Thinking of the Qinglong Ancestor who fell into a deep sleep, Teng Fei's eyes narrowed slightly, and he didn't know when he would wake up.
I just received an invitation from the City Lord's Mansion. According to tradition, the City Lord's Mansion will hold a banquet for the upper class of Haiwei City during the New Year to spend the New Year together.
Teng Fei originally did not want to participate in this kind of activity because he has always hated the so-called upper class.
In fact, he had never participated in it, but suddenly thinking of that incident, Teng Fei decided to go see the Lord of Haiwei City and see with his own eyes what kind of person he was!
Teng Fei continued to sort out his experiences over the past year, and going out for training allowed him to truly start to grow up, from a boy to a man.
He saved the Yuren sisters twice, which can be regarded as a good relationship. Although he offended a possibly quite powerful force, Teng Fei did not regret it. From the moment Lu Ziling helped him transform his body, Teng Fei already had a good relationship.
Awareness of all difficulties.
Not to mention that it may not be easy for the other party to find out his identity, but the escaped Dou Zun knew that he owned a sacred weapon, the Phoenix Sword, which was a problem.
Teng Fei thought silently, remembering Tian Guang who handed him the Phoenix Sword, and a happy smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. Making a friend like Tian Guang should be regarded as his biggest gain after coming to the West Frontier!
I don’t know how Tian Guang is doing now, whether he has entered the battlefield outside the territory, or whether he will encounter any danger...
While Teng Fei stayed in the ancestral hall enshrining his parents' tombs and thought quietly, the interior of the Teng family in Teng's town was very quiet. Although there were lanterns and colorful decorations, there was not much New Year's atmosphere. The servants in the house,
He came and went quietly." He looked serious.
None of the younger generations of the Teng family have come back, which is what the old man Teng Wenxuan meant.
Teng Wenxuan has always reported good news but not bad news to the Western Frontier. In fact, the Teng family is now in the midst of internal and external troubles and many crises.
The battle outside Tengjia Town on the banks of the Mangdang River severely damaged the vitality of the eight major families in Qingping Prefecture. The three noble families of Qingyuan Prefecture, Fan Zhangli and others, also suffered heavy losses.
Although the Teng family was helpless for a while, the hatred had already been forged. With the intricate and powerful power of these families, there was no way they could let go of the Teng family so easily.
After Teng Fei left, these families began to suppress the Teng family. As a result, the Teng family's business was greatly affected, shrinking by at least half in the entire Qingyuan Prefecture.
Faced with all this, the old man Teng Wenxuan has always dealt with it calmly. Although the business has been affected and the family has been suppressed, the "golden road" has once again opened up "rich sources of wealth" so that the Teng family can continue to support it and does not need to rely too much on the business of the Zhenwu Dynasty.
For the old man, as long as the younger generation of the family can grow up safely, and as long as Teng Fei can gain a firm foothold in the Western Frontier, no matter how suppressed this side is, it will all be worth it.
At times like this, all they can do is to endure! No matter what kind of provocation, humiliation and suppression they face, they must endure it!
Things here must not bring heavy burdens and pressure to the younger generation of the Teng family who is studying in the imperial capital, and to Teng Fei who is far away in the west.
It's just that this kind of life is not easy. Only those who are experiencing it know how it feels.
There was a sound of footsteps outside, and the second master Teng Yunling knocked on the old man's door, walked in with a frown, and said softly: "Father, one of our shops in Qingyuan Prefecture has been suppressed to the point where it is almost impossible to continue operating.
People come to the door every day to cause trouble, and reporting it to the magistrate has no effect at all..."
Before Teng Yunling finished speaking, Teng Wenxuan waved his hand calmly and said: "It doesn't matter, close the door of the shop and withdraw people, as long as they are safe."
"That shop..." Teng Yunling hesitated a little, feeling very reluctant to part with it. The shop in Qingyuan City had been open for decades, and the business had always been very good. If it was closed like this, the loss would be really huge.
"It doesn't matter, the house deed and title are still in our hands. As long as our Teng family survives, no one can take it away from us!" Teng Wenxuan said solemnly, then looked at Teng Yunling: "Remember, we need it now
What we do is to do everything we can to preserve this family. Everything else will be settled when Fei'er returns in two years!"
Although Teng Yunling also had great confidence in Teng Fei, he was not as confident as the old man. However, since the old man had said this, he could only nod to express his understanding.
When Teng Yunling was about to leave, the old man stopped him: "Tell the accountant that everyone in the family will be given a big red envelope. In the new year, they will have a new look. Tell them that all suffering will pass!"
Teng Yunling nodded silently and left.
The old man sat quietly on the chair, his eyes were deep, but he looked much older than before. No one knew how much pressure the old man, the head of the Teng family, had endured for this family.
The Eight Great Families and the three noble families of Fan and Zhangli are pressing forward step by step. Their real purpose is to destroy the entire Teng Family and then divide the Teng Family's huge industry!
