Chapter 1561
“The Battle of the Gatekeepers?”
Chen Daojun smiled oddly, “If you were familiar with history, you shouldn’t be asking this question.”
“History?”
Chen Dong’s brows knitted slightly in confusion.
Chen Daojun had his hands behind his back, the remaining light in the dimly lit room imprinted on his face with an extraordinarily cold look.
“A million dead in the country, a thousand miles of corpses in ambush.”
Eight simple words, but as heavy as a thousand pounds.
There was a pause.
Chen Daojun added, “In the long history, the three emperors set up the kingdom, the five emperors opened up the frontier, and the generations changed, which time was it not a river of blood and dry bones? But upon closer examination, beneath the white capped bones and rivers of blood, you will find other existences.”
Chen Dong was stunned, his gaze burning as he stared at Chen Daogun.
“Magnates, lineages, gentry, lineage gentry, which represent the strength and prosperity of a family’s power.”
Chen Daogun smiled proudly, “Guanlong Li family, Ying noble family …… these are all magnificent momentary gentry in the long history, and Jiang family …… do you know that the ancestral origin is enough to catch up with that sage sage who tasted a hundred herbs! ”
Chen Dong’s breath choked.
An inexplicable fearful tension, oiled.
“The so-called battle of the gatekeepers is similar to the change of dynasties? A great chaos in the world?”
Chen Dong’s lips mouthed, as if with all his might, he asked.
Chen Daogun did not directly explain what exactly the War of the Gatekeepers was, but in a few sentences, he made Chen Dong’s mind speculate.
The Li family, the Ying family, even the Jiang family!
How could these not be the families that shone in the long history and forged dynasties?
“That’s roughly what it means.”
Chen Daojun put his hands behind his back, “Dynasties change, it’s the general trend, and it’s the gatekeepers who set off the war and change the dynasty, the two complement each other, while in times of peace, if the gatekeepers declare war, they are also powerful enough to cause chaos in the world and change the dynasty.”
After a pause, he added: “That is why the Jiang family, such as the family of the lineage, restored and prospered for a thousand years, and was able to support the building when the world was about to be in turmoil, was never just talk, after all, the core of the world’s chaos …… is the war of the gatekeepers!”
Is this the …… real world?
Chen Dong bowed his head, his heart pounding.
Chen Daogun’s three words were like a big invisible hand that once again lifted a corner of the mystery of this world for him.
Why was the Jiang family able to save the building from falling?
If that was the case, then it was only natural!
A family that has flourished for a thousand years represents the best power in the world, even if it is a battle between families that would shake the world, in their eyes, it is just an arm wrestle between young men!
The three attributes of power, money and martial arts have created different gentry, families and gentry.
The change of dynasties is a major trend and a change of power, and the gentry with this attribute of power changed their dynasties, but the gentry with the other two attributes have the same path, and their power is able to shake the world after all!
“Do you understand now?”
Chen Daojun’s tone eased a little: “A sect like the two Li Gu families will only have stronger killer weapons than the Iga Ryu, not to mention a deeper heritage. Go and build your new Chan, and when you are strong enough, no one will stop you from taking your revenge, and this battle will be unavoidable!”
Silence.
A needle could be heard.
A long time later.
Chen Dong exhaled heavily and squeezed out a smile, “I understand, thank you for your understanding.”
“Alright, gather your mood and go down to eat, you still have a long way to go in the future!”
Chen Daogun said calmly, turning around and walking out the door.
Chen Dong got up and walked into the bathroom, scooping up a handful of water and splashing it on his face as he looked at himself in the mirror.
A day of sinking had left him looking quite dishevelled, and his sighing scruff was showing.
The nostrils were filled with the unpleasant smell of tobacco and alcohol.
He slowly lifted his right hand, touched himself on the mirror and said firmly, “Come on, Little Shadow and the baby, waiting for you to become king!”
After dinner.
Chen Dong was busy sorting out various matters.
