Chapter 181 Confession

"I understand. I will find an opportunity to abort this child as soon as possible."

After clenching her hands, Concubine Song finally turned pale and gave up completely. She also admitted defeat to Mu Yong and stopped talking about not wanting to give up the child.

"That's right. You can't catch a wolf without sacrificing a child. Having He'er is enough for us. If we are too greedy, we will lose more. In the end, we may end up with nothing."

Song Yong said this to Aunt Song again, saying the same things he had said for more than ten years, and then he let her go back along the stairs first.

Only after he saw the entrance and exit of the secret passage close with his own eyes did a look of disapproval appear on his face, and he snorted softly.

This Concubine Song, did she really think he was stupid and so easy to fool? After all these years, how could he really not see that Concubine Song's heart was tied to Mu Heng? She disliked his ugliness, but don't think he really can't see it.

He had always suspected that the children that Concubine Song had conceived and aborted were Mu Heng's. Every time Concubine Song served Mu Heng, she never took medicine as she said.

Now, he even suspected that Aunt Song had never died and wanted to give birth to a child for Mu Heng.

Haha, since he had doubts, how could he allow Aunt Song to really give birth to the child and compete with his He'er to snatch his position as the crown prince?

He is not stupid, nor is he as confused as Mu Heng. How can he be confused after raising someone else's son for so many years? —— "The Mu family... hehe, it really is getting more and more interesting."

After reading the information sent by the carrier pigeon, Kuang Zhihong, who volunteered to be responsible for paying attention to the information from the Mu family, couldn't help but pinch his chin and smiled meaningfully.

After laughing, he stood up and went directly to Old Master Kuang's study room - "Secret passage? The Mu family actually has a secret passage that even Mu Heng, the head of the family, doesn't know about? Mu Yong and Concubine Song often have secret meetings in there?"

Not only Kuang Zhihai and Kuang Zhifeng, but even Old Master Kuang was shocked by this news.

Kuang Zhifeng was surprised: "How did Mu Heng control the Mu family? How could such a big mistake happen?"

"Check this Mu Yong, I'm afraid he has an unusual background."

Kuang Zhihai sneered: "The Mu family has a lot of secrets, and it's getting harder and harder to see. If it weren't for our coincidence that we recognized Qingyin, I'm afraid we would still be kept in the dark and fooled by others. In the end, we would lose our whole family and we don't even know why."

As he spoke, Kuang Zhihai also took out something for everyone to look at.

When Old Master Kuang and the brothers Kuang Zhihong and Kuang Zhifeng took a look, they found that it was a stack of confessions. In addition to clearly stating that Mu Jinghe had betrayed the Kuang family and joined King Yin, it also contained a very detailed map of the Kuang family's compound. It even marked the patrol schedule of the Kuang family's guards and several secret posts...

After seeing this confession, Old Master Kuang, Kuang Zhihong and Kuang Zhifeng all became so angry that their faces turned red.

"This bastard, how did our Kuang family ever let him down? Even if it's just a dog, we should have tamed it. He is so ungrateful."

Kuang Zhihong pounded his fist on the table and cursed, "We gave him too little before. Our Kuang family has given him more than what we have taken back over the years. We didn't want to make things too extreme. They say that we should leave a way out for others so that we can meet again in the future. It seems that we are still too kind."

"Yes, we are indeed too kind to him. It seems that as the grandson of the Kuang family, he has only seen the surface all these years and has not really understood our Kuang family."

Chapter 182: Pitting My Son 1

Kuang Zhifeng's face was not filled with the rage that Kuang Zhihong had, but instead he smiled strangely. He looked up at Kuang Zhihong and said slowly, "Third brother, why don't you let me take over the Mu family's affairs from now on."

Seeing the smile on Kuang Zhifeng's face, Kuang Zhihong felt nervous. He couldn't help but light candles for Mu Jinghe and the Mu family, and nodded and sighed, "You must take it easy, and forgive others when you can.

After all, he is the half-brother and biological father of our Jingyan and Qingyin. If they die in a difficult way, it will affect the reputation of Jingyan and Qingyin. "

"That's right, don't hit the mouse and damage the jade bottle. It will make Jingyan and Qingyin look bad."

