Chapter 516 – Rembrance of the Past; Startling Truth (6)
“And then what happened?” asked Cheng Xiao Xiao again.
Elder looked over at Cheng Biyuan first before he carried on, “Then, even though nobody believed what Sister-in-law Fang had said and so people would also give Housemaster a hard ti from ti to ti. From that point forward, the father and son relationship between Cheng Yutang and Housemaster had cooled and Housemaster felt a lot of pressure from the elders. His status within the family had fallen sharply but, luckily, nothing more serious ca out of it.
“Up until Housemaster’s cultivation was destroyed by First Elder during one of his training trip when he was 15 years old when he was completely given up on. If it wasn’t for the old principal of School of Divine Condor who had stepped in at the ti, he might not even be alive anymore. Luckily, not only was he able to stay alive, he was also able to retain his cultivation, other than the fact that it had dropped from martial spiritualist all the way to martial scholar. And his days at the Cheng’s got even worse.”
“Dad’s cultivation wasn’t destroyed until two years after grandma has passed away. Was there any correlation there, or, should I say, was there any reasons for that?”
Having said that, Cheng Xiao Xiao asked her father, “Dad, I don’t think what was said about grandma was true. I’m afraid it has sothing to do with First Elder. As for why, nobody knew. But why did he harm you after two years or what triggered that, or what had threatened him. Dad, try to recall and see if you rember any incidents between First Elder and you that seed out of place.”
“That... let think about it...” now that his daughter had brought it up, Cheng Biyuan tried to recall what had taking place in those two years.
After a while, Cheng Biyuan’s eyes bead and he said in a deep voice, “I rember it now!”
He then turned to Elder and said, “Uncle, do you still rember that the deepest area in the east side of the Cheng’s property beca a forbidden area and First Elder said that was where he cultivated and wouldn’t let anyone over there, right?”
“Yes, I do seem to recall that,” said Elder as he nodded.
“I recalled coming across that area inadvertently and wanted to see what the area looked like. But First Elder appeared after I had only taken a few steps. What I rembered the most was the killer’s intent in his eyes. They went away quickly though. Then he explained to gently that there was nothing interesting in the area and that it was just the area where he used for cultivating and he didn’t like to be disturbed.”
“That was right...”
Elder slamd his hand on the table, stood up, and said loudly, “That must be it. Housemaster, did you know that a lot of the younger ones had accidentally walked into that area that you talked about over the years and they were all killed by First Elder!”
“Oh mi!”
“Gosh!”
The won that were present all shouted out. That was indeed a shocking piece of news!
“That First Elder had gone insane!” Madam Gong couldn’t help but said.
Rong Jingshi nodded and said, “If we don’t take care of him, he’d harm a lot more others.”
“He had already killed a lot of people. We can’t let him live!” Even Old Man Ying who had killed his fair share of people in the past couldn’t withstand soone who was so ruthless.
The others there nodded silently as well. They have all been around for quite a bit of ti, but this was the very first ti they have learned of all the damages done to the Cheng’s by an outsider.
If they hadn’t heard about these directly, they would never had believed them. Now they must lant, there were definitely all sort of people in the world.
“It looks like we must take a trip to Capital City Cheng’s,” said Cheng Xiao Xiao nonchalantly.
Cheng Biyuan looked up and said solemnly, “Xiao Xiao, we must go and rescue your grandmother. We must!”
