At this mont.
In the inner courtyard of the Chen Ku’s ho, watching the two brothers argue, the elderly mother, Hu Zi, Xu Lan, Chen Tian, and Li Yuancheng fell silent.
Finally, they watched as the two brothers stepped inside.
"Er Lang." After a mont of silence, Mother Chen asked, "Your brother has been telling us a lot over the past few days. If war truly breaks out, will you go to the battlefield? If that’s really the case, we should leave."
She was a simple villager, only knowing that the battlefield was a place of death. Although her son seed to have so skills now, in the face of seas of enemies and possibly flying, earth-tunneling experts, no matter how big his skills were, he wouldn’t dare say he could retreat unscathed.
Hearing his mother’s words, Chen Ku realized that she had been persuaded by Chen Xin, wanting to stay away from the war and find a peaceful place.
Chen Ku took a deep breath and didn’t say much. "Mother, don’t worry, I won’t easily go to the battlefield, but Brother is right. If a fight breaks out, Qiu Dragon Mansion indeed becos dangerous, and there won’t be any safe place in the whole You State. So, you should go with Brother."
"Us? You... you’re not coming with us?" Chen Tian, the eldest sister, imdiately grew agitated.
"Second Uncle." Hu Zi quickly ran over, clinging to Chen Ku’s leg, "Second Uncle, I don’t want to leave you."
Chen Ku patted Hu Zi’s head, smiled at his family, and said, "I still have many matters in Ji Country. Once I handle them, I will co to find you. If you don’t believe , ask Brother, is going to Yuan Country not convenient for ?"
He looked at Chen Xin.
Chen Xin couldn’t help but recall Chen Ku’s nurous journeys between the two countries and, with slight surprise, nodded to his family, "The younger one’s abilities are not below mine. We will go ahead first, and I’ll personally co back to get him later."
Hearing Chen Xin’s words, Chen Ku asked, "When do you plan to take them away?"
Chen Xin initially wanted to say today, as the sooner, the better since there wasn’t anything necessary to take with them. But noticing that Chen Ku had just returned, he softly said, "Tomorrow."
"Alright." Chen Ku didn’t say much more.
He understood the big picture, learning from Chen Xin about the Yuan Country Sect Alliance Army, which was just waiting for a precise Spirit Vein location. Once confird, they would launch a total offensive.
After comforting his family.
Chen Ku and Chen Xin went outside again.
Chen Ku looked at him and asked, "Aren’t you worried that I might report this Yuan Country invasion to the Ji Country high-ups?"
He had long been prepared to report this matter, hoping that Ji Country could block Yuan Country at the national gates, creating a comfortable and peaceful cultivation environnt for him to develop further.
Chen Xin gave a nonchalant smile and said, "If it was last year, knowing about this would still be in ti for Ji Country. But now... whether you report it or not, the result will be the sa. So, if this piece of information could even let you advance slightly in Ji Country’s officialdom, consider it a trivial help from , your elder brother."
Chen Ku was thoughtful, didn’t ask further, seemingly having guessed sothing.
That night, the family had a not-so-lavish reunion dinner on a non-festive day. The next day, Chen Ku stood at the door, seeing Chen Xin off as he took the family away.
Finally, Chen Ku asked the question from yesterday, "You said yesterday that whether I report or not, it would be the sa result. Is it because, during this venture into Ji Country, you already completed your mission of finding a certain Spirit Vein location? As soon as you return, Yuan Country will invade directly?"
As Chen Xin said, his physique was extrely rare. After reaching the great achievent, he would be an Eleventh Realm Qi Cultivator, a great treasure to any sect. Yet, he was sent as a spy, clearly indicating it was sothing only he could do, a risk he must take.
The answer was... Primordial Spirit Body.
Innately close to nature’s spiritual energy and Primordial Qi, able to attract nature’s spiritual energy to assist oneself, with the extrely strong ability to sense Spirit Veins.
Chen Xin didn’t answer.
Silence was the answer.
Finally, he left a gentle statent, "Younger brother, my family and I will wait for you at the Three Star Cave. I look forward to your Tyrant Body achievent. If you are like , perhaps the next ti we brothers et, it will be to traverse the Longevity Road together."
"See you on the Longevity Road..."
With hands behind his back, standing at the doorway, Chen Ku quietly murmured.
Then, he watched as Chen Xin waved his hand, summoning a massive wave of spiritual energy that enveloped him and his family, ushering them into his sleeve, nodded at him, and disappeared from the door.
