During the period when Chen Bahuang and Jiangcheng escorted the little girl home, Qingnan had already returned to the Zhou family with Zhoulei County and met Mr. Zhou.

In the main hall of the Zhou family, Mr. Zhou looked at Zhou Lei below with a slightly gloomy expression.

"How could I give birth to a waste like you who can't do anything well, and it will only cause trouble for the family!"

After hearing his father's lesson, Zhou Lei lowered his head in fear.

In the eyes of outsiders, Zhou Lei was born in the Zhou family of three major families and had endless wealth and glory. Even if he did nothing in his life, he would have no worries about food and clothing.

But for Zhou Lei, this home has never felt like a home.

Because he had two shrewd and capable brothers in such a large family, Zhou Lei has never been valued in the family, and even as a family descendant, he did not attend the family meeting.

"I'm sorry, my father, I didn't expect that I would cause such a big trouble today." Zhou Lei knelt on the ground and responded tremblingly.

After hearing this explanation, Mr. Zhou didn't even want to pay attention to Zhou Lei. His indifferent behavior seemed to be like Zhou Lei was not his biological child.

After sighing, Mr. Zhou did not say anything more to his biological son, but instead focused his attention on Qingnan.

"Have you fought with the mysterious master who injured Zhao He?" Mr. Zhou asked.

"Not fighting." Qingnan responded solemnly, "Although he has never fought with that man, he is definitely the biggest obstacle to winning the championship in this competition."

Hearing these words, the expression on Mr. Zhou's face became more and more serious: "Can you be confident to defeat him?"

When Qingnan heard this question, he hesitated for a while, and then his eyes gradually became firmer: "Reply to Mr. Zhou, yes!"

"That's good." After hearing this answer, the solemn expression on Mr. Zhou's face gradually relaxed, "I can only go to the city lord to let him change someone."

Hearing this comment, Qingnan frowned slightly and felt very upset.

As the top top masters that Qingpeng secretly raised, even Qingpeng rarely treats him so unreasonable: "Mr. Zhou, if I am not the opponent of that person, even if you go to the city lord again, it will be a waste of effort."

"That may not be."

Hearing Qingnan's words, Old Master Zhou's mouth raised slightly, and a sinister smile appeared. He knew that Qingpeng could not refuse the agreement between him and Qingpeng and the conditions he proposed.

Not to mention asking Qingpeng to send his subordinates to help him, even if Qingpenghua is asked, everyone will definitely do the same when they invite the top master Qingpeng from Daliang City first.

"Anyway, what you have to do is to represent Zhou Jia in this competition. The competition will begin tomorrow. You should have a good rest today. Don't let me down, and don't let me down."

After saying something lukewarmly, Mr. Zhou stood up and left with the help of his servants.

Meanwhile, on the other side.

Qingcheng Mountain’s martial arts competition is a grand day, so in order to make this martial arts competition more gimmick, the rings are personally directed and built by the city lord every year, and this year is no exception.

Originally, the ring had to be prepared in advance, and according to Qingpeng's requirements, the ring had been completed three days ago.

But tonight, Qingfeng, for some reason, overturned the ring with a large number of people and then re-modeled it.

And among the group of people Qingpeng brought this time, there were several mysterious old men who were proficient in formations.

A few hours later, the mysterious old men who were proficient in formations and prohibitions came to Qingpeng after doing some mysterious formations and prohibitions.

"Mr. City Lord, according to your request, the ring has been remodeled."

Hearing this, Qingpeng looked at the ring not far away, showed a sinister smile, and responded: "How much spiritual power can this ring bear at most?"

Hearing this question, the old man responded confidently: "Even if the masters of the Sixth Heaven release all their power, the formation under the arena can bear it."

"Very good." After receiving a satisfactory reply, Qingpeng's face became even more proud. He waved to the old man who set up the formation and said, "Go and receive the reward."

When the old man heard this, he bowed his hands and said greedily: "Thank you for the reward of the city lord."

Not long after, the old man who set up the formation left after receiving the reward, under Qingpeng's escort.

However, before the old man could leave, Qingpeng ordered to his confidant: "This matter cannot be spread. Please remind the old man and let him keep his mouth tighter."

After hearing Qingpeng's order, the man said seriously: "Subordinates understand."

However, just as this man was planning to chase the old man and support Qingpeng, he stopped him again, and his face said a lot: "Do you really understand what I mean?"

Hearing this, the man showed doubts and asked back, "Didn't this old man tell him that this matter cannot be spread?"

"Hahaha..." Hearing his subordinates' words, Qingpeng sneered repeatedly, "I'll ask you, who is the strictest person in this world?"

"This..." the subordinate didn't know how to respond for a while.

Seeing this, Qingpeng showed murderous intent on his face, pinched the neck of the hand, and said viciously: "The dead man's mouth is the strictest. Do you understand what I mean?"

"I understand below."

The man responded with difficulty when he was pinched to his throat.

Hearing this, Qingpeng let go of his hand: "Go, remember to do it cleanly, don't expose your feet."

Among the Jiang family.

After sending the little girl to her home, Chen Bahuang returned to the Jiang family with this.

However, as soon as the two entered the door, they were stopped by the butler.

"Two, the master summoned me. Please move to the study room to speak."

“Leading the way is.”

Chen Bahuang didn't have to think about it, but he knew that Mr. Zhou wanted to see him at this time because he had a conflict with Zhou Lei not long ago.

Soon, under the guidance of the butler, Chen Bahuang and he came to the study where Mr. Jiang was located.

As soon as he arrived at the study, he said to Chen Bahuang with a slightly solemn expression: "Mr. Chen, do you know that the person you injured is the third son of the Zhou family."

"I know." Chen Bahuang did not hide it and nodded directly to respond.

After hearing Chen Bahuang's righteous answer, he asked the old man a little angrily: "Little Friend Chen, do you know that you are representing the Jiang family in the competition? Once you break up with the Zhou family, is the Jiang family who will be responsible for the Zhou family's anger?"

Hearing this, Chen Bahuang asked back with neither humility nor arrogantly: "As the same three major families, are the Jiang family so afraid of the Zhou family?"

"This has nothing to do with fear or not." Old Master Jiang sighed and tried his best to calm down his emotions. "It's just that my Jiang family doesn't want to have a bad relationship with the Zhou family for no reason."

"Mr. Jiang is a bit naive." After hearing Mr. Jiang's words, Chen Bahuang raised his lips slightly and responded, "Mr. Jiang, do you know that for this competition, the Zhou family invited a master who was close to me?"

"Even I dare not even say it, I am 100% sure to defeat the Zhou family and invite that person."
