Chapter 1875 1875: Leng Family
"Alright then."
Since Leng Ning said so, Su Chen didn't ask further.
After the Red Feather Hawk landed, Su Chen let it fly away!
"Leng Ning, if anything comes up, you can send me a message!"
Su Chen noticed that Leng Ning seemed troubled but was reluctant to speak, so he advised her.
He also gave her a Sound Transmission Talisman for easy communication!
"I understand."
Leng Ning nodded, feeling a hint of warmth inside.
"Oh, isn't this the young lady?"
Right at that moment, a teasing voice sounded nearby!
Upon hearing the voice, Leng Ning couldn't help but turn her head to look, her face instantly turning cold!
"What are you doing here?"
Leng Ning asked coldly.
"Of course, it's because the madam asked me to wait here."
The man seemed to answer respectfully:
"I've been waiting at this city gate for three days."
Then, he turned his gaze to Su Chen:
"Young lady, who is this...?"
"He's my friend."
Leng Ning's tone remained icy.
"Is he going back with you?"
The man asked again.
Leng Ning replied straightforwardly: "No need, he's in the Imperial City for other matters."
"Young lady, since you're here, you should visit home, or people might think our Leng Family doesn't treat guests well!"
The man's eyes shifted, smiling slyly.
Listening to their conversation, Su Chen finally understood that Leng Ning was from the Imperial City!
At this moment, he was inwardly sneering, who is the master and who is the servant here!
This reminded him of the people he met last time in the Imperial Capital of Shenfeng Dynasty!
If he guessed correctly, those people were sent out by that madam too!
He also vaguely understood Leng Ning's previous attitude, perhaps she didn't want him caught in the conflicts.
Then, the man looked at Su Chen again:
"Young sir, since you're the young lady's friend, why not come with us to the Leng Mansion."
Upon hearing this, Leng Ning was about to refuse, but Su Chen had already spoken up.
"Sure, it'll be a pleasure!"
Su Chen replied with a light smile.
"Then please, you two!"
The man hurriedly said, then led the way.
Leng Ning couldn't help but glance at Su Chen, who gave her a slight smile:
"It's okay!"
Leng Ning heard this and sighed!
In truth, deep down, she hoped Su Chen would accompany her, because that home always made her feel uneasy, but she didn't want Su Chen caught too deeply!
This is the Imperial City, each power here is far beyond even the royal families of Shenfeng, Xianluo, and Zhenyu Dynasties!
Walking down the street, Su Chen was somewhat astounded by the Imperial City's foundation!
"Leng Ning, could you tell me about the situation in the Imperial City?"
Su Chen casually asked.
"Hm."
Leng Ning also felt that since he was here, learning more was necessary!
"The Imperial City has numerous family powers, roughly divided into several tiers by strength: top-tier, upper-tier, middle-tier, and lower-tier families."
Leng Ning explained:
"The Leng Family is a member of the lower-tier families!"
"But even lower-tier families here are beyond what Shenfeng Dynasty, Xianluo Dynasty, and Zhenyu Dynasty can compare."
At this point, the man ahead proudly said:
"Our Leng Family's Family Head has reached the Seventh Turn of Divine Sea Realm, and there are about thirty experts in Divine Sea Realm."
Upon hearing this, Su Chen clicked his tongue!
The difference is extraordinary indeed!
If a lower-tier family is already like this, what of the middle-tier families?
Not to mention upper-tier and top-tier families!
"Don't talk about anything else, our young master's cultivation has already reached Divine Sea Realm!"
Seeing Su Chen's amazement, the man sneered, as if seeing a country bumpkin.
Leng Ning was also a bit shocked internally, hadn't expected her brother to break through that major realm!
While she herself cultivated diligently, she was only at the Eighth Turn of Cave Void Realm!
She understood that the cultivation resources at Zhaixing Academy couldn't compare to the Leng Family, and it's thanks to the Spiritual Grade elixirs Su Chen gave her that she broke through to the Eighth Turn.
After a while, the three arrived at a grand mansion!
It was the Leng Family!
"Please wait here for a moment, I'll go inform them!"
The man said and instantly left!
"Don't say anything rash in a moment."
Leng Ning spoke at this time.
Su Chen casually nodded, saying nothing either!
Moments later, several people appeared!
First was a middle-aged man in a purple robe, his hair slightly white, his aura vast, eyes containing sharp light, exuding an air of authority!
Su Chen didn't guess wrong, he must be the Leng Family Head, and of course, Leng Ning's father!
Beside him was a middle-aged woman, still charming, indicating that she was quite pretty in her younger years, though she was a bit less compared to Leng Ning!
Beside this woman was a young man, about twenty-six or seven years old!
He was at the Second Turn of Divine Sea Realm, likely the young master the man mentioned earlier!
"Ning'er, you're back?"
The middle-aged man spoke with a mix of reproach and detectable joy!
His gaze toward Leng Ning also conveyed some affection!
"Father, I came back on short notice..."
"What do you mean short notice!"
The young man mocked coldly:
"Isn't it because it's your mother's death anniversary, you come back during this time each year, and leave right after paying respects!"
"If not for this, you'd probably forget you're part of the Leng Family now!"
Leng Ning didn't retort, nor did she say anything, she looked at Su Chen:
"This is my father Leng Mingqi, and this is Aunt Zhang."
"Young man Su Chen!"
Su Chen greeted politely.
Though he wasn't fully aware of the Leng Family's situation, he had guessed some of it!
Leng Ning's mother should be Leng Mingqi's first wife, who passed away, and Aunt Zhang might be the second wife, with the young master as her son!
It seemed Aunt Zhang and her son were somewhat estranged towards Leng Ning!
"This is my brother Leng Xu."
Leng Ning continued to introduce to Su Chen.
"Leng Ning, your relationship with this Su fellow is not ordinary, is it?"
Aunt Zhang spoke smilingly, looking affable and enthusiastic.
"No, we're just ordinary friends!"
Leng Ning shyly shook her head.
This statement fell on the Leng family's ears, but they didn't quite believe it!
They all knew Leng Ning usually wouldn't even look at men, let alone bring one home!
