The night is lonely, the lights in Qingyan City are bright, the rain is getting heavier and heavier, and the sound of the rain is very noisy in the city.

Qianyu stood at the gate of the city, his clothes and pants were soaked by the rain, looking at the familiar streets and houses in the city, his heart was full of emotion.

Two years have passed, time has passed, Qingyan City has not changed much, and he is no longer the same person he was back then. Suddenly I had a lot of thoughts, I just wanted to have a drink and drown my sorrows with wine, but I was embarrassed to find that the "happy" wine had been drunk by myself, and I could only find a shop in the city where I could drink.

Due to the heavy rain, there are few pedestrians passing by the street, and most of the vendors have closed their stalls, but there is still a restaurant open around the corner of the street.

"Boss, do you have any good wine?"

Qianyu, who was wet all over, entered the restaurant, shook off the rain on his hair and clothes, and found a seat in the corner to sit down, the owner of the restaurant was an old man with gray hair and a wrinkled face. The old man came over with a smile: "Yes, do you want anything else from the guest officer?"

"No, just two large bowls of wine. Qianyu deliberately lowered his voice and said.

His identity is special, so naturally he can't reveal his identity. At this time, he had long fluffy hair, a beard, and a slight wrinkle on his face, which did not look like a sixteen-year-old boy at all, and even if he did not disguise himself, I am afraid that it would be difficult for anyone to recognize him. However, it is always not wrong to be careful to be careful.

"Boss, two jars of wine, a plate of roast animal meat, and two bowls of silver snake soup. Suddenly, a hoarse voice sounded behind Qianyu, Qianyu turned his head slightly, and immediately stunned after a glance.

This person is about fifty years old, dressed in a gray python robe, with a fierce appearance and a pair of eagle eyes that are extremely sharp, making people dare not look at him.

"Qianyin?!" subconsciously said this person's name in his heart, Qianyu could not keep calm, two years ago, it was Qianyin and the people of the Qian family who forced Qianye to expel him from the Qianjia family and send him to the Death Soul Abyss to fend for himself!

Qianyu returned to Qingyan City this time, not only to go back to Qian's house to visit Qianye, but also for an important reason - to find Qianyin for revenge!

As if sensing Qianyu's hostility, Qianyin's gaze swept like a knife to Qianyu who was drinking in the corner, and Qianyu did not avoid it and looked at Qianyin.

"Something?" Qianyu said coldly.

Qianyin replied with a smile: "Hehe, it's nothing. The old man just felt that the little brother was somewhat similar to someone I knew before. ”

"There are many strange things in the world, there are more similar people, and the predecessors are old, so they should be dazzled. Qianyu had a cold attitude.

Qianyin's complexion changed slightly, and he was about to respond to Qianyu, when suddenly, a black-robed man appeared.

The black-robed man was shrouded in a black robe, revealing only a pair of eyes, which looked quite mysterious.

"How did you choose to meet here?" the black-robed man's voice was very deep and sonorous.

Qianyin smiled and said, "It's okay, come on, come on, sit down and drink two glasses first." ”

After the black-robed man sat down, Qianyin took the initiative to pour him wine, and said casually: "Hehe, that old guy is dying, it's time for you to start preparing." ”

"The stakes are high, and we must make sure that nothing goes wrong and that we don't rush it. The black-robed man said, picked up his wine glass, and glanced at Qianyu, who was drinking in the corner, with a strange look in his eyes.

"This son and I have never met, why does it make me feel so familiar?" the black-robed man was suspicious, but he didn't say it explicitly.

Noticing the look of the black-robed man, Qianyin leaned into the black-robed man's ear and whispered, "Do you think that person has a familiar aura?"

"Hmm. The black-robed man bowed his head and said in a deep voice: "It seems to be somewhat similar to that kid...... However, if the boy was still alive, he would be sixteen years old at most, and he would not be as old as him. ”

"Hmph, that kid has entered the abyss of death, coupled with the "death knot" in his body, it is nonsense to want to survive. Speaking of this person, Qianyin's tone immediately became gloomy.

