護花近衛 - 第728章 愛心早餐 - 翰墨軒

So Chen Yuxuan could now only rely on himself. If he could break through to the Mystic Rank before the old man passed away, then the Chen family could at the very least be guaranteed a hundred years of standing! But was breaking through to the Mystic Rank even possible?

Qiu Lingshan was the outstanding talent of this generation, yet she had only just advanced to the late Yellow Rank. The Song family, however, had deep foundations: though the Song patriarch was only at the peak of the late Yellow Rank, the Song matriarch was already a mid Mystic Rank internal-arts expert!

In fact, the Song family's internal-energy cultivation method was better suited to women. Among the Song family's younger generation, Qiu Lingshan's brother had only early Yellow Rank strength, while Qiu Lingshan's younger sister had actually already reached the early Yellow Rank as well!

A marriage alliance with Qiu Lingshan was out of the question now. Chen Yuxuan wanted to see just how formidable this remarkable figure Qiu Lingshan spoke of really was. If the Song family could win over such a powerful ally, then it was not impossible that the Song family's momentum would press directly upon the Yu family!

Wei Zhao arrived at the door of the hospital room and pushed it open without ceremony. Seeing Qiu Lingshan and Chen Yuxuan standing in the room's reception area, he could not help but pause slightly. Chen Yuxuan was here too?

And when Chen Yuxuan saw that the person entering was actually Wei Zhao, the expression on his face likewise froze. Why had Instructor Eagle come?

But in the next instant, Chen Yuxuan worked it out: could it be that the formidable expert Qiu Lingshan had spoken of was none other than Wei Zhao!?

With that, the pieces fell into place for Chen Yuxuan. Among the younger generation, who else could possess such strength but Wei Zhao? If Wei Zhao could help him break through to the Yellow Rank, then why couldn't he help Qiu Lingshan break through as well?

It was just that Chen Yuxuan had always revered Wei Zhao as a lofty instructor from on high, and had never once regarded him as a peer! In Chen Yuxuan's eyes, Wei Zhao was already a being akin to a deity! So when Chen Yuxuan thought of the outstanding talents of the younger generation, he had never even placed Wei Zhao on the same plane of consideration!

Now, seeing Wei Zhao here, Chen Yuxuan suddenly understood. Of course — Wei Zhao was even younger than himself, so naturally he was the outstanding talent of the younger generation!

Wei Zhao did not know how the little Song girl had explained things to Chen Yuxuan, so seeing Chen Yuxuan there caused him no embarrassment. He nodded to him and said, "Brother Yutian, you're here too."

Chen Yuxuan could only answer with a bitter smile. "I'm one of the principal investigators on this case as well, so I'm here too."

Chen Yuxuan did not say anything about coming to see what the man Qiu Lingshan liked was really like — because he did not need to look! Losing to Wei Zhao, he was utterly convinced. Chen Yuxuan did not even have the slightest thought of challenging him; give him another hundred years and it would still be impossible to surpass Wei Zhao!

If Qiu Lingshan really did end up with Wei Zhao, then it would be a fine ending after all, and the Song family would rise because of it! No one knew Wei Zhao's strength and marvels better than Chen Yuxuan. He believed Qiu Lingshan had seen this too, and that was why she had taken the initiative to pursue Wei Zhao.

Otherwise, with Qiu Lingshan's forceful temperament, if the man had not been so far stronger than her, why would she have lowered herself to pursue him so actively? She even cooked for him, and her tone on the phone was frighteningly gentle!

Only Wei Zhao was worthy of that!
