The breeze blows away, blowing away the prosperity of the world; the sound of spring water touches the bitter end of life.
In a remote wooden house, an old and somewhat frail woman said: "Chen'er, don't be so impulsive in the future, you know? After all, we are all members of the Nie family. Although they are unkind, you cannot be unjust.
! Just teach the world a lesson."
Nie Chenfeng looked at Nie's mother with some doubts and said, "But... they actually insulted my mother and looked down on my father. Can this be tolerated?"
Mother Nie frowned and said: "Chen'er, I happened to meet your father when I was seriously injured. Your father was a very good man and we were in love with each other, so we got married. But I come from a mysterious place. Your father died
Later, they treated us mother and son badly, and it’s no wonder that the Nie family members are there. Mother’s days are numbered, and if she’s gone, you have to live well, you know?”
Nie Chenfeng felt sad for a while, and actually started crying while hugging Nie's mother who was lying on the bed.
"Mother, Chen'er will not let you die, wuwuwu..."
No matter how tough Nie Chenfeng was, he still couldn't help but feel sad when he saw his mother getting weaker day by day.
Tiger's courage lasted only one month, but because of Huang Jie's tiger's courage, Mother Nie was able to survive until now, and she obviously couldn't hold on much longer.
Yanxuxue next to her saw this scene, her eyes were a little misty, and she understood something.
The very next day, the third uncle came to Nie Chenfeng's side yard again, frowned and said: "Chenfeng, the clan leader asked you to come over and said that he wanted to bring Yan Xuxue with him. It seems that there is trouble!"
After hearing this, Nie Chenfeng wanted not to go, but it was impossible to disobey the clan leader's order, so he reluctantly said goodbye to his mother and followed his third uncle with Yan Xuxue.
Along the way, Xue'er was very well-behaved and chatted happily with Nie Chenfeng, but little did she know that a disaster was about to come.
"Morning Feng, don't worry too much. Haha, with Third Uncle here, I think my eldest brother won't make things too difficult for you two. But the matter of Shi Shui..." Third Uncle hesitated.
"It's nothing. The worst I can do is think about Guo Ya again." Nie Chenfeng curled his lips and said, "I'm used to it anyway."
After a while, the three of them arrived at the lobby of the Nie family.
The Nie Clan's hall is very splendid, several feet tall, with dragon carvings all over the outside.
Two stone unicorns are on the left and right sides of the gate, and they are impressive.
As soon as he entered the lobby, Nie Chenfeng saw several elders and the fat man Nie Shishui with a swollen face, staring at him fiercely, his eyes nakedly scratching the smoke and snow next to him.
Above the lobby, a middle-aged man in gorgeous clothes turned his back to everyone, and his terrifying pressure shocked everyone. This man was obviously Nie Zhenyu, the leader of the royal clan.
Facing the strange looks from the elders and young powerful men, Nie Chenfeng took it for granted and took Yan Xuxue's jade hand directly to the center of the hall.
"Huh? Where did this boy bring this girl back from? I heard that he has been to the Colorful Mountains?" an elder said to the old woman next to him.
"The old woman doesn't believe it. How is it possible? This woman must be a spy sent by other families to find out the important secrets of my Nie family. The Colorful Mountains is a forbidden area. Can this kid come back alive with his cultivation?"
"That's right, this kid has disgraced the family. He is the son of a concubine that his unsatisfactory father married! Humph! Just kick him out of the Nie family, otherwise it will only cause chaos!"
After hearing these harsh words, Nie Chenfeng tried hard to suppress the anger in his heart, but Yan Xuxue beside him frowned lightly, holding Nie Chenfeng's hand with her left hand, and whispered: "Brother Chenfeng, it's Xue'er.
I’m hurting you!”
"Haha, let them go, Xue'er is not wrong, and you are not a spy!" He looked at her who was already sensible and said softly.
At this moment, the clan leader on the high platform finally turned around.
He coughed and glared at Nie Chenfeng with sharp eyes on his face. Everyone did not dare to make eye contact with him and remained silent. His piercing eyes flickered across Nie Chenfeng and Yan Xuxue's bodies.
Go, even, under this gaze, Nie Chenfeng's whole body still hurt like fire.
"Hmph! Chenfeng, is this the troubled woman you brought back?" Clan leader Nie Zhenyu finally spoke, and his loud voice rang in Nie Chenfeng's ears.
"Clan leader, her name is Yanxuxue, she was brought back from the Colorful Mountains by me." His blood boiled, he forced himself to hold back the feeling of kneeling on his knees, and said in a neither humble nor arrogant tone.
"Bastard! Do you think I will believe you when you say this?" As Nie Zhenyu shouted angrily, the air in the entire lobby condensed.
"Even I don't dare to enter the Colorful Mountains at will, let alone you? Tell me honestly! Have you colluded with other families to murder us?"
"Master Patriarch, I, Chenfeng, am loyal to the Nie family and have never had any thoughts of rebellion, and I did bring Xue'er back from there!" Nie Chenfeng said without changing his expression.
"Hahaha, boy, I won't talk about it for now, but why does this woman keep wearing a veil? Is she not doing anything wrong and is she still afraid of seeing others?" Nie Zhenyu, the patriarch, asked doubtfully. As a king, he couldn't see through it.
This woman.
Nie Chenfeng looked a little unhappy when he heard that, and explained: "This is a habit of Xue'er, I hope uncle can understand!"
Yan Xuxue next to him heard the sound and looked at Nie Chenfeng with some hesitation.
