Battle Through the Heavens: I Am the Righteous Path

Mitre Chamber of Commerce, Midstate Chapter.

Mittel Tengshan, the patriarch of the Mittel family, sat leisurely on the sofa, shaking the wine glass in his hand very comfortably, with a look of comfort on his face, while Hai Bodong was lying on the sofa opposite him, eating an apple as usual.

"It's unimaginable that I would have the opportunity to bring the Mittel family's assets to Zhongzhou in my lifetime. Tsk tsk tsk~~~"

Teng Shan smacked his lips with emotion. He once relied on his identity as a businessman to become the top star of the Gama Empire in the northwest continent. In his mind, it was the highlight of his life. He never expected that he would be able to jump directly to Zhongzhou and gain a foothold in just over a decade. Teng Shan did not even dare to do so in his daydreams.

"Hai Bodong, it's all thanks to you and Ya Fei that the Miter family has achieved this. This life is worth it. You two have such good vision, don't you?"

There is no doubt that Mitel's current development is certainly due to Ya Fei's business talent, but more importantly, it is Hai Bodong and Ya Fei's firm support for Xiao Yan that has enabled him to achieve such success. Teng Shan could never have imagined that the upright and foolish boy could have his current status.

"Hmph, not bad."

Compared to Tengshan's sigh, Hai Bodong was chewing his apple nonchalantly, not taking Tengshan's words to heart at all.

Before, Hai Bodong had been helping Xiao Yan as a mediator for the Tianhe Alliance, but the past two years have been too peaceful, and there has been basically no need for him to appear. Even Yao Tianhuo and Xiao Xuan have made an appointment to travel around the continent. Hai Bodong is a little anxious because he is idle every day. Today, he was so bored that he ran to the Mitre family's branch in Zhongzhou to chat with Teng Shan. As a result, Teng Shan has been sighing until now, and Hai Bodong is too lazy to respond.

"If you want to spend your free time lamenting that kid, you might as well find a way to restore my original body. Do you really want me to live my whole life in a tiny body?"

“Isn’t this cute?”

"Get out of here!"

Hearing Tengshan's muttering, Hai Bodong angrily smashed the apple directly on Tengshan's head. Of course, he restrained his strength, otherwise, with the difference in strength between the two, Tengshan would not only have a big bump on his forehead, but his head would have exploded.

Tengshan rubbed his forehead speechlessly. Just as he was about to say something, a hearty laugh suddenly sounded outside the door.

"Hahahaha! Hai Bodong, just accept your fate. This is how your life will be~"

As the voice came in, the office door was pushed open violently, and an old man with an upright figure appeared in the sight of the two, causing Hai Bodong to frown slightly.

Jia Ma Empire, Jia Xingtian.

"No? Forget about Tengshan. Why did you come here? Doesn't the Gama Empire care?"

"It's okay, it's okay. I'll leave it to General Nalan. He's been retired for so many years, and he's been living a carefree life these years. It's time for him to take over for an old man like me."

Hai Bodong was slightly stunned when he heard Jia Xingtian's words.

"Hmm? Nalan Jie is taking over? Shouldn't it be Xiao Jing?"

Hai Bodong knew that when Yao Ye was still in the Black Horn Region, Xing Tian had always hoped that Yao Ye would return to take over his job. However, when he learned that Yao Ye had followed Xiao Yan to Zhongzhou, he completely gave up the idea. Judging from the situation, this girl would most likely not go back, and then he would rack his brains every day to pass the position to Xiao Ji.

His brother is already so powerful and so powerful, whether he wants to rule the Gama Empire or not is just a matter of words, why do you have to hold on to the title of the ruler of the Gama Empire? It would be better to just do him a favor and be happy and free.

But unfortunately, Xiao Ji didn't really want this favor. Although he was capable enough, Xiao Ji never wanted to be in a leadership position.

At this moment, a graceful figure stood out from behind Jia Xingtian and bowed to Hai Bodong in greeting.

"Senior Hai Bodong, long time no see."

This woman was none other than Xiao Yan's elder sister, Xiao Ji, the imperial preceptor of the Jia Ma Empire, which surprised Hai Bodong.

"You're coming too?"

"Well, Yan'er hasn't been back home in the past few years, so I came to see him on behalf of my father." Xiao Yu glanced at Jia Xingtian, "Also, I came here to supervise Jia Lao, to prevent him from not going back after he comes."

"."

Jia Xingtian's expression, which had just been good, suddenly turned dull, and he stared at Xiao Wei with resentment.

As the national teacher, Xiao Ji's power over Jia Xingtian became stronger and stronger. Even Yao Ye and Yao Yue had never treated Jia Xingtian like this.

