If I live forever, everyone thinks I am invincible

"As expected of the Xu family, they are truly benevolent and righteous."

"Yes, if there were more families like the Xu family in our dynasty, there would definitely be peace."

"It's a pity that I don't have the talent for cultivation. Otherwise, I would also like to go to the Xu family and try to see if I can become a guest of the Xu family."

"The Xu family contributed money, manpower and effort this time, which is really admirable."

"This is a righteous act by the Xu family. I heard that this attracted thousands of guests."

"And I heard that quite a few people are rushing to the Xu family."

Nowadays in Weishui, people on the streets are talking about the Xu family, and the prestige of the Xu family has been enhanced again.

Chen Changan and his companions heard the news as soon as they arrived at Weishui.

There are five major dynasties in Tianhai. The Tianjian Dynasty and the Shuiyue Dynasty are adjacent to each other, and wars often occur between them.

Just recently, news came from the border that the Shuiyue Dynasty had assembled an army of 300,000 to invade the border of the Tianjian Dynasty.

The Xu family took advantage of this opportunity to recruit retainers and prepared to go to the border to provide support in the name of protecting the Tianjian Dynasty.

Everyone was moved and admired by the Xu family's just actions, but anyone with a discerning eye could see that the Xu family's purpose in doing so was not simple.

"This Xu family not only wants fame, but also wants to strengthen its own strength. Now, they even want military merits. This is to prepare for entering the officialdom."

"The Xu family...I'm afraid they are planning to establish their own business."

"Although the Xu family has received support from the Duke of Zhenguo, this cannot be made public after all. In addition, the Xu family has no people of their own in the army or the court."

"If they want to go further, they must place people from the Xu family in the army and the court."

"Only in this way can the Xu family's foundation and influence grow stronger and stronger."

"I just don't know what the Duke of Zhenguo would feel now." Chen Changan said with a faint smile.

"Brother, I don't care what the Duke of Zhenguo thinks. The Xu family won't be around for much longer anyway."

"But...it seems like we came at a bad time."

"The Xu family already had so many retainers, and now they have recruited so many more. If we want to deal with the Xu family, how long will it take to kill so many people?"

The situation at the Xu family's side was indeed sudden and unexpected, but since they were already here, Chen Changan didn't plan to make any long-term plans.

The more people there are, the more there are. Whether we kill a hundred, a thousand, or even ten thousand, isn't it all killing?

It just takes a little more time.

"Let's go. It's time for the Xu family to be overjoyed and then sad."

At this time, the Xu family was extremely lively.

The head of the Xu family was also a little surprised. He didn't expect that after the accumulation of the past few years, the prestige of the Xu family is so high now.

With just a call, he attracted more than 3,000 visitors in just half a month.

This has far exceeded his expectations, and he feels that the number of guests attracted this time may reach about five thousand.

By then, he would take these people to the border, wait for the opportunity, and build up his reputation. This would make it much easier for the Xu family to enter the officialdom in the future.

"Everyone, today my Xu family is blessed to have your help."

"This move is to protect the border of our Tianjian Dynasty and protect the people of our Tianjian Dynasty from being harmed by the war."

"I deeply admire your righteous deeds. Please allow me to toast you all to express my admiration!"

After saying that, the head of the Xu family raised the wine glass in his hand and drank it all.

"Why did Patriarch Xu say that?"

"Compared with Patriarch Xu, we are really not worth mentioning. You are the one who truly serves the country and the people."

"That's right. Everyone knows that the Xu family is kind and generous, and has a broad mind. If it weren't for the head of the Xu family, we wouldn't have such an opportunity."

"Master Xu, this glass of wine should be offered to you. You are the righteous man who truly cares about the safety of the Tianjian Dynasty and the safety of the people."

"Master Xu, this glass of wine is for you."

"I respect you too!"

Seeing many guests picking up their wine glasses, the head of the Xu family waved his hands and said ashamedly, "It's a pity that I, Xu, am humble and have little influence, and I don't have that much strength."

"Otherwise, I would never resort to such a desperate measure and let you take this risk."

"I know this will be a life-threatening situation, and I... feel guilty."

Upon hearing this, everyone quickly spoke up to try to persuade them.

"What are you talking about, Master Xu? You have no choice. Besides, we all came here voluntarily. How can it be your fault?"

"That's right, Patriarch Xu, there is no need to feel guilty. This is our own choice."

"We also want to thank Patriarch Xu for giving us this opportunity to guard the border and bring honor to our family."

"Master Xu, your actions are righteous, so why do you feel guilty?"

"Yes, those who are indifferent and ignore it should really feel guilty."

"If we had more people like Patriarch Xu and families like him in the Tianjian Dynasty, why would we worry about injustice in the world?"

After hearing what everyone said, the head of the Xu family looked ashamed and waved his hands embarrassedly.

"It's all thanks to you all for your kindness. I'm still far from being good enough."

"But Xu will definitely not let you down. I will use all my strength to do my best."

"Xu doesn't care about these so-called false reputations. All I have to do is say four words."

"Have a clear conscience!"

"it is good!"

"Master Xu said it well!"

Patriarch Xu's words drew applause from the crowd, and everyone was moved by Patriarch Xu's words.

Including Chen Changan, who had been standing aside and listening for a long time.

“That’s very well said.”

"I almost believed it."

"However, I would like to ask Master Xu, do you really... have a clear conscience?"

When the discordant voice appeared, everyone was stunned.

They even began to wonder if they had just heard the auditory hallucinations.

Is there anyone who dares to question the character of the head of the Xu family to his face?

"Who are you, the villain, that dares to question Patriarch Xu here? Stand up and speak out if you have the guts, don't hide in the dark."

"Humph, I want to see who can say such a conscienceless thing."

"You have the courage to speak, but not the courage to stand up and admit it?"

Everyone looked towards the crowd indignantly, but after all, there were too many people here, and they didn't know who had said that for a moment.

"Why not?"

Chen Changan didn't care about the angry looks from the people around him and just stood up.

When they saw Chen Changan, everyone was stunned. With this appearance and temperament, he didn't look like an ordinary person.

A fierce look flashed across the eyes of the head of the Xu family at this moment, but he quickly hid it and turned to look at Chen Changan with a smile.

"I wonder if Xu has offended this little brother in any way?"

"Why do you say this?"
