After the three brothers of the southwest Chen family cheated Hai Dongqing and Tian Jue to delay their escape back to the Chen family, they informed their elders that the He Xi village had colluded with the Devil Dao. The next day, when the chickens were crowing, the Chen family surrounded the Shen family tavern in the village of He Xi.

But the Shen family left that same night, asking the neighbors who knew nothing about it, the Chen family was furious, framing the Shen family's neighbors for colluding with the Devil Dao, and they all went back to the Chen family to interrogate them.

This matter should have been handled by the law enforcement sect, but since this matter involved the descendants of the Chen family, it wasn't that easy to deal with. Besides, the Chen family's backer wasn't someone a law enforcement sect could manage.

As for the other people who knew about this, no one dared to tell them that the Chen family was the one who instigated this incident. How could the commoners afford to provoke the Chen family?

At that moment, the people in Hexi Village were terrified, afraid that the Chen family would capture them and ask about the whereabouts of the Shen family, as well as the whereabouts of the mysterious Devil Dao.

They didn't know that the Chen family had done this to cover up the crimes of their children, and also to urge the ignorant commoners in their eyes.

The five Devil Dao had never thought that the Chen family would be so crazy, and even more so, that they would dare to act against the common people. If they knew that the Chen Family had a woman married to the Second Elder of the Southern Sword Sect, then they would know how the Chen Family could be so rampant.

As for the matter of Tian Jue and Hai Dongqing saving the Chen brothers, the three brothers of the Chen family returning home did not mention anything about it.

Two months later, Hai Dongqing's injuries were also almost healed. He Fa prepared some money for them and gave 1000 taels of silver to Hai Dongqing.

This Qing Hai Yao family was indeed a wealthy family. Hai Dongqing only found out later that there were two kinds of aristocratic families.

In the Central Plains, there were no aristocratic families but only sects. There were extremely few sects, and they didn't even teach martial arts to outsiders. At that time, the eastern barbarians, western barbarians, and southern tribes were not the only ones surrounding the Central Plains. Their territories were small, and as they expanded, they eventually pointed to the Central Plains.

The Central Plains had gone through many fierce battles. The people from the sect couldn't handle them anymore, so they began to recruit those who didn't know martial arts to participate. They were trained and rewarded.

Therefore, second-rate sects and families filled the Central Plains like flowers blooming in a mountain. The training provided by the sects was much more conservative. In order to preserve their lives on the battlefield, they began to create their own martial arts.

Second-rate sects and aristocratic families all created their own martial arts, while third-rate sects only retained a few modifications from that time's training.

There was also another unique aristocratic family. They were able to gain the identity of an aristocratic family through the cost of supporting the war. Their advantage was that they could obtain the identity of an aristocratic family even without going to the battlefield.

The Yao family was one, but the Yao family was special. Not only did they support money, they even paid for their own troops to go to war. That was why the Yao family had their own martial arts skills.

During the time that Hai Dongqing was recuperating, Yao Wu had come quite a few times to take care of her. She had also come quite often to scam this guy, and Lil 'Ye had caused a lot of trouble every day.

Although Yaowu was often scammed by Hai Dongqing, he still felt reluctant to part when he saw that Hai Dongqing was about to leave. Meanwhile, Xiao Yezi tugged on Tian Jue's and Hai Dongqing's sleeves and started crying.

"Senior brothers, you must come back quickly to accompany Lil 'Ye, wuwu …"

The gyrfalcon felt his head hurt. How was this guy letting anyone accompany him? He was afraid that the two of them would leave and bully others. Tian Jue lovingly patted Lil 'Ye's head, while Lil' Ye started to cry even louder.

"Alright!" "What is it like?" Martial Uncle Ye said harshly. Hearing that, Lil 'Ye quickly stopped.

Tian Jue and Hai Dongqing embarrassedly smiled at Martial Uncle Ye, who glared at them.

"Quickly scram. You must remember, if you can't finish what the sect head arranged, don't come back." Yaogu waved to the two of them, then drove them away.

"Master, Martial Uncle, Junior Martial Brother, take care of yourselves. Farewell!" The two of them clasped their fists and bowed, then turned and left.

"Take care, Senior Brother!" Yaowu clasped his fists, bowed at 90 degrees, and said with a loud voice.

"Take care, Senior Brother!" When the rest saw this, they all cupped their fists and bowed as well. Surprisingly, none of them had raised their heads high enough.

In that instant, the two of them felt their noses turn sour. However, they could not turn back. This was the first time they had been unable to say for sure.

