Please show your spirit to our ancestors

Chapter 87 Excuse me? Is this the Chen family of Cangyi? (Updated on Saturday)

……

Chen Ningtai also looked unhappy, and he refused politely with stiff muscles: "Brother Xiuxian, our Shiyan plans to send her to the sect for training, and we don't plan to marry her off."

"Send it to the sect?"

Cui Xiuxian was in a very positive mood and didn't realize Chen Ningtai's hidden meaning, so he frowned immediately.

"Four spiritual roots are just so-so when sent to a sect. At most, they can become inner sect deacons. Your family already has brother Ning Zhuo as a deacon, and there will be children to take over in the future."

"What's the point of having one more deacon? Isn't the marriage between our two clans much better than a sect? In this way, your Chen clan's status in the entire Hedong County will rise."

Hey~
Chen Ningtai sighed in his heart, feeling quite helpless.

The Cui family has been the local tyrant in Hedong County for a long time, and they think that all the foundation-building families in Hedong County should live by licking their boots.

The most important thing is that Chen Ningtai knows how much his father loves Tuantuan. If he dares to agree, his father will break his legs and let Jingyun take over the family!

However, he tried his best to avoid a falling out, so he declined again, saying, "Brother Xiuxian, I still need to consult Jingyun and Qianqian on this matter. We need to think about it."

This is a clear refusal.

No matter how self-centered Cui Xiuxian was, he understood that his proposal for marriage was rejected. Which head of a family wanted to arrange a marriage and had to discuss it with the younger generation?
Immediately his face turned gloomy.

In the past, only those foundation-building families begged them for marriage, and they had to consider it carefully. This was the first time he encountered such a situation, and naturally he was very unhappy!
"Okay, Brother Ningtai, you guys can take your time to think about it." Cui Xiuxian straightened his posture and said with a smile, "I came here this time to discuss another important matter."

Hey~
Chen Ningtai sighed again in his heart.

Sure enough, what is supposed to come will always come, and there is no such thing as luck.

Immediately, his face became serious and he said, "Brother Cui, please speak."

"It was only after I inquired that I found out that the two popular products sold by Qinghe Shangguan's [Enhanced Version of Small Thunder Fire Bomb] and [Jade Slave] were both made by the Chen family." Cui Xiuxian said with a smile, "Your Chen family is really rich in background, I can't tell~"

"We in the Chen family are just lucky and got two recipes." Chen Ningtai said modestly.

"Haha, luck is also a kind of strength." Cui Xiuxian laughed twice, and suddenly stopped smiling, staring at Chen Ningtai with a sharp look, "However, in business, it's not good to eat alone. In the long run, you will have no friends. Win-win cooperation is the long-term solution."

Chen Ningtai said calmly, "Then according to Brother Cui, how can we achieve win-win cooperation?"

"Then I'll speak frankly. What our ancestors meant is that we won't compete with the Shangguan family for sales. All the raw materials for your production of small thunder and fire bombs and jade slaves will be taken care of by our Cui family. You, the Chen family, don't have to worry about too many trivial matters, just concentrate on production."

Cui Xiuxian smiled brightly, and from his tone, it seemed that he was really thinking about Chen and trying to reduce her troubles.

Chen Ningtai felt a little numb all over.

What Cui meant was that he wanted to take all the upstream profits, and at the same time, let Shangguan take all the downstream profits.

In this way, the Chen family became a processing family sandwiched in the middle, and its profits would be squeezed thinner and thinner by the two Jindan families, and in the end it could only earn a meager and hard-earned money.

Good calculation.

This abacus really makes a lot of noise!
Cui Xiuxian drank his tea calmly, and looking at Chen Ningtai's changeable expression, he couldn't help but sneer in his heart.

Haha, even if you, Chen Ningtai, are unhappy, what can you do? Don't think that the Shangguan family will help you deal with our Cui family.

They also wish to suppress Chen’s interests and make you work honestly, so that this business can be more controllable and long-lasting!
Otherwise, once your Chen family becomes bigger and stronger, won’t your say become more and more powerful?

This move by the Cui family was an open conspiracy to take advantage of the interests of the two major Jindan clans.

In his opinion, this plan had no solution at all.

You, Chen, have to bear it whether it's good or bad!

Suddenly.

There was a rapid flapping of wings.

A fat bird flew in from somewhere, chirping, and a black thing fell off its body and landed on Cui Xiuxian's head with incredible precision.

Cui Xiuxian frowned slightly, a little unhappy.

This Chen family is really a nouveau riche family, there are even such animals flying around and shitting in the main house~~
As a cultivator in the Foundation Establishment Stage, it was of course impossible for him to be hit by a pile of bird shit. He casually swung out a palm wind, trying to swat the bird shit away.

Chen Ningtai, who was standing by, had already keenly sensed that something was wrong.

He recognized the bird. Its name was "Maqiu". It was a spiritual pet that Jingyun had tamed. Now, most of the time, it was played with by Tuantuan.

