Eight Desolate Valkyries

Chapter 308 Patriarch Prestige
There is no hatred without a reason, as the saying goes, everything has a reason.

The reason why this man in the middle stage of Peiyuan Realm hated Luo Cheng was because of his identity and background. As we all know, he is the elder brother of Luo Cheng's stepmother.

When Luo Dingtian married a new wife back then, the purpose was to carry on the family line.Because at that time Luo Cheng was in a deposed state and had lost the qualification to succeed the patriarch.

In other words, Luo Cheng's stepmother came here with the intention of letting her child be the patriarch, so it was natural for her family to do so.

But all of this ended with the recovery of Luo Cheng's talent.

As for his half-brother, who is still just a baby, Luo Cheng did not comment, and his stepmother had always been generous, until this brother appeared, which reminded him of the stakes.

"This is Young Master Cheng." The man stared for a while, then walked over.

"You know me?" Luo Cheng wondered how the other party recognized him at a glance.

"Our Duanmu family is loyal to Da Luoyu. Who doesn't know him?" He exaggerated, obviously satirizing Luo Cheng, but these words were spoken very frankly, which made people feel that it was not simple. , unable to occur.

"Haven't asked for advice yet?"

"Duanmuxiong."

At the same time, Luo Cheng's stepmother, Duan Mushu, came gracefully, holding the baby in her arms, and said with a smile, "Luo Cheng, he is my elder brother."

Luo Cheng nodded and stared at each other, and sure enough, he found that the two were very similar in appearance, both had beautiful faces, but the woman looked beautiful, while the man was handsome.

"Master Cheng, I heard that there will be a group of thieves who want to take advantage of the fire. As the young master of the Luo family, you'd better be careful. After all, if they find out that you are still in the house, they may spare no effort to take you away." There was a smile on the corner of Duanmuxiong's mouth, and a teasing look in his eyes, looking forward to Luo Cheng's reaction.

But what was surprising was that Luo Cheng didn't have the slightest fear, and said calmly with a smile: "It's okay, maybe I can still contribute at that time."

Hearing his last words, Duanmuxiong showed disdain, he hadn't realized that Luo Cheng was already in the cultivation realm.

But before he could say something sarcastic, Mu Fan flashed up and laughed loudly: "Brother Duanmu doesn't know, Young Master Cheng is now in the cultivation realm."

"what?"

Duanmuxiong was obviously intimidated. He looked carefully at Luo Cheng's extremely young face, and then looked at the child in his sister's arms. He knew that his nephew had no hope of becoming a black iron-level power. patriarch.

Involuntarily, the sarcastic smile on his face disappeared, and it became a bit cold, and he said meanly: "Really? Then congratulations on becoming a young master, but don't be complacent, everything is possible, you are like your Uncle Mu, It's not good to be young and only at the peak of the early stage."

Hearing this, Luo Cheng frowned, and then saw Mu Fan's face flushed red with extreme embarrassment.

Mu Fan's situation is the origin of the patriarch's rule that the Luo family set up a 16-year-old who did not reach the Qi refining stage and could not inherit it.

The human body has a limit, just like a bottle, how much water it can hold is already determined, and this can be seen from a young age.

Some people are beginners in the middle stage of Peiyuanjing, but some are burly men, and some are old people over sixty years old. This is one of the manifestations of 'bottles'.

The bottle of a strong man can still hold water, and it can also be improved, compared to the old man, he can't do it.

Mu Fan's aptitude is not good, so at this age, the bottle is almost full, if he doesn't get the opportunity, he will be like this until he dies.

However, Mu Fan's role in the Luo family is no longer something that can be proved by strength, but his loyalty. In the Luo family, it can be said that he has worked hard and made great achievements.

Even Luo Cheng regarded him as an elder, so when he heard this Duanmuxiong insult him, he said without mercy: "Are people from the Duanmu family really like this?"

As soon as these words came out, all three people present were stunned, including Mu Fan.

Although Duan Muxiong's words were impolite, even Mu Fan couldn't say anything, one is that his cultivation level is higher now, and the other is that he still has to rely on him to deal with the robbers.

Duanmuxiong dared to say this because of these two points.

And Luo Cheng's words obviously meant to pursue responsibility, so it seemed a bit ridiculous.

Mu Fan next to him was extremely anxious, looking at Luo Cheng's appearance, he wanted Duan Muxiong to apologize, but the latter would definitely not do it, and when the matter became tense, the other party could just walk away.

But that happened to the Luo family.

"What? What does Young Master Cheng mean?" Duan Muxiong jokingly said, insinuating that Luo Cheng still wanted to do something to him.

"Apologize." Luo Cheng insisted.

This made Duanmuxiong a little surprised, wondering if Luo Cheng didn't understand the situation, and then sarcastically said: "I didn't expect the heir of a family to be so naive and stupid."

As soon as this remark came out, Luo Cheng's eyes flashed, he stepped forward, and stared at the other party.The body exudes a lingering aura, making the atmosphere dignified.

"You came to my Luo family, broke into my father's courtyard without notification, insulted members of my Luo family, and now you are disrespectful to the next patriarch of the Luo family. Do you, the Duanmu family, want to rebel?"

As the next patriarch, Luo Cheng's current position is not only related to the individual, but also to the entire Luo family. If he encounters a wall in front of this Duanmuxiong, the other party may spread this matter as a talking point in the future, which will affect him. reputation.

It's not that Luo Cheng attaches great importance to this, but that people's positions are different, and what they need to maintain is also different.

If you can't shock the other party now, if he becomes the patriarch in the future, the other party will not be convinced.

Even though Luo Cheng's aura was very captivating, Duan Muxiong's contempt made him not be affected too much, and he just laughed out loud after being startled.

"Master Cheng, if I don't apologize for my behavior, will you still have to beat me?"

Duan Muxiong mocked: "It doesn't matter, Luo Mansion has so many rules, so I will stay soon."

As he said that, he first talked to his sister, then strode out of the courtyard.

Mu Fan was secretly anxious, wanted to speak out to persuade Luo Cheng to stay, but was afraid of making Luo Cheng feel bad, so he could only stand there anxiously.

And at this moment, a manager of the Luo Mansion rushed in and shouted in panic, "Young Master Cheng, Steward Mu, something is wrong. A group of thieves came outside the city and were clamoring. There are more than 50 people, 30 There are more than 20 Qi-refining realms, more than [-] Yuan-Cultivating-levels, among them... there is also the middle-stage of Yuan-Cultivating Realm!"

When he said the last sentence, his face was full of horror, and he was even more helpless. Obviously, a mid-stage Yuanyuan cultivation was more difficult than any other conditions.

"Master Cheng, do you still want me to apologize?" Duan Muxiong, who was about to leave, turned around and said confidently.
