Chapter 1816: A Clear Conscience
?Who among the large and small forces and many strong casual cultivators in the nearby area does not know Wei Luan's name? Not to mention a small family like the Zhang family, even one as powerful as the Phantom Holy Palace would not dare to offend Wei Luan easily.
His identity as a fourth-grade alchemist made many surrounding forces fear him.
Without saying a word, Wei Luan walked into the palace.
"Let's go." Xiao Chen said indifferently as he turned around slowly, his eyes filled with indifference.
Zhang Huang didn't dare to say anything at the moment, he just nodded and turned around.
Xiao Chen has the support of a fourth-grade alchemist. Zhang Huang's cold, arrogant and angry face before was now replaced by fear. No matter what Xiao Chen's identity is, the fourth-grade alchemist Zhang Huang cannot afford to offend him, nor can the Zhang family offend him.
After Xiao Chen and Zhang Huang came down the mountain, the square that had become calm due to Wei Luan's appearance exploded again, and the noise resounded throughout the square.
Fang Qianxing and the three elders looked at each other, and they all saw shock and confusion in each other's eyes. In the end, the four of them could only smile helplessly.
"With the alchemy elder coming forward, the Zhang family does not dare to do anything to Junior Brother Xiao Chen. Now they are relieved." Zhao Yuxi secretly said after taking a long breath of relief to calm down the shock in his heart.
Miao Cuiling was obviously relieved, and a look that looked like a smile but not a smile appeared on her pretty face.
"What on earth is going on? Why would the alchemy elder help Xiao Chen?"
"Damn it! The alchemy elder actually helped Xiao Chen!"
"Junior Brother Xiao Chen is saved this time!"
Among the many disciples in the commotion, some were angry, some were shocked, and some were happy, but they were all speculating on various reasons.
Wei Luan rarely appeared on weekdays, and spent most of his time refining alchemy. He basically didn't ask about the affairs of Qinglan Holy Palace. Unless something big happened, he would never care.
Because of this, the disciples wondered why Wei Luan helped Xiao Chen, and were shocked and couldn't believe it, not to mention that Xiao Chen was still a new disciple.
The alchemy elder has never interfered in the affairs of any disciples of Qinglan Holy Palace, but now he is helping a new disciple. Is this unreasonable?
After a few simple words of explanation, Fang Qianxing asked the disciples to disperse.
Some smart disciples have begun to plan to curry favor with Xiao Chen. Wei Luan appears to help Xiao Chen, which shows that Wei Luan values Xiao Chen and has a good relationship with Xiao Chen, which is beneficial to them.
And some disciples who followed Jiang Ming to make things difficult for Xiao Chen,
At this moment, he began to give up the idea of going against Xiao Chen.
Not long after Xiao Chen and Zhang Huang came down the mountain, Jiang Ming also found an opportunity to secretly go down the mountain.
In the main hall, Fang Qianxing and the three elders were also guessing at each other's reasons for Wei Luan helping Xiao Chen, but they could not guess the results.
"There must be a reason why the alchemy elder helped Xiao Chen, but why exactly?" Fang Qianxing said in confusion, frowning slightly from the main seat, his face full of doubts.
Anger appeared on the old face, and Meng Fei said in a deep voice: "Elder Alchemy has never met Xiao Chen, and he doesn't know him at all. He actually helped Xiao Chen stand up. It's really unreasonable!"
Finger tapped lightly on the chair, his face solemn, Fang Qianxing said secretly: "For Wei Luan to pay so much attention to a new disciple, has he discovered something?"
On the way to the Zhang family in Taiyong City, Zhang Huang did not dare to say a word and just took Xiao Chen to the Zhang family.
For this reason, Xiao Chen was happy to be quiet and arrived at Zhang's house quietly.
However, when walking on the streets of Taiyong City, Xiao Chen, who has strong perception, noticed some hidden glances.
Among the Zhang family, Zhang Qingyun and several elders were waiting in the hall, as well as some descendants of the Zhang family. At this moment, their faces were full of anger and gloom.
However, when they saw Zhang Huang's slightly frightened expression, they all paused slightly and were slightly confused. When they saw Xiao Chen behind Zhang Huang, their faces became gloomy again.
Everyone's eyes in the hall were focused on Xiao Chen, and the younger generation's descendants started talking in low voices, but their words were all filled with disdain and anger.
Xiao Chen had met Zhang Qingyun and the three elders at the auction held by the Chamber of Commerce, and his eyes only glanced at them lightly.
There were many people in the hall, but Zhang Qian was nowhere to be seen.
Seeing Zhang Qingyun and several elders looking so gloomy that they wanted to go crazy, Zhang Huang was immediately frightened and hurriedly sent a message: "Master of the house, the three elders, Xiao Chen has the support of Alchemist Wei behind him. Palace, Alchemist Wei said that Xiao Chen should go back alive."
Zhang Qingyun and the three elders, who had gloomy faces and were about to get angry, heard Zhang Huang's voice transmission. Their expressions suddenly changed at the same time, their pupils dilated, and they all looked at Zhang Huang at the same time.
The words "Alchemy Master Wei" seemed to have a frightening power, which shocked their hearts. When other descendants saw the shocked expressions of Zhang Qingyun and others, they all shut up and became confused, and the atmosphere became a bit strange.
"The head of the family, the three elders, and Alchemist Wei also said not to make the matter a big deal. Xiao Chen was wrong about this in the first place. Alchemist Wei also means that we can just teach us a lesson casually. If we make the matter a big deal, I'm afraid it will lead to I have offended Master Wei." Looking helplessly at Zhang Qingyun's shocked face, Zhang Huang said with a helpless smile in his heart.
