Chapter 389: Terrified

However, after seeing the current Chen family, Zhou Honglang felt a lot of surprise and suspicion in his heart.

He had been to the Chen family several times a few years ago. Although the appearance of the family had not changed much, the Chen family was sparse and bleak at that time, and there were only a handful of decent warriors in the family.

But now, as he walked along the way, he met many young people who were not very old, but had already entered the Body Tempering Realm or even the Blood Coagulation Realm. Even the family square was very lively, far from what it was before.

It seems that the Chen family has developed very well in recent years.

While his eyes were surprised, Zhou Honglang felt even more miserable in his heart. You must know that members of his Zhou family are still on top of the reward offered by the Gongyang family, especially core members of the Zhou family like them. If they are captured and sent to the Gongyang family, so The rewards won’t be too bad for sure.

Even though the Chen family was developing well, he didn't think any family would give up the rewards given by the Gongyang family.

Perhaps, he made a wrong choice when he brought his people to this mass burial mountain.

But now, Zhou Honglang can only hope that the patriarch of the Chen family can take the past situation into account and let them live.

After a while, several people arrived outside the family hall.

Seeing that this place was still the same as before, Zhou Honglang had a look of reminiscence on his face, and under the leadership of Chen Tianyu, he immediately walked towards the family hall.

However, Chen Tianmo’s words soon came from behind:

"Please wait outside for a moment."

Several other members of the Zhou family were stopped and became a little agitated. Seeing this, Zhou Honglang gave a look and said at the same time:

"The clan brothers will just wait outside."

Seeing Zhou Honglang saying this, the few people stopped talking. However, things have reached this point. Even if a few people go in together, it seems to be of little use.

Zhou Honglang quickly walked into the family hall. After looking at the only figure in the hall, Zhou Honglang slightly bent down and clasped his fists and said:

"Zhou Honglang has met Patriarch Chen."

During the family's glory days, he had never been so humble when facing other small families.

But now people under the eaves have to bow their heads.

"You're welcome, Mr. Zhou. Please sit down."

The voice next to his ears made Zhou Honglang couldn't help but quickly raise his head. After seeing that the person in front of him was not Chen Xingzhen, he paused in his heart.

He originally thought that he might be able to find a favor and free the clan members by relying on their initial acquaintance, but things have changed and people have changed. Now the patriarch of the Chen family has actually changed.

Even those few encounters had never happened. At this moment, Zhou Honglang's thoughts had changed a little. He no longer asked for a chance of survival, but only wanted to keep the whole bodies of himself and his clan brothers.

Seeing the uncertainty on Zhou Honglang's face, Chen Tianjing smiled and said:

"Master Zhou, you might as well have a sip of tea first. Fourth uncle will be here soon."

Hearing this, a glimmer of hope rose in Zhou Honglang's heart, but even the best tea had no taste in Zhou Honglang's mouth at this moment.

Outside the lobby, several other members of the Zhou family were also anxious. They didn't know what was going on inside. Seeing that there was no movement in the lobby, they all wanted to rush in to see the situation, but there were several warriors staring at them. , they dare not act rashly.

"Mr. Zhou, long time no see."

Chen Xingzhen's greetings soon came from the lobby.

Zhou Honglang's face was slightly excited when he saw a familiar person, but his reason quickly brought him back to reality. Even if they met the former patriarch of the Chen family, there seemed to be little hope for them.

But he had to fight for everything he said. After a few simple greetings, Zhou Honglang stood up and said with determination:

"Clan Chief Chen, the Zhou family has long since ceased to exist. Nowadays, I and several of my clan brothers outside are living in the open air. This time I came to the nobles, but I actually want to borrow the nobles' place to rest for a few days."

As if he felt something was wrong, Zhou Honglang hurriedly said:

"If that doesn't work, I'll take a few of my clan brothers and leave immediately. I hope Clan Chief Chen will give me permission."

At this moment, what Zhou Honglang hoped was that Cheng Xingzhen would ignore a few people and let them leave. Maybe there would still be a chance.

But then Chen Xingzhen’s faint laughter came from the lobby:

"You don't have to leave if you leave."

"At the beginning, Clan Chief Zhou also had some kindness to my Chen family. Mr. Zhou and several other clan members might as well stay with our clan for a while. It would not be too late to leave when they have other places to go."

When Zhou Honglang heard the previous sentence, his heart felt cold.

However, the following words did not make Zhou Honglang happy, because many small families had used such names to try to stabilize them, and then secretly reported to the Gongyang family.

However, after thinking about it carefully, Zhou Honglang felt that the Chen family did not need to do anything extra. With the strength of the Chen family, they could just imprison a few people directly.

Looking at it this way, it seems that the friendship from back then really had an effect.

Zhou Honglang didn't think much and hurriedly thanked him.

"Okay, Mr. Zhou is tired from the journey. I have asked the tribesmen to clean up the guest rooms and prepare food. Mr. Zhou might as well take a few tribesmen to rest for two days. It is not too late to discuss other matters later."

Zhou Honglang nodded and then left the hall under the leadership of his tribe.

Outside the lobby, several tribesmen saw a trace of joy on their faces when they saw Zhou Honglang come out safely, but they still did not relax their vigilance. Maybe the next moment, these people around them would capture them or even kill them.

After all, the Gongyang family didn't say they wanted to capture anyone alive.

But until they arrived at the family guest room, this expected situation still did not happen. Even after arranging accommodation for them, the Chen family members around them also retreated, and there was no intention to monitor them.

"Brother, what's going on? What did you discuss?"

Looking at the scene in front of them, they all asked with some doubt.

Zhou Honglang also informed everyone of the news in the lobby.

However, after listening, they still did not completely let down their guard:

"Brother, this matter should not be taken lightly. Perhaps the Chen family wants to paralyze us and then extract the family's fighting skills and skills from us."

"And the Chen family does not seem to intend to let us leave. These must be guarded against."

"I think so too."

The words of several clansmen made Zhou Honglang fall into silence. It is not impossible. After all, although the family has been destroyed, the memories in the minds of several people also hide the gains of the family over the years. Even the family's practice skills are rare in a small family.

Moreover, before they left the family, they recorded a lot of combat skills of high grade, among which there was a low-grade combat skill of earth grade, which was the family's treasure, and even few people in the family knew about it.

They only knew about this combat skill on the eve of the family's demise.