Old Master Kuang also warned Kuang Zhifeng with a serious face: "After all, the world is harsh on women. When they get married in the future, they will have our Kuang family as their backer. It doesn't matter whether their natal families like the Mu family are in decline.

But having a family that is ruined, or even extinct, is different from having a family that is notorious. I don't want anyone to use that to make fun of them in the future."

"Don't worry, I know the limits and won't go too far. At least I won't embarrass them and ruin their reputation." Kuang Zhifeng assured with a smile.

"Okay, since you know the limits, you will be in charge of the Mu family's affairs from now on." Seeing that Kuang Zhifeng had given such a guarantee, Old Master Kuang nodded in relief, and Kuang Zhihai spoke.

"Second brother, happiness is better shared with others than happiness alone. You have taken over the affairs of the Mu family. Don't forget to tell us all about any progress at any time so that we can also have fun."

Kuang Zhihong was not surprised that Kuang Zhihai and Old Master Kuang agreed to let Kuang Zhifeng take over the affairs of the Mu family. He grinned and said to Kuang Zhifeng, "I feel that the more we dig into their affairs, the more interesting they will become."

"Okay." Kuang Zhifeng agreed readily.

"It seems you are still free."

Staring at Kuang Zhihong, Old Master Kuang scolded with a smile: "If you have the time to laugh at other people's jokes, why don't you spend more time on practicing martial arts? Didn't you see that Qingyin didn't learn martial arts when she was a child, and how long has she been learning now? But she is only one step away from stepping into the threshold of a martial artist. Your uncle has practiced martial arts for decades, but now he is only a low-level martial artist.

In a few years, when Qingyin, the foreign girl who has practiced martial arts for the shortest time, will catch up and become a high-level martial artist, you, as an uncle, will have to lag behind. How will you put your face when the time comes? Don't you think it's too embarrassing?"

It's so touching. He really deserves to be my biological father, he knows where it hurts and he hits it there? Kuang Zhihong looked at Old Master Kuang with a resentful face: "Dad, tell me the truth, I am not your biological child, you picked me up, right? Otherwise, why am I the only one in the family who has the worst talent in martial arts?"

I haven't been lazy on weekdays, but how come my two brothers, who are also practicing, are both in the late middle-level martial arts and are about to break through to high-level martial arts?

But after more than ten years, I am still struggling in the late stage of low-level warrior and can't even break through to the middle level?

With a bitter face, Kuang Zhihong felt more and more suspicious the more he thought about it, so he wandered around the study looking for it.

"What are you doing wandering around for?"

Old Master Kuang, who was already furious at Kuang Zhihong's nonsense, couldn't help but ask angrily when he saw his behavior.

"I'm looking for a mirror. I need to see if there are any similarities between me and you and mom. If not, don't delay me while I go find my biological parents." Kuang Zhihong answered seriously.

Chapter 183: Pitting My Son 2

"puff--"

"Puff——"

Kuang Zhihai and Kuang Zhifeng couldn't help but burst into laughter.

"Ouch—"

Kuang Zhihong covered his head and wailed. Then he looked at Old Master Kuang who was staring at him after hitting him on the head unexpectedly and almost cried: "It hurts so much. Dad, did I really guess the truth? Otherwise, how could you bear to do such a cruel thing?"

"You already have two sons, but you're still showing off in front of me. Do you think you're still young? If you have the guts, go and say this to your mother."

Old Master Kuang had the urge to strangle this stupid son to death. How dare he make such a joke? If the old woman knew about this, wouldn't she roll her eyes at him and laugh at him for not being able to teach his son?

Thinking of the rules of his family, boys were disciplined by their fathers since they were young. The old woman at home had made fun of him countless times because of this stupid son. Old Master Kuang gritted his teeth at Kuang Zhihong.

After staring at Kuang Zhihong for a while, Old Master Kuang suddenly laughed. He took out a thumb-sized jade bottle of body-tempering pills from his body and asked him, "I have a pill that can help you advance. Qingyin just refined it for me. Do you dare to try it first?"

"dare."

Although he felt that there was something wrong with Old Master Kuang's smile. He seemed to be gloating over someone else's misfortune. However, the words about being able to advance completely touched his heart.

How could he care about anything else? He nodded immediately without hesitation.

"Then take it. Don't blame me for not telling you in advance. Arrange the things on hand first and then retreat to take it. Otherwise, if you advance to the next level and can't come out for a while, it will delay things."

