The Rebirth of the Legendary King
Do You Want to get kicked out of here?
"I heard from the store owner, that person was a young man. It looks like he's from the Star Academy, because there's a badge on his shirt" the person in charge said.
"What is the name of the young man?" zhuo Shiaonian asked with sparkling eyes. Of course because he wanted to recruit that person into his family.
The Cheng Family's in charge shook his head, "I don't know."
Hearing this, the elder beside Zhuo Shiaonian said in a soft voice, "This Cheng Lan is very cunning. This is the territory of the Cheng Family. There's no way they're not investigating. Obviously if they don't want us to know so we can't recruit that guy."
Zhuo Shiaonian nodded, "Chairman, ask someone to investigate. If we can find that person, we can compete with the Chen Family and the Bai Family in the stone gambling competition."
The elder nodded and carried out the task.
Not only Zhuo Shiaonian, Cheng Rui also met Cheng Lan for questioning, "Give me information about that person. Next I'll find it myself."
Hearing Cheng Rui's remark, Cheng Lan shook her head, "Young Miss, instead I don't want to tell you, but I really don't have any information about that person. When I told the guard to go to the shopkeeper, the shopkeeper said he only knew the butler from the Gao Family."
Cheng Rui smiled faintly, "Interesting ... do you already know who the Chen Family sent to investigate that person?"
"No," Cheng Lan replied bowing respectfully.
Now Cheng Rui chuckled, "It's getting interesting."
Suddenly, Bai Chengsi greeted Cheng Rui respectfully, "Miss Cheng."
Bai Chengsi did not dare to face Cheng Rui. Although Cheng Rui looked friendly, he knew his strength was on par with Bai Xiaoqi's. After all he had been warned not to harass Cheng Rui. Even Zhuo Shiaonian could not compare to him.
Cheng Rui smiled faintly. He looked towards Bai Chengsi's gaze last time. But it turned out that he saw Jun Ye Li. He narrowed when he saw the person who was talking to Jun Ye Li.
"You know him?" ask Cheng Rui.
Bai Chengsi saw that Cheng Rui was referring to Ling. He said, "Not really."
"So Cheng Lan said that the one who found the level seven jade was the one who was with Gao Yu Xi. Could it be him?" tanya Cheng Rui stared fixedly at Ling. He was deep in his mind.
At this moment, Ling felt his gaze. As he raised his eyes and glanced, instantly their gazes met.
Cheng Rui frowned. He felt familiar with this look.
Bai Chengsi only realized that what Cheng Rui meant was Ling. So, he chuckled because he felt this was a joke.
Cheng Rui withdrew his gaze. He smiled faintly, "Is there anything funny?"
"No, Miss Cheng. If you're looking for someone, don't expect it to be him, okay? He was indeed a freshman at the academy, but he was from Shadow City. He's quite sly. Look, he quickly got along with the Gao Family," Bai Chengsi explained.

As everyone was busy searching for the person who found the level seven jade, here Ling had a problem.
The group of people who had followed them since then, now confronted them, "Young Master Gao, let us bring your friend. This year he will be the rock gambling expert of our family."
Ling looked up to see the person who was so bold as to force him. Then he grinned, his eyes filled with arrogance, "Sorry, I refused."
The person's expression changed, "You refuse? Don't you know who our master is? How dare you refuse! Do you want to get kicked out of here?"
Gao Yu Xi clearly recognized that person, "Sorry Young Master Zhuo, he just accidentally found that level seven jade."
"I don't care how you do it. Since you found the stone, then you should come with me. If not, don't expect to be able to live quietly!" said Young Master Zhuo with a slight disdainful smile.
As Gao Yu Xi saw Liam was about to make a move, he immediately pulled Liam back. He knew Liam was angry.
"You came to our family no?!" ask Young Master Zhuo.
"No," Ling replied firmly.
"That's fine," Young Master Zhuo looked at Ling coldly. Then he left.
Seeing him leave, Gao Yu Xi looked at Ling and smiled bitterly, "You shouldn't just answer. To stop him would be very troublesome."
He blamed himself for not warning Ling in the first place. Although the Gao Family will be fine, but the strength here remains complicated. Although the Zhuo Family was also not a large family, but with the existence of Zhuo Shiaonian, they became respected.
"Don't worry. They won't do anything right now" Ling replied casually.
Gao Yu Xi smiled forcedly. He no longer knew how to tell Ling. After he thought for a moment, he said, "You guys go back to the academy first. I'm going to see the elder."
After taking a look here, Ling also still had affairs with Bo Xue Ning. He simply replied, "All right."
After Gao Yu Xi left, Jun Ye Li looked at Ling and whispered, "Ling, this is not your territory. Here has its own law. It seemed like Young Master Zhuo was not an indiscriminate person."
Did he not see if Zhuo Shiaonian alone did not dare to touch him?

