"The head of the Xiao family doesn't have to be polite, in Xia Chen Ning, I came here this time because I have something to discuss with the head of the Xiao family." Chen Ning's tone of voice was very flat.

However, as soon as they heard the words "Chen Ning", the bodies of more than a dozen important people of the Xiao family shook at the same time, and they immediately stared at Chen Ning's young and handsome face with a shocked face, with a look of disbelief in their eyes.

"Dare to ask, but Chen Ning's son of Ouyang Mansion in Tianyong City?" The head of the Xiao family asked in a trembling tone.

For the name Chen Ning, they are like thunder, and they are a well-known figure in the Jason Kingdom. Not only is he a genius who has reached the realm of King Xuan in his twenties, but he also holds the position of the protector of the Jason Kingdom, and his status is even slightly inferior to His Majesty the King of the Jason Kingdom.

"It's down there!" Chen Ning said.

More than a dozen high-ranking members of the Xiao family who held real power changed their complexions in unison, and immediately bowed deeply again, shouting: "I have seen the Lord Protector of the Country!" ”

This time, everyone's voices were a little trembling and excited, mixed with a little apprehension.

The Jason Kingdom Protector suddenly came to the Xiao family, which was indeed a great joy for them, but what made them worried was that the Jason Kingdom Protector came to the Xiao family for no reason, which was a blessing or a curse for their Xiao family.

"Respected Lord of the National Protector, please also enter the main hall of our Xiao family, so that our Xiao family can also fulfill the friendship of the landlord." The head of the Xiao family said respectfully, and he was also a little apprehensive in his heart.

"It's not necessary, the head of the Xiao family, there is something to discuss when I come this time, and after the matter is resolved, I will leave in the next time." Chen Ning said.

"I don't know what the Lord of the Protector of the Country commands, our Xiao family will definitely use the strength of the whole clan to fully cooperate, to be able to serve the Protector of the Country, it is the glory of our Xiao family, and all of our Xiao family should die with all their might!" The head of the Xiao family said with a humble expression, and his tone unabashedly revealed the meaning of stammering.

If in the past, if you want to say who is the strongest in the Jason Kingdom, then in addition to the royal family, there is only Wuji Sect, but after the Four Nations Alliance attacked the Jason Kingdom, this situation has completely changed, and now in the Jason Kingdom, the Ouyang Mansion is dominant, even the royal family and the Wuji Sect are far from being the opponents of Ouyang Mansion.

Not to mention the 500,000 elite army of the Ming Dynasty stationed outside Tianyong City, just the powerhouse of the Xuan King realm hidden in Ouyang Mansion was enough to compare to the comprehensive ability of the Jason Kingdom in its heyday.

Because it is no secret that several Xuan Kings of Ouyang Mansion defeated the ten powerhouses of the Aquila Kingdom in the Jason Kingdom, and the current Aquila Kingdom has long disappeared in the long river of history.

It is no exaggeration to say that today's Ouyang Mansion is already a powerful family above the royal family, even the Wuji Sect with three Xuan Kings is far inferior.

In the Ouyang Mansion, Chen Ning is a pivotal and important person, so when the head of the Xiao family heard that the young man in front of him was the protector of the Jason Kingdom, Chen Ning of the Ouyang Mansion looked a little frightened, but he also knew in his heart that this might be an opportunity for the Xiao family, if he took this opportunity to climb the big tree of the Ouyang Mansion, then the Xiao family would have a worry-free future, looking at the Jason Kingdom, what else was there to be afraid of, so he hurriedly showed goodwill, and said that the Xiao family was very eager to serve the Ouyang Mansion.

Although Chen Ning heard the gesture of the head of the Xiao family, he was unmoved, and said in a flat tone: "Master Xiao, recently someone from your Xiao family went to my brother's hometown to embarrass a woman, I hope that the head of the Xiao family can discipline his subordinates well, I don't want to have a next time, otherwise, don't blame me for being ruthless." ”

Speaking of the back, Chen Ning's tone also became extremely indifferent.

