Chapter 272: Passing the Level

After entering the town, Chen Heng found that it was a bit depressed, there were not many shops, and there were not many passers-by, most of the townspeople were hiding in their own homes, either doing some odd and small handicrafts, or enjoying life comfortably.

From Zhang Ruohan's introduction, Chen Heng learned that there is a field not far from the outside of the town, and the life in the town is completely self-sufficient, there is no strife here, there is no intrigue, and everyone has a smile on their faces. Compared to the outside world, it is actually a paradise.

"This place is really good, if every town can be like this in the future, no longer threatened by brute beasts, and every civilian can live a peaceful life, it will be great. ”

Chen Heng sighed slightly, the Mengjia town where he was born was basically oppressed.

Cultivators have the strength to confront brute beasts, but civilians don't, so civilians can only rely on those cultivators if they want to survive, and they can only become vassals and targets of oppression.

Ordinary civilians pay ten times the labor force, and they may not be able to get a harvest, otherwise, Chen Heng would not have lived so embarrassed back then.

It is precisely because he was born from a civilian that Chen Heng has always been very keen on improving the lives of civilians, but this kind of thing has been formed for countless years, and he can't change it by his own strength.

Around, occasionally walking by some passers-by, occasionally seeing an old woman selling herbal tea, an old man selling dog meat, a firewood man carrying a burden, and a team to greet relatives......

Everyone doesn't seem to have any troubles, everyone is so happy, Chen Heng's eyes are a little confused unconsciously, if he could have been born in this kind of place back then, everything might not be like this.

It is likely that his parents will not leave him, and his sister, perhaps, will still be with him.

"Hmm, that's not right!"

Chen Heng suddenly became alert, grabbed Zhang Ruohan, and stopped.

Zhang Ruohan turned his head, looked at Chen Heng with some confusion, and asked, "Brother Chen, what's wrong?"

Chen Heng looked at the people around him, his eyes flashed with coldness, and he said coldly: "Now that it is winter, have you ever seen a person selling herbal tea in winter? Now that it is past noon, have you ever seen a person selling dog meat at this hour......?"

Every time Chen Heng said a word, Zhang Ruohan's face was gloomy, obviously he also thought of something, and his cold breath continued to spread.

"Do it!"

At this moment, perhaps sensing that Chen Heng had seen that something was wrong, the civilians around him suddenly ripped the clothes on their bodies, and they changed their appearance one by one.

These people, dressed in black, did not have the harmonious smile they had at the beginning, and some of them just had a cold and murderous aura.

Their aura is far from being comparable to those horse thieves just now, and their strength is also much stronger, at least, there are not a few who have the acquired Great Perfection, and there are also a few half-step innates.

In just an instant, there were already twenty or thirty people around Chen Heng and the others, and each of them had the strength to defeat and kill Zhang Ruohan.

Seeing these people, even if Zhang Ruohan didn't say it, Chen Heng knew that they were all from the Zhang family.

They didn't give Chen Heng and the others much time to react, and after they appeared, they immediately rushed up, facing a child like Zhang Ruohan, but they didn't spare their hands as if they were facing a big enemy, obviously not wanting to leave any chance for Zhang Ruohan.

It's a pity that the only thing they misestimated was that there was a Chen Heng next to Zhang Ruohan.

Not to mention that none of these people really broke through the innate nature, even if there were really innate cultivators, as long as they were not masters like the Jindan Realm, they would not pose any threat to Chen Heng.

After all, no matter how powerful the Zhang family is, it can't reach the level of the sect, and with Chen Heng's strength, the Jindan realm can completely sweep a large area.

Because he still needed to take care of Zhang Ruohan, Chen Heng also didn't keep his hand, and the four flying swords flew together, forming a large sword net to protect Zhang Ruohan, while he himself held the True Martial Jade Sword in his hand, bursting out with extremely strong strength.