The "kid" in their mouths is naturally Qianyu. Although they spoke quietly, it could not escape Qianyu's ears, he knew that they were discussing him, but he did not make any moves, and calmly tasted the wine slowly in the corner.

"It's a bit of a pity, that kid is very talented, and if he is given enough time and resources, he will definitely be able to achieve something in the future. The black-robed man said with some regret.

Qianyin sneered and didn't speak, the black-robed man saw that Qianyin's face was ugly, so he stopped mentioning the matter, and turned to chatting, Qianyu was bored when he listened, and after drinking two large bowls of wine, he left the wine money and left alone.

In order to avoid arousing the suspicion of Qianyin and the black-robed people, he did not go straight to Qianjia, but deliberately went in the opposite direction, and after entering a no-man's alley, he immediately changed into clean clothes, held an oil-paper umbrella, and slowly approached the location of Qianjia.

The heavy rain gradually stopped, Qianyu appeared in front of the gate of the thousand family, the two stone lions at the door were full of spirit, domineering leakage, on both sides of the vermilion gate, the two guards guarding the door were actually napping, which made him a little surprised, how could the guards of the thousand family be so lax?

With doubts, Qianyu did not enter through the gate, but chose a remote location to climb over the wall.

Qianjia occupies a vast area, the internal houses are numerous, scattered, the corridors are all over, the rockeries are surrounded, the decoration is exquisite, the scenery is beautiful, however, there are not a few maids and minions in the huge family, the atmosphere is very deserted, and the doubts and curiosity in Qianyu's heart are heavier.

Following the route in his memory, Qianyu quietly came to Qian Yuying's boudoir, Qian Yuying did not sleep, and the oil lamp in the room was still on.

"Ahem......"

There was an old man's low coughing sound in the room, and Qianyu's face sank, this was Qianye's voice, and it could be heard from the sound alone that Qianye was suffering from the disease.

"Knock knock knock ......" looked around, and after confirming that there was no one, Qianyu came to the door and knocked softly.

"Who?" said Qian Yuying's vigilant voice from inside the room.

Qianyu didn't answer, Qian Yuying slowly walked to the door, opened the door cautiously, and her face changed from solemn to happy: "Qianyu......"

"Shhhhhh

On the gorgeous bed lay a middle-aged man, with a handsome face and a sturdy physique, but his expression was very haggard, and his eyes were dim, like a withering towering tree.

Seeing Qianye like this, Qianyu felt sad in his heart, is this still the head of the thousand families who galloped thousands of miles back then? What kind of illness can torture an iron-clad man to such an extent?

"Yu'er!" Qianye's eyes radiated brilliance, and he wanted to stand up excitedly, but he never had enough strength, Qianyu walked to the side of the bed and supported him, he trembled and leaned on the head of the bed, looking at Qianyu with satisfaction, Qianyu was dismantled, describing him as old, not at all like a teenager, he couldn't control his emotions for a while, and the old tears were rampant: "Yu'er, it's all my father-in-law's fault, I didn't protect you well, and I made you suffer!"

"Father-in-law!" Qianyu's nose was sour, his eyes were a little moist, his hands were clenched into fists, he must find out why Qianye became like this!

"Yu'er, in the past two years, I have been listening to Yuying tell you about you, but I have never met, and my father-in-law misses you very much. You must have suffered a lot in the past two years, right? Also, what happened to the "death knot" in your body?" Chino asked earnestly.

"Father-in-law, rest assured, I'm doing well in the Necromantic Abyss, thanks to my father-in-law and Yuying's care and support. Qianyu replied with a smile, the books and daily necessities inside the stone cave were all brought by Qian Yuying secretly from Qian's family, and every five or six months, she would meet him privately, although Qian Ye never appeared, but everything Qian Yuying did was because he was behind his support, otherwise, how could these things be hidden from Qianyin?

