In the evening, in front of the mountain gate, a group of people were waiting.

Xiao Chen is here too.

No matter what, the masters from Feiyunfang and Nangong family came to help him, and he had to remember this favor!

Accompanying him, besides Ning Kejun and others, was Xiao Lin.

Xiao Sheng didn't come because he had a lot of things to do, but when people arrived, the Xiao family would hold a dinner and Xiao Sheng would show up then.

Xiao Chen was relieved to see that Xiao Sheng didn't come. He felt that if Xiao Sheng came and stood next to him, he would be very uncomfortable.

Xiao Sheng is different from Xiao Yi, Xiao Mian and others. After all, Xiao Chen was not familiar with them before, and he didn't even know them.

Therefore, when Xiao Chen and Xiao Yi were drinking and chatting, they didn't feel the atmosphere was awkward or anything.

Besides, Xiao Chen had no opinion about them. After all, they were in seclusion at that time and everything had nothing to do with them.

Xiao Sheng is different. First of all, he is Xiao Chen's father and has experienced what happened back then... Xiao Chen has always hated him for ignoring his life and death!

Although Xiao Sheng's behavior this time is different from before, some knots in his heart cannot be untied easily.

Xiao Chen felt that the best way was... not to meet or deal with them.

"By the way, kid, the ancestor has ordered a blockade of what happened today."

Xiao Lin thought of something and said to Xiao Chen.

"Huh? Blocked? Why?"

Xiao Chen was stunned.

"It's all for your protection. At your age, you can fight against a half-step Xiantian. If this gets out, it will definitely cause a sensation in the entire ancient martial arts world... Your great perfection of Hua Jin has already attracted many people to target you. If they knew that you can fight against a half-step Xiantian, those Xiantian masters would be restless."

Xiao Lin explained.

"So, you should keep a low profile recently."

"Well, I was thinking that after today, the world would be full of legends about me. Am I overthinking?"

Xiao Chen was a little speechless.

"What legends are there? Living is the real thing. When you take another step forward and fight against the innate, you won't have to worry about these things. At that time, you can be as high-profile as you want."

Xiao Lin warned, young people, it’s no good to like to show off.

"Not really, right? There are only a few innate masters in the ancient martial arts world. I didn't kill their descendants, and I didn't dig up their ancestral graves. Why would he target me? If we're not enemies, who would want to provoke me for no reason? It's okay if he kills me once, but if he can't, then what awaits him may be my endless revenge."

Xiao Chen said with a smile.

"Besides, even if I'm facing an innate master, I have some trump cards. Winning... is impossible, but I can always run away."

"Are you sure you can escape from Xiantian?"

Xiao Lin was a little surprised.

"Of course, would I joke with my own life? For someone like Lao Xiao, no problem. If he is much stronger than him, I don't know."

Xiao Chen said this and glanced towards Xiantian Peak.

"Speaking of this, I think I should ask him whether he is a strong or weak person among the innate masters. If he is a weak person, then he really needs to be careful when he meets an innate master."

“…”

Xiao Lin looked at Xiao Chen, speechless. You call him Old Xiao all the time. It’s quite smooth for you to call him that!

"By the way, even if Old Xiao ordered the news to be blocked, wouldn't the Xuantian Sect and the Ximen Family spread the news? Even if they feel embarrassed, there will always be news that gets out, right? There were so many people watching at the time, how could there be no news at all?"

Xiao Chen thought of something and said.

“Don’t worry about that. Even if the news gets out, the outside world won’t believe it… Who would dare to believe that you can fight against a half-step innate? If you were not my nephew, I wouldn’t believe it either.”

Xiao Lin said to Xiao Chen.

"That's right... Haha, now you believe I can protect you, right?"

Xiao Chen grinned.

"Um."

Xiao Lin nodded.

"Alas, I am getting old after all. The new generation will always replace the old generation."

Just as Xiao Lin was sighing, a group of people came over.

"Grand Elder."

Ning Kejun saw the old man in the lead and walked forward slowly.

"Master!"

The old man smiled when he saw Ning Kejun.

"Well, thank you for your hard work, Great Elder. Thank you for your hard work, too."

Ning Kejun nodded and glanced at the people behind him. There were five people in total, all of them were at the level of Hua Jin!

"Haha, Elder Yang, we meet again. You look good."

Xiao Lin also stepped forward. He was an old acquaintance of the grand elder of Feiyunfang.

After all, he was familiar with Ning Kejun, and had naturally met the people from Feiyunfang.

He even visited Feiyunfang.

"Xiao Xiaoyou..."

The old man bowed and exchanged a few words with Xiao Lin, then his eyes fell on Xiao Chen.

"Great Elder, he is Xiao Chen."

Ning Kejun introduced him to the great elder.

"Haha, I'm glad to meet Elder Yang... Thank you all for coming from afar. I appreciate your kindness."

Xiao Chen bowed and said gratefully.

"I don't deserve it. Young Master Xiao is well-known in the martial arts world and is an unrivaled genius..."

Hearing Xiao Chen's words, the old man smiled even more. He was very satisfied with Xiao Chen's attitude.

"Just call me 'Xiao Chen'."

Xiao Chen looked strange. "Young Master Xiao?" What the hell is that name? Are you filming a movie?

Although he knew that the ancient martial arts world still retained such titles, he really couldn't get used to them and always had a feeling of time travel.

"Then just call me 'Little Friend Xiao'."

