Chapter 3: The Family Dinner

In the Yu family, on the evening of the first day of the first month of the month, the old family head Yu Zhengming would appear in the main hall for dinner. And every night on this day, it is the time for the Yu family to eat together.

Except for Yu Hao's parents, Yu Congnan and his wife, who were in charge of managing the business in the city and could not rush back, all the other members of the Yu family would attend.

When Yu Hao came to the main hall, everyone had already arrived.

There were two tables in the main hall, and there were only six seats above the chief.

The old man sitting on the main seat is Yu Zhengming, who has established the Yu family in Jinyang City, on his left, sitting on the eldest uncle Yu Congdong, and on the right side sitting on the fourth uncle Yu Congbei, there is a vacant seat next to the eldest uncle Yu Congdong, which is the seat of his father Yu Congnan, and his father has not had time to rush back when he is managing the business.

On another seat, there was a young and handsome young man, who was the eldest son and eldest grandson Yu Yuan, who had already broken through to the nine-star forging body at the age of twenty, and Yu Hao was sitting opposite the eldest brother Yu Yuan.

In the Yu Mansion, among the third-generation disciples, only Yu Hao and eldest brother Yu Yuan were allowed to sit at the same table with several elders, and Yu Hao was the first third-generation disciple to be included in the chief four years ago, and the eldest brother Yu Yuan was only included in the chief when he broke through to the nine-star forging body this year.

In the second seat, there sat the female dependents and all the three generations of children.

Yu Zhengming, who was sitting in the first place, was sturdy and had a pair of tiger eyes like Gutan, he raised his head and smiled, and said, "Except for Congnan and his wife, everyone else has arrived! Congdong, is there anything you need to say?"

The old head Yu Zhengming is gradually handing over the family affairs to the eldest uncle Yu Congdong to manage, so that he will not inherit the position of the head of the family in the future and will not be inexperienced and in a hurry.

Yu Congdong hurriedly saluted and said with a smile on his face: "Dad, the child wants to tell you good news." ”

A hint of surprise flashed in Yu Zhengming's eyes, and he asked, "What good news?"

Yu Congdong stretched out his finger and pointed at the second child, Yu You, and said, "You'er, he is already an eight-star forging body!"

The main hall suddenly fell silent, and Yu Zhengming asked in surprise: "You'er, have you broken through to the eighth star?"

Yu You stood up, nodded, and said respectfully: "Yes, grandpa!" Then he scratched his head and whispered: "It's only eight stars, and the third child reached it five years ago, what kind of good news is this!"

The expressions of the three generations of disciples on the second seat were very different, Yu Hao and him glanced at each other, their eyes were full of joy, if it wasn't for the elders here at this moment, he would definitely go to Yu You to have a drink or two.

Chief eldest brother Yu Yuan smiled slightly and congratulated, and at the same time felt a lot of pressure in his heart. The fourth brother Yu Hong is face changed slightly, his eyes were extremely complicated, his eyes were a little gloomy and envious, and at the same time a trace of dazedness flashed, the four brothers in the family seemed to be the weakest, only a six-star forging body, of course, excluding his fifth sister Yu Xue.

Yu Zhengming's serious face finally showed a happy smile, and said, "You'er, you are really good, come here, send this news to the business, and let Congnan be happy." ”

The old master's orders were naturally handled immediately, and there was no need for the direct members of the family to worry about it at all.

Yu Zhengming stood up from his seat, his hearty and undisguised joyful laughter sounded in the hall, and said: "Okay, great, the younger generation of our Yu family is really competitive, and in another month, it will be the Great Competition of the Three Clans, and the juniors of other forces in Jinyang City will participate, you can't fall behind the momentum of our Yu family!"

"Yes!" said the crowd solemnly.

The five-year three-clan competition in Jinyang City is the most lively time in the five years of Jinyang City, and even people outside Jinyang City will rush over to see the excitement.

Speaking of the three clans, it is necessary to mention the three major forces in Jinyang City, the Yu family, the Liu family, and the Chen family.

The Liu family and the Chen family are the local families of Jinyang City, which have developed here for several generations and have the richest heritage. And the Yu family, although it was founded for only 30 years, is the strongest among the three families. The Liu and Chen families are local forces, so they have some rejection of the Yu family, and over the years, they have been trying their best to suppress the Yu family, and even will not hesitate to drive the Yu family out of Jinyang City at every opportunity.

However, even if the Liu and Chen families have been operating for several generations, they each have a Tian Yuan Realm and a few True Yuan Realm masters. The three major families seem to be on par, but the overall strength of the Yu family is slightly superior.

The three-clan competition is jointly organized by these three families, in fact, in the final analysis, this is a kind of armed exchange between the younger generations of the three major families. Of course, this is also another form of secret competition between the three major families.

And whoever can stand out from the big competition, the family power where he is located will naturally be greatly glorious. And the family that wins the first place in Dabi will have a lot of lottery rewards.

Therefore, for the Great Competition of the Three Clans, the major forces in Jinyang City are all very important, and those juniors who participate are also the best among their respective families.

Yu Zhengming waved his hand casually and said, "This matter will be arranged from the east." ”

"Yes. Yu Congdong hesitated for a moment and said, "Dad, according to the news that the third brother got from the firm, this time the Chen family participated in the big competition, and there was Chen Song's name. ”

Yu Zhengming was slightly stunned, raised his eyebrows lightly, and said, "Chen Song, is the kid of the Chen family who has entered the Qianyuan Sect two years ago?"

