Seeing Su Chen again, Ning Yan felt mixed emotions in her heart.
What was once her childhood playmate has now grown to the point where she is out of reach.
The Su family controls the five major cities. According to the news from Mingyue City, Su Chen of the Su family is still a powerful monk in the Guiyuan realm.
Now Su Chen, regardless of strength or status, is far away from her.
Su Chen smiled and asked: "How are you, how have you been lately? I never came to Pingyang City, why didn't you say you came to Mingyue City to find me."
Ning Yan suddenly smiled bitterly. Faced with this question, she didn't know how to answer it for a while.
In fact, after returning to the main family, Ning Yan and his descendants' life was not very good, and they were always suppressed and targeted.
And it was the Ning family's eldest elder who asked them to come back.
Ning Yan's father managed Mingyue City's business in an orderly manner, and the scale even increased by nearly ten times. Perhaps it was because of this that the direct descendants wanted to steal their achievements.
Since returning to Ning's house, he has to report every time he leaves Ning's house, so he doesn't have the chance to see Su Chen.
Seeing her appearance, Su Chen suddenly asked curiously:
"What's wrong? Are you being bullied?"
When Ning Yan heard these words, her heart suddenly trembled slightly. When they were in Mingyue City, every time she was scolded by her parents, she would go to Su Chen to talk to her, and then she would cry there.
And Su Chen would ask this question every time.
Were you bullied?
To this day, Ning Yan can still vaguely remember Su Chen's appearance at that time, a little angry and a little worried.
For some reason, Ning Yan only felt warm in her heart. She shook her head and said:
"It's okay, everything is fine."
As she spoke, she stood up with a smile on her face.
"Wait for me first. I will take you to Pingyang City later. We haven't seen each other for so long. I will take you to have a good meal later."
Seeing that he was unwilling to say anything, Su Chen didn't ask, just nodded and said: "Okay."
Ning Yan walked out of the reception hall. Not long after, she turned back again and said with a smile on her face:
"Let's go, Su Chen."
Su Chen stood up, and the two of them prepared to leave Ning's house.
Before arriving at Ning's house, Su Chen had imagined Ning Yan's attitude towards her, which might include awe, fear, flattery, etc.
But he didn't expect Ning Yan to have any of these emotions towards him, only...happy. He could clearly feel that Ning Yan was very happy.
Very pure happiness.
Just when the two were about to walk out of Ning's house, a cold chuckle sounded.
"Ning Yan, stop here."
When Ning Yan heard this, his expression suddenly changed. He turned his head and looked in the direction of the source of the sound, only to see a young man with an unruly face looking at him coldly.
Ning Lin.
This man is the son of the great elder. He may have been instructed by the great elder to bully her.
Ning Lin walked forward slowly and scolded: "Go back, who asked you to come out?"
Under normal circumstances, Ning Yan might have endured it.
But Su Chen was around today, maybe because she didn't want him to see her predicament, so Ning Yan was filled with anger.
"The third elder has agreed for me to go out, why do you care about me?"
Ning Lin's eyes suddenly widened. He walked up in two steps and raised his hand to swipe Ning Yan's face: "If you dare to talk back, you're looking for a beating!"
But before he could hit Ning Yan, he was stopped by Su Chen on the side.
When Ning Lin saw that Su Chen dared to stop him, anger suddenly appeared on his face: "Where does this bastard come from? He even dares to interfere with my Ning family's affairs. He is looking for death!"
As he spoke, his cultivation in the late stage of foundation building burst out. He wanted to break free from Su Chen's hand, but found that he couldn't do it at all.
Su Chen's hands were like iron pliers, locking him tightly.
Ning Lin saw that he couldn't get away, so he became angry and said: "Damn it, let me go, or I will kill you today."
Su Chen gently pushed out his palm, and Ning Lin flew upside down like a kite with a broken string, and fell to the ground. Blood spurted from his mouth, and his breath was extremely weak.
"roll!"
If he hadn't seen that Ning Lin was a member of Ning Yan's tribe, he would have killed him directly and even let him dance around here.
At the same time, a powerful aura erupted in the Ning family, and a figure quickly appeared in front of several people.
The person who came was none other than Ning Wei, the eldest elder of the Ning family.
When Ning Lin saw him, he immediately shouted excitedly: "Dad, if he dares to hurt me, kill him quickly."
Ning Wei first glanced at Ning Lin and ordered his servants to take him for treatment. Then he looked at Su Chen and said with a cold face: "You are really brave to hurt me, a direct descendant of the Ning family."
After saying that, he looked at Ning Yan again.
"Ning Yan, did you bring this person into the Ning family?"
Looking at Ning Wei, Ning Yan's eyes flashed with fear, and she said hesitantly: "Great Elder, this is my friend, and it was Young Master Ning Lin who attacked me first. He wouldn't let me leave. Ning family."
"presumptuous!"
Ning Wei immediately yelled angrily. He was furious, especially when he saw his son being beaten seriously. He was a little crazy.
If he had to worry about the face of the entire branch, he would have just slapped Ning Yan to death.
"Ning Lin is a direct descendant, and you are a collateral descendant. You can do whatever is asked of you. It doesn't matter if the third elder agrees. Ning Lin said you are not allowed to leave the Ning family, so you are not allowed."
"Besides, you are going to marry a member of the Xu family, and you are still hanging out with other men. What are you talking about?"
"Ning Feng has been imprisoned in the dungeon because of you. Don't you want your mother to go down with her? Go back and marry into the Xu family in half a month."
Hearing the great elder's indifferent words, Ning Yan lowered his head and his eyes turned red.
Ning Feng is his father!
Six months ago, Ning Wei designed to frame her father and force her to marry into the Xu family.
The Xu family is the top power in Pingyang City, with three gods in charge. The fourth young master of the Xu family has always liked her, so Ning Wei used her to please him.
Naturally, Ning Yan was not willing to marry the fourth young master of the Xu family, but due to her parents' reasons, she was forced to agree to the elder.
Thinking of this, Ning Yan felt a wave of grievances in her heart for no reason.
It was clear that he had done nothing wrong, and the same was true for his family, but he was targeted at every turn by the great elder.
Ning Wei's tone left no room for doubt, leaving no room for Ning Yan to negotiate.
Then, he looked at Su Chen again, his tone full of cold murderous intent.
"Boy, it's your turn now."
"I'm a direct descendant of the Ning family. If you can't give me an explanation today, you can enter through the gate of my Ning family, but you can't get out."
Ning Wei looked at Su Chen, his eyes were full of coldness. If it weren't for his extraordinary bearing and some background, he would have killed Su Chen long ago.