Hearing this, the faces of the head of the Xiao family and more than a dozen high-ranking members of the Xiao family behind him changed drastically, and they became miserable in an instant, and cold sweat flowed on their foreheads.

The head of the Xiao family looked extremely panicked, knelt down on his knees, and said in a frightened tone: "The Lord Protector of the Country is angry, the Lord of the Protector is angry, it is my Xiao family who has no way to discipline and discipline, so I almost made such a big mistake, I, Xiao Yun, will definitely deal with those people severely, and I will definitely give a satisfactory explanation to the Lord of the Protector of the Country, and there will definitely be no next time." ”

"I hope you can do what you say, I won't pursue the past, but there must not be a next time." Chen Ning said coldly.

"There will never be a next time, there will never be a next time!" Xiao Yun replied hurriedly, his heart was extremely panicked, and he also knew that if Chen Ning wanted to do something to their Xiao family, then even if they climbed the big tree of Xuanfeng Gate, it would be useless, even the Wuji Sect, which was stronger than the Xuanfeng Gate, did not dare to offend Ouyang Mansion now, let alone the Xuanfeng Gate, which was weaker than the Wuji Sect.

"Go back and apologize to the people in the village yourself." Chen Ning said in a light tone.

"Yes, yes, we will do it, we will do it." The head of the Xiao family hurriedly said, not daring to disobey in the slightest.

Seeing that the head of the Xiao family was so cooperative, Chen Ning also nodded with satisfaction, then looked at Haotian and asked, "Haotian, are you satisfied with this solution?" ”

"Hey, hey, satisfied, satisfied, Chen Ning, it's still your big face, I didn't expect to settle this matter so easily." Haotian smiled happily, the matter of the Xiao family was solved so effortlessly, which made him feel very happy.

"Now that the matter is settled, then we should go back too!" In an instant, Chen Ning used the power of the wind element to control the wind element with his mind, wrapped the bodies of Guevara and Haotian and slowly rose into the air, disappearing into the distance at the end of the sky in a few breaths.

A group of people from the Xiao family watched Chen Ning and the three of them go away, and it wasn't until Chen Ning and the three disappeared from their sight that all of them let out a long breath, and then stood up straight with a frightened face, and their foreheads were covered with fine beads of sweat.

Xiao Yun, the head of the Xiao family, breathed a long sigh of relief, and then his face suddenly sank, his eyes stared at the dozen or so high-ranking figures of the Xiao family behind him, and shouted: "Check, go check on me immediately, be sure to find out who offended the brother of Chen Ning Gongzi of Ouyang Mansion in the shortest possible time, once it is found out, I will not be spared." ”

"Yes! Head of the house! Everyone responded in unison, their faces became very solemn one by one, and they also knew in their hearts that this time they almost brought big trouble to the Xiao family, and it was a big trouble, but fortunately, people didn't care.

After a short flight, Chen Ning and the three of them quickly returned to the mountains, and then landed in the wooded mountains and walked towards the small mountain village on foot.

As soon as he entered the village, Haotian excitedly told the villagers about the matter that the Xiao family had solved, which made all the villagers very excited, and everyone cast grateful eyes to Chen Ning and Guevara, and thanked them for a long time.

After Chen Ning appeased the villagers, he was dragged into the house by Haotian and chatted happily, and Haotian's mother personally cooked a few plates of good dishes to entertain Chen Ning and the others.

"Chen Ning, I remember that when we were in Jason Academy before, your strength was not very different from mine, why haven't you seen you for a few years, you have become so powerful, do you have any secret to make yourself stronger quickly, come and teach me." Haotian stared at Chen Ning with a wistful expression, in the Xuantian Continent, there was no one who could cultivate who didn't want to become stronger, even Haotian with an honest personality was no exception.