The Gao Family Residence.
Gao Yu Xi arrived at his house and immediately met the head of the family. He told me the whole incident at the stone gambling event.
"Are you talking about that genius new student?" ask the head of the Gao family.
"Yes, Dad. Help him and talk to the Zhuo Family, ", said Gao Yu Xi.
"Cousin, have you forgotten who the Zhuo Family is? If Young Master Zhuo is after someone, why should you interfere? Don't you need any more potions?" Uncle Gao Yu Xi said sarcastically.
Gao Yu Xi did not reply and just looked at her father.
Hearing this, the family head thought for a moment and said, "I'll talk to the Zhuo Family later."
Uncle Gao Yu Xi's face turned grim, "Have you forgotten who the Zhuo Family is? You sacrificed our entire family for that new, obscure student?"
The elder beside him also agreed, "He said if the new disciple managed to find a level seven jade slip. But, even people from the Chen Family were unable to do that. How can you believe his words?"
Zhuo Shiaonian had boundless talent and a mysterious background. While the new disciple was a genius who had no one's support. He's just trash. It should be easy between the two of them who to choose.
Gao Yu Xi's father thought for a moment before calling Young Master Zhuo.
The moment Young Master Zhuo received a call from him, his own father had also warned him. This made him a little angry. If he can't touch Ling, can't he touch the people around him?
He took the information documents sent to him. His eyes were fixed on one name, "Jun Ye Li" who was from the opposite city.
However, before he acted, he called Zhuo Shiaonian. Although he was not afraid of Gao Yu Xi or Ling, he still appreciated Zhuo Shiaonian.

Right now Zhuo Shiaonian was chatting with Cheng Rui. Suddenly, Cheng Rui came looking for her at night. Although he was arrogant, but Zhuo Shiaonian did not dare to let his guard down in front of the Cheng Family. He also accepted Cheng Rui.
As he heard Young Master Zhuo's question delivered by his servant, he said with a small laugh, "Tell him I don't know the new disciple."
As he spoke, a cold glint appeared in his eyes.
"I see Miss Zhuo Shiaonian still has some business. Then I won't bother you," Cheng Rui said. He stood up and smiled.
Zhuo Shiaonian stood up and escorted Cheng Rui.
When Cheng Rui had already left, he sat down and thought.
"Miss, what's with this Cheng Ling? Is he very strong?" ask the guard next to him. He was the one who went with Zhuo Shiaonian to Shadow City. So, he knew Ling very well.
Zhuo Shiaonian chuckled, "It's not him who is very strong, but his background. Do you dare offend such a person?"
The guard replied with disdain, "He can only rely on people, but in truth it is meaningless. He had just come abroad and was already very arrogant. Who does not know the God Potion Association here? He dared offend us? Cih, he'll be ruined in a few days."
Zhuo Shiaonian sipped his tea and said, "Tell Chen Kai a bit about this matter."
In Shadow City, Zhuo Shiaonian could do nothing, but this was overseas.

Outside the door, Cheng Rui got into the car. Her graceful face looked confused.
"Miss, how did it go?" asked Cheng Lan who was driving.
As Cheng Rui's trusted servant, he actually knew the reason Cheng Rui asked Zhuo Shiaonian tonight.
Cheng Rui looked out the car window and shook his head.
Actually, he was looking for Zhuo Shiaonian to gather some information. He wanted to ask if Zhuo Shiaonian had sent someone to the Chen Family.
Yes, Cheng Rui was the one who sneaked with Ling into the Chen Family that night. However, he did not know if it was Ling. So, he suspected Zhuo Shiaonian.
However, from Zhuo Shiaonian's reaction when asked, it seemed that he did not show any suspicious gestures.
Is it not him?
Cheng Rui massaged his temple feeling dizzy.
