Deafeningly silent.<\/i><\/h5>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-3ef6d22 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"3ef6d22\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Yu Zhen obediently raised his head to let Yin Yan wipe his face with a paper towel. From the corner of his eyes, he noticed the three men squatting around a sapling that he had raised. Their faces were grave, causing nervousness to creep into Yu Zhen\u2019s heart. In a hushed voice, he asked, \u201cYin Yan, why are they here? The saplings here&#8230; would they notice something?\u201d<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cThey came to see the leisure hall. Dad gave me this task, so I couldn\u2019t avoid it.\u201d Yin Yan threw the mud-stained paper towel into a trash can. Gently tilting Yu Zhen\u2019s head, he broke off Yu Zhen\u2019s gaze and added, \u201cDon\u2019t look over there. They\u2019ve already noticed the strangeness of the saplings.\u201d<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Yu Zhen\u2019s nerves tensed up, but he didn\u2019t give in to the urge to look back at the squatting group. Instead, he asked, \u201cWhat do we do now?\u201d<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cYou\u2019re a monk. What you did is good for the country and for the people. It\u2019s not in conflict with their stance. There\u2019s no need to be too concerned about them. Treating them as normal will suffice.\u201d Yin Yan gently stroked his cheeks. Spiritual energy gently flowed from his hands, removing all the sweat from Yu Zhen\u2019s forehead.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Yu Zhen immediately felt much cooler and more comfortable. Reflexively, he smiled at Yin Yan, but when he remembered Feng Yuan\u2019s presence, he pulled Yin Yan\u2019s hands down and earnestly replied, \u201cDon\u2019t use spiritual energy. Be careful or they\u2019ll notice.\u201d<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The issue of Yin Yan\u2019s reincarnation into another body was like a ticking time bomb. They couldn\u2019t let their guard down. To avoid people like Feng Yuan, it was better for Yin Yan to retain the identity of being an \u201cordinary person\u201d.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&#8220;Don&#8217;t worry, they won&#8217;t notice.&#8221;<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Yin Yan held his hands and asked, \u201cDo you want to hear what they\u2019re saying?\u201d<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Yu Zhen\u2019s eyes brightened. \u201cYou can do that? How do you listen to them? Would they find out about it?\u201d<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cBy using divine sense. They won\u2019t notice it.\u201d Yin Yan snapped his fingers beside Yu Zhen\u2019s ears and the sound of Feng Yuan\u2019s voice rang in their ears.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201c&#8230; the person of great evil is in B City, beside Yu Zhen.\u201d<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Hearing his own name, Yu Zhen felt another urge to turn and look in Feng Yuan\u2019s direction, but Yin Yan lifted Yu Zhen\u2019s head again. To the people around them, it looked like Yu Zhen had deliberately rubbed his cheek against Yin Yan\u2019s palm.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Yin Yan pressed a thumb against Yu Zhen\u2019s lips and said, \u201cListen carefully.&#8221; Then he withdrew his hands.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Yu Zhen pursed his lips and forced himself to relax.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u2026 However, no one spoke for a long time.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&#8220;They&#8217;re looking over here. Smile.&#8221;<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Yu Zhen\u2019s relaxed nerves suddenly tensed up again. He frowned and whispered, \u201cWhy did they mention my name? Who\u2019s beside me? Why aren\u2019t they talking? Are they watching us?\u201d<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&#8220;I like you.&#8221;<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cWhat did you say?\u201d Yu Zhen looked at him with bright eyes, like a tiger coveting its prey. The corners of his lips twitched. He\u2019d heard it and understood it clearly, but he pretended to look serious.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Yin Yan complied with his prompting and replied, &#8220;I said that you like me.&#8221;<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cThat\u2019s not what you just said!\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Yin Yan covered his lips again and replied, \u201cShush, continue listening.\u201d<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">At their spot beside the sapling, Bo Xiu and Feng Lin looked away. They looked like they just ate a bowl of dog food. They glanced at each other and Feng Lin smiled foolishly, while Bo Xiu awkwardly sighed and attempted to find his composure as an elder.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cIn other words, we need to keep watching. We need to keep observing to see if Yin Yan is the person of great evil. From the current situation, he seems to simply be an ordinary person with a strange fate.\u201d Feng Yuan finally stood up and he continued, \u201cIn a short while, I\u2019ll find a chance to get in touch with Yu Zhen and ask for his opinion on Yin Yan. Everything else will have to wait until we\u2019ve exchanged information. Alright, get up. The screen for blocking out sounds is about to fail.\u201d<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Feng Lin and Bo Xiu stood up. Not far away from them, Jin Kai who had been looking at the renderings of the construction site finally returned from a dreamlike state and focused on his surroundings. He looked at the renderings in bewilderment, then shook his head. After putting away the design plans, he put a smile on his face and approached the three men. \u201cOld Feng, the basic arrangements of the center\u2019s interior have been completed. Would you like to go inside now, or continue with your stroll?\u201d<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cContinue with the walk. It\u2019s still early, there\u2019s no rush.\u201d<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With another snap of Yin Yan\u2019s fingers, the voice of Feng Yuan and the others disappeared.