where’s the Upper Grade First Tier Craftsman you mentioned earlier? ”
Hearing this, Chen Xianhe quickly called out to Chen Daoxuan, “Daoxuan, come pay your respects to Senior Zhou.”
Chen Daoxuan didn’t dare to be negligent.
He took two or three steps forward and cupped his hands at Zhou Mucheng. “Junior Chen Daoxuan greets Senior Zhou!”
“You’re the Chen Clan’s First Tier Upper Craftsman?”
Zhou Mucheng’s voice was a little harsh, like metal colliding, making one feel uncomfortable.
“That’s me.”
Zhou Mucheng was rather surprised to hear this reply. He originally thought that even if the Chen Clan had a first tier weapon craftsman, he would be an old Qi Condensation cultivator. He didn’t expect the other party to be so young.
This immediately piqued his interest in the Chen family.
“Fellow Daoist Zhou, Senior Zhou, let’s go inside and eat while we chat. I’ve already prepared a banquet for the two of you. I hope the two of you can join us.”
Zhou Mucheng nodded calmly.
Chen Xianhe quickly led the way.
When everyone was seated in the private room of the Emerald Restaurant.
A few rounds of spirit wine and good dishes were eaten.
Everyone finally became familiar with each other.
“Chen Xianhe.”
“Junior is here.”
Chen Xianhe bowed and replied respectfully.
“I heard that your Chen family has been selling low-grade Level One magic tools in the wandering cultivator market for the past year. Do you have that many craftsmen in your family?”
Hearing this question.
Chen Xianhe’s hand trembled as he held the wine glass. His eyes turned red and he couldn’t help but cover his face and cry.
Seeing this scene, Chen Daoxuan could not help but be dumbstruck.
He had never expected Thirteenth Uncle to have such an ability. His acting skills were too good!
“Senior, you don’t know.”
Chen Xianhe wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes and said with reddened eyes,” Cultivators of the Chen Clan with poor aptitude will automatically give up on cultivation after reaching the third layer of the Aura Refining realm and forge flying swords for the clan.
Because they only focus on learning the method to forge one type of magic tool, they will be able to nurture such a weapon craftsman in a few years.”
Zhou Mucheng’s expression changed when he heard this explanation.
” You mean to say that the cultivators of the Chen Clan should give up on cultivation and focus on refining artifacts to earn spirit stones for the clan?”
“Exactly.”
As he spoke, tears began to flow from Chen Xianhe’s eyes again.” It’s a pity that the Chen family’s disciples have sacrificed so much for the family. Our family’s shop is still coveted by evil people in the wandering cultivator market.”
“Preposterous! This is Guang ‘an Prefecture. How can such a wicked person be allowed to be so impudent!”
Before Zhou Mucheng could say anything, his son, Zhou Siliang, was already filled with righteous indignation.
Zhou Mucheng glanced at his son. Zhou Siliang immediately shrunk his neck and drank a cup of spirit wine awkwardly. He did not dare to say anything else.
Chen Daoxuan was completely stunned.
Chen Xianhe’s acting skills were too good. If he didn’t know the truth, he would have doubted that all the Chen family cultivators were in such a miserable state.
For the sake of the clan, they all gave up on cultivation and focused on earning spirit stones for the clan.
According to Chen Xianhe, every spirit stone the Chen family earned was exchanged for the Dao path of the cultivators in the clan. It was indeed tragic.
Zhou Mucheng nodded.” The actions of the Chen Clan’s cultivators are indeed admirable. As for the evil person you mentioned, as long as Fellow Daoist is in Guang ‘an Prefecture, my Zhou Clan will guarantee that your Chen Clan’s shop will be safe.”
Hearing this, Chen Xianhe panicked.
He did not want this guarantee.
No matter how crazy the Mo family was, they would never make a move in Guang ‘an Prefecture.
What he wanted was for Zhou Mucheng to be able to help on the route from Shuanghu Island to Guang ‘an Prefecture.
As the deacon of the Zhou Clan’s patrol team, Zhou Mucheng had a lot of power because he controlled a Spirit Void Battleship.
As long as Zhou Mucheng could cooperate with the Chen family, Chen Xianhe could set up a trap to trap all the people from the Mo family.
Not only that.
After this matter, he only needed to spread this matter and he would be able to pull the Zhou family’s tiger skin.
At the very least, before outsiders figured out the relationship between the Chen family and the Zhou family, they would not dare to make a move on the Chen family.
And this period of time was precisely the time that the Chen family needed the most to develop.
The Chen family had just given birth to nearly 10,000 newborns.
When this batch of children grew up, the Chen family would produce another Foundation Building cultivator.
Then, the Chen family would have a firm foothold in Guang ‘an Prefecture.
In order to do all this, the Chen family needed to have enough spirit stones and even connections.
This was because buying a foundation establishment pill required spirit stones, and using a second-grade spirit meridian to break through to the foundation establishment stage required a human meridian.
No matter what.
During this period of time, the Chen family needed to find a backer, even if this backer was not real.
This was what Chen Xianhe meant by borrowing power..
