In the Strengthening Pavilion, Xue Jian had just taught a group of students to do a set of fitness movements, and when he was about to rest, Chu Shan came in a hurry.

He came to Xue Jian's side and whispered a few words in his ear, and suddenly Xue Jian's expression changed, but soon he calmed down.

Three people who were suspected to be the Black Sword Guards of the Imperial City, Xue Jian thought about it in his heart, and knew that these people were probably coming for him.

It's been almost a month since he crossed over, and Xue Jian has slowly fused the memories of the original owner and learned a lot of secrets.

Among them, there is how the Xue family declined and disappeared in Nanfu City.

It all started with the Xue family's caravan, which obtained a remnant monument in an accident.

This remnant tablet is rumored to come from the land of the dragon vein of the Dayu Dynasty, which is closely related to the luck of the royal family, and is known as the Nine Dragons Tablet.

At first, after the Xue family got this stele, they didn't know the origin, and they also invited a famous treasure connoisseur to know the origin of the stele.

In this regard, the Xue family was sincerely afraid.

A remnant monument related to the luck of the royal family is undoubtedly a hot potato, in case the news leaks and is known by the royal family of the Dayu Dynasty, the Xue family is in a catastrophe.

But somehow the head of the Xue family at that time was obsessed with ghosts, so he chose to override public opinion, left a remnant monument, and used it as a thing for the family ancestral hall to gather and transport.

This caused a lot of opposition, but overnight, all those who opposed it were secretly executed, leaving behind the supporters of the head of the family, and very few people knew about the remnant.

In this way, the remnant monument of the Nine Dragons was buried under the ancestral hall of the Xue family as a treasure to gather luck.

I don't know if it's the effect of this heavy treasure, the Xue family rose rapidly, and soon changed from a small family in Nanfu City to a big family, and this only took less than a hundred years.

In the history of Nanfu City, the Xue family has the longest history, thousands of years.

In the past thousand years, the Xue family's business has become bigger and bigger, and its influence has become more and more extensive, and it has accepted many small families who have come to Nanfu City to develop, including the Chu family who fled to Nanfu City to avoid disasters.

It was also at that time that the two families of Xue Chu formed a deep friendship and established a relationship of generations of in-laws.

It can be said that without the Xue family, the Chu family would have been wiped out thousands of years ago.

This is also the reason why the old lady of the Chu family tried his best to accept Xue Jian.

It's just that paper can't contain fire.

I don't know who leaked the news, but the three princes of the Dayu Dynasty actually knew that the Xue family owned the Nine Dragons Monument.

The three princes are ambitious and want to compete for the throne, and this remnant monument related to the luck of the royal family is what he is determined to obtain.

Just a year ago, the third prince Zeng Weifu paid a private visit and came to Nanfu City to ask the head of the Xue family, who is Xue Jian's biological father, to hand over the remnants of the monument.

But at that time, Xue Jian's father refused, because they knew that the prosperity of the Xue family for thousands of years was caused by the gathering of the remnants of the Nine Dragons.

Later, the third prince sent someone to attack the Xue family once as a warning.

He didn't want to make a big deal out of it, otherwise the matter of the Nine Dragons Monument would be exposed, and it would definitely be taken away by his father.

Xue Jian's father did not compromise because of this, but secretly planned to secretly sell the family property and arrange for the clansmen to escape from the Dayu Dynasty overnight.

Only a lonely eldest son was left and entrusted to the Chu family.

Because he knew that the three princes would not give up, and they would be hunted down and killed all the way away.

After that, Xue Jian didn't know, but this time when the person suspected of being the Black Sword Guard arrived, he immediately thought of the Third Prince.

"Could it be that the third prince didn't get the Nine Dragons Remnant Monument, but suspected that the Remnant Monument was in the Chu family?"

Xue Jian secretly guessed in his heart.

If this is the case, the Chu family is afraid that they will suffer a catastrophe, and he, as the only clansman of the Xue family in Nanfu City now, will also be in a catastrophe.

After thinking about it, Xue Jian suddenly had a plan in his heart.

He looked at a young man who was cultivating hard at the moment and said.

"Qin Feng, I have something for you to do. ”

That young man named "Qin Feng" was the first student to become a martial artist from an ordinary person some time ago.

In his heart, he had already regarded Xue Jian as a teacher, and he did not hesitate to hold his fists at this moment.

"Head Coach, please speak. ”

There are two huge fitness gyms, and naturally there will not be only one coach for Xue Jian.

From many outstanding students, he focused on cultivating more than a dozen students with good conduct and hard work, and let them serve as coaches.

This Qin Feng is also a coach now, but everyone respectfully calls Xue Jian the head coach.

"You hurry up and gather all the students, and in an hour, let them all gather at the gate of the Chu family. ”

Qin Feng hugged his fists and said yes, and almost obeyed Xue Jian's words.

Chu Shan was also left behind to help Qin Feng organize manpower.

Don't look at these students, some are from big families, some are from ordinary families, and some are from poor families.

But after cultivating together for such a long time, under Xue Jian's scientific and effective teaching, not only did they cultivate their feelings, but also became an organized and disciplined team.

Soon, Xue Jian secretly returned to the Chu family, and entered through the back door, he did not go straight to the hall in the front yard, but walked towards a secluded courtyard in the back yard.

The Chu family usually doesn't come close here, only Xue Jian comes to visit once in a while.

