Among the villas in Chengdong District.
Zhao Fengchen stood by Xia Luo's bed with a respectful expression. Xia Luo's body was hot, her skin was as red as charcoal, and white mist was constantly coming out from her nose, eyes, mouth, and ears.
The whole person, from a distance, looks like a fried spicy crayfish, well, a crayfish demon after awakening and mutating.
The clothes on his body have been charred, and the special alloy bed has become red and hot because it has absorbed too much heat.
Now Charlotte, with her bare buttocks and tired body, was as red as if she had been placed on a barbecue grill.
In front of Zhao Fengchen, a middle-aged man with a huge figure and a majestic expression stood with his hands behind his back, looking down at Xia Luo's current condition.
This was a virtual figure transmitted through a video call, but Zhao Fengchen could still feel the unparalleled sense of oppression from this phantom.
"Lord City Lord, is it really okay for Commander Charlotte to do this? Do you want me to take him back to the city quickly?"
Zhao Fengchen was so frightened by Xia Luo's abnormal state. A seriously injured and dying person suddenly burst out with such amazingly powerful energy without taking any elixir. It was really unbelievable. Zhao Fengchen Never encountered this situation before.
"No need!" Xia Lai waved his hand directly, staring at Xia Luo with a strange expression for a while, and then said to Zhao Fengchen: "Xia Luo's injury is recovering on its own, and it is no longer serious."
"In this situation, it should be that the blood power hidden in his body is awakening under stress. What you have to do now is to stay by his side and don't let anyone get close to him. When the blood power in his body is awakened, he will naturally Wake up on your own."
"Awakening of bloodline?"
Zhao Fengchen was stunned. He had stayed in the City Lord's Mansion for nearly fifty years, but he had never heard that the Xia family had such a special blood talent.
He was seriously injured but his blood was boiling!
What kind of bloodline power is this that can be so powerful and violent, and can actually show such exaggerated and magical scenes when it first awakens
Realizing that Xia Lai's eyes were sweeping towards him, Zhao Fengchen's heart froze and he quickly put away his curiosity, not daring to ask any more questions.
Zhao Fengchen, who has lived for more than half his life, knows better than anyone else that too much curiosity can really kill people. Sometimes the more you know, the faster you will die.
"Tell me about it." Who else outside of South China could hurt Charlotte with your protection? Could it be that the old gangster Zhu Huanan took advantage of the big and bullied the small and did it himself? "
Xia Luo's own strength is not weak, and now he is surrounded by Zhao Fengchen, a more advanced and mature official who is following him. Under normal circumstances, as long as Zhu Huanan does not come out, they are enough to walk sideways in Xichu City.
"Return to the city master." Hearing Xia Lai's address to Zhu Huanan, Zhao Fengchen couldn't help but break out a cold sweat on his forehead, and he quickly respectfully said: "Master Huanan is currently guarding the underground tunnel and is not in the city."
"The people who injured Commander Xia Luo today were a young teacher named Wang Zhe and Chen Guang, the current principal of the South China Martial Arts School. The two of them worked together to beat Commander Xia Luo into the current situation."
Xia Tianlai raised his eyebrows, put his hands behind his back and said softly: "Tell me the cause and effect of the matter in detail."
Zhao Fengchen said: "Lord City Lord, the cause of the matter starts with the young lady. This morning, Commander Xia Luo received a distress call from a young lady from school..."
"...This is what happened. At that time, I was trying my best to block Wang Zhe's attack, but Commander Xia Luo didn't know what kind of stimulation he had. He rushed towards the middle school student who was only an eighth-level martial arts disciple like crazy. Even if he was attacked by Chen Guang attacked with all his strength and didn't see him dodge and counterattack. It was really..."
Until now, Zhao Fengchen still couldn't figure out what happened to Xia Luo. He ignored two powerful enemies and insisted on finding trouble for a small warrior. It was simply unbelievable.
Xia Tian came but did not consider this. He knew very well what kind of urine his cousin was. He could do incredible things with a twitch in his head. He had long been used to it. Otherwise, he would not have given the order in the first place. Zhao Fengchen must follow him closely.
What really surprised Xia Luo was another question: "You just said that the student actually dodged Xia Luo's fatal blow, and even slapped Xia Luo with his backhand, breaking Xia Luo's iron cloth shirt. Cover the door?"
Zhao Fengchen was stunned for a moment. Did he just say that? No, right
"Lord City Lord, what I just said seems to be that Commander Charlotte's move was too old, and it happened to miss the vital part of the student's head and just swept past his ear. The student only had the eighth level of martial arts training. How could it be possible to avoid Commander Charlotte's attack?"
"As for the iron cloth shirt's cover being broken later, I also think it was just a coincidence, because before that, Commander Xia Luo's cover had received a strong blow from Chen Guang. It should have just been a delayed onset of the injury. I just happened to catch up with that middle school student."
Otherwise, it makes no sense at all. He is a peak martial artist, and he has also trained Tiebu Shi to the realm of perfection. Few people at the same level can break through his defense, let alone an eighth-level martial artist. A newbie.
It's simply impossible!
"happen?"
Xia Lai shook his head slightly and took a deep look at Zhao Fengchen: "Once is a coincidence, twice is a coincidence, and such a coincidence happened to the same person at the same time. Do you really think this is a coincidence?"
"Zhao Fengchen, tell me honestly, did you see the two coincidences you just analyzed with your own eyes, or did you infer them independently based on common sense after the fact?"
Zhao Fengchen's expression changed slightly, he lowered his head and did not dare to speak.
It was really up to Xiaxia Lai to do the talking. When he mentioned the middle school student just now, he was completely subconsciously making up his own mind, because only saying it this way was more in line with common sense. He didn't think there was anything wrong with his judgment.
