Chapter 6: Non-Conformity
Walk through Wu'an Long Street, and at the end is Wu'an Palace.
Looking at the deep palace gate, Zhang Fan suddenly felt a little inexplicably empty.
In his previous life, he was just a little person struggling on the edge of survival, pretending to be a thug and a hooligan and pretending to be a dead corpse, just for a boxed lunch that could fill his stomach.
When he couldn't sleep in the dead of night, he also imagined that if Lao Tzu became popular in the future, he would definitely be so beautiful.
Who knows, now that he is about to embark on a career by accident, he can be regarded as a soaring talent, but there is a feeling of unsteadiness in his heart.
What's more, he doesn't know anything about this world, but he has to fight with the people of this world.
"Dude, don't worry!"
Zhang Fan took a deep breath and secretly comforted himself, "Lao Tzu has watched so many palace fighting dramas, and he has a system god by his side, do you still need to be afraid of a few old men in him?"
As soon as I thought of this, my courage suddenly became much stronger.
was about to follow Long Zhan and his party into the palace, when suddenly, a hearty laugh came from behind him.
"Second brother!"
Zhang Fan was slightly stunned and turned his head to look.
In the corner of the palace wall, a purple-robed young man walked out leisurely, with a smile like a warm spring breeze on his slightly immature face.
Behind him, he followed an old man in a black robe unhurriedly, but seeing that his body exuded an indifferent temperament that no one could approach, he knew at a glance that he was not a character to be messed with.
Does this man call me my second brother, is it my brother?
If so, how old is he?
What should I call him?
A series of questions, like twine, entangled in Zhang Fan's heart.
He is most afraid of running into Ji Ba's aunts and sisters-in-law, relatives and friends, especially those who like to catch up when they have nothing to do.
At this time, it is undoubtedly the best choice to say too much and be a dumb person.
Zhang Fan hummed and nodded.
Just as he wanted to increase his eyesight attribute and check the young man's information, Long Zhan and the others bowed to the young man.
"I've seen the third son!"
It turned out that this young man was Ji Ba's third brother, his name was Ji Dan, he was talented, he had been worshipping under the Heavenly Spirit Sect since he was a child, and he became the disciple of Ye Ren, the sect leader of the Heavenly Spirit Sect.
Although he is young, he is already a third-level cultivator in the Qi Refining Realm.
This information is naturally seen by Zhang Fan through the "vision attribute".
Ji Dan immediately smiled slightly, his gaze swept over, and finally fell on Long Zhan's body, and said with a smile: "Long Zhan, are you still messing with my second brother now?"
Listening to his tone, the implication seems to be saying, there is no future in following my second brother, it is better to follow me, I guarantee that you will eat and drink spicy food in the future.
With these words, Zhang Fan immediately understood that this seemingly harmless boy was actually secretly competing with him.
And Long Zhan's previous so-called "late will change" may be worried about his brothers seizing power.
Long Zhan stood behind Zhang Fan and said without humility or arrogance: "Didn't the third prince cultivate in the Heavenly Spirit Sect?
"The eldest brother died tragically in the imperial capital, I heard the news, so I immediately returned to the city with the sword!"
Ji Dan's acting skills are obviously not as brilliant as Zhang Fan. So when it comes to "the tragic death of the eldest brother in the imperial capital", there is no sad expression on his face.
This made everyone a little dissatisfied.
The art of the imperial sword, for ordinary monks, is the supreme supernatural power, but in the Heavenly Spirit Sect, it is nothing, as long as the disciples in the sect can reach the Qi refining realm, they can be taught.
Long Zhan clearly remembered that when Ji came back at the beginning of the year, he was only in the body forging realm, but he didn't expect that in just a few months, he had already reached the qi refining realm.
"Congratulations to the third prince for cultivating to the next level!"
Dragon Battle Road.
"It's still a big gap with you!" Ji Dan said humbly, "However, it's not enough to be compared to the top, but it's more than enough to be compared to the bottom, isn't it, second brother?"
The conversation changed sharply, aimed at Zhang Fan.
Zhang Fan smiled, "Hehe!"
As we all know, the cultivation talent of the second son, Ji Ba, was originally not weaker than Ji Jin or Ji Dan, but he was lazy by nature, couldn't bear boredom, and couldn't endure hardships, so he stagnated in the quenching bone realm for many years, and was even left far behind by the talented dragon war.
Ji Dan looked at Zhang Fan, his eyebrows frowned slightly, and a look of annoyance flashed between his eyebrows.
From the moment the two met just now, Zhang Fan looked irrational and cold, and Ji Dan's feigned enthusiasm was more like a hot face on a cold ass.
"Second brother, you seem to be very unimpressed, don't you?"
The smile on Ji Dan's face had become a little reluctant.
"Hmm!"
Zhang Fan nodded.
He actually admitted it bluntly.
Not only Ji Dan, but even Long Zhan was stunned, looking at Zhang Fan with some strange eyes.
Second son, second son, how much ability do you have, don't you have a little bit of force in your heart?!
You must know that Ji Dan is a disciple of Ye Ren, the sect leader of the Heavenly Spirit Sect, although he is young, but under Ye Ren's training, coupled with Ji Dan's own cultivation talent, as well as the background of the Heavenly Spirit Sect, Ji Dan's cultivation strength has been greatly improved.
