Chapter 485: It's just a defensive strategy, don't get involved
Xin Zhen's words annoyed Chen Shiing-Shen. He stared at Xin Zhen closely, bursting out with all his might without reservation, and an invisible pressure swept towards Xin Zhen.

Xin Zhen's robe fluttered without wind, and the blue bricks under his feet cracked silently and stretched into spider silk. Xin Zhen looked down at the blue bricks and said with a smile: "It seems that the head of the Chen family not only wants to suppress others with power, but also with force. This is not the way to treat guests. Is this how the Chen family, which has been nobles for generations, behaves in such a domineering way?"

Everyone present was surprised to see that Xin Zhen could still speak normally without even a stutter under Chen Xingshen's suppression.

You know, Shiing-Shen Chern is a rare genius in the Chen family, and he had already entered the Nascent Soul stage decades ago.

Although he has not been in the Nascent Soul realm for long, he is still a Nascent Soul monster. His combat power is unmatched except for the top few.

I didn’t expect that I couldn’t suppress a young man. What level is this young man at?

Chen Shengshen was also very surprised. It would be difficult to suppress others with the Nascent Soul stage with such ease unless the other party had reached the Great Perfection of the Golden Core. Could it be that this young man, at such a young age, had already reached the Great Perfection of the Golden Core?
If this is true, the future is promising and the younger generation is to be feared!

Thinking of this, the frost on Chen's face melted away, and he immediately smiled and said, "Master Xin, Master Xin, you are really a young man to be feared!
Don't mind it. This is just a bad habit of mine. When I see an outstanding young person, I always want to see his character and cultivation.

Master Xin, you are very good, really very good, I am very interested in the future cooperation. "

Xin Zhen smiled slightly and said, "It seems that I have passed the test of Master Chen?"

Chen Xingshen laughed and said, "Not at all. Master Xin is the most respected person in the sect. How can I dare to test him?"

Xin Zhen waved his hand and said with a smile: "Master Chen, don't be so polite. It's normal to see the other party's strength when discussing cooperation. Is Master Chen ready?"

Chen Xingshen asked in surprise: "Preparing for what?"

Xin Zhen smiled lightly and said, "Of course you will accept my test. Master Chen, here I come."

Chen Xingshen's face changed and he said, "How dare you, boy!"

Before he finished speaking, Xin Zhen stepped in front of Chen Shiing-Shen. Chen Shiing-Shen snorted, and a large area of ​​space in front of him seemed to collapse, wrapping him up. This was the unique skill of the Gusu Chen family, named "Mustard Seed", which was taken from the Buddhist idea of ​​"a mustard seed containing Mount Sumeru". It was an extremely sophisticated spatial means.

Now Chen Xingshen seems to be in front of Xin Zhen, but in fact, no one knows how far away he is.

Xin Zhen snorted, and then a moving Banlan Chui came whistling and smashed hard on the space. Suddenly, the collapsed space shook violently, and Chen Shiing-Shen suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood with a "pu" sound.

Xu Bangchang was surprised and said, "How is it possible? There is already another small world in the mustard seed. How could you, Sect Master Xin, injure the head of the Chen family?"

Xin Zhen smiled and said, "Strength can break it. Do you know gravitational waves? Gravitational waves can be transmitted in space. As long as my punch is strong enough, I can create gravitational waves in space. When the gravitational waves are transmitted into the small world, Patriarch Chen will be injured without any preparation."

Xu Bangchang said, "You mean that Patriarch Chen thought you couldn't hit him, so he was not prepared at all and was caught off guard and injured all of a sudden."

Xin Zhen nodded and said, "That's true, but if Patriarch Chen is prepared, he will still be injured..."

As he said this, Xin Zhen punched the collapsed space again, and Chen Shiing-Shen couldn't help but vomit blood again.

Chen Liyan was horrified and said, "How is this possible! Once the Chen family's mustard seed is used, even a Yuanying ancestor can no longer hurt my Chen family. How come you can hurt my family master again and again?"

Xin Zhen smiled and said, "Because... this kind of space utilization is too crude. It's just hiding oneself in the small world. It's fine for ordinary people, but if you meet an expert, he can tear the mustard seed out with a little force."

Chen Xingshen lost his composure and shouted, "This is impossible, this is absolutely impossible. For thousands of years, no one has been able to truly break the mustard seed of my Chen family! Not even the gods can do it!"

Xin Zhen laughed and said, "You are a frog in a well. Let me show you what I am capable of."