After the southwest was set, there were still many, many things to be dealt with, huge and small, and he did not say that he would pat all of them forward, but he had to go over them and have them in mind.
And in Zhao Broshi’s room.
Chen Daojun and Wu Chang were stationed in front of the desk, looking at the drawing paper in front of them.
“This came out of this kid’s drawer.”
Impermanence pointed to the drawing paper on the desk, “I didn’t expect that this kid was still a master of drawing!”
If Chen Dong had been present, he would have inevitably recognised that this painting was the tragic scene like Shura’s hell painted by Zhao Brelu at that time.
“Xu Qingfeng has taught me well.”
Chen Daojun’s right hand landed on the drawing paper, “There is the Eight Formation Diagram of Gods and Ghosts, and there is also this painting, even if this brat Zhao Breru grows a hundred mouths, he will have to give me a clear explanation!”
“This painting ……”
The faint smile on Wu Chang’s face disappeared, as she sensed the hidden meaning in Chen Daojun’s words.
Chen Daojun’s eyebrows were morose, and a layer of frost covered his cold face.
“Probably …… is the world more than two hundred days from now!”
Boom!
Changeless was struck by lightning, and a look of horror and fear suddenly appeared on his old face.
“No, it can’t be! This, how is this possible?”
Impermanence’s voice was trembling, at this moment, even her mind could hardly maintain her composure: “If this painting is of the world more than two hundred days later, wouldn’t that B*****d boy, Zhao Broke-Ru, be able to divine beforehand?”
“Old Dog Xu never picks any scraps of heritage, what’s so surprising about unpredictability?”
Chen Daojun rolled up the painting on the table and gave Changeless a calm sidelong glance, “I am equally able to divine before my time, so why aren’t you surprised?”
Impermanence’s gaze flickered for a moment, returning to his senses and shaking his head.
“No, it’s not the same, your unpredictability is pushing the general trend, it’s the general trend, you stand on top of the wave to see farther ahead naturally, even you will push the general trend with your own hands, while this B*****d boy Zhao Breru, with the skills he learned from Xu Qingfeng, this painting in front of him, can be copied from thin air!”
“Let’s go, go to Dong’er’s.”
Chen Daojun dropped a sentence and took the lead in heading outside.
“Can a person really do this?”
Wu Chang muttered, his eyes full of disbelief as he immediately followed Chen Daojun.
Creak ……
The door to the study was pushed open.
Chen Dong put down the information and raised his eyes to look at Chen Daogun and Impermanence who walked into the room.
He was about to greet them when his gaze fell on Changeless’ horrified and shocked face, but he could not help but stare.
Had something happened again?
He didn’t have to wait for him to say anything.
Chen Daojun walked over to the table and spread out the painting paper, “This time, neither you nor Jiang Qilin will be able to stop me from forcing Zhao Brezhong to ask him!”
“This painting ……”
Chen Dong looked at the scene of Purgatory on the drawing paper in surprise, and a sense of familiarity came over him.
After all, he had only caught a glimpse of this painting at first, and was unable to leave much of a memory.
While he was thinking about it.
However, Chen Daogun’s words made Chen Dong sit up and wax on the spot.
“This is the world after two hundred days copied by that boy Zhao Breru!”
Chapter 1562
All of a sudden.
The air in the study seemed to freeze.
Chen Dong’s eyes were wide open as he stared at the scene on the scroll that looked like a scene from Shura’s hell, a chill ran down his back, and his scalp exploded.
Is this …… really the world more than two hundred days later?
In a trance.
Absurd, ridiculous, unbelievable ……
All kinds of thoughts surfaced in Chen Dong’s mind.
Chen Daogun and Wu Chang were silent, gazing closely at Chen Dong.
Every scene on the scroll was incomparably eye-catching, countless corpses, rivers of blood, mountains of corpses piled up with bones ……
When Chen Dong first noticed the difference in Zhao Breru, when he only glanced at the scroll, he felt the boundless darkness of the painting, and now he focused his gaze again.