Give the small jade bottle to Kuang Zhihong, Old Master Kuang instructed.

Will I really be able to advance by taking this pill?

Kuang Zhihong, who was originally skeptical about what Old Master Kuang said, couldn't help but look at the small jade bottle with a different look in his eyes when he saw how serious Old Master Kuang was.

Kuang Zhihai and Kuang Zhifeng were excited after hearing this. They glanced at the jade bottle in Kuang Zhihong's hand, and then turned their gaze to Old Master Kuang.

"Well, don't worry."

With a light cough, Old Master Kuang only wanted to trick Kuang Zhihong, so he was unwilling to tell him about the great pain he would face after taking the Body Tempering Pill.

He didn't think that even Kuang Zhihai and Kuang Zhifeng were tricked, so it was not appropriate to give the pill to them in front of Kuang Zhihong. He made an excuse and said, "But no one has tried this pill properly. I don't know how long one has to stay in seclusion. Let's let the third brother try it first and see how it goes. Will we take turns later? So you should all finish the important things in your hands first."

Let's first see how effective it is for Kuang Zhihong.

Moreover, it was obvious that Old Master Kuang was angry with Kuang Zhihong and wanted to teach him a lesson. How could Kuang Zhihai and Kuang Zhifeng not see that? Although they knew that Old Master Kuang's method of punishing Kuang Zhihong was the elixir, they believed that Old Master Kuang would not really let his son suffer too much. At most, he would just teach him a lesson.

So the two of them, although they couldn't guess what the secret of the elixir was for a while, they were not too worried.

Since you can't guess it, just wait and see. Anyway, you're not the one who's going to be cheated.

Kuang Zhihai and Kuang Zhifeng smiled at each other tacitly with the "bad intention" of "it's better for the fellow Taoist to die than for the poor Taoist to die". They looked at Kuang Zhihong who was still grinning foolishly with some sympathy and nodded to Old Master Kuang.

(End of this chapter)

Chapter 184 Don't do business that makes a loss

Seeing that Kuang Zhihai and Kuang Zhifeng understood his intention, Old Master Kuang did not stop them and started laughing too.

It's not that Kuang Zhihong didn't notice all this, but he didn't seem to care.

cough......

Well, he admitted it. It's not that he really doesn't care, but he knows that it's useless to care. Who told him to be so mean before?

With excitement and a bit of trepidation, Kuang Zhihong took the Body Tempering Pill back to his own courtyard. After finishing the tasks at hand, he could not wait to go into the training room for retreat.

After taking the Body Tempering Pill, he felt the unbearable pain sweeping over his body. It was as if all the bones in his body were broken and reassembled one by one. Kuang Zhihong: "..."

There was never a moment when Kuang Zhihong felt like crying and laughing at the same time.

He wanted to cry. Others were cheating their fathers, but why did their old man refuse to suffer and cheat his son? He wanted to laugh. But because of the family heritage, he had more experience than others. He knew very well that the more powerful the pill was, the greater the effect would be.

It seems that at least the old man hasn't let him down in terms of advancement.

Kuang Zhihong gritted his teeth and tried hard not to faint. Normally speaking, if he fainted, the effect of the pill would be greatly reduced.

Of course he didn't dare to take such a risk.

His cultivation speed had always been slower than his two elder brothers, although only his father would occasionally say a few words to poke his lungs. Others would never bring it up intentionally or unintentionally, making him feel embarrassed.

But Kuang Zhihong still cares about this deep down in his heart.

He was bothered by his poor talent for cultivation, and he had put in twice the effort but still had no hope of advancing. Now that he had this opportunity to advance, he was willing to do it even if it meant death in pain.

With such a strong obsession, Kuang Zhihong slowly began to try to practice his own skills.

As soon as the technique started to work, Kuang Zhihong immediately felt the pain in his body doubled.

If the pain before was just something that ordinary people could not tolerate, then at this moment, the meridians in the whole body were really breaking inch by inch, the skin was cracking, and the pain and fear of bright red blood constantly gushing out were enough to make even people with strong willpower want to give up.

I can't faint, if I faint, all the pain will be in vain. I can't do such a loss-making business.

