I can bless thousands of magical powers.

Chapter 25 Taking advantage of the situation
Zhang Yuan turned around and saw a boy about fourteen or fifteen years old standing not far away.

He recognized at a glance that the other person was the eldest son of the Chen family!

Zhang Yuan had a very deep impression of this guy. He had an arrogant face and looked down on others, acting like a superior person.

Beside this young master were the martial artist Zhang Xiong and two servants.

It’s so haunting!

In the entire Chenjia Village, the person Zhang Yuan was most wary of was undoubtedly this martial artist.

Zhang Xiong smiled, with a hint of teasing on his face.

Seeing that Zhang Yuan did not respond respectfully, Master Chen's expression suddenly became gloomy: "I was asking you a question, why are you silent?"

Zhang Yuan glanced at the other person coldly, then turned and left without saying a word.

Now that the Chen family is powerful and the other party is accompanied by martial artists, a direct conflict is not a wise choice.

It was impossible for Zhang Yuan to bow down to the other party.

So the best thing to do is to run away.

"Be bold!"

Being ignored again, Master Chen flew into a rage and immediately ordered, "Come here, quickly take him..."

I don’t know why, but when Young Master Chen saw Zhang Yuan for the first time, he felt that the latter was very uncomfortable.

It feels like a thorn in the eye.

It must be removed!

Therefore, Young Master Chen had repeatedly tried to recruit Zhang Yuan as his servant through his advisor and Hunter Gao.

By then, he will have thousands of ways to slowly kill Zhang Yuan.

Unexpectedly, Zhang Yuan didn't fall into the trap at all.

Since the soft approach doesn’t work, let’s just use the hard approach!

Young Master Chen didn't believe that a little peasant could escape from his clutches!
"Wait!"

Zhang Xiong on the side suddenly stopped him and said, "Master Mingjie, this kind of character is not worth your fuss. I will take him down after a while and then give him to you to deal with as you please."

Young Master Chen Mingjie was stunned for a moment: "Master Zhang, he is just a country bumpkin, why do you need to personally take action!"

"Master Mingjie, you underestimate this man."

Zhang Xiong said sinisterly: "Although he is young, he is already a martial artist at the advanced level!"

"what?"

Chen Mingjie couldn't believe his ears: "You are not kidding, are you?"

"Zhang never jokes!"

Zhang Xiong replied proudly: "I can't be wrong."

He carefully observed Zhang Yuan twice before he was sure that the latter had cultivated his strength and entered the level of Ming Jin.

"Damn it!"

Chen Mingjie was shocked, jealous and angry. The fire in his heart was burning so fiercely that it almost burned his rationality to ashes!

He started practicing martial arts at the age of seven, and has been practicing for nearly eight years.

I can never break through the barriers and become a real warrior!
It’s not that Chen Mingjie didn’t work hard enough or that his family didn’t support him. In fact, the Chen family invested a lot of resources in him and hired several martial arts instructors.

The root cause is that Chen Mingjie has poor talent and weak physique.

If Chen Mingjie continues to persevere, he will be able to get into the game one day.

But his future in martial arts ends here!

Chen Mingjie knew this very well.

It was precisely because of this that he was extremely jealous of Zhang Yuan, who was about the same age as him and had already become an entry-level warrior.

Why?
Just a country bumpkin.

Actually better than him!
Zhang Xiong, who was standing by, saw Chen Mingjie's expression completely and sneered in his heart.

This young master has lofty ambitions but a fragile life. He is extremely narrow-minded and cannot bear to see others do well in the slightest.

But this kind of stuff is the easiest to control! He hypocritically persuaded: "Master Mingjie, don't forget Mr. Chen's instructions. The most urgent thing now is to repair the road into the mountain. Other things can be put aside for the time being."

"So you should just bear with it for now. Zhang Yuan is living in the village anyway, so he definitely can't run away."

Zhang Xiong's persuasion was very effective, and Chen Mingjie actually managed to hold his breath.

Because he also knew the importance of road construction to the Chen family. If he really acted recklessly and affected his father's plan, the consequences would be terrible.

A young master who has been unable to get into the game for many years is really not very important to the Chen family.

What’s more, Chen Mingjie has two younger brothers!

He looked at Zhang Yuan's figure getting farther and farther away and spat on the ground angrily.

Zhang Xiong was also looking at Zhang Yuan.

He narrowed his eyes, and an incomprehensible light flashed in his eyes.

Zhang Xiong is very interested in Zhang Yuan.

He felt that the latter was hiding a secret, and even suspected that Gao Ze's death was related to Zhang Yuan!
It’s just that Zhang Yuan is still useful for the moment, so Zhang Xiong is not in a hurry to take action. After all, the monk can run away but the temple cannot.

Licking his lips, he savored the taste of the barbecued rock sheep.

So fragrant!
However, Zhang Yuan's vigilance towards this martial artist has reached its peak.

He left Chenjia Village and went straight to the county town, and never came back for the next few days.

But Zhang Yuan still stared at the Chen family's actions.

He was very familiar with the environment around Chenjia Village. He did not need to enter the village, but could observe from a nearby vantage point.

Every day, he would go into the mountains to hunt and collect herbs, while also searching for new hosts.

When the time was almost up, Zhang Yuan took a shortcut to secretly monitor the situation and then returned to the county town.

The reason why he works so hard.

On the one hand, it acts as a scout for Yagui, so that if anything happens, it can warn the latter in advance.

On the other hand, Zhang Yuan suspected that the Chen family's road construction was related to the treasure hidden in Qianfeng Mountain.

He is also very interested in treasure hunting.

As time went by, rows of wooden houses and thatched houses were quickly built on the wasteland at the east end of the village.

Soon after, hundreds of outsiders came to Chenjia Village.

They were all young and strong men hired by the Chen family, and they made the originally peaceful mountain village suddenly become noisy and bustling.

There are also a lot more disputes!

The Chen family transferred a large amount of food from outside, and then launched a vigorous mountain-opening and road-building project!
Click!Click!
Big trees were chopped down and dragged away, the grass and vines on the ground were quickly cleared away, and four or five hundred young and strong men, under the supervision of the Chen family guards and servants, vigorously wielded axes, sickles and hoes.

Advancing deeper into the mountains little by little!
Such a scene made Zhang Yuan, who was watching from a distance, secretly frightened.

The Chen family's actions cannot be said to be unprecedented, but it does not seem like the kind of grand event that a collateral family could pull off.

He also noticed that there was a five-foot-tall statue of the god enshrined on an altar near the road construction team.

That is the statue of Linhe City God invited by the Chen family!

To be precise, it is a deputy deity.

It is precisely because of this statue of the City God that the city is in charge.

A group of young and strong laborers, including the villagers of Chenjia Village, were working hard.

And the statue of the City God seems to be really useful.

They repaired their way through, but the terrifying weirdness did not appear.

Zhang Yuan observed for seven consecutive days, and his heart sank as he watched the newly built mountain road continue to extend forward.

The worst happened.

The direction this road leads to is exactly the territory of Yagui!
He had reminded Yagui many times before, but the latter remained indifferent.

After thinking about it, Zhang Yuan decided to persuade him one last time.