"Hahaha~ Have fun here for two days and then go back to work. You'll stay in that position for the rest of your life, don't even think about running away." Hai Bodong laughed at Jia Xingtian wantonly, then lay down on the sofa and looked up at his back, "And you, just come on, openly, why are you hiding behind me?"

"I just wanted to scare you, but it seems I didn't succeed."

The person who said this was Yunshan, the old leader of the Yunlan Sect, or the current leader. After all, since Yun Yun followed Xiao Yan to Zhongzhou, it is basically equivalent to stepping down as the leader. The Yunlan Sect is fully managed by Yunshan, and he and Jia Xingtian are also brothers in distress. It is really sad that two people of such old age cannot step down.

"That girl Yun Yun is really heartless. She didn't even come back to see me in the past few years. I came here to relax and question her."

Yunshan said this and sat on the sofa. Jia Xingtian also sat opposite him, and Xiao Ji stood aside.

Leaning on the sofa, Jia Xingtian looked at the scenery outside the window, his expression full of emotion.

"It's really unpredictable. We actually have the opportunity to gather together in Zhongzhou in this lifetime. Xiao Yan is really amazing."

"Alright, alright! I'm almost sick of hearing your sentiments from Tengshan. If you like this place so much, just buy a house and live here."

Hai Bodong sat up and waved his hands unhappily, while Jia Xingtian leaned back slightly and chuckled.

"Forget it then. An old man like me who can't keep up with the times will just stay in the Jiama Empire. Zhongzhou is too big and not suitable for me."

Some people gain experience in order to climb to a higher position, while some people gain experience just to fulfill their past wishes. Jia Xingtian belongs to the latter.

When he was young, Jia Xingtian also had the idea of ​​abandoning his responsibilities and coming to Zhongzhou to make a living. However, because the burden of the Jia Ma Empire had to be carried by someone, Jia Xingtian at that time thought about putting this idea aside for the time being and coming to Zhongzhou after everything was settled.

And this is temporary, and it will last for several decades.

Now that Jia Xingtian has finally had some free time, he has long lost the fighting spirit he had when he was young.

Afterwards, several old friends who had not seen each other for a long time started chatting, and Xiao Yu accompanied them silently throughout the whole process. At this time, there was a knock on the door, and then the door was pushed open. Ya Fei walked in, and when she saw Jia Xingtian and the other two appearing in the office, her expression was suddenly stunned.

"Master Jia, Master Yunshan, State Master Xiao Jing, why are you here?"

"Come and see those heartless juniors, and take a look around." Xingtian looked at Yafei with interest, and said softly, "Yafei has become more beautiful after not seeing her for so many years. How is she? Did you and Xiao Yan get together?"

"Unfortunately, not yet." Ya Fei smiled politely, with a helpless look in her eyes, "Brother Xiao Yan has been very busy in recent years, and I can hardly find a chance to be alone with him." "Well, then there is no hope for Ye Er, right?"

Jia Xingtian curled his lips in disappointment. Although Yao Ye didn't say it at the beginning, Jia Xingtian could certainly guess why Yao Ye came to Zhongzhou. However, from what Ya Fei said, it seemed that there was no progress on Yao Ye's side.

Well, children and grandchildren have their own blessings. It is a great gain for Yao Ye to come to Zhongzhou to broaden his horizons. As for his relationship with Xiao Yan, we can only say that it is not destined yet.

Just then Tengshan suddenly slapped his forehead.

"Oh! I just remembered it when you mentioned Xiao Yan." Teng Shan looked at Ya Fei and said in her puzzled eyes: "Xiao Yan sent a message this morning, saying that he would come today."

"Huh? When?"

Ya Fei was suddenly startled and asked hurriedly. At this time, Tengshan and others were all stunned. Tengshan raised his hand and pointed behind him.

“It’s time now.”

"Well!"

Ya Fei turned around suddenly and saw Xiao Yan appeared in the room at some point, greeting her with a chuckle.

"Sister Yafei, long time no see."

Read the error-free version at 69shuba! 6=9+shu_ba is the first to publish this novel.

"Ah, long time no see." Ya Fei quickly calmed down, with her usual charming smile on her face, "Brother Xiao Yan, you are really something. You came so quickly that I didn't even have time to dress up properly."

"That's not necessary. Sister Yafei is so beautiful even without any make-up. If you were to dress up, I wouldn't even dare to stand in front of you."

With so many years of experience, Xiao Yan can now respond calmly to the seductive demon Ya Fei. However, these words made Ya Fei blush and look angry. She tapped Xiao Yan's chest with her delicate hand.