Originally, these people were all violent, like tigers in the mountains, giving people the feeling that as soon as they made a move, Chen Heng and the others would be crushed into meat foam.

But when they actually collided, the whole situation was turned upside down.

Tigers, no longer these assassins, but like a flock of sheep, they took the initiative to run to the tigers.

This time, Chen Heng didn't intend to waste any lips and tongues at all, the other party's purpose was obvious, so at the beginning, Chen Heng was a dead hand, the sword shadow flew over, ignoring the other party's screaming and wailing all over the ground, like harvesting spiritual rice, quickly collecting their lives.

Zhang Ruohan stood there with a gloomy face, not caring about the surrounding situation, and didn't even look at it.

Moments later, however, all the sound died abruptly, leaving only corpses and blood on the ground.

"Why!!"

As soon as Chen Heng put away his sword, he heard Zhang Ruohan roaring angrily at the sky.

What happened today was definitely a big blow to Zhang Ruohan, but Chen Heng didn't understand, in fact, from Mangcang Mountain, Uncle Zhang began to send people to chase and kill, Zhang Ruohan should have thought of this situation.

At this time, in the face of assassination, although it was very strange that Uncle Zhang could know in advance about his return, Zhang Ruohan would not be so abnormal.

"Why, I just want to go home and see!"

Zhang Ruohan's breath was uncertain, and he looked extremely excited.

was attacked one after another, in fact, Chen Heng was also angry, and he had a very bad impression of Zhang Ruohan's uncle, and secretly decided in his heart that this time, he would have to seek some justice for Zhang Ruohan.

"I don't fight for anything anymore, why do I have to kill them all!"

Zhang Ruohan roared, his face was already full of tears unconsciously.

But hearing this, Chen Heng's heart moved slightly, it seemed that Zhang Ruohan still had feelings for the uncle who had assassinated him several times.

Chen Heng patted Zhang Ruohan on the shoulder and asked, "He treats you like this, do you still remember the old feelings?" Moreover, what do you mean by 'indisputable'?"

Zhang Ruohan sobbed for a while, then suddenly calmed down again, wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes, and said to Chen Heng: "Before I went down the mountain, I actually sent a letter home, and I told my uncle in the letter that I would give up all the status of the Zhang family and not compete with him." This time I just want to go home and pick up some people. ”

Hearing this, Chen Heng suddenly realized, no wonder his uncle was able to learn the news of Zhang Ruohan's return in advance, and laid an ambush in advance.

It's just that although Zhang Ruohan said that he was willing to give up, how could someone like his uncle believe it?

What's more, no matter what, Zhang Ruohan is a descendant, once he goes back, maybe the clansmen who support orthodoxy will directly push Zhang Ruohan out to resist, just in case, it is actually reasonable that Zhang Ruohan's uncle will do this.

In the final analysis, Zhang Ruohan is too naΓ―ve.

It's just that faintly, Chen Heng always feels that something is wrong, as if there is something inside that he doesn't know.

"Don't worry, I'll help you!"

Chen Heng touched Zhang Ruohan's head, no matter how things will develop, one thing is for sure, Chen Heng will definitely protect Zhang Ruohan.

Zhang Ruohan had completely recovered from the gaffe just now, his face had returned to his usual flatness, and he said to Chen Heng: "Brother Chen, it seems that we can't stay here longer, let's go directly to Zhangjiajie." ”

Chen Heng also had the same idea, so he nodded, and together with Zhang Ruohan, led the golden horse and walked back out of the town.

The town was not big, and soon they returned to the city gate, however, before they approached the city gate, Chen Heng's eyes suddenly froze.

Feeling the change in Chen Heng's breath, Zhang Ruohan raised his head, just when he arrived at home, an old man wearing gray clothes and trousers and dressed as a housekeeper stood at the door and blocked their way.

