Chapter 1313

Shangguan Mingxing completely lost his composure in front of Zi Chen, but Zi Chen could understand his feelings, so he didn't take it to heart.

"What happened in the Hengduan Mountains?" Ling Xing suddenly asked.

Zi Chen smiled and said, "It's nothing much. It's just that Uncle has been 'chasing' me for a month."

"Chased?"

Ling Xing was a little surprised. He naturally knew that Zi Chen had an ambiguous relationship with Shangguan Hong, but what was this about?

"At that time, I thought it was a chase, but now I think it shouldn't be." Zi Chen smiled faintly.

Shangguan Mingxing couldn't help but feel embarrassed when this matter was brought up again, but he quickly covered it up with anger and shouted, "Boy, are you going or not?"

"Of course I'm going, but the prerequisite is that I have to reforge my weapon."

Zi Chen's insistence made Shangguan Mingxing so angry that he wanted to slap him to death.

Mother Hong was even more sad.

"I've been to the Hengduan Mountains, and I know the restrictions there. They're very powerful, but as long as they don't die immediately, they shouldn't die so easily with their strength."

Zi Chen's original intention was to reassure them, but his words made one more angry and the other more sad.

"Is that senior refiner here?" Zi Chen looked at Ling Xing and asked.

Ling Xing looked at Zi Chen and then at Shangguan Mingxing, then nodded and said, "He just happened to come back. It's said that he'll be here for a long time, so I didn't inform you."

Zi Chen's face immediately lit up and he said, "That's great, I can reforge my sword and shield."

Beside him, Shangguan Mingxing suppressed his anger and asked, "How long will it take to reforge your weapon?"

Zi Chen shook his head and said, "I'm not sure. Last time, I was in a hurry, so it took me nine days. This time, I'm not in a hurry, so I'm going to take a little longer."

His daughter's life was at stake, and this was called not in a hurry? Shangguan Mingxing trembled with anger and almost couldn't control himself from attacking.

Zi Chen nodded at the three and then left.

"Revenge! He is taking revenge on me and the whole Shangguan family!" Shangguan Mingxing was furious, but he didn't count on Zi Chen anymore. He was going to find someone to help him.

Zi Chen was indeed taking revenge because Shangguan Mingxing had scared him out of his wits. It was the first time he had ever been hunted down by a Domain Realm expert.

Hearing Shangguan Mingxing's roar, Ling Xing suddenly laughed out loud.

"What are you laughing at?" Ling Xing laughed out loud, attracting the two's gazes.

"This is the first time I've seen you so angry, so I can't help but want to laugh."

"Do you think it's ridiculous for a father to get angry because he's worried about his daughter?" asked Shangguan Mingxing coldly.

Ling Xing shrugged and said, "Alright, just pretend I didn't say anything. But don't be too sad. Maybe things aren't as bad as we think."

"If it's not bad, why did you ask Zi Chen to come out? I heard that he's the trump card of Hunter's Castle," Shangguan Mingxing said sarcastically.

"Indeed, that was what I thought before I saw Zi Chen. But after seeing Zi Chen, I suddenly understood."

"You understand that my daughter isn't as useful as Zi Chen, right? You don't think it's worth it to sacrifice Zi Chen's life to save my daughter, right?" Shangguan Mingxing retorted.

"Old friend, you have to think positively about everything. Although I don't know much about Zi Chen, I at least know a little about him. It's said that he went completely crazy after the Storm Eagle died. He lost his mind and fought against the alien race's Mirage Dragon. Do you think that a person who cares so much about an animal will ignore one, no, four living people? Not to mention that your daughter is among them. Even a fool can see her feelings for Zi Chen. Even if Zi Chen doesn't want to, he won't ignore her life," Ling Xing said with a smile.

Naturally, Shangguan Hong had told her parents about this matter. Back then, it was to give Zi Chen extra points and leave a good impression on them. Her mother was very touched at the time.

However, now that she saw Zi Chen, not only did he not lose his mind after hearing the news, but he was even laughing and joking around. This made her very confused. She asked doubtfully, "Could it be that Zi Chen is doing this for a deeper reason?"

"Deeper my ass. He's just taking revenge," Shangguan Mingxing said angrily.

Ling Xing stroked his beard and said indifferently, "The target of the siege isn't the four of them. Or rather, it shouldn't be the four of them for now."

"What do you mean?"

"Maybe these people wanted Zi Chen to go from the beginning, but Zi Chen didn't go. That's why the siege happened. I think Zi Chen also guessed it, which is why he's so calm and focused on refining his sword and shield."

"Who are these people? They're from Yanbo Castle. Aren't they here to investigate the alien race? Why are they looking for Zi Chen? They have a grudge with Zi Chen."

"This matter was kept a secret at the time, so I didn't tell you. Maybe their real goal is the Mirage Dragon that was killed, or the things left behind by those experts. I didn't think too much about it before and thought it was just a coincidence. After all, the Hengduan Mountain Range is very strange, and anything can be found there. But now that I think about it carefully, maybe it really is a scheme against Zi Chen."

