Seeing Su Chen again, Ning Yan felt mixed emotions.
Her childhood playmate has now grown up to the point where she is out of reach.
The Su family controls the five major cities. According to the news from Mingyue City, Su Chen of the Su family is also a powerful cultivator in the Guiyuan realm.
Now, Su Chen is far ahead of her in both strength and status.
Su Chen smiled and asked, "How are you doing recently? I've never been to Pingyang City, so why didn't you tell me that you were coming to Mingyue City to find me?"
Ning Yan suddenly smiled bitterly. Faced with this question, she didn't know how to answer for a moment.
In fact, after returning to the main family, the side branches of Ning Yan's lineage did not have a good life and were always suppressed and targeted.
The one who asked them to come back was the Ning family's great elder.
Ning Yan's father managed Mingyue City's business in an orderly manner, and the scale even increased by nearly ten times. Perhaps because of this, the direct descendants wanted to steal their achievements.
Since returning to the Ning family, he has to report even when leaving the Ning Mansion, so he has no chance to see Su Chen.
Seeing her appearance, Su Chen suddenly asked curiously:
"What's wrong? Are you being bullied?"
When Ning Yan heard this, her heart trembled slightly. When they were in Mingyue City, every time she was scolded by her parents, she would go to Su Chen to confide in him and then cry there.
And Su Chen would ask this question every time.
Are you being bullied?
Until now, Ning Yan can still vaguely remember Su Chen's appearance at that time, a little angry and a little worried.
For some reason, Ning Yan felt warm in her heart. She shook her head and said:
"It's okay. Everything is fine."
As she spoke, she stood up with a smile on her face.
"Wait for me first. I'll take you to Pingyang City later. We haven't seen each other for so long. I'll take you to have a good meal later."
Seeing that he was unwilling to speak, Su Chen did not ask, but just nodded and said: "Okay."
Ning Yan walked out of the reception hall. Not long after, she returned and said with a smile on her face:
"Let's go, Su Chen."
Su Chen stood up, and the two of them prepared to leave the Ning family.
Before arriving at the Ning family, Su Chen had anticipated Ning Yan's attitude towards her, which might be awe, fear, flattery, etc.
But he didn't expect that Ning Yan had no such emotions towards him at all, only... happiness. He could clearly feel that Ning Yan was very happy.
Very pure happiness.
Just as the two were about to leave the Ning family, a cold sigh was heard.
"Ning Yan, stop right there."
When Ning Yan heard this, his face suddenly changed. He turned his head to look in the direction of the sound, only to see a defiant young man looking at him coldly.
Ninglin.
This man is the son of the Great Elder. Perhaps at the instruction of the Great Elder, he often bullies her.
Ning Lin walked up slowly and scolded, "Go back! Who told you to come out?"
If it were an ordinary time, Ning Yan might have endured it.
But Su Chen was by her side today, and perhaps Ning Yan didn't want him to see her predicament, so she was filled with anger.
"The Third Elder has already agreed to let me go, why do you care about me?"
Ning Lin's eyes suddenly narrowed. He took two steps forward, raised his hand and slapped Ning Yan in the face: "You dare to talk back? You're asking for a beating!"
However, before he could hit Ning Yan, he was stopped by Su Chen who was standing beside him.
Ning Lin saw that Su Chen dared to stop him, and his face suddenly flushed with anger: "Where did this bastard come from? He even dares to meddle in the affairs of my Ning family. He is looking for death!"
As he spoke, his cultivation in the late foundation building stage burst out, and he wanted to break free from Su Chen's hand, but found that he couldn't do it at all.
Su Chen's hands were like iron clamps, locking him tightly.
Ning Lin saw that he couldn't break free, so he said angrily, "Damn it, let me go, or I will kill you today."
Su Chen lightly pushed out a palm, and Ning Lin flew backwards like a kite with a broken string, falling to the ground, blood spurting out of his mouth, and his breath was extremely weak.
"roll!"
If Ning Lin hadn't been a member of Ning Yan's clan, he would have killed him directly and would not have let him hang around here.
At the same time, a powerful aura erupted from the Ning family, and a figure quickly appeared in front of them.
The person who came was the Ning family’s great elder, Ning Wei.
When Ning Lin saw him, he excitedly shouted, "Dad, he dared to hurt me, kill him quickly."
Ning Wei first glanced at Ning Lin and ordered his servants to take him to heal his wounds. Then he looked at Su Chen and said with a cold expression, "You are so brave to hurt a direct descendant of the Ning family."
After saying that, he looked at Ning Yan again.
"Ning Yan, did you bring that person into the Ning family?"
Looking at Ning Wei, Ning Yan's eyes flashed with fear. She hesitantly said, "Great Elder, this is my friend, and it was Young Master Ning Lin who attacked me first. He wouldn't let me leave the Ning family."
"presumptuous!"
Ning Wei suddenly shouted angrily. He was furious, especially when he saw his son being seriously injured. He was even more crazy.
If he had to consider the reputation of the entire side branch, he would have wanted to slap Ning Yan to death.
"Ning Lin is a direct descendant, and you are a side branch. You just have to do what he tells you to do. Even if the Third Elder agrees, so what? Ning Lin said you are not allowed to leave the Ning family, so you are not allowed to."
"Besides, you're going to marry someone from the Xu family, and you're still hanging out with other men. What kind of talk is that?"
"Ning Feng has been imprisoned in the dungeon because of you. Do you want your mother to go down with him? Go back and marry into the Xu family in half a month."
Hearing the Great Elder's cold words, Ning Yan lowered her head with red eyes.
Ning Feng is his father!
Half a year ago, Ning Wei framed her father and forced her to marry into the Xu family.
The Xu family is the top force in Pingyang City, with three people in the God Transformation stage. The fourth young master of the Xu family has always liked her, so Ning Wei used her to please him.
Ning Yan naturally did not want to marry the fourth young master of the Xu family, but due to her parents' reasons, she was forced to agree to the eldest elder.
Thinking of this, Ning Yan felt inexplicably aggrieved.
They had done nothing wrong, and the same was true for their lineage, but they were targeted by the Great Elder.
Ning Wei's tone left no room for negotiation, leaving Ning Yan no room for negotiation.
Then he looked at Su Chen again, his tone full of cold murderous intent.
"Boy, it's your turn now."
"You attacked a member of my Ning family. If you can't give me an explanation today, you can enter my Ning family's gate, but you can't leave."
Ning Wei looked at Su Chen with cold eyes. If it weren't for the fact that Su Chen had an extraordinary demeanor and seemed to have some important background, he would have killed Su Chen long ago.
