Walking through the pavilions and through the tree-lined paths, Elder Sun took Xu Chen and Chu Yang to the backyard of the Xu Mansion, and before they could enter the square, they had already heard the sound of weapons colliding.

Entering the square, there is an open space in front of you, the familiar gossip map, the familiar stands.

It's just that at this time, in the center of the square, there are people competing, and the two small stands in the east and west are already full of people, the east side is the Zhao family's people, and on the west side of the stands, the middle-aged man is sitting in the middle of the position, not Xu Zijie.

At that moment, Xu Chen's eyes turned uncontrollably sour, he deliberately listened to his footsteps, and watched from a distance.

Maybe it was out of some kind of induction, Xu Zijie, who was originally extremely concerned about the situation on the field, unintentionally glanced at the entrance of the square, just like that, he was stunned.

After all, it's his own son, even if it's not his own, it's his father who grew up watching him grow up, and he has been called for sixteen years, how can he not recognize it?

I saw Xu Zijie stunned for a long time, and finally stood up stiffly and slowly at a certain moment, watched, and watched like that.

After a while, everyone in the square seemed to notice Xu Zijie's unusual behavior and turned their eyes to the entrance of the square.

At that moment, Xu Chen was neither excited nor nervous, but surprisingly calm and calm, because of such a scene, he accepted it more than once in the Dushan Sect.

The next moment, I saw Xu Zijie hurriedly get off the stands, and walked in the direction of Xu Chen excitedly, but the big step was really running.

A moment later, close at hand, looking at each other, the two of them did not speak for a while.

Perhaps in order to break this embarrassment, and in order not to make Chu Yang next to him seem dispensable, Elder Sun said softly: "Family master, the eldest young master came back this time to see you. ”

"Well, good! good!"

Xu Zijie nodded stupidly like an old man.

Elder Sun stretched out his hand to introduce Chu Yang, "This is a friend of the eldest young master, I heard that he is from the capital, and he is the son of a wealthy merchant. ”

Chu Yang clasped his hands into fists and saluted respectfully to Xu Zijie, "Hello uncle!"

Come to think of it, this should be the first time that Chu Yang has been so humble and called Uncle Xu Zijie, doesn't that mean that Xu Zijie can be called a brother and a brother to today's son?

Anyway, out of help to Xu Chen, he could only admit it, and said in his heart, it was just screaming, and it was not a big deal.

"Oh, it's from the capital, hey, I've seen it, my family has caused you a lot of trouble during this time, so I'll take him to thank you." ”

Xu Zijie also returned the salute politely.

"Then, then don't stand here, let's go to the stage together, and when this scene is over, I'll talk to the Zhao family first, and I'll talk about it tomorrow." ”

"Well, well, Dad, no, you can go on, if there is anything to say in the evening. ”

Xu Chen said in understanding.

Who thought that Xu Zijie was very angry and said: "Then how can it be done, you finally came back, other things are not important, even if I give them the market, so what?"

After speaking, Xu Zijie led a few people and slowly walked towards the west stand.

"Chen'er, since you left, the more I think about it, the more wrong it becomes, no matter what happens, you shouldn't let a child bear all the consequences, this time, don't leave this time, even if his Bai family really wants to deal with us, then fight with them, what's the matter?"

While walking, Xu Zijie whispered to Xu Chen, as if admitting his mistakes and lamenting the past.

"Daddy!"

Xu Chen still calls it like this, out of the name of his heart, he has raised himself for sixteen years, and he has been called for sixteen years, how can he say that he can let it go.

"I actually have other things, I have something to tell you when I come back this time, and I'm going to leave right away. ”

"Huh?"

Xu Zijie looked at Xu Chen with a smile, and his steps were much slower, "Why? Are you still angry with your father?"

Xu Chen just shook his head, "No!"

"Well, if you have anything to say, you can say it now!"

"Wait, wait until the evening, there are a lot of people now. ”

Xu Chen pointed around.

"Well, good!"

While speaking, the four of them had already walked up to the stands, and the elders who were originally sitting next to Xu Zijie walked away and found places to sit down on both sides.

In this way, Xu Zijie took Xu Chen and Chu Yang to sit quietly in the middle of the West Stand, and there was nothing to say for a while, and they all set their eyes on the center of the square.

There, a man and a woman were competing, and the two long swords were flying up and down, which was very beautiful.

But the layman looked at the lively insider's doorway, Xu Chen clearly felt that with the strength of the two people on the field, if they were in the Dushan Sect, even Pan An would be able to decide the winner with one sword at this time.

It's really better for people to die than people, and it's no wonder that the difference between a capital city and a small town is huge.

"That, that's Xu Ming?"

Xu Chen suddenly vaguely saw the cheek of the young man on the field, wasn't that Xu Ming who had competed with him a few months ago?

