Late at night, Leicheng Tianbao Tower.
After leaving Leihou Mansion, Chen Xi followed Ya Qing to Tianbao Tower to rest, accompanied by Yan Yan and Yun Na.
Yan Yan is the daughter of Yan Cheng, the great treasure appraiser. Returning to Tianbao Tower is equivalent to returning home, and Yun Na also followed her to Tianbao Tower, which is a bit strange.
As far as Chen Xi knew, Yun Na was from the Yun family, a very ordinary small family in Leicheng. She did not return home late at night, but followed him to Tianbao Tower. Chen Xi could vaguely guess something, but he did not know. Tell the truth.
Naturally, Yaqing and Yan Yan didn't say much. They arranged for Chen Xi and Yun Na to stay in two VIP rooms, and the two women left immediately.
It was already late at night. Chen Xi also felt a little tired after attending a turbulent banquet just now. He took a hot bath and was about to rest when an unexpected guest came to visit.
It's Mrs. Shuihua.
Chen Xi was not surprised to see this charming and charming lady visiting the world. When he was at Tianbao Tower in Lanhai City, he knew that he would definitely meet Madam Shuihua again before the Star Conference. However, It's just a matter of sooner or later.
To put it into perspective, this beautiful lady actually helped him a lot, such as giving him ten top-grade Xuan-level swords as gifts in Lanhai City, and entrusting Yaqing to help him solve some minor problems when he was in Maple Leaf City. Even he The Purple Gold Heavenly Treasure Order on his body was a gift from Madam Shuihua.
Although these kindnesses are small, they add up to a large amount and have to be taken seriously. Chen Xi certainly does not dare to forget them. Although he also knew that Mrs. Shuihua must be asking for something when she approached him, he was too lazy to care about it so much, as long as the other party didn't have any intention of harming him.
Mrs. Shuihua came this time and talked with Chen Xi for less than a stick of incense. She seemed to have no purpose and was just chatting. She left gracefully not long after.
The fragrance is lingering in the air, but the beauty has disappeared without a trace.
Chen Xi sat cross-legged on the bed and meditated for a long time.
Although Mrs. Shuihua did not express her intention, by talking to her, it was not difficult to find that she had been approaching him and helping him in a silent and moisturizing way, but she had no intention of accepting him for her use.
It seemed that from beginning to end, she just wanted to show herself a kindness, nothing more.
"No matter what, I still owe her a favor. Maybe this is what she wants?" Chen Xi shook his head and stopped thinking about it.
Early the next morning, it was just dawn.
After Chen Xi got up and washed himself, he walked out of the room.
When he returned to Tianbao Tower last night, he talked to Yaqing and set off for Jinxiu City today. After all, the Star Conference will start in a month, so it’s better to arrive early.
As soon as he walked out of the room, Chen Xi saw Ya Qing, Yun Na, and Yan Yan already waiting there.
This gathering of stars brought together the young generation of powerful people from the entire Da Chu Dynasty’s cultivation world. It could be said that it was a gathering of masters, and the occasion was unprecedented. This grand event not only has many participants, but also countless people who travel thousands of miles to Jinxiu City just to catch a glimpse of the powerful young generation. Naturally, the three girls will not miss this event.
However, before leaving, Yaqing called Chen Xi aside and whispered: "Yunna plans to return to the family to retrieve her mother's ashes before leaving Leicheng, so she does not plan to come with us."
Chen Xi was startled and said with a smile: "Isn't it just to collect the ashes? It won't take much time. Let's go with her. It won't be too late to set off again."
Yaqing sighed: "I think so too, but Yun Na's situation is a bit special."
"What's going on?" Chen Xi raised his eyebrows and glanced at Yun Na in the distance. Seeing that she looked dazed and worried, he vaguely guessed that it might be related to matters within her family.
Sure enough, what Ya Qing said next proved Chen Xi's speculation.
It turns out that Yaqing's status in the Yun family is quite low, and her mother is just a maid next to Yun Shufeng, the current head of the Yun family. Yun Shufeng got drunk once, became animalistic, and took Yun Na's mother's body by force. Gave birth to Yun Na.
Not long after Yun Na was born, her mother died of illness. And Yun Shufeng's family has countless wives and concubines, and is full of children. How can he care about Yun Na, a daughter he got through an accident? If Yun Na hadn't been his biological flesh and blood, he would have almost forgotten whether he had this daughter.
In addition, Yun Na's mother was just a maid. Yun Na was not only ostracized by the children of the Yun family and ridiculed her as a bitch, but even the slaves and maids spoke ill of her and did not treat her as the head of the family. treated as a daughter.
From this, we can know how miserable Yun Na's life experience is.
When Chen Xi learned all this, he couldn't help but sigh, and he felt more pity for Yun Na in his heart. Being able to grow up in such a harsh environment and live strong and independent until now, Yun Na's life is really not easy.
He immediately decided to accompany Yun Na to visit Yun's house.
After learning about Chen Xi's decision, Ya Qing and Yan Yan both agreed, but Yun Na was a little flattered. Her eyes changed when she looked at Chen Xi, and her gratitude shone with indescribable joy.