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Yu Zhen frowned, looking as if he had some unspoken thoughts.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cThey\u2019re doubting me. Now it\u2019s your turn to protect me.\u201d Yin Yan slipped him a pill and continued, \u201cDon\u2019t be nervous. Later, when Feng Yuan looks for you, just go along with what he says. They won\u2019t find any mistakes from me. And if you\u2019re nervous, you can have a pill.\u201d<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Yu Zhen eyed the familiar \u201cquick-acting, calming pills\u201d within his hand and was filled with the urge to crush them.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It was those pills that obstructed their relationship and delayed the nurturing of their affections.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He tightened his fingers and a small amount of his spiritual energy emerged, seeming to bare its teeth.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cHmm?\u201d Yin Yan looked at him with hooded eyes as if he was looking at a disobedient child.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The spiritual energy was restrained back into Yu Zhen, and he silently placed the pills into the pagoda tower. He glanced at Yin Yan, then turned his back to him and began mulling over some thoughts.<\/span><\/p><p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Why does Yin Yan have to force down my excitement every time? Maybe in the future, I too can\u2026 <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Yu Zhen sighed at his thoughts.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">After sneaky plans had been devised on both sides, everyone adopted amiable faces as they met up. As if they had no idea what was going on, Yu Zhen and Yin Yan politely exchanged greetings with the others.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The day was too hot, making it unsuitable for entertaining guests outdoors, so they went into the leisure center. They visited the traditional culture area, which was the first section to be decorated.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Although they were told that the interior had been fixed up, in truth, only the basic decorations had been completed. Plans had been made for the area, but the furnishings hadn\u2019t been added yet. Although they were being given a tour of the place, there wasn\u2019t really much to see.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, with many years of experience under his belt, it was easy for Feng Yuan to talk about traditional culture, even if there were only bare walls.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Yu Zhen\u2019s experience in society was shallow so he was swept along into the conversation by the old man&#8217;s enthusiasm. Without realizing it, he was led into talks about their plans for the internal greenery area for the traditional section.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Half an hour flew by without Yu Zhen\u2019s notice. Using the excuse of being thirsty, Feng Yuan asked Yin Yan and Feng Lin to bring some drinks over. Yin Yan glanced at Yu Zhen, nodded, and left without Feng Lin.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As soon as Yin Yan left, Yu Zhen\u2019s overheated brain cooled down. It was time for the real show to begin. Turning his head away, Yu Zhen secretly swallowed a pill. It cleared his mind instantly and brought a peaceful expression to his face. He gave off the subtle aura of a person who had no greed or desires as if he was a truly noble cultivator.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Feng Yuan and the others noticed the changed aura around him and figured he knew they were people from the same line of work. Without beating around the bush, Feng Yuan spoke first. \u201cJunior <sup>[1]<\/sup> Yu, we\u2019re both cultivators. I will set aside the polite talks. I came here today to ask you some things about your grandpa.\u201d<\/span><\/p><p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Grandpa? Why are we suddenly talking about Grandpa? Shouldn\u2019t he be asking about the meritorious sapling? Then probing about the truth of my relationship with Yin Yan?<\/span><\/i><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Yu Zhen was puzzled, but his expression remained as still as mountains.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Seeing him maintain his silence, a sudden worry emerged in Feng Yuan\u2019s mind and he said, \u201cJunior Yu, where does your Grandpa live at the moment?\u201d<\/span><\/p><p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This one\u2019s easy to answer, there\u2019s no need to lie.<\/span><\/i><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Yu Zhen\u2019s eyes dimmed and he replied, \u201cHe\u2019s passed away.\u201d<\/span><\/p><p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As I had thought.<\/span><\/i><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Feng Yuan and Bo Xiu exchanged glances. They sighed within their hearts before Feng Yuan consoled, \u201cMay your grief be subdued. Life, death, and reincarnation are all according to fate. It\u2019s better not to fixate on it.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cThat\u2019s what Grandpa always said.\u201d Yu Zhen brightened up and smiled at Feng Yuan.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The mood in the room dropped. Yu Zhen continued with the tactic of \u201cIf my enemy doesn\u2019t make a move, I won\u2019t make a move. If it seems like my enemy is moving, I will move a little. I must protect Yin Yan well\u201d. He stubbornly refused to speak first.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Feng Yuan thought Yu Zhen wore the attitude of respecting the old while cherishing the young and had thus let the elder dictate the course of their discussion. Feng Yuan\u2019s expression became even friendlier and he said, \u201cYour grandpa and I can be considered old friends. If you don\u2019t mind it, you can also call me \u2018grandpa\u2019 in the future. Tell me if you face any difficulties. Everyone will help you. Right now, the cultivation world is in a decline, and it&#8217;s hard to come by talented people in the younger generation. You\u2026 You have to take care. Don\u2019t fail to live up to your grandpa\u2019s teachings and care.\u201d<\/span><\/p><p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Old friends?