"Exactly, that Chen Songgen has good bones, he was accepted as a disciple by the elders of the Qianyuan Sect who traveled abroad two years ago, and now at the age of nineteen, he has been promoted to the Nine Star Forging Body, and he is the only third-generation disciple of the Chen family who has the hope of impacting the True Yuan Realm. Yu Congdong said with a solemn expression.

"Nineteen-year-old Nine-Star Forging Body ......" Yu Zhengming nodded lightly, pondered for a moment, and suddenly showed a trace of disdainful sneer, and said: "My family Hao'er was already a nine-star forging body four years ago. ”

Yu Congdong suddenly said with a relaxed face: "Yes, Dad, Hao'er has already been promoted to the Nine-Star Forging Body, and now I am afraid that he has stepped into the True Yuan Realm with one foot." ”

When everyone heard this, they also looked at Yu Hao, who was among the chiefs, and there was pride in their eyes. In the last three-clan competition, Yu Hao, who was only nine years old, fought against the heroes, and the three generations of the Liu and Chen families were embarrassed.

Even the strongest child of the Liu family in the younger generation at that time, the twenty-five-year-old nine-star forging body Liu Tai, could not get a trace of bargain on Yu Hao, who was an eight-star forging body, and finally lost with one move. That battle shocked everyone in Jinyang City, thus achieving Yu Hao's name.

Only Yu Hao's heart sank slightly, in four years, those who had been thrown down dozens of streets by themselves in cultivation have slowly caught up, Chen Song of the Chen family, Yu Yuan, his eldest brother, and even Yu You in the same year has also forged his body with eight stars, but he has not advanced but retreated.

If this continues, even if his secret is not revealed, as long as one of the younger generations of the three major families is the first to break through to the True Yuan Realm, I am afraid that his reputation as 'Jinyang Yu Hao' will also become a joke.

Yu Zhengming suddenly snorted coldly and said, "Since the Chen family wants to rely on that Qianyuan Gate to suppress us, I don't want to let them get their way, and ...... from the east."

"In!"

"Tomorrow, you will report the names of Yuan'er, Hao'er, and You'er. A fierce light flashed in Yu Zhengming's eyes, and he said, "I want everyone in Jinyang City to know that no matter when, it is our Yu family's children who are the only ones who lead the way." ”

With the sonorous and powerful words of the old man, all the juniors present were in high spirits, and their eyes all showed a scorching light. This is not a personal vendetta, but a collective honor of the family.

Yu Zhengming said: "Before that, our Yu family will also hold a competition, so that the four of you brothers can directly learn from each other, enhance their actual combat experience, and test themselves at the same time." ”

"Okay, Dad, I'll arrange it later, how about three days later?"

Yu Zhengming nodded in agreement, and then motioned for everyone to eat.

After absent-mindedly finishing dinner, Yu Hao ran into his yard with a smoke, he already wanted to try it impatiently, whether the body forging spirit liquid could restore his strength, and his most urgent thing at present was to restore his strength......

Yu Hao took out a wooden box from his arms and slowly opened it, it was the spiritual liquid he bought in Danxing today, looking at the spiritual liquid in the transparent vial, Yu Hao took a deep breath and drank it in one gulp.

The spiritual fluid entered his abdomen, Yu Hao quickly crossed his legs and settled down, and in just a moment, he felt a sense of rhythm between his breaths. As the cultivation time was delayed, a faint airflow emanated from the body, and the airflow slowly climbed slightly. As if sensing the more and more abundant Yuan Force in his body, Yu Hao's little face showed a shallow smile of relief.

"Is this the energy in the spiritual fluid?"

Tasting the sweetness, Yu Hao did not stop there, and after a slight hesitation, he opened the remaining nine bottles of spiritual liquid one by one and drank them in one gulp.

After feeling the majestic air flow surging in his body, Yu Hao hurriedly closed his eyes, and the handprints on his fingertips did not move at all, concentrating on his qi, maintaining the best cultivation state, and continued to greedily absorb the energy in the spiritual fluid in his body.

Under the endless demand of the teenager, more and more air currents rose from the body, thus slipping into the body along the pores of the skin, warming the bones and washing the veins...... Feeling the changes in his body, it seemed that all of a sudden, his skin exuded a luster like warm jade.

The young man with his eyes closed inhaled the last wisp of air into his body, his eyelashes blinked slightly, and after a while, his golden eyes suddenly opened.

"I feel that my strength has become stronger again! My body has also become stronger! Now I should be able to cultivate Yuan Li, try again!"

Feeling the changes in his body, Yu Hao's heart was surging, and a trace of hope flashed in his eyes.

After saying that, he was still cross-legged and began to cultivate, as he settled down, his face gradually became ugly, as usual, just a trace of Yuan Force was cultivated in his body, and those Yuan Forces disappeared in the dantian.

"How so, how so, why not?"

Yu Hao was in an extremely heavy mood at the moment, as if a gambler had lost everything.

At night, Yu Hao tossed and turned all night sleeplessly, looking at the wooden beams that supported the house, and remembered the previous cultivation time. When he was five years old, he was nervous when he first cultivated Yuan Li in the dantian, when he was seven years old, he was surprised by his family when he broke through to the six-star forging body, and when he was ten years old, when he broke through to the nine-star forging body, 'Yu Hao' became synonymous with the genius of Jinyang City....... That scene made Yu Hao's heart ache.
