Chapter 539

In the beginning, Chen Fengxiao spoke tirelessly, as if he was talking about something unrelated to others. But in the end, when he talked about her mother, he did not hide his feelings. There was a look in his eyes that made it difficult to look back on the past.

Hearing this, Zhang Xiaohua's heart ached. She thought of her mother who was far away in the Guozhuang House. Even if she successfully found her second brother, it would still be two years before she could leave the Cult of Fragrance. She did not know how worried her mother would be!

Chen Fengxiao continued, "I was young at that time and believed the promise of the Rejuvenation Valley. I thought that with my intelligence and diligence, I could quickly leave the Cult of Fragrance. Sigh, I was so stupid. I knew that there were not tens of thousands of medicine apprentices who left the Rejuvenation Valley, but who could return to the Rejuvenation Valley?

I only thought that in this world, as long as you had the ability, everything would be fine. Who knew that not everyone in this world was born equal? "

"I only knew that I had to first become an outer disciple to qualify for the assessment. As long as I passed the assessment, I would have the right to roam the Jianghu. So I farmed and practiced martial arts. But how could I know that martial arts were practiced from a young age? No matter how hard I worked, I could not catch up to the standard of an outer disciple.

Moreover, I was homesick and my martial arts were not great. I wanted to pass the assessment. Who knew that this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for every disciple of the Pill Expanding Hall? In the end … "

Zhang Xiaohua did not know what to feel when she heard this. Valley Head Nie of the Rejuvenation Valley was really good to her. It was all thanks to Valley Head Nie that she was able to enter the Cult of Fragrance. But after all, no one was perfect. After hearing Chen Fengxiao's experience, Valley Head Nie did not do the right thing. Of course, from another perspective, to be able to become a medicine apprentice in the Cult of Fragrance, not only did she not have to worry about food and water, but she could also practice martial arts. For an orphan and a widow, it was an extremely bright future.

Sigh, Chen Fengxiao did not want this future. He only wanted to be with his mother. This … this kind of lawsuit, who could say for sure?

When Qiu Wei Cheng saw that Chen Fengxiao had finished speaking, he asked, "Brother Ren, since Head Master Chen has already explained the reason, shouldn't you say something too?"

Zhang Xiaohua didn't pay attention to him. She only asked softly, "Then there was no news of Niangqin after that?"

Chen Fengxiao smiled bitterly. "What news could there be?

At first, I was still young and didn't carry much weight, so Yang Yao didn't pay any attention to me. I begged him countless times, wanting to know a little bit about my mother, but he didn't agree. He only said that it was the sect's rules and he didn't dare to go against them.

Later on, when I gained some reputation, I failed to become an Outer Disciple and refused to be disciplined by the Hall, so I was sent to Tian Mu Peak. Only then did that guy start to pay attention to me. He only brought me one piece of news, and that was about my mother … sigh, news that she died of depression. "

"Sigh ~" Actually, Zhang Xiaohua didn't need Chen Fengxiao to say it. Otherwise, Chen Fengxiao wouldn't have vented his anger on Rejuvenation Valley.

After thinking for a while, Zhang Xiaohua smiled bitterly and said, "To be honest, since Head Master Chen didn't treat me as an outsider and told me the whole story, I naturally can't hide anything. Actually, Valley Head Nie and I aren't relatives. I only have some friendship with his daughter, Nie Qianyu. Of course, this friendship isn't what it looks like on the surface. You may have the opportunity to know about this tonight.

What I need to say again is that I really won't get involved in the feud between Head Master Chen and Rejuvenation Valley. I don't have the right to do so. I only came to the Incense Religion to learn more about alchemy and planting. Moreover, I have the same thoughts as Head Master Chen in the past. I don't plan to stay in the Incense Religion forever. I will also walk the same path as Head Master Chen in the past.

Zhang Xiaohua came to the Incense Religion under the guise of Rejuvenation Valley's prospective son-in-law. Presumably, Yang Yao wanted to report to the Hall Master of Pill Expansion Hall. Chen Fengxiao had a certain amount of influence in the Pill Expansion Hall, so he should be able to find out a thing or two. She didn't need to hide it, but she wasn't a real son-in-law after all. She couldn't deny it either. She could only vaguely explain and express her attitude that she wouldn't get involved in the feud between Rejuvenation Valley and Chen Fengxiao.

As for Zhang Xiaohua wanting to enter the Outer Sect and pass the test to return to Jianghu, that was something she would do in the future. She definitely couldn't hide it from others. Moreover, if Chen Fengxiao could break through the Outer Sect and return to Jianghu, why couldn't she, Zhang Xiaohua, do the same?

Therefore, Zhang Xiaohua made it clear.

On the one hand, she wanted to tell Chen Fengxiao that she was just a passer-by of the Pill Expansion Hall. She had no interest in his Tian Mu Peak and didn't want to replace him to manage the Grass Division. She just wanted to farm peacefully and he didn't need to worry about her. On the other hand, she wanted to tell Chen Fengxiao about her background and win his favor. She wanted to ask him for advice on breaking through the Outer Sect in the future. She even wanted to make use of Chen Fengxiao's influence to help her find her second brother.

