Metropolis: The Rise of Chinese Arts

The heavy rain poured down, knocking on the canopy, making a rushing sound.

Zhang Nian was about to sigh that the rain was really heavy.

Suddenly, I saw a figure in the distance running towards it.

When he got closer, he realized that it was Chen Xue.

"How did you come up?"

Zhang Nian asked curiously.

"Ah! Who?"

When Chen Xue heard someone's voice, she jumped up suddenly, and a white light flew out instantly.

Zhang Nian quickly hid to the side and shouted.

"it's me!"

Seeing that it was Zhang Nian, Chen Xue breathed a sigh of relief, and said embarrassingly.

"I'm really sorry, I didn't know you two were on this."

"Then you're not good at this skill, you're inaccurate in judging, inaccurate in throwing, and you're still playing with hidden weapons like this."

Bai Yidao laughed beside him.

The conversation between the two ended in an instant.

"How did you come up?"

Zhang Nian asked again.

Chen Xue stretched out her arms and said.

"It's nothing, I just like rainy days. The place where our family lived before didn't have this kind of rooftop, so I yearn for it very much."

As she spoke, she stretched her hands out of the awning and brought back some rainwater.

Bai Yidao and Zhang Nian looked at each other, wondering what kind of hobby this young lady is.

"By the way, what are you two doing up there?"

"It's nothing. We just couldn't sleep and came up to chat."

Zhang Nian said.

Chen Xue didn't seem to have listened to what Zhang Nian had to say, and said without waiting for him to finish.

"By the way, Master Zhang, I also know what Fang family that person is talking about today. It is said that it is a very powerful family that has risen recently. It may have surpassed the four major families in Tiandu City. How did you provoke such a family?" people."

At this moment, Zhang Nian felt like a dumb man eating Coptis chinensis, he couldn't tell the pain at all.

But if he didn't offend the people in this family, why would they investigate him.

"If they are offended, it may only be because of the martial arts association. As for ourselves, it seems that we have never had any intersection."

"This Fang family is a family of Shaolin boxing, with superior strength. If it is because of the martial arts association, I think it is unlikely."

Tang Xue said.

Although Zhang Nian didn't know why he offended the Fang family.

But from the mouths of Chen Xue and Bai Yidao, he could feel the strength of the Fang family.

No one can imagine what it would be like for a family to be able to withstand the existence of the four great families in Tiandu City.

Standing between the two of them, Zhang Nian felt even more bored.

He simply walked to the side, quietly watching the heavy rain outside.

Like the heavy rain, it made a huge noise, but it made people feel peaceful.

"You haven't been home for so long, does your family miss you?"

Bai Yidao actually chatted with Chen Xue.

Chen Xue said expressionlessly.

"This is their business and has nothing to do with me, just like this is my business and has nothing to do with you."

She didn't even move her eyes, and didn't pay attention to Bai Yidao.

Bai Yidao sneered and said.

"You little girl has a strong temper, so tell me why you condescend to come to Zhang Nian."

Chen Xue didn't seem to be interested in Bai Yidao's boring questions, and she didn't plan to answer them, but just looked at Yu Ye quietly.

"It seems that someone is going to deal with your family."

"What did you say?"

Finally, Chen Xue raised her eyebrows and glared at Bai Yidao.

At this moment, Bai Yidao turned around with a calm expression.

And Zhang Nian listened to all the conversations between the two.

He looked at Chen Xue and said.

"Brother Bai is telling the truth?"

Chen Xue muttered for a long while, and could only nod her head, admitting.

"Yes, there are indeed people who want to deal with our family, but they are the same."

Zhang Nian naturally knew what she meant by the two of them.

That must refer to Xu Hui and Ye Chenglong.

They were probably thinking that if they came to Zhang Nian, they would have some relationship with Zhang Nian.

Judging from the previous experience of the Li family being wiped out.

At that time, say a few soft words, maybe they can still have a chance of life.

"So it's because of this, but Tong Man'er is already here, who will touch you."

Zhang Nian asked.

Chen Xue shook her head and said.

"I don't know about their two families, but our family is the Fang family. They want to annex our family. I think it is largely affected by the collapse of the Li family."

"Don't think about it, that is, the Tong family destroyed the Li family, and the Tong family is a big family in the eastern district of Wanhua City. At this time, the other districts must have been unable to sit still. It's no wonder they don't take action."

Bai Yidao said calmly beside him.

"So the Fang family wants to swallow me up straight?"

Only then did Zhang Nian turn around and look at the two of them.

Bai Yidao turned around to look at Zhang Nian in an extremely uncomfortable posture.

Said for a long time.

"I think the Fang family thinks further. What they think is that if they swallow you, it is equivalent to directly swallowing the four families of Tiandu, and they also swallow Qingyun City by the way."

Zhang Nian nodded. There is no such big family in Qingyun City, and the Martial Arts Association has become the largest group.

The rest of the companies of Yang Fei's two younger brothers are considered big, but they have nothing to do with them.

If the Fang family had reached an agreement with him, wouldn't it be easy to take the two big cities in the north, Tiandu City and Qingyun City at the same time?

At that time, the regional martial arts association must be theirs.

It's a pity that the people they sent over were not strong enough, and moreover, they did more than fail.

Not only did Zhang Nian not talk about it, but he was beaten.

"The Fang family cannot be allowed to succeed."

Zhang Nian suddenly said coldly.

Bai Yidao sighed beside him and said.

"Hey, no one knows that he can't succeed. Think about it, if the Fang family really swallowed these two cities, what would be the consequences?"

"The consequence is that the Fang family will become the biggest winners in the whole north and all the martial arts association circles. At that time, even if they add up all the power of Wanhua City, they will not be their opponents."

Chen Xue also echoed.

Zhang Nian frowned and looked at the two of them.

With a few simple words, the three of them have basically seen through everything behind.

But it stands to reason that the Fang family has such a big family background, if they really rushed towards it with all their strength, they might not be able to stop it at all.

The power of capital is always the strongest.

Seeing Zhang Nian's helpless look, Bai Yidao said beside him.

"Be at ease, as the saying goes, when soldiers come, they will block the water and cover them with earth. If they come hard, so many of us will stand by your side. If they come soft, you have to remember that the property of the Li family is in your hands after all. Woolen cloth."

"Yes, Master Zhang, if the Fang family relies on their own capital to overwhelm them, my Chen family is also willing to contribute part of it."
