Chapter 159: Chen Yu: Growing up happily under the warm guidance of Brother
It was probably around five in the morning.
Chen Yuhu finally climbed down, dazed, from the truck specially dispatched by the Military Guard.
Yunmeng City at night was far too different from Qingshan Town.
The high-rise buildings stood like a forest of giants, decorated by countless lights to look like a dream.
Gazing at the colorful, flickering neon lights on the distant high-rises, Chen Yuhu let out a long breath, then said gratefully to the Military Officer in the driver's seat:
"Many thanks, Your Excellency."
The Military Officer was startled and quickly waved his hands:
"Lao Ge, you absolutely must not call me Your Excellency. I am just a First-Rank Warrior, while your son Chen Yan is a Seven-Tier General Star."
The Military Officer hurriedly handed over a cigarette and signaled the other Military Officers waiting there to begin moving the luggage from the truck into a detached villa ahead.
Chen Yuhu looked ahead; a clean Cyan Stone Path was paved in front of the row of detached villas.
The main entrance of the villa was tall and solemn, with exquisite patterns carved into the stone pillars on both sides.
The well-arranged windows were inlaid with clear glass, and a gentle, warm light shone from within, casting onto Chen Yuhu's wrinkled face.
Chen Yuhu was still somewhat stunned; this was to be his home from now on.
This was just too luxurious.
"Dad, come on in."
Chen Yu's cheerful voice rang out as she walked out of the villa with Chen Yan.
"Dad, why did you bring the cutting board and cabinets from home?"
Chen Yu muttered, looking at the old furniture on the shoulders of the few Military Officers who were moving.
"I figured they might be needed," Chen Yuhu said with a sheepish laugh, his attention shifting to his son.
Chen Yuhu's lips trembled, and thinking of the rumors he had heard today, he squeezed Chen Yan's shoulder:
"Xiaoyan, you weren't hurt, were you?"
"No."
Chen Yan revealed a gentle smile:
"Dad, let's go in. Xiaoyu just cooked, you should eat something first."
"Right!" Chen Yuhu nodded, took a look at the brand-new villa, and a complex yet proud light flashed in his eyes.
"Everyone, stop moving for a moment and come eat something together."
"No, no, we've all eaten."
Nearby, the Military Officers helping Chen Yuhu move looked at Chen Yan with full envy and awe.
Chen Yan had become famous in one battle; who in the Military Guard didn't know Chen Yan's name now?
There wasn't much furniture in Chen Yan's home, and a dozen or so Military Officers had it completely settled in less than half an hour.
They walked out of the villa, each of them—young men of only twenty-something—looking at the villa with different colors in their pupils.
"If only I were like Chen Yan."
A young Military Officer, no more than Eighteen Years Old, spoke up.
Beside him, the Old Squad Leader glanced at the other:
"Hey, Chen Yan has guts and works hard enough. Trust me, you wouldn't want to endure the suffering Chen Yan has."
Everyone nodded, and the Old Squad Leader was about to organize them to leave.
An older Military Officer winked and said:
"Old Squad Leader, any perks this time? After all, we're moving for a genius."
The Squad Leader frowned and scolded:
"Grease, grease, all you think about is grease.
He is a genius, a supreme genius, and very busy.
Besides, this is Chen Yan."
The Old Squad Leader winked.
Chen Yan.
A Mammoth.
He dared to go to the Gong Family to kill; many had seen his crazed posture on Qingshan Mountain.
That murderous nature made one afraid just thinking about it, and you're still here thinking about side money?
The group's expressions tightened, and they prepared to leave.
It was right at this moment.
The door suddenly opened, and Chen Yu ran out.
"Uncles, wait a moment. My brother told me to buy some cigarettes earlier, and we've prepared them for everyone."
The Military Officers were slightly surprised, but then they saw Chen Yan walk out carrying two boxes, smiling:
"There are over a dozen more boxes inside, everyone take some back to smoke."
Military Officers are allowed to smoke.
Everyone goes to Qingshan Mountain to kill Ancient Beasts daily; not to mention the exhaustion of battle, there is also the danger of death.
At times like these, cigarettes become a necessary medicine to relieve stress.
The Squad Leader was stunned. The cigarettes Chen Yan was holding were three hundred per pack, the most expensive batch; these few boxes must have cost a lot of money.
They were only here to help someone move once; there was no need to be so polite.
"Really, no need, General Star Your Excellency, one box, one box is enough!"
The Military Officers were extremely astonished.
Especially since Chen Yan brought the Cigarette himself, his manner was exceptionally courteous.
This made them feel even more flattered.
Although they refused, in the end, they still took all the Cigarette in earnest.
Seeing Chen Yan enter the room Laughing.
The many Military Officer were still in a daze.
Looking at the pile of Cigarette on the truck, the military guards were stunned for a long while.
"Chen Yan isn't as fierce as others say."
The Young Soldier said with gratitude:
"So generous!"
The Old Squad Leader nodded, a trace of emotion in his heart as well.
A genius who could be so generous and courteous to ordinary Military Officer like them was rare indeed.
Before.
