The Patriarch of the Zhao Family, Zhao Xingzhi, entered the Innate Realm in his sixties. After ordinary warriors entered the Innate Realm, they would keep their appearance until the end of their lifespan.
Zhao Xingzhi is now in his eighties, and he looks only in his sixties. He is kind-hearted and energetic. When he sees Zhao Yi leading He Zhou and Wen Renyi in, he smiles kindly and looks at the two of them for a moment. Stroking his beard and nodding his head, he said to the children beside him: "They are all good boys."
After He Zhou and Wen Renyi greeted each other politely, Zhao Xingzhi stretched out his hand to signal them to sit down, sighed, and said, "That kid Zhao Ke was reckless in the bank incident yesterday, if it wasn't for you two to save the siege, I don't know how it would end, old man I thank you in advance."
He Zhou smiled, "Old Zhao is serious, this is a matter between me and Ah Yi."
Zhao Xingzhi waved his hands, laughed heartily, and said to Zhao Kai, "Ah Gai, bring the things."
Zhao Yi nodded and left the study.
Zhao Xingzhi chuckled again, facing Wen Renyi, saw his pale white shade, and asked, "Ah Yi, how is your health? Did Ah Zhou take good care of you?"
It sounds like they don't treat the two of them as outsiders anymore, but it just solves Zhao Ke's predicament, not a life-saving grace. Why is Zhao Xingzhi so close
Wen Renyi replied obediently: "Old Zhao, I am in good health, and Ah Zhou is also very good to me, thank you for your concern."
"That's good," Zhao Xingzhi said, and then turned the topic to He Zhou, "I heard from Shao Ning that Ah Zhou's formation technique was self-taught. It seems that you are very talented in formation technique. Not a single formation genius came out, haha."
"Old Zhao praises that formations are just an aid. The most important thing for a warrior is to cultivate himself. In my opinion, the elder brothers of the Zhao family are geniuses."
What He Zhou said is true, the generation of the Zhao family has indeed produced some outstanding ones, Zhao Ke is only 20 years old, and he is already at the middle stage of the earth rank, and Zhao Yi, who just left, is 32 years old and at the middle stage of the sky rank Xiuwei, with these juniors, the Zhao family will not worry about prosperity.
On the contrary, their He family, because of their weak bloodline, apart from him in the direct line, only Xiaoye and He Feng, the original body could not cultivate before, and He Feng was not talented enough, only Xiaoye could do it, and the overall strength could not be compared with Zhao compared to home. Wen Renshi and Zhao Xingzhi are both in the innate realm, only He Shaoning, but with a heavenly cultivation, if the He family had not had an ancestor who had been in seclusion for many years, perhaps the He family would have been kicked out of the four great families long ago.
Because of this, He Shaoning worried that one day the He family would not be able to protect He Zhou, so he let He Zhou marry Wen Renyi. It's not that he doesn't know that He Zhou and Wen Renyi don't have feelings, but sometimes, responsibility is more important than love. Wen Renyi's ability to avoid assassination again and again during the six years he was deposed is enough to prove his ability.
However, the world has changed, and now he is He Zhou, and no one knows what will happen to the He family in the future.
At this time, Zhao Yi came in from the study and handed a few books in his hand to He Zhou. Zhao Xingzhi smiled and said, "Ah Zhou, these books are accumulated by our family over the years, so I will give them to you." is you."
These are formation books.
Although warriors focus on cultivation, sometimes they are really helpless when encountering formations. Therefore, generally speaking, big families will train people who are talented in formations to become formation masters, just like the formations in bank safes before. It was created by Wenren's late Formation Master. In other words, Formation books are still very important for a family's inheritance.
Zhao Xingzhi's gift surprised He Zhou.
Seeing that he hadn't moved, Zhao Xingzhi said deliberately: "What? Ah Zhou doesn't like these books?"
He Zhou regained his senses and reached out to take it, "Thank you, Mr. Zhao, for your kindness."
Zhao Xingzhi then stroked his beard and laughed.