Chen Ningtai knew very well what kind of person his great-granddaughter Tuantuan was.

Use your eyesight and take a closer look, okay~!!

His pupils shrank, and he quickly retreated with a golden shadow.

"boom!"

An intense flame exploded, bringing with it a violent shock wave that completely enveloped Cui Xiuxian.

The shock wave swept through, and all the surrounding tables, chairs, and teacups were blown to pieces.

Wait for the smoke to clear.

Cui Xiuxian stood still, as if he had not yet recovered from the shock, before he appeared in front of Chen Ningtai again.

At this moment, most of his well-maintained hair had been licked off by the flames, his clothes were tattered and worn, and his originally fair face was covered with mottled black spots and many burns. He looked as miserable as possible.

This is also thanks to the fact that he is a cultivator in the Foundation Establishment Stage.

He reacted extremely quickly at the moment of the explosion and used his body-protecting true energy to block it in an emergency.

So it just looked tragic, but actually there was no serious injury.

But it is extremely insulting.

Cui Xiuxian was so angry that his whole body was shaking, and a surge of anger mixed with hostility was boiling and tumbling in his heart.

How dare you attack the head of this family!
He was just about to get furious.

Suddenly, a child of about five or six years old came out from nowhere, running towards Chen Ningtai with his short legs, crying in a baby voice: "Grandpa, Auntie Tuan bullied me again~~"

Cui Xiuxian, who was a little nervous, thought it was a second wave of attack and subconsciously made a hand gesture, but found that it was a harmless little boy and immediately withdrew his hand.

No matter how angry he was, he didn't dare to kill Chen's child, because that would make things out of control.

This child is naturally Chen Xiuyang.

Perhaps because Chen Xiuyang was running too fast, and was filled with unspeakable grievances, he tripped and fell forward.

"Yiao'er, be careful." Chen Ningtai's body flashed, and he grabbed a golden light. He appeared beside Chen Xiuyang as if he had teleported and hugged him.

Chen Ningtai naturally treasured this great-great-grandson who had extraordinary spiritual roots.

Due to the impact, the two black "mud balls" in the hands of Fatty Chen Xiuyang could no longer hold on and flew out for a distance. After landing, they rolled towards Cui Xiuxian's feet.

Cui Xiuxian didn't take it seriously at first, and instinctively thought that they were the clay marbles that little boys loved to play with.

But when the two "mud balls" rolled to his feet, he glanced at them inadvertently, but was so frightened that his face changed drastically in an instant, and his soul was almost scared away.

He instinctively circulated his true energy to protect his body, while his body quickly rushed upwards.

"Boom!"

Two more violent explosions were heard.

The flames and shock waves seemed to engulf everything in all directions.

Chen Ningtai was also shocked, and he was busy using his protective gold shield to protect Chen Xiuyang as he retreated. The explosion caused his gold shield to tremble.

Wait until the flames die down and the smoke dissipates.

Cui Xiuxian was already suspended in mid-air, but his pants and robe had been blown to pieces. His entire face was covered in dust and black, and a lot of exposed skin was burned, making him look both embarrassed and ridiculous.

The previous anger has not yet subsided, and new anger has arisen.

An uncontrollable surge of rage almost burst Choi Soo-hyun’s chest.

His eyes were red and he kept cursing.

"You little bastard, you little bastard..."

He hadn't finished scolding yet.

Then a little girl about ten years old suddenly appeared beside the flower bed.

The little girl was dressed very beautifully and cutely, and her appearance was very delicate, like a little princess in a fairy tale.

But on her shoulder, she was carrying a red copper cylindrical object. The mouth of the tube was about as thick as a bowl, and the surface was surrounded by round hoops, which looked very strange.

Such a little girl, carrying an unknown tube.

The painting style was so weird that even Choi Soo-hyun was stunned.

But Chen Ningtai's face changed drastically, and he quickly wanted to speak to stop her, but he saw that the little girl had already opened her pink lips and uttered a word: "Boom!"

As the word "boom" fell.

A long flame spurted out from the back of the red copper cylinder, while a bowl-sized ball shot out from the front, whistling as it shot towards Cui Xiuxian.

Cui Xiuxian's heart tightened.

I instantly understood what this was.

Once upon a time, an ancient monk accidentally created something called "gunpowder" while exploring alchemy. The formula was then passed down to mortals.

Mortals used gunpowder to make things like fireworks and firecrackers to scare away the monsters.

Even now, among the elite troops of the Great Wu State, there are muskets and cannons that fire iron balls.

However, those things were just mortal objects after all, and too simple. The power of the small thunder and fire bombs far exceeded them.

For low-level Qi Refining cultivators, they still pose some threat, but against Foundation Establishment cultivators, they are nothing more than toys with weak killing power!
Facing the whistling iron ball, Cui Xiuxian, who was already prepared, activated the golden shield to protect his body. He pinched his fingers and a golden light shot towards the iron ball, which was brilliant and magnificent.

