Chapter 220 Relic
In the quiet and spacious room, looking at Chen Changming sitting in front of him, Chen Jing sighed softly.
If Chen Changming is just an alchemist in front of him, no matter what he says this time, he will not let Chen Changming leave.
It's just that Chen Changming in front of him is not only an excellent alchemist, but also possesses extremely powerful strength.
That kind of strength is unmatched in the entire Chen family, and ordinary warriors with pregnant bodies are nothing in front of him.
Strength is the best passport.
Chen Changming has such strength in his body, and the things he decides cannot be questioned by others.
Even the head of the family, Chen Jing, is the same.
As the head of the family, he is well-informed, so he can naturally see that Chen Changming's heart is not here, and it is impossible for him to stay in Jiufeng City for a long time.
Rather than forcefully restricting it here and causing some contradictions, it is better to let it go and let it go.
And, that's not necessarily a bad thing.
Judging from Chen Changming's current strength, the world is so big, where can't he go?
He has been able to get to this level at a young age, once he goes to the outside world, he will have a wider world, and his future achievements will be limitless.
If there is that day, the Chen family may be able to achieve glory in his hands, and it is not certain.
For these, before that, Chen Jing had already thought very clearly.
"You and your uncle lead people away from Peak Nine, and then go to other places to open up a branch."
Looking at Chen Changming, Chen Jing sighed softly: "With you here, I don't have to worry about you."
Chen Changming is not only powerful, but also an alchemist himself.
With people like him around, plus some of the power taken away from the Chen family, there is no need to worry about Chen Yiming and the others.
"Nine Peaks City, you don't have to worry about anything."
Looking at Chen Changming, he continued to speak, saying: "After yesterday's battle, most of the elders of Liu's family have been captured at this moment, and the rest of them can't turn the tide."
"After this battle, although they are still there, some things are destined to be unstoppable, and they will just be slaughtered by others from now on."
When he spoke like this, his voice seemed very cold.
"You don't have to do anything wrong."
Chen Changming spoke softly, and said: "It's okay to annex it, but for those ordinary people, there is no need to massacre them."
"Naturally."
Chen Jing nodded and had no objection to this.
This is very natural.
The size of the Liu family is not much different from that of the Chen family, and there are thousands of households in the family.
With so many people, if all of them were to be killed, it would be a river of blood. Not to mention how many killings were caused, it would be a pity that these people died directly.
According to the past practice, it would not really slaughter its entire family, at most it would just annex it and bring it under its own command.
The Chen family has only a few thousand members, but they can mobilize thousands of troops. Many of them came here in this way.
With Liu's previous size, if the Chen family can really annex it, they will surely become the strongest force near Jiufeng City in one fell swoop.
"There's no need to worry about the rest of them."
Chen Changming said softly: "Before we leave, brother Ziling and I will take action and take care of it."
In the vicinity of Jiufeng City, besides the Liu family and the Chen family, there are many other families of martial arts.
The strength of these martial arts families is also good. Although they are not as strong as the Chen family and the Liu family, they are not too thick. They occupy some nearby territories and have been rooted there for countless years.
But for Chen Changming today, these people are pitifully weak, but they can be dealt with easily.
The reason why I didn't do it before was because I just returned and I haven't fully adapted yet.
And at this moment, since he was ready to leave, Chen Changming naturally had nothing to worry about.
Before leaving, just beat up the people around you.
"It's so good."
Listening to Chen Changming's words, a smile finally appeared on Chen Jing's face, and there was a little more joy and excitement on his face at this time.
It has been the long-cherished wish of the Chen family for many years to resolve the rest of the surrounding forces and unify the Jiufeng City area.
But this time, with Chen Changming and Chen Ziling, the Chen family's wish for many years seems to finally come true.
Even, not only that.
From the previous Chen Xinrou, Chen Changming also acquired a lot of martial arts, including the profound arts used by practitioners.
These things were nothing to Chen Xinrou before, and even more so to Chen Changming today, but it didn't mean they were worthless.
In fact, these things are of great value, especially for the Chen family at this moment.
At least, with these things in hand, the Chen family's original ancestral boxing technique can be replaced.
Even from now on, if someone in the Chen family can possess spiritual roots, they can also use the few profound arts left by Qi Jing to practice, and from then on, they can walk on the road of being close to immortals.
For the Chen family, this is undoubtedly a great harvest, and there is a glimmer of hope to become a family of near immortals in the future.
Moreover, during this period of time, Chen Changming has also gained some gains in his own deduction of the method, and now he has improved the methods such as the golden body of the king of heaven to make them adapt to the rules of the world.
These things will also be left behind after he leaves, and become part of the heritage of the Chen family.
With these things, as long as there are no accidents, the road to the future rise of the Chen family has been paved.
It only takes a suitable time to rush forward.
