"Isn't this my little friend Xiao Chen? Why are you hiding here? This old man wanted to have a drink or two with you! " An old man's voice came from not far away. Xiao Chen turned his head and saw Jia Jinyan holding a wine glass in his hand and walking toward him with a smile. Behind him were two young men.
"Hello, old man!" Xiao Chen greeted him politely and clinked glasses with Jia Jinyan. When he drained his glass, he felt that something was wrong. Putting down the glass, Xiao Chen looked behind Jia Jinyan and saw the two young men.
One of the young men was Tang Qianling. When Xiao Chen took a closer look, he found that this guy was faintly emitting a black mist that shrouded his whole body. It looked a little strange and gloomy. That was why Xiao Chen felt that something was wrong.
However, this black fog was extremely thin and faint. The surrounding people were very calm, and no one noticed it. Only Xiao Chen, who had an outstanding Spiritual Sense, noticed it at a glance.
As for the other young man, he looked more normal. His looks were not bad, and he was dressed like a dog. He smiled at Xiao Chen, looking more amiable. However, there was not a hint of a smile in his eyes; they were extremely cold.
"Come, Xiao Chen, my little friend, let me introduce you to these two young up-and-coming talents!" Jia Jinyan smiled and turned around to let the two people behind him stand in front of Xiao Chen.
Xiao Chen raised his eyebrows. Was Jia Jinyan trying to build a network for him?
"This is Tang Qianling. He is the heir of the Tang family in the inner martial arts world. He is also the most outstanding one among the third generation of the Tang family." Jia Jinyan introduced Tang Qianling to Xiao Chen.
Xiao Chen replied with an "oh" and looked at Tang Qianling with a faint smile. He was mainly studying the black mist emitted from his body. Tang Qianling's expression was a little distorted, but he still pretended to be calm and nodded.
Jia Jinyan didn't pay much attention to it. After introducing Tang Qianling, he pointed to another young man and said, "This is Yue Dongsheng, my little friend. He is the heir of the Yue family. Not only is he powerful, he also has a strong business mind. He can manage the Yue family well at such a young age. He is indeed a young talent!"
Yue Dongsheng didn't know much about Xiao Chen. After hearing Jia Jinyan praise him so much, he was very pleased and didn't bother to greet him. He just pulled the corner of his mouth and pretended that he had just smiled.
"Hehe, the three of you are all young people. There must be more topics to talk about when you are together. I'm just being a middleman. I'm just being a middleman. I hope you won't blame me for being too presumptuous."
After Jia Jinyan finished his introduction, none of the three people said anything. Only then did he feel that something was wrong. Fortunately, as the Clan Leader, he was shrewd with age. He immediately added a sentence to smooth things over.
Although the three big families of the inner martial arts world seemed to be harmonious on the surface, the competition was very fierce in the dark. This time, Jia Jinyan introduced Tang Qianling and Yue Dongsheng to Xiao Chen in order to help Xiao Chen expand his network. He hoped that Xiao Chen would remember this favor.
Jia Jinyan valued Xiao Chen's unpredictable ability very much. He hoped that Xiao Chen could give Jia Musen more help. That was why he made such a move. It was also for the sake of planning for the future. He had no other choice.
Actually, Jia Jinyan was very clear that a cultivator with such outstanding ability like Xiao Chen definitely had his own ideas. He wouldn't always stay by Jia Musen's side to assist him.
Moreover, Xiao Chen had already told him that sooner or later he would go look for his father. It was even more impossible for him to stay with the Jia Family forever!
Jia Jinyan only hoped that if Jia Musen were to encounter any trouble in the future, Xiao Chen would be able to give him a few words of advice or lend him a hand. He would be perfectly satisfied!
In order to pave the way for Jia Musen, Jia Jinyan thought about it. He didn't expect to be able to use gold, silver, or jewelry to keep Xiao Chen in the Jia Family. After thinking about it, he could only use the Jia Family's influence in the inner martial arts world to make some preparations for Xiao Chen in advance!
"Of course not. Thank you, Clan Leader, for your enthusiasm. Xiao Chen will remember it in his heart." Xiao Chen naturally knew what Jia Jinyan meant. He didn't want to go against his good intentions, so he casually replied. He turned around and nodded in a neither servile nor overbearing manner. He lightly said, "Young Master Tang, Young Master Yue, it's a pleasure to meet you!"
When Jia Jinyan saw that Xiao Chen appreciated his kindness, he felt deeply gratified. He smiled and stood to the side.
Yue Dongsheng quickly responded with a smile. Although he didn't have a good impression of Xiao Chen, Jia Jinyan was still at the side. No matter what, he had to put on an act. Tang Qianling also reluctantly nodded and took it as a greeting.
Xiao Chen didn't take their actions to heart. He only glanced at Tang Qianling indifferently. Suddenly, he said with a surprised expression, "Aiya, it's incredible! It's incredible! Young Master Tang, a divine light shot out from the top of your head. Did you know that? "
Tang Qianling suddenly froze. Why did Xiao Chen's words sound so familiar? Where did I hear it? But I couldn't remember it at the moment! And why did this kid suddenly praise me so much? Could it be that he has some ulterior motives?
Jia Jinyan and Yue Dongsheng also looked at each other in astonishment. They both felt that Xiao Chen was a bit strange.
Jia Jinyan felt that Xiao Chen's words were inexplicable. It didn't seem right to say that he was praising him. But it didn't seem like he was mocking him! What was Xiao Chen trying to do?
Yue Dongsheng, on the other hand, was a little displeased in his heart. Jia Jinyan had clearly introduced the two of them to Xiao Chen just now, yet this brat only praised Tang Qianling and ignored him. Wasn't he a little too condescending?
Looking at Tang Qianling's dumbfounded expression, Xiao Chen smiled and said, "Tsk tsk, I didn't expect you to have such a strong physique at such a young age. You are simply a rare cultivation genius! If one day, you accidentally open up the conception and governing vessels, wouldn't you be like a dragon that soars to the heavens? "
"I say, Xiao Chen, did you take the wrong medicine?" Tang Qianling stared at Xiao Chen suspiciously.
Xiao Chen suddenly approached Tang Qianling and said in a low voice, "How is your cultivation of the Five Poisons Secret Manual? I see that your face is glowing with pride. Could it be that you really succeeded in cultivating this useless thing? "
"Who said it's useless?" Tang Qianling's expression changed and immediately retorted, "After I cultivated the second half of the manual, my level increased by several levels! Now, I'm about to finish cultivating … "
Before he could finish speaking, Tang Qianling suddenly realized that he had let the cat out of the bag. He immediately covered his mouth and widened his eyes vigilantly, staring at Xiao Chen. He was afraid that Xiao Chen would be tempted and come to snatch his secret manual!
