Chapter 347

Heng Xian stood on the steps, scanning the dense and sharp Heng family members, and felt more comfortable in his heart. He smiled slightly: "Grandfather, Uncle, I'm back!"

"Good to be back, good!"

The City Lord, who had always had great prestige, wiped the corners of his eyes and instantly turned into a kind old man.

"Let's go, let's go home!"

Heng Wei came over with one arm to support Heng Xian.

The grandfather and grandsons walked down the steps and got into the City Lord's luxurious carriage together.

An old man with gray hair beside the carriage was the old steward, Kong San Ye, back then, full of joy and humble: "Greetings, Young Master Xian. Hahaha, Young Master Xian went to a brothel as soon as he returned. My respect for the young master is like the surging river, continuous and endless, truly... gratifying and congratulatory!"

Heng Xian scolded with a smile: "Gratifying my ass, do you need to teach me how to do things?"

"Small one understands, small one understands!"

Kong San Ye rolled his eyes, fell to the back, and then quietly waved his hand, taking a batch of "Fresh Clothes Guards" into the "Juxian Elegant Pavilion."

On this side, the Heng family grandfather and grandsons returned to the City Lord's Mansion surrounded by a large number of "Fresh Clothes Guards."

Along the way, loose cultivators and ordinary people were dark and crowded, watching carefully.

Heng Xian glanced around and asked: "Where is my father?"

Heng Wei and his father looked at each other and coughed: "Your father's business in Nan'an City is a bit big, he can't get away for the time being. I'll send someone to notify him to come back immediately!"

Heng Xian leaned back on the soft chair and said: "No need, I'll rest, and go see him later."

"That's fine!" Heng Wei said.

Heng Xiu pinched his beard at this time and said: "Xian'er, the family has developed well in these years. After the nine families attacked the Heng family back then, we still had more than 5,000 people left. These 5,000 people are all clever, agile, and have good aptitude!

After you left, I discussed with your father, your uncle, and other uncles to separate 1,000 old, weak, women, and children to manage the mansion and miscellaneous affairs,

1,000 half-grown boys established the Wangfeng Hall, mainly to collect information.

1,000 flexible-minded ones, following your father, are in charge of family businesses, medicine fields, mines, and other industries.

The remaining 2,000 are young and strong between 18 and 60 years old. According to your method, we systematically cultivated them, and then recruited 3,000 loose cultivators to establish an elite soldier force led by our Heng family members, named the Fresh Clothes Guard.

These Fresh Clothes Guards are partly used for garrisoning, partly for fighting enemies, and partly for arresting thieves and killing people!"

After speaking, he was somewhat proud.

However, Heng Xian remained silent and made no statement.

Heng Xiu, as a grandfather, had his face stagnate, and he became a bit uneasy.

Heng Wei, who was next to him, had sweat on his forehead: "Xian'er, is it because of your eldest brother that you are uncomfortable? Actually... your eldest brother is very low-key and pragmatic. He cultivates desperately, and his cultivation is improving day by day. He is already at the eighth level of Qi Condensation!"

Heng Xian glanced at him: "Where did Heng Ruze's wife come from?"

Heng Wei said embarrassedly: "A concubine's daughter from the Liu family of the City Lord's family in Shouyang City to the west. However, her father has good cultivation and is highly valued by the Shouyang City Lord. We married into each other's families!

Her brother, he has nothing to do in Shouyang City all day. Xihong begged your eldest brother to find something for her brother to do, and your eldest brother begged me, so I agreed. Anyway, he is a playboy, he can't make any trouble!"

Heng Xian laughed lightly and reached out to beckon.

"Whoosh—"

The Chi Mei Sword that was pressing "Young Master Liu" at the four-way intersection flashed and rose, scaring the onlookers and causing them to flee, then flew straight over and landed in Heng Xian's hand.

The sharp aura carried by the sword made half the street feel a chill.

Heng Xiu, Heng Wei, and a group of Heng family members also swallowed their saliva and pulled away a little distance.

