Chapter 383: Offering favors without cause implies a hidden agenda! (Seeking subscriptions

Shizi Shizi Jun Zhan Tian understood immediately; his father wanted to tell him that on the path of cultivation in the future, the opponents he encountered might not always be upright.

Don't underestimate people who aren't strong; the more such people there are, the more ruthless their underhanded tactics will be.

Jun Wuhui turned around, his gaze fixed on his son, and said, "That's right. So, how do you plan to deal with it?"

Shizi Shizi Jun Zhan Tian smiled proudly, "In the face of absolute strength, any conspiracy or trick is futile. Father just needs to wait for the good news."

Jun Wuhui nodded slightly, a trace of satisfaction flashing in his eyes.

This son, at least, hadn't failed his expectations.

This feeling of pretentiousness was exactly the same as his old man's; he was truly his own flesh and blood.

Actually, Shizi Shizi Jun Zhan Tian's comprehension was quite good, and Jun Wuhui was someone who had traveled all over the world, so naturally, he knew that people were different.

His son had been protected by his family and sect in the Eastern Region of the May Tian Ce Dynasty, so no one dared to use underhanded tactics in front of him, and the cultivation sects in the Eastern Region were very ancient and cared about their reputation.

When facing the Sea Clan and other foreign races, Shizi Shizi Jun Zhan Tian naturally had his guard up.

Jun Wuhui was just afraid that his son would face backstabbing from his own kind in the future, which was why he brought him to this place for training.

Don't look at the character of the cultivators here; their underhanded tactics were truly ruthless. Back then, if Jun Wuhui hadn't been strong, he would have almost capsized.

Reading ten thousand books is not as good as traveling ten thousand miles; there were many things Shizi Shizi Jun Zhan Tian needed to experience for himself.

Jun Wuhui even felt that he would have to go there again tomorrow, otherwise, Shizi Shizi Jun Zhan Tian would suffer a loss.

Who told Shizi Shizi Jun Zhan Tian to provoke everyone when he signed up? His opponents might use particularly ruthless tactics.

When Shizi Shizi Jun Zhan Tian first met Qiu Qingxia, she was wearing black; she lived here and was familiar with the cultivation customs here, also fearing being held a grudge against.

Let alone Qiu Qingxia and the others, other Sons of Fortune who had mixed here, such as Xiao Ming, Lin Mo, and Tang Shan, had all experienced these things, and Tang Shan was even the representative of the dregs among them.

But some things were exceptions, for example, when Li Chen was here, he never encountered any low-life sneak attacks.

It was actually easy to understand; with Li Chen's strength and status, who would want to live if they sneak-attacked him?

Before sneak-attacking, they really had to consider whether their family could withstand the "nine-generation wipeout."

The people around Li Chen treated him very well, even kneeling quickly, let alone attacking him.

And at this time, Li Chen was on his way to the Hong Sect Villa, but he wasn't there to sign up; instead, he was following Luo Xi's request to save this pair of miserable mother and daughter.

Along the way, Luo Zixi and Luo Qimeng were discussing what to do.

With Li Chen's strength and status, as long as he revealed them and directly demanded the person and the antidote, Qin Hong probably wouldn't dare to refuse, nor would he have the qualifications to refuse.

But the two sisters felt that Li Chen was an emperor, and if the matter spread, it would affect his reputation, saying the emperor bullied men and women.

So they felt it was better not to reveal their identities for the time being, and in view of the fact that Qin Hong had indeed taken care of Luo Xi and her mother for so many years, they would give him a chance, explain things clearly, and were willing to give Qin Hong some cultivation resources as compensation, then take the people away.

If Qin Hong was sensible, they would let him go; if Qin Hong remained obsessed, then Li Chen would teach him a lesson, and if it spread, it would only be said that Qin Hong brought it upon himself, which wouldn't have much impact on Li Chen.

Li Chen was just here to do a system task and wasn't interested in such things, so he followed their lead.

