Chapter Fifty-Eight: The First Temptation
"Rampant?"
Yan Xun looked at everyone with his eyes, but he only felt ridiculous.
From childhood to adulthood, in his memory, these villains who tended to be inflammatory, had bullied him countless times, and even now, he still seemed to be able to hear the rampant ridicule of these people.
But what's the matter today, these arrogant and domineering people even know what it means to be rampant? It can really be described as a thief shouting to catch a thief.
"Alright, get out of here. ”
Looking at the apprehensive people in front of him, Yan Xun did not have the pleasure of revenge, on the contrary, he only felt bored for a while.
"Yan Xun, what are you so crazy about, do you have the ability to fight with Young Master Yan Han?"
Everyone was angry when they were humiliated, but they knew in their hearts that they were not Yan Xun's opponents, so they listened to one person speak, but Yan Xun heard this name but his eyes were certain, and he squinted slightly and smiled,
"That's what I mean!"
"Okay, let's go, Yan Xun, get down to business. ”
Seeing that the matter was almost over, Xu Zhiheng stopped watching the play on the sidelines, and reminded him lightly, and Yan Xun also put away the meaningful smile on his face and nodded solemnly.
For a while, the two of them walked directly towards the Yan family's ancient mansion located on the back of the mountaintop, and none of the dozens of people gathered before dared to stop them at this moment.
Xu Zhiheng came back with Yan Xun this time, firstly, to completely solve Yan Xun's problem, and secondly, with the help of the Yan family's intelligence network, to collect more information about the ancient martial arts world, so as to see if he could find Chu Zixiu's whereabouts.
"Big brother, everything has been put into storage as usual. ”
Entering Yan's house, Xu Zhiheng first went to the waiting room on the side to rest, but Yan Xun came to the family meeting room alone, and sure enough, he saw Yan Nan, who was sitting alone in a high position to deal with documents.
"Got it. ”
Yan Nan wore a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, and his literary quality was polite, and now he was not only not like an ancient martial arts cultivator, but like an urban elite, but the words that came out of his mouth were extremely indifferent and without the slightest emotion.
As if sensing that Yan Xun was still standing at the door and did not leave, Yan Nan gently lifted the gold wire glasses, frowned slightly, and said,
"Anything else?"
Although the two are siblings, Yan Nan doesn't care about his younger brother, so naturally he has no special feelings and care for him.
Because of this, Yan Xun only reported to him as usual every time he came back, and he would send someone to count them one by one, and the intersection between the two was just that, but this time he was keenly aware that something seemed to have changed in this nominal brother.
"Yan Nan, I've always wanted to ask you a question. ”
Say. ”
Yan Nan didn't care about Yan Xun calling him by his name, in fact, he only cared about the family.
"When my mother died, I kept a vigil for my mother, why didn't you come? Later, Yan Han made people beat me and destroy the mourning hall, didn't you notice it at all?"
Speaking of this, Yan Xun's voice paused slightly, with a hint of hatred in his voice.
Yan Nan's face, which was questioned by Yan Xun, was still unfazed, and finally shifted his gaze from the document to the face of his younger brother Yingting,
"What is the point of a wake, if a person dies like a lamp goes out?"
His face was ordinary, but the words he said were as cold as the ice of a thousand autumns,
"I know that Yan Han sent people to beat you, and I also know that they deliberately provoked you and made you fight with them and destroy the mourning hall, but the law of the jungle is the norm, and the Yan family needs to compete. ”
Hearing this, Yan Xun, who was originally expressionless, turned three points pale on his face.
He was originally only the elder brother of this mother's compatriot and had no time to take care of him, so although he was humiliated over the years, he never complained about Yannan, and he also had brotherly love for him.
But today's words made Yan Xun disheartened, he never expected that this person knew everything but had been watching from the sidelines!
"Yes, it's me who deceives myself, how can the Yan family's unicorn not see through the filth hidden in the secrets of the Yan family?"
With a miserable laugh, Yan Xun closed his eyes directly, turned around and walked out.
Looking at the back of Yan Xun leaving, Yan Nan stared at it for a long time with deep eyes, but in the end he didn't speak again, but lowered his head and continued to study the documents in his hand.
"What, frustrated?"
Xu Zhiheng leaned on the sofa in the reception room, held a grape in his hand, put it in his mouth and said with a smile,
"That's to be expected. ”
Although Yan Xun's face was pale, he had already adjusted his emotions, and he didn't want to say more on this topic.
Xu Zhiheng understood, and didn't laugh anymore, but said a little more seriously,
"How's it going, is there a result?"
Although Yan Xun has not been taken seriously and has not been able to cultivate over the years, all this has also given him more time to lay out.
Everyone in the Yan family knows that the Yan family is resourceful and young. Although the cultivation level of Gu Wu is also top-notch, he can use his strategy to convince everyone, and turn the tide when the Yan family is about to be destroyed several times, so he has secured his position in the Yan Sect.
But how many people know that he, Yan Xun, with some trivial and meager strength, actually built his own intelligence network on the basis of relying on the Yan family's intelligence network?
"That's right, it's indeed the Chu family. ”
Yan Xun nodded slightly, but Xu Zhiheng had a somewhat strange face.
Yan Xun had told Xu Zhiheng the night before that he had never heard of Chu Zixiu's name, but he knew that in the Seven Hidden Sects of the Ancient Martial Realm, there was a family surnamed Chu!
"According to the feedback from the intelligence officers, someone from the Chu clan had been active in Yanjing before, and the comparison time happened to be the time when Chu Zixiu disappeared as you said. ”
Yan Xun added, but he also noticed that Xu Zhiheng had some doubts on his face, so he asked again,
"What, what's wrong?"
Xu Zhiheng was slightly silent, his right index finger tapped the table in the reception room slightly, and after thinking for a while, he said,
"The Chu Zixiu in my memory, who didn't practice Guwu before, is a business management talent on weekdays, and it doesn't seem to fit the Chu family you said doesn't quite match ......"
Yan Xun raised his eyebrows, but he quickly connected with his own experience, and then asked,
"Is it the same as me?
"No, I tried to let him practice martial arts later, and he was quite talented. ”
Hearing Xu Zhiheng say this, Yan Xun was really a little confused.
If it is a person without roots, it is just that, even if he leaves the Chu clan, it is not difficult to understand. But if it is really like what Xu Zhiheng said, then Chu Zixiu is quite talented, then how could he, who was born in an ancient martial arts family, not cultivate ancient martial arts?
"You continue to keep up with this matter, and try to contact the Chu clan again, I always feel that there seems to be a secret hidden here......"