"Guan Hai City is home, outside the city is the martial arts world, the martial arts world is dangerous, disciple be careful!" He Fa said in a low voice. Although his voice was low, it was no lower than the roar of Yao Wu.

"This disciple will remember Master's teachings!" The two of them mounted the horses they had prepared and replied to He Fai without bowing. The crowd watched as their figures gradually disappeared into the distance. It wasn't until then did the Guanhai Sect return to normal.

As the two walked, they asked if they had any good weapons, and the answer they got was that the swords on their bodies were the best they had ever seen, and some people were even people from other sects or aristocratic families. Although the two were speechless, they had never given up asking.

Seeing that they were getting closer and closer to the Chen Clan's territory, Hai Dongqing and Tian Jue did not think to make the three brothers of the Chen Clan show respect to them. The two of them were quite disgusted with the three brothers, so they thought that they should pass by them and did not wish to interact too much with them. However, if they saw them, Hai Dongqing would not mind beating them up.

Tian Jue felt that it would be great if he taught them a lesson. If he really wanted to kill the Chen family's three men, the Chen family would have to fight to the death with the Guan Hai Sect.

"Never mind, never mind. Even if you meet someone, you might not be able to meet them. Don't even think about it!" The gyrfalcon paled, who was still seriously analyzing and killing the three people, Tian Jue said.

"Who said it first?" Tian Jue gritted his teeth as he looked at Hai Dongqing. Hai Dongqing released the reins and spread out his hands as if it was none of his business.

Tian Jue snorted coldly and ignored Hai Dongqing, who looked around. When they saw a tavern, two floors, the two of them arranged the horses and sat down.

"Waiter, bring your best up here and a pot of tea." The gyrfalcon said matter-of-factly.

"Guest, please wait a moment. We'll be there shortly!" The waiter shouted and led the two into a private dining room. This surprised the two of them. How could there be such treatment in the suburbs?

Not long after, a plate of fish, a plate of beef, a chicken, and some other dishes appeared. Unexpectedly, the table was full, but the dishes were still unceasingly served.

"Esteemed guests have come to the right place. Although my tavern is in the wilderness outside of the city, it's well-known that there are ten miles between us. Many nobles and dignitaries are here to dine." The waiter put the rag on his shoulder and revealed a simple and honest smile. The two looked at him and really wanted to give him a punch.

"No, second brother. Look at me, I'm so skinny. How can I eat these dishes?" The corner of Tian Jue's mouth twitched as he asked.

"Customer, you are the best one that can come to our house. Don't look at our tavern or small. It has 108 signboards and 1800 dishes. Do you see them?" As the waiter said this, he ran out of the tavern and pointed towards the signboard on the door. The signboard had the words "Number One Gourmet of the Southwest" written on it. The two looked carefully at the small building that connected the five buildings and two floors behind their tavern.

"This plaque was given to you by the previous king. This can't fool you!" The waiter had an innocent look. When Hai Dongqing and Tian Jue thought back to how this fellow had said "little" before, the two of them felt like they had been cheated.

The two of them went to another building and found that it was full except for the tavern that was used to entertain travelers. This tavern had a clear division of labor, but when they saw the dishes on several tables, they couldn't be happy.

"Second brother, how much are these dishes?" Tian Jue cautiously asked.

"These tables are all signboards, so we don't dare to make an offer without our conscience. It's not expensive, that's all." The waiter stretched out two fingers.

"Two taels?" Hai Dongqing asked in surprise. After all, they already said that it was a conscience merchant.

"Two taels?" Customer, please do not joke. It's two hundred silver. " The waiter said with a smile.

Hearing this astonishing figure, he remembered that the last time he went out, he had only spent a total of twenty taels of silver (counting the ones for the Thousand Medicinal Sect, who could be considered as buying horses), but this meal had cost him two hundred taels of silver.

Hai Dongqing held onto the hilt of her sword, her eyes were wide open, and her mouth was slightly open.

Seeing this, the waiter was frightened. His tavern was very famous, but these two people were obviously disciples of the sect. It wasn't something he could afford to offend.

"Customer, please do not be agitated. You have lost your identity. How about we take a bit less and treat you two as filial people?" The waiter said carefully.

"No need, I won't miss any of you!" The waiter took out the banknotes and placed them on the table. He walked away quickly, afraid that the gyrfalcon and Tian Jue would go back on their word. He did not have the power to not accept this debt.

Usually, their meals were calculated using copper coins. One or two silver coins could make a storekeeper unable to keep his mouth shut. One must know that the houses in your Golden Crow Sect's city were only worth a few dozen silver coins.