After all, as his women, they were also considering his reputation.

Luo Xi, who was beside them, had always been suspicious; Li Chen looked only a little older than her, was he really that strong?

But her aunt and second aunt shouldn't be lying to her; she was just a useless person who couldn't cultivate, nothing worth lying about.

Thinking of this, Luo Xi led the three of them to the Hong Sect Villa.

The Hong Sect Villa was nestled among the mountains, its towering city walls built of thousand-year-old black iron stone, gleaming with a cold metallic luster in the sunlight.

In front of the villa gate stood two ten-zhang-tall bronze giant statues, holding long halberds, their eyes inlaid with night-luminescent pearls, which could illuminate the surrounding area even in the dark of night.

Luo Xi led the three to the villa gate, feeling a little nervous inside.

Although she was the stepdaughter of the Villa Master in name, Villa Master Qin Hong didn't like her, and everyone felt she was a disaster star, so her status wasn't even as good as a manager's.

Sure enough, when the guards saw her, not only did they not salute, but they blocked the road with their halberds: "The Villa Master has ordered that idlers are not allowed to enter!"

"These are my aunt and second aunt..." Luo Xi explained in a low voice.

"Then you wait!" The guard interrupted impatiently and turned to go inside to report.

Luo Qimeng patted her niece's shoulder soothingly: "It's okay, we'll just wait."

Not long after, a rush of footsteps came from inside the villa.

Qin Hong walked out angrily: "You girl, you dare to bring outsiders back..."

Before he could finish, his gaze fell on the Luo Qimeng sisters, and he froze on the spot.

"Qimeng? Zixi?" The anger on Qin Hong's face instantly turned into surprise.

He took two steps in one, stepped forward, and said enthusiastically: "It's been many years, and the two fairies' elegance is even better than before!"

As a pursuer of Luo Xi's mother, he must have gone to the Luoshui Villa many times; when they were young, everyone mixed in the same place, so they must have seen each other.

He completely ignored Luo Xi, who was standing to the side, and took the initiative to greet them: "Please come in! I will order someone to prepare a banquet!"

Luo Qimeng glanced at him coldly: "Villa Master Qin just had quite a lot of prestige."

Only then did Qin Hong notice the pitiful Luo Xi and coughed twice awkwardly: "It's a special time now, there are many rules in the villa, and the servants are ignorant."

As he spoke, he glared fiercely at the guard and said angrily: "Why don't you apologize to Miss Luo yet!"

This was a typical case of shifting the blame to the servants.

The guard knelt down in a panic to beg for mercy, and only then did Luo Qimeng's expression improve slightly.

Qin Hong also saw Li Chen at this moment, but because Li Chen was very young, he didn't pay much attention, thinking he was a young man who wanted to participate in this Hong Sect grand competition.

After all, among the young people of this generation, who didn't want to stand out in the Hong Sect grand competition and obtain the qualifications to enter the forbidden area?

If these two former goddesses, Luo Zixi and Luo Qimeng, begged him for a favor, as the Villa Master of Hong Sect Villa, he could consider giving Li Chen some help.

But for the rest, it would depend on Li Chen's own ability.

Thinking of this, Qin Hong still felt quite pleased.

Sure enough, recently was his big day; not only was it a double happiness, but there were even more surprises delivered to his door.

After Luo Qimeng entered the gate, she asked where Luo Xi's mother was; her purpose was very clear, after all, she wasn't interested in Qin Hong.

But Qin Hong used the excuse of Luo Xi's mother's weak health, intending to let Luo Qimeng and the others have dinner, and he would personally go and call Luo Xi's mother over.

Whatever the matter was, they could talk about it at dinner.

It was indeed late now, and in view of Qin Hong's enthusiasm, Luo Qimeng didn't refuse.

But Luo Xi always felt that this Qin Hong was offering favors without cause, implying a hidden agenda.

Because she had seen this scene before!