That gloom, as if a large invisible hand, blatantly grasped Chen Dong’s ankles and wrists, brutally and roughly dragging him directly into the boundless abyss and sinking him for eternity.
Beads of bean-sized sweat densely covered Chen Dong’s forehead.
As he gazed at the painting, Chen Dong’s breathing gradually became ragged.
“Dong’er!”
Chen Daojun’s tongue burst into spring thunder.
Chen Dong shuddered violently and woke up with a start, gratefully saying to Chen Daogun, “Many thanks, Eldest Uncle.”
“Come on, come with us to the hospital.”
Chen Daogun said coldly, adding, “I only respect you enough to inform you of this, but that is no reason for you to stop me.”
Chen Dong’s expression was awe-inspiring.
Hesitated for a moment.
He still said, “Eldest Uncle, can you hold off? After all, we have just experienced such a big event, and Zhao Broke-Ru has also been injured quite badly due to the backlash from the Eight Formation Diagram of Gods and Ghosts, and he has not even awakened yet, so let’s wait for him to wake up before asking?”
Things had already developed to this point.
It was impossible for him to cover for Zhao Breaking even if he wanted to do so again.
Chen Daogun was not Impermanence, and Impermanence he could still help Zhao Brezhongru to keep his mouth shut and cover up and pa*s.
But against Chen Daogun, no amount of cover could match Chen Daogun’s one power to break all laws!
Chen Daojun pondered for two seconds and nodded in response.
“Many thanks, Eldest Uncle.”
Chen Dong clasped his fist.
After Chen Daogun and Wu Chang had left the study, Chen Dong dropped his gaze to the painting once again.
“Will the world really turn out like this in over two hundred days?”
A heavy murmuring sound echoed through the study.
The tragic, hell-like scene in the painting dared Chen Dong to believe it.
But the words were coming from Chen Daojun’s mouth, so he had to believe them!
But witnessing everything in the painting, he still couldn’t help but feel a bad chill running through his body, and a great invisible fear was quietly arising.
Maybe …… it was really time to make Zhao Brezhun spit out some things too!
……
The latter three days.
The gentry and powers of the world seem to have fallen into silence.
From the initial stir after the incident in the east, to the collective silence at the end, it was far beyond Chen Dong and Chen Daojun’s expectation.
After all, it was overnight.
The family home was attacked, Daogun was released from prison, the Li family emerged, the Iga Ryu was destroyed, and even Chen Dong’s divorce.
Each event was enough to move the world’s giants and various powers.
But for three whole days, the wind and waves were calm!
“Eldest uncle, do you think this is considered the calm before the storm?”
In the study, Chen Dong rubbed his nose and smiled teasingly.
For three days, he had stayed at his home office, remotely directing the advancement of projects throughout the southwestern region.
This was done, firstly because he had just separated from Gu Qingying and was still a little dishevelled and frustrated, and secondly because he wanted to reduce the chances of throwing his face around as much as possible to reduce the impact.
“Yes.”
Chen Daojun pondered for a few seconds and nodded his head.
Knock, knock.
A knock sounded on the door.
Elder Long pushed the door and walked in, “Young Master, Rothschild will be arriving in the evening and has also set up a banquet to prepare, and will then invite the heads of the powerful families and giants of power gathered in the southwest region to join him for the banquet.”
“It’s been a hard few days for you guys, inform Xiao Ma, and let him take the big guys to relax and rest tonight as well.”
Chen Dong closed the information and said with a smile.
After Southwest was set, the entire Din Tai was almost in overdrive, with everyone’s workload far exceeding that of the past.
After all, the change in load from a property company in one corner of the world to suddenly expanding to manipulating the vast southwest region was horrifying.
Rothschild’s arrival was also about the creation of the “Wall Street of the East”.
Of course, there was also the intention of celebrating the success of both sides after the dust had settled.
After Elder Long left, Changeless hurriedly came in again.
Seeing Changeless with a sullen look on his face.
Chen Dong’s heart thudded.
