Yin Tian looked at his master in utter astonishnt, never having anticipated that his master would utter such words.
"Cough cough..."
The master coughed dryly twice, "When I was young and reckless, I didn’t know restraint and offended many people..."
Yin Tian: "..."
"All right, we are truly leaving this ti. The path before you still requires you to walk it alone."
The master patted Yin Tian’s shoulder again, "Rember my words, only when you are powerful enough will you have the right to know the truth."
Yin Tian slowly nodded.
"Hahaha... Let’s go!"
The master let out a hearty laugh, taking the four mistresses and Yu Wentian with him as they left the hospital room.
Soon, only Yin Tian and Su Qinwei and a few other girls were left in the hospital room.
"Sigh..."
Yin Tian let out a sigh and lay back down on the hospital bed.
He had only t with his master in a hurry, and although his master had answered so of the doubts in his heart, larger questions had risen to take their place.
What kind of family does his own mother co from?
His master had been searching for so long and yet, hadn’t found them?
And his father, what was the deal with him?
Why did everyone, whether it was his master or Yu Mingmiao’s mother, Mrs. Ling, always look so secretive when his father was brought up, unwilling to discuss it further?
"Forget it... I won’t think about it anymore..."
Yin Tian let out a breath and murmured to himself.
"So, what do we do next?"
Xia Nianbing looked at Yin Tian and asked softly, "Sir Li’s body is still in the morgue, and he has neither a spouse nor offspring."
Yin Tian suddenly sat up.
Right!
There was still unfinished business regarding Sir Li!
He turned his head to look at Su Qinwei and said softly, "Reserve the finest coffin available, the price doesn’t matter, but it must be done promptly."
"Then arrange with the funeral ho; we must give Sir Li a dignified send-off."
"Purchase a gravesite for him; I will personally assess the Feng Shui."
As Yin Tian was speaking, a voice suddenly ca from outside the hospital room, "No need..."
Yin Tian was startled and looked toward the door, where he saw Sir Niu walking in.
Sir Niu was dressed in black with a black armband, "Li ntioned it to before, that when he died, he wanted to be buried in a place on the mountain where he could see the entire Imperial Capital."
"I’ve already bought the coffin, and I also picked out the gravesite. The Feng Shui Master said there’s no problem; it’s a pri Feng Shui site. Tomorrow, we’ll send him off."
"He’s been in the Imperial Capital for sixty years, and in death, he has not left this place."
Yin Tian opened his mouth but ultimately said nothing...
The next morning.
The funeral procession began to set out.
Yin Tian held Sir Li’s portrait, leading the way at the front of the procession.
Even though he was neither kin nor kith to Sir Li, the latter had helped him a lot.
Moreover, Sir Li had risked his life to ensure the safety of Su Qinwei and the other girls.
Sir Li...
Deserved Yin Tian’s efforts to send him on this last journey!
Su Qinwei and the other girls, all draped in white and with red eyes, followed Yin Tian on the road.
After more than an hour, the procession began to ascend the mountain.
Yin Tian led the way, followed by eight strong n carrying the coffin, heading towards the gravesite chosen by Sir Niu for Sir Li.
After several turns, Yin Tian and his group arrived at the gravesite.
But...
Yin Tian saw another group of people digging graves there, and they had already dug a ter-deep pit in the ground!
A fat man stood at the edge of the pit, directing his subordinates to dig.
Standing beside the fat man was a Feng Shui Master.
Yin Tian turned to look at Sir Niu, "Are these your n?"
Sir Niu shook his head, "No, I don’t recognize them."
Yin Tian’s face turned grim with anger, as he handed the portrait to Su Qinwei and stepped forward boldly.
"What are you doing?"
Yin Tian asked indifferently.
The fat man glanced at him and, seeing Yin Tian’s attire, let out a derisive snort, "Digging a grave, can’t you tell?"
"I bought this plot of land yesterday; why are you tilling my land?"
Sir Niu also ca forward, angrily demanding an explanation.
"Just because you bought it, it’s yours? I’ve taken a fancy to this plot too," the fat man replied arrogantly, sneering, "You tell how much you paid, and I’ll give you double to get lost and stay out of the way!"
Sir Niu then turned his attention to the Feng Shui Master, "It’s you! Weren’t you the one I brought here to inspect the Feng Shui yesterday?"
The Feng Shui Master stood with his hands on his hips, emboldened by the fat man at his side, equally arrogant.
"What a coincidence, this gentleman also sought my services to inspect Feng Shui for a pri location. After checking several sites, this is the one I found most suitable, and this gentleman offered more money. So, could I ask you to accommodate us?"
"Hmph!"
The fat man snorted in a tily manner, his face full of smugness.
"You!"
Sir Niu was truly incensed by the fat man’s arrogance, his chest heaving with anger.
Yin Tian stood by Sir Niu side, put a hand on his back and pressed a few tis, which made Sir Niu feel a bit better.
Sir Niu was about to say sothing when Yin Tian stopped him.
"Sir Niu, you go and rest; I’ll handle this."