"This man is not simple, even if I try my best, I can't beat him in a short time. ”

Feeling the breath, Chen Heng immediately became solemn, and whispered to Zhang Ruohan beside him: "If you fight for a while, you stay away a little bit, so as not to be affected." ”

However, Chen Heng's words, Zhang Ruohan suddenly heard them, stepped forward, and his tone was a little indifferent: "Butler Bai, it's really you!"

Chen Heng's heart moved, and he understood that the old man in front of him, who was about fifty years old, should not be low in the Zhang family, and listening to Zhang Ruohan's meaning, he should be the housekeeper of the Zhang family.

Butler Bai's eyes stayed on Zhang Ruohan from beginning to end, I don't know if he didn't notice Chen Heng's strength, or if he had full confidence in himself, he just sighed slightly and said to Zhang Ruohan: "Young master, you better leave." As long as you promise, you will no longer be one step closer to the Zhang family in this life, and the old slave will fight to go back and be scolded by the head of the family, and let you return. ”

Looking at the appearance of this housekeeper, it seems that he can't bear to do anything with Zhang Ruohan.

It's just that thinking of the three batches of attacks just now, Chen Heng knows that Butler Bai is not so kind as he seems on the surface, maybe he just wants to paralyze them and wait for them to be careless before sneaking attack, so Chen Heng is very vigilant in his heart.

"Butler Bai, I have made it very clear in my letter that I have never thought about fighting for anything, this time I just came back to take a look. Uncle wants to be the head of the family, so let him be it, but why, don't I even have the qualifications to become a descendant of the Zhang family?"

Listening to Zhang Ruohan's hysterical roar, Butler Bai was silent.

Chen Heng stepped forward, patted Zhang Ruohan on the shoulder, and said in a deep voice: "It's not that you are not qualified, but that some people are not qualified." If Zhang Shen will know that there are descendants like you, he will definitely be very pleased. ”

Zhang Ruohan was noncommittal about this, and the white housekeeper seemed to have just discovered Chen Heng at this time, raised his eyebrows, and asked, "Who is Your Excellency?" I can feel that your strength is very strong, presumably those people before should have been killed by you, right?"

The Zhang family belongs to the descendants of Zhang Shenjiang, although they are proud of this matter, but because the power is not as good as before, they did not deliberately publicize it, Chen Heng knew about it, and the white housekeeper was quite surprised.

Chen Heng said coldly: "Yes, to tell you honestly, with your shrimp soldiers and crabs, you can't pose a threat to me." Although Xiao Han doesn't want to deal with you, as a brother, I have to get justice for him. ”

Chen Heng's words made Zhang Ruohan's eyes, who were originally still in a state of anger, fluctuate slightly, and his breath gradually calmed down.

Butler Bai didn't react much, still with a calm and indifferent expression, and said lightly: "I know that your strength is not weak, but the strength of the Zhang family is not something you can shake." I'll say it one last time, leave immediately, I can act as if I didn't see it, or die!"

As soon as the word "death" came out, the breath of the white butler suddenly burst out, and the powerful momentum swept away all the dust around him, and then rushed straight to Chen Heng.

As soon as his aura burst out, Chen Heng's face became more solemn, this white butler had already reached the late stage of the Chenggang Realm, and he was not far from the Jindan Realm, if he came from the sect, Chen Heng was afraid that he would not have a chance at all.

Even if it is a half-step sect, with Chen Heng's cultivation in the early stage of the Chenggang realm, it is enough to fight with it.

"I'll say it again, if I don't help Xiao Han get justice, it's impossible for me to leave!"

Although Chen Heng was secretly vigilant in his heart, he was not weaker than the other party in terms of momentum, and the momentum also exploded, colliding with the other party, the invisible air wave instantly spread, and even the buildings not far away were also affected, and the roof made of thatch was immediately lifted away.

"Then it's up to you to see if you have the ability!"

The white butler let out a low snort, a long sword in his hand was unsheathed, and he followed the sword, stabbing straight towards Chen Heng.