And Ji Dan's words just now were deliberately aimed at Zhang Fan, and he clearly wanted to provoke, so that Zhang Fan would act angrily, and he would be able to take this opportunity to prove to everyone that between him and Zhang Fan, who is more qualified to take charge of Wu'an County.
"The second brother is quick to talk, which makes my brother feel deeply ashamed! Since this is the case, then I won't hide it! I came back from the Heavenly Spirit Sect this time just to take charge of Wu'an County, rescue my father, and avenge my eldest brother, hoping that the second brother can be fulfilled!"
As he spoke, Ji Dan bowed deeply to Zhang Fan.
"Third son, you seem to be a little out of order!"
Long Zhan said suddenly.
"What's not in order?"
Ji Dan seemed to have known that someone would say this, raised his head, glanced at Long Zhan, and asked lightly.
When he came back this time, his master Ye Ren had expected that it would not be smooth sailing, so he would send Nie Yun, the deacon elder of the Heavenly Spirit Sect, to accompany him.
Nie Yunnai is a powerhouse at the peak of the Ning Dan Realm, and he also represents the Heavenly Spirit Sect, and this trip is almost foolproof.
Therefore, Ji Dan has such confidence and goes toe-for-tat with the dragon war.
"There are grandchildren, there are no grandchildren, the elders and young are orderly, this is the ancestral system!" Long Zhan was even more fearless, and argued with reason, "The Marquis of Wu'an was detained, the eldest prince died tragically, following the ancestral system, the second prince Ji Ba should be in charge of Wu'an County!"
"Follow the ancestral system?" Ji Dan sneered, "If my father blindly follows the ancestral system, he will have the foundation of the forty-two cities of my Wu'an County!
Long Zhan choked for a moment.
He is not good at arguing with others, and Ji Dan's words are Ye Ren's hard thinking of everyone's thoughts, repeated deductions, and passed on to Ji Dan, which can be said to be impossible to refute.
Zhang Fan, who had been standing next to him silently, suddenly opened his mouth and asked, "Ji Dan, what is the meaning of the capable living in it?"
"To rule the country, only the virtuous can do it, and as for those wastes who have neither strength nor merit, it is better to have self-knowledge, where it is cool and where it is ......"
Before Ji Dan's words were finished, he suddenly felt a flower in front of him.
Immediately afterwards, a fierce force rushed to the face, sending Ji Danzhen flying out and falling fiercely on the ground several feet away.
Zhang Fan smiled faintly and said, "Is this your so-called capable person?"
His blow was as fast as thunder, although his strength was not enough to hit Ji Dan hard, but everyone at the scene was shocked.
Including Nie Yun, his chest was even more scolding, "What kind of body is this? It's so fast! I didn't even see it clearly!"
At this time, Ji Dan jumped up from the ground, staring at Zhang Fan with a venomous face, and a fierce light like a poisonous snake appeared in his eyes.
"You—How dare you attack me?"
Ji Dan gritted his teeth and said.
He didn't expect that Zhang Fan's speed was so fast that he didn't have time to react at all.
However, Ji Dan believed that the reason why Zhang Fan succeeded just now was because he was defenseless, otherwise, no matter how fast Zhang Fan's speed was, it would be impossible to get within three feet of him.
What's more important is that with Zhang Fan's strength in quenching the bone realm, he can't hurt half of his hair.
Rao is like this, Ji Dan has been completely angered by Zhang Fan, and his eyes are looking at Zhang Fan with some solemnity.
The corners of his mouth were a little hideous, and Ji Dan said gloomily: "Second brother, you forced me to make a move!"
With his words, his arms vibrated slightly, and the Yuan Qi in his body was like a dragon trapped in the abyss suddenly breaking free of its restraints and roaring out.
"The third layer of the Qi Refining Realm?"
Long Zhan couldn't help but change his face, "Second son, be careful!"
He knew very well in his heart that with the strength of the second son, Ji Ba, but the seventh layer of the Quenching Bone Realm, Ji Dan only needed one finger to hang him.
What's more, at this time, Ji Dan has lost his mind, and once he makes a move, he will definitely not care about any brotherhood.
However, Long Zhan just wanted to stand up, but was held down by Zhang Fan.
"Dragon War, stand down!"
Zhang Fan drank in a deep voice.
"Second son!"
The dragon is in a hurry.
Zhang Fan clenched his fists and made a noise, "You have to understand, there are some battles that I have to fight in person!"
Looking at Zhang Fan's side face full of perseverance and determination, Long Zhan was stunned for a moment.
In his memory, the second son, Ji Ba, is a gentleman who can only enjoy comfort and pleasure, bullying others and being cowardly.
Unexpectedly, at this time of crisis, the second son suddenly seemed to be a different person.
Don't...... The second son was really deliberately clumsy before, and he didn't want to compete for power with the eldest son?
recalled the scene where Zhang Fan knelt down in public to repent before, and his true feelings were revealed, and Long Zhan became more and more convinced of such thoughts.
It turns out that the second son is so affectionate and righteous, and for so many years, we have all misunderstood him!
Looking at Zhang Fan's long and thin back, as if he was much taller, a layer of hazy tears suddenly welled up in Long Zhan's eyes.
"Second Son......"