Although his father would cheat his son, he would not really harm him. The broken meridians must be just his illusion. If they were really broken, his martial arts would have stopped functioning long ago. He just had to hold on a little longer. It wouldn't take long for everything to pass. He must not fail at the last moment. Kuang Zhihong, who was in so much pain that his consciousness had already begun to blur, subconsciously kept convincing himself.

He held on until the technique completed a full cycle and he felt the pain subside. When the broken meridians in his body healed automatically, he finally breathed a sigh of relief and allowed himself to faint, exhausted to the point where he didn't even have the strength to move a finger. "Ha, ha, ha, ha."

When he opened his eyes, Kuang Zhihong felt a foul odor coming to his nose. However, before he could despise it or find out where the odor came from, he immediately realized that he had advanced.

His face became serious, and he could not wait to sit cross-legged, with his five hearts facing the sky, and practiced his Qi to explore. This exploration made Kuang Zhihong no longer able to hold back his laughter.

It's no wonder that Kuang Zhihong lost his composure. If anyone found out that his cultivation had stagnated for many years without any progress, he would be shocked. He suddenly jumped two levels from the late stage of a low-level warrior to the middle stage of a mid-level warrior. I'm afraid he would lose his composure even more than he is now.

(End of this chapter)

Chapter 185 The Inner Demon Dissipates

Mid-level warrior.

This is a mid-level warrior. Kuang Zhihong's face couldn't help but be excited.

Even compared with his elder brother and younger brother, the mid-level warrior after taking the Body Tempering Pill was still inferior to their late-level warriors before taking the Body Tempering Pill.

However, we know how difficult it is to advance in cultivation. Often, even more than ten years of unremitting efforts may not lead to the desired result.

Moreover, the later you practice, the more difficult it becomes, just like climbing a mountain that is so high that it reaches the clouds and whose peak cannot be seen.

Not only can you not see how high or far the road ahead is, you also have to guard against unpredictable gale forces and inner demons that are like boulders that could roll down at any time.

One mistake could result in all your cultivation being lost and you becoming possessed.

Previously, because he also used the last remaining resources of the family, he could only cultivate to the level of a low-level warrior in the late stage. No matter how hard he worked, he still made no progress for many years and fell far behind his two brothers.

Kuang Zhihong has already realized that his mentality is collapsing uncontrollably.

It's not that he didn't realize that his mentality couldn't go on like that, and he would end up being haunted by his inner demons and his cultivation ruined. He was already consciously controlling himself, not letting his mentality continue to collapse too much.

But he tried all kinds of methods, and finally realized in despair that his collapsed mentality was like a wild horse that had broken free from its reins. If he couldn't find a way to truly tame the wild horse, he would eventually lose control when he could no longer hold the reins.

He knew very well that the only way to truly tame a wild horse was to advance.

If the Kuang family was at its peak many years ago, perhaps it would not be too difficult to allow a warrior who had been stuck in the late low level for a long time to advance.

But the Kuang family has been in decline for a long time.

When the brothers were young, things were still good. At that time, the family at least had some resources to provide them with, allowing them to smoothly step into the threshold of warriors from ordinary warriors early on.

But by the time the brothers' next generation came around, the family's resources were completely exhausted, and his sons, nephews, and nieces had to rely on themselves.

Although there are not many shortcuts in the path of cultivation, most of them rely on one's own hard work year after year and day after day. However, with the same effort, there is still a huge difference between having resources and not having them.

Back then, the three brothers and their sister Yaniang had resources. Those with better talents were fourteen or fifteen years old, while those with lesser talents were eighteen or nineteen. They were all able to successfully advance from ordinary warriors to warriors before the age of twenty.

But when it comes to their next generation, there is no more resource support. Even if a child with the best talent has reached the age of 20, it is still difficult to cross the threshold between ordinary warriors and warriors.

Whenever Kuang Zhihong thought of this, he felt inexplicably heartbroken, and couldn't help but feel annoyed that he had wasted the family's resources. His uncontrollable self-blame would always make his mentality slide deeper into the abyss - but now it's all right.

While advancing, Kuang Zhihong also found that his previous inner demons had completely dissipated.

Body Tempering Pill, this is really a good thing.

With it, the children of the family will no longer have to worry about being trapped among ordinary warriors and unable to make any progress.

Compared to that, a little bit of pain is nothing. "Ha, ha, ha, ha."

