"Well, there is no need to explain between us. I can understand. After all, he is your future son-in-law, and I won't ask much. But you always refuse to tell me who framed Dragon Teeth back then. Can you tell me now?"
Shen Moru's tone was full of jealousy that could not be concealed. In those days, the three of them were like brothers and lived and died together on the battlefield. They were all good brothers who could entrust their backs to each other.
As a result, Dragon Teeth and Dragon Horn were engaged in the future in-laws one step ahead of time, which made him very jealous and angry for a long time.
Xiao Baiyu had no time to pay attention to his jealousy and said in a serious tone, "I have been investigating, but the other party is very strict. Every time I find a key clue, I am killed. I suspect that it is related to the Zhao Family in Yan Jing."
"You mean my in-laws, the Zhao Family?" Shen Moru was shocked and asked in disbelief.
"Your in-laws? Your Shen Family and the Zhao Family are connected by marriage? "Xiao Baiyu asked in surprise.
Shen Moru said worriedly, "You know, I've never cared about my family's affairs. Not long after Muqing was born, my old master and the old master of the Zhao Family privately arranged a marriage when they were drinking. Later, because of Muqing's poor health, the two families never mentioned it again, so the news has always been blocked. The Zhao Family is also watching. Once Muqing's health gets better, they will definitely bring up the old matter again. What's more, Zilong and Muqing are childhood sweethearts. Even if Muqing's health is not good, he never leaves her and often makes time to see her. But if Zhao Tianya is really the murderer who framed the boss of Dragon Teeth, I will never agree to this marriage."
Xiao Baiyu also knew that the marriage between big families was related to the interests of the whole family. Even though Shen Moru had the right to speak in the Shen Family, he could not decide such a big thing as the marriage. Everything depended on the Shen Family's old master. As an outsider, he could not say much, so he could only sigh and comfort him.
"I just suspect, but there is no conclusive evidence. Anyway, Muqing is only 20 this year, so there is no hurry to get married. There is still time. I will check it again. You try to delay it as much as possible. To say the least, even if the Zhao Family is behind the scenes, it may be done by the current master of the Zhao Family, Zhao Tianya, in private. The Zhao Family may not be involved in it. I have also heard of Zhao Tianya's son, Zhao Zilong. He is handsome, gentle and elegant. The rarest thing is that he does not have the playboy style of a big family. He has superior ability and is courteous to the wise. He has the demeanor of Lord Mengchang in ancient times. He is called 'Little Mengchang', 'First Childe in Yan Jing', and is the first successor cultivated by the Zhao Family. He is worthy of our Muqing."
Shen Moru shook his head slightly and said firmly, "I don't care about Zhao Zilong. If that thing was really done by Zhao Tianya, he was not the master of the Zhao Family 20 years ago. With his ability at that time, he could not influence the top management of the Military Headquarters at all. The Zhao Family must be an accomplice to such a big scheme. I will never agree to marry the Zhao Family even if I am expelled from the Shen Family."
"Alas, it's too early to say these things. Let's wait and see. Zhao Zilong …"
Xiao Baiyu wanted to say something but stopped on second thought. If he did not know about the marriage between the Shen Family and the Zhao Family, he could treat it as usual. But now, he felt that he had to say it.
"What's wrong with Zhao Zilong?" Shen Moru said firmly, but when it came to Zhao Zilong, his prospective son-in-law, he was still very hesitant.
He admired the young man who was handsome, gentle, elegant, well-behaved, charismatic, and had no scandals. It was as if he had gathered all the good qualities of a man and was like a god's favored son.
He was actually very satisfied that such an excellent young man could become his son-in-law, which was the reason why he had never opposed the marriage with the Zhao Family.
"Zhao Zilong joined Dragon Soul half a year ago and performed very well. He is also ready to compete for the title of Dragon Teeth."
Xiao Baiyu's tone was slightly worried. He did not have any good impression of the Zhao Family.
But Zhao Zilong was really a special case. His innate affinity made him full of extraordinary charm. No matter who was in contact with him for a few days, they could be subdued by him.
In just half a year, he successfully subdued the arrogant soldiers of Dragon Soul and became the leader of the new generation. He was also the most powerful contender for the title of Dragon Teeth.
The title of Dragon Triangle was the spiritual pillar and soul of Dragon Soul Special Combat Team. Although Xiao Baiyu was still in charge of Dragon Soul, he had now taken the initiative to give up the title of Dragon Horn.
The new title of Dragon Triangle needed to win in the Army Competition, obtain the admission ticket to participate in the International Special Forces Competition, and win the first place in the International Special Forces Competition to be qualified to compete.
The title of Dragon Teeth had been vacant for more than 20 years. It was the most special title in Dragon Triangle and the most difficult one to obtain.
This title had almost harsh standards for strength, tactical strategy, speed, agility, wisdom, reaction speed, blasting, sniping, charging, close combat, danger intuition, attack power and so on.
After all, Dragon Teeth was different from Dragon Scales which were good at defense and Dragon Horns which were good at strategy. It was the sharpest knife of Dragon Soul and also the strongest fighting power of Dragon Soul. It was an invincible symbolic title.
Ten years ago, Kazekage was the warrior with the highest chance of obtaining the title of "Dragon Fang." Unfortunately, he was still lacking in terms of attack power and missed the opportunity. That was why he was so disheartened that he retired and became Dragon Scale's personal guard.
Xiao Baiyu was worried about this. Zhao Zilong not only had amazing affinity and cohesion, but also the intensity of his daily training was extremely close to the standard of becoming the new "Dragon Teeth".
