Chui Yim dug a deep hole where he stood and buried the old man.

He then walked to the carriage, now sunken in the snow, and pulled it out. Opening the window revealed a sleeping adult man.

How did he manage to fall asleep facing such a situation? Chui Yim watched him speechlessly.

As if sensing Chui Yim’s gaze, the man jumped up and opened his eyes slowly, meeting Chui Yim’s gaze curiously. “Uncle, who are you?”

Chui Yim was at a loss for words. Uncle? He looks almost thirty and he’s addressing me as Uncle?

However, Chui Yim noticed the man had an incredibly clear gaze. It was said that eyes are the windows to the soul, and cultivators in particular could see a person’s character through their eyes. The man's eyes were as clear as those of a child, without a trace of worldly contamination.

“Does he have an intellectual disability?” It suddenly came to Chui Yim’s mind. Chui Yim would have believed this man was a kid just from his gaze if he didn’t see his mature appearance!

“Uncle, have you seen my father?” The man blinked his eyes at Chui Yim and pouted. “Little Hoi is hungry.”

This made Chui Yim’s head hurt, and he immediately took out a huge bun from his Divine Bracelet of Five Elements. “Uncle has food.”

The man’s eyes lit up.


In Heaven’s Pillar City’s Chung Clan, two elderly men were sitting in the living room, enjoying hot tea.

“Jung Sin is indeed a heroine; she’s fearless and even invited my son for a mission. Brother Chung must be pleased to have a daughter like her.”

Clan Leader Chung Kin Shing caressed his white beard and laughed. “Brother Cheung, she’s nowhere near Yim Wang. He’s young and talented, already in the three-chambered state and in possession of a powerful self-created gliphility, Glorious Arrow, which the world knows about the moment it’s shot out.”

“He’s indeed a talented boy.” Clan Leader Cheung Pak laughed loudly. “Oh yeah, it’s time for Chung Jung Sin to consider her marriage, right?” Cheung Pak mentioned all of a sudden.

“Hehe.” Chung Kin Shing was no idiot. He only chuckled and continued drinking tea.

Cheung Pak cursed in his heart and skipped the topic as Chung Kin Shing wished. “Let’s enjoy the tea, haha.”

“They should return sometime soon.” Chung Kin Shing looked up into the sky.

“What treasure is it that intrigues Brother Chung?” Cheung Pak asked.

“Just a piece of Nether Flame Jade,” Chung Kin Shing said.

“Nether Flame Jade?” Shock flashed across Cheung Pak’s eyes. “That ancient item hasn’t shown up in the world for centuries, and it’s a great ingredient for forging!”

A flash of excitement passed Chung Kin Shing’s eyes. “Not only that, it’s similar to the style our clan cultivates; a strength that is both gentle and firm. I’ll process it to become Chung Jung Sin’s treasure – anything for my precious daughter.”

Cheung Pak was in disbelief. He never expected Chung Kin Shing to give the treasure to his daughter instead. Their clan cultivated the March Cherry Blossoms style, which was a gentle yet firm style. A gliphist that cultivated this would definitely increase in power by thirty percent if they used it with the Nether Flame Jade, yet Chung Kin Shing was giving it to his precious daughter?

It seems like Chung Kin Shing really values his daughter way more than we thought, and it will be tough for Little Wang to successfully capture his daughter’s heart.

Chung Kin Shing was feeling lucky too. He felt the Nether Flame Jade’s aura when they came across some villagers while returning to the city. He kept his cool and was surprised to find out that it was currently held by an ordinary family. The jade was extremely precious, yet it ended in an ordinary family’s hands?

Chung Kin Shing treated this incident cautiously. He placed spies around and even learnt about their motive for being in the city – to purchase food. The father and son were farmers who stayed in a village not far away from the city, and this time, they came to purchase food to prepare for winter.

After a week, Chung Kin Shing let his guard down and sent somebody to purchase the jade at such a high price that the pair of father and son would be able to lead a good life for several lifetimes. Farmer Siu said he needed a day to decide, to which Chung Kin Shing agreed. With his status, the farmer would not dare to lie to him.

However, he received news that the father and son pair had left the city early in the morning. This angered Chung Kin Shing greatly, and at the same time, Chung Jung Sin volunteered to go after the pair. With perfect timing, Cheung Pak came over with his son Cheung Yim Wang, and thus they began chasing the farmer and his son in the snow.

Chung Kin Shing was already secretly thinking of which great master he should look for to repair the jade, which had been made into a badge… What a waste to turn it into that.

All of a sudden, his face fell, and he pulled out a bundle of jade slips that were covered in countless words.

These jade slips were passed down from the Chung Clan ancestors, and they were connected to a wisp of soul of each member of the clan. There were two names lit up at the end of one slip – Chung Kin Shing and Chung Jung Sin. However, the light of Chung Jung Sin’s name could be seen fading rapidly, dimming at the end.

“No no no no no!” Chung Kin Shing screamed, shattering everything around him as he was unable to control his energliph.

Cheung Pak was badly shocked. He was also a capable three-chambered glipher and immediately activated energliph to protect himself. “Brother Chung! What…?”

“My Little Sin… Little Sin… has died!” Chung Kin Shing looked up, his eyes bright red as he stammered.

“How can that be?” Cheung Pak was badly shocked. At the same time, a blue bird came flying over to Cheung Pak. “Little Wang…”

His legs turned to jelly when he read the note.

Chung Kin Shing felt that his brain was in a mess. He couldn’t understand what happened, as the old farmer was only in the one-chambered state; it was impossible he could hurt them! Not to mention that they had Cheung Yim Wang, a three-chambered glipher, following them! Even if Cheung Yim Wang had only just broken through, there wasn’t much in the surroundings of the city that could take their lives.

The only possibility was that they came across an elite who similarly had his eyes on the Nether Flame Jade and killed them after robbing the jade!

Chung Kin Shing hated himself for being so stupid – for allowing his precious daughter to chase after the old man like that. He stood up abruptly like a ferocious beast that was ready to attack. “Where does that old Farmer Siu live?”

“Fallen Leaves Village, to the west…” the servant replied while trembling.

Chung Kin Shing immediately got into action, while Cheung Pak on the other side followed, his face turning pale. “Brother Chung, let me follow. Little Wang has died too, and I need to know why.”

Chung Kin Shing nodded his head; the both of them were now in the same boat. With that, they turned into rays of white light and went west.


Chui Yim also buried Farmer Siu’s hardy horse for him. Currently, he was sitting othe carriage that had half sunken into the snow, trying his best to explain to the man that his father had already traveled to the legendary heavens to meet his mother.

Siu Hoi, who had the heart of a child, was extremely happy to hear it. “That’s great. I’ve watched Daddy crying while holding onto that blue jade, he must have missed Mummy a lot.”
