Originally, the Qin, Li, Zhou, and Wang families had vague intentions of uniting to deal with the Chu family, but after seeing Song Yan kill Chu Tianlong in the later stage of Shenhai with one move, they gave up this idea.
If you can kill the late stage of Shenhai with one move, then the opponent's cultivation level must have reached the peak of Shenhai.
The so-called peak of Shenhai is actually also the late stage of Shenhai. It is just a name for warriors whose strength is at least twice that of the ordinary late stage of Shenhai.
Back then, Chu Tianxing was also at the peak of Shenhai. He once fought against two late Shenhai players alone, but ended up winning within a hundred moves.
After the succession ceremony, there was a banquet.
To celebrate Song Yan's ascension to the position of head of the Chu family, all the prominent people in Fenghua Town came and each gave them heavy gifts. Among them, the gifts from the four martial arts families were the most valuable.
Because they all know that the rise of "Chu Fan" is unstoppable.
But the reason they fawned over him was because of his age!
"Chu Fan" is only eighteen years old.
What does the eighteen-year-old peak of Shenhai represent? It represents the future and infinite possibilities. In the future, among the magical warriors, there will definitely be a place for "Chu Fan".
No matter what state "Chu Fan" reaches, he is still a warrior who came out of Fenghua Town. But in the future, when someone mentions Chu Fan, they are honored to be from Fenghua Town.
There were more than a hundred banquet tables, and chefs from the best hotels in the town were invited to sit there.
But not many people were really interested in the delicacies on the table. They were more concerned about "Chu Fan"'s toast.
Yes, contrary to expectations, "Chu Fan", who had first taken over the power of the Chu family, did not show any arrogance. Instead, he held a wine glass and toasted table after table.
This made the warriors who came to congratulate feel a sense of respect.
To put it bluntly, in this world, the weak prey on the strong. Why did Chu Tianlong succeed in seizing the power of the Chu family as soon as Chu Tianxing died, and drove Chu Fan out of the Chu family? To put it bluntly, it was because he was a late-stage Shenhai , Chu Fancai was at the seventh level of body tempering.
This toast took a full two hours.
When toasting, Song Yan didn't just say a few words and then leave. Instead, he said a few words to everyone at the table. Before, Chu Tianxing was not very good at life and devoted himself to hard work. In the end, he became possessed and died. His son After being expelled from the Chu family, there was not even a single person to speak for him.
It shows how much of a failure he is as a person.
Therefore, Song Yan did not want to repeat his mistakes, but took the initiative to make friends with these respectable people in Fenghua Town.
What's more, with his status and status, he doesn't need to flatter them to make friends with them. He can just say a few words to them and spend some time with them at most, so why not do it.
And precisely because of this, everyone who came to the banquet had a great impression of Song Yan.
In the end, there were four tables left without toasts, and they were the other four families.
When Song Yan led people to the table where the senior officials of the Qin family were sitting, everyone stood up one after another under the leadership of Qin Yingxiong.
"Master Qin, you don't have to be polite, please take a seat quickly."
Song Yan pretended to be flattered and said.
Regarding this, everyone in the Qin family felt happy.
After a toast, Qin Yingxiong suddenly said to the girl beside him: "Niece Chu Fanxian, let me introduce you to him. This is Qin Yao, my niece!"
"Hello, Miss Qin!"
Song Yan smiled and nodded politely to the other party. This woman was about 1.7 meters tall, with a slender body and a delicate appearance. She exuded a delicate temperament that made people couldn't help but care for her.
"I've met Mr. Chu."
Qin Yao's pretty face turned slightly red. She just glanced at Song Yan and lowered her head shyly.
Their family can only be regarded as a collateral branch of the Qin family.
A few days ago, Qin Yingxiong suddenly came to the door and had a conversation with her parents. Then, Qin Yingxiong took her to Qin's house.
Moreover, before coming to the Chu family, Qin Yingxiong had a private chat with her. As long as she could catch the eye of "Chu Fan", her family could become a direct descendant of the Qin family, whether she was a wife or a concubine. .
Although she felt a little uncomfortable, she still agreed for the sake of her parents and younger brother. However, after meeting Chu Fan, her dissatisfaction disappeared. Not only was he about the same age as her, but he also had a higher level of cultivation. Unparalleled, the most important thing is that the other party has a cheek that is enough to make girls obsessed.
Men love beauty, and sisters love beauty.
Don't think that only men like beautiful women, women also like handsome men.
"Yao'er, make a toast quickly." Qin Yingxiong reminded in a low voice.
So, Qin Yao shyly picked up the wine glass: "Mr. Chu, I'd like to give you a drink, little lady!"
"Okay, I also respect Miss Qin." Song Yan responded with a smile.
The other three families, the Zhou family, the Li family, and the Wang family, were a little anxious when they saw this. Like Qin Yingxiong, they also brought a talented and good-looking woman of Song Yan's age.
After talking to the Qin family for a while, Song Yan went to the Li family.
This time, the head of the Li family directly asked a pair of twins with extraordinary looks to toast Song Yan.
Then, the Wang family and the Zhou family also used honey traps and asked the girls they brought to toast Song Yan.
The banquet was eaten from noon to midnight and then completely dispersed.
The servants cleaned up the mess, but Song Yan took Chu Xue back to his room.
There is still not much clue about the sneak attack on Chu Tianxing.
It is difficult for the Chu family to find clues, so the only way to investigate is from Chu Tianxing's life.
The next day.
Song Yan summoned the four elders to learn about matters related to Chu Tianxing.
Based on the narratives of the four people, Song Yan compiled a biography of Chu Tianxing:
Chu Tianxing had no amazing performance before the age of sixteen, and he was not outstanding in martial arts. He was not even as good as Chu Tianlong. He only had the eighth level of body tempering, while Chu Tianlong, who was several years older, had already reached the first level of divine power.
Later, because of something, Chu Tianxing had a conflict with Mr. Chu, the head of the family. Chu Tianxing left a letter and ran away in anger.
This journey lasted six years.
Six years later, he returned, his cultivation had reached the early stage of the Divine Sea, and he also brought back three-month-old Chu Fan.
After returning to Fenghua Town, Chu Tianxing never left again and was obsessed with martial arts.
Before Mr. Chu died, Chu Tianxing's cultivation had reached the peak of the middle stage of the Divine Sea realm, and was only one step away from reaching the late stage of the Divine Sea realm.
Chu Tianlong, on the other hand, had just broken through the early stage of the Divine Sea.
Therefore, Mr. Chu passed the position of head of the family to Chu Tianxing, which made Chu Tianlong feel quite unbalanced, and he later usurped the throne.
Based on the speculation from these information, Chu Tianxing was not as talented as Chu Tianlong before he was sixteen years old. In other words, he should have had some adventures in the six years since he left the Chu family.
Also, why is there no news about Chu Fan’s mother
This is also a doubtful point.
In other words, if you want to find out the murderer who caused Chu Tianxing to become obsessed with fire, you have to investigate what happened to him during the six years he ran away from home.
"What a trap!"
Song Yan sighed helplessly, then ignored the matter and plunged into the Chu family's library.
In order to investigate Chu Tianxing's affairs, he was destined not to stay in Fenghua Town for a long time, but he lacked understanding of the world, so he could only start with books.
