God of Defiance

The next morning, Chutian finished his breakfast, walked out of the room, and came to the courtyard.

After practicing all night, Chu Tian successfully refined another piece of spiritual poison.

Although he didn't sleep much last night, he was in high spirits and didn't show any signs of fatigue.

A quarter of an hour later, Chutian arrived at the Sewerage Bureau of Qianyanghou Mansion and began a busy day of work.

In the evening, just like yesterday, Chu Tian led a dozen carriages, pulling a massive amount of excrement newly produced by everyone in the Hou Mansion, and slowly drove out of the city.

As night fell, Chu Tian returned to the room and sat on the chair.

After a while, Mr. Bai, wearing a gray robe and a tired face, walked in from outside and saluted Chu Tian: "Third Prince, you asked me to come here late at night during the day. Is there something wrong?"

Chu Tian glanced at the other party casually and said with a smile: "Old Bai, how do I treat you on weekdays?"

"The Third Prince has a gentle temperament and a kind heart. No matter in the good times or now in trouble, he treats me like a family member. I am grateful."

Bai Lao said with great respect.

Although he said this, there was still a trace of panic in his eyes that was difficult to detect by ordinary people.

"Since I treat you like family, why did you secretly poison me and were ordered to monitor me at all times and report all my movements to others?"

Chu Tian slammed the table and stood up directly.

thump!

The moment Chu Tian roared, Bai Lao's knees softened and he knelt directly on the ground, his body trembling and crying bitterly.

"Third Prince, there is nothing I can do about it. If I don't do what they say, the lives of dozens of members of my family will be in danger. Please spare my life, Third Prince!"

Bai Lao cried and howled.

"Hmph! It's really you!"

Chu Tian's face turned pale and he snorted secretly.

In the entire Hou family, the person he trusted the most was Mr. Bai. If Mr. Bai was secretly bribed by Chu Xi and others, then it would be easy to poison him.

As for monitoring and reporting, it is also a natural thing.

"The old slave plotted to kill the third prince. The old slave deserves to die. I just ask the third prince not to tell the Marquis about this matter. The old slave will die now to apologize!"

Bai Lao kowtowed a few times, then suddenly pulled out a dagger from his arms and stabbed himself hard in the heart.

However, before the dagger could pierce his heart, he was kicked away.

Bai Lao immediately raised his head and looked at Chu Tian who slowly retracted his right foot with a puzzled face.

The reason why he decisively confessed and committed suicide just now was because he was afraid that Chu Tian would report the poisoning to Qian Yanghou.

In that case, not only would he die, but his family would also be sent to prison and endure the harshest punishment.

Although Chu Tian has lost his glory and is extremely depressed, at least on the surface, he is still the third son of Qianyang Hou Mansion!

Poisoning the prince's son is a serious crime and will bring disaster to the nine clans.

"Get up, you were just forced to do something wrong. The fault is not yours, but the people behind the scenes."

Chu Tian said.

Bai Lao was immediately overjoyed, and at the same time he felt intense shame in his heart.

Such a kind-hearted Third Prince, he was blinded by lard and secretly poisoned the other party. What a sin.

Seeing Mr. Bai stand up again, Chu Tian continued: "From now on, you will continue to secretly report my daily movements to those people, and don't let them have any doubts. Everything will continue as usual."

"Yes, I obey my orders!"

Although he didn't understand Chu Tian's thoughts, Bai Lao still bowed and exited the room.

"Haha, kid, you can keep your composure after being hurt so miserably."

After Mr. Bai left, a chuckle came out.

Chu Tian shook his head and sighed: "Now the enemy is strong and we are weak. If we try to scare the enemy, I will definitely die. Let them, mother and son, continue to think that I am a useless waste."

"Good boy, I am indeed right about you. Your calm nature is far beyond that of people of your age!"

Balao praised.

"Hmph! Keep this account in mind first, sooner or later you will have to settle it with them!"

Chu Tian snorted angrily.

Immediately, he sat cross-legged by the bed again and began to practice the "Five Elements Diamond Art".

Three days passed by in a hurry.

Early that morning, Chu Tian received a notice from the housekeeper of the Hou Mansion, asking him to dress neatly and go to the meeting hall of the Hou Mansion to attend the engagement ceremony of Chu Xi and Su Xishui.

Chu Tian changed into a clean white robe, carried the big silver bow on his back, and rushed to the meeting hall in a hurry.

When he walked into the meeting hall, he found that most people from both sides had already arrived, so he stood aside obediently.

On the main seat of the meeting hall, a middle-aged elegant man in rich clothes sat upright. Next to him was a lady in her forties in red palace clothes.

Due to proper maintenance, there are almost no wrinkles visible on this lady's charming face.

The elegant man is naturally the Qianyang Hou Chu Changqing, and the noble lady in palace clothes is the Hou Ye’s wife Liu!

When Mrs. Liu saw Chu Tian appearing, an imperceptible sneer appeared at the corner of her mouth, but she returned to normal in an instant.

As for Qianyang Hou Chu Changqing, when his youngest son walked in, he didn't even look at him!

Brothers Chu Xi and Chu Li stood together.

Chu Xi's eyes were always staring at the tall girl in a green skirt sitting on the opposite seat with a look of obsession on her face.

