Chapter 591: Burning the Shen Family
Zhang Gaoqiu also had his own plans. Of course, he wanted to take action against Zhang Chen and even wanted to kill him directly. However, the secret treasure was not under his control now, and he might need the help of Zhang Chen to achieve his goal in the future, so he must not take action at this time.

But when Zhang Gaoqiu heard that Zhang Chen actually touched Shen Ling's butt, he was also furious. But for the sake of the secret treasure, he could only suppress his anger: "You should stabilize that boy for the time being. Instead of pretending to be nice, you should confuse him first. If you need that boy to take action later, you can confuse him and then ask him to take action. If you don't need that boy to take action later, we will directly drive him out of the mansion, make him infamous, and then put him in jail and completely disappear from the world."

Zhang Gaoqiu's voice was filled with murderous intent as he comforted Shen Ling: "For the sake of our great plan, I have no choice but to put you in an awkward position now."

Lixiang Garden

Shen Ling left, but Zhang Chen still sat in the house leisurely, eating the food on the table, with a thoughtful look in his eyes.

"The Shen family's attitude towards me is not good. I am the grandson of the old lady of the Shen family, but since we met that day, I have never been summoned by the old lady again. Even the head of the Shen family has never seen anyone except Wang Xifeng and Shen Xu. My family seems to have become invisible people in the Shen Mansion!" Zhang Chen pondered the attitude of the Shen family, and a thoughtful look appeared in his eyes:
“It’s getting more and more interesting!”

However, Zhang Chen was not in a hurry, because Liu Ji would make a move, and he would naturally have the opportunity to obtain the treasures left by his mother. As long as he found the items left by his mother, he would have the initiative to advance or retreat.

In the next three days, Zhang Chen lived a relaxed life. Shen Ling would still come to see him on time every day, and would inevitably be teased and molested by Zhang Chen.

On the contrary, the little girl Jiang Nan has been missing for the past few days and no one knows what she is doing.

The evening of the third day

Zhang Chen was sitting in the patio, watching the afterglow of the setting sun in the sky. At this moment, suddenly a terrifying divine power erupted from the Shen family, and a ball of divine light from the Shen family disappeared into the horizon.

"The tenth-level god of the Shen family has left, and Liu Ji's plan to lure the tiger away from the mountain has succeeded." Zhang Chen was overjoyed when he saw this, and the next moment, the invisibility talisman was attached to his body, and his figure disappeared into the air. Zhang Chen directly activated the escape technique and disappeared on the spot.

Zhang Chen's invisibility talisman has reached the ninth level. Even a Yangshen master of the same level cannot see through it unless he has the divine eye.

Zhang Chen's figure flashed, and when he reappeared he was already inside the Shen family ancestral temple. However, unlike the quiet and peaceful scene seen from the outside, there were actually more than a dozen figures gathered inside the ancestral temple.

Those dozen or so figures were surrounded by divine light, they were all gods from the Shen family, ranging from the ninth to the eighth level.

And Zhang Chen saw an acquaintance: Zhang Gaoqiu.

At this time, Zhang Gaoqiu was surrounded by people in the center. He was standing under the clan tablet. The void in front of his eyes was distorted, and a chaotic and hazy aura turned into a ball of flame that was constantly surrounding him.

Zhang Gaoqiu's body exuded a blood pulsation unique to the Zhang family. At the same time, his wrist was cut, and trickles of blood spurted out, converging towards the chaotic energy in the void, trying to defeat it. Unfortunately, Zhang Gaoqiu's power was directly decomposed and dissipated by the chaotic energy after approaching it.

Zhang Chen looked at Zhang Gaoqiu with a hint of surprise in his eyes: "Seventh-level bloodline, no wonder this kid is so arrogant, he obviously has the capital to be arrogant."

The ninth level is Yang God, the eighth level is Yin God, and the seventh level is rebirth through possession of another's body.

Zhang Gaoqiu is still very young, but his bloodline power has already reached the seventh level. He can obviously be called a child of destiny.

In particular, the Zhang family's bloodline is good at controlling ghosts and other people's souls, which makes it extremely weird and hard to guard against.

Zhang Chen glanced at everyone in the Shen family, from the old man to the young man, and a very familiar face, Shen Qiu. At this time, everyone was circulating their strength and trying to suppress the object. However, they saw that the object was surrounded by chaotic energy. Although everyone's attacks were powerful, they could not do anything to the object.

"Everyone is gathered in the ancestral temple. How can I do anything bad? I need to use some means to transfer everyone away." Zhang Chen looked at the backs of everyone in the field and said to himself.

He has limited time, only a quarter of an hour. If the tenth-level god of the Shen family returns after a quarter of an hour, and he is unable to take away the fortune left by his mother, then he will miss the opportunity.

Zhang Chen looked towards the object surrounded by the chaotic energy in the void, and saw the chaotic energy flowing around it. Its energy was obscure, and Zhang Chen's pupils shrank: "That is an innate treasure!"

That object had innate energy flowing through it, so how could Zhang Chen make a mistake?
After ten years of training in Wuzhuang Monastery, Zhang Chen read widely. Although his cultivation level did not improve much, his eyesight was first-rate.

