Chapter 2 Skyrocketing to 9 miles!

Chapter 2 Soaring up to ninety thousand miles!
Around Jinyu Island is a large spiritual field planted with golden feather grass, which looks like light feathers, swaying gracefully in the sea breeze.

Inside the spiritual field is where tens of thousands of members of the Chen family's side branches and some affiliated personnel live.

Going deeper into the island, one would see the residences of the main branch of the Chen family, which were much more luxurious than those of the side branches.

And in the very center is the master's residence, covering an area of ​​one thousand acres, with pavilions, towers, rockery gardens and everything else you need.

At this moment, at the main entrance of the master's mansion.

After Chen Zheng asked his servant to tell him that he was looking for Chen Fu, he stood there quietly waiting.

Chen Fu is the youngest son of the family head Chen Xingye, and is about the same age as Chen Zheng.

When Chen Zheng was learning martial arts at the Martial Arts Academy, he came into contact with Chen Fuduo, and the two were childhood playmates.

In fact, as an "adult", Chen Zheng does not need a child as a playmate.

It’s just that at that time he lacked the resources for cultivation, while Chen Fu was playful and “extremely rich”.

So Chen Zheng made a few gadgets from his previous life and told some classic quotes from his previous life, which made Chen Fu dizzy and confused, and he exchanged more than 20 Qi and Blood Pills from the other party.

Chen Fu also liked to follow Chen Zheng, calling him "Brother Zheng" all the time and asking him some strange questions.

For the sake of the Qi and Blood Pill, Chen Zheng patiently answered Chen Fu's questions.

Gradually, Chen Zheng was infected by the innocence of this little fat boy, and he felt more sincere in his heart.

But as Chen Fu grew up, their contact gradually decreased.

Chen Fu is one of the young masters of the family, and Chen Zheng is just a child of a side branch. As time goes by, the gap in status becomes increasingly apparent, and naturally they can no longer play together.

"The Third Young Master invites you."

The doorman turned around and brought an old man with him.

Chen Zheng followed the old man into the mansion, and soon they arrived in front of a courtyard gate.

As if footsteps were heard, the gate of the courtyard opened from the inside, and a fat man dressed in gorgeous clothes and with a somewhat childish face stood on the threshold.

This person is Chen Fu.

"Brother Zheng." Chen Fu ran out of the yard quickly, the fat on his body trembling slightly.

"Third Young Master, I'm sorry to bother you." Chen Zheng bowed with a smile.

"Brother Zheng, please don't be so formal. Just call me by my name like you did in the past."

Chen Fu pretended to be displeased, pulled Chen Zheng's arm and walked to the courtyard: "I have already ordered to prepare wine and food, we two brothers must have a good chat."

"it is good."

Seeing that Chen Fu was still as enthusiastic as before, Chen Zheng felt more confident and walked into the yard with Chen Fu and headed towards the living room.

He came to the patriarch's mansion to find Chen Fu this time in order to obtain the blood of the monsters needed to cultivate the true form of Hades.

As for whether the matter would be successful, he couldn't say for sure. Just because they had a good relationship back then, it didn't mean it was still the same now.

After all, people grow up.

Chen Zheng was also mentally prepared to be rejected by Chen Fu and to find other solutions.

In the living room, both parties sat down as host and guest.

Chen Fu personally made tea for Chen Zheng and said with emotion: "Brother Zheng, come to think of it, we haven't seen each other for more than two years, right?"

"Yeah." Chen Zheng's eyes also revealed emotion.

"Time flies. Looking back, we were brothers..."

Chen Fu talked about some interesting things that happened between them in the past, which gradually dispelled the slight sense of strangeness between them.

Chen Zheng smiled, sometimes nodded, sometimes shook his head.

During this time, the old man who had brought Chen Zheng here earlier brought up wine and food with a group of maids.

After three rounds of drinks, Chen Zheng saw that the atmosphere was about right, so he prepared to mention the matter of the monster's blood.

Chen Fu spoke first: "Brother Zheng, do you know how I have been through these past two years?"

"I can't breathe."

"Some people always secretly say that I am idle all day long, that I am just a playboy who only knows how to eat and wait for death, and that I am not worthy of the status of the Third Young Master..."

"My two brothers are no longer as close to me as before. Instead, they are becoming more and more distant from me and even hate me..."

"My father also looked down on me and didn't let me contribute to the family..."

Chen Fu seemed to be drunk, with a red face and thick neck, and he confided his distress and grievances to Chen Zheng.

Chen Zheng sighed in his heart: "The main vein of the Chen family is undercurrent."

It is not difficult to hear from Chen Fu's words that the battle for the position of the next generation head of the Chen family has already begun.

The head of the family, Chen Xingye, has three sons.

The eldest son, Chen Lie, has a calm temperament and outstanding talent in martial arts. He has cultivated his physical body to the ninth level when he was only in his early twenties, and his martial arts skills are unrivaled among his peers.