The gyrfalcon wasn't a very respectable person either, but he had ordered his own dishes. He didn't care about the other signboard or the price of the dishes, so he couldn't blame anyone but himself.

When the gyrfalcon saw that the waiter had left, he picked up the chopsticks and started to eat. It wasn't that he was hungry, nor was it that it was delicious.

As they ate, the two of them were thinking that they could not finish either, so they called for the others to come and eat. As they looked at the others, they saw that they were all signature dishes.

The actions of the two caused a table of people to be filled with dissatisfaction. One of them said, "Waiter, bring the best dishes and wine. I'll invite everyone to a banquet!"

Hai Dongqing and Tian Jue cast a sidelong glance at him. Wasn't that the one called Fourth Brother by the three brothers of the Chen family? This person also looked at Hai Dongqing and Tian Jue. He gave them a fierce glare, clearly not remembering the two of them.

The gyrfalcon stepped forward and laughed, "Heh, isn't this the Chen family's fourth young master? Don't think that we'll never meet each other again. This is fate! "

"Hmm? "Who are you?" Chen Si Xu squinted his eyes and asked, apparently, he couldn't remember who this person was. In fact, he didn't pay much attention to it, mainly to show his noble identity and arrogance.

"Fourth Young Master is really forgetful." Although the gyrfalcon had a smile on his face, he was disgusted by the man. He didn't continue to talk to him and decided to teach him a lesson when he was out of the tavern.

Seeing that the situation had calmed down, everyone continued to eat. Many people stood up and toasted to thank the fourth young master of the Chen Clan. Those who had eaten Hai Dongqing's and Tian Jue's food did not dare to stand up and thank the two of them. After all, everyone knew that these two were the main reason for their anger and no one dared to offend Chen Si.

Tian Jue and Hai Dongqing did not need anyone to thank them. The two continued to eat their food and seeing that they could not take it anymore, Hai Dongqing walked to the door and picked up a stool to sit down. He crossed his arms and leaned against the wall while Tian Jue went to the second floor to meditate.

As time passed, the five members of the Chen Clan slowly left the inn. The five members of the Chen Clan helped as they prepared to leave, seeing that the sky was about to darken.

It was still the waiter who ran over to the five and said with a slightly panicked expression, "Fourth Young Master Chen, Qian … "Money …"

"You want to ask laozi for money?" Chen Si kicked the waiter away, causing the waiter to cough out blood as he struggled to get up.

A person next to Chen Si was about to step forward and beat up the waiter when the gyrfalcon suddenly opened his eyes. He leapt into the air and kicked the chair in the direction of the waiter.

Seeing the situation, Chen Si quickly used his martial arts to force the alcohol out of his mouth. After a short while, Hai Dongqing knocked down two more people. By then, Chen Si had also woken up seventy to eighty percent.

"Who are you? This is the Chen Clan's territory, how dare you come here to seek death? " After Chen Si had finished speaking, he raised his palm towards Hai Dongqing, but Hai Dongqing did not pull out his sword, and just raised his palm to block as well.

As the two palms collided, Chen Si was forced two steps back. Never would he have thought that this brat who looked a few years younger than him was so formidable.

At this moment, the two Chen family members had also awakened. Tian Jue appeared behind them and kicked one of them to the left. The one on the right turned around and Tian Jue punched him once again on the nose.

"In this Central Plains, the disciples of the sects have the right to punish evil!" Tian Jue retracted his fist and stared at Chen Si.

"Am I evil? Haha, I am evil! " Chen Si suddenly went crazy, but Hai Dongqing who was prepared to take action did not want to do so anymore.

"The ancient foreign powers invaded, and our Chen family joined the battle. We suffered heavy casualties. After more than a thousand years of rest, he had also participated in the battle to expel the eastern barbarians and obstruct a large number of Western barbarians' armies! to protect every inch of the Central Plains, and these people... " Chen Si pointed at the waiter and the other people hiding behind the cover and said,

"These people are running everywhere, and there are even people who are trying to provide clues and materials for the enemies to live. The enemies are running away and running out to celebrate, so what will happen if I eat a meal without paying them?

If it wasn't for our sect's aristocratic families, they would still be living under the oppression of the bandits and would be as alive as animals raised by foreign countries. The more Chen Si spoke, the more excited he became. He picked up the chair and threw it at Hai Dongqing.

No one noticed that there were three men and a woman on the second floor who were looking at the scene with interest. The girl seemed very interested in the gyrfalcon.
