Chapter 229: The Chen Family (1)
"After Xiao Lei arranges the formation, you will go to Chen's house and return the Situ family's property, after all, it is someone else's thing, and it is not a matter to carry it with you all the time. Getting rid of this matter will also help your state of mind. ”
Although Zhong Hou had this plan for a long time, Zhou Bo's sudden change of topic still made him feel a little uncomfortable.
But then he understood Zhou Bo's intentions.
Zhou Bo wanted him to leave, so that he would be implicated when the enemy hit the door.
After thinking about it, Zhong Hou readily agreed, not only that, but he also brought his father-in-law Fu Bo with him.
Since there is imminent danger here, it is natural that Fubo, an ordinary person, cannot be allowed to stand under the dangerous wall.
Zhong Hou's move did not surprise Zhou Bo, but the two tacitly did not say anything.
As for whether Zhong Hou will secretly return after the Chen family's trip is over, Zhou Bo can't control it, so he can only see one step at a time.
In the past two days, the proprietor has been happy, and the tavern has been temporarily closed, except for the busy man, the days have been leisurely.
Zhong Hou occasionally talked to the two elders, and occasionally instructed Fei Tianzhou to cultivate, which was a rare relaxation of body and mind.
However, Zhong Hou and Zhou Bo both knew that it was just the darkness before dawn, the calm before the storm.
Two days later, a third-level formation with the dual functions of attack and defense quietly rose up in the tavern.
With the current ability of the fox, even the fifth-level formation can be arranged, but firstly, the time is limited, and secondly, the materials are limited, so it can only be done temporarily.
Danger can come at any time, and Fu Bo must send him away immediately, and Zhong Hou has no time to stay longer.
Zhong Hou wants to go, and the fox will inevitably follow, so the fox can only do the best under limited conditions.
But don't underestimate the third-level formation, if it is a cultivation in the Star Mantle Realm or below, if they don't understand the formation path, the third-level formation will be their nightmare, and there will definitely be no return.
Even if it is a star core realm powerhouse, as long as they don't understand the formation path, the third-level formation is also an insurmountable gap.
According to Zhou Bo's knowledge, the Blood Killing Alliance does not teach anything except killing techniques. Therefore, unless the killer of the Blood Killing Alliance has an adventure outside, he must know nothing about the battle path.
In addition, with Zhou Bo, a star core realm powerhouse, presiding over the formation, the Blood Killing Alliance really came to attack, and it is still unknown who will die in the end.
It's over, Zhong Hou, Fu Bo, Fei Tianzhou, and Lixi, three people and one beast officially went to Guangping City.
On the way, Xiao 9 issued a task to Zhong Hou, and because Fu Bo was an 'outsider', after the task was released, Xiao 9 continued to be silent.
Content: Help 9527 absorb life energy.
Mission time: half a year.
Mission requirements: 1. Life forms with a life energy level of more than one layer, 2000; 2. Life forms with a life energy level of more than 10 layers, 1000; 3. Life forms with a life energy level of more than 19 layers, 500; 4. Life forms with a life energy level of more than 28 layers, 250; 5. Life forms with a life energy level of more than 37 layers, 100. 6. The life energy level is more than 46 levels, 50. Note: Choose one of the six.
Reward: Ascend to the second level of the realm.
Quest Punishment: Lowers the realm by one level.
This kind of task requirement is the first time Zhong Hou has encountered it, but the content is not difficult to understand.
Each major realm is divided into nine small realms, and there are a total of fifty-four layers in the six realms of the day after tomorrow, the star surface realm, the star shell realm, the star mantle realm, the star core realm, and the source star realm.
The first layer actually represents the latter layer, the tenth layer represents the first layer of the star catalog realm, the nineteenth layer represents the first layer of the star shell realm, the twenty-eighth layer represents the first layer of the star mantle realm, the thirty-seventh layer represents the first layer of the star core realm, and the forty-sixth layer represents the first layer of the source star realm.
In the Star Continent, the highest is the fifty-fourth layer, or fifty-fourth level. If you break through to level fifty-five, you will definitely have soared to the upper realm.