The expressions of Zhang Qingyun and others changed drastically again. Wei Luan's words had made it very clear. If they dared to harm Xiao Chen, it would mean offending Wei Luan and offending a fourth-grade alchemist. The Zhang family could not bear the abuse of a fourth-grade alchemist. anger.
Zhang Huang's words immediately made most of the anger in their hearts disappear, and their gloomy faces softened a lot. They had wanted to curse first before, but now they didn't dare to speak randomly.
Not to mention Xiao Chen being scornful of Zhang Qian, even if Zhang Qian is dealt with, the Zhang family may have to admit that it is unlucky to offend a fourth-grade alchemist. The little Zhang family may disappear in Taiyong City.
"Didn't Jiang Ming say that Xiao Chen is just a new disciple? Why would Wei Luan stand up for him?" After the shock, Zhang Qingyun frowned slightly and wondered.
While confused, he looked at Xiao Chen again. After a while, Zhang Qingyun asked in a low voice, "Are you Xiao Chen?"
"Exactly." Xiao Chen nodded indifferently.
"You are so courageous. You dare to look down on my daughter. If it weren't for Alchemist Wei's sake, I would kill you right now!" The fierce eyes stared at Xiao Chen, his face full of gloom, Zhang Qingyun Shen Sheng said angrily.
Ever since Zhang Qing came back from Qinglan Holy Palace, his whole person has changed. He is no longer as lively as he thought he was. He doesn't talk and doesn't see anyone. He shuts himself in his room all day long, with a hint of fear on his pretty face.
At first, Zhang Qingyun thought that Zhang Qing had been stimulated by something, but as time went by, he felt that something was wrong. However, no matter how he asked, Zhang Qing said nothing and let everyone in. Finally, Jiang Ming came to Zhang's house to explain. , Zhang Qingyun and others learned that they were being scorned by Xiao Chen.
"The death penalty can be avoided, but the living crime cannot be escaped! Even if there is the support of Alchemy Master Wei, you are the one who made the mistake now. I don't want to kill you, just think of it as giving Master Wei a face, but you can't even think about letting it go like this. You must stay. Use your next hand, otherwise you will never leave the Zhang family!" With a bit of anger on his face, an elder shouted angrily, staring at Xiao Chen fiercely. ,
"Hmph! You are worse than a beast, you actually treat cousin Zhang Qian with contempt." A young junior said disdainfully as his eyes glanced at Xiao Chen, his immature face full of anger.
"Such a beast, Alchemist Wei actually helps him!"
"That's right, if he is like him, just kill him! Keeping him will only harm others."
The descendants of the Zhang family cursed in low voices and looked at Xiao Chen's eyes with increasing disdain.
He glanced at the young juniors with cold eyes. Xiao Chen would not take the words of these little brats seriously. He looked at Zhang Qingyun again, with a faint sneer on his face. Xiao Chen said: "Master Zhang, you guys I insist that I did it, and I won’t deny it, but why don’t you ask your daughter what Jiang Ming’s purpose was in inviting him to Qinglan Holy Palace.”
Hearing this, the faces of everyone in the hall suddenly changed. They frowned slightly and stared into Xiao Chen's eyes. With a hint of murderous intent, Zhang Qingyun asked in a deep voice: "What do you mean? You mean my daughter and Jiang Ming Framing you?"
Shrugging, Xiao Chen said calmly: "I don't want to say more nonsense. I have no evidence to prove my innocence. If Zhang Qian feels that this matter is my fault and it can make her conscience feel better, then so be it. I Xiao Chen has a clear conscience."
There is no evidence to prove innocence, and everything you say is useless. Xiao Chen doesn't want to waste so much saliva.
"How unreasonable! How dare you say that Qian'er framed you!" Seeing Xiao Chen's indifferent attitude, his face sank suddenly, he slapped the table and stood up, the elder shouted angrily.
Everyone in the Zhang family knows Zhang Qian's character, and it is absolutely impossible for her to do such a thing that violates her conscience and morals just to frame others.
How could a woman sell her body to frame someone else? No one in the Zhang family would believe it.
Originally, it was because of Wei Luan that his anger subsided a lot. Now Xiao Chen's words once again made Zhang Qingyun's face extremely gloomy. His skin and flesh were twitching, and his eyes flashed with cold murderous intent. Zhang Qingyun shouted angrily: "It's simply What nonsense! Zhang Huang! Cut off his arm!"
"Master, this" his face suddenly changed, his eyes flashed with fear, and he hesitated to speak, as if he didn't dare to take action.
"As long as Xiao Chen doesn't die, Wei Luan can't do anything to us, so take action!" Zhang Qingyun shouted angrily, with murderous intent.
"Yes! Patriarch!" Zhang Huang responded with a feeling of helplessness and anguish in his heart. His gaze immediately shifted to Xiao Chen, his eyes flashed fiercely, and he decisively struck Xiao Chen's shoulder with a palm.
Now that Zhang Qingyun has spoken, Zhang Huang has no need to show mercy. He just broke his arm, not Xiao Chen's life.
"Hmph! It's not that easy to break my arm!" His face turned cold, his slightly squinted eyes were beating with cold murderous aura, and he stared at Zhang Huang, Xiao Chen said coldly, the cold and frightening chill made many people My heart goes cold.
"This is the Zhang family, we can't allow you to be so arrogant!" The tyrannical momentum broke out, and the elder shouted angrily.
"Stop!" Seeing Zhang Huang's attack approaching, a beautiful figure flew over quickly. Why did he stop?
"Qian'er!" Zhang Qingyun and others were shocked when their expressions changed.
"Let him go! You don't need to interfere with my affairs!" Zhang Qian said coldly with a pretty face that was cold and colorless. That coldness made everyone in the Zhang family feel strange and frightened the descendants of the Zhang family.