Chen Ning's heart moved, and he smiled and said: "Of course there is a secret, but I just don't know if you are willing to take this road." ”

"What's the secret, tell me quickly, I must become as powerful as you, even the head of the Xiao family has to kneel when he sees you, if I am as powerful as you, then I can let the people in the village live a carefree life for a lifetime, and I still have endless meat to eat every day." Haotian's face was full of excitement.

"The secret is simple, let me tell you." Guevara preemptively said: "Iron Tower, if you want to quickly improve your strength, then the best way is to go to the outside world to experience, with your talent, if you have been staying in a poor mountain village where you don't with birds, it will simply bury you, the outside world is not only wonderful, but also allows you to learn a lot of things, much better than you stay in this poor mountain village." ”

Haotian turned his head around and thought, "Really? But what you said seems to make sense, when I was in Jason Academy before, although I couldn't beat Chen Ning, Chen Ning was not much stronger than me, but since he left Jason Academy to go to the Xuantian Continent, I didn't expect that in the past few years, his strength has become so powerful, can it really be that the Xuantian Continent can quickly increase his strength? ”

"Haotian, Guevara is right, only by wandering in the outside world can you quickly increase your strength, and you can also learn a lot of things and experiences that you will never be able to touch here. It just so happens that I have a mercenary group in my hands, and I plan to develop the strength of the mercenary group in the next two days, and it is now the time when we need manpower, if you want, you might as well join our mercenary group, and in the future, we will all go to the Xuantian Continent together, and strive to develop this mercenary group and become the first mercenary group on the Xuantian Continent. Chen Ning took the opportunity to encourage.

Haotian's eyes lit up, and he said with some joy: "Then can we be together every day?" ”

"Of course!" Chen Ning said with a smile.

"Well, I will follow you in the future, I will go wherever you go." Haotian agreed with excitement on his face.

Successfully pulled Haotian into the Black Panther Mercenary Group, Chen Ning also showed a happy smile on his face, and said: "Haotian, then you go and say goodbye to the people in the village, we will leave tomorrow, go to my house first, there are still a few friends there to introduce to you." ”

Early the next morning, Chen Ning and the three of them all gathered outside the village and were about to leave the village.

Outside the village, all the villagers gathered here, staring at Haotian reluctantly and waving goodbye.

"Brother Haotian, you must come back early!" Qiu Yue stared at the tall and large body of the tower with tears in her eyes, her face full of reluctance.

Looking at Qiuyue, the expression on Haotian's face also became a little complicated, and he waved his hand: "Sister Qiuyue, I will be back soon, when I come back, I will have the ability to protect the people of the entire village, and I will make a lot of money back, I want the whole village to live a happy and happy life, Sister Qiuyue, if you don't dislike me for being a rough person, when I earn money and come back, I... I... I... I'll come back and marry you. The latter sentence, Haotian mustered up the courage to say it, and after finishing speaking, his face had become red, black and red.

Qiu Yue's body trembled slightly, her face showed an excited look, her eyes were full of tears, and she said in an excited tone: "Brother Haotian, Qiu Yue is waiting for you to come back......"

Chen Ning and the three of them left the small mountain village and rushed straight towards Luoer City.

After an hour of unhurried travel, Chen Ning and the three of them finally returned to Tianyong City, and then landed directly in Ouyang Mansion.

"I've seen Chen Ning's son!" A group of guards passing by hurriedly saluted Chen Ning, their faces full of respect and adoration.

Chen Ning waved his hand and said, "You guys continue to patrol!" ”

"Yes!" Several of the guards replied in unison, and then continued their patrol.

"Chen Ning, is this your home? It's so big! Haotian looked around, with a look of amazement.

