Chapter 360: Chapter 198: You give me 1,000,000 Spirit Stones_2

As soon as he stepped out of the house, his countenance changed considerably. He deployed a soundproof barrier around them and commented casually, “Zhang Fu Guang, you are keeping something from me, aren’t you? In addition to his grave illness, Xu Zhi Wu also exhibits severe symptoms of suppressed emotions. This isn’t something that can build up to such an extent just casually.”

Having channeled his spiritual power through Xu Zhi Wu’s body, he had a clear understanding of the illness he was dealing with.

Zhang Fu Guang’s face changed drastically. He quickly bowed, “Uncle Master Lin, I was eager to tell you too. However, Xu Zhi Wu strongly opposed it, even threatening to take his life. He feared that the matter might provoke some enemies and bring trouble to you.”

Lin Yi smiled faintly, “Oh, so the other party is quite influential, tell me.”

Sighing, Zhang Fu Guang began recounting, “About over two months ago when Brother Xu was bedridden, Xiao Rou would help sell things in the store during the day. She caught the eye of a young cultivator, who felt that Xiao Rou was beautiful and wanted her to be with him.”

“After being rejected, he even ordered his men to forcibly take Xiao Rou away. Upon hearing, the shopkeeper tried to dispel them and even disclosed Brother Xu’s background. Unexpectedly, he was undeterred and continued to pester.”

“He’s the grandson of Hua Yang Zhen Ren from Liu Yun Sect who spoils him very much. Brother Xu asked me to never tell you this, fearing of inviting trouble to you.”

“Later, Brother Xu’s condition worsened and he could only stay in bed. Xiao Rou had to return home, but that kid didn’t give up. He continued to harass Xiao Rou even in front of Brother Xu.”

“Seeing Brother Xu angry enough to cough up blood, I had people investigate. Apart from Xiao Rou, there were also several other girls whom he was harassing.”

Lin Yi couldn’t help but snort. The grandson of Hua Yang Zhen Ren seemed to follow in his grandfather’s footsteps. Previously, during a lecture, he had encountered the conspiracy of a Foundation Building Cultivator of the Hua Yang Lineage. He was able to escape due to his wit. The incident might have been orchestrated by Hua Yang Zhen Ren to some extent.

Earlier on when Hua Yang Zhen Ren wanted a Longevity Grass to prolong a crucial person’s life, he was rejected by several Golden Core Real Persons from Liu Yun Sect. Lin Yi later learnt that it was for the purpose of prolonging his son’s life span.

It was said that this son of Hua Yang Zhen Ren was also at the peak of Qi Refining but could not successfully establish his foundation. fr𝚎𝗲𝐰ebnov𝐞𝐥.𝐜o𝗺

Eventually, Hua Yang Zhen Ren was unsuccessful, and his son who was at the peak of Qi Refining seemed to have died. Unexpectedly, he left behind a grandson who was no different.

While contemplating, suddenly, a mournful cry came from the room, “Daddy…”

Upon hearing the cry, Lin Yi and Zhang Fu Guang rushed into the room. Xu Zhi Wu, who was just looking better, was lying motionless on the bed, his face pale as before.

“Xiao Rou, my condolences. Leave the aftermath to us,” Lin Yi sighed and said slowly.

Over the years, he has witnessed the deaths of people around him, some due to reaching the end of their lifespans and others due to accidents. Their life stories came to an abrupt end.

This only further boosts his determination to continue down the path of cultivation, whereby preserving his own life is the priority no matter what happens.

“Yeah, leave it to us,” Zhang Fu Guang nodded in agreement. If it weren’t for Xu Zhi Wu, he would not have met Lin Yi, obtained some cultivation resources, and finally been admitted into the Outer Sect of Liu Yun Sect to cultivate an intermediate Spiritual Field.

He had already bought a coffin for Xu Zhi Wu and kept it in the adjacent room. He also bought a grave near the Qing Yun City. Such minor affairs, naturally couldn’t trouble Lin Yi.

“Thank you, senior Lin, and senior Zhang.” Xu Yu Rou knelt down in tears.

Lin Yi gestured and helped her up, “No need for formalities, just keep your father’s vigil properly.”

Afterward, he stayed in the room for a while. Some neighbors came to offer their condolences upon hearing Xu Yu Rou’s crying.

Generally, those residing in Qing Yun City go after personal benefits. The neighbors were like strangers, especially when someone has died.

However, these loose cultivators living nearby came to offer their condolences out of their own volition, a testament to Xu Zhi Wu’s character.

Upon seeing Lin Yi, they sensed his strong aura, bowed hastily, and greeted him as senior.

Probably this person was rumoured to be Xu Zhi Wu’s influential friend, the direct disciple of the Golden Sword Zen Ren, the one from the tales. They always thought it was just a rumor, but the man was real.

After a while, the neighbors left gradually, and the room became quiet again but for Xu Yu Rou’s occasional crying.

Subsequently, other members from the intelligence organization arrived to keep vigil for Xu Zhi Wu. Some were martial artists, and some were cultivators.

Lin Yi came out to the yard and sat on a chair. He decided to stay for three days to ensure that Xu Zhi Wu’s funeral affairs proceed smoothly.

After a short while, a strange laughter came from outside the door. Thereafter, a young man walked in, appearing nonchalant and nothing like the grandson of a Golden Core Real Person, rather more of a street thug.

The young man swaggered in with a smug grin, “Heh, so the old guy Xu Zhi Wu finally kicked the bucket, eh? The rumor keeps going about his friend being the direct disciple of the Golden Sword Zen Ren, and yet, even at his death, this so-called friend didn’t show up.”
