Chen Jiuyang glanced at his home. Zhang Xiuzhen, Chen Yating, and Yao Zixuan were all there. The newly installed metal security door was good.
He said calmly, "Secretary Huang, you can't just say things like that. I didn't hit anyone. What explanation do you want from me?"
Huang Liangbo sneered, "Then how did my nephew and the others get injured and hospitalized? I'm letting it go because we're all neighbors in the same village, and I haven't taken you to the police station. You'd better be honest."
Chen Jiuyang glanced at him dismissively, "Secretary Huang, so many people saw yesterday that the Mountain God appeared and protected our family. Your nephew and the others were bitten by snakes and rats. What does that have to do with me?"
"If you have proof that I did it, then call the police and arrest me. Why are you talking nonsense here?"
Huang Liangbo stepped forward, and the dozen or so people behind him were all carrying knives and sticks. He said coldly, "It seems you won't stop until you hit the Yellow River. If I don't teach you a lesson today, you won't admit your mistake and wake up."
Chen Jiuyang smiled, "If you have the guts, try it. Be careful the Mountain God gets angry again."
As his voice fell, a snake coiled in the grass raised its head and flicked its tongue.
The dozen or so people behind Huang Liangbo suddenly felt their legs go weak.
Huang Liangbo's face looked displeased, but he said, "I don't believe in any of that so-called Mountain God. Let's see if he can appear."
As soon as Huang Liangbo finished speaking, a snake immediately rushed out and bit him.
The dozen or so people were all scared pale. Was it really the Mountain God appearing?
This was too strange!
Chen Jiuyang chuckled, "See? This is what happens when you disrespect the Mountain God."
Village Secretary Huang Liangbo was bitten twice by the snake and fainted. The snake was then killed by his relative, and they hastily carried Huang Liangbo away.
After returning home for breakfast, Zhang Xiuzhen asked, "Jiuyang, will the five families of immortals invited by the Mountain God attack our family?"
Chen Jiuyang smiled, "Mom, as long as we are at home and don't bully our family, the Mountain God won't get angry, nor will he attack our family. Don't worry."
Zhang Xiuzhen nodded with a solemn expression.
After breakfast, Chen Jiuyang mentioned that he was going to Fengcheng today and then left in Yao Zixuan's car.
After an hour and a half drive, they arrived in Fengcheng. Yao Zixuan dropped Chen Jiuyang off at the Fengcheng subway station, saying she would pick him up after she finished her business, and then drove away.
Chen Jiuyang took a taxi to Fengcheng Prison.
"Hello, I'm here to visit."
As he walked into the prison, Chen Jiuyang felt a sense of injustice.
"Who?"
"Chen Jianmin."
After signing the procedures, Chen Jiuyang soon saw his father, Chen Jianmin.
His father, Chen Jianmin, was a construction contractor and earned some money. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to support the education of their two children.
A year ago, when Chen Jianmin was wrongly convicted and sentenced to death, he had told Chen Jiuyang, "Jiuyang, whether Dad lives or not, you must live well with your mother from now on, don't let her worry, and help her with more things."
Later, Chen Jiuyang worked hard and exposed Wang Tian's actions, reducing the death sentence to fifty years. With good behavior, he could even get further reductions. Chen Jianmin felt a little better. However, not long after, someone informed him that his son had been killed by Wang Tian, pushed off a cliff, and was nowhere to be found.
Chen Jianmin's hair turned white overnight. In a year, a man in his early fifties looked like he was sixty, a picture of desolation.
The moment Chen Jianmin saw Chen Jiuyang, tears streamed down his face, "Jiuyang, is it really you?"
Chen Jiuyang's nose also felt a little sore, "Dad, it's me."
"It's good that you're alive, it's good that you're alive." Chen Jianmin's eyes lit up, and he cried and laughed, "As long as you're still here, my Chen family still has hope."
Chen Jiuyang suppressed his emotions and was about to catch up with Chen Jianmin when he suddenly saw his father sitting in a wheelchair with his leg in a cast and bandages. He circulated his spiritual energy and found that his father's leg was broken:
"Dad, what happened to your leg?"
Chen Jianmin sighed, his face showing fear, as if he were making a will, "Yesterday afternoon, a few people suddenly grabbed me and broke my leg. Jiuyang, I'm telling you, that Wang family doesn't intend to let us go. Listen to me, take your mother and Xiao Ya and leave Feng Province. Find a place far away to live well."
Chen Jiuyang's heart surged with anger, and he gritted his teeth, "Wang family! I'll make sure you all die a horrible death!"
"Dad, don't be afraid. It won't be long before I can get you released from prison and clear your name."
"As for the Wang family, I'll make them all kneel before you and await your release!"
Chen Jianmin's face turned pale, and he quickly said, "Jiuyang, don't be impulsive. I've thought it through this past year. Our family is just ordinary farmers, and the Wang family is a powerful local clan in Fengcheng. We can't fight against their family."
At this moment, a prison guard walked over, "Time is up."
Chen Jianmin stood up, "Jiuyang, you must not be impulsive!"
Chen Jiuyang took a deep breath, "Dad, I have a plan. You just stay in prison and recover."
After leaving the prison, Chen Jiuyang took a car to Fengcheng Medical College.
Upon arriving at the school gate, Chen Jiuyang was filled with emotion. His best friend Hu Qijie walked up and gave him a bear hug.
"Jiuyang, good heavens, you've disappeared for a year, and you've trained your body so well. You're all muscle."
Chen Jiuyang smiled, "It's passable."
"What do you mean passable? Where have you been?" Hu Qijie asked.
"It's hard to say." Chen Jiuyang had signed a confidentiality agreement with the Sharp Blade Legion, so he couldn't even tell his parents. He shook his head, "Why did you call me back to school?"
Hu Qijie's expression was strange, and he said solemnly, "I've already called Wang Xuelian to come over. You'll know when she gets here."
Wang Xuelian was Chen Jiuyang's girlfriend in college.
They were classmates in high school. He was the campus heartthrob, and Wang Xuelian was the campus belle. They both got into the same university and then got together. When they entered university, they were an enviable loving couple in everyone's eyes.
However, Chen Jiuyang had been missing for a year. Last night, when he logged into QQ and WeChat, Wang Xuelian, as his girlfriend, had only sent a few messages.
As his thoughts shifted, coupled with his good brother Hu Qijie's words, his heart sank slightly, and then he felt a sense of clarity and relief.
Not long after, a sexy woman dressed in a low-cut top, black stockings, high heels, and adorned with jewelry walked up to the two of them.
This elegant woman was Wang Xuelian.
Wang Xuelian walked over and said to Hu Qijie, "Hu Qijie, why did you call me out?"
After speaking, she noticed Chen Jiuyang standing beside him and asked with some uncertainty, "Jiuyang, is that you?"
Chen Jiuyang's expression was calm and faint, "Who else do you think it is?"
Wang Xuelian was stunned. She felt a strange sensation. Chen Jiuyang had changed so much after not seeing him for a year.
His chiseled features, his hormones-bursting muscles, he was exceptionally handsome. Even girls on the street wanted to ask for Chen Jiuyang's contact information.
