Exiting the cave, Xu Yan cleaned up the footprints at the entrance of the cave, so as not to be discovered by others passing by, sorted out the loot harvested by this line, and returned along the way. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

Arriving at the exit of Fengming Mountain, Xu Yan once again sensed two lines of sight following, but he pretended not to return as if nothing had happened, and went straight into the city to return home.

As soon as Xu Yan stepped into the courtyard gate, Xiao Dezi greeted him and said with a worried expression: "Son, you are back, Manager Zhen has been waiting for you for a long time, hurry up and go in to see him." ”

"Manager Zhen?" Xu Yan didn't react at once, he didn't know what the details of Manager Zhen in Xiao Dezi's mouth were, and asked, "What is he looking for me?"

Xiao Dezi had a bitter face and replied: "Chief Steward Zhen is the position of the great eunuch in the Jingshi Room, and he is also the consul of the Great Xia Kingdom, how does the little one know what is the matter with him looking for the son?"

Xu Yan nodded, Chief Manager Zhen turned out to be an official sent to the Great Xia Kingdom by the Wu State, and his status was not low, but he didn't know what his attitude was towards him.

"You go and wait first, and I'll change my clothes and go over. Xu Yan threw a large bag of game to his subordinates, asked the kitchen to cook a few tables of good dishes, and went back to the room to clean up.

In the living room, a fifty-year-old man wearing a bowled black green gauze hat and silver hair sat in front of the table with a grim face.

"It's not good. Xu Yan's heart was half cold, looking at the other party's posture, I am afraid it will not be good to find himself.

Manager Zhen is not young, but his face is ruddy and his skin is bright, his straight silver hair is neatly draped behind him, and his cold expression is like a piece of ice that will never melt.

Xu Yan's tone was neither humble nor arrogant, and after sitting down opposite Manager Zhen, he said, "I don't know what is important, let Manager Zhen come in person?"

"I heard that the Seventh Prince, your martial arts have risen a lot recently, so I came to see if it was true or not. Manager Zhen's voice was thin and high, if it wasn't face-to-face, Xu Yan would have thought it was the voice of an old woman.

Xu Yan frowned and didn't speak, and Manager Zhen continued: "I underestimated you, I thought that you broke the jar and fell to the end, and you had nothing to do all day long, but I didn't expect to have the courage to accept other people's war letters." ”

Chen Long and Xu Yan fought, and they were preached by Murong Yan and others, and it was not surprising that Manager Zhen knew about it.

"The Great Xia Kingdom has been bullied to the door, of course I, as a prince, can't retreat, and I can't lose the face of the people of the Wu Kingdom. Xu Yan's tone sank, and his answer was watertight.

"Really?" Manager Zhen smiled coldly, "Let us see how much confidence you have to say such things." ”

As soon as the words fell, Manager Zhen grabbed Xu Yan's wrist, so fast that he didn't have a chance to react.

"In the early days of the Inner Rest Realm, no wonder you are full of confidence, you are really young and fearless. Manager Zhen's right hand was like a cold iron claw, firmly clasping Xu Yan's wrist, no matter how he resisted.

Xu Yan was shocked in his heart, and said secretly: "What kind of cultivation does this old monster do, I have no power to fight back in front of him." ”

"When I asked you to come to the Great Xia Kingdom as a proton, I just took a fancy to your mediocre qualifications and didn't make any trouble. It's a pity that I still looked away. Manager Zhen's eyes narrowed, flashing a chilling cold light.

Xu Yan only felt a flower in front of him, and he couldn't see how Manager Zhen made a move at all, and several important acupuncture points on his chest were blocked by a cold breath.

After ordering Xu Yan's acupuncture points, Manager Zhen let go of his hand and said, "From now on, you'd better stay in the mansion honestly, and you can't walk around without my permission." ”

"Are you the queen's person?" Xu Yan asked, clutching his aching chest and taking a few breaths.