<\/span><\/i><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cI understand.\u201d Sensing the man\u2019s sincere care, a warmth rose up in Yu Zhen. He suppressed his doubts and replied, \u201cThank you, Grandpa Feng.\u201d<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Aside from the issue of having to protect Yin Yan and remaining tight-lipped on the subjects concerning him, Yu Zhen quite liked Feng Yuan and his companions so he was inclined towards befriending them.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, he didn\u2019t believe that Old Feng and his own grandfather were truly old friends. It was likely just said out of courtesy.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">After reminiscing about the past, Old Feng circled around to the main topic. With a grave expression, he asked, \u201cXiao Zhen, for what reason did you come to B City?\u201d<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Yu Zhen\u2019s warning radar immediately lit up. Recalling the words which he had overheard earlier, he replied, \u201cA person of great evil.\u201d <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I can\u2019t say it\u2019s because of Yin Yan.\u00a0<\/span><\/i><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Feng Yuan\u2019s expression changed immediately. He urgently asked, \u201cDo you know who the person of great evil is?\u201d<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Feng Yuan didn\u2019t mention Yin Yan\u2019s name out of worry that he would provoke Yu Zhen\u2019s dislike. He worried that if that person was not Yin Yan, Yu Zhen would dwell on it and react badly. After all, Yin Yan did appear to be Yu Zhen\u2019s partner.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Cultivators were very perceptive of others\u2019 words and bearings, so Yu Zhen didn\u2019t dare to spin big lies. He shook his head and sneakily changed the topic of conversation. \u201cAfter arriving in B City, I\u2019ve run into many ghost cultivators and evil cultivators, but none were the person of great evil.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cWere you the one who dealt with the ghost cultivator at Boli building?\u201d Bo Xiu couldn\u2019t help but interrupt.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Yu Zhen looked at him and quietly racked his brains for how he knew about Boli building. As he was indeed the one to eliminate the ghost cultivator, he nodded and replied, \u201cBut the credit doesn\u2019t belong to me completely. I had the help of a magical tool.\u201d <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As well as a person.<\/span><\/i><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Feng Yuan asked, \u201cIs that magical tool your grandfather\u2019s peach wood sword?\u201d<\/span><\/p><p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You even know about this?<\/span><\/i><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Bewildered, Yu Zhen nodded again.<\/span><\/p><p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Why does this group of people know what I did in B City so well? And they seem to know a lot about Grandpa. Did they do some research?<\/span><\/i><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cThat magical tool\u2026 Could I have a look at it?\u201d With a little excitement, Bo Xiu made a request which could be considered slightly impolite.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He had worshipped Qing Xu Zi for a long time, although the senior had departed and there was no way to talk with him, Bo Xiu had the chance to look at his magical tool. It would help him get over some of his regrets.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With an opportunity to find out their true thoughts, Yu Zhen brought out the peach wood sword. After a moment\u2019s pause, he also brought out the copper coins which Grandpa Yu had let him play with as a child.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">After entering the Way, he\u2019d realized that the copper coins contained merits within them. They could suppress and help the user avoid evil. It was a valuable item. His grandpa allowing him to play with it showed how dearly the man cared for him.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As soon as the sword and coins were presented, Feng Yuan and his companions burst into excitement. Feng Lin shouted, \u201cMy god! I can see it! I can see the glow of merits! Grandpa, I can see ghosts now!\u201d<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cYour sight has been influenced by the energy of the coins.\u201d Feng Yuan mercilessly squashed his high spirits. Seeing the copper coins, a complicated expression crossed his face. After a long while, he sighed, \u201cIn the past, Qing Xu Zi had used these coins right in front of me. His skill for executing formations had reached perfection. This Feng\u2019s techniques were a sham in comparison.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Qing Xu Zi? What?<\/span><\/i><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Yu Zhen\u2019s eyes widened. Worried he would expose himself, he turned his head as he put away the magic tools before he retrieved a pill and swallowed it to regain his calm.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Don\u2019t tell me that the Qing Xu Zi mentioned by Feng Yuan is Grandpa?<\/span><\/i><\/p><p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Qing Xu, Qing Xu Zi\u2026 they are the same person?*<\/span><\/i><\/p><p style=\"text-align: right;\"><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><sup>*Reminder: <br \/>Qing Xu = Grandpa Yu\u2019s official Taoist name. <br \/>Zi is something like an honorific.<\/sup><\/span><\/i><\/p><p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Feng Yuan really did know Grandpa?<\/span><\/i><\/p><p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Is the rumored Qing Xu Zi of the cultivation world, the Qing Xu Zi that Feng Yuan knows, the apparently very, very powerful Qing Xu Zi, the same person he knows as \u201cGrandpa\u201d? The same one who holed himself away in the countryside and surrounded himself with flowers, grass, chicken, duck, geese, rabbits and fortune-telling?\u00a0<\/span><\/i><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Yu Zhen fell silent. Deafeningly silent.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-fe694b7 elementor-widget-divider--view-line elementor-widget
