Chapter 1221: Origin

"The Qilin Child of the Zhuge family is willing to farm and till the land here like a farmer. Fellow Daoist's state of mind is quite extraordinary, having the state of Daoist non-action."

"But the books you are reading, Fellow Daoist, seem to be somewhat inconsistent with your plowing in the mountains?"

Su Fan suddenly appeared beside Zhuge Liang, which gave the former a start.

After all, his location here was quite hidden from the outside world, and he had specifically set up an invisibility array around it.

Generally speaking, no one could discover it, let alone arrive beside him without a sound.

However, Zhuge Liang's heart was very strong, his expression only flashed for a moment before returning to its original calm appearance.

"Senior is joking."

"I don't know the senior's honorable name. My humble abode is simple, please forgive me for any neglect."

Zhuge Liang behaved very politely, with the demeanor of a son of a great clan. Of course, at the same time, he bowed to Su Fan, which was a Daoist etiquette.

"This humble abode of yours is not humble at all."

Su Fan smiled. Zhuge Liang's place looked very simple, but what was used here was all top-tier, and there were also arrays set up around it.

Not only the concealment array, but also a part of the array to comb the earth veins. Seeing this, Su Fan instantly understood where the Zhuge family's inheritance came from.

"Who is Zhuge Zhen to you?"

Su Fan suddenly asked.

Su Fan's words made Zhuge Liang startle, but he quickly reacted and said, "He is Liang's ancestor."

"Does Senior know my ancestor?"

Zhuge Liang asked curiously. The person who came was in the appearance of a young man, which Zhuge Liang did not care about. He knew that for people with profound cultivation, appearance could not be judged at all.

The person in front of him gave him a feeling of being unfathomable, like an abyss. He did not dare to be negligent, and when the other party mentioned their Zhuge clan's ancestor, he was very surprised.

That ancestor was a figure from nearly ten thousand years ago.

Although their Zhuge family did not rise in the hands of that ancestor, it was true that without that ancestor and the inheritance he left behind, their Zhuge clan would not have the golden age they have today.

Their Zhuge clan had been inherited for a long time, and compared to some top-tier clans of the current Liu Han, they would not be inferior in time.

During the Great Qin period, their Zhuge clan already existed. Of course, at that time, the Zhuge clan could only be considered a small local landlord.

That ancestor accidentally received the favor of an immortal and went to pursue the immortal Dao, but before that, he left behind a part of the inheritance.

It was this part of the inheritance that allowed the Zhuge clan to slowly rise. During the Great Qin period, the Zhuge clan was not strong, and the highest was only a County Magistrate.

During the troubled times, the Zhuge clan was always very low-key. At that time, the clan also rose, but the Zhuge clan did not participate in the troubled times, but chose to take the clan members into the overseas islands.

At that time, the clan had several Golden Core and Nascent Soul cultivators with good cultivation, which protected the clan through the troubled times.

Later, the Liu Han was established, and the Zhuge clan slowly left the islands, returned to the East Sea, and slowly integrated into the Liu Han.

This was also why, even though the Zhuge clan's strength was not weak, they never had much fame, which was related to their low-key nature, but in reality, it was also because they did not participate in the troubled times, so their influence in the local area was naturally not much.

However, developing to the present, the power of the Zhuge clan could no longer be completely hidden.

The Zhuge clan's low-key nature was also inherited from that ancestor back then.

"Sure enough, it's him."

Su Fan heard this and seemed somewhat dazed. He did not expect that this Zhuge clan actually had a certain origin with him.

That Zhuge Zhen was actually one of his grand-disciples.

Back then, when he first traveled to this world, he traveled in the Jiuzhou for a period of time and settled down on Peach Blossom Mountain in the East Sea.

There, he also met Zhang Liang. At the same time, he also took in a little guy who was in trouble as his registered disciple.

And that little guy, after growing up, also took in several disciples, among whom this Zhuge Zhen was his third disciple.

It could be considered his grand-disciple.

These people, including his registered disciple, later followed them to the Nanzhan Buzhou and merged with the sword cultivators brought by Ge Nie to become the Sword Sect.

And in the Great War between Humans and Gods, his disciples and those grand-disciples, as long as they were from the Jiuzhou, almost all stepped forward, returned to the Jiuzhou, and participated in the Great War.

And these people all died.

His registered disciple, before dying in battle, was at the peak of True Immortal, and that Zhuge Zhen also had the cultivation of Heavenly Immortal.

If they hadn't died, they would have had a chance to reach Golden Immortal in the future.

For that registered disciple, Su Fan also had some feelings. After all, the two had spent hundreds of years together, and he had watched the other party grow up.

Those grand-disciples, they didn't spend much time together.

But Zhuge Zhen, he had seen him, and even back then, seeing that he liked the Mohist rune technique, he taught him some.

Now it seems that the inheritance of the Zhuge clan is indeed passed down from his grand-disciple, so the Zhuge clan has a great origin with him.

So at this moment, looking at Zhuge Liang, his eyes revealed a strange smile.

"Haha! I know him."

"And I am quite familiar with him. That ancestor of yours was watched by me as he grew up."

"I didn't expect that after parting back then, his clan has also branched out. He should be able to rest in peace in the underworld."

Su Fan laughed, his voice getting louder and louder.

Although he didn't have too many feelings for his grand-disciples, after all, these people didn't spend much time with him. After all, when his registered disciple took in disciples, he was already several hundred years old.

At that time, his cultivation had reached above immortal, and he was mostly in seclusion.

On the contrary, these people were closer to Zhang Liang. After all, at that time, it was Zhang Liang who led them.

This is no wonder, the Confucian inheritance of the Zhuge clan is also more profound, completely inheriting the inheritance of that guy Zhang Liang.

Listening to Su Fan's words, Zhuge Liang first frowned, but immediately, suddenly thinking of something, his eyes lit up, and his whole person changed instantly.

Looking at Su Fan, he became solemn again, then constantly tidied his clothes, and respectfully bowed to Su Fan three times.

"Zhuge descendant disciple, pays respects to the ancestor."

Zhuge Liang respectfully kowtowed nine times in a row.

"Get up! It seems you have recognized my identity."

Su Fan's identity, generally speaking, no one recognized, after all, few knew his appearance. During the Great Qin period, perhaps many knew his contribution, and the Hundred Schools of Thought honored him as a sage, but even if many met him, they did not know him.

The Zhuge clan might not have left his portrait, but these words of his, clearly Zhuge Liang was a smart person, and from these few short sentences, he guessed it.

Since that Zhuge Zhen left an inheritance, naturally it was very likely that he also left some information about his master's sect, so his identity was definitely not difficult to guess. ===== CHAPTER 1222 =====
