Capítulo 1669: Chapter 1674: All for Nothing
“Don’t be so anxious, old sir, let
slowly explain Young Master Murong’s situation.”
“Alright, alright! Don’t let the young master be frightened.”
Uncle Fu waited for two months without any news of Murong Nan.
He did not have high hopes for this young master.
He feared that an accident might happen on the road, leaving nothing behind.
Now seeing Xia Liu in the team, how could he not be excited?
“Young Master Murong is now a disciple of the Supre Palace. As for the assessnt on the way, he will tell you about it when he returns to the family.”
Xia Liu said with a smile.
“Haha! That’s wonderful! When the master knows, he’ll surely be very happy!”
Uncle Fu laughed heartily.
Being able to enter the Supre Palace indicates the young master has potential!
“Wait, that’s not right. The young master must have joined Dao Primordial too. How are you able to co out while my young master can’t?”
This question perplexed Xia Liu.
But he quickly responded.
“Because the Palace Master assigned
a task, I have to carry it out. This matter is confidential, so I cannot disclose it, old sir.”
“So that’s the case…”
Uncle Fu nodded.
Dao Primordial assigned Xia Liu a task, allowing him to co out; it makes sense.
While Uncle Fu was sighing, a streak of light flew from the center of Dao Spirit Town.
It finally landed in front of Xia Liu.
“Niechang from Supre Palace greets the Dao Master!”
“No need to stand on ceremony, Town Mayor. I have matters to attend to, please take care of this old sir. If possible, take him to the Supre Palace to see Murong Nan.”
“Niechang understands!”
Seeing the sudden shock on Uncle Fu’s face, Xia Liu’s movent technique surged, and he vanished imdiately.
“Senior! What did you just call him?”
“Daoist Fellow, perhaps you aren’t aware? He’s now the Master of Dao Primordial!”
Niechang said proudly.
“What!”
Uncle Fu was shocked to the core.
Xia Liu turns out to be the Master of Dao Primordial!
This is the most terrifying position in the Western Region!
“Shh! The Dao Master dislikes noise and doesn’t want too many people to know about this, so please keep it a secret.”
Niechang reminded him.
“Oh, I understand!”
Uncle Fu suppressed his surprise.
“You’re quite fortunate to et the Dao Master. Co with
to the Supre Palace.”
Niechang still had a thought.
Xia Liu asked her to take him to the Supre Palace, perhaps because Uncle Fu knows his identity, so he invites him back as a guest.
Later when his identity can be revealed, Uncle Fu can leave.
Uncle Fu, with his experience, understood imdiately under Niechang’s invitation.
Now he had no way out.
He must go to the Supre Palace.
But it’s alright.
If the young master is in the Supre Palace, it’s a joyous occasion to go!
Subsequently, Uncle Fu followed Niechang up to the Dao Primordial Supre Palace.
As night fell, the Imperial City remained bustling.
Inside the Heaven and Earth Tavern.
Xia Liu arrived on the third floor.
He was lucky, as the table he had sat at for over ten days before was still vacant.
After a while, the shop assistant brought so tea.
“It’s you, senior!”
“Hmm?”
Xia Liu turned to look, and the speaker was none other than the shop assistant who had once falsely accused him.
Of course, he wouldn’t hold a grudge against the shop assistant; in fact, he used his reward to extend his stay by three days and pay for the drinks.
“Honorable guest! I thought I’d never see you again!”
The shop assistant could never forget this.
He was the first one to witness soone survive a disagreent with the Prince.
“Even with
wearing a black robe you can recognize ?”
Xia Liu asked surprisingly.
“Hehe! If it was soone else I might not, but you’re etched in my heart, no matter if transford… cough, cough, cough, anyway I have ways to rember!”
The shop assistant wanted to give himself a few slaps; in his excitent, he almost said sothing wrong.
“Haha, it’s okay, your skill in rembering people is quite impressive.”
Xia Liu replied with a smile.
“In our profession, we must retain so mory, thank you for the complint, custor.”
“Alright, if you can offer the answers I seek, I’ll grant you a fortune, how does that sound?”
Xia Liu’s voice suddenly turned solemn.
“Are you seeking information, custor? If I know it, I surely won’t conceal it!”
The shop assistant’s attitude was clear.
“Have you seen this person?”
Xia Liu took out the old man’s portrait.
With that tuft of goatee, if the old man appeared in Heaven and Earth Tavern, the assistant would rember.
“I have an impression.”
“Oh! Tell
quickly!”
Hearing the assistant’s reply, Xia Liu nearly jumped up from his chair.
“This old gentleman booked a room for a whole month; he doesn’t like talking, and has a very distinctive character. Many staff didn’t dare to refill his drink except .”
After carefully examining the portrait for a while, the assistant beca more certain, sure he wasn’t mistaken.
This old man is indeed that aloof guest!
“When did he book it?”
Xia Liu grabbed the assistant’s collar and pulled him closer.
He was excited.
After so many years, he finally got news about the old man!!!
This journey wasn’t in vain!
Truly wasn’t!
“It was three years ago, precisely. I had just started working at the tavern.”
Observing Xia Liu’s emotional shift, the shop assistant hurriedly disclosed the details, ignoring his cold sweat.
On hearing this answer, Xia Liu froze.
Three years ago…
That’s exactly when the old man disappeared without a trace.
This is not the answer he wanted! Not at all!
After a long silence, Xia Liu slowly released the shop assistant’s collar.
“Sorry, I was just excited, he’s a deeply important family mber to .”
Xia Liu’s words carried a hint of lancholy.
This agony is sothing the shop assistant wouldn’t understand.
No one understood!
“It’s alright, I can empathize with your feelings, honored guest.”
“Hmm, first bring
so wine, then change this outfit.”
“Okay!”
The assistant nodded, it was his shift change ti anyway, otherwise, he wouldn’t agree so readily to Xia Liu’s request.
In a short while, the shop assistant brought two large jars of wine.
If not for his usual diligence, managent wouldn’t allow him to serve so much wine.
“Co drink a few cups with .”
“Is that alright?”
The shop assistant, now in casual clothing, asked with a hint of bitterness.
“Of course it is.”
With Xia Liu’s approval, the assistant’s hesitation vanished, and he grew bolder.
Though after working here for so long, he still remained sowhat reserved.
“What’s your na, and how old are you?”
After a few drinks, Xia Liu asked.
“My na is Yang Chen, I just turned twenty-two.”
“Oh, you’re still young. How did you reach Qi Cultivation level four?”
Uh uh uh…
Startled by Xia Liu’s inquiry, Yang Chen paused before saying, “When I was little, I found a book in a shabby hut, then secretly followed its instructions, and unconsciously gained strength…”
Yang Chen briefly recounted his story.
After a while, Xia Liu roughly understood.
Yang Chen was also a child marked by misfortune, growing up in the slums.
Yet he knew that to rise above, one must beco strong!
Without Cultivation Resources, he worked in the Imperial City, using his rewards to buy Spiritual dicine from the pharmacy, hoping only to improve his own strength.
Unfortunately, without a ntor guiding him, he was like a headless fly.
No matter how hard he worked and tried, without any cultivation experience.
All his efforts yielded minimal results.
“It’s quite amusing, lacking talent yet still dreaming of being powerful one day.”
After a few drinks, Yang Chen began to speak more.
He had never shared these thoughts with anyone.
Chatting with Xia Liu allowed him to self-deprecate freely, venting the pain in his heart.
