Chapter 172 Territory and Team Fighting Skills (1)
The eldest elder of the Zhen family has never mentioned the matter of Zhen Jian. Just when everyone was puzzled, the eldest elder of the Zhen family changed the topic: "Originally, anyone who has made outstanding contributions to the Zhen family will definitely be given the most generous rewards by the Zhen family." rewards. 'When he said this, his tone paused slightly, and he looked at Xiao Yan and said regretfully, 'But it's a pity, Zhen Jian has cost you a lot of credit. "
After hearing this, Zhen Ni raised her eyebrows, thinking that the Zhen family would not give up the opportunity to save face easily. It seems that the Great Elder wants to put some pressure on Xiao Yan regarding the Zhen Jian incident, and then magnanimously not pursue the matter and only focus on his merits. This will not only save the Zhen family's loss in the Zhen Jian incident, but also make the Xiao Yan is grateful to the Zhen family. But, Great Elder, you still underestimated Xiao Yan. Zhen Ni sighed quietly in her heart and chose to remain silent.
Qing Haoran and Le Shaolong also understood, and picked up their teacups with a faint smile.
But Xiao Yao was extremely anxious in his heart, thinking that the Zhen family was still resentful about Zhen Jian. However, his position in the Zhen family was inconvenient and he did not dare to argue in front of the eldest elder of the Zhen family, so he could only worry on the sidelines. .
"If I ask the people who went with me in detail about Zhen Jian's incident, I will know that it is not my fault." ‘Xiao Yan suppressed the displeasure in his heart and responded in a neither humble nor overbearing manner.
'It is difficult to determine the right and wrong of this matter, but it is an indisputable fact that Zhen Jian was deposed and brought shame to the Zhen family. "
Xiao Yan had expected this response a long time ago. The eldest elder of the Zhen family exposed Zhen Jian's aggressiveness with a single word, and he had the potential to draw a final conclusion on this matter.
Qing Haoran put down the tea cup and said with the dignity of a superior before Xiao Yan could speak: 'Just ask what happened and who is right. It is not difficult to judge who is right and who is wrong. "
Seeing that the Demon Emperor was supporting Xiao Yan, the eldest elder of the Zhen family changed his mind. After pondering for a moment, he argued loudly: 'Xiao Yan and Zhen Jian stand at different angles, so naturally they have different opinions. I also admit that Zhen Jian is a bit arrogant, but it is indeed too much to hurt him so severely just because of this. "
The great elder of the Zhen family downplayed the rights and wrongs of this matter because of different perspectives, but Zhen Jian was just a little arrogant. I want to use this to determine that Xiao Yan is indeed guilty in this matter.
It's a pity that his current opponent is the Demon Emperor Qing Haoran who he cannot suppress based on his identity. How can he be allowed to avoid the important point and make nonsense?
If it was before Xiao Yan and Qing Muer got engaged. After understanding the Zhen family's attitude towards Xiao Yan, and taking into account the relationship between the Blood Demon clan and the Zhen family, Qing Haoran might not engage in a verbal dispute with the Zhen family's elder on this matter, and let the Zhen family's elder What about taking advantage of your mouth? But not now. Xiao Yan is now his brother-in-law. It can be said that Xiao Yan's honor and disgrace are the honor and disgrace of his sister Qing Haoran. How can he endure the unreasonable remarks made against his brother-in-law?
Qing Haoran smiled casually and said: "Based on my understanding of brother Xiao Yan, it is not just a slight friction that can make him take action. I am afraid that the reason for this must be investigated by the Great Elder." "
Qing Haoran's words made the eldest elder of the Zhen family choke. He never expected that Qing Haoran would speak for Xiao Yan again and again to embarrass him in this matter. When he thought about it, he had already expressed the Zhen family's intention to appease and win over Xiao Yan, with the wisdom of Demon Emperor Qing Haoran. You must understand that he just wants to save some face for the Zhen family, and he doesn't really want to say how much fault Xiao Yan had in Zhen Jian's matter. Even if Qing Haoran and Xiao Yan are close brothers, they will probably take into account the relationship between the Blood Demon clan and the Zhen family and not go into detail on this issue. Therefore, they use vague words to put pressure on Xiao Yan. Who would have thought that Qing Haoran would On Xiao Yan's behalf, he was serious about this matter, which was just a matter of face.
Seeing that the eldest elder of the Zhen family was a little embarrassed, Qing Haoran also accepted it and said with a smile: "Actually, the eldest elder can't be blamed for this. After all, the people who went with Zhen Jian were all Zhen Jian's guards. The so-called protector is eager, so It is still difficult to fully understand the truth of the matter. But I would like to ask the great elder. "
The face of the eldest elder of the Zhen family was slightly gloomy, "Demon Emperor, please tell me?" "
‘Is Zhen Jian returning to his clan safely? Since Zhen Jian returned home safely, it means that Xiao Yan's damage to him was not enough to put his life in danger in the killing blood cave. Seeing the eldest elder of the Zhen family nodding, Qing Haoran continued, "In addition, I would like to ask, has Zhen Jian's injury recovered after returning to the clan?" Are there any irreparable hidden injuries left on your body? "
‘There is no need for the Demon King to worry about this. 'Although the eldest elder of the Zhen family didn't understand why Qing Haoran asked, he still shook his head and answered truthfully, 'It's just a mere injury, it has been cured long ago. "
'That's fine. "The smile on Qing Haoran's lips grew thicker. He seemed to be happy about this, but his words suddenly changed. His tone was extremely soft, as if he had a pearl of wisdom in his hand. "What I don't understand is that since Zhen Jian returned to Zhen's house safely, his injuries have healed. After recovery, the strength should be intact, so what happened to my brother? "
As soon as Qing Haoran said these words, everyone suddenly understood and praised the Demon Emperor's cleverness in their hearts. Qing Mu'er and Xiao Qi even broke into undisguised smiles. Only Zhen Ni and Xiao Yao couldn't help but smile. I secretly admired him from the bottom of my heart - "I didn't expect that the Demon Emperor's eloquence was so good." "
Qing Haoran's words were reasonable and matter-of-fact, with no intention of targeting the Zhen family. The eldest elder of the Zhen family was extremely depressed. After pondering for a moment, he gritted his teeth and said: "Although the injury is not serious, the heart of the Zhen sword has been broken. No matter how serious the injury is, The Zhen family has since lost a peerless genius with great potential, a huge loss. So I boldly asked the Demon Emperor if Xiao Yan had any unshirkable responsibility? "
‘It’s just that the Zhen family found it difficult to accept it for a while. 'Qing Haoran's smile gradually faded, he shrugged, looked at the eldest elder of the Zhen family and said seriously, 'First of all, Zhen Jian did not suffer any physical injuries. What does it mean? This shows that Xiao Yan did not kill him. In other words, he was merciful. He could do this in the blood cave of endless killing. Xiao Yan already cared about the Zhen family's affection. As for the destruction of the sword's heart after Zhen Jian's defeat, it only shows that his mind is unstable. Which peerless genius has not survived countless bloody killings? If you are so decadent after one defeat, what about the second and third defeats? So what? "
Qing Haoran's words became more and more sharp: 'Let me ask, how far can a person who can't afford to lose go on the road of growth in the future, no matter how extraordinary his talent is? Can such a person really be called a peerless genius? In this case, how can the Zhen family suffer losses? "(To be continued...)
