Thinking of this, the head of the Shen family's face darkened, and he said in a firm tone: "No need to pick her up, she can come back or not!"

"I agree with what the patriarch said." The eldest elder was the first to agree.

"No matter how talented Chen Yan is, how can she compare to our Xue'er? What's more, she is cold-blooded and ruthless, arrogant and domineering, beating up family disciples and insulting the Shen family. What's even more infuriating is that she actually had the Third Elder beaten! This is simply unforgivable!"

The elders nodded as if they shared a common hatred for the enemy.

The head of the Shen family narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "Send someone to find out who the guard next to Chen Yan is. What is his background?"

The mysterious guard beat the Third Elder without any chance of fighting back. He must have a cultivation level above the Earth Rank.

Such a person is actually willing to be a small guard beside Chen Yan?

Soon, the head of the Shen family thought of something and his face darkened.

Could it be that Tianhao sent people to protect Chen Yan?

When you think about it this way, everything makes sense.

Shen Xue raised her eyes to look at the head of the Shen family, hesitated for a moment and said, "Grandfather, the Xuanwu Kingdom auction will start soon, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince invites Xue'er to go with him..."

Upon hearing this, the head of the Shen family's expression softened and he said, "Go, keep an eye on Chen Yan for me. Tie her up when necessary and don't let her waste those 50,000 taels of gold. If you can capture her, Grandfather would rather use those 50,000 taels of gold for you. Xue'er, do you understand?"

"Grandfather, Xue'er understands."

Shen Xue nodded in agreement.

…

At this time, Chen Yan, who was at the center of public opinion in the imperial city, had already left Nanxiao Kingdom.

She was accompanied by Hongri and Uncle Tan Zhuang.

Tan Zhuang was happy to be the coachman, while Chen Yan and Hong Ri stayed in the carriage.

While driving the carriage, Tan Zhuang spoke to Chen Yan inside: "Yan Yan, your behavior just now is quite similar to Tian Hao's style back then! You really are worthy of being his daughter."

Chen Yan in the carriage paused when he heard this, then asked, "Uncle Zhuang, what was Dad like before?"

Tan Zhuang said with a smile, "Your father was a very popular figure back then. Countless top forces wanted to invite him to join, but he declined."

"Uncle Zhuang, how did you and Daddy know each other?"

He smiled innocently, "That's a long story. Back in the Central Region, your father saved my life. Later, I became your father's little brother, hehe."

Zhongyu?

Chen Yan's eyes flickered. It turned out that her father had also been to Guiyuan Central Region.

The Guiyuan Continent is divided into five major domains, but the Central Domain is the place that countless practitioners yearn for. It is said that there are countless powerful people there.

She always believed that her father was very strong.

Fifteen years ago, when Dad returned to the Shen family, he was seriously injured and his foundation was destroyed. So, are Dad's enemies in the Central Region?

Chen Yan continued to ask, "So Daddy has been to the Central Region. Uncle Zhuang, did Daddy make any close female friends in the Central Region at that time?"

"No." Tan Zhuang said without any hesitation.

He sighed and said, "I still don't know when your father got married and had you and Huai'er, these lovely children..."

Chen Yan suppressed this question for the time being.

Along the way, Tan Zhuang seemed to chat with her about some topics in order to keep her from getting bored.

…

Half a day later.

Hong Ri lifted the carriage curtain, then turned and smiled at Chen Yan: "Miss, we have arrived at the gate of the Xuanwu Kingdom's imperial city."

Chen Yan responded softly.

At this time, there were many teams waiting outside the gate of Xuanwu Kingdom to enter the city, and it seemed that they all came for this auction.

Seeing so many teams, Tan Zhuang's expression became slightly serious. He immediately said to Chen Yan, "Yan Yan, it looks like we have to wait for another half an hour. If you feel tired, take a break first."

"good."

There was a noise outside the carriage.

Most of them were discussing the items in the auction, while the rest were discussing the tragic annihilation of the Tianfang Sect, the largest sect in the Western Region of Pingze.

"Our Tianfang Sect, the most powerful sect in the western region of Pingze, was completely slaughtered overnight. I heard that our disciples who were on missions outside were also hunted down."

"Where is the young master of Tianfang Sect?"

"I heard that she had gone out on a mission earlier and is now missing."

"Which force is so cruel and crazy?"

"Someone seemed to have said that the force that massacred the Tianfang Sect did not come from the western region of Pingze, but from several other regions."

"How ridiculous! The other four regions really think our Pingze West Region is a toy!"

"Alas, it's because our Pingze West Region is the weakest region in Guiyuan Continent..."

Chen Yan took in all the words.

About half an hour later, Chen Yan and his companions finally entered the imperial city of Xuanwu Kingdom.

I met Yin Yue who had been waiting at the city gate.

Yin Yue was surprised to see Tan Zhuang beside Chen Yan. When she was about to ask, Hong Ri answered first.

"Yin Yue, this is Uncle Tan, sent by the young master to protect our young lady."

Yin Yue suddenly realized and immediately bowed to Tan Zhuang.

"Meet Uncle Tan."

"Haha, you're welcome." Tan Zhuang laughed heartily.

Yin Yue politely nodded to Tan Zhuang, then respectfully said to Chen Yan, "Miss, Yin Yue has already arranged the inn. Please follow Yin Yue."

Chen Yan nodded: "Okay."

The imperial city of Xuanwu Kingdom is extremely bustling, with all kinds of things being sold in every street and alley.

There are countless shops.

The streets were crowded with people, accompanied by the sounds of hawking and conversation.

Chen Yan and her companions stood out in the crowd because Chen Yan was extremely beautiful and had a cold and indifferent temperament, which formed a contrast with Tan Zhuang behind her. Tan Zhuang looked as tall and mighty as a small hill. Although he looked honest, there was a murderous look in his eyes.