The Cui family has a gold-practicing method called the Taiyi Gengjin Jue. The ancestor of the Cui family relied on this method to cultivate to the Golden Elixir stage.

What Cui Xiuxian practiced was the foundation-building chapter of the Taiyi Gengjin Jue, which could directly lead to the perfection of the Lingtai realm in the late stage of foundation-building. Compared with Chen's superior wild method [Jinyuan Body-building Technique], it was essentially stronger.

There will be some advantages when fighting at the same level!
"boom!"

The iron ball exploded in the air.

However, there was not the violent sound and light effect that Choi Soo-hyun had expected. Instead, it seemed a little weak. Some kind of dark juice sprayed out from it, falling in all directions like flowers scattered by a fairy.

"Pah, pah!"

The black liquid covered Cui Xiuxian's golden shield, like a bunch of blooming black flowers with smiling faces, mocking him!

If it weren't for the shield blocking him, he would definitely be able to smell the stench all over his nose.

Cui Xiuxian's whole body was stiff.

Having lived for more than a hundred years, he had never encountered such a scene. He was completely numb!

"Choo Choo Choo!"

The locust bird flapped its wings and passed over Cui Xiuxian's head again. The bird's butt was squeezed and a pile of bird shit shot out.

"Bah!"

It hit the Jinyuan Shield accurately, leaving behind a large number of black smiling faces of the same color.

This is Uncle Ma Qiu reminding him that those things just now all belonged to your Uncle Ma Qiu!
Then, it flapped its wings and turned into a dark black lightning and flew away, leaving behind only fame and glory.

When Cui Xiuxian came to his senses, his old face became stiff and then distorted.

"Chen Ningtai, how dare you, the Chen family, humiliate me like this? This is too much! How despicable, how hateful!!"

Chen Ningtai retreated calmly, and the protective golden shield unfolded, protecting Chen Xiuyang and Chen Shiyun behind him.

He glared at them fiercely, indicating that he would come back to deal with the two of you. Then he said loudly: "Brother Xiuxian, this is just a prank played by children. You are the dignified head of the Jindan clan. Don't bother with children."

To be honest, Chen Ningtai also felt a little embarrassed when he said this.

"Who is your brother Xiuxian? Playing around? Humph, what kid plays around like that!" Cui Xiuxian had never suffered such a great humiliation before, and he was so angry that his whole body was shaking. "If it weren't for you, Chen Ningtai, who was instructing them, would these bastards dare to raise their claws to me?"

"enough!"

Chen Ningtai's face darkened, and a powerful aura rose up. The true meaning of Jin Yuan flowed through his body, like a blade, pointing at Cui Xiuxian from a distance with the intention of attacking and killing: "My child is indeed a little reckless and impulsive, but he also knows right from wrong, and will not tolerate your insults."

"Cui Xiuxian, if you don't accept it, let's fight one-on-one today! Let's see whether it's you, Cui Xiuxian, who will end up hating my Chen family, or I will die in your hands!"

A strong murderous intent emanated from him.

Cui Xiuxian's momentum suddenly stagnated.

In terms of cultivation, he is not much different from Chen Ningtai, and the Taiyi Gengjin Jue Foundation Establishment Chapter he practices is also more advanced.

But the problem is that he has not yet understood the true meaning of Jin Yuan! Chen Ningtai understood it many years ago.

The most important thing is that Chen Ningtai is a famous killer!
The Twin Ghosts of Pishan, Bai Xinrong, and the Blood-Handed Demon Slayer, which one of them is easy to deal with?

But they all died one by one at the hands of Chen Ningtai!

If it really came to a fight to the death, Choi Soo-hyun felt he had less than a 30% chance of winning.

However, he sneered and said, "Chen Ningtai, are you determined to go against my Cui family?"

"Since you don't want the face I gave you, don't blame me, Cui, for resorting to trickery. When the time comes, I hope you won't come and kneel down to beg me!"

Chen Ningtai's face was as black as ink: "Get lost!"

He has already made up his mind that if the sect's plan to find a new backer fails, he will sell the technologies related to Jade Slave and the Small Thunder and Fire Bomb to the Shangguan family for protection, or simply contribute all of it to the sect and use the sect's contribution to exchange for a protection period!

As long as Chen is given a few decades to grow, he will be able to gain a foothold.

"Okay, that's interesting. If you don't accept my toast, you'll have to drink a penalty toast." Cui Xiuxian mocked with a cold face, waved his sleeves and prepared to leave.

If anyone dares to humiliate him like this, he will definitely make this Chen family see what the “Golden Elixir Supreme Clan” is!
however.

Just at this time.

The white clouds in the sky were suddenly dyed with a touch of fiery red, as if a raging fire was burning the clouds, illuminating the entire Chen family with a slightly red color.

at the same time.

A thunderous voice came from the red cloud.

"Excuse me, is this the Cangyi Chen clan?"

Golden Core Monk! ?