As he spoke, Xin Zhen stretched out his hand and grabbed the edge of the collapsed space, and tore the space off in an instant like tearing off a sticky note. Chen Shiing-Shen was immediately pulled out and fell to the ground.

This time all the members of the Chen family were killed, and the members of the Xu family looked at each other in confusion. Huo Guang stared at everything that was happening before his eyes in amazement.

“This…this…what is going on!?”

Chen Shiing-Shen fell to the ground and looked at Xin Zhen with horror.

Xin Zhen reached out his hand to help Chen Xingshen up. Chen Xingshen was so frightened that he used his hands and feet to dodge Xin Zhen. Xin Zhen said sincerely: "I will help you up."

Chen Shiing-Shen quickly stood up, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, straightened his clothes, and sat on the armchair with a gloomy face.

Xin Zhen and Chen Liyan nodded and said, "The Patriarch of the Chen family is still very powerful. I didn't kill him with two punches. His strength is not bad."

Chern: “…”

other people:"……"

Xu Rongsheng was already laughing when he saw Chen Xingshen making such a fool of himself. He was quite pleased and asked, "Does Chen Xingshen pass your test?"

Xin Zhen looked at Xu Rongsheng with a half-smile and said, "I heard that the Xu family also wants to cooperate?"

Xu Rongsheng quickly waved his hands and said, "Don't test me. I can't stand the test. The Xu family does have plans to cooperate. Otherwise, why don't you test Xu Bangchang?"

Xu Bangchang: “…”

Since the other party admitted his weakness, Xin Zhen would not deliberately humiliate him. The reason why he disciplined Chen Xingshen was because Chen Xingshen's attitude was too high, which was not conducive to the future cooperation. If he was not given a lesson, there would probably be too many troubles in the future cooperation. What to do if the child is disobedient? Just give him a beating.

This was the case with Chen Shiing-Shen. After being punched twice by Xin Zhen, he became much more honest. When talking about cooperation again, his attitude was very good.

In fact, Xin Zhen did not intend to make any profit from this monster trading platform, and he did not even allow the Huashan Sect to join in it.

He came up with this idea to solve the threat posed by monsters to Jiangsu and Zhejiang, but trafficking in intelligent monsters was a challenge to Xin Zhen's moral bottom line.

Xin Zhen knew very well that once this platform for capturing monsters was established, these man-eating monsters would be captured. Similarly, those monsters that did not eat humans or were even very kind would also become commodities. They would be accidentally injured, sent to the auction table, and then become slaves, cannon fodder, playthings, or even food.

Xin Zhen will not regret building such a platform, because wars between races are like this, it has always been a fight to the death, and the war will not stop unless the other side is sent to hell.

But Xin Zhen would not allow the disciples of Huashan Sect to become such executioners and monster dealers, even though the business of selling monsters was extremely profitable, so profitable that even the Chen and Xu families were salivating over it.

Therefore, in the subsequent negotiations, Xin Zhen only put forward suggestions on how to build the platform, and provided guidance on the formulation of rules and regulations, and how the platform can accommodate more forces. When it came to the distribution of interests, Xin Zhen did not want a penny, which surprised the Chen and Xu families.

Xu Rongsheng frowned and said, "Master Xin, what do you mean by this? The benefits here are as great as rivers flowing with silver and mountains shining with golden light. Even if you only get 10%, your Huashan Sect will become the richest sect in the world. What do you mean by this? Is there something taboo?"

Chen Shengshen and others also looked at Xin Zhen in confusion, with vigilance in their eyes. If Xin Zhen did not tell them the reason, they might not continue... That was impossible, but they would regard Xin Zhen as an enemy.

Xin Zhen said bitterly, "The ancestors of Huashan Sect once had a master who married a demon, so the ancestral teachings passed down by our ancestors are that demons must not be killed, insulted, tortured, or sold without reason.

This time I came up with this idea to eliminate these hundreds of thousands of monsters, and even personally captured dozens of monsters for auction as an example. To be honest, this is already against our ancestral precepts.

After returning to Huashan Sect, I must go to the ancestral temple and kneel down to beg the ancestor for forgiveness. If I really get involved in the trafficking of monsters, I am afraid that no one in the sect will tolerate me."

When Chen, Xu and the others heard Xin Zhen's reason, they were relieved at once, and then they began to gloat over their misfortune, and even felt happy. After all, if Huashan Sect couldn't get a share, they would be able to get more.

After Xin Zhen finished explaining everything about the platform, he said goodbye and left. Huo Guang also didn't want to stay here, so he followed Xin Zhen away.

