Chapter 538: Chapter 533: Seeking Death!_1
How could an eight-year-old Fatty, who had just started his journey of cultivation, have possibly escaped? Not to ntion, he had escaped all the way to Yan Province in the Spirit State.
"It was my father and butler who saved ."
"The situation was extrely dire back then."
"All of my siblings were killed, and only I was left alive."
"My father, not wanting the Situ Family to die out, used his severely injured body to block the enemy, which provided a chance for the butler and
to escape."
Fatty spoke softly, a hint of unresolved sorrow in his expression.
"So, that’s what happened." Realization dawned on Qin Feiyang. He asked, "What happened to the butler?"
"I don’t know."
"Not long after we escaped, I passed out."
"When I woke up, I was already in Yan Province. However, the butler left
a letter," Fatty answered.
After all, he was only eight at that ti, just a child. How could he have possibly withstood such a horrifying tragedy?
Qin Feiyang asked, "What did the letter say?"
Fatty replied, "He told
to live on strongly and not to think of revenge."
"No revenge?" Qin Feiyang was puzzled.
"The butler must have thought that I didn’t have the ability to seek revenge."
"Among all my siblings, my talents were the worst."
"But it seems like fate has a sense of humor, allowing
to be the last one left alive," Fatty said, shaking his head self-deprecatingly.
Qin Feiyang smiled and said, "There must be a reason for heaven to keep you alive."
"Indeed!"
"Before I t you, I had never thought about revenge."
"Because I lacked confidence in myself."
"But since I t you, I believe that I have a chance."
Fatty clenched his fists, a fierce light shining in his eyes!
Qin Feiyang asked, "Did you co to Yun State this ti for revenge?"
"No."
"The butler also ntioned in the letter that I should return and ensure my parents and clan mbers were buried in peace."
"So, this trip is mainly to find the butler and to pay respects to the ghosts of my parents and clan mbers."
"As for revenge..."
"I know that you, Boss, will definitely help ."
"But I want to kill them with my own hands, to avenge my parents, my siblings, and my clan mbers," Fatty said.
Qin Feiyang nodded. Indeed. If he were in the sa situation, he wouldn’t want anyone else to help him either.
But now, Fatty clearly lacked the capability. Disregarding the Lord of Yun State, even the three City Lords were War Ancestors. With Fatty’s Seven-star War Emperor power, it was utterly impossible for him to kill them.
However, just because he couldn’t do it now didn’t an he never could.
After all, Fatty had already undergone a complete transformation, and his current talent was unmatched in the entirety of Yun State.
I believe it won’t take long for him to take his revenge!
Qin Feiyang asked, "Have you thought about how to find the butler? Where to start looking?"
"I don’t know."
"The Situ Family was exterminated for treason."
"If the butler is still alive, he must be living under a pseudonym. The probability of finding him is exceptionally slim."
"Unless I reveal my true identity."
"But doing so would definitely attract the attention of the three City Lords and that old witch."
Fatty furrowed his brows, unable to make up his mind.
Qin Feiyang suggested, "Since we don’t have any leads now, let’s go to the State City first. We might find so clues unexpectedly."
"Yeah." Fatty nodded in agreent.
Qin Feiyang asked, "Do you know the coordinates of the State City?"
"Of course." Fatty took out a teleportation gate and activated it. The two of them walked in one after another.
***
Several thousand miles away from the Spirit Cloud Mountain Range, a vast city stood mighty and grand.
The towering city wall, like a giant serpent, lay coiled upon the great earth, exuding a cold aura.
Inside the wall, countless magnificent buildings of different heights stood erect.
On the old streets, people ca and went, and the area was bustling.
This was the State City of Yun State, much larger in scale than the State City of Spirit State.
The city had only one gate, located in the east.
Outside the gate was a plain that stretched several miles, not a tree in sight, but the ground was covered in lush, green grass.
Among the grass, wildflowers blood and butterflies danced in the air.
Many children were running and playing on the plain. So as young as five or six, others as old as eleven or twelve, their laughter echoing unceasingly.
The atmosphere was peaceful and joyful.
But at the end of the plain was an endless range of mountains.
This was a paradise for fierce beasts, a holy land for Hunters, and a prohibited area for children, filled with danger at every turn.
「In a certain part of the forest.」
Two fierce beasts were feasting.
WHOOSH!!
Suddenly, two figures appeared out of nowhere. It was Qin Feiyang and Fatty.
ROAR!!
The two fierce beasts’ eyes lit up and they imdiately pounced, only to be easily killed by Fatty.
They then took a Shape-shifting Pill, slightly changed their appearances, and started walking out of the forest.
A mont later, the two of them erged from the forest and stopped at the edge of the plain.
Looking at the children playing on the plain, Fatty was lost in his mories for a mont.
"When I was a kid, I often played here. I was the local bully, and I was always followed by a bunch of brats."
"I thought it was quite imposing at the ti."
"Now that I think about it, it’s quite funny," Fatty laughed.
Qin Feiyang said, "Everyone’s childhood has a period of joy."
Wasn’t he the sa back in the Imperial Capital?
But childhood is too short, destined to beco only a mory.
Suddenly, Qin Feiyang seed to think of sothing and asked, "Since you were born here, shouldn’t you also know Mo Wushen and the others?"
