Chapter 340 The Changes in Chen Luo!
Han family.
Han Qi sat behind the desk in his study, with a stack of documents on the table.
These were materials about the Chen family and Fang Yu, collected by his subordinates.
After organizing everything, Han Qi learned several important pieces of information.
The enmity between Chen Luo and Fang Yu wasn’t limited to the White River Mountain incident.
There was another key event that he had just learned about.
That was that Chen Luo’s brother, Chen Yi, the notorious useless eldest son of the Chen family, had also clashed with Fang Yu.
Han Qi’s subordinates gathered intelligence that nearly two months ago, Fang Yu had beaten up Chen Yi at the Jinxiu Financial Center and forced him to sign a contract.
The content of this contract seemed to be related to Tiandou Rock on an island owned by the Chen family.
Han Qi wasn’t sure how significant the interests involved were.
He only knew that this was another point he could exploit.
“Tiandou Rock… Chen Yi getting beaten up…”
Han Qi cupped his chin, deep in thought.
A moment later, someone knocked on his door.
“Come in,” Han Qi said.
Han Tianyu pushed the door open and entered.
“Brother, Dad wants to see you about something, he asked you to go over.”
“Mm, I understand.” Han Qi stood up and walked out.
As he passed by Han Tianyu, Han Qi suddenly remembered something.
He turned around, patted Han Tianyu’s shoulder, and asked, “Tianyu, when you went to Frost Cold Palace to discuss cooperation with Palace Master Su, didn’t Fang Yu beat you up?”
“…Brother, why are you bringing this up?” Han Tianyu said with a bitter expression.
Just thinking about being violently beaten and Fang Yu’s true strength made him feel lingering fear.
“Why did Fang Yu beat you?” Han Qi’s eyes gleamed as he stared at Han Tianyu.
“How would I know?” Han Tianyu asked.
“No, you must have known why he beat you at the time! Think carefully!” Han Qi asked with a serious expression.
Seeing Han Qi so serious, Han Tianyu recalled the incident.
“Fang Yu… seems to know Palace Master Su, and they have a good relationship… The reason he beat me was because I said some things to Palace Master Su…” Han Tianyu said, his face turning red.
“He knows Su Lengyun from Frost Cold Palace! And they have a good relationship! You’re sure about this, right?” Han Qi said with excitement in his eyes.
“Yes, brother, why are you asking about all this?” Han Tianyu asked with a confused expression.
Han Qi didn’t answer, but instead paced back and forth in the hall.
The conflict between the Chen family and Fang Yu was a key point.
But from the current situation, the conflict between the two parties wasn’t intense enough.
Especially after Chen Nansheng witnessed Fang Yu’s strength, he would certainly be wary and wouldn’t dare to easily cause trouble for Fang Yu.
Therefore, to plan for the conflict between the Chen family and Fang Yu, he needed to start with Fang Yu!
If he could make the Chen family do something that would anger Fang Yu without them knowing…
Then even if the Chen family didn’t want to conflict with Fang Yu, it wouldn’t matter!
With Fang Yu’s personality, he would definitely actively cause trouble for the Chen family!
And the key point to intensify the conflict lay with Su Lengyun of Frost Cold Palace!
The Han family had long targeted Frost Cold Palace for annexation, but unfortunately, both times they sent Han Tianyu to negotiate, the result was failure.
Su Lengyun seemed very averse to having connections with martial arts families.
So, all he needed to do was make the Chen family want to annex Frost Cold Palace!
Frost Cold Palace, represented by Su Lengyun, would certainly resist, and the conflict between the two parties would escalate.
At that time, Han Qi would only need to add fuel to the fire as needed…
If anything happened to Su Lengyun, Fang Yu would definitely seek revenge against the Chen family!
That’s the plan!
In Han Qi’s mind, the plan had already taken shape.
He turned around and said, “Tianyu, help me spread some information…”
…
Huaibei, Chen family.
“Luo has been out training for such a long time without any news, could something have happened?” Chen Luo’s mother, Lu Wanju, said anxiously from the sofa in the hall.
“Don’t worry, with Luo’s strength, it’s impossible for anything to happen,” Chen Nansheng comforted from the side.
The Chen family patriarch sat in a recliner, his expression composed.