The old man knew these things very well in his heart. While he was strategizing, on the other hand, he could only place most of his hopes on Teng Fei.
"I heard that this kid is doing pretty well over there in the West Frontier. You guys, second and third, really can't blame anyone else!" Teng Wenxuan whispered to himself, then let out a long sigh, and a trace of sadness flashed deep in his eyes.
When the clock strikes midnight, New Year arrives, and Teng Fei becomes one year older.
Looking at myself in the mirror, with sharp eyebrows and starry eyes, after the transformation of my body, I am no longer as thin as before.
Teng Fei was filled with emotions as he was a Level 3 True Essence Martial Saint and a Level 3 Fighting Master.
Less than a year ago, he was still an incompetent boy from the Teng family who was laughed at. A year later, he has undergone earth-shaking changes.
Teng Fei knew in his heart that he was not a martial arts genius. What he achieved today was entirely because of the woman who gave his life for her! If Lu Ziling hadn't used the red blood dragon blood to change his physique, then Teng Fei would still be the same now.
He is still the little loser who is looked down upon by others.
Teng Fei now also knows that when he transformed his body, he gained more benefits because of the existence of the Qinglong Ancestor.
If the Green Snake King fails to seize the body, it can only make Teng Fei stronger, so that it can have hope of escaping. Therefore, without the help of the blame snake king, a super monster that failed to overcome the tribulation, Teng Fei's body will also have
It is impossible for those seven naturally opened fighting meridians to appear.
Teng Fei was wary of this arrogant and domineering snake, the Green Snake King, from the beginning to now feeling that without this snake, he would not have been able to escape the pursuit of the Dou Zun from the Blackwater Demon Palace.
Even if he had that holy weapon, with his current strength, he wouldn't be able to use it at all.
Not to mention the magical eight-part Tianlong Jue, which was also brought to him by the Green Snake King.
Teng Fei has already had his first glimpse of the Garuda chapter in the Eight Heavenly Dragon Art, and already has an advantage that others cannot match in terms of speed.
Now Teng Fei has begun to practice the Dragon Art of the Eight Heavenly Dragon Art, and has reached the wood-skin realm, with his defensive ability far stronger than that of ordinary warriors of the same level.
All this seems to be good luck, but in fact, Teng Fei doesn't know how long he can live.
Five years? Or ten years? So every moment, Teng Fei was practicing very hard, and he put in much more sweat than others.
Lu Ziling had already said when he changed his physique that unless he could open up more than forty-nine fighting meridians, he could eliminate the influence of the red blood dragon's blood on his body. Otherwise, his lifespan would not exceed ten years.
Teng Fei thought it was not difficult at first. He had naturally opened seven Dou Mei and possessed the Fifty Dou Veins of Heaven. Now he had opened six and had thirteen Dou Mei in his body.
But Teng Fei has discovered that the Dou Mei is more difficult to open the further back he goes. Just like now, he wants to open the seventh Dou Mei in the fifty Dou Mei Dafa to open the way to heaven, but he has not been able to succeed until today.
It is always at the most critical moment that the success falls short. Therefore, if you want to open up all the Dou Mei in the Fifty Dou Mei Dafa to open up the Heavenly Dao, there is still a long way to go.
Teng Fei sighed softly, and his eyes gradually became determined. In the past, he never gave up, so now, he will not give up even more!
If the road in front of you is blocked, blast it open!
"Hey, what are you still dawdling about? Aren't we going to hold a banquet?" Ling Shishi's voice, as clear as a lark, sounded outside the door.
Maybe she had figured it out, or maybe she didn't want to be discovered, so Ling Shishi returned to her little witch side. After knowing that Teng Fei was going to attend the banquet hosted by the Lord of Haiwei City, she actively helped Teng Fei prepare for the banquet. The dress I needed was finally delivered.
Teng Fei opened the door and saw Ling Shishi coming in with a pile of gorgeous clothes. He frowned slightly and said, "You don't need these flashy things, do you?"
"What does it mean to be flashy?"
Ling Shishi rolled her eyes at Teng Fei and said, "Sister, I'm telling you, your idea is wrong!
You have to understand that this is a gathering of the city's upper class, and if you dress too casually, you will be laughed at."
"Mocking?" Teng Fei smiled casually. He had been laughed at for more than ten years. What kind of ridicule had he not seen? Speaking of which, he really didn't care about the ridicule of the so-called nobles.
"Don't take it seriously. Let me tell you, the dress and etiquette of the upper class are all very particular. You can ignore those people or ignore the etiquette. You can even think about those hypocritical people. You One kick can knock away a hundred of them." Ling Shishi gestured at Teng Fei with her clothes while muttering in her mouth.
"Isn't it?" Teng Fei looked at Ling Shishi expressionlessly.
"Of course not! First of all, if you want to gain a foothold here, even temporarily, you have to integrate into this city. They don't need to like you, but you can't make everyone hate you!"
Ling Shishi said with a serious face: "Otherwise, your family will be looked down upon, and your business will also be suppressed."@.