Standing in place, Chen Changming and Chen Jing continued to chat for a while, then turned around and walked outside.
He didn't take a few steps, his expression moved slightly, and he walked towards a certain place.
Soon, he came to a hall.
The hall looks very spacious and atmospheric, and there is a faint aroma lingering around it, accompanied by a scent of incense.
And in the center of the hall, rows of seats are arranged on it, one by one.
This place is nothing but the ancestral hall of the Chen family, and the places on it are the rankings of the ancestors of the Chen family.
In the past, Chen Changming seldom visited this place. Except for a few special times every year, he rarely visited it.
The reason why I came here at this moment is not for this reason, but just to see one of them.
"Brother Ziling."
Stepping into the ancestral hall, he looked at a young man in front of him and said softly.
In the center of the ancestral hall, a young man in white was standing there, facing the many tablets in front of him at the moment, with his back to Chen Changming.
For some reason, looking at Chen Ziling's back, Chen Changming could always feel a unique aura, a little lonely and lonely.
"Chang Ming, you're here."
Standing there, as if sensing Chen Changming's arrival, Chen Ziling turned around and looked at Chen Changming behind him.
Different from the past, this time, his face looked a little complicated. Looking at Chen Changming, he couldn't calm down for a long time.
After a long while, he barely calmed down, and sighed softly: "I thought that as long as my strength is enough, I can protect Chang Ming, and you will be safe all your life."
"I never thought about it, not only can't, but in the end I even have to ask you to help"
Looking at Chen Changming, he said with a complex expression.
"Brother Ziling"
Looking at Chen Ziling, Chen Changming's heart skipped a beat, as if he had thought of something.
"Not much to say."
Chen Ziling shook his head: "When did it start?"
"A long time ago"
Chen Changming was silent for a moment, and then said: "It started a long time ago."
He knew what Chen Ziling meant, and he just asked him when he started to practice, and when he reached the current stage.
It's just that he really couldn't answer this question, he just described it as very early, and couldn't elaborate.
Fortunately, Chen Ziling didn't ask carefully.
"fair enough"
Chen Ziling sighed softly: "Actually, ever since I discovered that you possess spiritual wisdom, I wanted to give you something."
"It's just because of your mother's account before her death that she has been hesitating."
"But I never thought that you have come to this point alone without my knowledge."
With a complex expression on his face, he said so.
"My mother?"
Hearing Chen Ziling's words, Chen Changming paused, and couldn't help being taken aback.
"You really don't know."
Observing Chen Changming's performance, Chen Ziling shook his head: "The inheritance of mystic arts is what your mother left for me."
"Your mother is actually a near-immortal."
"A near immortal?"
Chen Changming frowned, subconsciously began to recall.
His mother in this life had already died when he was four or five years old, so the memories left behind were not many, and were extremely vague.
However, from his limited fuzzy memory, Chen Changming couldn't see anything, couldn't find anything wrong.
Of course, it is possible that Chen Changming's mother concealed it very well, which led to this result.
But the reaction of the people around is also not right.
If Chen Changming's mother is really a person close to immortality, then no matter how strong she is, she should at least be very unique in her status.
But in the Chen family, Chen Changming's mother was very ordinary, just an ordinary woman, nothing special at all.
At least in the past, even if others talked about Chen Changming's elders, they would at most mention Chen Yiming, the elder of the Chen family, and never mention Chen Changming's mother.
"Your mother, when she returned to the Chen family, she was seriously injured and lost all her cultivation."
As if understanding Chen Changming's thoughts, Chen Ziling sighed softly, then continued to speak, and said slowly: "When you were three years old, your mother discovered that I possessed spiritual wisdom, so she handed over the inheritance of mystic skills to me. At the same time, let me secretly protect you so that you can spend this life safely."
"in this way."
Chen Changming thought for a moment, then raised his head: "Brother Ziling, you said before, what was my mother's confession before her death?"
"good."
Chen Ziling nodded: "Before your mother passed away, she told me that in addition to letting me protect you through this life, she also told me not to pass on the inheritance of mystic skills to you."
"Her original intention seems to be that she doesn't want you to go on this path, she just wants you to spend your life as an ordinary person."
"So, after discovering the spiritual wisdom in you, I was hesitating before"
He opened his mouth softly and said so.
"Is that so?"
Listening to Chen Ziling's words, Chen Changming nodded without doubting it.
If it was an ordinary person, he might still have doubts, but for Chen Ziling, there was no need for this.
Growing up together is one of them, and more importantly, among the names displayed on the projection interface, Chen Ziling is impressively listed.
Since it was in the name of the projection, it actually showed Chen Ziling's reliability to a certain extent.
His words are naturally credible to a certain extent.
"Not bad, that's fine"
In front of him, Chen Ziling's voice sounded again.
Standing in front of Chen Changming, he took out a golden lock from his pocket, carefully stretched out his hand, and placed it in front of Chen Changming.
