Zeng Susu lay on the bed, tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep.
During these days, she had become accustomed to his presence. When she suddenly heard that he was leaving, she felt indescribably disappointed, as if she had lost her soul.
She stood up, put on a coat, and walked out of the room.
Outside, the moonlight was like water, penetrating through the bamboo trees and revealing mottled black shadows on the grass.
Zeng Susu raised her head and glanced at the wooden house in the distance, where Nie Feng lived.
She wanted to walk there several times, but finally sighed, turned around and walked in the opposite direction.
"Susu, haven't you slept yet?" came a familiar voice.
Zeng Susu turned around and found Zeng Zhan standing behind her, looking at her lovingly.
"Second uncle..."
Zeng Susu felt sad for no reason.
My second uncle is the best to me. He has been ill for decades, but he has never given up on me. He is the most important person to me.
Nie Feng is just a passer-by in his life. No matter how tempting he is, the two of them can't be together.
Zeng Zhan looked at her and sighed.
When they were drinking just now, from her reaction, no matter how stupid he was, he could tell that Zeng Susu was tempted.
Obviously, Nie Feng only regarded her as his friend or sister, and there was no word of love at all.
"Why haven't you slept yet?" Zeng Zhan asked.
"I can't sleep. Maybe I slept too much during the day." After Zeng Susu finished speaking, she asked him: "Second uncle, why haven't you fallen asleep yet? You drank a lot of wine. Go to bed early! I'm fine now. I don't need you.
Worry."
"People are fine, but their hearts are troubled." Zeng Zhan said with a smile.
"Second uncle, what are you talking about? I'm fine, but I'm worried about something." Zeng Susu blushed a little, pretending not to know.
"Although Second Uncle is not married in this life, he is not a fool either. Your thoughts are written on your face." Zeng Zhan laughed loudly: "No wonder, I have seen countless monks like Nie Feng in my life.
I have never seen many men who are talented, intelligent, affectionate and righteous. If I were a woman, I would be attracted to him!"
Zeng Susu's face immediately turned crimson. She was brought up by her second uncle. How could she hide what she was worried about from him?
"Nie Feng has a high ambition. I am just an ordinary woman, how can I be worthy of him? I was tortured by the disease and wasted decades. I don't know if I will ever have the chance to enter the Nascent Soul stage.
"Zeng Susu sighed quietly.
"Su Su, you must not have such thoughts. In terms of status, Nie Feng is not worthy of you!" Zeng Zhan said proudly.
"Second uncle, although our Zeng family is very powerful in Datong City, I think Nie Feng will surpass the Zeng family sooner or later..."
"What does the Zeng family mean? If he can't even surpass the Zeng family, how dare he be called an extraordinary talent?"
"Second uncle, what do you mean by this? Why do I feel like there is something in your words?" Zeng Susu asked puzzledly.
"I will tell you when the time is right." Zeng Zhan patted her shoulder and said seriously: "In a word, you must live a good life and don't belittle yourself. There is no one you are not worthy of."
After Zeng Zhan finished speaking, he touched her hair lovingly, turned around and left, preparing to go back to his room.
Just after taking two steps, he suddenly stopped and stared into the air, his eyes widening.
"Now that you're here, come out, don't hide your head and show your tail." Zeng Zhan shouted loudly into the air.
In the originally empty night sky, three figures suddenly appeared.
There are two men and one woman. The first man looks about forty years old, with a pointed chin, a hooked nose, and a mustache. The man next to him looks similar to him, and looks about thirty years old. The last woman is
, is very tall, more than 1.75 meters tall. Standing next to the young man, he is about the same height.
"Who are you, and why are you here at Zeng's house?" Zeng Zhan asked calmly.
"Wan Jinqiu, Canglan Ancient Kingdom, Commander of the Imperial City Guards." The leading man said proudly.
"In the ancient Canglan country, why do you have to go all the way to Zeng's family, the ancestor of the Great Qin Empire?" Zeng Zhan asked.
The young man glanced at Zeng Susu next to him and said to Wan Jinqiu: "Dad, it must be her, she looks very similar."
"Uncle Wan, I'll catch her."
The figure of the tall woman disappeared on the spot with a swish. The next moment, she was behind Zeng Zhan, and a phantom with big claws grabbed out.
"This is the Qin Empire. How can we allow you to come and retreat?"
Zeng Zhan snorted coldly, grabbed Zeng Susu and punched her out.
A huge fist that seemed to have materialized hit the woman directly.
Boom!
With a loud noise, two drums of vitality exploded in mid-air, and the entire Zeng family was immediately destroyed.
Dozens of figures rose into the sky and fell into the air.
Two Nascent Soul cultivators, even with a slight wave of their hands, the entire courtyard would be destroyed.
Zeng Zhan's punch was so fierce that it sent the tall woman flying straight away.
"Fang Mei, are you okay?" Wan Shihao's figure flashed and he supported her in mid-air.
"I'm fine." Fang Mei shook her head and said, "This guy is not simple, don't be careless."
"No matter how powerful you are, can you stop my father?" Wan Shihao snorted coldly, looking unconcerned.
At this moment, in mid-air, more than a dozen figures landed next to Zeng Zhan. In addition to Zeng Hao, Mrs. Zeng and Ye Xiong, there were also a group of guards.
"Second brother, who are these people and what do they want to do?" Zeng Hao shouted angrily.
After all, the Zeng family is one of the most famous families in Datong City. Now that someone has stepped on their doorstep and ruined their younger brother, how can they let go of their reputation?
"They are from the Canglan Ancient Country." Zeng Zhan replied.
"Canglan Ancient Country?" Zeng Hao said with a puzzled look on his face: "Canglan Ancient Country is far away from here, separated by countless star fields, and it will not be reached within a few years. What are they doing here?"
"Then I have to ask your good brother Zeng Zhan." Wan Jinqiu snorted coldly and said: "Zeng Zhan, if you are wise enough to hand over the Ninth Princess obediently, otherwise, don't blame us for being rude."
"Who is the Ninth Princess?" Zeng Hao looked confused, his eyes fell on Zeng Susu, and his face changed slightly.
Zeng Susu was obviously the daughter brought here by the madam and remarried to me. How could she be some kind of ninth princess?
"Madam, what is going on?" Zeng Hao's eyes fell on his wife.
Mrs. Zeng glanced at Zeng Zhan, but hesitated and did not reply.
"Meng Chunhua, you don't dare to say it, let me help you." Wan Jinqiu took two steps forward and said: "Eighty years ago, the emperor of the ancient Canglan Kingdom disappeared, and the empire was in civil strife. In order to seize power, six princes, the emperor
The city was in chaos. Meng Chunhua was originally a maid of the Queen. After the civil war, she took the newborn Ninth Princess, led by a guard captain from the Imperial City, to escape from the Imperial City and disappeared... Now the third prince has succeeded
Ascended to the throne, you have specially ordered me to come and take the Ninth Princess back."