"I've found a way to break the dead knot, and it's only a matter of time before I break it. ”

"Really?" Chino smiled in surprise, "Haha, that's great!"

Qian Yuying also showed a happy look, she had been worried that Qianyu would die because of the "death trick", and now that Qianyu has found a way, she can regain her life, and Qianjia has new hope!

"Father-in-law, has something happened to the Qianjia family recently, where have all the servants and guards in the clan gone?"

"Since I fell ill, the Qianjia family has been suppressed by the original family in the trade area, and they are losing money almost every month, and now, the family has no money to hire servants. ”

"It shouldn't be, a thousand families have a family business for a hundred years, how can they lose so much in a few months?"

"Alas, I spent a lot of money on the treatment of the disease, and the family failed to make a profit, so the vicious circle has led to the current situation. ”

"I see. After figuring out the reason, Qianyu comforted: "Father-in-law, since I have returned, I will never let the Qianjia continue to rout." ”

"Okay!" Chino looked at Chiyu with satisfaction and said, "Yu'er, I believe in you." ”

On the way back, I saw that he and a black-robed man seemed to be planning some kind of conspiracy, and I suspected that they were coming for my father-in-law. ”

"You've already met with Chiin, does he recognize you?" asked Chino worriedly.

"Don't worry, father-in-law, he didn't recognize it, but he became suspicious. ”

"Oh. Qianye breathed a sigh of relief and said indignantly: "Yu'er, the current Qianjia is already in power by Qianyin, although I have the position of the head of the family, I am just a puppet. You have to be careful with him. ”

"Qianyin is so blatant, won't the other elders in the family stop it?" asked Qianyu suspiciously. It stands to reason that except for Qianyin, the other two elders all support Qianye, and if Qianyin wants to seize power, he must get the support of the other two elders.

"My strength has declined very quickly, and now, Qianyin's strength is the highest, even if they oppose it, what's the use?" Qianye sighed, his expression melancholy.

"If I hadn't had what he wanted, he would have done it to me and Yuying a long time ago. ”

"What's that?"

"The treasure of the town of a thousand families, Po Yuan Dan!"

"Father-in-law, Po Yuan Dan...... What are you doing it for?"

"Breaking the Yuan Pill can allow cultivators to break through to a realm in a short period of time, however, this pill is only useful for Guyuan Realm cultivators. ”

"So powerful?" Qian Yu expressed surprise, along the way of cultivation, there is a difference between clouds and mud in each realm, and there is an insurmountable gap in it, and it is even more difficult to break through. And this Broken Yuan Dan can directly ignore the gap, for cultivators, its value is self-evident.

"Since the Broken Yuan Pill has such benefits, why doesn't the righteous father take it?"

"It is an inheritance left by the ancestors of thousands of families, and it can only be passed on to the next head of the family, and it cannot be taken privately. This is the family rule of a thousand families, and no one has ever disobeyed it in a hundred years. ”

"Father-in-law, what will happen if you disobey?" asked Qianyu.

“...... This one...... I don't know. Chino was stunned for a moment, he had never thought about it.

"Father-in-law, the rules are made by man, not unchangeable. Besides, those ancestors were all figures from decades ago, and the rules they set have long been outdated, you are the head of the family, and the thousand families are now up to you, so why care about these rules?"

Chino was silent, although Chino's words were a little deviant, but they were reasonable, which made him shake the belief he had insisted on for many years.

"Father-in-law, where did you put the Broken Yuan Dan?" Qianyu continued to ask.

"In order to prevent the Broken Yuan Dan from falling into the hands of Qianyin, I hid it in a very safe location. Chino said mysteriously.

"What location?"

"Thousands of families under the latrine. Chino smiled proudly, "How is it, are you impressed by the wisdom of your father-in-law?"

"Uh......" Qian Yu and Qian Yuying both laughed dryly, silent.