Chen Xingye also values ​​this eldest son, and two years ago he gave Chen Lie the responsibility of teaching martial arts to the younger generations of the clan. Chen Lie is like a mentor to the younger generations, and when the younger generations grow up, their power cannot be ignored, so most clan members think that Chen Lie is the most powerful candidate for the next head of the clan.

The second son, Chen Mo, is not much less talented in martial arts than the eldest son. Also two years ago, Chen Xingye handed over the family spiritual field to Chen Mo for management, and there is a certain hope that he will inherit the position of head of the family in the future.

The youngest son, Chen Fuzhe, is very mediocre and has not yet been entrusted with any important tasks by Chen Xingye.

No one in the clan believed that Chen Xingye would pass the position of head of the family to Chen Fu in the future.

There is not the slightest possibility.

And people are most afraid of comparison.

Chen Fu himself is not ambitious, and with his two elder brothers who are more capable than him, his mediocrity will be magnified, and he will become the object of comparison and belittlement with others.

Even Chen Zheng had heard rumors about Chen Fu more than once, saying that he was a hopeless case.

Chen Zheng agreed with this.

As one of the young masters of the main branch of the Chen family, Chen Fu possesses resources dozens of times more than most of the side branches, yet he has only cultivated to the sixth level of his physical body.

Chen Zheng estimated that if he had as many resources as Chen Fu, he would have reached the ninth level of his physical body long ago, the same level as Chen Lie.

So if Chen Fu isn’t mud, then what is he?
Of course, as a friend, Chen Zheng is quite sympathetic to Chen Fu's situation.

He encouraged her, "As the saying goes, when a roc soars up with the wind, it can soar to 90,000 miles. I believe that sooner or later you will achieve something and be recognized by the clan."

"Brother Zheng, what did you just say?" Chen Fu suddenly grabbed Chen Zheng's arm.

"I said I believe in you..."

"It's not this sentence, it's the one before, what is Dapeng saying?"

"When the great roc soars up with the wind, it can reach up to 90,000 miles." Chen Zheng repeated patiently.

"Well, what a great day! Isn't this exactly describing me?" Chen Fu clapped his hands in admiration, his two little eyes seemed to be sparkling.

"You?" Chen Zheng looked surprised.

His original intention of asking for a favor was to curry favor with Chen Fu so that he could ask for the monster's blood later.

Chen Fu fell for this trick back then.

I didn’t expect that Chen Fu would really put himself into it.

"it is me!"

Chen Fu stood up, shaking off his previous dejected look: "Brother Zheng, you don't know, not long ago my father had some insights and announced that he would go into seclusion. But before he went into seclusion, my father had already said that the family's merchant ship that transports the golden feather grass to Banyuefang City would be handed over to me to manage!"

A hint of surprise flashed across Chen Zheng's eyes.

It seems that Chen Xingye is not unwilling to give his youngest son any chance.

He patted Chen Fu on the shoulder and said with relief: "Congratulations, you have finally gained your uncle's respect. I am happy for you."

"Thank you, Brother Zheng."

Chen Fu looked at Chen Zheng with burning eyes: "It's just that I have to take charge of the merchant ship, but I'm not familiar with the people on the ship, and I lack trustworthy people to help me. Brother Zheng, are you interested in helping me?"

"help you?"

Chen Zheng narrowed his eyes and looked at Chen Fu without answering, his mind racing with thoughts.

Chen Fu is not as simple as he used to be.

He saw something in the other person's eyes that he had not seen before, that was the ambition to compete for the position of head of the family.

This matter deserves attention.

Once he agrees to help Chen Fu, he will inevitably stand on the opposite side of his two brothers and be caught in the vortex of the struggle for the position of the next head of the family.

The head of the family rules over tens of thousands of people in the Chen clan and dominates the island, which is equivalent to being a local emperor on the sea. In order to fight for this position, I'm afraid he would do anything.

If it were in the past, Chen Zheng would have rejected Chen Fu without saying a word.

Because the risk and reward are not equal.

Chen Fu is just a broken ship. If he follows the other party, he will be on a road of no return and will be doomed sooner or later.

But these days are different.

The parchment scroll was lost and then recovered, and Chen Zheng possessed the indestructible body of a true demon. Now he had a foundation for himself, and his state of mind and courage were different, and his choices would also change.

Moreover, Chen Fu is in power in the clan, so isn’t this an opportunity for him to cultivate the True Demon Indestructible Body?
After thinking about this, Chen Zheng had made up his mind, but he did not immediately agree to Chen Fu.

"Brother Zheng..."

Seeing that Chen Zheng remained silent for a long time, Chen Fu became nervous and gritted his teeth and said, "As long as Brother Zheng is willing to help me, I will agree to any conditions."

He is not as capable as Chen Lie and Chen Mo, who can easily gather many fans, so he values ​​Chen Zheng very much.

Chen Zheng smiled: "Okay."

Chen Fu also smiled, as if a huge mountain had been lifted off his shoulders.