He did not wait to ask.
Impermanence then said, “Zhao Breaker has awakened.”
Sure enough!
Chen Dong’s brows lowered.
In the past three days, Changeless had almost stayed at the hospital, waiting for Zhao Breru to wake up.
Now it had finally waited for this moment!
“Let’s go, to the hospital.”
Chen Daojun got up and headed out.
“Eldest Uncle, I’ll join you.”
Chen Dong got up and followed, seemingly guessing what Chen Daogun had in mind, and busily added, “Breaker is ultimately Xiao Ying’s life-saving benefactor, and it’s a life-saving gift to me as well.”
“Mm.”
Chen Daojun responded.
When the three arrived at the Lijin Hospital.
Zhao Broke-Ru was leaning against the hospital bed, watching the television and eating an apple.
As soon as he saw Chen Dong, Zhao Broke-Ru revealed a smile.
But when he saw Chen Daojun and Changeless behind Chen Dong, a trace of scruples flashed deep in his eyes.
Impermanence he could curl and stall, but when facing Chen Daogun, it would be hard to fight!
“Broken, is your body okay?”
Chen Dong took the lead and walked into the ward, asking with concern.
Zhao Broke-Ru’s lips were salivating and he was about to smile in response.
There was a crash ……
The painting paper unfolded in the air, sprawled across Zhao Breru’s hospital bed and slowly landed on Zhao Breru’s body.
Almost simultaneously.
Chen Daojun’s cold, stern voice rang out, “Zhao Broke-ru, you have drawn out the world after more than two hundred days, and you still don’t give an account of Xu Qingfeng’s news?”
Silence.
Inside the ward, the air suddenly froze to the point of no return.
Zhao Breru looked awe-struck, his pupils staring at the painting with tightened eyes.
Chen Daojun’s expression was cold and stern, and his fearful power was like a sword and knife, ravaging the air.
Chen Dong, who was an “outsider”, felt Chen Daogun’s power and was anxious.
“Heh ……”
In the silence, Zhao Breru suddenly pulled the corner of his mouth and shook his head disdainfully, “If you want me to give an account, I will give an account, then how much face do I …… have?”
Be D*mned!
Chen Dong’s heart snapped into his throat, was this kid Zhao Broke-Ru crazy?
The next second.
Buzz!
A strong wind cracked his ears, and a false shadow swayed violently.
Chen Daogun stood in front of the hospital bed, his right hand fell down brazenly, directly strangling Zhao Broke-Ru’s throat and pressing him down fiercely on the hospital bed.
“I don’t have the patience to bullSh*t with you, say it and live, don’t say it and be D*mned!”
The overwhelming killing intent entered the marrow of his bones.
In a flash.
Both Chen Dong and Wu Chang paled, but they didn’t dare to step forward to stop them.
“Zhao Broke-Ru, speak up!”
Chen Dong urged anxiously.
However.
Zhao Broke-Ru’s face turned red and his mouth and nose kept panting sharply, but he still could not breathe half an inch of air.
He smiled obstinately, “Kill!”
“Good!”
Chen Daojun responded.
There was a flash of lightning.
Chen Dong’s expression snapped and he instantly rushed up, “Eldest Uncle, stop!”
Whoosh!
Almost at the same time, a paper arrow wrapped in a spiral of qi visible to the naked eye emitted an ear-piercing buzzing sound and broke through the window.
Boom!
Chen Daojun grabbed the paper arrow with one hand and shook it in the air.
The paper arrow unfolded, but it was a line of big words painted in iron.
“Daojun, dog bites Lü Dongbin? The Seven Generals heir is still waiting for me, don’t hurt my broken son!”
Every word, the ultimate in rampant fury!
There were very few people in the world who could speak to Chen Daojun in such a tone!
“Xu Qingfeng?”
Chen Dong’s heart and soul trembled greatly as he hurriedly rushed to the window and looked down below.
Almost simultaneously.
Chen Daogun snorted, “Threatening me?”
