I Have A Qi Fortune Altar-Chapter 118 - 113: This Child is So Terrifying! (Two Chapters Combined)
Chapter 118: Chapter 113: This Child is So Terrifying! (Two Chapters Combined)
Chen Yuan nodded and listened intently to Zhao Nanshan’s narration. Although much of the information might have been outdated, it was still of great help to him.
It was also from Zhao Nanshan’s words that Chen Yuan learned how dangerous the outside world was.
Ping’an County, a small area, was like a secluded spot, peaceful yet cramped.
Zhao Nanshan rambled on about what he knew, reminding Chen Yuan that there were opportunities outside, but also dangers.
It wasn’t long before he stopped talking.
“How has your training in Dark Force been?”
After saying that, Zhao Nanshan asked.
Chen Yuan didn’t respond but gently placed his right palm on the stone table and lightly tapped.
“Crack…”
The stone table was suddenly covered in cracks.
Zhao Nanshan’s pupils constricted, his heart filled with an inexplicable shock at Chen Yuan’s strength, which had reached such a level, and his insightful nature,
and his talent in training.
This youth was terrifying indeed!
But on the surface, Zhao Nanshan still maintained a calm demeanor, lightly saying:
“It is passable.”
Chen Yuan nodded. He didn’t think his skills would startle Zhao Nanshan. In Chen Yuan’s eyes, Zhao Nanshan was still a powerful man who was good at concealing his skills.
“It’s all thanks to Elder Zhao’s guidance.”
He was very serious with these words, and grateful to Zhao Nanshan as well; without his tips, Chen Yuan wouldn’t have mastered the tricks of Dark Force in such a short time.
If Zhao Nanshan hadn’t shared his years of experience, Chen Yuan couldn’t have progressed so quickly.
“Hmm, of course, there’s also your own effort…”
Zhao Nanshan stroked his white beard, somewhat embarrassed. It had taken him nearly ten years to achieve such prowess, and Chen Yuan achieved it in a few days?
Even though he had shared his insights, such innate talent was truly astonishing.
Chen Yuan glanced at Zhao Nanshan and smiled, without saying much.
“When you have time, come back to see this old man more often.”
“Don’t worry, Elder Zhao, Ping’an County is where I grew up after all, and moreover, Nanling Prefecture is not too far from here; coming back won’t be a hassle…”
“That’s good.”
“Elder Zhao, what’s the situation with Xu Lingtian from Dragon Tiger Sect now? Can you talk about it yet?”
Chen Yuan had asked about Xu Lingtian before, indirectly, but Zhao Nanshan didn’t seem to know much, after all, he had left that place a long time ago.
Even, Zhao Nanshan’s name might be an alias.
It wasn’t impossible.
If Zhao Nanshan had a big feud with the Sect Leader of Dragon Tiger Sect, why would Xu Lingtian not eliminate him thoroughly and instead let him live a peaceful life here?
From Zhao Nanshan, Chen Yuan only knew that Xu Lingtian might have the strength of the peak of the Gang Condensation Realm, but he knew nothing else.
Zhao Nanshan was silent for a long while, then said in a low voice:
“I was originally from Dragon Tiger Sect, and once…”
After listening, Chen Yuan was somewhat astonished; it was somewhat cliché. In his youth, Zhao Nanshan was Xu Lingtian’s elder brother in the sect and had progressed to the Condensing Evil Realm at a young age, making him the most outstanding disciple of that generation from Dragon Tiger Sect.
But later, because of a woman, Xu Lingtian turned against Zhao Nanshan, not only framing him but also crippling him by severing his meridians. Using the last of his strength, Zhao Nanshan fell into the great river.
But Zhao Nanshan didn’t rise from the ashes like the protagonist of a novel, regain his power, win back the woman, and make Xu Lingtian kneel for forgiveness while also smirking smugly.
His meridians were truly severed, and he was severely injured internally. In the end, he resorted to a secret technique of the Demon Dao to mend some of his meridians, but at the cost of his body’s functions rapidly decreasing by decades.
That’s why he currently looked like this, although he was just over forty!
“Is the Dragon Tiger Sect very strong?” Chen Yuan asked quietly.
“It’s considered a top sect throughout Nanling Prefecture.”
“Elder Zhao, you want me to take revenge for you and kill Xu Lingtian, do you also want me to take back the woman you just mentioned?”
Zhao Nanshan’s eyes were somewhat desolate as he slowly shook his head.
“Do you feel… disillusioned with the human world?”
Chen Yuan sensed an emotion and impulsively asked.
“My body doesn’t allow it…”
Chen Yuan: “???”
He now understood Wang Ping’s feelings, hearing something so out of character from someone who seemed so upstanding… truly left him at a loss for words.
“When you get to Nanling Prefecture, don’t act rashly, think thrice before you act. Xu Lingtian is a clever man; don’t make a move without certainty of victory,” Zhao Nanshan cautioned seriously.
“Don’t worry, Elder Zhao, I understand.”
Chen Yuan was not an impulsive person himself; Xu Lingtian at the peak of the Gang Condensation Realm was not someone he could handle now, even with scheming.
Schemes and plots are after all inferior methods.
If he had the strength, Chen Yuan also preferred to barrel through obstacles directly.
Zhao Nanshan nodded, slowly got up, and turned his back:
“Wait here…”

After speaking, he walked towards a small room not far away.
Chen Yuan looked expectant. During his few visits, it seemed that Zhao Nanshan had always brought him good items from that small cabin; could it be that as he was leaving,
Zhao Nanshan was going to gift him one last present?
Before long, Zhao Nanshan exited the room, holding a wooden box engraved with black patterns in his hand. He placed it on the stone table and pushed it in front of Chen Yuan.
“What is this?”
Chen Yuan straightened up.
“Take a look for yourself,” Zhao Nanshan said bluntly, not wasting words.
“Click.”
Chen Yuan opened the wooden box, and inside lay three dark brown elixirs the size of a thumb, exuding a peculiar fragrance that filled his nostrils, adorned with some natural patterns.
