Chapter 5915: Tan Yuâs Family
âAre you Tan Yu?â Chu Feng asked.
The man was surprised. He hesitantly nodded and asked, âHow did you know?â
âZhao Pei told me,â Chu Feng replied.
Zhao Pei was the old man who revealed the whereabouts of the surviving Tan Clansmen to him, as well as their names.
âMilord, youâre acquainted with Elder Zhao?â The man nodded.
âThatâs right,â Chu Feng replied.
âI see. Iâm not related to the Tan Clan anymore, but Iâm grateful to you for relaying the news to me. Pardon me for my impoverished living conditions. I donât have anything to host the two of you. If you donât mind, would you like to have a cup of tea?â Tan Yu asked as he walked toward the medicine vat.
There was a fragrant pot of tea being brewed alongside the medicine vat. He had personally picked the tea leaves for it, and it gave off a unique medicinal scent.
Chu Feng could see that Tan Yu was a bold but polite individual despite not being a cultivator, and that gave him a positive impression of the latter. So, he and Zi Ling sat down with him and enjoyed a cup of tea.
âAre you brewing medicine for your injury?â Chu Feng asked.
âItâs an old ailment,â Tan Yu replied.
âYour medicine seems to be a painkiller, but it doesnât seem effective,â Chu Feng pointed out.
âMy ailment isnât that easy to treat. Elder Zhao was the one who introduced me to this remedy. Itâs much better than the other stuff I have tried. If not for that...â Tan Yu shook his head bitterly. âI might not have survived to this day.â
âIs that why youâre residing here?â
Chu Feng could tell that the medicine being brewed inside the medicine vat came from the nearby forest. There were many herbs inside the forest but no ferocious beasts at all, making it a suitable place for a mortal like Tan Yu to settle down.
âI owe Elder Zhao a lot. He was the one who cleared the monstrous beasts here on my behalf,â Tan Yu remarked.
âWhy donât you try my medicine instead?â Chu Feng opened his palm and gathered a powerful surge of spirit power on it.
Tan Yuâs eyes lit up. He couldnât tell how strong Chu Feng was, but he could tell that his spirit power was formidable.
The spirit power swiftly manifested into a powerful formation. Chu Feng glanced at the flames beneath the medicine vat, and a bundle of it tore off and flew into the formation.
Boom!
It was an ordinary bundle of flames, but it suddenly roared into a raging inferno upon entering Chu Fengâs formation. If not for the formationâs restriction, the inferno could have swiftly burned down the entire forest.
Chu Feng took out a couple of herbs from his Cosmos Sack and threw them into the formation. Each of the herbs emanated a faint glow, and just the scent of them raised oneâs spirit.
âIncredible!â Tan Yu remarked in awe.
He knew that ordinary world spiritists wouldnât have such sharp control of spirit power, and the medicinal herbs Chu Feng had taken out earlier were exorbitant too.
A second later, the formation dissipated, and a hundred pills emerged from the formation and floated toward Tan Yu.
âTry one,â Chu Feng said.
âThank you, milord.â
Tan Yu immediately swallowed a pill, knowing that Chu Fengâs pills were no ordinary pills. Moments later, his eyes widened.
âMilord, your pills are incredible! The pain that has been plaguing me for many years is gone, and I feel refreshed all over. I... I can sense the natural energies in the world again!â Tan Yu was so excited that he began tearing up.
âWho did it?â Chu Feng asked.
Tan Yu was taken aback. âMilord, you can see through my injury?â
A moment later, he shook his head as he realized how dumb that question was. How could the other party concoct a medicine to alleviate his condition if he couldnât see through it?
âI am on close terms with one of the Tan Clanâs elders, and I promised him to take care of the Tan Clan. I dropped by here to visit the Tan Clan, but who could have thought that such a tragedy would have befallen the Tan Clan? The Tan Clan might be gone now, but Iâd like to avenge them,â Chu Feng said.
He could tell that Tan Yu used to be a cultivator, but he regressed into a mortal due to his dantian being ripped from his body. His old ailment was a result of that too.
âIâm grateful for your kind sentiments, milord. However, our lineage has already been evicted from the Tan Clan and canât be considered as Tan Clansmen anymore,â Tan Yu replied.
âIf I think you are, you are,â Chu Feng replied.
Tan Yu stared at Chu Feng in a daze. He pressed his lips together, feeling moved. He had tasted the warmth and coldness of the world before. He was already thankful that a stranger as strong as Chu Feng was willing to lend him a helping hand; it was a godsend that the other party was willing to avenge him.
He realized this might be his only chance to exact vengeance, but in the end, he still shook his head. âMilord, itâs rare to find anyone as kind as you. I am grateful for your kind sentiments, but I donât want to implicate others.
âIs it a regional powerhouse?â Chu Feng figured that the one who landed Tan Yu in his current plight was no ordinary person, or else Tan Yu wouldnât have been so intimidated.
âMm.â Tan Yu nodded.
âWho is it?â Chu Feng asked.
âThe Sunmoon Sect.â
âThe Sunmoon Sect? I have never heard of them. How strong is their strongest expert?â
âTheir sect master should be at seventh rank Half-God, but they have grand elders too. Iâm not sure how strong they are, but rumor has it that they are near pinnacle Half-God level.â
âYou were engrossed in my spirit power earlier. Didnât you sense anything from it?â
âSense anything?â Tan Yu was initially confused, but he quickly understood the underlying meaning behind those words, and his eyes lit up in excitement. âMilord, you can deal with pinnacle Half-God level cultivators?â
âI should be able to deal with pinnacle Half-Gods,â Chu Feng confirmed.
Tan Yu kneeled on the floor and began kowtowing hard against the ground, âMilord, please avenge me!â
âCalm down. Tell me the story first.â Chu Feng supported Tan Yu to his feet.
Through Tan Yuâs recount, Chu Feng swiftly grasped the situation.
Tan Yuâs grandfather was acquainted with Zhao Pei.
Unfortunately, Tan Yuâs grandfather committed a severe mistake that led to his family being evicted from the Tan Clan, and they ended up migrating to this realm. Zhao Pei continued to interact with Tan Yuâs grandfather, unbeknownst to the Tan Clan, so his family remained close to him.
