Tianmu

Lin Xueer smiled happily, but the faces of Chen Dong and the others were as dark as those of coal miners.

"Xiao Ming, you are so interesting, but it's only my cousin who knows that you are still a boy!" Lin Xueer teased and looked at Chen Ming up and down, with an indescribably strange look in her eyes, which made Chen Ming shiver involuntarily .

Quickly turning his head away to ignore his cousin, Chen Ming looked at the three people in front of him again.

"Aren't you going to give way? Your skin is itchy, right?" Chen Ming said without arrogance.

"Chen Ming, go ahead and challenge me one-on-one!" Chen Dong couldn't take it anymore, but he didn't dare to do it directly, he was afraid that Lin Xueer would kill him too, just like killing his younger brother Chen Hua. [

He didn't want to die, but he couldn't stand Chen Ming's insult, so he yelled loudly.

"One-on-one, okay!" Chen Ming unexpectedly agreed, which made Chen Dong feel a little incredible.

But before he could speak, Chen Ming spoke again.

"However, today is not suitable. Three months later, it will be the end of the year martial arts performance. When that time comes, let's see you in the ring!" After finishing speaking, Chen Ming stopped talking, pulled Lin Xue'er, and walked straight ahead.

The three of Chen Dong didn't dare to really block their way. In fact, they didn't think about causing trouble at the beginning, but they just stood there, and it looked like they were blocking the way of Chen Ming and the others.

……

moment.

The two of them had already returned to Chen Ming's small courtyard in the Chen family.

"Xiao Ming, I thought you were really going to fight that Chen Dong just now, but you are not stupid!" Lin Xueer said with a smile.

"Of course I'm not stupid. Chen Dong is already a martial artist at the fifth level of body training, and I'm only at the third level of body training, and he doesn't have as much martial arts skills as Chen Yong. He doesn't want Chen Hua, although he is not as good as their elder brother Chen Feng , but not weak, so I wouldn't foolishly fight him one-on-one!" Chen Ming said.

Lin Xueer nodded with a smile, and then said: "It's getting late, I'll go back first, and I'll come to you tomorrow."

"Well, goodbye!" Chen Ming nodded and waved.

"Let's go." Lin Xueer smiled, turned and walked towards the courtyard gate, and soon disappeared from Chen Ming's sight.

As soon as Lin Xueer left, Chen Ming turned around and took out his fine steel sword from the room, and began to practice swordsmanship in the yard. Today, after resting all day, Chen Ming used his efforts at night to spend the wasted days Time to make up.

The only pity for him is that he didn't find any valuable good things during the daytime, and the only time he used the Celestial Eye was to make money.

Folding Waves Sword Technique, Breaking Water Sword Technique, and Reflecting Moon Sword Technique.

The three sets of swordsmanship were displayed one by one, and the courtyard was full of sword light, like the river water pouring down from the Nine Heavens Milky Way, filling the entire courtyard with a layer of misty brilliance.

After practicing the three sets of sword techniques several times, Chen Ming stopped his movements and stood with his sword.

"If you want to fuse the three sets of swordsmanship, it is obviously impossible to combine them together. Then you can only start to fuse them from the changes of each move and style little by little, and then you can achieve the overall fusion." [

Chen Ming already had a rough route in his mind and knew how to proceed with the next steps.

Repeatedly practiced the sword, and practiced the sword again until the sun went down. After the servants of the Chen family rang the clapper three times, Chen Ming stopped.

Today is a special day for the various branches of the Chen family. Just yesterday, the clan competition that lasted for several days finally came to a successful conclusion, and the clan members who won the top ten will also be rewarded tonight. Rewards from the elders, and various appreciations.

This is the affirmation given to the top ten and the encouragement given to them.

Chen Ming didn't go to the clan competition this time, but he had to go to this gathering. If he didn't go, it would be tantamount to not admitting that he was a member of the clan. The crime was serious.

After returning to the room and changing his clothes, Chen Ming put away the fine steel sword and set off.

The huge Chen family has a total of more than 9000 people, of which the direct line members account for a very small part, only [-] people, but the direct lineage has always been the strongest.

There are more than 3000 members in the rest of the branches. There are more than 70 members in Chen Ming's branch, including 220 second-generation members of No.[-].

The most outstanding member of the No. 70 second generation of the Chen family is naturally the direct line Chen Feng. He is known as the first genius of the Chen family, and now he has reached the eighth level of body training, and his age is only 19 years old.

For this, Chen Ming scoffed, not to mention anything else, Lin Xueer alone is already at the ninth level of body training, and is still in the realm of perfection, but how old is Lin Xueer?Only 16 years old.

However, the members of the Chen family didn't treat Lin Xueer as part of the Chen family, so naturally they didn't count her.

In fact, if Lin Xueer is willing, the Chen family welcomes this promising genius to join their Chen family, but the main reason why Lin Xueer is unwilling to join is because of the shadow left by her childhood.

Lin Xueer's father, Lin Tianyun, is the next-generation castle owner of the Lin Family Fort thousands of miles away from Qingyuan City. He is very powerful. Originally, Lin Xueer's childhood should have been a happy life, but this Everything changed completely when she was two years old.

The mighty Lin Family Fort is destroyed!

The members of the Lin family fled to their deaths. Lin Tianyun, as the castle owner's son, was not spared, but Lin Xue'er and her daughter, who happened to be returning to their natal family at that time, survived by luck.

If it was just like this, the Chen family would not embarrass their mother and daughter. It was also the Chen family's own fault. They thought they had climbed the big tree of the Lin family, so they began to ask for it constantly.

Lin Tianyun was very kind to his wife, and he also agreed to some requests from the Chen family, such as sending some outstanding young members of the Chen family to study in the Lin Family Fort, so the fall of the Lin Family Fort also caused the geniuses of the Chen family's younger generation Almost lost.

This also caused the Chen family to be suppressed by the other two families in Qingyuan City, making almost all the Chen family hate Lin Xueer and her daughter.

In fact, is it their fault?It's strange, and it's not the Chen family's own fault.

Lin Xueer's childhood was very miserable. The only friend she had was Chen Ming when she was young. For Lin Xueer, in the entire Chen family, only Chen Ming's family and her mother were good to her. Yes, even grandparents treat her very badly.

What happened after that was that she was favored by the inner sect elder of the Xuanbing Raging Fire Sect, and received his disciples. She changed from an ugly duckling to a golden phoenix, turning over in an instant.

After leaving Qingyuan City for so many years, Lin Xueer still remembered the love she had when she was a child, that's why she was so close to Chen Ming. [

The original reason why Chen Ming's personality was so introverted was actually because of Lin Xueer's departure.

But the current Chen Ming doesn't know these things. It's really hard to recall the sporadic childhood memories. In fact, every time Chen Ming sees Lin Xueer, he still feels a little guilty. After all, he is not the real Chen Ming. The real Chen Ming had already been devoured by him.
