Creation of the Universe

Chapter 215 Breaking off friendship and righteousness

Judging from their attire, this group of people were the Jinning garrison stationed in Dingzhou City, and the young general who came ahead on horseback was more familiar.

"Shen Zhan, what are you doing in Dingzhou?"

The young general looked down at Shen Zhan and loudly questioned the purpose of his visit.

Shen Zhan smiled faintly and said, "I think the weather in Dingzhou City is comfortable and the environment is nice. I've always wanted to buy some land in Dingzhou and live here from now on."

"Hmph, ridiculous! You've been expelled from the Jinning Palace and are no longer a member of the Shen family. You should be sensible and flee far away. Don't show up in Jinning again, or you'll lose your life!"

"Brother, we are only here in Dingzhou to do some business. Why are you stopping us from entering the city? Father never said that he would not allow my brother to come to Dingzhou."

Shen Yunli said dissatisfiedly.

This young general is Shen Qingyang, the eldest son of King Jinning, and the nominal elder brother of Shen Zhan and Shen Yunli. However, there is a big age gap between them, and they have not had many opportunities to get along since childhood, so their relationship is not harmonious.

Shen Qingyang held a silver spear in his hand, pointed it at Shen Zhan, and mercilessly warned him, "I don't care whether King Jinning has given the order or not. As long as I am stationed in Dingzhou City, I will not let you in!"

"It seems there is no need to discuss."

Shen Zhan put his hands behind his back, signaling Meng Zhong, who was about to make a move, to calm down for the time being. If he didn't stop him, Meng Mengzhong would probably rush up and twist Shen Qingyang's head off.

At such a close distance, it was easy for Meng Zhong to capture the leader first.

It was also because Shen Qingyang didn't know Meng Zhong. If he knew how powerful the latter was, he would never have risked getting so close.

Shen Qingyang looked at Shen Yunli for a few times, and after he seemed to confirm something, he said, "Shen Yunli, you should have returned to the Jinning Palace immediately after participating in the Yiwu League, but why are you with Shen Zhan?

Where are the people who went with you to Beiliang to participate in the military alliance? Why didn't they follow you?

Shen Qingyang was very concerned about the appearance of Shen Yunli.

The news that this proud daughter of heaven had made great strides in Beiliang and surpassed all others in skills had already spread to Jinning. However, Shen Qingyang didn't know that the person who actually won the championship on the martial arts stage was not Shen Yunli, but someone else did it for her.

Shen Yunli replied, "Wherever my brother is, I will be there. I don't plan to go back to the Jinning Palace."

"Nonsense!"

Shen Qingyang frowned, his face stern as if covered with a layer of frost. "Prince Jinning values ​​you so much, but you don't know how to repay your gratitude. It seems that your willful behavior is also influenced by Shen Zhan. Today, I will take you back for Prince Jinning!"

After saying that, Shen Qingyang swept the silver spear in his hand behind him. This seemed to be a retraction, but it was actually the starting posture of the spear technique he learned. Once the spear tip was dragged back, he could exert force and thrust better.

Shen Zhan said in a deep voice, "Shen Qingyang, I've been very patient by not taking any action until now, but don't even think about putting your hands on Li'er, or else the little bit of face you have with me will be gone."

"Hmph, whatever you say, I won't allow you to bring trouble to Dingzhou City!"

Shen Qingyang jumped off his horse, as he was unwilling to take advantage of someone in a superior position. Then he brandished his silver spear and rushed towards Shen Zhan.

Meng Zhong was itching to do something. If Shen Zhan hadn't forbade him to do so, he would have rushed up and taught this boastful kid a lesson.

"Bore!"

The tip of the silver spear was right in front of him. Shen Zhan turned his wrist and flicked it lightly. The thin sword tip hit the tip of the spear, which immediately made Shen Qingyang, who was holding the silver spear, feel numb in both hands and he almost let it go.

The two exchanged a move, and on the scene it looked like a draw, but in fact, anyone with a discerning eye could see that there was a clear difference in strength between them.

Shen Qingyang was puzzled. Although he had heard that Shen Zhan had done many extraordinary things, he had never thought that his brother, who he had never had any contact with, had such powerful strength.

If he continued to attack, he might not be able to gain any advantage, which forced Shen Qingyang to become cautious.

Shen Zhan asked curiously, "We haven't seen each other for many years. How come I don't remember offending you in the past, which led to you targeting me like this? I must enter Dingzhou City today, regardless of whether you want to stop me or not."

Shen Qingyang was full of hostility towards Shen Zhan, but in fact there had never been any intersection between the two, let alone any grudges.

So Shen Zhan really wanted to find out what medicine Shen Qingyang had taken that made him target him like this.

"Shen Zhan, Dingzhou is a strategic location, not a place for someone like you who betrayed the Shen family to come! As the commander of Dingzhou City, I will naturally not let you go. This has nothing to do with any personal grudges between us!"

"Shen Qingyang, Dingzhou is not your Dingzhou, and I hope you can figure this out."

After saying that, Shen Zhan suddenly turned around unexpectedly, as if he wanted to give up going into the city.

This made Shen Qingyang wonder, "Where are you going?"

"Western Suburbs Royal Tomb."

"What did you say? You want to go to the royal mausoleum?"

Shen Zhan replied as a matter of course: "Since there is no personal grudge between you and me, and I don't want you to lose face in front of so many subordinates, Dingzhou City won't let me enter, then I can go to the royal tomb to pay homage to my ancestors, right?

Prince Jinning and I can sever all ties, but you can't deny me as a descendant on behalf of all our ancestors. They might be eager to meet me!

Shen Qingyang really didn't know what to say. Shen Zhan's proposal to go to the royal tomb to pay homage showed that he still had feelings for the Shen family, so it was difficult for him to stop him.

"Forget it. I hope you'll leave Dingzhou as soon as you've visited the royal mausoleum. Otherwise, I won't let you go!"

Shen Qingyang has thousands of defenders under his command, who are numerous and well-equipped. If a real fight breaks out, he believes he can easily put himself in danger of death, but he also doesn't want to be laughed at by outsiders. After all, they are brothers with the same blood.

"Brother, are we really leaving?"

"Those troops may look respectable, but they are actually just low-level warriors. It will be easy for us to enter the city."

Meng Zhong said somewhat unwillingly.

"Yes, Master, that man just now is your and Li'er's elder brother, but how could he be so ruthless? Ordinary people can enter and leave Dingzhou City freely, but you can't. Isn't this bullying?"

Chu Rumeng was very dissatisfied with Shen Qingyang.

Shen Zhan smiled and said, "It's not difficult to enter the city, but I don't want to cause a stir just by entering the city. What's more, my original goal is the Western Suburbs Royal Tomb, so whether I can enter the city or not is actually not a big deal."

"What's in the royal mausoleum?"

"It will become clear when we get there."

Shen Zhan replied.