Chen Ning shook his head slightly and smiled, and said, "Let's go, go to where I live, and I'll introduce you to a few friends." ”

Chen Ning led Haotian towards the palace-like building where he lived, and at the same time recruited a servant, and said, "You go and inform Dugu Feng, Chen Da, Qin Xiao and the three of them, and let them come to me immediately." ”

Chen Ning took Haotian into the palace where he lived, but as soon as he entered the palace, Haotian, who had not seen much of the world, was stunned by the layout inside, and kept looking around, with a look of envy on his face.

"Chen Ning, this is the room you live in, your family has a lot of money." Haotian sighed.

Looking at Haotian, the first time a countryman entered the city, Guevara couldn't help but say: "Big man, you don't need to be envious, when you have enough strength in the future, you can enjoy such treatment wherever you go." ”

Hearing this, Haotian showed a firm gaze in his eyes, and said with determination: "Well, I must work hard to improve my strength!" ”

At this time, Dugufeng, Qin Xiao, and Chen Da walked in from outside at the same time, and as soon as they entered the house, they heard Chen Da's rough voice: "Chen Ning, you are finally back, when are we leaving, I still like the kind of days when I wander around outside, staying here all day, I am about to get sick." ”

Chen Ning smiled and said, "Let's all sit down, and by the way, I will introduce you to a new friend." ”

Everyone sat down one after another, and then Chen Ning introduced Haotian to everyone, and everyone exchanged a few words of greeting, and then gradually quieted down.

Chen Ning pondered for a moment, and then announced: "Now that everyone has arrived, then we will set off early tomorrow morning, everyone will go back and prepare, what daily necessities need to be purchased, all of them will be prepared today." ”

"Leaving tomorrow? Chen Ning, where are we going? Haotian asked suspiciously.

"Xiongnu Kingdom!"

……

After leaving the room where he lived, Chen Ning went to see Ouyang Zhongjun again, told the second elder about his departure, and asked them to go to Lanxian Town to pick up a person named Li Dacheng and take him to Ouyang Mansion to support him.

Subsequently, Chen Ning found the five Xiaotian and informed them of the news that they were leaving, and after Xiaotian and the others learned that Chen Ning was going to develop their own mercenary group, they all knew in their hearts that there was no need for a few of them in Ouyang Mansion here, so they took their leave, planning to leave the Jason Kingdom early the next morning and return to the Ming Dynasty.

And Chen Ning, the parents of Hei Xiaosan, also went to visit, for the relatives of these two black panther brothers, Chen Ning took great care of them, but the matter of Hei Xiaosan made Chen Ning unforgettable, and he wanted to let Hei Xiaosan restore the damaged dantian more than once to make up for the guilt of Hei Xiaosan in his heart, but he never found a feasible way.

Early the next morning, Chen Ning was holding the sleeping little white tiger and stealing Guevara, Haotian, Dugufeng, Qin Xiao, and Chen Da in his arms, all of whom were already concentrated in the compound of Ouyang Mansion.

And because of Chen Ning's special status in the Ouyang Mansion, as soon as he left, all the high-level officials of the Ouyang Mansion came out to see off a few people, and outside the gate of the Ouyang Mansion, several third-order demon beast mounts were already ready, and they were quietly waiting at the gate under the traction of several guards.

Ouyang Xin's mother, Bi Yuntian, took Qin Zixuan's hand and came to Chen Ning, and said, "Chen Ning, with your strength, you can already be on your own outside, because few people can hurt you, it's better to bring Zixuan over with you, this time it's just time to take Zixuan out for a walk." ”

Hearing this, Chen Ning glanced at Qin Zixuan, and saw that Youyue was wearing a set of power clothes today, dressed very casually, quite a bit of chivalrous demeanor, and was standing quietly beside Bi Yuntian with a shy face at the moment. Her dress makes it clear at a glance that she is ready to travel for a long time.