"Dad, the banquet is about to start, do you want to go downstairs to meet the guests?" Zhao Jing reminded.
Zhao Xingzhi stood up, "Haha, go meet them."
He Zhou and Wen Renyi walked behind and went downstairs together, and then they were entangled by the sharp-eyed Zhao Ke and Li Zeming.
"What did my grandfather tell you?" Zhao Ke asked curiously.
He Zhou didn't answer, because Zhao Xingzhi was already speaking.
Everyone thought that today was just the birthday banquet of the Patriarch of the Zhao family, but they never expected that after saying a few words, Zhao Xingzhi announced decisively that from now on, Zhao Jincang, the eldest son of the Zhao family, will succeed the Patriarch. Then retreat behind the scenes and practice retirement care.
Zhao Ke seemed to have known about it a long time ago, so he didn't appear too surprised.
After the old man finished speaking, he left the scene to Zhao Jincang. Zhao Jincang is in his fifties, but he looks twenty years younger than ordinary people. He is dressed in a black suit, tall and deep, and he is not a weak character at first glance.
He Zhou led Wen Renyi to the corner, looked at his calm face, and couldn't help asking him in a low voice, "Are you unhappy?"
Wen Renyi turned to face him, "No."
"By the way, there is something I forgot to tell you all the time," He Zhou said casually, "I think our home's defense system should be repaired."
Wen Renyi frowned, "How to say?"
He Zhou smiled, "Last time you said that our defense range is the entire courtyard, but when I went to the villa for the first time, someone broke into the door of the house and confronted me a few moves." He said, carefully Observe Wen Renyi's demeanor.
It was easy to hear, and unexpectedly admitted directly, "Sorry, I sent that."
"Why?"
"Because," Wen Renyi paused, and set up a barrier around him, "I think you might not be the real He Zhou."
He Zhou had thought about this reason a long time ago, so he wasn't too surprised, but he was a little ashamed that his partner was too smart, "Later, you tested me many times and came to a conclusion?"
Wen Renyi smiled, "I said before, everyone has their own fate, and you are He Zhou."
Young Master He was slightly moved. In fact, he himself didn't figure out what was going on. He once thought that he might just come to this world with the memory of his previous life.
"So, what are you unhappy about?" He still didn't let go of the question.
The white shade in Wen Renyi's eyes seemed to be glowing with a cold light, "Zhao Xingzhi gave you the useless formation book, are you very happy?"
Of course Young Master He was not happy.
It's not that Zhao Xingzhi didn't understand what Zhao Xingzhi was trying to gather a formation mage with a few books, but in the eyes of others, he was a formation mage with no cultivation, and it was too late for others to envy Zhao Xingzhi for being treated favorably by Zhao Xingzhi. Although He Shaoning is the Patriarch of the He family, the He family has few members and their overall strength is not as good as that of the Zhao family. Moreover, He Shaoning's cultivation is only at the sky level. He Ye's talent is indeed good, but he is still too young. From the looks of it now, the He family is far inferior to the Zhao family.
"Is it because of this?" He Zhou knew that Wen Renyi was complaining about himself, and he said in his heart, "It's nothing, Zhao Xingzhi just did what he was supposed to do."
Wen Renyi held his hand, pursed his thin lips tightly, and then said, "I just don't want you to be like me."
Thinking of Wen Renyi's life experience, He Zhou sighed inwardly, if Ah Yi hadn't been smart and wise, he still doesn't know if he would have survived these six years.
"Then you continue to work hard for Wenren's family to make money?" A late-innate martial artist went to use Wenren's family as a tool to make money. How could Wenren's face be so big
"I was just about to tell you," Wen Renyi's white eyes seemed to reflect He Zhou's figure, "I will resign as the general manager of Wenren Group, what do you think?"
Of course He Zhou agreed.
"Then I will have no money in the future." Wen Renyi said deliberately.
He Zhou put his arms around his shoulders, "It's okay, if someone invites me to break the formation in the future, I will charge them a high appearance fee. By the way, the reward Feng Lan promised last time has not yet been paid."
Wen Renyi smiled lightly, "I will."