At this time, I only heard Xu Zijie smile excitedly, "Yes, it's only been a few months, this Xu Ming has stepped from the first realm to the second realm, it's really incomprehensible, this kid is really very talented, and I will focus on training in the future." ”

Indeed, in Yong'an, Xu Ming's talent is already good, Xu Chen smiled slightly, and echoed: "Yes, it's really fast." ”

At this time, Xu Zijie's eyes were confused, and he asked Xu Chen tentatively, "Chen'er, in the past few months, have you, have you practiced? If you are willing to work hard, I believe that you will be able to surpass your father sooner or later, and if you stay, Dad, Dad can hand over the Xu family to you." ”

As soon as these words came out, I saw a cold gaze coming from behind, it was a young man, his right hand was gone, it was Xu Yang.

From the moment Xu Chen came to the square, he kept looking at it fiercely, as if he had gone to some threat.

At this time, Chu Yang, who was sitting on the side, laughed inexplicably, laughing so uncontrollably.

Obviously, as a disciple of Lu Yinguoshi, although he didn't know anything about cultivation, he was familiar with it, and he also knew a lot about it, so he naturally vaguely knew Xu Chen's strength, and Xu Zijie's words just now obviously made him a little unbearable.

At this time, Xu Zijie also glanced at Chu Yang, and then said in Xu Chen's ear: "Chen'er, what's wrong with your friend?"

"Ahh

Xu Chen scratched his head in embarrassment, "The children of rich families are like this, maybe they have a low laugh." ”

"Oh!"

Xu Zijie nodded seriously, "Then, Chen'er, how is your cultivation now, have you entered the middle stage of the second realm?" ”

"Hmm. ”

Xu Chen hesitated for a long time, and after thinking about it, he still decided not to talk about the situation in the past few months, so he whispered, "Are you in?"

Obviously, such a vague sentence made Xu Zijie quite disappointed, and he thought that Xu Chen was comforting him, "Oh, it's good to enter, it's good to enter!"

At this time, I saw that the situation in the center of the square changed suddenly, and the woman of the Zhao family suddenly stabbed out three swords in a row, stabbing Xu Ming's upper, middle and lower three important parts, and the sword was very fast, but for Xu Ming, it was already extremely fast.

In a hurry, Xu Ming panicked, and his movements slowed down for a while, only to see that the woman was so uncertain, taking advantage of Xu Ming's stunned kung fu, the long sword was directly on Xu Ming's neck.

The winner was immediately decided, Xu Ming closed his eyes helplessly, and then said loudly: "Miss Zhao, you won!"

Xu Ming has always been willing to gamble and lose, even if he had the same competition with Xu Chen before, I saw that the woman calmly withdrew the long sword, smiled casually, and looked very disdainful and proud.

"This doll of the Zhao family is very proud, and she doesn't take my Xu family seriously. ”

Xu Zijie said indignantly.

Xu Chen also looked at the woman and said softly: "Father, she is the ...... of the Zhao family."

"Hmm!"

Xu Zijie nodded awkwardly, "She is Zhao Wouji's daughter, her cultivation is very good, you should be able to see just now that she has been teasing Xu Ming's stupid child, otherwise it would have been over a long time ago, this Zhao family is too angry." ”

Maybe it was because Xu Chen had just come back and didn't want him to feel depressed, so he deliberately restrained a lot of anger and just patted him lightly on the chair.

But I heard Xu Chen say calmly: "Father, then, now our Xu family has lost two games, right?

At this time, I saw Xu Zijie smile slightly, and said softly: "That's not it, you don't know, at this time, the new rules of our two families are four wins in seven games, otherwise, it will be too unfair like before." ”

After speaking, Xu Zijie stood up, as if he wanted to step down, "Xu Chen, wait a while, I'll go and talk to that Zao Wou-ki, that's all for today's competition, and I'll talk about it tomorrow." ”

However, as soon as Xu Zijie was about to leave, his cuffs were pulled by Xu Chen, "Father, I really don't need to, you continue, I haven't watched such a wonderful competition for a long time, and I just want to see it." ”

Xu Zijie glanced at Xu Chen and said tentatively, "Really?"

"Hmm"

Xu Chen nodded hurriedly, "Yes, let's just compare it normally, I also want to take a look." ”

"Good!"

Hearing Xu Chen say this, Xu Zijie slowly sat back in the chair.

At this time, I suddenly heard Xu Chen ask in a low voice: "Father, do you have to be different from others in this aura competition?"

"Hmm...... No. ”

Xu Zijie was a little confused, "Chen'er, what do you mean by this." ”

"I mean, maybe we can play alone and finish the rest of the game!"

Xu Chen licked his lips, and there was still a glimmer of light in his eyes.

At this time, there was already a descendant of the Xu family who appeared to face him, looking at this young man, Xu Zijie shook his head and said: "In the rules, there is no activity and you must change people every time, but everyone knows that such a competition is quite a waste of physical strength and cultivation, no one will be stupid enough to compete with several people in a row, so if you don't lose, there will be ghosts?"

Hearing this, the corners of Xu Chen's mouth curled slightly, "Father, you're about to have a birthday, then I'll give you a birthday gift." ”