Laughing heartily once again, Kuang Zhihong had already forgotten the so-called little bit of pain he just downplayed. It tortured him to the point of fainting from the pain before.

(End of this chapter)

Chapter 186 Another Body Tempering Pill

When he finally stopped laughing and calmed down, Kuang Zhihong felt that the stench around him was getting stronger and stronger. He looked around and soon found that the source of the stench was himself.

I saw that my body was covered with a thick layer of black, hard scabs formed by dirt.

He didn't notice anything before he saw it, but when he saw it clearly, Kuang Zhihong suddenly felt as if ants were crawling all over his body. The itch was unbearable but he didn't know how to scratch it.

He jumped up in a hurry, opened the door of the training room and rushed out, thinking only of washing himself quickly.

However, he had just rushed out of the training room, only to see a group of people gathered outside - his parents, wife, two brothers, his son, and nephew, all staring at him in amazement.

Kuang Zhihong: "."

Not until he finally washed himself clean after changing several buckets of water, Kuang Zhihong's heart was still as if a thousand horses were galloping through it.

However, no matter how embarrassing it was, he couldn't hide no matter how hard he tried. He took the Body Tempering Pill and closed himself off for four days and three nights, advancing two levels in a row. This affected almost everyone in the Kuang family.

The reason why there were so many people watching outside his training room before was because he did not come out for a long time. In addition, the Kuang family's most advanced masters, Kuang Old Master, Kuang Zhihai, and Kuang Zhifeng all noticed his advancement.

Therefore, Kuang Zhihong has no chance of hiding unless he explains in detail what happened after taking the Body Tempering Pill.

Before, he was allowed to wash first because he smelled so bad that people had to cover their noses and avoid him.

Otherwise, even if he was dirty and smelly, he would have to wait until everyone's curiosity was satisfied before washing. He had no choice but to endure it even if he felt he couldn't bear it.

After Kuang Zhihong washed up, he came out. Seeing that he was fine, Old Madam Kuang and his wife Yuan Xiuhua just gave some instructions and had someone bring him some porridge and side dishes. They did not show up again and let him be surrounded by Old Madam Kuang and his children and grandchildren.

Helplessly, Kuang Zhihong could only fill his stomach in front of everyone while explaining the process of advancement. He also had to answer all kinds of questions from everyone.

However, apart from the fact that he was still worried about being embarrassed by his family members because of his dirty and smelly appearance at the beginning, when he mentioned the process of advancing after taking the Body Tempering Pill, Kuang Zhihong was immediately in high spirits. All the embarrassment and embarrassment were thrown away.

"Haha, it seems that God will not destroy our Kuang family. With this Body Tempering Pill, even if our Kuang family still cannot produce a genius with excellent spiritual roots and talents in the future, we don't have to worry about the family's continuous decline."

After listening carefully to Kuang Zhihong's story, especially when he mentioned what happened after taking the Body Tempering Pill and then practicing the cultivation method, Old Master Kuang couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Reaching out and patting Kuang Zhihong on the shoulder, Old Master Kuang looked at him with a rare admiring look and praised him, "Not bad, the method you came up with is enough to be credited to you. If you have merit, you should be rewarded. I might as well reward you with another Body Tempering Pill."

After saying that, Mr. Kuang immediately took out a small jade bottle containing a body-tempering pill from his sleeve pocket and handed it to Kuang Zhihong.

I actually got another body-tempering pill.

Kuang Zhihong was overjoyed. He carefully took the small jade bottle and held it in his hands, as if he was holding a rare treasure. No, this body-hardening pill is much more precious than a rare treasure for a martial artist.

No one laughed at him.

Because any martial artist who knows the effect of this Body Tempering Pill will react in the same way.

(End of this chapter)

Chapter 187: Grandpa Kuang's Instructions

At this moment, all those who had not received the Body Tempering Pill, even though they knew that they would definitely receive a portion of the Body Tempering Pill, still stared at the small jade bottle in Kuang Zhihong's hand with fiery eyes.

Who wouldn't want more good things? Everyone knows that if the family has them, they will naturally not lack their resources.

However, even in the case of abundant resources, unless they are recognized as having made contributions to the family like Kuang Zhihong, they can only get a portion of the resources from the family, and forget about getting more.