Chen Xingshen sneered at Xin Zhen's back. At this time, Xu Rongsheng smiled and said, "Do you believe what he said?"

Chen Xingshen sneered: "What a mess! Those are just excuses. They are nothing more than a bunch of nonsense about the harmony of heaven and the benevolence of benevolent people."

Xu Rongsheng smiled and said, "In the face of such huge interests, he can still stick to his ideals. Isn't such a person also very respectable?"

Chen Xingshen laughed and said, "In this chaotic world, people don't admire heroes, they only believe in tyrants. Strength is the most fundamental thing. He clearly has an opportunity to soar to the sky, but he insists on some bullshit reasoning. He deserves that his Huashan Sect is just a small sect. When I unify Jiangnan, the first thing I will do is to destroy the Huashan Sect!"

Hearing this, Xu Rongsheng sneered.

At this time, Xin Zhen and Huo Guang had returned to the City God Temple. The auction in front of the temple had ended. Xin Shao, the head of the Xin clan, came over excitedly to talk to Xin Zhen and said, "All 43 Guanhai Realm monsters have been auctioned off, with an average price of 300,000 taels of silver each, for a total profit of 12.9 million taels of silver.

Jin'er, this business is great. If we can capture dozens of monsters every year, it will be enough to cover the food expenses of the Huashan Sect and the Xin clan!"

Xin Zhen shook his head and said, "Uncle, we don't do this."

Xin Shao was surprised and asked, "Why not?"

He probably felt that there was something wrong with his tone, so he quickly whispered to Xin Zhen, "I heard from Chen Liyan that you want to set up a monster trading platform. This is something you can do. If you really do it, the Huashan Sect will be able to take off."

Xin Zhen shook his head and said, "Uncle, this matter ends here. Don't mention it again. The matter of the Monster Platform has nothing to do with our Huashan Sect or the Xin family."

Xin Shao took a deep breath and said, "You are worried about the reputation. If you are worried about affecting the reputation of Huashan Sect and Xin's family, we can support external families to do this."

Xin Zhen looked at Xin Shao and knew that if he didn't explain the matter clearly today, Xin Shao would eventually feel unwilling to give in. If Xin Shao was attracted by the huge benefits and did this secretly without telling him, it would only make things worse. So he might as well explain the matter clearly.

Xin Zhen pulled Xin Shao to a deserted place and said, "Uncle, let me make this matter clear to you. Selling monsters is a serious matter that will bring disaster to our descendants. Once we really get involved in it, our descendants will not have peace for generations. Do you understand what I mean?"

Xin Shao frowned and said, "Once the platform for selling monster beasts is established, all cultivators in the world will participate in it. Humans and monster beasts will be irreconcilable. If the monster beasts are not completely driven out of human territory, how can those aristocratic families feel at ease? So it doesn't matter if they are offended, right?"

Xin Zhen shook his head and smiled, saying: "The demon race and the human race are completely inseparable. Every aristocratic family has tens of thousands of demon beast slaves. Even ordinary wealthy families have a few demon beast slaves. They are used to using demon beast slaves, so how can they give them up?

These monster slaves are all intelligent. They are only forced to submit to humans due to the soul contract, but the objects of their submission are only the aristocratic families they are loyal to. The rest of the human race has no power of restraint for them.

For example, if the demon beast slaves knew that the Xin family was the instigator of the slave trade, do you think these demon beast slaves would hate the Xin family to the core? Once they have the chance, they will definitely take ruthless revenge. Will the Xin family be able to withstand the attacks of the demon beast slaves at that time? "

At this point, Xin Shao was already sweating profusely. Thinking of that scene, he was horrified.

This is not the end yet, Xin Zhen smiled and said: "The human race and the demon race have lived together for thousands or even tens of thousands of years, and neither has been able to destroy the other. Even when the human race was at its peak, there were dragons who became gods in heaven, four great demon foxes in the world, and countless mountain spirits and wild monsters.

Now that the Hua Dynasty has been destroyed and the human race is in chaos, is it really possible to destroy the demon race?
I don't think so. This law of buying and selling monsters is just a special response measure to prevent the monsters from subverting the human race. It is impossible to destroy the monsters.

Therefore, Huashan Sect and Xin Clan cannot get involved in this matter, even if there is a huge benefit. Otherwise, once they become a thorn in the eyes of the demon clan, even a country will find it difficult to resist the attack of the demon clans all over the world! "

Xin Shao felt cold all over.
