Lohr City in the Kingdom of Geshen is a first-class city. There are a total of more than a dozen such cities in the Kingdom of Geshen, and they are not very famous.
In Luoer City, there are a total of four major forces, namely Changyang Mansion, Tianling Family, Cheng Family, and Yan Family. These four major forces are the strongest forces in Luoer City, occupying the four directions of Luoer City, southeast and northwest respectively. Among the four major families, Changyang Mansion has the longest history. It has existed longer than the other three major forces. It is much older. It is said that not long after the Kingdom of Geshen was established and the city of Lore was just built, they were stationed here.
At this moment, in a luxuriously decorated room in the Changyang Mansion of the four major families in Luoer City, several pots of famous flowers displayed in the room exuded a faint fragrance, floating throughout the room, making people feel relaxed and happy after taking a sip.
In a large room, a woman in a white dress, who looked to be about thirty years old, was walking around the room uneasily. The woman had an extraordinary temperament and was elegant, even though she was over thirty years old. , but still retains a bit of the allure of the country.
"Fourth sister, are you there?" Suddenly, a knock on the door came from outside, and a soft voice came in from outside.
Hearing the sound, the woman walking around the room walked over and opened the door. Outside the door, she saw a beautiful woman who was also very beautiful and looked like she was no more than thirty years old.
"Second sister." Looking at the beautiful woman outside the door, the woman in a white dress said softly, and then stepped aside and invited the second sister who was standing outside the door to come in.
The middle-aged beauty who was called the second sister glanced at the woman in a white dress and said, "Fourth sister, I have noticed that you are not normal these days. Do you have something on your mind?"
The fourth sister sighed softly, her expression became very complicated, and she said softly: "Second sister, I have been feeling restless these past few days and it is difficult to calm down. Is there something going on recently?"
The second sister stared at the fourth sister for a while, then sighed softly and said: "Fourth sister, are you thinking about Xiangtian again?"
After hearing this, the fourth sister's expression suddenly became gloomy, she lowered her head and said nothing, her eyes showed deep longing and sadness, and there was also a layer of hazy mist in her eyes.
Seeing the fourth sister like this, the second sister also sighed in her heart and said calmly: "Fourth sister, don't be too sad. Xiangtian is extremely talented and blessed. He will definitely be blessed by God. It won't be long before He will come back." After saying this, the second sister's tone became lower and lower, obviously lacking confidence. Changyang Xiangtian left Changyang Mansion at the age of fifteen to wander outside alone, and also had to avoid the Huayun Sect's pursuit and the search for a large number of mercenaries. The risk factor was very high. It has been several years since Changyang Xiangtian left Changyang Mansion. During this period, Changyang Mansion also sent people to search for Changyang Xiangtian, but there was no news at all. Changyang Xiangtian seemed to have evaporated from the world, no matter Changyang There is no information about how many manpower the government has sent. Now in Changyang Mansion, everyone thinks that something unexpected has happened to Changyang Xiangtian.
Because Tianyuan Continent is so dangerous, there are killings everywhere. Even in cities with garrison maintenance orders, there are many hot-tempered mercenaries killing each other, and they fight whenever they disagree. There is no reason at all. , I speak entirely in terms of strength. In such an environment, everyone's hearts are clear as to how slim a fifteen-year-old child's hope of survival is.
The words of the second sister aroused the sadness in Biyuntian's heart. The mist in her eyes gathered more and more, and soon it came out of her eyes and flowed down her face. Biyuntian's body was sobbing slightly, and he said with tears in his eyes: "I don't know where Xiang'er is now and whether he can come back." There has been no news for such a long time, which makes Biyuntian very worried about whether his son Still alive in the world.
The second sister took Bi Yuntian to the bed and sat down. She sighed and said, "Fourth sister, don't think too much. You and I are not the same. This girl Mingyue has such a stubborn temper. Because I was dissatisfied with the engagement a year ago, I actually fled Changyang Mansion overnight. I still don’t know where this wild girl is. She is a girl wandering around, and I am more anxious than you."
"There is also the eldest sister Linglong. She is probably much sadder than the two of us. Ahu's limbs were cut off. From now on, even the most basic life will have to be taken care of, and she will become a complete useless person who can't do anything. , I really don’t know if Ahu can bear such a blow. Now, I am still worried that when Ahu wakes up, he will not be able to accept this fact and will be seeking death."
…
Outside Lore City, a light cyan light point quickly fell from high in the sky, landed in a jungle and disappeared. After several hours of flying, Jian Chen and Shen Fang, mother and son, finally arrived at Luoer City.
Jian Chen slowly walked out of the woods and stared blankly at the tall city wall ten miles ahead with a very complicated expression, because there was his home.