"You're all envious and can't wait, right?"

Glancing at everyone with a smile, Old Master Kuang said cheerfully, "Don't blame me for not reminding you in advance, this Body Tempering Pill is only effective when you take it for the first time.

The second and third times, from now on, even if you eat it as a meal, it will be useless. So in order to prevent any of you from being too eager for quick success, this body-hardening pill will not be available before you reach the peak of ordinary warriors. "

I remember that when Mu Qingyin gave me this Body Tempering Pill, she didn't mention that the effect of practicing martial arts while taking this pill would be better.

Thinking back to what Kuang Zhihong had described about the breakthrough, although he did not say much about the pain he had endured at the time, he still sensed a hint of danger in it.

Although risks and opportunities coexist, Kuang Zhihong's situation is different from others. He has been stuck at the low level of warrior for a long time, and his desire to break through and upgrade is a thousand times stronger than others.

That's why he was able to hold on even in such extreme pain, but it's hard to say for others.

After hesitating for a while, Old Master Kuang finally spoke to everyone, "Taking this body-tempering pill, the effect will be just as good even if you don't practice any auxiliary exercises. You can act accordingly.

If you feel that you can still endure, that's fine, but don't try to be stubborn. If you can't endure, it's not shameful not to practice the exercises or to give up halfway through. As the saying goes, there is life, there is hope. Just remember to try to stay awake."

Everyone nodded in agreement to Old Master Kuang's earnest instructions, regardless of whether they remembered them or not, or whether they had other ideas in their minds.

Kuang Zhihong nodded in agreement with everyone else, but he sighed in his heart: Old man, it's obvious that when taking the Body Tempering Pill, if you practice the exercises at the same time.

Although the pain would be doubled, the effect should also be doubled. Why did he start to feel sorry for his children at home at an inappropriate time?

It is said that a kind person cannot lead an army, but the old man did the opposite, and still managed to convince his children and grandchildren, most of the clan members, and subordinates to trust him. This is probably related to the old man's usual protectiveness.

The old man always showed his sincerity to those he recognized. Although he would not protect them regardless of right or wrong, he was always extremely tolerant and considerate.

Of course, if anyone thinks that the old man is soft and easy to talk to, or that he is easy to manipulate, then they are completely wrong. When it comes to being ruthless, the old man is more ruthless than anyone else.

Back then, when he was not yet born and the old man was still young, it was said that when their entire clan retreated from the Upper Kingdom back to their hometown in Dazhao, many people from the side branches were not only unwilling to follow their main branch, but also became disloyal and wanted to collude with others to plot against the main branch. In the end, the old man took action. After listening to the elders in the family talking about the fate of those people, Kuang Zhihong couldn't bear to think about it.

(End of this chapter)

Chapter 188 The Old Master Invites

Thinking of this, Kuang Zhihong sighed.

Unfortunately, the old man is old after all. In recent years, his methods have become much more gentle, and he has also begun to be more compassionate to the younger generation in the family.

What a rare opportunity to advance by taking the Body Tempering Pill? Is this the time to pity the younger generation?

He wanted to stand up and refute the old man's words, but the old man's past prestige was too great, and in the end Kuang Zhihong rubbed his nose and backed off.

He thought that he had only "offended" the old man a few times as a joke, but the old man was so cruel to him and let him experience the power of the Body Tempering Pill without any preparation.

Alas, this is the old man. When he is soft and tolerant to you, he is really soft and tolerant. But when he is cruel to you, it is also genuine and cruel. He is even more ruthless when he tricks the younger generation, especially his own son among the younger generation. Although the old man's ruthlessness this time accidentally made him discover a way to double the effect of the body-hardening pill, and he also got an extra body-hardening pill. But how dare he not remember? How dare he easily provoke the old man again? Thinking of the old man's endless means, Kuang Zhihong immediately shifted his mind to the body-hardening pill. Thinking of the only chance for a person to take it, Kuang Zhihong couldn't help but look at the small jade bottle in his hand with regret. But no matter how regretful it is, he can't take this body-hardening pill himself, but who doesn't have close friends?

This thing is not only very useful as a gift, but it is also very good for winning over the people under you.

Even though they have a loyalty pill now, they are not afraid of their subordinates having second thoughts. But they still have to give benefits when they should, otherwise you can guarantee the loyalty of your subordinates but cannot guarantee that they will work harder.