At the entrance of the courtyard, the boy was hanging from a tree doing pull-ups.

Seeing Xue Jian coming, the young man landed steadily, clapped his hands, and said hello with a smile.

"The head coach is here. ”

During this time, the young man followed Xue Jian to practice that set of exercises, and occasionally went to the gym to practice with them, and after getting along for a long time, the two got acquainted with each other a lot.

He continued.

"My son-in-law has been waiting for a long time, come with me. ”

Xue saw with a smile, no surprise, and silently followed him into a small Accord building in the courtyard.

On a terrace on the second floor, a young nobleman in a velvet fur was boiling water for sencha himself.

Seeing Xue coming, he looked up at him and smiled at him and beckoned, motioning for him to sit opposite.

On the other side, the old shopkeeper was playing against an old man in black, and the two of them played chess against each other, and they didn't look up at Xue Jian.

After he sat down opposite this boy, he held his breath and waited calmly for a pot of tea to be boiled, and then said slowly.

"Jiang Gongzi, I came here today to ask for something. ”

This Jiang Gongzi was calm, smiling silently, but just stretched out his hand to signal Xue Jian to taste tea first.

These days, although the two have not intersected much, there is a sentence that describes them very appropriately.

Good fences make good neighbors.

There seems to be a tacit understanding between them, and they don't need to use too many words to seem to understand each other's thoughts.

A cup of tea was slowly drunk, and Jiang Gongzi spoke calmly.

"It's because of the three guys in the front yard. ”

Xue Jian nodded calmly.

Although he didn't know the identity of this person, he called the old shopkeeper who had served as the country's priest a teacher, and Xue Jian guessed it.

This one is from the royal family.

And the surname "Jiang" is not something that ordinary people can have, in the Dayu Dynasty, the current emperor, the surname is "Jiang".

Jiang Gongzi stared at Xue Jian's eyes and asked slowly.

"I've also heard about the Xue family, but I don't know ...... How did you provoke my third brother?"

Hearing the title of "Third Brother", although Xue Jian had already guessed, he was still taken aback.

The current emperor is already old and has many heirs, but there are only five people who are most likely to inherit the throne, and I don't know if this person in front of him is among them.

Xue Jian replied calmly.

"I was young when this happened, and I don't know why. ”

Jiang Gongzi looked at his eyes calmly for a long time, as if he wanted to see the truth from his eyes, but he found nothing.

He shook his head and smiled.

"That's it, old things, don't mention it again, I only ask you one thing, do you want to avenge your family?"

As soon as these words came out, Xue Jian didn't react, and the two old men playing chess next to him both trembled their arms, and the chess pieces in their hands fell to the floor with a bang.

To avenge the family, doesn't this mean that he will get rid of the three princes.

This Jiang Gongzi is gentle and amiable on the surface, but he is actually ambitious.

Xue Jian was silent for a moment and nodded emphatically.

Whether to take revenge or not, he had never thought about it before, but if he didn't agree today, the fall of the Chu family would be a foregone conclusion.

Besides, this Jiang Gongzi asked this kind of thing, indicating his ambition, if Xue Jian didn't agree, how could he get out of here alive.

Jiang Gongzi raised his head and laughed, grabbed Xue Jian's left arm, and got up.

"I am very relieved to have this talent. ”

After speaking, he and Xue Jian walked down the attic hand in hand, and the old shopkeeper, the old man in black, and the young man hurriedly followed behind.

At this moment, in the hall in the front yard of the Chu family, the situation was extremely tense.

The white-faced man sitting on the main seat glanced at everyone coldly and said.

"Our family came from the imperial city and was ordered to track down a fugitive felon, I heard that this felony became the son-in-law of your Chu family, I don't know if this matter is true or not?"

As soon as these words came out, the faces of the Chu family people present changed greatly.

The reason for the decline of the Xue family is known to many people in Nanfu City.

I heard that it was because the Xue family offended a powerful person in the dynasty that they had to flee from the Dayu Dynasty.

But they had never heard of any serious crimes committed by the Xue family, and the City Lord's Mansion had not issued a wanted warrant.

Chu Donghe hurriedly got up and said.

"My lord, I really don't know what to repeat. ”

The white-faced man sneered and said sharply.

"I don't know, then the remnants of the Xue family have joined your Chu family, everyone knows that you, as the head of the family, deliberately harbored repeat offenders, what crime should you be guilty of!"

If it was before, Chu Donghe would definitely sell Xue Jian without hesitation, but now, he would never do this.

"When did the Xue family become a repeat offender? I don't know about this matter, and the City Lord's Mansion has never issued a wanted warrant, please be cautious. ”

As soon as these words came out, the situation in the hall suddenly became tense, and the two black sword guards, with a fierce look in their eyes, got up and drew their knives at the same time.

"Presumptuous!"

A coercion emanated from the two of them, and Chu Donghe immediately launched the cultivation resistance of the Dan Yuan Realm.

But the white-faced man suddenly slammed the table, and an invisible ripple spread from his palm.

In an instant, the table shattered, the floor cracked, and Chu Donghe and the others fell backwards unbearably, knocking over a large number of tables and chairs.

Everyone looked at each other in horror.

This momentum, this coercion, they have only felt from their own old man, and it is even stronger.

This is a little grandmaster of the Mixed Yuan Realm.

At this moment, there was a soft shout from outside the door, the voice was not loud, but it had a majesty that could not be resisted.

"Who is presumptuous here!"
