On the Qishan incident, the Zhang family chose to remain silent. Zhang Jiahao's father, Zhang Kang, even took the initiative to contact the school to quell the incident on the grounds that "his son is engaged and the prospective couple is allowed to go abroad for further study".

This incident caused a lot of sensation in the Xingong University, and everyone was shocked by Zhang Jiahao's sudden abandonment of Su Ziqing, and the "Golden Boy and Jade Girl" Lao Yanfenfei was so shocked that her eyes fell out of the window.

Su Ziqing didn't say anything about this, still maintaining her usual style of indifference, and her face seemed to say "Breaking up or something, it's just a lost used tissue";

Yang Zhen was also quite surprised: The Zhang family actually took the initiative to settle the matter?

Shu Xiaoman's explanation for this is:

"Regardless of the life and death of the cultivator's duel, no matter whether they win or lose, everyone doesn't want to let the worldly forces intervene, this has been the rule for thousands of years, what's so strange. ”

Yang Zhen just smiled at this, he felt that things would not be so simple, because the object of Zhang Jiahao's "engagement" was Tang Shiyue - Zhang Kang even helped solve Tang Shiyue's problem, and the intimate service to this extent was the difference between the saint who "incited the left face and stretched out the right cheek"?

However, he went to visit Tang Shiyue's parents, but they actually said the same thing, and he went to visit Lin Lan who was lying in the hospital, but Lin Lan actually said:

"Shiyue has already told me about getting engaged, and Jiahao is still going to take her to the Maldives for a vacation, hey~ I'm really envious......"

After speaking, he also showed a longing expression.

※※※

At the beginning of the lanterns, Su's Mansion.

In the splendid restaurant, Sunan sat at the end of the elegant and noble restaurant, silently accompanying his daughter to eat.

The population of the Su family is small, there are only their father and daughter at both ends of the nearly 3-meter table, dotted with flowers and candles in the middle, and the waiter in white lightly spreads the dishes on the table, and quietly retreats, everything is in order, like a social dinner of the British royal family.

But this is actually a home-cooked meal, Sunan can't remember how long he hasn't eaten with his daughter, the last time he remembered that the father and daughter sat together was when Su Ziqing first entered the Xingong University two years ago, when Su Ziqing was still wearing a sailor suit and a red scarf, her face was childish, but in the blink of an eye, she had become a slim girl.

"The eighteenth change of the female university~" Sunan couldn't help but sigh.

It's only been two years, and his daughter has grown so big that he doesn't even know him.

The door opened silently, and the housekeeper Su Fu walked in quickly. Sunan was a little surprised, Su Fu is an old man who has been with their family for decades, he is the best housekeeper, and he always has the impeccable smile of a wealthy housekeeper on his face, flawless and indifferent, but at this moment his expression has changed and become a little dignified, which has never been seen in Sunan's impression.

"What's the matter?" he asked.

Su Fu secretly glanced at Su Ziqing, and immediately retracted: "Zhang Jiahao is dead." ”

Sunan was stunned, he knew that this follower beside his daughter, speaking of which, Zhang Jiahao was not bad for his daughter, and his mind Sunan also understood, but he couldn't be the son-in-law of the Su family.

He couldn't help but look at Su Ziqing too, but Su Ziqing just lowered her head to eat, she couldn't see her expression clearly, all she could see was the fine hairline on the top of her head, the lavender pendant in her ears sparkling in the candlelight, and her eating movements were elegant, noble like a princess.

But she is also as cold as a princess.

Sunan knew what her daughter meant to Zhang Jiahao, but after all, Zhang Jiahao had been her attendant for so many years, but Su Ziqing didn't react at all when she heard Zhang Jiahao's bad news, and her hand scooping the soup didn't even pause.

Sunan frowned.

"Zhang Jiahao is dead. He repeated it again.

"I see. Su Ziqing replied nonchalantly.

Sunan's brows wrung deeper......

"Don't want to ask something?"

This time, Su Ziqing put down the spoon: "Do you need it?" didn't you say that I should pay less attention to him?"

Sunan was asked. He did say this sentence, and it was said when he first saw Zhang Jiahao's intentions for his daughter, in order to prevent his daughter from having any distractions. In Sunan's heart, the candidate for son-in-law can only be Yang Zhen.

But having said that, his daughter's reaction made him feel strange: ordinary people, even if they have a cat or a dog, they will be uncomfortable when they die, but ......

