Dongling City said it was big or small.

The news that Zhuo Yunxian gave up measuring his soul soon spread. Many people regarded this as a pastime after dinner, talked freely and pointed at him.

...

When he returned home, Zhuo Yunxian went directly to his father's study. His sister Zhuo Yuwan was also here, so he told in detail what happened in the city lord's mansion today.

When Zhuo Yuwan learned that his younger brother was almost injured by Xi Feiyan, he was furious and wanted to argue with Xi Feiyan, but in the end he was stopped by Zhuo Fuhai.

The Xi family in Daning is better than the Zhuo family, and there is an enlightened ancestor in the clan. Even if you come to the door to argue, you will not get the desired result... What's more, Xi Feiyan is the one who suffered this loss this time, so they don't have to say much.

When Zhuo Yuwan thought of Xi Feiyan's appearance being blown into a chicken coop by Zhuo Yunxian, Zhuo Yuwan's anger also disappeared a lot.

"Dad, what exactly does Chen Wanlou want to do? Does he want to use the Xi family to suppress our Zhuo family?!"

Zhuo Yuwan's expression was cold, and a look of fear flashed in his eyes.

Due to the constraints of the law of immortality, the government forces shall not intervene in the disputes between aristocratic families, and the immortality family shall not forcibly invade other people's industries. Otherwise, the weak people will have no hope of development and lose the foundation for stability. The entire Xianqiu Continent will be in chaos, which will be detrimental to the overall situation of the human race.

Zhuo Fuhai pondered for a moment, waved his hand and said, "No need to think too much. The soldiers come and the generals come and the water comes and the soil covers the earth. Our Dongling Zhuo family is not afraid of challenges. Everything depends on strength to speak."

Zhuo Yuwan nodded slightly and said again: "Dad, there have been many masters in our alchemy and weapon refining workshops recently. We must consider other channels..."

"You can handle these things just by looking at them. Don't leave what you want to leave, and you can take care of what you leave."

"There are also three worshippers who have resigned one after another. I'm afraid the next time the goods are out of staff, so how should we arrange it?"

"Let's try recruiting people first. If it really doesn't work, I'll just go there a few times myself."

"That's all."

...

After some discussion, Zhuo Yuwan left first, and only Zhuo Fuhai and Zhuo Yunxian were left in the study.

From beginning to end, Zhuo Yunxian never interjected a word, but just stood by silently, but he had a rough settlement of the current situation of the Zhuo family.

Zhuo Fuhai picked up the teacup and sniffed, calmly said: "Yunxian, I have heard it for so long just now, let's talk about your thoughts now?"

Since Zhuo Yunxian condensed the top-quality seal, Zhuo Fuhai has trained him as the next generation of Zhuo family. Although he did not let him take charge of any affairs, he often brought him by his side and taught him how to deal with people and manage things.

Zhuo Yunxian did not disappoint his father. He did not directly ask questions and answers when encountering problems. He always reads more, listens more, and thinks more, and always puts forward some unique insights, which made Zhuo Fuhai very satisfied.

...

After pondering for a moment, Zhuo Yunxian frowned and said, "Dad, Dongling City is the lifeblood of southwest commerce. Our family has dominated over the years and is inevitably envied by people... The city lord indulged in Xi Feiyan, maybe he wanted to use the hand of the Xi family to hit us, and..."

Speaking of this, Zhuo Yunxian couldn't help but stop.

Zhuo Fuhai's eyes paused slightly and waved his hand, "You continue to say that we are the two fathers and sons here, so don't have any scruples."

Zhuo Yunxian nodded and continued, "If I was not mistaken, it shouldn't be just the city lord who has ideas, but other forces may also want to get involved. In the past, my father was healthy and had a bright future, so he could naturally suppress everything, but now... those ghosts and monsters have begun to be unable to hold back and are gradually emerging."

"So what!" Zhuo Fuhai said undeniably: "As long as I am still here, the merchant lineage of Dongling City will be decided by my Zhuo family."

Zhuo Yunxian suddenly spoke, "What if Prince Zuo spoke?"

"You...what did you say!?"

Zhuo Fuhai couldn't help but be stunned, and a few drops of tea in his hand scattered.

Zhuo Yunxian said bluntly: "Dongling Border City is located in the important road of Shangzhi. If it weren't for someone's support, it would be difficult for his father to settle down. Prince Zuo is the leader of the clan and is in charge of the southwest. He would not have no idea about the place in Dongling unless... he had already made arrangements."

Over the past few days, Zhuo Yunxian has been with Zhuo Fuhai and has gained a certain understanding of the situation in the Tang Dynasty. Although he is devoted to seeking immortality and does not like these worldly entanglements, he has to consider more when it comes to the safety of his father and sister.

Fortunately, Zhuo Yunxian never had to sleep. Besides practicing, he still has a lot of time to study... The world is full of knowledge.

Seeing that his father was silent, Zhuo Yunxian whispered: "Dad, it is a taboo to not contact the outside world. Now my father's immortal path is rugged. In the eyes of Prince Zuo, I'm afraid... I just want to know how important the Zhuo family is in Prince Zuo's eyes? If there is a problem, will it be regarded as an abandoned son?"

"Enough!"

Zhuo Fuhai put down the teacup and his expression was a little heavy.

As Zhuo Yunxian said, the Zhuo family can have today, in addition to Zhuo Fuhai's own strength, naturally, the protection of noble people is indispensable, but he has never mentioned this matter to anyone, including his daughter Zhuo Yuwan.

However, Zhuo Yunxian was able to think of Prince Zuo, a powerful figure, with his words and words, with his father a little surprised and even shocked.

After a while, Zhuo Fuhai took a deep breath, calmed down his emotions and said, "Yunxian, I still remember that I told you that the road to cultivating immortals is far more dangerous and darker than you imagined. If you are not careful, you will be crushed to pieces..."

Zhuo Yunxian nodded slightly, silent.

Zhuo Fuhai sighed quite emotionally: "The world is like a tide and a person is like water. In it, we often go with the flow and cannot help ourselves. I know that you are committed to cultivating immortals, so naturally I don't want you to get involved in these messy things."

The world is also a sea of ​​suffering, and cultivating the mind is cultivating immortality.

This is what Zhuo Yunxian saw in a book "Letter to Cultivate Immortals". At this moment, he had a deeper understanding of this sentence.

...

After a long time, Zhuo Fuhai smiled bitterly and said, "Let's continue, what else do you think of?"

"Hopefully, I was wrong."

Zhuo Yunxian's eyes were cold and he had a murderous thought for the first time: "If someone intends to deal with Prince Zuo, he must first kill his minions and cut off his retreat. Prince Zuo may abandon some chess pieces in order to protect himself, and we may abandon his son. I always feel that my father's experience is not as simple as robbery. Maybe someone is planning everything behind his back... using Yin-Yang fruit as bait to attract his father to go... And for me, he will try his best, so they set up an ambush halfway, and even if they can't intercept you, they will still cut off your immortal path."

"Perhaps, there are more than one person behind this."

Zhuo Yunxian looked at his father's broken arms and clenched his fists tightly.

No matter who is calculating his father, he will have to pay the price! Therefore, he needs strength, and only with stronger strength can he shelter his father and sister from the wind and rain.
