This immortal has a lot of rebelliousness

The words are sharp, showing a tit-for-tat attitude.

Feng Zhengqi appeared to be submissive, but in fact he was deliberately suppressing Nangong Yan under the banner of Lingyunfeng mining area safety.

"Feng Zhengqi, you are so majestic..."

Gently put Shentu Yu down.

Zhang Xianling said with a wry smile, "If you didn't know, you would have thought that you were the master of this mining area, and the Nangong family had become a vassal. You're playing the host rather cleverly. I really admire you!"

Suddenly startled.

Feng Zhengqi's heart suddenly sank.

Looking at the strange expressions of the others, especially the looks they gave him, there was a hint of indescribable depth in their eyes.

It is a big taboo to be more successful than your boss.

The more capable a person is, the more he knows how to keep a low profile, and thus he can ultimately protect himself.

Through the ages.

Many extraordinary people died because they did not know how to restrain themselves, and finally ended up with a miserable fate of being killed and buried.

What Zhang Xianling had just said was tantamount to digging a big hole for him.

Once you jump in, sooner or later there will be no return!

"My subordinates dare not!"

The tall man in heavy armor quickly knelt down.

Feng Zhengqi was sweating profusely and said with great fear, "Lingyun Peak is the property of the Nangong family. I am only speaking the truth. How dare I have any other unreasonable thoughts..."

"Is this really the case?"

Nangong Yan hadn't spoken yet.

Zhang Xianling, however, sneered, "Young Master Yan of the Nangong family is here. I see you don't take him seriously at all. You're acting arbitrarily."

Clenching your teeth tightly.

Feng Zhengqi knelt on the ground, his eyes red, and he wished he could eat Zhang Xianling alive.

But the current situation forces us to do so.

Zhang Xianling deliberately stirred up trouble and clearly wanted to put the blame on him for disobeying orders.

If he dares to act recklessly again, I'm afraid he will be proven to be plotting rebellion.

At this moment, Feng Zhengqi certainly ignored Nangong Yan and attacked Zhang Xianling regardless of the consequences.

But if this is done, it is equivalent to publicly challenging the legitimacy of the Nangong family in Lingyun Peak.

As a result, he couldn't bear it!

"That's enough, let's not talk about this anymore..."

The atmosphere became a little weird.

Nangong Yan hurriedly spoke out to stop him, and said thoughtfully: "Uncle Wang, first arrange for the brothers of the Gentlemen's Hall to go down and rest. Do your best to treat the injured. Other matters can be discussed tomorrow..."

"Yes, Third Young Master." The elderly Uncle Wang nodded in acceptance of the order.

Guards from the mining area immediately stepped forward and took away all the disciples of the "Junzitang".

Even the unconscious Shen Tu Yu was arranged to stay in a special tent.

"Commander Feng, go and do your thing..."

Raised his hand.

Nangong Yan looked depressed, turned his head away and didn't want to say anything more, as if he just wanted to get rid of everyone in front of him.

Hear the words.

Feng Zhengqi stood up silently and glared at Zhang Xianling fiercely again before leaving.

Drooping eyelids.

Zhang Xianling, on the other hand, acted calm and didn't seem to be worried at all.

I have offended so many people along the way, and I am not afraid of such a sycophant.

"Brother Zhang, thanks to you."

Raise your hands and clasp your fists.

Nangong Yan remained gentle and polite, and said with a wry smile, "If it weren't for Brother Zhang's timely intervention to hold back the assassin, I'm afraid I would have been doomed this time."

"Mr. Yan, there's no need to do this. It's just a small favor."

He quickly waved his hand.

Zhang Xianling grinned and pretended to be heartless and heroic.

"I just hope that Master Yan will treat my fellow disciples with kindness for my sake. As for me personally, it doesn't matter. I'm tough and can withstand any hardship!"

Nangong Yan burst out laughing.

Looking around the mine that was still busy in the night, he couldn't help but sigh.