If it was someone else, Xiao Baiyu would be very happy. After all, it was a good thing for new people to carry forward Dragon Soul and have successors.
However, Zhao Zilong was a member of the Zhao Family and was the biggest suspect of framing the former Dragon Teeth, which made him think more.
Was this a premeditated attempt by the Zhao Family to seize the control of Dragon Soul? Or Zhao Zilong simply wanted to challenge himself?
What kind of person was Shen Moru? How could he not understand the meaning of Xiao Baiyu's words? He sighed with flagging interest and said, "There are some things that we can do with a clear conscience. Besides, there is no need to involve the younger generation in the grievances of the older generation."
Xiao Baiyu was silent for a moment and sighed, "That's it!"
After hanging up the phone, Xiao Baiyu could not calm down for a long time. In his heart, he actually hoped that Shen Moru could unite with him against the enemy and find a way to prevent the expansion of the Zhao Family's power.
After all, the incident that happened that year made the Zhao Family lose face, and they had already reached the point of being irreconcilable with Dragon Teeth.
As the brothers of Dragon Teeth, they should unconditionally support Dragon Teeth, but as the children of a big family, they had to consider the interests of the family.
The relationship between the big families was intricate and complicated. No one was willing to see the situation where one family dominated.
The Zhao Family was ambitious, and Zhao Tianya, the head of the family, was a very capable person. He maneuvered all the small and medium-sized families to share the benefits with them and jointly resisted other big families.
Many families, driven by interests, had boarded the warship of the Zhao Family, which made the power of the Zhao Family expand wildly, and it had the momentum of becoming the first family in Yan Jing.
They had made great achievements in the political and business circles. If they extended their hands to the military circle, they would completely make up for the only shortcoming of the Zhao Family. At that time, the Zhao Family would completely dominate all the big families and become the head of the big families. They would also have the absolute right to speak for the integration and distribution of resources, which was definitely not a good thing for other big families.
Back then, Shen Moru made a big mistake on impulse and was almost sent to the military court. It was only under the Shen family's full efforts that he ended up being transferred from the Dragon Soul. After being depressed for a few years, he made a comeback. After making a lot of contributions, his days were slightly better these few years.
Now he had obviously lost his drive and sharpness, and it was clear that he did not want to meddle in other people's business.
Of course, this must have something to do with Zhao Zilong's innate affinity and his identity as Shen Moru's future son-in-law.
This made Xiao Baiyu understand him, but also have a kind of desolate feeling of fighting alone.
Standing in front of the window of the command room with his hands clasped behind his back, looking at the gentle smile on Zhao Zilong's face, who was surrounded like stars around the moon in the training ground, Xiao Baiyu felt disgusted as if he had eaten a fly.
He pulled the curtains angrily, frowned, lit a cigarette and took a puff. In the rising smoke, he swore to vent his anger, "F * ck!"
Zhao Zilong, who was enjoying the flattery of the Dragon Soul Warriors, seemed to feel something and looked at the window with the curtains drawn, with a meaningful smile at the corner of his mouth.
There was another person who was in the same bad mood as Xiao Baiyu. That was Ye Zhiqiu, the young captain who told the history of Dragon Soul to the Dragon Soul Warriors in Ninghai.
Ye Zhiqiu and Xiao Chunan used to be the leading figures of the younger generation of Dragon Soul. After Xiao Chunan disappeared, Ye Zhiqiu outshone others and became the focus of attention. He was the most outstanding young man.
But since Zhao Zilong came out of nowhere half a year ago, in less than three months, most of Ye Zhiqiu's loyal supporters betrayed him and began to revolve around Zhao Zilong.
Zhao Zilong was generous and his smile was very amiable. When he spoke, he could always go straight to the softest part of people's hearts.
He showed great concern for the soldiers who were sick or had family difficulties, which made people feel like bathing in the spring breeze. They unconsciously had a good impression of him and thus had a sense of trust and worship.
Although Ye Zhiqiu felt that he was very hypocritical and was playing to the gallery to buy people's hearts, he had to admit that he was indeed a very charming and resourceful person.
What made Ye Zhiqiu most depressed was that this hypocritical guy not only had a bewitching charm, but also showed his superhuman talent in military training.
Obviously, he was a returnee who came back from studying in the United States, but he seemed to be a born soldier. He achieved excellent results in military training subjects such as shooting, mobile sniping, blasting, driving, reconnaissance, weight-bearing cross-country running, battlefield rescue, fighting, military topography, computer chess deduction, etc. He was not inferior to him, the young soldier king, and even showed signs of surpassing him in some subjects.
After joining Dragon Soul for so many years, he was suppressed by a recruit in half a year, which made the proud Ye Zhiqiu feel very hurt and frustrated.
He could see that the chief didn't like Zhao Zilong very much. As a direct descendant cultivated by Xiao Baiyu, he didn't want to let Xiao Baiyu down.
He could only turn grief into motivation and crazily carry out overload training, in order to break through himself in the limit, show his skills in the big competition, and suppress Zhao Zilong's arrogance.
Zhao Zilong talked with the soldiers cordially, but he always paid attention to Ye Zhiqiu, who was training hard, out of the corner of his eyes. For his biggest competitor at present, there was a trace of imperceptible contempt in his eyes.
From childhood to adulthood, he had always been a well-deserved top student. From primary school to studying in the United States, he had always been a well-deserved top student. At the age of 23, he got a master's degree and returned from studying abroad, and then he made a name for himself in the business world.