Chen Ning thought about it, and felt in his heart that with his own lineup, he would not encounter any great danger in the Xiongnu Kingdom, and Qin Zixuan was ready, so he simply agreed to this proposal, and said with a smile: "Okay, since Xuan'er wants to go outside to relax, then follow us and set off." ”

Hearing this, Qin Zixuan's pretty face also showed a happy smile, since she was a child, she really rarely saw the outside world.

After Chen Ning said goodbye to everyone in Ouyang Mansion, a group of seven people rode on the demon beast mount at the same time and walked slowly towards the outside of Tianyong City.

After leaving Tianyong City, Chen Ning went to the military camp of the Oriental Divine Sword Legion stationed outside Tianyun City again, met Qin Wuming's three fathers and sons, and then explained some things and rode away on the third-order demon beast mount.

Qin Wuming's three fathers and sons stood outside the barracks and watched Chen Ning and the others go away, until Chen Ning and the others disappeared from their sight, Qin Wucai said: "Dad, now that the affairs of the Jason Kingdom have calmed down, and the Lord Protector has also left, when do you say we will withdraw the army." ”

Hearing this, Qin Wuming smiled and said: "If you want to withdraw the army, it is difficult, difficult, to rush to the Ming Dynasty from here, with the speed of the army, I am afraid it will take at least a year just to travel, although Daewoo has a teleportation array, but the loss of spirit stones is really amazing." ”

"Are we going to keep the army here?" Qin Wujian said.

Qin Wuming nodded slightly, and said: "Yes, when His Majesty the Emperor decided to send an army of 500,000 to the Jason Kingdom, he had no intention of taking back this army, because the national strength of the Jason Kingdom is too weak, and the Protector of the Kingdom of Jason has an extraordinary relationship with the royal family, and neither of them can be offended, Your Majesty does this, on the one hand, to support the Jason Kingdom, and on the other hand, it can be regarded as doing something for the Protector of the Country, with the talent of the Protector of the Country, he will definitely advance to the Xuanzun realm in the future, If you want to win over such a strong person, you can't do it without investing some capital. ”

"I see, Daddy, are the three of us going to stay here all the time?" Qin Wujian asked.

Qin Wuming smiled and said: "Even if you stay here all the time, it's not a good thing, the strong people of Xuanzun are all high-ranking existences, and in their eyes, we, the Xuanwang, are like ants, they will not put us in their eyes at all, now the national protector has not broken through to the realm of Xuanzun, this is also a rare opportunity for us, if we cultivate a good relationship with him now, when he breaks through to the realm of Xuanzun in the future, we can also ask the national protector to help solve any troubles, And once there is the support of the national protector behind him, in the army, I don't dare to be too presumptuous. ”

"I understand, it seems that all this is arranged by His Majesty the Emperor, this is indeed an opportunity for us, if the Protector of the National Division breaks through to the realm of Xuanzun, and is willing to stand behind us to support us, then Daddy will even be promoted to the generalissimo who controls the total strength of the country in the future." Qin Wuming said with a look of surprise.

Qin Wuming nodded with a smile and said: "This is the field where fat water does not flow to outsiders, your imperial uncle is a wise emperor, all the power that can be controlled, must be firmly grasped in his hands, even if he can't control it, he must go all out to win it over." ”

……

On the cold and long winding official road, seven demon beast mounts walked side by side, running unhurriedly, trampling a shallow layer of dust along the way.

"Brother Chen Ning, how long will it take for us to reach the Xiongnu Kingdom in such a hurry." Qin Zixuan, who was running in the middle, looked at Chen Ning and asked.

Chen Ning thought for a moment and said, "At this speed, we should be able to reach the Xiongnu Kingdom in two days, but we are not in a hurry for such a little time." ”

A group of people set off towards the Xiongnu Kingdom with a smile all the way, thinking that they were about to meet the mercenary group he had led, Chen Ning's thoughts seemed to have flown to Taoliu City in the Xiongnu Kingdom.

After a few years, I don't know what scale the Black Panther mercenary group has developed to now.