Sunan remembered that Su Ziqing was not like this when she was in junior high school, she was lively and cheerful at that time, optimistic, and like now. He suddenly felt that his daughter had become so strange, just like the distance between the two at this moment, separated by a long dining table, and he could no longer see clearly.

"How did Zhang Jiahao die?" he turned to ask the butler.

"I don't know exactly what to do. Su Fu said, "But someone saw Shu's Shu Xiaoman and his uncle that day......"

When he said this, he subconsciously looked at Su Ziqing, and sure enough, the girl's movements froze, and he hurriedly changed his words:

“...... appeared in Qishan with Yang Zhen, and then Zhang Jiahao had an accident, and the strange thing is that the Zhang family seems to have decided to keep silent about it. ”

Sunan leaned back in his chair and knocked on the table unconsciously with one hand, Zhang Jiahao's cultivation was better than Shu Xiaoman, as for Yang Zhen......

Yang Mingcheng said that he had just embarked on the road of cultivating truth, and such two people could pose a threat to Zhang Jiahao?

And the attitude of the Zhang family is also very strange......

"Check again. He instructed Sufu.

The latter bowed slightly and went out, and Sunan turned his head again to focus his gaze on Su Ziqing:

"The Zhang family may have some conspiracy against Yang Zhen, I think you ......"

"I refuse. Su Ziqing looked up coldly.

Father and daughter are united, and there is no need for Sunan to finish speaking, she also understands what the other party means.

Her father hoped that she could protect Yang Zhen.

Sunan's face sank.

"Why?" he asked, "You disliked him as a mortal at the beginning, but now he is also a cultivator. ”

"So what?" Su Ziqing asked lightly, "Dad~ I said something ugly, is a man who needs the protection of a girl still a man?"

"You're ......!"

"And such a man is the husband you carefully chose for me?"

Su Ziqing left this sentence and got up and left the restaurant.

Although she admitted that Yang Zhen could also cultivate the truth, it was quite surprising to her, but Su Ziqing herself was also a cultivator, at the beginning, she used countless heavenly and earthly treasures to cultivate the original solid yuan, and it took many years to get to where she is today, how much can a person who has just set foot in cultivating the truth have?

Regarding marriage, Su Ziqing and his father have mentioned it many times, but his father is stubborn, he just insists on letting her marry that person, Su Ziqing really can't see anything good about Yang Zhen, he can't compare to Zhang Jiahao in terms of appearance, he is a nail household in a shantytown in terms of family background, let alone cultivation - she can't even look down on Zhang Jiahao, how can she look down on Yang Zhen?

Because of this, the father and daughter quarreled on the phone many times, and finally had to stop mentioning it, which was considered to maintain a delicate peace, but she did not expect her father to come again today - and further asked her to protect the waste material...... Su Ziqing was a little angry.

"Ah~~"

In the restaurant, Sunan sighed long.

Although her daughter's voice was not loud, she was aggressive between the lines, and Sunan didn't know how to deal with it for a while. Of course, he had his reason for falling in love with Yang Zhen, but he couldn't say this reason yet, so he could only quietly watch his daughter's back disappear into the corner of the corridor without saying a word for a long time.

※※※

The next day, Shingu University High School.

In the corner of the crowded college cafeteria, Shu Xiaoman calmly concluded after listening to Yang Zhen talk about everything:

"Memory weaving. She said, "It seems that the Zhang family handled it professionally. ”

Yang Zhen couldn't help but glance at her: "This is not a matter of specialization or unprofessionalism, right?

"There are always exceptions to everything~" Shu Xiaoman disagreed, "I will do the same if I were replaced, maintaining the secret of the cultivation world is the consensus of all cultivators, and anything can be flexible under this principle." ”

Okay~ Even if it can be explained in this way, but wipe the ass for the murderer and the enemy, and wipe it so cleanly...... If you change Yang Zhen, you might as well simply wipe your neck yourself.

But in any case, life returned to peace. Yang Zhen is still the "lewd villain" who loves to complain in the eyes of his classmates, almost no one in the class talks to him except Shu Xiaoman, the girls look at him like garbage, and the boys look at him like air.

Yang Zhen doesn't care about this - although as a generation of soldiers, there is a saying that "if you are touched on the head without killing the whole family", so "if you are ignored, you must quickly prove your existence", but accidents also need to be done, isn't it?

Like what...... What happens too?

It's not a matter of going online, so why bother?