Although they have been separated for several years, Lore City still maintains its original appearance. The ancient city walls still have traces of time, which are difficult to wash away. At the city gate, scattered merchants were coming in and out. Perhaps because of the war, the number of merchants entering and exiting Lore City was much less than before. Even the defenders on the city gate were a few years old. The old, the frail, the young and the strong, have already been dragged to the front lines to fight.
Jian Chen stared at Luo Er City with complicated eyes for a long time, and then slowly walked over with Shen Fang and Ken Xiaosan, mother and son. There was no words all the way, and the atmosphere seemed a bit dull.
Now that the war has subsided, Jian Chen led the two mother and son into the city without any hindrance, then found an inn to temporarily settle the two mother and son, and then left here impatiently.
Not long after, Jian Chen arrived at the Changyang Mansion. The current Changyang Mansion has not changed much compared to a few years ago. The pink wall surrounds the Changyang Mansion. Several tall trees crossed the wall, and their lush branches and leaves spread out. When you come out, you feel like you are getting a glimpse of the outside world.
Jian Chen came to the gate of Changyang Mansion with mixed emotions. He saw that the gate of Changyang Mansion was tightly closed. There were no guards outside the door. It was even quieter inside, with no sound coming out. It was the same as a few years ago. Much cooler than that.
Jian Chen's spiritual consciousness immediately emitted, covering Changyang Mansion, and all the scenery in Changyang Mansion was imprinted in his mind like a picture.
There are very few people in Changyang Mansion now. There are less than fifty guards scattered around, and hundreds of servants and maids are busy inside. Compared with the thousands of people a few years ago, it is simply too cold. In a tower-shaped building in the backyard of Changyang Mansion, Jian Chen also discovered a familiar voice and shadow. It was the old man who guarded the arsenal back then. Jian Chen couldn't see through the old man's strength at all, but now he can He easily sensed the strength of the old man. He was a rank-4 Earth Saint Master and the only Earth Saint Master currently in Changyang Mansion.
Jian Chen came to the gate of Changyang Mansion, stretched out his hand and patted the heavy door, making a dull sound.
Not long after, the heavy door slowly opened, and a middle-aged man with an ordinary face appeared from inside. He looked at the door suspiciously and asked, "Boy, who are you looking for?" Although the middle-aged man didn't understand. Polite, but in a reasonably polite tone.
Jian Chen was silent, and pressed his palm lightly on the door with a little force. The thick door that opened a crack immediately opened wide, revealing the courtyard of Changyang Mansion.
"Who are you and what are you here for?" The middle-aged man's face became a little ugly, and he asked with sharp eyes, attracting a pair of guards patrolling here.
Jian Chen stood here with his head held high, looking at the scenery in Changyang Mansion with a complex expression, and murmured: "Do you still remember that there is a fourth young master in Changyang Mansion, named Changyang Xiangtian!" Jian Chen's eyes showed nostalgia. look.
"Where did the fourth young master come from, what Changyang Xiangtian? You kid are talking nonsense, who are you? Tell me your name immediately." The middle-aged man shouted with a sharp look. At this time, a group of guards from a distance had arrived. There were ten of them in total, wearing uniform uniforms. Except for three older middle-aged men, the rest were all young people in their thirties.
However, when the three older guards heard the words Changyang Xiangtian, their expressions changed, they looked at each other, and then they immediately broke away from the team and ran over quickly, their eyes tightly Staring at Jian Chen, one of them said in a deep voice: "Who are you? Have you seen Fourth Young Master Changyang Xiangtian?" There was a bit of urgency in his tone.
These three older guards have been in Changyang Mansion for a long time. They have all seen Changyang Xiangtian before, and a few years ago, Changyang Mansion also sent a large number of people to look for Changyang Xiangtian outside, and the three of them Ren happens to be one of them, so the three old guards are very sensitive to the four words Changyang Xiangtian.
Jian Chen did not speak, but glanced at the three guards and found that he did not recognize any of them. In fact, among the many guards in Changyang Mansion, Jian Chen did not recognize any of them.
The three guards stared closely at Jian Chen's resolute and handsome face. Suddenly one of them seemed to have thought of something, his eyes flashed, and he stared at Jian Chen in disbelief, and exclaimed: "You You look so similar to the Fourth Young Master, you...you...are you the Fourth Young Master Changyang Xiangtian?"
After hearing this, the other two guards who had seen Changyang Xiangtian were shocked and looked at Jian Chen carefully. Although Jian Chen had changed a lot over the years, he still retained a bit of the same appearance as before. Look, the guards felt that they looked more and more alike, and finally felt that the young man in front of them was Changyang Xiangtian, the fourth young master of Changyang Mansion.
The middle-aged man who opened the door glanced at Jian Chen with a puzzled expression. He had only been in Changyang Mansion for a short time and had never heard of Changyang Xiangtian's name at all.
Jian Chen felt bitter in his heart. He had been away from Changyang Mansion for too long. Several years had passed. He originally thought that Changyang Mansion had forgotten him, but he did not expect that there were guards who recognized him.