Zhong Hou was also not surprised by the punishment for failure in the task, which was what Xiao 9 had said before. However, for the reward, Zhong Hou had some doubts in his heart.
His current physical cultivation is the ninth layer of the Bone Forging Realm, and if he improves two layers, he can break through to the second layer of the Muscle Refining Realm, which is nothing. However, his current star power cultivation is already at the ninth layer of the Star Shell Realm, and if he ascends two layers, he will break through to the second layer of the Star Mantle Realm, and if he wants to cross this threshold, he needs to cross the Heavenly Tribulation.
So Zhong Hou wanted to know how Xiao 9 dealt with this matter.
However, he was afraid of being punished, so he didn't ask much for the time being, so he could only wait for the opportunity to talk about it later.
In addition to this, Zhong Hou also discovered a pattern.
Whether it was the first mission or the last punishment, Zhong Hou felt that Xiao 9's orders were forward-looking. As soon as the order is issued, there will be a killing soon after, and then the order will be completed logically.
In other words, if this law discovered by Zhong Hou is true, it is estimated that the Chen family's trip will not be peaceful.
Of course, this is just Zhong Hou's speculation, and it is still unknown whether it is true.
For the time being, Zhong Hou can't figure it out, and he is too lazy to worry about it, so he can only wait for the opportunity to ask later.
Guangping City, like Anyang City, is a small city in a corner of the country with a dirty name.
The status of the Chen family in Guangping City is equivalent to the status of the Situ family in Anyang City, and they are all the same existence as the Earth Emperor.
Since he is the emperor of the soil, he is naturally very concerned about his own one-third of an acre, so the prosperity of Guangping City is not worse than that of Anyang City in the past.
In Quang Binh City, all kinds of noise and shouting are endless.
As soon as Zhong Hou and Fu Bo entered the city, they smelled a familiar smell of the market.
It's a pity that this smell has disappeared in Anyang City, and it will definitely not be able to reappear in a short time.
Fei Tianzhou has a prominent background, and he can't look down on the prosperity of this scale at all, so he can only look around with great curiosity.
It's just that the three of them and one beast didn't go far, and before they could inquire about the Chen family's location, a sneaky figure appeared behind them.
With the strength of Zhong Hou and Lixi, if the other party wants to be unaware, it is simply a fool's dream, and even Fei Tianzhou can't hide it, let alone the two of them.
However, the other party didn't seem to have a hidden meaning, it seemed random, but in fact, he approached them quickly with great agility.
Zhong Hou and Fei Tianzhou glanced at each other, and then slowly slowed down, ready to see what the other party wanted.
The other party has no cultivation at all, not even the first layer of the day after tomorrow, and the two are not afraid of any bad intentions of the other party at all.
When he got closer, the other party pretended to accidentally touch Zhong Hou lightly, and then quickly apologized: "I'm sorry... Excuse me... ”
At the same time, his eyes did not shy away from looking at Zhong Hou, as if he wanted to convey some information.
In a flash of light, it was all over, and it didn't attract anyone's attention at all.
The other party came and went in a hurry, and disappeared into the crowd in a blink of an eye.
There is already a small ball of paper in the thick hand of this clock.
After a simple glance at the contents, Zhong Hou stuffed the small paper ball into Fei Tianzhou's hand.
A time and an address were written on the small paper ball, everyone was coming to Guangping City for the first time, and they were completely unfamiliar with the environment here, so the rough work of addressing and asking for directions was naturally handed over to the younger brother to do.
"Father-in-law, you should be tired from the long journey. Why don't we find an inn to repair for two days, and then we can go together when we find out where the Chen family is?"
"Okay, it's up to you. ”
Fu Bo didn't have that much thought, and he didn't know the intention of Zhong Hou's move at all.
Fei Tianzhou excused himself to inquire about the news and left easily.
That night, while Fu Bo was asleep, Zhong Hou, Fei Tianzhou and Lixi secretly left the inn and went to the address they had heard in advance.