The old man thought for a moment and said.

"good."

Xiao Chen nodded, then looked at Xiao Lin.

"Uncle Qi, we are both 'young friends', does that mean we are one generation old?"

"Do you dare to live forever?"

Xiao Lin stared, what a mess.

"Haha, to each his own."

The old man also smiled.

"I have heard of Xiao Xiaoyou's name for a long time. Today, I see that he is really handsome and has an extraordinary temperament."

"I'm talking about me, not you."

Xiao Chen said this to Xiao Lin first, and then his face was full of smiles.

"Haha, we are all family. Elder Yang, please stop praising me. I am easily proud because I cannot stand being praised."

"Hahaha, okay, I won't brag anymore."

The old man laughed and nodded.

"Yes, you are right. We are all family, so we should not have different opinions."

As they were talking, three more people came over.

The leader was also an old man.

“Nangong Liang?”

Elder Yang was slightly surprised when he saw the old man in the lead. The Nangong family had reached the peak of their transformation energy!

"Yang Mu, you are here too."

The old man also saw Elder Yang, nodded at him, and then looked at Nangong Ling.

"Grandpa Liang, why are you here?"

Nangong Ling was also a little surprised when she saw the old man.

"Haha, it's your master who asked me to protect you."

The old man smiled kindly.

"How is it? Has anyone bullied my little Ling'er?"

"Grandpa Liang, I'm lucky enough that I don't bully others."

Nangong Ling shook her head.

"Haha, that's good."

The old man smiled and nodded, then looked at Xiao Chen.

"Are you Xiao Chen?"

"Yes, I've met Senior Nangong."

Xiao Chen nodded.

"It is rumored that you have the strength of the Great Perfection of Transformation Energy. Is it true or false?"

The old man asked.

"Fake."

Xiao Chen replied.

"I think so too. How can you, at such a young age, have the strength to reach the Great Perfection of Transformation Energy..."

The old man nodded, somewhat satisfied with Xiao Chen. This boy was quite honest.

"Grandpa Liang, please stop talking..."

Hearing the old man's words, Nangong Ling whispered.

"What's wrong? Haha, I can't talk about your little boyfriend anymore?"

The old man chuckled. He knew what his third brother Nangong Bufan was thinking. He was quite opposed to this matter before, but now that he saw Xiao Chen, he felt quite satisfied.

"He is indeed not at the Great Perfection of Transformation Energy, but... he is half a step into the Xiantian realm."

Nangong Ling whispered.

"What? Half a step to innateness?"

Hearing this, the old man widened his eyes and couldn't believe it.

Nangong Ling glanced at Xiao Chen and said, "It should be okay if I tell Grandpa Liang, right?"

"Haha, Ling'er is right. I am indeed not at the Great Perfection of Hua Jin, but... half a step into Xiantian."

Xiao Chen noticed Nangong Ling's gaze and said with a smile.

"So, the rumors... are wrong."

"Half a step to the innate..."

The old man's eyes widened even more. He thought he had heard it wrong.

Not only him, but even Elder Yang and others were shocked. Half a step to innateness?

Elder Yang looked at Ning Kejun, who nodded slightly.

“…”

Elder Yang's breathing became a little difficult, and then he was overjoyed. This time... he had definitely come to the right place!

The future of Feiyunfang is bright!

"Are you really half a step into the innate realm?"

Nangong Liang still couldn't believe it and asked again.

"To be precise, I have the combat power of half a step into the innate realm..."

Xiao Chen said with a smile.

Although Nangong Liang came and ignored them as if he looked down on them, he came to help anyway.

Therefore, Xiao Chen's attitude is still very good.

“Senior Nangong, it’s true.”

Xiao Lin spoke and bowed.

"Xiao Lin meets Senior Nangong."

"It's not the first time we've met, so there's no need to be so polite."

Nangong Liang waved his hands and stared at Xiao Chen.

"What is your ancient martial arts realm?"

"Middle stage of Hua Jin."

“…”

Nangong Liang sucked in a breath of cold air. A mid-stage Hua Jin warrior has the combat power of half a step to the innate level?

Although he felt that Xiao Chen could not fool him in front of so many people, he still looked at Nangong Ling.

"Grandpa Liang, it's true."

Nangong Ling nodded.

“…”

Nangong Liang believed it. This... the Xiao family really had a monster!

Thinking of what he had just said, his old face couldn't help but turn red. It's over. He was so embarrassed!

“Senior Nangong, and everyone else… don’t just stand there, please come in.”

Xiao Chen smiled and invited them in.

"good."

Nangong Liang nodded, glanced at a place, and paused.

He also wanted to change the subject, otherwise it would be too embarrassing.

"Hey, Xiao Lin, isn't there a white jade archway here in your Xiao family?"

“Hmm…”

This time it was Xiao Lin's turn to be a little embarrassed. What should he say? Was he chopped into pieces by Xiao Chen's sword?

"I heard that there was a thunderstorm a while ago. The white jade archway had been in disrepair for a long time, and there was a thunderbolt, so... it was damaged."

Xiao Chen was talking nonsense.

"Oh, so that's how it is."

Nangong Liang nodded and asked no more questions.

At the same time, he was still uneasy. This kid... he is not even thirty years old, but he can fight against a half-step innate person?

In other words, he can't beat Xiao Chen?

Can’t even beat a young man?

It’s a bit heartbreaking!