After all, not being able to betray doesn't mean that you can't slack off, right?

He happily collected the Body Tempering Pill, and then sent off Old Master Kuang and the others. Kuang Zhihong was also full and naturally went back to his room to have a good sleep.

After a whole night, the excitement of advancing still stimulated him. The next morning, he could not wait to enter the practice room again. It took him more than half a month to consolidate his cultivation, and finally his cultivation was completely stable.

That day, just as Kuang Zhihong stepped out of the training room, he heard the guard outside come up to report that Old Master Kuang had sent someone to ask him to come over as soon as he came out.

"But what's the matter?"

Kuang Zhihong thought that he had been focusing on cultivation for the past half month and had not paid much attention to other things at home. He knew almost nothing about what happened at home, so he asked casually, "Has there been any changes at home recently?"

"The person sent by the old man didn't say what the matter was. Everything is fine at home these days, nothing big has happened, and there have been no changes." The guard replied respectfully.

"Okay, got it." He waved his hand to let the guards retreat. Even though it was already late, Kuang Zhihong still went to Old Master Kuang's study in person.

"Greetings, Third Master." As they approached the courtyard where Old Master Kuang's study was located, the gatekeeper bowed to Kuang Zhihong.

"Is the old man still in there?" Kuang Zhihong asked as he threw a purse over.

"Thank you for the reward, Master San."

He swiftly reached out and took the purse. The gatekeeper immediately nodded with a smile: "The old man is still here, and even the first and second masters are here too."

"Are they all here?"

Kuang Zhihong was thoughtful. It seemed that the old man had asked him to come for something. What was it? While thinking this, he entered the study of old master Kuang.

(End of this chapter)

Chapter 189 Mention

"Now that everyone is here, I'll just say it directly."

Seeing Kuang Zhihong coming in, Old Master Kuang nodded slightly, and without any delay, he spoke to Kuang Zhihong and Kuang Zhifeng, who had not yet sat down, and said: "I have already discussed this with your eldest brother.

We decided that the main force of the family would go to the Boundless Forest in the future. Only we can gain a foothold there and then develop. We will make it the most solid and reliable backing for our Kuang family and a place to retreat.

In this way, when our Kuang family returns to the upper country, we will have greater confidence. Even after returning, as long as our family still has people in the Boundless Forest, we will no longer have to fear the future.

There is no need to worry that one day hundreds of years from now, our Kuang family will again be unable to produce descendants with outstanding spiritual roots and talents because of a clan leader who chose the wrong side one day.

We might end up in the same predicament as your grandfather did when he had to leave Shangguo and return to Dazhao."

At this point, Mr. Kuang seemed to recall something unpleasant, took a deep breath, and said expressionlessly, "It is said that it is hard to leave one's hometown, and our Kuang family has been operating in the upper country for hundreds of years.

Although it is not the original ancestral homeland of our ancestors, for us, the descendants, the place where we have taken root for hundreds of years can still be called our homeland.

But we had to abandon the glory of our ancestors and most of the ancestral property they left behind. We could only barely keep our ancestral home and left as a family, in a state of disgrace."

Old Master Kuang paused, his face twitching slightly uncontrollably. He slowly closed his eyes, isolating all the emotions in them.

The three brothers Kuang Zhihai, Kuang Zhifeng and Kuang Zhihong were no exception. Their faces kept changing, and they all showed various expressions of grief, anger and sadness.

The three of them didn't say anything, but followed Mr. Kuang's silence.

"hehe--"

After a long while, Mr. Kuang finally came out of his previous emotions, laughed dryly, and said to Kuang Zhifeng and Kuang Zhihai: "We have strayed from the topic. In short, we are doing this for the sake of our children and grandchildren."

He stared out the window and said, "I personally don't want our descendants to endure the suffering, hardships, and humiliation that your grandfather went through.

But you should know that compared with the suffering, difficulties, and humiliation that everyone had endured in the past, at that time, the only thing that was more important was to find a way to survive, even if you had to kneel down and beg for a way out for your people.

As long as the green mountains remain, there will be no shortage of firewood. Therefore, our retreat to the Boundless Forest is extremely important. Only in this way, our Kuang family will not encounter the difficulties that our family encountered before, even if it is unknown in the future, even if it is hundreds of years later.