At this time, Xiao Ji walked over and looked at his brother in front of him with a gentle expression. The brother was completely different from before.

"Yan'er, long time no see."

"Sister, welcome to Zhongzhou."

Before coming in, Xiao Yan had sensed the arrival of Xiao Wei and others, so he did not show any surprise at this moment, just a little helpless.

"Sister, please send me a message before you come so that I can prepare to receive you in advance."

"No need for that. You must have your own things to do, so we can't bother you." Xiao Yu smiled slightly and stretched out his hand to pinch Xiao Yan's cheek. "You haven't brought the younger generation home in the past few years. Father and the others miss you so much. The Great Elder has always wanted to thank you for Xiao Yu's matter, but he didn't have the chance."

"Besides, your second sister has already sworn that she will not stop until you get back."

“This is really bad.”

Xiao Yan scratched his hair embarrassedly, feeling warm inside.

Then Xiao Yan came in front of Jia Xingtian and Yunshan and bowed slightly to them respectfully.

"Master Jia, Senior Yunshan, long time no see."

"Hey hey hey~ straighten your back, we can't bear your gift."

Jia Xingtian said jokingly, and Xiao Yan responded with a smile.

“No matter what achievements you have made, you should always follow etiquette when dealing with elders who deserve respect. This is what you should do.”

As soon as these words came out, Yunshan and Jia Xingtian suddenly felt warm in their hearts.

Really, if other people had achieved this at Xiao Yan’s age, they would have been so arrogant that they wouldn’t even have any regard for etiquette.
It can be seen that Xiao Yan has indeed grown a lot over the years, but the integrity and humility in his bones have never changed, which is truly rare.

Afterwards, Xiao Yan chatted with everyone for a while. Seeing that they had almost finished talking, Ya Fei stepped forward and asked Xiao Yan at the right time.

"Brother Xiao Yan, what are you doing here today?"

"Oh, we were so happy chatting that I almost forgot." Xiao Yan smiled embarrassedly, took out the three-part incomplete map from the ring and handed it to Ya Fei, "Sister Ya Fei, please help me find the remaining incomplete map as soon as possible."

"this is?"

Ya Fei looked at the incomplete map in her hand in confusion. Xiao Yan did not hide anything and answered directly.

"This should be the remaining map that contains clues to the Pure Lotus Demonic Fire."

Anyway, the Pure Lotus Demon Fire is about to be born, so there is no reason to hide it. Besides, it is not certain whether it can be found or not.

“Pure Lotus Demonic Fire? The one ranked third on the Strange Fire Ranking?” Hai Bodong, who was chewing an apple, suddenly paused and looked at Xiao Yan with a serious brow, “Is something going to happen recently?”

Hai Bodong knew about the existence of this incomplete map. One of the pieces was the one he gave to Xiao Yan, but he had almost forgotten about it over the years.

Based on Hai Bodong's understanding of Xiao Yan, if there were no unexpected circumstances, this kind of thing would have remained in Xiao Yan's storage ring, gathering dust.

“Yes.” Xiao Yan nodded, his expression becoming more serious. “There’s news that the Pure Lotus Demon Fire will be born in Zhongzhou soon, and the eight ancient clans will all send people to fight for it. If this fragment of the map is really related to the Pure Lotus Demon Fire, maybe it can be of some help.”

"The Eight Clans again."

Hai Bodong took a bite of the apple. He used to think that the Eight Tribes were tall and majestic. However, after seeing the young people from the Eight Tribes who temporarily settled in the Tianhe Alliance in recent years, he no longer thought so.

What kind of family education will produce what kind of offspring. In Hai Bodong's eyes, the so-called Eight Clans are just a bunch of old antiques who have power but are completely unaware of the changes of the times. Those young people are more ignorant of the world than each other, and their eyes are so clear and stupid. If their strength is not taken into consideration, they would be deceived to nothing even in their underwear in the previous Black Horn Region. There are so many young people in the Eight Clans, but only a few of them are good looking.

"Don't worry, Xiao Yan, I will do my best to find it for you." Ya Fei put away the incomplete map and assured Xiao Yan solemnly, "As long as it is in someone's hands, I will definitely help you find it."

This is not an exaggeration. In the past few years, with the support of the Tianhe Alliance, Ya Fei relied on her own abilities to develop the Mitel family into a very powerful business family in Zhongzhou. Although it does not have a monopoly, it has very good relations with almost all businesses. As long as the remaining piece of the map is not buried in some deep mountains and forests, Ya Fei has absolute confidence that she can help Xiao Yan find it.

When Xiao Yan heard Ya Fei's words, he smiled and nodded.

"Well, I'll trouble you, Sister Yafei." (End of this chapter)