Fatty nodded. "Mmm. But they are all older than . When I was born, they were already disciples of the Holy Temple, so I hardly had any interactions with them."
"Why didn’t you tell
directly when you saw them in the Spirit Cloud Mountain Range?" Qin Feiyang frowned.
"Because I wasn’t ready yet!" Fatty chuckled.
Right away, Qin Feiyang rolled his eyes at him.
Fatty smiled awkwardly, looked around, and said, "More than a decade has passed, nothing has changed here. Boss, can I take a few more looks?"
"As you wish," Qin Feiyang said.
Fatty walked slowly towards the city gate.
As he looked at this familiar plain and those carefree children, he seed to see his past self, and a smile gradually spread across his face.
This smile, free of any impurities, was pure and innocent.
Having known each other for so long, it was the first ti Qin Feiyang had seen such a smile on Fatty’s face.
It seed Fatty still held deep affection for Yun State.
But then again, who doesn’t miss their ho?
Every person who roams far from ho yearns to return and reunite with their family.
Qin Feiyang was no exception.
He desperately wanted to visit his mother, but life was full of unavoidable circumstances. This longing could only be kept buried deep in his heart.
The two strolled across the plain for a full hour before arriving at the city gate.
Fatty finally collected his thoughts, raised his head to look at the city gate, and whispered, "Father, Mother, I’m back, but you... can I see you again?"
Qin Feiyang sighed deeply, patted Fatty on the shoulder, and said with a smile, "Let’s go in!"
Fatty nodded.
At the city gate, four black-armored guards stood ramrod straight, their presence formidable. Their responsibilities included not only inspecting people entering the city but also protecting the children playing on the plain from being hard by fierce beasts.
But today, the inspection was even more severe.
Every person coming in or out had to undergo the Eye of Heaven Stone test.
Consequently, a long line ford at the city gate.
Qin Feiyang and Fatty stood at the end of the line, looking at the Eye of Heaven Stone in the guards’ hands, both of them with furrowed brows.
Fatty whispered, "Boss, how can we get in with the Eye of Heaven Stone?"
"This..." Qin Feiyang pondered for a mont, then asked, "Was it always like this before?"
Fatty shook his head, "No, unless a major event has occurred."
Qin Feiyang’s eyes flashed as he looked at the middle-aged man standing in front of him.
A lot of fresh blood stained this man, and the sll of blood was pungent. He must be a Hunter.
Qin Feiyang tapped the man’s shoulder and asked with a smile, "Friend, may I ask you a question?"
The man turned around, revealing a rugged face. On his left cheek was a huge scar, making him look sowhat forbidding.
The man glanced at Qin Feiyang, frowned, and asked, "What is it?"
Qin Feiyang asked, "Is the State City inspected like this every day?"
The man was stunned. "Is this your first ti in the State City?"
"Yes! I’ve heard of the fa of the State City, so I’ve always wanted to see it," Qin Feiyang nodded and replied with a smile.
"The State City isn’t much of a good place, and there’s nothing much to yearn for."
"But I’m also puzzled. When I left the city yesterday, I wasn’t checked with the Eye of Heaven Stone. Why is the inspection so strict today?" The man also looked perplexed.
Qin Feiyang said, "Has anything major happened?"
"Unlikely."
"Because, every ti a major event happens, an announcent is posted at the city gate."
"But this ti, nothing was ntioned. It’s really strange," the man said.
But at this mont, the man standing in front of the Hunter turned around and scoffed, "You don’t know because you’re not qualified to know."
This was a young man in black, about twenty-five or twenty-six years old. He was rather handso, but unfortunately, he was also arrogant and domineering, holding everyone else in contempt.
Qin Feiyang and Fatty also looked at the young man in black and noticed that there was a small sword embroidered on his chest!
That was the emblem of the Holy Temple!
No wonder the young man was so arrogant; he was a disciple of the Holy Temple. However, judging from his aura, his cultivation was only at the War King realm.
The Hunter raised his eyebrows, seemingly about to flare up, but once he saw the small sword, his pupils shrank and he imdiately showed a respectful deanor.
Qin Feiyang asked, "May I know the reason, sir?"
"I do know." The young man in black smiled arrogantly. "But why should I tell you?"
Qin Feiyang’s eyes sparkled faintly as he took out a healing pill with a single Elixir Pattern from his Qiankun Bag and handed it to the young man in black.
The young man in black looked at the pill and his eyes instantly lit up.
But then, his expression turned disdainful. He threw the pill to the ground, crushed it underfoot, and sneered, "You think a re trinket like this is worthy of a dignified disciple of the Holy Temple?"
A cold light flashed in Fatty’s eyes. He’s courting death!
Looking at the crushed pill on the ground, Qin Feiyang felt as if the young man in black was trampling on his dignity; a murderous intent surged in his heart.
But there was no trace of anything unusual on his face. He looked at the young man in black and smiled, "Can we have a private conversation?"
The young man in black was intrigued. "Let
tell you beforehand, I don’t care for ordinary trinkets."
Qin Feiyang smiled and said, "I guarantee you won’t be disappointed."
"You’re the one who said it. If you can’t satisfy , you’re finished." The young man in black glanced at Qin Feiyang coldly, then turned and strode arrogantly towards the forest on the other side of the plain.
Qin Feiyang and Fatty exchanged a glance and followed him with brisk strides.