Shangguan Mingxing was angry when he heard this. "Damn it, they almost died in order to kill the alien race, and now the people from Yanbo Castle are still thinking about them."

Her mother asked worriedly, "If that's really the case, won't Hong 'er and the others be in danger if Zi Chen doesn't go?"

"That should be the case for a short time, but if he doesn't go for a long time, there might be trouble," Ling Xing said.

Shangguan Mingxing was anxious when he heard this. "Then what are we waiting for? Hurry up and find someone to reforge Zi Chen's weapon. I won't let them go for daring to attack my daughter."

Zi Chen went back to his room and began to prepare. In fact, there wasn't much to prepare. He just checked the state of the slumbering soldier spirits and the sealed soldier spirits.

The sealed soldier spirits were very active, while the original sword and shield soldier spirits were in a deep sleep.

Before long, Ling Xing came to find Zi Chen.

"Are you ready?" Ling Xing stood at the door and asked.

Zi Chen nodded.

The two left the castle and walked on the city's main street.

"Why did you deliberately anger Shangguan Mingxing?" Ling Xing broke the silence.

Zi Chen smiled. "It's not anger. I just spoke the truth."

"But you didn't explain it clearly."

"Senior should have already explained it for me."

Ling Xing sighed and said, "I'm ashamed. I only realized it after you left."

Zi Chen smiled. "Senior is wise."

Ling Xing laughed and scolded, "Wise my ass. You're old and muddle-headed."

The two of them laughed.

On the way, Zi Chen asked, "I can guess that they're deliberately targeting me, but I can't figure out where they got the confidence to deal with me in the Hengduan Mountain Range."

"I don't understand it either, but we mustn't be careless. After all, there are many powerful existences in this world. Let's not talk about other places first. Take Huping City as an example. Even a Domain Realm expert would be in trouble if they barged in recklessly. This time, Yanbo Castle's people ran into trouble. They've already summoned many Domain Realm experts and sent some over. Ming Zhu and the others have left, so I'm the only one who has authority in the castle now," Ling Xing said.

Zi Chen nodded.

"By the way, aren't you afraid that Shangguan Mingxing will make things difficult for you in the future and stop you from being together with Shangguan Hong?" Ling Xing suddenly asked.

Zi Chen was stunned when he heard this, but then he smiled and said, "I can't help it. However, he did scare me quite a bit last time."

Ling Xing looked at Zi Chen meaningfully, but he did not say anything.

The two of them walked to the city gate. Zi Chen asked in surprise, "We're leaving the city. That senior is outside."

"He's a strange old man. He doesn't want to live in the city. By the way, it's best if you don't talk to him when you see him. He's weird and has a lot of problems," Ling Xing said.

If the city was a paradise for Corporeal Realm experts, then the outside of the city was a world for Virtual Realm experts and Earth Prime experts. With Huping City as the center, there were traces of cultivators within a radius of ten thousand miles.

These cultivators had gathered here and formed one force after another. They ruled the world outside Huping City.

The flow of people here was no less than in Huping City. One after another, huge trading markets were located here. There were all kinds of things being traded here. Although the quality was very poor, sometimes one would come across one or two good things.

Ling Xing brought Zi Chen to a huge trading market. There were rows of buildings here. Many Virtual Realm experts and Earth Prime experts were entering and exiting. Moreover, hawking could be heard from far away. It was very lively.

These people could not sense Zi Chen and Ling Xing's realms at all. Therefore, even though there were many unfriendly gazes around them, nobody dared to cause trouble along the way. They watched the two of them enter the trading market.

The two of them walked into the depths of the trading market and arrived at a place that specialized in weapons. This place was in the center of the trading market and had a very good geographical location.

However, Ling Xing's target was not the tall buildings around them. Instead, it was the run-down house in the middle that looked like it could barely block the rain.

There was a large window on the wall of the house. A row of weapons were placed outside. These were all Earth Weapons and Virtual Weapons. They did not seem to be of high quality. At the moment, a few Virtual Realm experts were looking at them.

'There's a Domain Realm Master here?' Zi Chen was puzzled.

Ling Xing walked to the door. He pushed it open and entered without knocking.

Zi Chen quickly followed him.

As for the few Virtual Realm experts at the side, they looked at the two of them in surprise.

Those who had stayed here for a long time knew that this seemingly run-down shop sold good things at low prices. However, there was a rule in this place. No one was allowed to enter. All the transactions were done outside.

If they saw something that was suitable and had a price tag on it, they could just put down the money and take it away.

At this moment, the two of them entered rashly. In the eyes of the crowd, these two outsiders did not know the rules.

"Get lost. Who let you in?"

Sure enough, a shout came from the run-down house. The entire run-down house shook. It was obvious that the owner of this place was angry.

In their minds, these two people would be thrown out soon because the owner of this place had an extraordinary background.
