The Cangling Zhang family dominates the continent!

"Hahaha, Brother Chentian, you've been made an Earl, yet you're still working so hard. You're worthy of being you."

A hearty laugh broke the silence in the yard.

At this time, Zhang Chentian had just finished practicing a set of sword techniques and was standing in the middle of the yard to rest.

He looked up when he heard the sound and saw a familiar figure walking towards him.

"Hahaha, Brother Feng, long time no see!" Zhang Chentian was overjoyed and immediately stepped forward to greet him.

Qingdie and Xia Aofeng slowly walked into the yard.

She saluted Zhang Chentian gracefully: "

Master, Master Xia is here."

Then he turned and left.

"Auntie Die, take care!"

Zhang Chentian smiled and nodded.

After Qingdie left, Zhang Chentian warmly invited:

"Come on, Brother Feng, sit down, let's have a couple of drinks today."

As he spoke, he gestured for Xia Aofeng to sit at the wooden table in the yard.

Xia Aofeng was not polite either, he sat down and laughed:

"Of course I will. I'm not leaving today!"

There was a glint of excitement in his eyes, as if he couldn't wait to have a drink with Zhang Chentian.

Zhang Chentian then sat down opposite Xia Aofeng, patted the wine jug on the table, and said with a smile:

"This is a fine wine that I have treasured for many years. I specially brought it out today to share with Brother Xia."

After saying that, he filled a glass of wine for Xia Aofeng.

Xia Aofeng picked up the wine glass, first smelled the aroma of the wine, then drank it all in one gulp, and exclaimed:

"Good wine! Brother Chentian is truly generous!"

The two drank and chatted, and the atmosphere was very harmonious.

Before I knew it, the sun was setting and a gorgeous sunset glow appeared on the horizon.

"Time flies so fast. It's already late in the blink of an eye." Zhang Chentian sighed.

"Yeah, time flies by really fast."

Xia Aofeng paused and continued:

"Brother Chentian, I actually came here today to tell you something else."

"Hahaha, Brother Feng, please tell me, there's no need to be so polite between us."

Hearing this, Zhang Chentian smiled and said that he was not surprised by Xia Aofeng's words.

"I heard you were planning to go to Nanshui City. Could you take me with you? I want to follow you in the future."

Upon hearing this, Xia Aofeng told the purpose of his visit.

"Oh? Why did you choose this? As Xia Aoxue's cousin, the king will definitely not treat you unfairly when you return to the royal city."

After hearing Xia Aofeng's words, Zhang Chentian asked in confusion.

"Haha, in my opinion, if I really choose to return to the royal city with my father, then I can see the end of my life at a glance. This is not the choice I want to make."

Xia Aofeng raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a bitter smile, his eyes revealing confusion and anxiety about the future.

He knew very well that after returning to the royal city, his life would be clearly arranged without any surprises or challenges.

This kind of life made him feel suffocated, as if he could see the end at a glance.

However, Xia Aofeng was not willing to spend his life like this. He longed for freedom, to explore the unknown world, and to pursue higher achievements.

At this moment, Zhang Chentian appeared. His appearance gave Xia Aofeng new hope and also made him see another possibility.

So, Xia Aofeng decided to put aside all his worries, bravely follow his heart, and find his own path.

"How about it, Brother Chentian, can you take me with you?"

Xia Aofeng picked up the wine glass and drank it all in one gulp. His eyes were firm and sincere, full of expectation and trust.

"My intuition tells me that my achievements following you will far exceed my achievements returning to the royal city."

He knew what this decision meant, but he was willing to lose all his wealth and glory.

Because he believed that only by following Zhang Chentian could he realize his dream and create his own glory.

Zhang Chentian listened quietly to Xia Aofeng's words, and felt moved.

He never thought that he could gain such sincere friendship and trust.

He looked at Xia Aofeng deeply, then nodded and said:

"Okay! Let's go together!"

Upon hearing this, Xia Aofeng's face suddenly broke into a bright smile.

He reached out and held Zhang Chentian's hand tightly, tears glistening in his eyes.

At this moment, their hearts are closely connected as they embark on an unknown journey together.

After returning to the room, the two of them tacitly didn't say much, as if they had telepathy, and just lay down on the bed and fell asleep.

The next morning, sunlight streamed into the room through the window, waking up the two sleeping people.

They slowly opened their eyes, feeling the arrival of a new day.

After a quick wash, Zhang Chentian turned to look at Xia Aofeng beside him, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised, and asked with a smile:

"Do you have anything else to pack? If not, we'll be leaving for South Water City."

Upon hearing this, Xia Aofeng shook his head slightly, his eyes firm and bright. He straightened his body, looked at the rising sun in the distance, and said with high spirits:

"No, everything that needs to be cleaned up has already been cleaned up. I have been waiting for this moment!"

The sunlight shines on his face, outlining a firm outline, and his eyes reveal his expectation and confidence for the future.

At this moment, Xia Aofeng is like a star about to shine, ready to embark on his own journey.

"Chenguang, Chenwu, Chenhu, don't slack off in your training these past two years. We are looking forward to your performance in the first family competition in two years!"

Zhang Chentian looked at the three young men riding on black-scaled horses not far away and spoke loudly.

His eyes were full of expectation and encouragement.

After hearing what Zhang Chentian said, the three young men pulled the reins and stopped the black-scaled horses under them.

They turned around and looked at Zhang Chentian, with determination glittering in their eyes.

"Don't worry, Seventh Brother, we are also looking forward to the family competition!"

Zhang Chenguang looked back at Zhang Chentian and said, his voice revealing confidence and determination.

The other two also had smiles on their faces, as if they had already seen their excellent results in the family competition.

Zhang Chentian smiled slightly and nodded to them in approval.

Then he reminded them: "Remember to pay more attention to safety. If you encounter any difficulties or dangers, be sure to report back to the tribe in time."

"I understand, Seventh Brother." Zhang Chenguang and others answered in unison.

"Okay, that's it. Be careful on your journey." Zhang Chentian waved his hand, indicating that they could set off.

Zhang Chenguang and others saluted Zhang Chentian again, then turned their horses around and galloped away into the distance.

Their figures gradually walked away and finally disappeared from sight.

Zhang Chentian stood there, looking at the direction they left, secretly praying in his heart that they would be safe.

At the same time, he is also looking forward to the family competition in two years, hoping that they can all achieve excellent results.