When Chen Fengxiao and Qiu Wei Cheng heard this short sentence, they were shocked. Although Zhang Xiaohua didn't explicitly state her relationship with Valley Head Nie, but since she pointed out Nie Qianyu, it was most likely related to love. They were all experienced people, how could they not know?

What surprised them the most was that Zhang Xiaohua didn't hide it from them and told them her purpose in coming to the Incense Religion. It wasn't that there weren't people in Jianghu who wanted to go to a higher level sect to study and practice, but there were absolutely no people who wanted to come to the Incense Religion. This was a path of no return.

However, they immediately understood the mystery. Since it was Valley Head Nie's request, based on the relationship between Rejuvenation Valley and the Incense Religion, they might be able to make an exception. Moreover, Zhang Xiaohua was so young that she could compete with Chen Fengxiao. Others didn't know the strength of an Outer Sect disciple, but Chen Fengxiao was very clear. His martial arts were comparable to an ordinary Outer Sect disciple. If she was given a few more years to pass the Outer Sect examination and roam Jianghu, she would definitely be able to do it.

"Comparisons are odious." Chen Fengxiao and Qiu Wei Cheng looked at each other and laughed bitterly.

Chen Feng smiled and stared at Zhang Xiaohua for a long time, then said sincerely, "Little brother, since you said so, then I'll also tell you. Last night, I thought about a lot of things and wanted to set you up. On the way here with Junior Brother Qiu, we were discussing how to deal with our relationship. Since little brother is so sincere, then I can't refuse. If little brother needs anything from me in the future, just say the word, and I will do my best to help."

Zhang Xiaohua was overjoyed and cupped his hands, "Then I will thank Head Chen first. In the future, there will definitely be many things that I will need your help with."

Chen Fengxiao waved his hand, "We are all brothers, don't be so polite."

Only Qiu Wei Cheng frowned slightly. He looked at Chen Fengxiao and immediately put on a smile, "That's right, brother Ren. In the future, if there is anything that you need, our Tian Mu Peak's Grass Department, erm, Pill Department will be your support."

"Pill Department?" Zhang Xiaohua was stunned.

Qiu Wei Cheng smiled, "Brother Ren, you are weird. Actually, there is a lot of friction between the Pill Department and the Grass Department. But after all, they both belong to the Pill Expanding Hall. Regardless of whether it is Wu Dalang, the Ten Vajras of the Pill Department or the Six Great Luohan of the Grass Department, they are all good brothers who failed to break into the outer sect under Head Chen's guidance."

"Okay, okay."

Chen Fengxiao waved his hand and said, "You make it sound like I am a hero. However, I am defeated by the outer sect disciples and cannot be compared to Lu Lihong. In the future, it will depend on little brother's performance."

"Lu Lihong?"

Zhang Xiaohua was stunned. This was the second time he heard this name. He opened his mouth and was about to ask when Qiu Wei Cheng interrupted, "Head Chen is right. The new generation will replace the old. In the future, it will depend on little brother Ren."

Chen Fengxiao smiled and nodded, "Forget it, let's talk about serious matters. Junior Qiu, tell little brother about the current strength of the Pill Department and Grass Department so that he will know."

Qiu Wei Cheng nodded in agreement. He cleared his throat and said, "The battle between the Grass Department and the Pill Department is usually attended by Head Chen, Wu Dalang, the Ten Vajras and the Six Great Luohan. Because the Grass Department is not strong enough, sometimes we have to let the Grass Department disciples with average martial arts participate.

Actually, just by looking at the number of people, we can see that the Grass Department is at a disadvantage. However, among the 63 people, only Head Chen's martial arts are better than theirs. The rest are of the same level. "

Zhang Xiaohua nodded and said, "If there are only 2 rounds, or 2 rounds, we should be able to gain the upper hand."

Qiu Wei Cheng looked at Zhang Xiaohua unhappily and said, "If little brother Ren can think of it, the Pill Department will naturally be able to think of it too. However, in this battle between the Pill Department and the Grass Department, there has to be a winner in every round. Our brothers from the Grass Department were invited by Head Chen from other peaks. Furthermore, to be honest, their level of martial arts is not very good. The best of them is only around the middle level of the Pill Department. Therefore, in every battle, the Pill Department wins the most and we lose the most."

"Therefore, the pockets of our brothers from the Grass Department are empty. We don't even have any pills. Even when we eat in the dining hall, we can't stand straight."

Chen Fengxiao smiled and said, "If little brother Ren didn't go to the dining hall yesterday, you wouldn't have been bullied by Cheng Shi from the Pill Department. No one from the Grass Department stood up for you."

Qiu Wei Cheng continued, "The good thing is that the number of people participating in the battle is fixed. However, the order of the battles is kept a secret. It is only announced before the start of each battle. Therefore, there are times when our disciples can win a few rounds."

Zhang Xiaohua understood. It was because of this that the Grass Department was able to hold on that the battle was interesting.

Therefore, she asked, "Then for the battle this afternoon, what is Head Chen's plan?"

Chen Fengxiao smiled and said, "Isn't it because we want to see little brother Ren's level of martial arts? Only then can we make a decision and give the Pill Department a surprise."

Zhang Xiaohua nodded and said, "This is my first time here. I will listen to Head Chen's instructions. Everything can be discussed."
