Under the invitation of Yang Lingqing, Long Chen sat down next to her. However, ever since Long Chen arrived, the atmosphere at the Yang Family Ancestor's table could continue to be harmonious, but this side could not.
The group of people here stared at each other, but basically no one moved their chopsticks.
Of course, the other side could see the situation here, but they pretended not to see it and continued to drink and chat.
Long Chen couldn't stand this kind of atmosphere the most. He would rather drink with the girls of the Emerald Jade Pavilion than stay here.
So after a while, he stood up and said, "Everyone, I'm full, I'll leave first."
With the parents of both sides present, Bai Shiji and the others couldn't do anything to Long Chen, so they were all eager for Long Chen to leave.
Seeing Long Chen's impolite behavior, they all gloated over his misfortune.
Sure enough, at this time, the Yang Family Ancestor shifted his gaze to Long Chen and said, "Chen 'er, don't go yet, come here for a moment."
Not knowing what this old guy was up to, Long Chen walked to his side. At this time, everyone put down their bowls and chopsticks, and the Bai Family Patriarch also looked at Long Chen with a smile.
The Yang Family Ancestor patted Long Chen's shoulder and said, "I heard that you had a conflict with Zhi Xing and Shi Dong?"
Long Chen said lightly, "I don't dare."
At this time, the Bai Family Patriarch smiled and said, "Brother, young people are hot-blooded, a little conflict is normal, as long as it doesn't hurt their lives, didn't we also go through this?
How about this, Shi Dong, Zhi Xing, you two come over … "
Under the Bai Family Patriarch's call, two young people trembled over and stood in front of Long Chen, not daring to look directly at him.
The two strong men of the Bai Family, seeing that their family's younger generation's performance was too poor, couldn't help but frown, but the Bai Family Patriarch was broad-minded and said with a smile, "Young people, don't be nervous, it's normal to have conflicts. In the past, I and Brother Yang didn't get to know each other without fighting. Come, come, let's apologize to each other, and from now on we will be good friends."
The Yang Family Ancestor also smiled and said, "That's right, Chen 'er injured someone, he just needs to apologize and this small conflict can be written off.
The Bai and Yang families are as close as brothers. Can't we just let go of the conflict between our brothers? "
Yang Family Old Ancestor's words were directed at Long Chen.
The Yang family's ancestor had given him the Dragon Seal, indirectly giving him such a great benefit. Long Chen was not someone who did not know how to repay kindness, the Demon-Hunting Competition was imminent, his heart to kill Bai Shiji was incomparably firm, so he did not want to cause any trouble at this time.
Therefore, he imitated the two old men and laughed, saying, "Grandpa is right. How can a man fuss over such trivial matters? Come, Brother Shi Dong!"
Before the other party could react, Long Chen gave him a fierce hug and even patted the other party's back.
Everyone was stunned by Long Chen's sudden enthusiasm. At this time, Long Chen also did the same thing. Bai Zhixing, who was at the side, was suddenly embraced by him. Long Chen, with lightning speed, fiercely pinched her pert buttocks!
"That day, I hurt the beautiful and moving Miss Bai, I also feel sorry for it. This flower is for you, as a gift of apology!"
Although it was only a pinch, the touch was indeed better than that of a girl in a brothel. Long Chen let go of his hand at the right time, then took out a wrinkled wild chrysanthemum that he had picked on the way back in the morning and stuffed it into Bai Zhixing's hand.
Bai Zhixing's back was facing the elders, so in the eyes of the elders, Long Chen was just hugging Bai Zhixing. However, the younger generation of the Bai family at the other table were different. They had clearly seen Long Chen's pinch, and their eyes widened. Long Chen's courage had truly broadened their horizons.
Killing intent was revealed in the eyes of Bai Shiji and Bai Shichen.
Of course, Long Chen could feel this feeling of being locked on.
However, he did not think much of it. He turned his face and provocatively looked at Bai Shiji and Bai Shichen. Unexpectedly, he also met Yang Lingqing's angry gaze. He was so scared that he immediately retracted his neck.
At this time, Bai Zhixing also looked at Long Chen in a daze. She was still holding the wild chrysanthemum in her hand. She did not expect Long Chen to be so bold, so she even forgot to scream.
At this time, Long Chen quickly said to the Bai family's Patriarch and the Yang family's Patriarch, "I still have some matters to attend to, so I will take my leave first."
The Bai family's Patriarch smiled faintly and said, "En, if you have something to do, then go ahead."
Ignoring the various gazes of the people in the Hong Wu Palace, Long Chen walked towards the door. Bai Shiji and Bai Shichen exchanged glances. Looking at Long Chen's back as he left, they both sneered.
"Since you're courting death, then don't blame us …"
Just as he walked out of the Hong Wu Palace, just as Long Chen was about to laugh complacently, he felt a sharp pain in his ear. It was so painful that Long Chen's face twitched. Lingxi's cold voice appeared in his ears.
"Bastard, it felt pretty good just now, didn't it!"
Long Chen's complacent heart immediately fell to the bottom of the valley. He hurriedly tried to curry favor with her: "Darling Little Xi, I … Just now, yes, I was provoking Bai Shiji, it was just a provocation …"
"Do you think I'm an idiot? I'm ignoring you!"
Long Chen was sweating profusely. Just as he was about to explain, he saw that Yang Lingqing had already followed behind him. Looking at the girl's gloomy expression, Long Chen knew that he was going to be in for a tragedy again.