Chu Li took one look at the silver bow Chu Tian was carrying, and immediately became furious and clenched his fists tightly.

Feeling Chu Li's eyes that could almost kill people from a distance, Chu Tian smiled disdainfully and immediately looked at the girl in green dress sitting on the opposite seat.

"I haven't seen you for more than half a year. This little girl Xishui is really becoming more and more charming."

Chu Tian sighed softly.

The girl in the green dress opposite was none other than Su Xishui, who had spent almost every day with Chu Tian.

Although Su Xishui looks only fifteen or sixteen years old, she is dressed in a green dress that shows off her slender and tall figure. Her velvet-white neck is slightly raised, and she has an almost flawless angelic face. No matter where she goes, she will attract attention. Come to everyone's attention.

Su Xishui seemed to notice that Chu Xi and Chu Tian were looking at her at the same time. She smiled at them and then returned to normal.

Chu Xi immediately became excited.

As long as the engagement ceremony is completed today, it can basically be said that Su Xishui is hers. She will only hold a grand wedding soon to officially confirm it!

In comparison, Chu Tian was much calmer, smiling and nodding towards the other side.

The union between Chu Xi and Su Xishui was a foregone conclusion. Although there was a hint of pain deep in his heart, his heart felt calm now.

Next to Su Xishui sat a middle-aged man with a rough face.

The man was far from handsome, with sunken eye sockets, a high nose, and a faint aura that was not weak emanating from his body.

This person is Su Xishui’s father, Su Shilun, the head of the Su family!

In addition to these people in the meeting hall, there were also senior elders from the Chu and Su families, all sitting together.

"Haha, Xi Shui is already so beautiful at such a young age. Brother Su has really raised a good daughter!"

Chu Changqing smiled and praised.

He had a smile on his face and longing in his heart.

Su Xishui is not only beautiful, but also has outstanding cultivation talent. Now he has reached the seventh level of body training. Combined with his eldest son Chu Xi, he will have children in the future, which will definitely continue the century-old incense of Qianyang Hou Mansion. !

Hearing Chu Changqing's praise, Su Shilun shook his head helplessly: "Oh, the female eldest daughter is not allowed to stay. It is her blessing that Xishui can become a couple with the eldest prince, and it is also your family's blessing. Blessing!”

As the two most powerful families in Qianyang County, the marriage between the Chu family and the Su family will have a significant impact on the entire Qianyang County. It may even be impossible for the Marquis of Qianyang to take this opportunity to go one step further and become The feudal official!

"What Brother Su said is true. If we work together, we will both benefit, but if we fight, we will both be hurt. Xi'er and Xishui are truly a match made in heaven. As elders, we should naturally make it happen!"

Chu Changqing nodded and said.

Next, the senior members of the Chu and Su families present chatted casually, and most of the content was about some folk anecdotes that had happened recently in Qianyang County.

After a while.

"Alright, Brother Su, let's stop chatting.

Chu Changqing clapped his hands and smiled lightly.

Soon, three young disciples came on the stage, each holding a red wooden box in their hands. They walked slowly to the middle of the meeting hall and carefully opened the box in their hands.

"These three boxes are three gifts prepared by my Chu family. The first one is a hundred medium-grade spiritual stones, the second one is a bottle of red-horned elk's blood, and the third one is fifty spirit-gathering pills. !”

There was a hint of pride in Chu Changqing's words.

hiss!

As soon as the words fell, there was a gasp of cold air in the assembly hall.

One hundred middle-grade spiritual stones are equivalent to 10,000 low-grade spiritual stones, and the precious blood of the red-horned elk is an excellent help for ninth-level body-refining realm warriors to advance to the spiritual realm.

As for the last Spirit Gathering Pill, it is a precious pill that Spirit Yun Realm warriors practice daily, and its value is much higher than the previous two combined.

Qian Yanghou is really a generous person!

Chu Tian stood in the corner and secretly clicked his tongue.

He had never seen a middle-grade spirit stone since he was a child. Unexpectedly, Qian Yanghou suddenly took out a hundred yuan, and he had never heard of the other two gifts.

"Haha, such a little bit of rags is worth making a fuss about. I'm really ignorant!"

Balao's disdainful words came from the broken sword wrapped in layers on Chutian's chest.

Chu Tian curled his lips and laughed dryly.

As the weapon spirit of the Immortal-Slaying Sword, Ba Lao had been followed by big figures like saints before, so naturally he looked down on these gifts from the Qianyang Hou Mansion.

"Okay, okay! Lord Marquis is indeed sincere. My Su family has accepted all these gifts!"

Su Shilun laughed heartily and cupped his hands at Chu Changqing.

Immediately, three people walked out of the Su family and collected three gifts.

Seeing this scene, Chu Changqing nodded with satisfaction and accepted the betrothal gift, which meant that the Su family agreed to marry the Chu family and could not regret it at will.

"Xishui, please thank the Marquis quickly, your future father-in-law!"

Su Shilun turned his head and said to Su Xishui beside him.

Su Xishui nodded, stood up, gave a salute to Chu Changqing who was sitting in the chair, and said softly: "Thank you Lord Marquis for the gift, but I'm sorry, Xishui is marrying not the eldest son Chu Xi, but the third son Chu sky."

As soon as these words came out, the whole place fell into silence!
