Chapter 2807 The Golden Mean
When the Qiu family encountered a crisis, they specially called Qiu Lingsu back from the academy.
Even so, they were still in danger twice, thanks to the friendship with Jiang Chen, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous.
Shuiyue City is the number one city in the Southern Region.
The Qiu family is one of the four major families.
Jiang Chen was very curious about what happened during this.
After a while, he saw Qiu Lingsu's father Qiu Congfeng in the atrium of his residence.
A middle-aged man with an extraordinary bearing, with a white face and beardless, giving people an easy-going feeling.
Seeing Jiang Chen, he thanked him very sincerely, and promised that this kindness will never be forgotten by the Qiu family.
"Lingsu is my friend, I should help her."
Jiang Chen didn't want to make things complicated, so he said so.
Qiu Lingsu, who followed, smiled slightly.
Seeing her daughter like this, Qiu Congfeng naturally thought of that.
"That's really a blessing for my little girl, and it's also a blessing for my Qiu family."
Qiu Congfeng said solemnly: "I have something important to do, please help me."
"What's the matter?" Jiang Chen asked.
Qiu Congfeng didn't inform immediately, but signaled to Tie Donglai, and the latter opened the formation, keeping several people isolated from the outside world to prevent others from eavesdropping.
"Shuiyue City was not originally called this name. It was originally called Xingsheng City. It was not Shuiyue Palace that ruled the Southern Territory back then, but the Xingsheng."
"The rise of one side means the weakening of the other side."
"Star Sacred City was captured by Shuiyue Divine Palace, and all forces in the city surrendered and surrendered."
"Our Qiu family is no exception."
"To be honest, our Qiu family used to be the confidant of that Xingsheng."
Qiu Congfeng talked about a secret history of the Southern Region.
And once the last few words are spread, it will bring a lot of disaster.
He told Jiang Chen that an outsider was either an idiot or had other plans.
Jiang Chen naturally thought it was the latter.
"Now, the Palace Master of Water Moon Palace is about to be rebuilt, and the new Palace Master is bound to be not as powerful as when he was at his peak. The old Xingsheng Department intends to overthrow Water Moon Palace at that time."
Qiu Congfeng reveals an amazing secret.
"So it's Xingsheng's old department who dealt with me?" Qiu Lingsu guessed.
"Maybe, maybe not."
Qiu Congfeng said helplessly: "It may be that the old department of Xingsheng intends to take you to blackmail me, or it may be that the Shuiyue Palace intends to take you to contain me."
Jiang Chen said: "May I ask Patriarch Qiu whether he intends to continue to support Shuiyue Divine Palace, or to overthrow them?"
That's the key.
"I don't want to."
Qiu Congfeng smiled wryly and said, "We don't want to make any choices. We have already belonged to the Yushui Moon God Palace. No matter what decision we make now, we will be criticized by thousands of people."
"So they took your daughter and forced you to make a choice." Jiang Chen said.
Qiu Congfeng's expression changed, and he said, "So I hope you can protect Lingsu until the day when Palace Master Shuiyue takes over."
"why me?"
"I can trust a lot of people in the Qiu family."
As Qiu Congfeng said, he glanced at Tie Donglai, "But at this critical time, the Qiu family is in short supply of manpower, and I can't trust outsiders. You have seen those disciples just now."
"Does the Qiu family have to wait until the conflict between Shuiyueshen Palace and Xingsheng's old department is resolved?" Jiang Chen asked.
"Yes, the current Qiu family pursues the golden mean."
"That's also the day when the Palace Master will change, and I happen to be worried about where to go. If there is such a beautiful job, of course I won't refuse it." Jiang Chen said.
Qiu Lingsu next to him looked coy and coy thinking that he would spend day and night with him in the next month.
"Young Master Lao." Qiu Cong said.
For this reason, Jiang Chen stayed at Qiu's house, and arranged to enter Qiu Lingsu's courtyard.
This is also to better protect Qiu Lingsu's safety.
"Patriarch Qiu is at the peak of a demigod, but I can feel the aura belonging to the true god in the depths of the Qiu family."
Jiang Chen recalled what Qiu Congfeng said, curled his lips, "The way of the mean? Go lie to ghosts!"
Qiu Congfeng must not have told the truth, which is inevitable, after all, it was the first time we met.
Because it doesn't have much to do with him, I don't bother to delve into it.
"Jiang Chen, you won't be from Xingsheng's old department, right?"
Qiu Lingsu said mysteriously.
"Why do you say that?"
"Look, your origin is mysterious, your strength is powerful, and you went there on the day when the power of the Shuiyue Divine Palace changed, isn't it very suitable?" Qiu Lingsu analyzed.
"This speculation is not bad, it is obvious and logical." Jiang Chen nodded.
If he didn't know how he came to this world, he would never have thought of it in his dreams.
"My father must be able to guess it, and let you protect me, which means that my father is still in the old department of Xingsheng." Qiu Lingsu said.
"Judging from your tone, it seems that you also yearn for Xingsheng."
"of course."
Qiu Lingsu didn't shy away from the benefactor who saved her twice in a row, "When the Water Moon God Palace rose, Xingsheng was a legend in the Southern Region, the object of yearning for countless people, and he strongly rejected the Star Alliance."
"oh?"
The last sentence aroused Jiang Chen's interest.
So, he learned about the star saint's deeds from Qiu Lingsu.
"It looks like me."
After listening, Jiang Chen said sincerely.
"If you are about the same age, it is indeed quite similar, but there is one thing that is different, that is, he has fallen and you are still alive."
"No, it's all the same, I also fell."
Jiang Chen smiled wryly and said: "Those who fight against the general trend will always end badly."
"Heroes are often like this," Qiu Lingsu said.
hero!
These two words have more weight than the strong.
Even a true god who covers the sky with one hand, people will only call him a strong, powerful, and immortal.
However, the word hero is rarely used.
Because in a situation where interests are constantly being fought, everyone is for themselves, no matter how strong they are, they cannot be called heroes.
"You want your father to stand on the side of Xingsheng's old department?" Jiang Chen asked curiously.
Qiu Lingsu put her mouth close to Jiang Chen's ear, and said, "Everyone in the Southern Territory has hope in their hearts."
After finishing speaking, she ran away in a hurry, blushing all over her face.
"Ah."
Jiang Chen smiled slightly, looked at Qiu Lingsu's back, "I hope you won't be disappointed."
Qiu Lingsu thought that her father was on the side of Xingsheng's old department and said nothing on the surface, so she was very relieved.
Jiang Chen, who had experienced so much, felt that there was something strange about it.
It's still the same sentence, it's none of your business.
In the next few days, Qiu Lingsu knew that she was in a dangerous situation, so she was very sensible and didn't go out, and stayed at home all the time.
However, when she didn't go out, someone came to her door.
"Okay, I haven't seen any movement from you after coming back for so many days. It turns out that there is a beautiful man hiding at home."
An extremely pleasant voice sounded from outside the door.
They came directly to the inner courtyard without being notified. During this extraordinary period, the person who came must be someone who made the Qiu family feel very at ease.
"Lingguang, why are you in the city?"
Qiu Lingsu was bored at home for a few days, and when her friends came to her door, her eyes sparkled.
"I heard that you brought back a boy. I came here to see it. I didn't expect it to be true."
