Chapter 2216 - Your surname is Helian, your root is in the east.
Dragon-Marked War God
Your surname is Helian, your root is in the east.
âYou⦠is your brain full of sh*t? Old Gang Tou is one of the best alchemists in this area and had been helping others concoct countless pills in the past. Why would he seek such an unwarranted reputation? â
Some of them who were observing from the shadow had some opinions. Some felt that Old Gang Tou was eyeing on the position of the Village Chief and orchestrated this âplayâ, to eliminate all threats thoroughly, killing off the father and son.
Resolute cold-blooded murder! This child will certainly be something big in the future.?Old Gang Tou looked at Jiang Chen with complicated feelings and slightly nodded his head. He did not care how others think of him but he absolutely would not allow others to talk behind his back. But with the situation at hand, he was forced or destined to be at the front of the village. Plus, six people from the Profound Feng Sect had died here, the future of the village will surely be not peaceful.
âThis is a world of the survival of the fittest. The law of the jungle. If you donât kill them, they will kill you. Youâll gradually be disqualified from the stage of the Divine World if youâre merciful towards your enemy.â Ling Yun looked at Jiang Chen and said.
âI only kill people who deserve to be dead.â
âBig brother. Itâs great that youâre alright. Iâll help you kill those people if youâre tired of it. I will not let you be harmed if there is someone threatening you.â
Yue Er looked at Jiang Chen with firm sparkling eyes. But Old Gang Tou could only sigh while shaking his head bitterly.
âBig brother will protect you. Your pair of hands are so pretty, how could it be used to kill?â Jiang Chen rubbed Yue Erâs petite head and said with a smile.
âBut Iâm worried about Big Brother getting bullied in the future. Yue Er doesnât want to see Big Brother getting hurt.â Yue Er murmured with her head down.
âIâll guarantee you that no one will be able to bully this Big Brother in the future.â
âThen, can I? Hehe.â Yue Er smiled and stuck her tongue out.
She was as pure and cute as always. But there was a sense of responsibility and destiny in her heart.
âHaih, itâs not good to stay here any longer. Leave now, Jiang Chen. Youâve killed the disciples of Profound Feng Sect. They will surely come and investigate in a short while. At that moment, when True God experts come, itâll be hard for you to leave.â Old Gang Tou said seriously.
âYeah, Iâll leave immediately, I will not trouble the people of the village anymore.â
Jiang Chen knew the people of the village would be in trouble if he stayed any longer. But Old Gang Tou would be punished if he left.
âRest assured. I still have quite a reputation in these parts. Nobody will push the blame on me. Hehe.â Old Gang Tou saw through Jiang Chenâs worry and said.
âVery well, Iâll leave right away. This one shall never forget the gratitude that senior has bestowed. I shall take my leave now.â Jiang Chen said while clasping his fist.
Jiang Chen was immensely grateful towards Old Gang Touâs guidance and teaching.
âBig Brother, please donât go.â Yue Er was said sadly, softening Jiang Chenâs steel heart as he saw her.
âWith your approval, I would like to take Yue Er to enter my sect. I will bring her there two months later. For now, sheâll stay with me while Iâll follow Jiang Chen.â Ling Yun said.
Old Gang Tou looked at Jiang Chen and then looked at Ling Yun and Yue Er. He then sighed and nodded.
âBut⦠?Grandpa⦠I donât want to leave you, either.â Yue Er became conflicted with the two options.
âA great man can venture across the world, so as women. ?Follow the Big Sister to her sect. Remember, follow her. â Old Gang Tou exhorted.
Yue Er jumped into Grandpaâs grasp and cried.
âRemember this: The heavens can change, the sun and moon can be the witness. Great winds blow from the edge of the heavens, the stars of the skies change its position. My heart is like the flying crane in the sky, flying to anywhere it wants. My heart is like a bright lamp that could stabilise the flow of time.â
Old Gang Tou whispered in her ears. Jiang Chen and Ling Yun frowned, as they couldnât understand the meaning of it.
âGrandpa, I donât understand.â Yue Er shook her head.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
âItâs okay to not understand. Youâll understand it⦠one day⦠Remember, your surname is Helian, your root is in the east.â Old Gang Tou smiled and rubbed Yue Erâs little head, exhibiting reluctance and love.
Jiang Chen didnât understand. But Ling Yunâs expression suddenly changed as surges of waves swept through her heart.
âHelian⦠East⦠â Ling Yun murmured while her gaze became incomparably serious.
âSenior, rest assured. I will certainly not let you down and will not disappoint Yue Er.â
Jiang Chen was slightly moved by Ling Yunâs words.
This lady is usually arrogant, yet she has a shred of respect towards the weak old man??It had made Jiang Chen somewhat confused.
âPlease.â Old Gang Tou nodded, as if a wish of his has been fulfilled.â
âLetâs go. Yue Er.â
Jiang Chen knew that Ling ?Yun would not leave him and Yue Er will follow Ling Yun back to her sect to cultivate. Hence, at this moment, he had to lead two women out of the place.
âRemember what Grandpa said. One day, youâll understand. Listen to what big sister says.â Old Gang Tou said while waving goodbye.
âGrandpa, Grandpaâ¦â Yue Er was still a 10 year-old girl. This was her first time leaving her only family member, her grandfather. She cried like there was no tomorrow.
Old Gang Tou once again sat down beside the ancient tree that was beside the village. He lit up a smoke and slight anxiety could be seen from the edge of his lips.?Haih, I wonder if that girl understands my intention. She must take Yue Er away, she cannot be with Jiang Chen.?
âThe Heavenly Evil Lone Star is fated to be lonely throughout their lives. Countless calamity brought by affection in countless reincarnation. Such a person is fated to have extraordinary life and the ones beside him will not have a good end.â
Old Gang Tou looked at the stars above. The Big Dipper was getting dimmer and dimmer. But the Heavenly Evil Lone Star is getting brighter and brighter. As if it was a hungry wolf devouring everything under the heavens while descending upon the world.
âDo you know the seniorâs background?â Jiang Chen asked as he held onto Yue Erâs hand.
âWhat does it have to do with you?â Ling Yun replied palely.
âBah, consider me not asking.â
âYeah.â
âBig Brother, Big Sister, will Grandpa be okay?â
Even though Yue Er was young, she was quite considerate. Especially towards her grandpa that she had lived for her whole life. How could she not have any attachment? Even if she were to leave with Ling Yun and Jiang Chen.
âRest assured. Grandpa will be alright.â Jiang Chen rubbed against Yue Erâs little head and said with a smile.
But deep within his heart, he too was worried about Old Gang Touâs safety. He hopes that what Old Gang Tou said was true.
âWhere are we going now?â Jiang Chen asked as he was clueless about the Divine World.
âThis is the boundary of the Deer Mourn Mountain and the Profound Feng Sect is a medium sect in this area. Letâs go to the eastern boundary, it is where the Profound Feng Sect is situated.â Ling Yun said.
âGoing to the domain of the Profound Feng Sect? Hehe, that is what Iâm thinking of.â
Jiang Chenâs eyes squinted.?Profound Feng Sect, I, Jiang Chen, have come. I shall see for myself what this Profound Feng Sect is. By understanding thy enemy only could one win the battle perfectly!
