Zheng Da Feng’s eyes were filled with even more confusion, even a hint of disbelief.
Huh? The poor ghost Chen Ping An has a brother?
Did that pair of unfortunate lovers have two children?
Zheng Da Feng doubted, “Real brother? Impossible, you are lying to me.”
Chen Sui Nian chuckled, but said nothing more.
Chen Sui Nian stopped discussing this topic and inquired about Zheng Da Feng’s name, “So, brother, what is your name?”
Zheng Da Feng gave his name, “Zheng Da Feng!”
Chen Sui Nian’s tone was very relaxed.
He asked with a smile, “Oh! Then brother Da Feng, do you know where Chen Ping An lives?”
Zheng Da Feng’s expression was indifferent, his voice tinged with caution, “Why should I tell you where Chen Ping An lives? What if you are not his brother, but his enemy? Then wouldn’t I have caused the death of a man?”
Zheng Da Feng did not have a good relationship with Chen Ping An, but he would never help outsiders harm him.
Chen Sui Nian seemed to understand Zheng Da Feng’s worries, and said with a smile, “Brother Da Feng, do you think I need to harm him? Neither possibility seems necessary, right?”
Zheng Da Feng pondered, “Yes, no one would deliberately target a ‘peasant’ with no magical artifacts and no money.”
Therefore, Zheng Da Feng said, “You really came to recognize your kin? You are truly Chen Ping An’s older brother?”
Chen Sui Nian nodded with a smile, “Of course! So brother Da Feng, can you tell me where Chen Ping An’s home is?”
“Look, walk straight in this direction, then turn right, and you’ll be close. Your brother lives in Mud Bottle Alley, if you really can’t find it, just ask someone, everyone in this town knows it.”
Zheng Da Feng pointed ahead.
Chen Sui Nian nodded with a smile, said thank you, and then continued to walk towards Mud Bottle Alley at his leisurely pace.
“But I want to make it clear, if anything happens to Chen Ping An, I’ll consider it your doing!”
Chen Sui Nian, without turning around, said, “Of course!”
Zheng Da Feng was now full of questions.
Something is wrong, very, very wrong.
That young man is definitely a cultivator from the mountains, although I didn’t sense him clearly just now, his aura of a celestial being is impossible for a mortal.
An Eighth Realm martial artist like myself, and I still couldn’t sense his cultivation in this situation, that alone speaks volumes.
The youth neither paid “money,” nor is he a mortal, then why didn’t the Saint Qi Jing Chun, who is stationed here, stop him?
Strength? Background?
I was so close to him just now, unless he has some special divine ability, or his cultivation is higher than mine.
But in this world, how can he use divine abilities?
But he is only twenty years old, how could his cultivation be higher than mine?
So where did this youth come from?
If he is truly Chen Ping An’s “older brother,” then this joke has gone too far!
That pair of wronged lovers, the unfortunate Chen Ping An, meeting this youth, Zheng Da Feng felt that something big would definitely happen.
Zheng Da Feng watched Chen Sui Nian walk away, his eyes narrowed, his thoughts churning.
In the distance, Chen Sui Nian smiled slightly, it seems little Ping An is doing well, his relationships are good, and the people in the village are kind.
Earlier, Chen Sui Nian just wanted to test a little, how Chen Ping An was doing in the village, how his relationships were, and now it seems, he is definitely doing well!
As for where Chen Ping An lived, he knew it all along, as a cultivator, who wouldn’t know a little bit of arithmetic?
Chen Sui Nian arrived at Mud Bottle Alley, he looked at several adjacent houses, and then towards the innermost and most secluded house!
Chen Ping An’s house is located in Mud Bottle Alley, in the most secluded corner of the town.
Chen Sui Nian gently pushed open the wooden gate of Chen Ping An’s courtyard and walked in.
The courtyard’s wooden gate was full of mottled mildew, it looked weather-beaten.
The interior layout of the courtyard was simple and plain, a dilapidated house directly in front of the entrance.