"Brother Zhang, can I have a word with you for a moment..."

Startled slightly.

Zhang Xianling hesitated for a moment, then nodded in understanding.

Nangong Yan didn't say much either.

With a flick of his long sleeves, he immediately led Zhang Xianling away from the square in full view of the public.

After passing through most of the mining area, they were escorted by a group of guards and arrived at a loft beside the mountain ridge.

The scent of sandalwood is refreshing and pleasant.

The decoration in the attic is simple and the furniture looks a bit old, but it is well maintained and looks spotless.

"Brother Zhang, please take a seat."

The two of them sat cross-legged in front of a small table, and Nangong Yan ordered the servants to prepare tea.

He brought up a few more exquisite snacks and then drove everyone out of the attic, obviously wanting to have a private chat with Zhang Xianling.

He raised his eyebrows and looked at the colorful tea in the cup.

Zhang Xianling was not vague and simply tilted his head back and drank it all in one gulp.

"Good, good tea!"

Put down the tea cup.

Zhang Xianling smiled broadly and couldn't help but sigh, "Haoqi City's 'Five Elements Fragrance' is truly delicious. It's sweet and bitter at first, with a long aftertaste. I never thought I could taste this in a mining area that's never seen the sun. I'm truly lucky!"

Slightly stunned.

Nangong Yan asked in surprise, "Brother Zhang, have you ever drunk this tea before?"

For a while he smiled without saying anything.

This rare immortal treasure is rarely found in the world and is of great benefit to the meridians of cultivators.

Last time.

Zhang Xianling had the good fortune to taste it in that old man Situ Zhong's study. How could he have the chance to get his hands on it normally?

"Speaking of which, I am a little envious of Brother Zhang."

Seeing Zhang Xianling smiling but not saying anything.

Nangong Yan didn't ask any more questions. Instead, he changed the subject and lamented, "Although 'Junzitang' is a small sect, at least its tradition is simple and honest. Fellow disciples at least help and love each other. Unlike us, even brothers fight openly and secretly for power and profit."

After hearing this.

Zhang Xianling, who was concentrating on sipping tea, was suddenly startled and almost choked on his tea.

What the hell? !

The disciples of Junzitang help and love each other...

This is fucking bullshit!

Zhang Xianling was speechless for a moment, feeling that this guy was deliberately mocking him.

God knows.

If Nangong Yan knew what Zhang Xianling had done in the sect before, would his worldview be completely destroyed and would he no longer believe in true love in the world...

"Uh, Master Yan..."

He smiled bitterly.

Zhang Xianling pondered for a moment, then said straight to the point: "Do you have any difficulties here? Why not tell me directly?"

"Ugh......"

He let out a long sigh.

Nangong Yan wanted to cry but had no tears, but he finally told his own difficulties.

Nangong Family——

As one of the most powerful families in the entire Eastern Continent, it has ruled "Haoqi City" for tens of thousands of years.

In the eyes of others.

The Nangong family is high and mighty. Not only do they have the support of the God King of the Eastern Region, but their own strength also overlooks the three realms and four continents. They are an unshakable behemoth.

Anyone who has any connection with him will surely be able to rise to great heights and prosper.

But no one knows.

As a descendant of the Nangong family, Nangong Yan has always been living a miserable life.

It was simply because his personal aptitude was too mediocre and his cultivation strength had been stagnant. His level was not much different from those of the outer disciples of the "Junzitang".

If that's all, that's fine.

At worst, he could be an idle young master of a royal family, relying on the protection of his family. At least he could have enough food and clothing and live his life as he pleased.

But Nangong Yan is the legitimate son of the family and has absolute priority of inheritance since birth.

Every husband is not guilty, and he is guilty of his crime.

A young descendant of a family who is weak in his own right but has absolute priority in inheritance.

Can be imagined.

Such an identity would bring him so much pressure, even threats and hidden dangers!