After hearing about Chen Yan's deeds, while the military guards sighed, more people were also somewhat fearful.
Now it seems, there was no need.
This Chen Yan was clearly a kind-hearted genius; his murderous nature was only exposed to outsiders.
"Alright, go back, distribute all these Cigarette among everyone."
A Smile rose on the Old Squad Leader's face:
"This is Cigarette personally sent by a Seven-Tier General Star, how glorious it will be to take it out."
Everyone revealed a Smile; just thinking about the way they would show off and hand out the Cigarette made them feel extremely satisfied.
Inside the Villa, listening to the sound of the truck starting, Chen Yan sat on the sofa.
A dozen boxes of Cigarette didn't actually cost much money.
By now, cash was no longer a necessity for Chen Yan.
Seeing these Military Officer, he remembered the corpses of those Military Officer in the Stone Chamber.
Life and death are inevitable, but dying at the hands of an Ancient Divine Beast was too tragic.
"What are you thinking about? Be happy." Chen Yuhu's voice interrupted Chen Yan's thoughts.
Chen Yan smiled and placed a piece of Flesh into Chen Yuhu's bowl:
"Dad, eat more."
"Good... good!"
Chen Yuhu nodded, Laughing.
After the family of three chatted for a while, Chen Yuhu went to sleep.
Chen Yu sat obediently on the sofa, looking at her Brother, lowering her head as if she had done something wrong.
"What are you still lacking in your Cultivation Technique?"
Chen Yan spoke.
Chen Yu was Stun, her Brother hadn't actually scolded her.
Chen Yan revealed a Smile and touched his Sister's head.
How could he not understand his own Sister?
He had figured it out now; although his Sister was still young, since she had already embarked on the Martial Dao, she should see things she ought to see.
"I don't need anything. Master said that treasures are indeed important, but the process of competing for treasures is the place where I can most easily become stronger," Chen Yu said earnestly.
In the Consciousness World, the Red Skirt Woman revealed a trace of a Smile.
Chen Yu had her for the Array Path.
In the SoulRefining path, there was the Tianbei Fist Tournament; the resources were not lacking at all.
Chen Yan was slightly Stun; such high ideological awareness?
"Do you want a Qingqiong Grade A Ancient Divine Beast Eye?" Chen Yan asked.
"Ah?"
Chen Yu was stunned, clearly swallowing her saliva.
In the Consciousness World, the Red Skirt Woman's Mu Jin also trembled suddenly.
Then, Chen Yan took out a green Pupil.
The Green Pupil that had already fused together had now completely evolved into Qingqiong Grade A.
A faint Malice floated within the living room.
Chen Yu's large eyes, like two bright pearls, blinked as she looked at the Green Pupil Ancient Divine Beast Eye, unable to look away.
In the Consciousness World, the Red Skirt Woman pressed her red lips tightly together, speechless for a long time.
After a long while, Chen Yu finally came to her senses and spoke with some difficulty:
"Brother, this Array is very strong, but if I go to learn it, I reckon I will learn it in a very scattered way."
The Array Grain Mark condensed by the Green Pupil was for displacement and concealment.
Chen Yu could go and learn it.
But this was different from Chen Yu's original Array Path; learning too much would result in not learning anything well.
Chen Yan frowned slightly; learning one more thing would make it scattered?
No matter how scattered your learning is, I fear it is not as scattered as mine.
Chen Yu looked at Chen Yan and added:
"For example, Brother, you focus solely on Horizontal Refinement and have only ever practiced Fist Technique, which is why you are so powerful."
She explained patiently.
This was what the Red Skirt Woman told her.
Chen Yan nodded.
Chen Yu is Chen Yu, not him.
Although he wanted to tell Chen Yu that Bing Yi was also him.
But thinking that the Red Skirt Woman was right there in his sister's consciousness, Chen Yan felt as if a thorn were stuck in his heart.
"So, you are still going to the Tianjiao Trial?" Chen Yan spoke.
"Mm, Teacher said there is an Array in the Tianjiao Trial that I need to learn."
Chen Yu said softly.
Chen Yan focused his mind, recalling the Golden Array he had seen earlier that surrounded the entire Tianjiao Trial.
He heard from Shen Yiwei that it was created by an elder of the Xia Imperial Clan named Xia Hanzhou.
This Array condensed the Secret Technique of the Xia Imperial Clan, and it was very powerful.
It was an Array Above Qingqiong.
Someone like Chen Yan could not comprehend it at all.
Why could Chen Yu?
Could it be that Xiaoyu's teacher is a member of the Xia Clan?
Chen Yan only had a guess.
Afterward, he stood up:
"Since you are going, you must at least let me know your strength."
Chen Yu nodded, looking at Chen Yan, thinking of the way her Brother had slaughtered everyone yesterday.
Her pupils, originally like a clear Lake, suddenly surged with fighting spirit.
"Brother, I am also very strong!"
Chen Yu clenched her hands; after all, she had also honed herself through many battles in the Tianbei Fist Tournament.
Although Brother is strong, she also has her own outstanding points.
She would properly shock Brother.