He understood Chen Luo better than his parents did.
How could a reincarnated powerful expert run into trouble during training?
Besides these three people, there were more than twenty core members of the Chen family standing before them.
“Is everyone here?” Chen Nansheng stood up, looking at the core members of the Chen family in front of him.
“Recently, the martial arts world in Huaibei seems peaceful on the surface, but there are undercurrents beneath. After the Zheng family fell, many benefits need to be redistributed,” Chen Nansheng said slowly with his hands behind his back. “For our Chen family, this is an excellent opportunity.”
“Family Head, in fact, our Chen family is now the number one martial arts family. Who in Huaibei dares to question this?” someone said.
Hearing this, Chen Nansheng smiled and shook his head, saying, “We can’t take things for granted. For our Chen family to reach the top, we still need real strength. Only then will people acknowledge us.”
“Family Head, we can seize all the benefits previously held by the Zheng family!” someone suggested.
“That’s certain, but we’re not without competitors. Besides the Han family, there are many other families wanting to rise up. No one wants to give up this excellent opportunity,” Chen Nansheng said solemnly. “That’s why I’m telling you not to take things for granted.”
“Alright, now I want to hear your thoughts,” Chen Nansheng said, sitting back down on the sofa.
“Family Head, I believe the most important thing now is to bring those martial arts sects under the Zheng family into our fold. As long as we have enough affiliated sects, our influence will continue to expand,” someone immediately spoke up.
“Mm, that’s what I was thinking too. Good,” Chen Nansheng nodded.
“There’s another point, which is to bring those martial arts sects that are currently still independent and haven’t joined any family into our fold. This will become our advantage,” the person continued.
“Oh? There are still independent sects?” Chen Nansheng said with some surprise.
“Yes, but not many, only three sects remain. They are the Divine Wind Gate, True Fire Sect, and Frost Cold Palace,” the person said. “Among them, I suggest targeting Frost Cold Palace first. I’ve specifically researched this sect, and it’s all female disciples with relatively weak overall strength, making it easier to recruit. If they don’t agree, we can forcibly merge them using our strength.”
“Frost Cold Palace…” Chen Nansheng frowned slightly, then nodded and said, “Then do as you suggest, resolve the Frost Cold Palace issue as soon as possible! Then deal with Divine Wind Gate and True Fire Sect!”
Just as the Chen family core meeting was heating up, footsteps were heard.
A handsome man dressed in black fitted clothes walked into the hall.
Everyone looked at him.
“Luo!” Lu Wanju’s face lit up with joy, and she quickly walked forward.
“Young Master Chen Luo.” Everyone present bowed to Chen Luo.
Chen Luo smiled slightly and nodded.
“How was your harvest?” The Chen family patriarch, who had been gently rocking in his recliner, sat up straight and asked.
“Very smooth,” Chen Luo answered.
“That’s good,” the Chen patriarch chuckled.
“Having a meeting?” Chen Luo asked, seeing so many Chen family members present.
“Yes… By the way, you just got back, so you probably don’t know what’s happened in Huaibei these past few days. Let me tell you,” Chen Nansheng stepped forward and said.
Then, Chen Nansheng told Chen Luo about how Fang Yu single-handedly swept through the Zheng family.
After listening, Chen Luo’s expression turned cold.
Fang Yu… indeed a troublemaker.
Even those at the Yuan Ying stage were no match for him?
Interesting.
“Luo, I saw Fang Yu’s strength with my own eyes, it’s truly terrifying… so I think our Chen family should avoid provoking him for now. That Tiandou Rock… it’s given away, so be it. I see that this person doesn’t have much ambition and won’t actively provoke our Chen family…” Chen Nansheng said.
“You think I’m not his match?” Chen Luo asked with a cold smile at the corner of his mouth.
Meeting his son’s cold gaze, Chen Nansheng’s heart trembled violently, and he momentarily felt suffocated.
“I, I didn’t mean that, just…”
“This person stole my opportunity for transformation and affected my destiny. If I don’t kill him, my path of cultivation will face twists and turns.”
“However, I won’t move against him for now.”
“Currently, there are more important matters waiting for me to handle. After I deal with these few things, I will definitely have a battle with Fang Yu… At that time, I will show you my true strength.”