Who would have thought that the first thing Yang Lingqing said when she arrived was, "I've reached the sixth level of the Dragon Vein Realm."
This girl's aura was much heavier, and it felt like she was about the same as Yang Lingyue.
She and Long Chen were quite fated. Not only were they born in the same year, month, and day, they had also reached the sixth level of the Dragon Vein Realm at about the same time.
After reaching the sixth level of the Dragon Vein Realm, the chances of Yang Lingqing being in danger in the Demon Hunting Competition were also relatively low. To be honest, she was the only person Long Chen cared about in the Yang family, so Long Chen could move alone with peace of mind.
"That's good. With you around, it's possible to surpass the Bai family by killing a few more Demon Beasts."
Yang Lingqing looked at him with a hopeless expression, and said: "Can you still laugh now?
Don't you know that although both sides said to shake hands and make up at the banquet, Bai Shiji and Bai Shichen will definitely not let you go? I know that your strength has increased very quickly recently, but how can you possibly be a match for the two of them? "
Yang Lingqing said anxiously. Seeing that this girl was still worried about his safety, Long Chen could not bear to let her worry, so he said: "My strength has indeed increased a lot. Although I can't say that I can defeat them, it's not a problem for me to escape, and I don't necessarily have to meet them. Look at you, Chen, I can be considered a crafty person, right?
How can I die in the hands of two ice-faced people? "
Yang Lingqing did not think so. She knew how strong the seventh level of the Dragon Vein Realm was. It was definitely enough to sweep away the sixth level of the Dragon Vein Realm, let alone Long Chen who was at the fifth level.
Just as she was about to speak, Long Chen's gaze suddenly turned cold. He patted Yang Lingqing's shoulder and said: "You go back first, I'll talk to you later."
Yang Lingqing turned around and saw that Yang Xueqing was standing behind her. Knowing that the relationship between Long Chen and Yang Xueqing was strange, she could not interfere. After whispering to Long Chen to be careful, she left.
Seeing her, Long Chen's complacent mood immediately became extremely unhappy.
Yang Xueqing took a few steps forward and sized up Long Chen. Her expression was not as cold as before, but it was still cold.
"Do you know why my father invited the Bai family to a banquet today?
Because our two families are already preparing for the wedding. In the afternoon of three days, you will enter the Great Desolate Mountain, and I will marry into the Bai family. "
Long Chen knew that it would be like this, and he had already expected it, so he looked at Yang Xueqing and did not say anything.
"After I kill Bai Shiji, the news will spread. Let's see how you guys will go through the ceremony."
Seeing that Long Chen did not react, Yang Xueqing was too lazy to bother with him and continued: "After the Demonic Hunting Competition, give the Demonic Core you obtained to the Lingwu family, and then you will leave Baiyang Town. I heard that not only did you obtain the Dragon Seal, you also obtained five hundred spirit jades. Our Yang family has treated you well, so I hope you can stop before going too far."
"Our Yang family still wants to pass down the Dragon Seal Secret Manual. Give it to me now. After you leave, I will return it to my father."
Listening to Yang Xueqing's words, it seemed that she had never treated Long Chen as a member of the Yang family. It just so happened that Long Chen had never felt any sense of belonging to this family. In any case, Long Chen had already dug out all the secrets of the Dragon Seal, so this broken thing was useless to him. Thus, he took it out from his bosom and threw it into Yang Xueqing's hands.
"I've already gotten what I should. Do you think laozi wants to stay in this broken place? laozi still has to go out and find spirit herbs for my darling Xiao Xi.
However, when laozi gets rid of Bai Shiji, I really look forward to your reaction. But at that time, even if you want to kill me, you won't be able to … "
Without saying anything further, Long Chen turned around and left.
Yang Xueqing did not expect Long Chen to be so straightforward. Looking at the Dragon Seal Secret Manual, then looking at Long Chen's arrogant back as he left, she laughed mockingly and said: "What a childish fellow. He can't be provoked. Did you think it was so easy for you to learn the two moves of the Dragon Seal in these few days?"
Soon after, her gaze became gloomy as she said: "Since he made Shi Xun act like this, Shiji and the others will definitely deal with him in the Demonic Hunting Competition. He is merely at the fifth layer of the Dragon Vein Stage. How can he be a match for them by relying on a middle ranked body refining battle skill?
Although he is ignorant and incompetent, he is still my flesh and blood. Fine, I will plead for you with Shiji … "
"I hope that this time, you will understand how to repay kindness."
After turning into a long corridor, Lingxi repeated Yang Xueqing's words to Long Chen. Long Chen laughed after hearing it.
"Hey, do you really not care that your mother is looking down on you?"
Long Chen said indifferently: "If I care, it will only make me feel uncomfortable. Why should I bear this pain for nothing?
Since she thinks that I am not their match, if I were to anger myself, then I would be a true idiot. What I want to do is to completely destroy Bai Shiji. "
"Alright, I don't care about you, but if it was me, I would cry very miserably …"
Long Chen turned his head to look at the Yang family's courtyard. This was the place he had stayed in for many years. It was unfamiliar yet familiar.
This was originally his home, but he did not feel the slightest sense of security. Even the people closest to him could not give him a sense of security.
When had he not suffered? It was just that he was numb to it, so he would not be stupid enough to show it on his face.
"You can plead for me, but who will plead for him …"