"Charlotte is my younger brother, and I know him better than you do!" Looking at Zhao Fengchen's expression, Xia Tian already knew the answer. He said quietly: "Although he is not very smart, he is also a bit reckless. But no one can deny that his talent in martial arts is much higher than that of my elder brother."
"He blamed the middle school student. No matter what the reason was, he left with hatred in the end. What he did was a sure-kill blow. Do you think he would make a mistake in the direction of his punch at that critical moment?"
"You missed the target? That's just nonsense!"
Xia Lailai snorted coldly, and Zhao Fengchen shivered, not daring to say anything. In fact, he was a little unsure before. After all, for a martial artist at the peak of his martial arts, attacking a standing rookie target would miss the target. , itself a joke.
However, if Charlotte didn't really miss, how should he explain his missed punch
Could it be that he was influenced by that middle school student? If you really think about it this way, it will be even more incredible, okay
"Also, the cover on Charlotte's body was broken. You said it was due to Chen Guang's previous attack delay." Xia Lai said: "Let's not talk about whether Chen Guang has such ability. Mr. Zhao, you have also practiced iron Bu Shan's martial arts is more advanced than Xia Luo's, do you think this so-called delayed attack can really work?"
Zhao Fengchen's head lowered.
He couldn't argue, because he couldn't tell Xia Tian, and because he felt that it was even more nonsense that Charlotte was broken by a random slap from a middle school student, so he settled for the next best thing and thought of this relative solution. It's not too ridiculous to say that.
What can he do if he encounters such a weird thing? No matter what kind of explanation, it is impossible to satisfy Cai Ban.
Zhao Fengchen was sure that if he had told Xia Luo from the beginning, Xia Luo's attack was easily dodged by a middle school student, and the iron shirt covering the door on Xia Luo's body was also blown open by the middle school student's slap. My mood will definitely be worse now.
He will definitely feel that this old guy Zhao Fengchen is simply insulting his IQ.
The two powers harmed each other, whichever was the lesser, and Zhao Fengchen was forced to do nothing.
"Forget it!" Xia Lai waved his hand and said: "This matter is a bit unbelievable. It cannot be inferred based on common sense, and I can't blame you."
"However, there must be something wrong with that middle school student!" Xia Lai told Zhao Fengchen very firmly: "Later, when Xia Luo gets better, you can immediately go and investigate the details of that student in detail."
"Yes, City Lord." Zhao Fengchen responded, and then asked Xia Lai in a deep voice: "The young lady is still in the School Discipline Department of South China Martial Arts School. I don't know..."
"Don't worry about Zixuan for the time being. I will communicate with Chen Guang on the phone in person later." Xia Lai said: "Now is the time when Dongchu and Xishuangchu have just formed an alliance. Some things should not be too big. I think Chen Guang should also understand this."
Although everyone knew about Xia Luo's matter, from the beginning to the end, neither Xia Luo nor Zhao Fengchen revealed their identities as members of the Xia family in Dongchu City in front of Chen Guang at the South China Martial Arts School. Therefore, even if Chen Guang and Wang Zhe really killed Xia Luo on the rooftop, Xia Lai would not be able to really pursue anything.
Because there is no reason at all.
Charlotte and his men rushed into other people's territory rudely and shouted to kill them. Shouldn't they be allowed to fight back normally
Even if such a matter was brought to Zhu Huanan or even to the higher-level provincial capital garrison, they would not pay attention to it.
As it is now, pretending to be confused while pretending to understand is the best choice for everyone.
"Oh, that's right!" Just when Zhao Fengchen was about to hang up the phone, Xia Lai said in a voice, "And that Wang Zhe, you said before that his cultivation strength is far superior to yours, right? "
Zhao Fengchen said: "That's true. Wang Zhe's aura is extremely solid, his movements are agile, and his attacks are extremely sharp. Within ten moves, the subordinate can barely resist, but after ten moves, the subordinate will definitely be defeated."
Xia Lai frowned slightly: "Even you can only support ten moves in his hand? So, doesn't this Wang Zhe already have a strength close to the master level?"
"City Lord Mingjian." Zhao Fengchen bowed and said: "My subordinates suspect that Wang Zhe's path to becoming a master should have reached 99%. He is only one step away from breaking free from the shackles and advancing to the realm of master!"
Zhao Fengchen himself has the strength of a half-step master, so he feels Wang Zhe's power more clearly. Wang Zhe's cultivation strength has far exceeded that of an ordinary half-step master.
"Really?" The look on Xia Lai's face was gloomy, and he nodded lightly: "So, West Chu City will soon have the second Wuzong in charge. This is a great event, and our East Chu City No matter what, you have to show something."
Zhao Fengchen hesitated for a moment and said worriedly: "Sir, now is the critical period when the alliance between the Eastern and Western Chu cities has just merged with each other. If the Western Chu city suddenly has a martial arts master at this time, will it be harmful to us in the Eastern Chu city? The next part of the city…”
Xia Lai glared and said displeasedly: "Mr. Zhao! Don't say these words again in the future!"
"The two cities of East and West are now one and the same, sharing weal and woe. The addition of a grandmaster in West Chu City is also a heavenly joy for me in East Chu City. Please don't make such heartbreaking remarks! "
Zhao Fengchen nodded repeatedly and did not dare to say another word.
"In this way," Xia Lai thought about it for a moment, and then ordered softly: "You can simply collect the basic information about this teacher Wang Zhe over there first. Tomorrow, I will take the time to go to Xichu City and pay a personal visit to this teacher. Quasi-grandmaster!"
"Yes, Lord City Lord!" Zhao Fengchen bowed in response.