Sometimes Yang Zhen also feels that he doesn't feel like a soldier king, he has an easy-going personality, and sometimes he is a little wilted, and you can hardly feel some kind of king in him...... Oh, that's wrong, it's the fixed attribute of the king of soldiers, but there is a premise for this - it is not in the mission.

He didn't have time to care about the eyes of other classmates: although the Zhang family was calm, he didn't forget Zhang Jiahao's warning:

"Take the chess pieces, and the family won't let you go. ”

Yang Zhen believed that there must be an unknown conspiracy hidden under the apparent calm, and the best way was to improve his strength and cultivation.

But the system, which was handsome for no more than three minutes, has become a pool of stagnant water since that night's amazing momentary outburst, and nothing has been given except "thank you for participating".

Yang Zhen tried everything he could, but it was useless, his system perfectly interpreted the word cold, which made him scratch his ears and cheeks but was at a loss.

However, if there is no gain at all, it is not enough, after a few days of research, Yang Zhen gradually discovered several characteristics of this system:

The first is that he doesn't need to return to the gray fog world every time to check in, and he can check in directly through his mind in the real world - as long as he pins the time.

The second is that there is a characteristic of this gray fog world, that is, you can bring things from the real world into it, and then people can take it out directly through their minds in reality, just like a space ring.

These two discoveries are important and important, because in this way, Yang Zhen can sign in anytime and anywhere, which is much more convenient, and the function of the space ring makes it more convenient to access items......;

And it doesn't seem to have any real value?

"And~ I think you should also pay attention to the impact, and there should be a limit to pretending to be cool. Shu Xiaoman said again.

"How can I pretend to be cool?" Yang Zhen glared at her innocently.

So the girl took out her smartphone to log in to the school's BBS, and the above set of photos was shocking:

The first picture: The classroom window in the sun is bright and clean, and the lonely teenager looks out the window with his cheek in one hand, his eyes deep and distant.

The second picture: The slanting wind in the maple forest is thin, the young man with his schoolbag in his hands in his pockets, passing through the woods with a cold face, a gust of wind rolls up the fallen leaves all over the ground, and the young man's back is miserable.

"It's like being alone. Yang Zhen said.

"No, it's Chen Beixuan. Shu Xiaoman pulled the page to the top, and the title made people cover their faces:

Actually, I really don't like to pretend,

As a forced king, he is invincible and lonely.

Yang Zhen: "......"

"Usually forget it," Shu Xiaoman put away his phone, "but at least you have to listen carefully in class, right? ”

"How can I still have the kung fu to listen to the class now~" Yang Zhen sighed.

Now he is highly vigilant all day long for the problems of the system, as well as Zhang Jiahao's warning, he holds a knife when he sleeps, and he hasn't had a good rest for many days, can he not doze off during class time?

And......

"Don't you think the Zhang family's attitude is abnormal?"

"Abnormal?"

"I know what you're going to say about life and death duels to the death. Even if your theory makes sense, but ......"

"Maybe the Zhang family found out that Zhang Jiahao was practicing forbidden arts, so they deliberately kept a low profile and wanted to calm things down?" Shu Xiaoman put forward his opinion.

She can't forget the scene of Zhang Jiahao's fusion of mountain ghosts that night, a good person instantly became a half-human and half-ghost demon, Shu Xiaoman doesn't know how Zhang Jiahao did it now when the gods and demons have died out, but this kind of magic is extremely harmful, as early as a thousand years ago, it was designated as an evil art by the major cultivation families, and the cultivation of evil arts is not tolerated, and all cultivators are punished, and it is reasonable for the Zhang family to want to deal with it in a low-key manner.

Yang Zhen pondered for a moment, but still shook his head:

"In any case, Zhang Jiahao is Zhang Kang's son, and the white hair and black hair are miserable in life. But when his dad came to school that day, we all saw it, and he didn't look a little sad, is this normal?"

When she said this, Shu Xiaoman also showed a contemplative expression: that day, Zhang Kang came to the school to deal with Zhang Jiahao's "transfer procedures", she and Yang Zhenhao came out of the classroom, and saw Zhang Kang pulling the principal with a red face and saying words of thanks, what to thank the principal for his care for so long, and said that he would build a swimming pool for the school...... It's a bit of a stretch.

"So~" Yang Zhen emphasized, "I suspect that the Zhang family must be secretly engaged in some conspiracy." People have already sharpened their knives, I have to hurry up and prepare—speaking of which, except for the auction, there is no way to get the cultivation of the true exercises?"