The group of people left Tianbao Tower immediately, but as soon as they walked out of the door, they saw the young prince Wang Zhenfeng in a gorgeous robe waiting there.
"Why are you here?" Yaqing frowned, a little annoyed. This guy has been pestering her for several days. At yesterday's banquet, he instigated others to make trouble for Chen Xi. Now he has the nerve to show up. I really don't know how thick-skinned he is. To what extent.
"I'm here to apologize to Brother Chen." Wang Zhenfeng smiled awkwardly, then stepped forward with a solemn expression and said, "Everything yesterday was Wang's fault. I hope Brother Chen doesn't mind."
Chen Xi was too lazy to think about how this guy's attitude had changed so drastically. He shook his head: "The matter is over. There is no need to be polite, Brother Wang."
After that, he took Yun Na towards the direction of the Yun family. He didn't want to get involved with this trouble-making guy again.
Seeing this, Ya Qing and Yan Yan stopped paying attention to Wang Zhenfeng and followed closely.
However, Chen Xi still underestimated the thickness of Wang Zhenfeng's face. After being ignored by him, Wang Zhenfeng not only didn't get angry, but looked like he didn't care. His mentality was surprisingly good. He caught up with him again and asked with a smile: "You guys Where are you going? I'll accompany you, there's no place in Leicheng that I don't know about."
Chen Xi pursed his lips and said nothing.
Naturally, the three Yaqing girls didn't bother to talk.
Wang Zhenfeng laughed, explained himself, and continued to say sincerely: "I know that some things yesterday caused some trouble for Brother Chen. It's all my fault..."
In this way, Chen Xi and others remained silent along the way, with only Wang Zhenfeng chattering away, like a little follower who had made a mistake.
Seeing this scene, everyone on the road was stunned for a while, almost thinking that they were dazzled. You must know that he is the Young Marquis who is highly respected by the Leihou Mansion. He is a well-known presence in Leicheng. How could he become so low-minded
Just when Wang Zhenfeng was frothing and his mouth was dry, Chen Xi and his party finally saw the mansion where the Yun family was located.
The Yun family's mansion occupies an area of one hundred acres, and its scale is even smaller than that of the Chen family today. It is ordinary and incomparable to other magnificent and tall buildings that Chen Xi saw along the way. In this huge Leicheng City, Yun's family's mansion is not as big as the Chen family's. The family is indeed an inconspicuous little family.
Even Wang Zhenfeng, a young prince who was born and raised in Leicheng, looked confused when he saw the Yun family's mansion for the first time, and murmured: "Yun family? Is there still this family in Leicheng?"
This shows how weak and ordinary the Yun family is.
As she approached the door of the mansion, Yun Na's expression became complicated. She took a deep breath and knocked on the door.
Outside the door, a middle-aged servant walked out. When he saw Yun Na outside the door, he was stunned for a moment, and then snorted disdainfully: "Hey, you bitch is not dead yet? Why do you think of going home?"
Hearing the word "bitch", Yun Na's expression suddenly changed, she clenched her hands unconsciously, and said coldly: "Get out of the way, do I need to report to you if I can't go home? You are just a slave raised by the Yun family, you'd better control it. My own dirty mouth!”
The middle-aged servant was startled, then became furious: "What did you say?"
At this time, he also noticed Chen Xi and his group, his face turned, and he sneered: "I understand, you think you can go home and show off your power after making a bunch of bad friends? You really don't know how high the sky is!"
Yun Na was furious and her eyes were about to burst into flames.
Chen Xi also frowned. Even a slave dared to be so vicious. From this, he knew what the Yun family's attitude towards Yun Na was.
Snapped!
There was a crisp sound, and Wang Zhenfeng rushed forward without knowing it, and slapped the servant so hard that he flew backwards for more than ten feet, and blood spurted out from his mouth.
"What kind of bastard dares to call me a 'hussy friend'? If it had been anywhere else, I would have chopped you alive!" Wang Zhenfeng took a strong sip, his face full of disdain, that kind of innate arrogance and inadvertently emerging from his body The noble aura was so shocking that the middle-aged servant forgot to scream.
"Miss Yun, out of righteous indignation, I couldn't help but hit him. Is it okay?" When Wang Zhenfeng turned to look at Yun Na, a warm smile appeared on his face, which was like a spring breeze.
While speaking, he looked at Chen Xi. Seeing that Chen Xi was noncommittal, he immediately understood that he had made the right bet this time.
"Could it be that they came to the Yun family this time to look for trouble?" Wang Zhenfeng couldn't help but feel excited. Finding trouble was his specialty. If he did it well, Chen Xi might be able to let go of his past resentment against him!
"I just realized now that you look much more pleasing to the eye today." Ya Qing glanced at Wang Zhenfeng and said in surprise.
Wang Zhenfeng laughed: "Miss Yaqing's words satisfy me."
Ignoring the servant who was vomiting blood on the ground, Chen Xi and his party walked straight towards the gate.
"Someone is coming! Someone is coming quickly! That bitch Yun Na is back with a group of helpers to cause trouble!" After a while, the servant got up and screamed at the top of his lungs. The sound spread everywhere, and suddenly It shocked the entire Yun family.