Heng Wei watched Heng Xian hang the sword on his waist, and the carriage clearly sank. He gave a dry laugh: "You are cultivating in a major sect, and your cultivation is higher. For such a small matter, you have to bear with your cousin. After all, he is going to take the lead in the future!"

Heng Xian said indifferently: "He takes his lead, what do I have to bear?"

"Ah..." Heng Wei's face turned into a ball of bitterness.

Old man Heng Xiu saw this and simply changed the subject to talk about other trivial matters.

The onlookers and loose cultivators around looked at the grandfather and grandsons on the carriage in the middle of the road, whispering with awe.

And the group of people in the "Juxian Elegant Pavilion" behind were also pardoned, fleeing one after another, and no one cared about the flower queen.

Heng Ruze and his wife helped each other stand up, covered in cold sweat.

Liu Xihong had just been slapped, but instead of complaining, she became obedient: "Husband, let's, let's go home!"

Heng Ruze glanced at her, took her hand, and walked out, whispering: "Does it hurt? During the days Young Brother is here, you must restrain yourself, don't be arrogant and domineering again!"

Liu Xihong frowned slightly: "You are the eldest brother, why must you be afraid of him?"

"Are you not afraid?" Heng Ruze asked back.

Liu Xihong's cheeks twitched a few times.

Heng Ruze sighed: "This young brother of mine, how should I put it? Since he suddenly opened his mind after that illness, his IQ is like a demon, and his wrist reaches the sky!

Back then, the nine major families joined forces to attack our Heng family, but he blocked them alone and counter-killed tens of thousands of people, almost wiping out the nine major families, which established our Heng family's foundation!

Later, he was snatched by major sects as a true disciple! It is no exaggeration to say that Young Brother is top-notch in the world in terms of vision, wrist, talent, and cultivation. The future of our Heng family depends on him!

I respect and fear him. Even if he beats or scolds me, I admit it. I was beaten by him many times before anyway. Actually, he could step on my head to teach me a lesson, which shows he wasn't angry to a certain extent, and shows he still recognizes me as his eldest brother..."

After speaking, he was actually somewhat proud.

Liu Xihong was dumbfounded, then slapped his hand away angrily: "How can you be so cowardly? Even if he is a peerless big shot in the world, he should know the distinction between superior and inferior. You are the eldest brother, the eldest brother is the eldest brother!

Besides, he doesn't seem to be that powerful. My mother's eldest brother is a true disciple of the Qingshan Sect, at the eighth level of the Qi Sea Realm! Do you believe I will find my eldest brother now!"

Heng Ruze was somewhat angry: "Why are you so unreasonable? Don't compare your family with my young brother, they are not worthy!"

"Don't know who is not worthy!" Liu Xihong gritted her teeth.

"Follow me back!" Heng Ruze grabbed her hand hard.

Inside the Heng family mansion, which had been rebuilt on a large scale and had a bureaucratic atmosphere, it was decorated with lanterns and colorful streamers, full of joy.

Young girls, young wives, and half-grown children were dressed cleanly, with bright smiles on their faces.

For no other reason, Brother Xian is back!

In the living room, Heng Xiu, Heng Wei, Heng Xian, and a group of main family Elders sat around happily.

"The Great Zhou Empire is not bad. They sent several waves of high-cultivation eunuchs to protect us in these years, and they didn't leave until last year. This marriage is worth it..." Heng Xiu was talking about the Great Zhou Empire and sighed, "But the only regret is, I don't know why, those eunuchs told us politely to temporarily not spread the news of the marriage between the two sides, saying it was explained by big shots above, and it was for our own good!"

Heng Wei said: "We suspect they are worried that others will envy us and deal with us."

"Exactly!" A group of Heng family Elders nodded one after another.

Heng Xian smiled. Regarding the marriage with the Great Zhou Empire, he sometimes felt that it was not that simple, so he just waited to see it this time. Suddenly remembering something, he looked at Heng Wei: "By the way, didn't Uncle say that the Heng family hasn't been having a good time recently? The Sun family doesn't seem to be right with the Heng family either? What's going on?"

As soon as the words fell, the entire hall became quiet.