"The Shen family actually has an innate treasure? I just don't know what's so mysterious about this innate treasure. Even if this treasure is not left to me by my mother, I will take it away as a way to make up for the interest paid to me by the Shen family." Zhang Chen was overjoyed, and then he looked at the people who were trying to suppress the treasure, thinking about how to create an opportunity to take action. After thinking for more than thirty breaths, Zhang Chen had a plan in mind. He saw him retreat from the Shen family ancestral hall, and the next moment, a red light flashed in his palm, steaming the void to twist and tremble, and a terrifying and scorching hot air flowed out.

This thing is Zhang Chen's skill, Solar Charcoal Fire.

"As long as I use this skill to burn the Shen family, the strong men of the Shen family will definitely go to put out the fire and suppress my solar charcoal fire." Zhang Chen looked around and looked at the central courtyard of the Shen family. That was the residence of the ancestor of the Shen family.

Zhang Chen didn't want to kill anyone, but he restrained the power of the solar charcoal fire with a thought in his mind. Then he snapped his fingers, and the solar charcoal fire, which was as big as a cigarette butt, broke through the void and fell on the courtyard of the old lady of the Shen family. Then the charcoal fire exploded in the air in an instant, and the sparks exploded like fireworks, spurting in all directions of the Shen family mansion. Wherever they fell, smoke and dust rose in an instant, and raging flames rose directly into the sky. Most of the Shen family was engulfed in a sea of ​​fire.

"Put out the fire! Put out the fire!"

There were bursts of servants' screams in the Shen family manor.

The blazing fire immediately alarmed the Shen family masters in the ancestral hall. Zhang Chen returned to the Shen family ancestral hall and saw a group of masters rushing out of the ancestral hall. Looking at the overwhelming flames, one of the Shen family masters frowned and said, "Damn it, where did the flames come from? They actually caused my Shen family to fall into a sea of ​​fire?"

However, the reason why the Shen family can control 70% of the world's water transport is because they are born with the ability to control water. At this time, a person with the fifth-level bloodline took action, controlling the water that was summoned from nowhere, and rushed towards the flame. However, after the flame touched the water, it actually exploded with horrible burning heat. The power of the flame increased instead of decreased. With water vapor as fuel, the power increased by at least 30%.

The Shen family's ninth-level god's face changed color when he saw this scene: "This is not an ordinary fire, everyone save people first!"

The masters of the Shen family dispersed and began to rescue the Shen family members, while Zhang Chen was strolling in the firelight, walking slowly towards the ancestral temple.

After Zhang Chen entered the ancestral temple, he saw Zhang Gaoqiu still standing in the temple. At this time, he was standing in the temple with a grim expression, looking at the chaotic light ball enshrined on the table.

Although there were flames rising into the sky outside, Zhang Gaoqiu was not affected by the outside world. Instead, he stood in the ancestral hall thinking about how to break the restrictions on the treasure.

When Zhang Chen came closer, he just happened to hear Zhang Gaoqiu standing there complaining: "This shouldn't be the case. I've tried every possible way, but why can't I control this treasure? Does it really require Zhang Chen to do it?"

"That's not right. The Zhang family bloodline flows in my body, which can replace Zhang Kecheng's bloodline. And the ancestors of the Shen family are enough to replace Shen Lian's bloodline power. The combination of the two already contains all of Zhang Chen's bloodline power, but why can't I get close to the treasure? What went wrong here?" Zhang Gaoqiu's voice was full of confusion, and he was racking his brains desperately.

When Zhang Chen heard Zhang Gaoqiu's words, he was certain that the thing in front of him was the treasure left by his mother. Shen Lian was his mother's name.

Zhang Chen looked at Zhang Gaoqiu, who was full of confusion, and slowly approached him from behind. Before he could react, a talisman flashed in his hand and stuck directly behind him.

Zhang Gaoqiu is a seventh-level warrior, and it just so happens that Zhang Chen’s immobilization talisman is a seventh-level talisman. Isn’t that a coincidence?

Zhang Gaoqiu's body was frozen, but his mind was still there. At this moment, a look of horror appeared in his eyes, and cold sweat instantly soaked his forehead. He thought to himself, "Who is plotting against me?"

He had already sensed something was wrong. This was the Shen family, and the other party was plotting against him, which must be an ulterior motive. This was not a good thing for him.

Just as all kinds of thoughts were running through his mind, Zhang Chen stood behind Zhang Gaoqiu, stretched out his hand and brushed it over his head, along his forehead, across his eyelids, and closed his eyes tightly.

Zhang Chen was still worried about his safety, so he simply untied his belt and covered Zhang Gaoqiu's eyes. Only then did Zhang Chen feel at ease walking past Zhang Gaoqiu.

Although he had an invisibility talisman, he was confident that the other party could not see through his invisibility talisman, but he still had to add an extra layer of insurance, right?
The most important thing is that it is a good idea to be mysterious and mislead the enemy a little more.

Zhang Chen looked at Zhang Gaoqiu with murderous intent in his eyes. The other party had been scheming against him in every way and trying to take his family heirloom. Logically, he should have been torn into pieces. However, Zhang Chen's eyes turned and he had a better plan in mind. Instead of killing him with one knife, it would be better to make the other party suffer a fate worse than death.

Zhang Chen raised the corner of his mouth and ignored Zhang Gaoqiu, instead turning his gaze towards the treasure not far away.

Is this what my mother left behind?
