Looking towards the door, I saw a middle-aged man striding towards me.
At first glance, he does look somewhat similar to Zhan Dengping, especially between his eyebrows, there is a touch of heroic spirit unique to the Zhan family.
But obviously, this person feels more gloomy and cold. Although there is a smile on his face, there is no trace of smile in the depths of his eyes.
"Oh? My dear nephew, is this the guest who came to visit you?"
Zhan Kang strode in, as if he were the master of the Zhan family. He did not take Zhan Denping, the first heir, into consideration at all. He sat unceremoniously on the main seat in the side hall, with the attitude that he was the master.
A trace of anger appeared on Zhan Denping's face!
While Zhan Kang was sizing up Li Ye, Li Ye was also sizing up this person.
"Zhan Dengping's third uncle? I've never seen him before."
"Master, this person is not simple!"
"I know that although he tries his best to hide it, his cultivation level is at least at the peak of the Earth Master Realm or even the Heavenly Master Realm."
This made Li Ye feel even more weird. When did the Zhan family have such a master?
The peak of the Earth Master Realm or even the Heavenly Master Realm? This level of cultivation is enough to make the Zhan family the dominant family in the Southwest Star Territory! Second only to the original Tianwaitian! It has steadily suppressed the three major sects and become a well-deserved overlord!
But the Zhan family doesn’t have it!
This was what made him curious.
"My dear nephew, why don't you introduce this friend of yours to your third uncle?"
Zhan Kang had been smiling but not smiling since he came in. He looked up and down Li Ye, but what shocked him was that he couldn't see through the depth of the skinny young man in front of him.
"Oh? This person doesn't look simple!"
Calmly, the corners of Zhan Kang's mouth raised slightly. He was no longer the same person as before, especially now, he has huge confidence.
The Zhan family is just the first step in his return! Step by step, he will realize his ambitions that he could not realize back then!
"I've met Third Master."
Li Ye slightly cupped his hands, and his attitude was consistent. He was neither too humble nor too arrogant.
But that expression didn't seem too cold to the third master of the Zhan family.
A flash of anger flashed through Zhan Kang's eyes, but he did not get angry. He just sneered and looked at his nephew, "What's wrong, nephew? Don't you want to introduce your friend to your third uncle?"
No one knew when Zhan Kang came. It looked like a conversation between uncle and nephew, but Li Ye noticed a hint of gunpowder from the tone and the atmosphere between the two of them.
After hesitating for a while, Zhan Dengping glanced at Li Ye, but also said coldly, "Zhan Kang, I don't seem to have any obligation to tell you about any friends I make, right?"
"presumptuous!"
Bang!
With a crisp sound, the entire table and chairs shattered!
Zhan Kang stood up directly and said, "Zhan Dengping! It seems that you have forgotten the Zhan family's house rules over the years. Would you like my third uncle to demonstrate it to you personally now?"
House rules!
Zhan Dengping's eyes flashed and his lips moved, "Thank you to Third Uncle for your kindness. Of course my nephew remembers the family rules! But he doesn't remember when Third Uncle became the patriarch?"
Seeing that the atmosphere between the two was quite tense, Li Ye frowned.
"Something really happened in the Zhan family."
I came to the Zhan family just on a whim, but I didn't expect that the Zhan family is now in a troubled time.
The expression on Zhan Kang's face changed several times, and then he smiled sinisterly and looked at Li Ye, "Young man, the Zhan family welcomes friends from all walks of life, but does not welcome those who come to make trouble. Please do your own thing!"
Warning! Or threat!
It's a pity that Li Ye just looked at it indifferently and remained indifferent.
With a cold snort, Zhan Kang waved his sleeves and left.
Finally, the atmosphere in the side hall calmed down. Zhan Dengping also glanced at it. After seeing no one, he nodded slightly to Li Ye, "Since we are here at Zhan's house, we are all guests. Brother, you can rest at my Zhan's house these days."
After saying that, Zhan Dengping shouted outside, "Uncle Quan, take this young man to the guest room courtyard."
"Yes! Young Master!"
An old servant of the Zhan family took Li Ye to a unique courtyard of the Zhan family and then left.
After taking a look, this small courtyard has an elegant environment.
"Master, it seems that the Zhan family is not in peace."
"Well, I can see it."
The man who claimed to be the third master of the Zhan family and the third uncle Zhan Dengping flashed through his mind. Obviously, the strange atmosphere in the Zhan family now has something to do with this man.
"Does the master want to intervene?"
"Let's take a look first. My identity is sensitive now. If someone discovers it, the Zhan family will definitely be implicated."
Even though he said this, Li Ye also planned to stand by and watch.
Especially after seeing that Zhan Kang's cultivation level is completely unmatched by the rest of the Zhan family. If he didn't intervene, no one in the entire Zhan family could resist.
Two years later, the Zhan family has changed a lot.
Li Ye did not reveal his identity. On the other side, although Zhan Dengping had some guesses, he was not sure.
"Is it him?"
"I'm not sure. I feel it's him. But if it's him, there must be some reason why he doesn't reveal his identity now."
Zhan Dengping and Lu Fengye, now considered the leaders of the younger generation of the Zhan family, were gathered together with worries on their faces.
"That's right. There are rumors in the outside world that the six major sects in Tianwaitian have joined forces to wipe out all the sects, and the six major sects have also made noises to kill them all. If that person is him, it is normal to conceal his identity now."
Thinking of the rumors from the past few days, the two of them felt worried.
"Oh, I didn't expect that so many things have happened in just a few years. Even Tianwaitian, an ancient sect that has been inherited for more than ten thousand years, has become a passing thing. I really don't know if it is the rhythm before the storm is coming."
"Why do you think so much? Although the Zhan family has some say in the Southwest Star Territory, it has not yet come into the sight of the big shots in the Eighteen Star Territories of the Star Sea. If the sky falls, the taller ones will bear it."
"That's all I can think of, it's just..."
"Your third uncle?"
"Well, I always feel that when he comes back this time, he is not just trying to win over everything he lost back then."
A trace of sadness flashed across Zhan Denping's face, and Lu Fengye's expression changed. At this time, the two of them couldn't help but lower their voices, "Do you mean, is it related to the six major sects?"
Shaking his head, Zhan Denping smiled bitterly, "I hope I'm over-worrying. I just don't want the Zhan family to be involved in the struggle between the big forces above and be shattered to pieces."
While the two were communicating privately, they were on the other side of Zhan's house.
"Third Master?"
"Go and investigate the person who came today!"
"The third master suspects that he is the helper invited from over there?"
A look of ferociousness flashed across Zhan Kang's face, "Help? They don't think they can afford to invite anyone over."
"Don't worry, Third Master, I will handle it right away!"

Many thanks to book friend "Don't Force Me" for the reward of 10,000 book coins, and book friend "Mengshan Yishuai" for the reward of 588 book coins.
In addition, some book friends came to me in the past two days and asked, why hasn’t it exploded recently? Is it updated three times a day?
Let me explain here. I have been saving manuscripts recently because I will be on a business trip to Xi'an from the 19th to the 27th in the second half of this month. It is impossible to update the code in these seven or eight days, so for the sake of all book friends, I will not
You will find that this book has been updated suddenly. At the same time, in order to maintain full attendance, I have been working hard to save manuscripts recently.
Of course, some people will definitely scold you. If you don’t understand, I really can’t do anything about it. I hope you can forgive me.