"Boy, don't do this. I know that you are the most evil person. Yesterday, I hurt Shi Shui for no reason. If your mother hadn't stopped me quickly, I'm afraid Shi Shui would have died in your hands. You know
, He is your eldest brother!" Nie Zhenyu looked at Nie Chenfeng in the hall with some mockery, his eyes full of disdain and disgust.
"Also, this woman has actually practiced cultivation, and her physique is not ordinary. How can we not make people suspicious? Humph! The secret of the treasure sword has been leaked, and now the entire vast continent is boiling. My Nie family is in danger, you have a way to make me believe you.
?"
Seeing that if he was not careful, Nie Chenfeng would be executed on the spot by the clan leader. Nie Zhenxing, who was standing next to Nie Zhenyu, finally spoke: "Brother, this child Chenfeng has always been obedient, and this woman is also very simple. I guess she won't
He is the one who leaked the secret! I hope my brother will let these two people go!"
"Huh, third child, it's all your fault. If you hadn't contracted with Nie Zhentian to protect this kid, I would have expelled him long ago. This time, the Nie clan is in danger, and it must be related to this kid leaking secrets!
"Nie Zhenyu roared without any doubt, looking at his third brother angrily.
At this moment, Nie Shishui, who had been silent all this time, turned his eyes and suddenly stood up and said: "Father, Shishui has a good way to prove whether these two people are collaborating with the enemy or not!"
"Huh? Then tell me!" Nie Zhenyu couldn't help but turn to him when he heard that his child had a solution.
Hearing this, everyone's eyes turned towards the fat Nie Shishui.
"My child means that I want to marry this woman in white!"
"What?" Everyone couldn't help but widen their eyes.
"Listen to my explanation!" Nie Shishui continued: "If this woman is a spy, she will definitely rebel. If not, who in the world would refuse such a good thing? And this can also prove the innocence of Brother Chenfeng.
Of course, even if she is a spy, how could she not be discovered after a long time with the resourcefulness of a child?"
"I hope my father agrees. My son is willing to lead the way!" Nie Shishui said impassionedly, as if "If I don't go to hell, who will?" He really deserves a beating.
Nie Chenfeng was furious when he heard this. He never thought that this fat man would marry Yan Xuxue.
His eyes were bloodshot, and he impulsively took off the broad knife from his back, slashed at Nie Shishui, and roared: "Damn fat man, I'm going to kill you!!!"
"Asshole!"
Suddenly, a terrifying roar came out, and the clan leader on the high platform pressed his index finger, then magnified it and pressed down on the furious Nie Chenfeng.
The space suddenly sunk and then shattered, and Nie Chenfeng was pinned to the ground by this huge finger and could not move. Blood spilled from the corner of his mouth and his internal organs were injured.
"Brother, please be merciful!"
The third uncle next to him saw that something was wrong and quickly swung his palm, but he could barely block the clan leader's blow.
Nie Zhentian glared at him, snorted coldly, and finally withdrew his vast mana.
"Everyone has seen that this boy's devilish nature is hard to change and his wild nature is untamable. I will punish him by having to think about walking over a cliff for a year! As for this woman, just do as Shi Shui said, and the wedding banquet will be held in seven days."
Nie Zhenyu glanced at Nie Chenfeng coldly, and then continued: "I am afraid that time will not wait for me. Those practitioners have been ready to make a move. Our Nie family is in danger, and we need a wedding banquet to counteract the evil spirit!"
Yan Xuxue on the side quickly helped Nie Chenfeng up, her eyes full of worry, not caring that someone else's few words had already decided her life-long events. Maybe she didn't understand, maybe she didn't care.
"Brother Chenfeng, are you okay?" Yan Xuxue said with some distress.
Nie Chenfeng, who was seriously injured, ignored Yi Ren's words and kept shouting: "Chief, you can't do this!"
"It can't be like this..." However, everything is out of his control!
Seeing this, all the elders were indifferent and started talking about it. They even said: "The wise nephew Shi Shui did this. He is really brave and resourceful and understands the righteousness. He will definitely be able to follow the path of the king in the future!"
"I have long thought that this little devil should be expelled from the family. The patriarch is too kind!"
"That's not true. If he hadn't taken a fancy to the talent of this Morrowind little devil, the clan leader would have killed him long ago!"
"Oh, it was all his father who caused the trouble. He didn't listen to us and insisted on marrying that mysterious woman. It would be better if he died, leaving us with so much trouble."
After a long time, everyone dispersed, leaving Nie Chenfeng alone in the lobby wailing: "Clan leader, you can't do this!!!"
Yanxuxue next to her saw Nie Chenfeng, who was lying on the ground with bleeding from the corner of his mouth, so sad and angry, and she lay on top of him and started sobbing.
"Brother Chenfeng, it's Xue'er's fault. Xue'er shouldn't have followed brother Chenfeng. They are all bad people. Xue'er hates them, hates them! Wuwuwu..."
He calmed down, looked at the woman in front of him, gently stroked her hair and said softly: "It's not Xue'er's fault, it's not your fault, please let me think about it, think about it."
At this moment, Nie Zhen, who was standing not far away, walked over and handed Yan Xuxue a pill and asked her to take it for him.
"Chenfeng, you have to endure what ordinary people cannot bear and do what ordinary people cannot do." The third uncle looked deeply at Nie Chenfeng, who was seriously injured on the ground, and said with some meaning: "You have to stand bravely even if you have to carry the knife.
