Returning to Jinghai Garden, as soon as I entered the door, I saw my mother Zhang Li coming out of the kitchen, carrying steaming meals, and the aroma hit her face.
Chen Dong's index finger twitched in an instant, and just as he was about to move over, he saw Su Qingcheng at the table glaring at him with a resentful look, while Lin Shishi on the side looked gloating, fearing that the world would not be in chaos.
"Come on, come on, Xiaodong, sit down quickly."
Zhang Li didn't notice the awkward atmosphere and asked Chen Dong to sit down. The latter scratched his head and had no choice but to sit down.
"Xiaodong, I mentioned to you before that your cousin and your aunt are coming to visit. The date has been set. It's tomorrow. I heard that your cousin has talked about someone. This time they are here to discuss marriage.
You will come with me when the time comes."
Hearing this, Chen Dong couldn't help but frown. His mother did mention that his cousin and the others were coming over before, but after such a long time, he didn't take it to heart.
Now that he heard that they were coming, Chen Dong felt a little uncomfortable. After all, when his mother was in a car accident and her life was in danger, when Chen Dong called them to borrow money, Zhang Ping not only did not lend it to him, but instead called him directly.
Blocked.
Now that her mother has recovered, she pretends to be fine and continues to contact her, and even tells her about marriage discussions. According to Chen Dong's understanding of the mother and daughter, they must have come here to show off again.
After all, according to experience, the mother and daughter will only take the initiative to contact them when they want to show off. Whenever they have something to show off, they will definitely contact their mother as soon as possible.
"Mom, forget it, I have something to do tomorrow." Chen Dong curled his lips, obviously unhappy. He was not as generous as his mother Zhang Li, but he remembered how cold and unfeeling his aunt Zhang Ping was.
"You kid, she is your aunt no matter what..."
Immediately afterwards, Zhang Li continued to express her thoughts to Chen Dong, leaving Chen Dong speechless. In the end, he couldn't win over his mother, so he had to compromise and agree. He had already decided to just pick them up.
Just as he was thinking about it, Su Qingcheng put down her chopsticks, glared at Chen Dong, and went back to the room.
"Is this... just a little bit of food?"
Zhang Li glanced at Su Qingcheng's bowl and found that she had only taken a small bite. She immediately said anxiously, "Xiaodong, why did your girlfriend eat so much? What if she collapses?"
He instantly realized something was wrong and glared at Lin Shishi with a dark face. He didn't need to think too much to know that it was this girl who was afraid of chaos in the world who said it.
"Mom, you misunderstood. Miss Su and I are just ordinary friends. Don't listen to people's lies." Chen Dong said helplessly.
"Ordinary friends?" When Zhang Li heard this, she immediately straightened her face and reprimanded, "Xiaodong, how can you say such things? Even if you are rich now, you can't always give up.
Miss Su is already pregnant with your child, how can you say such things, it will be so sad for the little girl to hear it."
The words fell.
Chen Dong, who had just wiped his mouth, squirted out again...
"Ahem, Mom, this is all a misunderstanding." Chen Dong said with a dark face, while glaring at Lin Shishi who was leaning forward and back with a smile. He wished he could strangle this stinky girl to death for fearing that the world would be in chaos. If not,
How could her mother know these things?
"What is a misunderstanding?"
When Zhang Li heard this, she immediately quit, slapping the table and accusing her, "Xiaodong, even if you are rich now, you can't give up all the time. Although mom also hopes that you can be with Jiaxi, Su
Since the young lady is already pregnant with your child, mom will not say anything else. You must be nice to Miss Su."
"Lin Shishi!"
Hearing his mother's rebuke, Chen Dong couldn't bear it anymore and glared at Lin Shishi with gritted teeth, "What the hell are you talking about?"
"Who, who is talking nonsense?" Faced with Chen Dong's question, Lin Shishi rolled her eyes, "You and Miss Su are already in that kind of relationship, aren't they? As for the pregnancy, I don't know that it's because of bad food.
My belly."
"This..." Chen Dong was speechless for a moment.
"What? A bad stomach?"
Hearing the conversation between the two, Zhang Li was stunned, "Miss Su is not pregnant?"
"Of course not." Chen Dong explained immediately. Hearing this, a look of disappointment flashed across Zhang Li's eyes, but she didn't say anything.
Back in the room, Chen Dong was wondering if he had to drive this girl Lin Shishi out. After all, three women had one drama, and Lin Shishi alone had three dramas!
This girl is worried about the world being in chaos all day long. If this continues, he will definitely be tricked to death by this girl.
But when he thought of Lin Shishi's current status in the eyes of his mother Zhang Li, Chen Dong felt a headache.
After a long time, Chen Dongfang calmed down. A hint of heat quietly flashed through his eyes, and he took out the spiritual jade he had received from Liu Ruyan.
Although this piece of spiritual jade is not big, only two fingers wide, and the whole body is milky white. As soon as I opened the box, a strong spiritual energy hit my face. Although this piece of spiritual jade is about the same size as the spiritual jade I got from Su Qingcheng,
But the spiritual energy was doubled.
"I don't know if I can completely absorb this piece of spiritual jade and break through all phenomena to the third level."
Chen Dong licked his lips and said excitedly. The last time he absorbed the spiritual jade he got from Su Qingcheng, his strength broke through to the second level. Internal energy was born in his body, and his strength was more than doubled.
According to what Lin Tianhu said, his current strength is that of a martial arts master. If he goes to the next level, he will be a martial arts master. He can reach the legendary state of inner strength leaving the body. At that time, he can kill people invisible with just a flip of his hand.
, and his strength is comparable to that of the God of War who protects the country, even the big families in the imperial capital will compete to win over him.
Thinking of this, Chen Dong couldn't help but get excited.
"Third floor, here I come!"
Taking a deep breath, Chen Dong grabbed the spiritual jade, and all the Taoism in his body was already running rapidly. In an instant, he felt a surging spiritual power pouring out of the spiritual jade, making him feel thirty thousand
Six thousand pores were stretched in an instant.
He had been practicing very hard during this period, but he didn't see any improvement. However, after just absorbing the spiritual jade for a moment, Chen Dong felt that the inner energy in his body was growing vigorously and nearly doubled in size.
"The speed of cultivation is so fast, just a moment is already equivalent to what I have been practicing for a week."
Having tasted the sweetness, Chen Dong accelerated his absorption of the spiritual jade, and abundant spiritual power poured into his body continuously, turning into his own strength.
After absorbing it for almost half an hour, Chen Dong trembled all over. The internal energy in his body had expanded tenfold. It used to be only the size of a fist, but now it was very large. He also felt this energy.
Both the size and intensity of internal energy have made a qualitative leap.
However, he also felt that this inner energy seemed to have reached its peak, and it did not continue to grow, and even began to tremble violently.
"What's going on?"
Unconsciously, Chen Dong's body was wet with sweat. He felt as if he had reached a bottleneck and his internal energy could not continue to improve. It seemed that he needed to break through a layer of shackles before he could continue to improve.
"Is this the bottleneck?"
Chen Dong suddenly remembered that in the inheritance of senior Yang Qing, there seemed to be a bottleneck in cultivation, just like between the first and second levels of Wanxiang Taoism. It was very difficult to break through, but after the breakthrough, the strength also increased.
There will be qualitative changes.
Is this going to break through the third level?
Thinking of this, Chen Dong absorbed the spiritual energy more quickly. As he absorbed it, the inner energy in his body began to tremble violently.
Finally, after practicing for a full hour, Chen Dong's whole body trembled violently, as if the shackles were broken, and a powerful momentum spread from Chen Dong's body...