Even when the situation is even worse and we have to retreat, or even when there is no place to retreat. As long as we have a retreat to the Boundless Forest behind us, our Kuang family can truly be free of worries and fears. "

Looking at the brothers Kuang Zhifeng and Kuang Zhihong, Old Master Kuang coughed again and asked, "This is a major event that will benefit our Kuang family for generations to come. Are you two willing to be the pioneers and be recorded in the family tree in the future?"

"Of course I am willing. Dad, how could we not be willing to contribute to the family?"

Kuang Zhifeng and Kuang Zhihong looked at each other, and Kuang Zhifeng said to Old Master Kuang with a serious expression: "But the Endless Forest, although there are many opportunities for immortals there, there are also many resources that are not available in other places.

But everyone knows that the place is far away and more dangerous than other places. There will be a tide of beasts every ten years or even shorter."

Chapter 190 Objection

"Yes, Dad, it's not that we are afraid of death. But once a beast tide appears, it is simply beyond the manpower of a family, clan or even a country to resist."

Kuang Zhihong said with some worry: "The beast tide is a great disaster. If it happens, many years of business will be destroyed. If you are not careful, you may even lose your life."

Looking at Old Master Kuang, Kuang Zhihong shook his head and advised, "Dad, we are not afraid of losing our lives, we just think it's not worth it. That place is too mysterious, the beast tide keeps coming without any warning. It's hard to say when it will come.

It is said that the tide comes every ten years, but is there any regularity? Is it rare for the beast tide to come every three to five years?

Let's go. Although we have the financial resources to build a solid bunker in the border town, it is not difficult to have a safe place to stay when the beast tide comes, but who can guarantee that our people will be near the bunker when the beast tide comes? Once the beast tide attacks, the defense of the border town can't resist it for even a quarter of an hour. There, didn't the old man in the family mention that the emperor of the upper country also had the idea of it, but didn't he return in defeat with the power of a big country? "

"That's right."

Kuang Zhifeng also advised: "This time, our family, including the direct descendants and the children of the side branches, plus the people under us, have broken through to the level of warriors, and there are already two to three thousand of them.

My elder brother and I have successfully advanced to the early stage of high-level warriors. You have become a rare high-level late-stage warrior even in the upper country. And this does not include the women in the backyard.

Seeing that our family's strength has been restored to a large extent, even if we return to the Upper Country immediately, we can regain a foothold in the Upper Country. But going to the Endless Forest?"

He shook his head and looked at Old Master Kuang helplessly: "Even if more of us advance to warriors, with the Body Tempering Pill, we won't be worried about lack of stamina in the future, and we won't be short of warriors. I'm afraid we can't afford to send people to a place like the border town and suffer losses."

"Yes, if you are afraid that the family will encounter disasters in the future, then we can find a suitable place to build a backup elsewhere. Why do we have to go to the Endless Forest?"

I heard that with the help of the Body Tempering Pill, there were actually so many people in the family who advanced to become warriors. The strength of my father and two brothers has even improved. I am afraid that even the royal family of Dazhao may not have such a powerful force.

Now, even if there are people like Yin Wang who are blind and think that becoming the emperor of Dazhao can deal with the Kuang family and seize their treasures, they are completely wrong.

Knowing that the family is different now, Kuang Zhihong is extremely happy. His gloomy mood caused by Old Master Kuang's reminiscing about the past has become bright again, and he said this to Old Master Kuang with a smile on his face.

There was joy in his eyes: "With our family's current strength, there is no place in the world that we can't go. Why do you have to go to the Endless Forest if you are tired of living?"

At this moment, the happy Kuang Zhihong even began to secretly feel that his grandfather was thinking too far ahead.

This is all thinking about hundreds of years later. Well, hundreds of years later, their bones will be almost melted, and they don't know whether their descendants will be blessed or cursed after many generations. How can they control it?

Although Kuang Zhihong did not say this explicitly, his face inevitably revealed a hint of disapproval, which could not escape the eyes of the shrewd Old Master Kuang.

Old Master Kuang went to see Kuang Zhifeng again and found that even Kuang Zhifeng seemed to agree with Kuang Zhihong.

These two bastard sons, did everything I said before go to waste?
