"Young Master praised me."
Zhao Zhen said calmly, but still stared at Xiao Guanlan, "So what is the reason?"
"Yes, there is a special reason for choosing you, but I can't say the reason now. What I can say is that I won't harm you, and I don't dare to harm you."
Xiao Guanlan's smile faded again, and she looked at Zhao Zhen seriously and said, "So you just need to believe me. You will know the rest when you need to know in the future."
Hearing this, Zhao Zhen frowned.
He didn't like the feeling of being kept in the dark.
But he knew he had no choice.
Just like what Xiao Guanlan said, Xiao Guanlan needed him, and he also needed Xiao Guanlan, otherwise he wouldn't be able to protect Yun Duo and the others.
"All right."
Zhao Zhen relaxed his brows and nodded, "Next, I will do my best."
"Haha, okay, then I will take good care of you."
Xiao Guanlan smiled, picked up the teacup, and signaled to Zhao Zhen, who also picked up the teacup and drank it all in one gulp.
"Okay, you can go back and have a good rest after you go back. In a few days, the imperial court will issue your transfer order. At that time, you will go to Fengxue City to practice as a representative of Guanlantang Military Academy."
"Heading to Snowstorm City?"
Zhao Zhen was stunned.
"Yes, since the second prince of the Hanxue Dynasty failed to attack Fengxue City, this time they have gathered their troops again to attack Fengxue City. This is an opportunity for you to gain experience. I believe that with your His talent will improve quickly in the war."
Xiao Guanlan said, "At the same time, this is also an opportunity for you to make meritorious deeds. As long as you have meritorious deeds, you will be able to take power, so that you can truly fight against Zhou Jingshen and the others."
"Understood."
Zhao Zhen nodded, then raised his hands and stood up to leave.
But just when Zhao Zhen was about to walk out of the door, suddenly, Xiao Guanlan's voice sounded again.
"By the way, you can also bring the people from the Bingyan Sect that you have gathered, because the one who leads the troops to attack Snow Wind City this time is the eldest prince of the Hanxue Dynasty. I don't think they will refuse."
Hearing this, Zhao Zhen paused, but did not turn around. He just nodded and left again.
But when he completely walked out of the building, a cold light flashed in his eyes.
He knew that Xiao Guanlan's words sounded like a reminder, but in fact they were saying that Xiao Guanlan knew all his movements.
This is already a threat, which means that Zhao Zhen will protect Zhao Zhen when he works for him, but if Zhao Zhen dares to have other thoughts, he can deal with Zhao Zhen at any time.
"Hehe... Xiao Guanlan is such a good person. His methods are really high. He is just a threat. Everything he said is just right. But this is fine. Cooperating with a person with high methods is much better than cooperating with a fool."
He sneered in his heart, and the cold light in Zhao Zhen's eyes became stronger and stronger.
He knew that the relationship between him and Xiao Guanlan was to use each other.
It just so happened that Xiao Guanlan lacked a spoiler, and he was a spoiler himself with the hatred. At the same time, he could use Xiao Guanlan's influence to protect himself in exchange for space and time for growth.
How could Zhao Zhen not be happy with such a perfect match?
"The only problem now is that I don't know the real reason why he chose me, but that's not important. Again, as long as you are strong enough, all secrets are no longer secrets. Then I just need to continue to become stronger. That’s good.”
Talking to himself, Zhao Zhen clenched his fists in his sleeves and left Qilin Tower directly.
In the balcony, Xiao Guanlan looked at Zhao Zhen's leaving figure with a smile on his face.
"Brother, you seem very happy?"
Suddenly, a soft voice sounded, but it was Li Yichen who had left before and suddenly returned.
"Huh? Yichen, why are you back? Where is Junior Brother Hua?"
Xiao Guanlan was stunned.
"I said I was a little hungry, and he immediately said that he would personally prepare the best banquet for me. He should be busy in various restaurants now."
Li Yichen smiled.
"Haha, you."
Xiao Guanlan laughed, and then nodded, "Yes, I am indeed in a good mood. After all, I have found a person who can break the situation. If we brothers and sisters want to reverse the situation in the future, it depends on him."
"he?"
Li Yichen was stunned, "Brother, why do you value him so much? Even if he is excellent, he is only in the martial spirit realm. How can he help us?"
"Haha, with the speed of his progress, he will no longer be able to stay in Wuling territory soon."
Xiao Guanlan smiled and shook his head, "Besides, his identity is very special."
"What identity?"
"His father's name is Zhao Xuan, and her mother's surname is Hua."
A flash of light flashed in Xiao Guanlan's eyes.
"Hua Rong!"
Li Yichen's pupils shrank and Xiao Guanlan nodded slightly.
This made Li Yichen look surprised. No wonder her brother valued Zhao Zhen so much.
Since he is the son of that legendary couple, he is indeed qualified to change their situation!
