However, the Chen family will become the target of everyone's attacks, and both the Wang family and the Nine Gates will take action against them.

Even if Chen Yan has a lot of manpower, what can he do with just the Chen family?

They can't even tell who's a member of the Wang family.

Even if it's better to kill the innocent than let the guilty go free, we can't kill them all, can we?

Wouldn't that plunge the world into chaos?

If that were possible, the Nine Gates would have killed all of their own Wang family members long ago.

Why would we need Chen Yan to kill us?

After much thought, the two of them still couldn't understand what Chen Yan was planning to do.

However, their inability to understand didn't affect Chen Pi's sound sleep. His body was no longer in pain, and someone else was taking on the main responsibility.

Seeing the Wu family suffer a setback, how could I not feel relieved and sleep soundly?

the next day.

Chen Yan planned to return to Beijing, and after thinking about it, Chen Pi decided to take Chen Xi back to western Yunnan.

With the sacred tree of the Chen family guarding it, as long as he lives, the remaining branches of the Chen family will not be able to cause any trouble.

Chen Yan did not stop him, but said, "I left a group of men with Meng Hu. If there's anything you need, let them go."

Chen Pi said irritably, "I'll be thanking my lucky stars if your men don't lay a hand on me."

Chen Yan gave an awkward smile, but didn't say anything more.

Chen Xi found it amusing; he had to admit, the young master's servants were quite bold.

Chen Yan returned to the Chen family. Lao Jiu and Meng Hu looked at Chen Yan with concern in their eyes as they examined his body.

Chen Yan smiled and said, "Alright, alright, I'm really fine."

Old Nine frowned slightly: "What exactly happened?"

After a pause, Chen Yan said, "I went inside the meteorite and found a very large stone figurine."

Old Nine frowned at Chen Yan: "You did something to that thing?"

"I'm just exhausted. I can't feel time inside. I wouldn't say I can't feel it at all, but it's almost zero."

Old Nine pushed up his glasses and said knowingly, "So you really are overworked."

"Um."

Chen Yan nodded, and Lao Jiu and Meng Hu were relieved. Meng Hu said, "Brother Yan, you scared me. I thought something had really happened to you."

"They're even planning to lead a group to blow up the Queen Mother of the West's palace."

Chen Yan couldn't help but laugh and asked, "How's the Heavenly Palace on the summit of Changbai Mountain?"

The tiger chuckled, "They've all been emptied out."

Fearing that the Nine Gates and the Zhang family would target them, Meng Hu waited until recently before sending someone to move it.

Originally, they planned to keep an eye on them for a while, but their people seemed to have discovered the whereabouts of the Zhang and Wang families, so they kept an eye on them for a longer period of time.

This wait lasted for more than half a year.

Chen Yan nodded and asked, "What about the Zhang Family Ancient Building?"

Old Nine said calmly, "I plan to go along."

Chen Yan glanced at Lao Jiu in surprise. Lao Jiu said, "If the Tigers go, they can only blow up the Zhang family's ancient building. The Zhang family will definitely cause trouble."

"So I'll go too, you know, it'll be safer if I go too."

Chen Yan asked thoughtfully, "The person is already gone?"

"Yes, but I told them to stay in the mountains and not come near."

Chen Yan tapped his fingers lightly on the table, his expression inscrutable as he asked, "How far have Jude Kao's men progressed?"

"Jude Kao's men are already sweeping the mountain," said the tiger. "They withdrew from the mountain and just returned yesterday."

"Brother Yan."

Lao Jiu looked at Chen Yan, and Chen Yan looked up at him. Lao Jiu said, "Wu Xie and the others have come to Beijing. There's an auction at the New Moon Hotel tomorrow."

Upon hearing this, Chen Yan's lips suddenly curled into a smile: "An auction? Okay, then I should be able to go, right?"

Lao Jiu and Meng Hu were speechless. Who would dare stop you from coming in? Boss Yin probably wanted Chen Pi to go and ask her why her son couldn't go in, right?

the next day.

Chen Yan, dressed in a decent casual outfit, appeared at the entrance of the New Moon Hotel with Lao Jiu and Meng Hu.

When the servant at the door saw Chen Yan arrive, he immediately turned his head and lowered his voice to say into the walkie-talkie, "Master Chen has arrived."

After speaking, he stood up straight and watched Chen Yan and the other two walk over.

Upon reaching the door, Chen Yan stopped, and the servant said, "Master Chen."

"Um, may I go in?"

"certainly."

The Crescent Moon Hotel is not open to just anyone; you need to verify your credentials.

However, for the heads of the Nine Gates, that's naturally unnecessary; wouldn't that be a joke?

They're the head of the family now, how could they not afford a meal?

So the servant respectfully stepped aside and extended his hand: "Master Chen, please."

Chen Yan followed the servant into the shop, asking as they walked, "Where should I sit? In the main hall?"

When Gunnu heard this, he felt cold sweat pouring down his forehead. "Brother, don't be ridiculous. Who would dare to let the other heads of the Nine Gates sit in the private rooms while you, the most unruly person in the Nine Gates, sit in the main hall?"

What if you ask: "Why are the other family heads sitting in the private rooms on the second floor, while I'm sitting in the main hall? Are you looking down on the Chen family?"

Didn't the sky fall down at the Crescent Hotel?

So the servant quickly said, "Of course not. Each of the Nine Gates has its own private room. Fourth Master, this way please, I'll take you to your private room."

So frightened was the servant that he changed his way of addressing him. Chen Yan raised an eyebrow and glanced at the servant; the kid was quick-witted.

After following the servant into the hall, Lao Jiu's gaze swept across the hall. Because of today's auction, there were already quite a few people sitting in the hall.

People from all walks of life can be found here.

As soon as Chen Yan and his group walked in, people immediately looked over.

Upon seeing them, many people began to whisper among themselves.

However, Chen Yan didn't care about this matter. He turned around and followed the servant upstairs to the second floor. When they arrived at the door of a private room, the servant pushed open the door and said, "Fourth Master, please."

Chen Yan's gaze fell on the sign at the door.

"A thousand oranges have all ripened, but their fragrance will be remembered throughout history."

Chen Yan raised an eyebrow, intrigued: "This is quite interesting. Whose house is this next to?"

"It belongs to the Xie family."

Chen Yan raised an eyebrow, took a few steps towards the next room, and saw a sign on the door that read: "The crabapple blossoms, unashamed of their crimson hue, stand alone in the misty drizzle."

"The owner of the Crescent Hotel is quite an interesting person."

After Chen Yan finished speaking, he turned and walked into the Chen family's private room. The servant with the stick withdrew, and a maid came in and said, "Fourth Master, the auction won't start for a while. Would you like some snacks and tea?"

Chen Yan leaned back lazily on the sofa: "Keep an eye on Meng Hu."

Tiger responded, glanced at the menu, and casually ordered a pot of tea and two plates of pastries.

After the servant said "wait a moment" and left, Lao Jiu sat down next to Chen Yan and said, "The owner of this Crescent Moon Hotel is indeed interesting."

Chen Yan lazily touched his earlobe and said, "Didn't Tingnu give me a booklet? Let me see it."

The tiger looked at the things that Tingnu brought in along with the menu.
