Chapter 236 Summoning(1/2)
In thirty years, under the leadership of Chen Heng, the Zhang family has changed a lot.
Compared with thirty years ago, the Zhang family has long become a giant, second only to the three major factions in Yue Kingdom, and to a certain extent, it is not inferior to it.
At least in appearance, that's the case.
Such powerful strength naturally cannot be moved just by striking. Even if Hou Juan really has a connection with the demon cultivator, and even practices the demon cultivator, under normal circumstances, it will not affect the Zhang family's affairs.
After all, with the size of the Zhang family, it is no longer enough to take it away. Even a giant like Liuyun Sect needs to be concerned about the influence.
As long as Chen Heng does not come forward and cut off contact with Hou Juan, all the impact can be minimized.
But if so
Zhang Chong looked at Zhang Ya in front of him with anxiety, "Ya'er, do you think Hao'er will be for this woman?"
Zhang Ya's body paused, and at this time hesitation appeared on her face.
"This shouldn't be like this."
She spoke softly, only recalling Chen Heng's calm face, but she couldn't help but feel uncertain at this time.
To others, it is obviously unwise to oppose a behemoth like Liuyun Sect for the sake of one person.
What a wise man does not do.
But if it were Chen Heng, it might not be.
Zhang Ya had never guessed what the other party thought about her clan brother.
She also guessed what the other party was thinking.
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but sigh, and at this time she finally understood why Zhang Chong rushed over.
Obviously, he also knew Chen Heng very well and was a little afraid of what Chen Heng did.
The two of them faced each other, and then couldn't help but sigh.
Despite their worries, at this moment, they actually had nothing to do.
The initiative in the matter is not with them.
The only thing they can do is to advise Chen Heng not to be too impulsive.
Next, time passes slowly.
News about Hou Juan gradually spread throughout the Zhang family, which caused a panic at first, but soon became calm.
The occurrence of this incident only gave Zhang family members more topics of conversation, and did not have much impact on their lives.
It was just that in secret, the invisible influence continued to be exerted, but it was hidden and could not be clearly seen.
Time continues to pass.
Soon, a month passed.
During the past month, Chen Heng was very calm about Hou Juan's affairs, and he was still as calm as before every day. He was drinking tea there and occasionally refining a few magic tools, which seemed to be no different from the past.
And his behavior was also very calm, and he seemed not to take Hou Juan's affairs seriously.
Zhang Chong and others couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when they secretly observed Chen Heng's performance. At this time, the previous worries gradually faded.
Judging from this, Chen Heng should not take the initiative to come to Hou Juan to do something.
However, what they didn't expect was that Chen Heng did not take the initiative to express his opinion and did something, but the people from Liuyun Sect came.
"The Zhang family in Jiufeng is indeed well-known."
Walking in Jiufeng City, a middle-aged monk strolled here, looking at the prosperous scene everywhere, and couldn't help but smile on his face.
Behind him, several monks followed him, just like him, and were also looking around.
"Is this Jiufeng City?"
Following the middle-aged monk, a girl showed a look of surprise on her face: "It seems very prosperous, and it is not bad at all compared to outside the Liuyun Sect."
“What a great place.”
The other people looked around and felt the figures of monks and the lively atmosphere around them. At this time, they couldn't help but feel a little hot.
"This is Jiufeng City, and it is also the foundation of the Zhang family."
Looking around, the middle-aged monk who led the team smiled and then said, "This is also the core of the Zhang family. It is said that it was just an ordinary city, but in the end the head of the Zhang family was forced to develop into this step. It is really amazing."
"But this place will soon be ours."
He looked around and an inexplicable smile appeared on his face.
"Will the Zhang family really hand over such a prosperous place?"
Following the middle-aged monk, the girl who had spoken before showed a look of surprise on her face: "If it were me, I would definitely not be able to bear it."
"In such a prosperous place, there are probably a lot of spirit stones that are recorded every year. If it is a normal situation, who would be willing to give up?"
The middle-aged monk smiled, then sneered again on his face: "But now, this situation is beyond his control."
"Elder He and the others have already discussed it."
"The Zhang family is definitely unable to escape the birth of the demon cultivator this time, and maybe there are demon cultivators hidden in it."
"What if he wants to not hand over?"
The middle-aged monk looked around, his face turned cold, and he spoke.
Around him, the other monks listened to this and did not say anything, but just nodded silently.
They knew very well about their purpose this time, and they didn't need to say anything more at this moment.
Walking forward from the street, soon, the people belonging to the Zhang family stepped forward and led a few people to the Zhang family's residence.
"It's been a long time since."
In the courtyard, people everywhere sat everywhere.
In this room, Zhang Chong, Zhang Ya and others were sitting here, and some of the core tribe members of the Zhang family were all here at this moment.
Opposite them, middle-aged monks and others were sitting there, with a smile on their faces at this moment.
"I wonder what important things are there for several envoys to come?"
Looking at the middle-aged monk sitting upright in front of him, Zhang Chong forced a smile on his face, raised the spiritual tea in his hand, and asked.
"The old patriarch knows what I'm here, so why bother asking more questions?"
Sitting upright opposite Zhang Chong, listening to Zhang Chong's words, the middle-aged monk smiled and laughed softly: "The fact that Hou Juan practiced demon skills and swallowed people's souls has spread a lot at this moment."
After the words came to an end, everyone present in the Zhang family, including Zhang Chong and Zhang Ya, couldn't help but tremble.
"This messenger was joking."
Zhang Chong's hands couldn't help but tremble, but they quickly returned to normal, and a smile appeared on his face: "Hou Juan is just an outsider, and he is not from my Zhang family. What does it have to do with my Zhang family?"
"good!"
"This is just a person with a foreign surname. What does it have to do with my Zhang family?"
Around Zhang Chong, the rest of the Zhang family members spoke out and left all their relationships cleared.
Sitting opposite Zhang Chong, listening to these words, the middle-aged monk did not say anything, just smiled without saying a word, and looked at Zhang Chong quietly.
"As far as we know, the demon disciple Hou Juan seems to have a very friendly relationship with your Zhang family, right?"
The middle-aged monk did not speak, but beside the middle-aged monk, the girl who had been before smiled and asked at the people opposite him.
"It's just some ordinary relationships."
Zhang Chong shook his head, then spoke, "I am the younger generation and this demon disciples who are in the same group as the noble sect, so it is very normal for me to know each other."
"But there are quite a few people he knows in the entire Liuyun Sect, which doesn't seem to be anything."
Looking at the middle-aged man, he spoke.
"Of course there are many people who know this demon disciple, but they are just kind to him and even treat him as his disciples and clan members. But it's your Zhang family."
In front of him, the middle-aged man sighed, then smiled, and spoke with a pointing voice: "Your patriarch, your relationship with this demon disciple is unusual."
"The devil is in prison, but he has revealed a lot of news about you."
"Damn it!"
Listening to the middle-aged man's words, Zhang Chong couldn't help but grit his teeth.
Hou Juan is already in the hands of Liuyun Sect at this moment.
With the means of a monk, even if Hou Juan explains everything at this moment, it is probably normal.
In addition, in the past, the Zhang family has not concealed the existence of Hou Juan and others. As long as they are willing, it is very easy to investigate.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but sigh, and then said, "The affairs of the Demonic Puppet Hou Juan have nothing to do with my Zhang family."
"With that being said, how can you win the trust of others by speaking in vernacular?"
The middle-aged monk's smile even more, and he said softly: "I heard that not only the demon disciple, but also many people who practice demon skills are hidden in the Zhang family."
"This is absolutely impossible!"
