Chapter 4298: Gathering Bell

Inside the wooden building, the atmosphere is as calm as water and extremely harmonious.

Fu Zhenghong stared at Chen Xiao with bright eyes, waiting for his reply and a promise from him.

Chen Xiao was also looking at Fu Zhenghong. After a moment, he smiled, "Old madam, do you want a promise from me?"

Fu Zhenghong nodded vigorously and said: "Yes, after I leave, I need someone to help me protect the Fu family. Only you can do this."

After hearing this, Chen Xiao shook his head and did not answer.

Fu Zhenghong's face darkened and he asked, "What does this mean?"

Chen Xiao looked solemn and said calmly: "As the old saying goes, if you rely on everyone to fall, you will fall. I can't protect your Fu family. Only you, the Fu family, can protect yourselves, right?"

The implication is that only Fu Xue can do this. He can't do it and won't do it.

In his heart, the only person he really cared about was Fu Xue, not the entire Fu family.

Chen Xiao's attitude surprised Fu Zhenghong.

She was silent for a moment, thinking, and then said: "I know what happened in the valley medicine garden. It's really unfortunate for my family. You are laughing at it."

Chen Xiao smiled noncommittally and said: "Where there is oppression, there will be resistance. When the internal pressure reaches a limit, it will explode uncontrollably. Old Madam, you should know this, right? ?"

As soon as these words came out, Fu Zhenghong's background was revealed, and it was also the biggest worry in her heart.

Today's Fu family looks great and stable on the outside, but she is the only one who knows the actual inside story.

It has long been rotten inside and has been suffering for a long time. It cannot be cured. The resistance underneath

The voices were getting louder and louder. If she hadn't been suppressed by a strong Immortal Realm person like her, turmoil would have broken out long ago.

Now, her health is deteriorating and she feels increasingly powerless.

In this case, if Chen Xiao is a strong deterrent, then she can sit back and relax.

However, Chen Xiao did not agree, but refused, which made Fu Zhenghong a little disappointed, but it seemed to be expected.

Faced with Chen Xiao's aggressiveness, Fu Zhenghong smiled bitterly and said, "Yes, I don't know. I just can't take action. After all, I am one of my own."

"Oh, it's just an excuse." Chen Xiao mocked.

"..." Fu Zhenghong's face turned green and looked a little ugly.

But Chen Xiao obviously didn't care. He only said: "I will not get involved in the affairs of your Fu family, at least until Fu Xue officially takes over. What you want to do is your own business." , Old lady, what do you think?"

Fu Zhenghong's face turned abnormally red, and his eyes were full of bloodlust.

"Okay, your words are enough."

"Oh, old madam, what are you going to do next? What happened with Fu Li and Fu Xiao is not an exception. There must be many such existences in the Fu family. Can you still control them?"

Chen Xiao said coldly.

This was what he was really worried about, and it was also why Marquis Zijin ordered him to come to Fujiacheng secretly.

If Fu Zhenghong couldn't control the situation to avoid chaos, he might as well help.

If we get to that point, the worst case scenario will happen, and I hope it won't be like that.

Fu Zhenghong smiled faintly, glanced at Chen Xiao, and said: "Don't worry, even if you risk your life, you still have to create a safe place for Fu Xue."

In my family, there are some things that I have to do, which are not her responsibility. "

"Yeah." Chen Xiao smiled sincerely.

At this time, Fu Xue walked over with a light gait and a smile on her face, holding the brewed hot tea.

Beside her, Zuo Zhao, who was half a step behind, followed step by step, inseparable.

Fu Zhenghong glanced at the two, then at Chen Xiao, and smiled with satisfaction.

Some things are left unsaid, and it would not be beautiful if they were revealed.

"Captain, your tea, ancestor, this cup is yours." Fu Xue served the tea carefully.

When Zuo Zhao saw it, he automatically stood behind Chen Xiao and remained silent.

While serving tea, Fu Xue glanced at Fu Zhenghong carefully and asked in a low voice: "Captain, what did you talk about? You seem very happy?"

Chen Xiao smiled slightly and said, "You can ask her yourself."

"Ancestor?" Fu Xue was stunned for a moment and looked at Fu Zhenghong.

However, they found that Fu Zhenghong's expression was extremely serious at this moment, his face was like an iceberg, and he said in a deep voice: "Fu Xue, go ring the gathering bell. I want to summon all the clan members in the city to discuss matters."

"Meeting clock?"

Fu Xue's heart tightened, knowing that something big was about to happen, but she still did it.

"Yes, I understand."

Fu Xue stood up, flew towards the top of Lingfeng Mountain, where a huge black bell stood.

"boom."

Soon, the bell rang, and the sound was like thunder, spreading throughout Fujia City and reaching every corner. The people in the city stopped their original movements and looked at the Lingfeng with doubtful eyes.

"What is this sound? It sounds like a bell?"

"What's going on? Where's the bell coming from? I'm curious.

Weird. "

While talking, the bells continued to ring.

"boom."

The bell rang nine times in a row. All the monks of the Fu family in the city changed their expressions. Their eyes were filled with solemn expressions. They looked at the core of the family, the Lingfeng Immortal Mountain, and gathered towards it.

"The bell rings nine, it's the gathering bell. Let's go and have a look. The ancestor must have something important to announce."

"The gathering bell? It hasn't rung for a long time, what happened this time?"

"Who cares? Just go and see. The ancestor summoned me, so there must be something wrong."

"Don't you know? Many things have happened in the clan recently, and they have been suppressed. Now it seems that they can't be suppressed anymore."

"What's the matter? What's the matter? Tell me."

"Shh, keep your voice down. I don't want to be punished by the ancestor."

Thousands of Fu family cultivators came from all directions and gathered at the family's Lingfeng ancestral home. There was a constant stream of people, some running on the ground, some flying in the air, with different expressions, gathering on the square in front of Lingfeng and standing one by one.

At a glance, there were tens of thousands of people, standing in their respective positions according to their status and strength.

The Fu family elders, led by Fu Yanshan, stood at the front, looking arrogant, with extraordinary momentum, and secretly exchanging glances, as if discussing something.

On the top of the spiritual peak, Fu Zhenghong looked down with a calm look, and said, "Xue'er, follow me."

Fu Xue removed the disguise on her face, revealing her true appearance, responded, and followed Fu Zhenghong.

The two of them moved and appeared on the steps of the square.

"Greetings, ancestor."

On the square, the dark crowd saw Fu Zhenghong appear, and all bowed their heads to greet him.

The voice came like a tide, which made people's blood surge and excited.

But Fu Zhenghong's face did not show any joy, just nodded slightly, without saying much.