At this moment, in Longjing West City, in the backyard of an inn.
The whistling cold wind kept coming, and I saw young people in the martial arts realm practicing their own martial arts in the courtyard, each of them looking very focused and serious.
At the gate of the courtyard, a girl wearing black clothes was standing here, looking at everyone in the courtyard seriously.
From time to time, she would call out a person's name and point out some mistakes in some moves, and the young people whose mistakes were corrected would immediately learn their lesson and continue practicing afterwards.
"Remember, we are a group of people with no way out."
At this time, the girl in black said coldly, "There is no way out, which means we can only move forward! And if we want to keep moving forward, we need to keep strengthening our own strength! Keep improving our martial arts!"
"So even if you think you have practiced your martial arts to the extreme, you still have to practice and keep improving!"
“Because only by always maintaining an attitude of striving for excellence can we make progress all the time!”
Hearing this, the young people in the martial arts arena also shouted, "Yes, Miss!"
"Well, keep going! Don't stop until you're exhausted!"
The girl in black shouted again, and then stood up, as if she was about to start practicing.
But at this moment, a figure in a blue robe suddenly appeared at the door, and laughter rang out, "Haha, that's right, striving for excellence is the only way to continue to become stronger."
Hearing this, the girl in black suddenly froze, and all the young people who were practicing martial arts in the courtyard also stopped and looked over.
The person who came was none other than Zhao Zhen!
When they saw Zhao Zhen coming, those young people all had ugly expressions. After all, Zhao Zhen had humiliated them too directly before, saying that they were lost dogs, so how could they have a good expression?
Hanmei's eyes were solemn, and she directly cupped her fists and said, "Senior Brother Zhao."
Seeing the eldest lady saluting, the young men could only salute with clasped fists, and called out to Senior Brother Zhao sparsely.
Such a scene naturally made Zhao Zhen laugh, but Han Mei frowned, as if she wanted to turn around and scold him.
"It doesn't matter, as I said before, I don't need extra flattery, I just need absolute obedience."
Zhao Zhen waved his hand, which made Hanmei give up the idea of scolding him and nodded, "I wonder what Senior Brother Zhao's orders are when he comes this time?"
"In a while, you will follow me to the battlefield of Snow Wind City."
Zhao Zhen said something directly, which made everyone in the courtyard change their expressions.
As former disciples of the Ice Flame Sect, they certainly knew that Snow Wind City was the border gate of the Shenlong Dynasty, and it was also the battleground between their Hanxue Dynasty and the Shenlong Dynasty!
Some of them even participated in the war against Snow Wind City.
But now, they want to help Shenlong Dynasty fight against Hanxue Dynasty.
This taste naturally made them very uncomfortable.
Even Hanmei's expression changed, as if she didn't expect Zhao Zhenlai to be involved in this.
But she was the Bingyan Sect's last hope. After just one breath, she nodded, "Yes, we understand, and we will prepare well."
As soon as these words came out, the expressions of the Bingyan Sect disciples changed again, and one of the young men couldn't help but said, "Miss, that's from the Hanxue Dynasty."
"What happened to the people of Hanxue Dynasty?"
Hanmei said coldly, "Do you still think that you are from Hanxue Dynasty?"
All the young people looked stiff!
"Recognize your situation! To put it bluntly, we are not members of any dynasty now! We are just a group of bereaved dogs struggling to survive!"
Hanmei glanced at the audience and said coldly, "Even if we think that we are from the Hanxue Dynasty, the Hanxue Dynasty will not admit it! Because if they admit it, then they will not want us in the first place, let alone They won’t hunt us down!”
"But...but that's because of the eldest prince..."
"It's the same for everyone!"
Hanmei shouted again, staring at the young man and saying, "Do you think it was because the second prince was thinking behind closed doors that the eldest prince attacked us?"
The young man who spoke was stunned, but nodded involuntarily.
"madness!"
Hanmei's expression was grim, "Even if the second prince was punished to think about his mistakes behind closed doors, but the courtiers loyal to the second prince are still there, why didn't they stop him? Even if they didn't dare to confront the eldest prince head-on, they could still help us secretly, but Why don’t they lend a helping hand!”
As soon as these words came out, the young man was speechless.
"The reason is very simple, that is, we are treated as abandoned sons by the second prince! We are treated as abandoned sons by the imperial court, and even more so by the Hanxue Dynasty!"
Hanmei shouted decisively, which made all the young people in the field pale.
"And since you are an abandoned child, you must have the consciousness of being an abandoned child! If you still think about the past, you will not be able to face the future, let alone survive!"
Hanmei said coldly, "So in order to survive, we can only abandon the past and live in the present! And if we want to live in the present, we can only obey the orders of Senior Brother Zhao! Do you understand!"
After hearing these words, all the young people turned pale and had complicated eyes.
But in the end, their eyes were fierce again!