Except for the queen's lineage, Xu Yan really couldn't imagine why Mr. Zhen suddenly made a move, several acupuncture points in the point were solidified by the cold qi, and the speed of the internal breath running to these places slowed down significantly, and the severe pain was extremely cold sweat.

"Queen, she's not worthy to command me. ”

Manager Zhen shook his head, pointed at Xu Yan's chest, and said, "From now on, the strength you can use is less than half, so you have to stay in the mansion and don't mess around." As long as you don't go out, you don't have to worry about your safety. ”

"What the hell do you mean, why did you do this to me?" Xu Yan was resentful, but listening to the meaning of this old eunuch, he should not have to worry about his life for the time being.

Moreover, it seems that Chief Manager Zhen doesn't care about the queen, so in this way, isn't he directly obeying the orders of Emperor Wuguo?

"It's not your turn to do anything. Anyway, you listen to me, there are less than five months left before your proton period expires, and during this period, you are honest, keep a low profile and don't cause trouble. If you ruin my big thing, even if you are the prince, you will not escape death. ”

Manager Zhen stood up, no longer glanced at Xu Yan, left a few words and left with his hands behind his back.

Looking at the back of Manager Zhen leaving, Xu Yan clenched his fists, but no matter how he exercised his pranayama, his internal strength could not dispel the cold qi of several acupuncture points on his chest at all.

"Several key points have been blocked, not only has most of my strength been reduced, but my usual cultivation has also been greatly affected. ”

Xu Yan frowned, if this state lasted for four or five months, he would waste a lot of time in vain, not to mention impacting the realm of the unity of heaven and man, even the innate realm would not be possible.

If he can't reach the innate realm within three years, Xu Yan will only have a dead end.

"I can't go on like this, I must think of a way!"

Xu Yan hated Manager Zhen, how could such an old eunuch with a strange temperament suddenly appear, and he didn't give himself a chance to resist at all.

After thinking silently for a long time, Xu Yan called Xiao Dezi over and carefully interrogated the details of Manager Zhen.

"Manager Zhen has explained, the son can't go out at will, but don't be embarrassed!" Xiao Dezi waved his hand and shouted as soon as he entered the door, obviously it was Manager Zhen who specially explained when he left.

Xu Yan rolled his eyes, motioned for Xiao Dezi to sit down and speak, and asked him to tell all the information about Manager Zhen.

Xiao Dezi doesn't know much information, as far as he knows, Manager Zhen's status in the Wuguo Palace is very transcendent, even the queen has to give him some face, usually not much time in the palace, but often walks around outside the palace.

"What realm is he cultivating?" Xu Yan asked.

Xiao Dezi shook his head and replied, "I don't know, Manager Zhen has never been revealed in front of outsiders. ”

"By the way, I've heard someone talk about a rumor, but I don't know if it's true or not. Xiao Dezi suddenly thought of something, Xu Yan motioned for him to just say.

Once, a general in the late stage of the Houtian Realm spoke against Chief Manager Zhen, and his legs were broken by Chief Manager Zhen on the spot.

Xu Yan took a cold breath, if he could beat the late stage of the acquired realm without the power to fight back, then Manager Zhen must be in the innate realm, which is similar to his own speculation.

Unable to ask anything more, Xu Yan waved his hand to let Xiao Dezi retreat, sighed heavily, and said to himself with a bitter brow: "Could it really be like this?"

His martial arts cultivation has just stepped on the right track, but he was suddenly poisoned by this old eunuch, if he can't dispel the cold qi on the acupuncture points on his chest, no matter how hard he practices, Xu Yan's cultivation will not be able to advance an inch.

If you want to relieve the cold, unless you are also a master of the Innate Realm, but Xu Yan is isolated in the Great Xia Kingdom, who can help him tide over the difficulties?

Why did Manager Zhen do this, Xu Yan couldn't guess. But judging from his usual low-key style, it should be something secretly planned, so important that it is not allowed to be affected by the slightest other unexpected factor.

Xu Yan looked down at his hands, his eyes flashed, and he said fiercely: "In that case, I won't let you get what you want." I'm in charge of my business!"