The golden lock doesn't look big, but it looks very small, and there are densely embroidered fine textures on it, which looks very delicate.
Chen Changming took the golden lock and looked at it casually.
There is also a word engraved on this golden lock.
"Qin"
Chen Changming recognized the writing on it, and said softly.
What he said surprised Chen Ziling in front of him.
"Chang Ming, do you recognize Yuan Wen?"
He was a little surprised and said so.
The characters on the golden lock are not from the Jiufeng City area, but an even older Yuanzhou language.
Before that, even Chen Ziling couldn't recognize the words on it, but now Chen Changming recognized it all at once.
"Just dabbled a bit."
Chen Changming nodded and said softly.
Of course, he has never learned this so-called Yuanzhou ancient language.
It's just that when he projected Qi Jing before, he happened to have obtained this inheritance.
I thought that this type of inheritance was mostly useless, but now it just comes in handy.
"That would be nice."
Chen Ziling sighed, and then continued: "This golden lock is a relic left to me by your mother, and it contains a copy of the inheritance of Xuangong."
"Now it's back to its original owner."
"Relic."
Chen Changming put the golden lock in his palm and stroked the golden lock slowly.
Through the spiritual power in his body, he could feel the vibration of the golden lock in front of him, and he could feel that unique aura.
Inside the golden lock, there is something hidden, as long as there is enough spiritual power, it can be touched, and some information and inheritance can be obtained from it.
"The one who is close to the immortal."
Standing there, Chen Changming thought for a moment, then continued to look up at Chen Ziling in front of him.
"What about my father?"
Looking at Chen Ziling, he asked softly.
In Chen Changming's original memory, his mother was just an ordinary person, and his father was just an ordinary warrior who was killed by accident and died outside.
But it now appears that this should not be the case.
If Chen Changming's mother was really a near-immortal, how could she think of an ordinary warrior?
From this point of view, then Chen Changming's father is also very likely to be a near-immortal.
"I have no idea."
However, facing Chen Changming's gaze, Chen Ziling shook his head: "I don't know much."
"When your mother died, I was only seven or eight years old, just a child."
"And back then, your father never mentioned anything related to your father."
"I can probably feel that Changming, your mother probably doesn't have a good relationship with your father."
Standing there, he thought about it carefully, and after hesitating for a moment, he spoke like this.
"Relationship. Not good?"
Chen Changming frowned, and couldn't help being a little surprised at this moment.
Looking at it like this, in those days, there must have been many unknown stories, and there were also many unknown wonderful things.
It's just that Chen Changming is destined to have no way of knowing all of this at this time when he passed away. He only speculates about it through some clues.
Standing where he was, he was silent for a moment, and instead of talking about another topic, he asked, "Brother Ziling, what are you going to do next?"
"I originally planned to stay here, just to protect you for the rest of my life."
Chen Ziling raised his head and looked at Chen Changming: "But now it seems that there is no need."
"Chang Ming, your strength has surpassed mine."
Looking at Chen Changming, he spoke softly, with some relief in his voice, and an inexplicable sense of loss.
"But in this case, I can leave with peace of mind."
Not long after that, a smile appeared on his face, and he spoke like this.
"It's okay to leave"
Chen Changming hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded.
Indeed, it is good to leave.
Although Jiufeng City is good, it is still too small.
For this place, the pregnant body is already top-notch, and the transparent state is even more legendary.
Being here, after reaching a certain level, you will be constrained by the environment, making progress more and more difficult.
With Chen Ziling's strength in front of him, he should have left long ago.
And on the other hand, he really should go.
Maybe he didn't know it himself, but Chen Changming could see it clearly, this is a man with a destiny.
Chen Ziling bears the destiny, and this life is destined to be extraordinary.
After all, the opportunities and resources in Nine Peaks City are limited.
If he stayed here all the time, it would only limit Chen Ziling's achievements, making him unable to grow because of his destiny.
For him, leaving is actually a good thing.
Of course, the same is true for Chen Changming, and even Liu Yanqi and others.
Jiufeng City is too small, it is destined to be just a springboard for those who bear the destiny, and it is doomed to be impossible to stay here for a long time.
Chen Ziling might have thought of leaving early in the past, but he didn't leave because he was worried about Chen Changming.
But now, Chen Changming has shown strength beyond him, so he can naturally rest assured that he can leave with peace of mind.
"But doing the math, it seems that I wasted his time."
Standing where he was, this thought suddenly flashed through Chen Changming's mind.
According to the original situation, without his time travel, the predecessor of his body should have died more than a year ago.
After his death, Chen Ziling naturally had no reason to stay and could leave safely.
But it was precisely because he did not die normally that Chen Ziling continued to stay here for more than a year.
From this point of view, Chen Changming wasted the other party's time.
At this thought, Chen Changming couldn't help shaking his head.
