"No, there's no point in killing a chicken with a butcher's knife. My people will take care of them."
Zhang Xin shook her head.
Ning Beichen is her biggest trump card, so naturally she can't waste it on these little minions.
Sure enough, not long after, Ning Beichen realized that the people following them had disappeared. Apparently Zhang Xin's people had already intercepted them.
"Miss Zhang Xin, where are we going now?"
Ning Beichen ignored those who were following him and turned to ask Zhang Xin.
"Go to our Zhang family's ancestral home in Pingdingshan."
Zhang Xin replied.
"Does Chen Qiao know this place?"
Ning Beichen asked.
"Maybe he doesn't know, otherwise, he would have obtained the complete Daoyuan Mind Technique long ago."
Zhang Xin said.
"Then it seems we won't be too peaceful on this journey."
Ning Beichen said.
"Are you scared?"
Zhang Xin asked him.
Although she knew that Ning Beichen was very powerful, she had no idea how strong Ning Beichen was, and Ning Beichen didn't tell her.
But in her heart, Ning Beichen's strength should not be as good as Chen Qiao's. After all, Chen Qiao has practiced the Dao Yuan Heart Technique. Although he has not yet broken through the Grandmaster, no one under the Grandmaster will be Chen Qiao's opponent.
Zhang Xin didn't know whether it was right or wrong to fight to the death this time, but she was unwilling to wait any longer. If she waited any longer, once Chen Qiao broke through the master, even if she had obtained the current Dao Yuan Heart Technique.
, and will not be Chen Qiao's opponent.
"Miss Zhang Xin, you don't need to test me. Since I promised to protect you, I will not break my promise."
Ning Beichen looked at her with some dissatisfaction and said.
"I'm sorry, I didn't mean that."
Zhang Xin quickly apologized.
"We are in the same boat now. Be more sincere and less tempted. I want to rest for a while. Call me when you get somewhere."
After Ning Beichen finished speaking, he closed his eyes and rested.
If she can't handle the minions outside, then Ning Beichen will have to reconsider whether she can help or not.
The black commercial vehicle was driving on a forest path, and from time to time there were gunshots and explosions in the surroundings.
About two hours later, the commercial vehicle came to a stop at the foot of a mountain.
"Mr. Ning, we are here."
Ning Beichen opened his eyes, and then heard Zhang Xin continue to say to him: "Mr. Ning, the top of the mountain is inaccessible by car, we need to walk up there."
"Then let's go."
Ning Beichen got out of the car and walked with Zhang Xin up the mountain along the winding stone steps. Occasionally, some sporadic gunshots could be heard. Zhang Xin probably tried his best to stop Chen Qiao this time.
"Has Chen Qiao not given up yet?"
Ning Beichen asked.
"He won't give up. I'm afraid he has guessed the purpose of our trip now. He won't kill me before I get the Daoyuan Heart Technique, because he doesn't know if my father has left anything behind.
hand."
Zhang Xin said to Ning Beichen.
"Then just ignore him."
Ning Beichen and Zhang Xin accelerated their march, and after about an hour, they arrived at a house on the top of the mountain.
This house is very old and dilapidated. Even the outer skin has fallen off. Some parts are covered with mountain vines, and a small part has collapsed due to disrepair. However, there is no problem with the main part.
The simple wooden door was locked with an ordinary copper lock, and the lock core was rusty, so it couldn't be opened even with a key.
In fact, there was no need to use the key at all. Zhang Xin went over and pushed gently, and the rotten wooden door collapsed.
The room was full of dust and cobwebs, but the layout of the house could be vaguely seen.
When Zhang Xin saw everything familiar in the house, she burst into tears and silently picked up the broom next to her and started sweeping.
Ning Beichen did not disturb her, but walked to the door and looked outside.
After a while, Ning Beichen frowned and saw a dozen men coming outside.
And Ning Beichen's eyes fell on one of these people.
If he read correctly, this person is Chen Qiao, because among these people, he has the highest cultivation level, but he has not broken through the master's cultivation level.
The people who came also looked at Ning Beichen, their eyes full of murderous intent.
Ning Beichen could see the cultivation of these people, but these people could not see Ning Beichen's cultivation. In their eyes, Ning Beichen was just an ordinary person without cultivation.
This is not because Ning Beichen's cultivation level is higher than theirs, but because Ning Beichen has a secret technique that can hide his own cultivation level.
As long as the opponent's cultivation level is not as high as his, they will not be able to see Ning Beichen's cultivation level.
The dozen or so people walked all the way to the courtyard. At this time, Zhang Xin, who was inside, also walked out. When she saw Chen Qiao, her whole body was trembling.
Not because of fear, but because of anger.
"My good senior sister, why didn't you inform your junior brother when you came back so that he could help you pick up the wind and wash away the dust?"
Chen Qiao looked at Zhang Xin and smiled like a weasel greeting a rooster for the New Year.
"I don't have the kind of junior brother who poisoned my master."
Zhang Xin said through gritted teeth.
"Senior sister, have you misunderstood me? How could I do such a thing?"
Chen Qiao would naturally not admit his murder of a master, because no matter how reasonable he was, no one could accept such a thing.
"Hmph! Misunderstanding, Chen Qiao, you know what you did, so what are you doing here?"
Zhang Xin suppressed the overwhelming anger in her heart. Until now, the people she arranged have not shown up. This can only mean one thing, that is, the people she arranged have been completely destroyed.
"Senior Sister, why is this necessary? After all, I am also Master's apprentice. When Senior Sister comes back, I naturally want to come over and see Senior Sister. However, I did not expect that Master, his old man, actually has an ancestral home here."
Chen Qiao said with a smile.
"Chen Qiao, you are not welcome in my home, get out of here!"
Zhang Xin said to him angrily.
"Senior sister, why are you so angry? After all, I am also the master's apprentice. The master's home is so dilapidated. How can I, an apprentice, tolerate it? Go and help my senior sister clean it up."
Chen Qiao ordered his men.
And what he calls cleaning is naturally to find things, not to actually go in and sweep the floor.
"There's no need for you to meddle in other people's business, get out of here!"
Zhang Xin's teeth clenched loudly. If she hadn't been unable to defeat him, Zhang Xin would have died with him long ago.
However, Chen Qiao ignored Zhang Xin at all and instead waved his men to forcefully enter. He would not even dare to poison his master, let alone Zhang Xin.
However, these people were blocked by Ning Beichen.
"Miss Zhang Xin told you to get out, didn't you wear your ears?"
Ning Beichen stood alone in front of a dozen people and said calmly.