On the far side of the courtyard, there was a water jar that had grown many moss, a broken bowl and a ladle scattered around the water jar, which looked particularly old.
The roof of the dilapidated hut was covered in thick moss, clearly having not been repaired for many years.
Chen Sui Nian frowned slightly, is this a side courtyard?
The entire courtyard looked very dilapidated, with only a water jar and nothing else, forming a sharp contrast with the other courtyards and houses.
Chen Sui Nian nodded, yes, this must be a side courtyard, the main courtyard must be elsewhere, otherwise why would this place be so dilapidated, lacking furnishings and equipment?
Chen Sui Nian believed this!
After Chen Sui Nian stepped into the courtyard, he smelled a strong scent of blood.
Chen Sui Nian was puzzled, hm? Didn’t I just arrive to recognize my kin, and something big happened already?
So he pushed open the door of the hut and walked into the dilapidated hut, the scene inside the hut was clear at a glance.
The interior of the hut was dimly lit, the furniture was simple, one could say there was basically no furniture, but it was arranged neatly.
But there wasn’t even a mouse hole in the corner.
In the dim light, one could see a dilapidated wooden bed, with a young woman in black clothes sitting cross-legged on it, her complexion pale.
A young Taoist priest sat on a small stool, his face full of misery.
The smell of blood must have come from the woman in black clothes, it was clear that she had suffered severe injuries.
Chen Sui Nian saw that it wasn’t his younger brother who was in trouble, and his tightly furrowed brows relaxed slightly.
The young Taoist priest was staring at the woman in black clothes sitting cross-legged on the bed, his heart filled with anger towards those two dogs from the Great Sui Dynasty.
Damn Great Sui Gao family, Wu old dog, you two wait for me, this karmic debt isn’t over yet.
After I finish my business, I’ll leave this world, and then we’ll settle the score.
If you sincerely apologize and listen to my words, I will forgive you, just a “small” compensation fee, but if you don’t admit your fault, or you just make excuses, I still know a little bit about martial arts!
The young Taoist priest was thinking about how to deal with the Great Sui Gao family, who had caused him to bear such a heavy karmic debt, when he suddenly heard the sound of someone pushing open the door.
Although his cultivation was severely suppressed in this world, at least half of the town was within his perception.
Hm! Who? Who can hide from my perception, silently pass through the courtyard gate, and come behind me?
The young Taoist priest, with a hint of doubt, turned to look at the door.
The woman in black also looked towards the hut’s doorway with doubt.
The young Taoist priest saw a figure in white, hm? This face is so familiar.
Wait…
Lu Chen’s pupils shrank suddenly, his heartbeat and breathing quickened, Holy crap, why did this old man come here?
Did my big business get exposed?
In the eyes of the woman in black, she only saw a handsome young man.
The young man’s appearance was indeed good, quite fair, but the smile at the corners of his mouth gave him a touch of cynicism.
Chen Sui Nian also looked at the woman in black, her appearance was majestic, but because of her injuries, she had lost some of her spirit and gained a touch of weakness.
He then turned to look at the young Taoist priest beside him.
Hm?
But when he saw the young Taoist priest, his eyebrows twitched slightly, his mouth curled into a half-smile.
“Yo, this great world is really small, I would never have thought that I would encounter an old acquaintance in a broken hut in the most secluded alley of a tiny town in a tucked-away corner of a small kingdom in a little world on the smallest continent in the vast expanse of the Hao Ran Nine Realms!”
Chen Sui Nian’s voice was full of surprise, and seemed to carry a hint of anger.
This young man seemed to be an old friend of this young Taoist priest who was unfathomable and of mysterious origin?
The young Taoist priest cracked a smile, somewhat awkwardly, “Hahahahahaha, it’s really a coincidence huh… …”
Chen Sui Nian’s eyebrows rose slightly, he asked with a smile, “Oh, really? We are really destined, I bumped into you! Let me have a good look at my dear Lu Chen, the headmaster, have you lost weight?”
Chen Sui Nian strode towards Lu Chen, extended his five fingers, ready to grab Lu Chen.
