Chapter 318: Failed Peering, Suffering a Backlash!

"Eh! Su Pei, where did that kid come from? He doesn't seem to be from Bai Jia Cun, right?"

Having obtained the rank of Daifu, it only made the village happy for a few days, and then everyone fell back into their usual hard labor.

And Su Fan was the same as usual; apart from cultivation, he would teach everyone to read and practice martial arts.

Of course, sometimes he also guided the villagers of Bai Jia Cun in farming.

The planting techniques of the Great Qin Empire in this world, while perhaps comparable to the Sui and Tang world, were still very backward in Su Fan's eyes.

Because of the terrain, Su Family Village did grow rice, but the yield was not high.

Su Fan did not teach them too much, only instructing them on breeding and fertilization.

To say nothing more, at least during the autumn harvest, they could increase their yield by more than fifty percent, which was already quite good.

The taxes of the Great Qin were not low; even though almost every household in Bai Jia Cun had a rank, after handing over their dues to the government each year, there was nothing left but enough to keep the family from starving.

With this fifty percent increase in harvest, for every household, it might mean ten days or half a month of extra meat in the coming year.

As for Su Pei, because he was the oldest and had been trained by Su Fan, he sometimes already substituted for Su Fan in teaching the village children to read and practice martial arts.

Sometimes, when Su Fan was cultivating, he would do the teaching, and the former was indeed very diligent.

Of course, his own strength was also quite good; following by Su Fan's side, Su Fan would pick some Spirit Mushroom from the mountains and refine them into Spirit Pill, so Su Pei's cultivation had also rapidly risen to the Innate Realm.

It was roughly equivalent to a swordsman of the Neiqi Realm in this world.

Teaching these children in Bai Jia Cun was more than enough.

But today, there was an extra half-grown child, which made Su Fan somewhat curious.

"Young Master, that child is someone I met when I went into the city. Seeing him begging and feeling that the child was clever, I brought him back."

Hearing Su Fan's words, Su Pei hurriedly stepped forward to salute and replied; he was not afraid that Su Fan would blame him.

After all, they could still afford to raise one child.

"A little beggar?"

Su Fan looked at the little fellow, feeling somewhat puzzled; the feeling the little fellow gave him was quite different.

"What is his name?"

"He says his name is Tianming, and when asked, he doesn't know what his surname is either."

"Tianming?"

Hearing this name, Su Fan's expression froze slightly.

"Is it really such a coincidence?"

Su Fan muttered to himself.

"Young Master, what coincidence?" Su Pei looked puzzled.

"Nothing." Su Fan waved his hand, and then his Soul Power stirred, a flash of purple Qi suddenly flickering in his eyes.

Wangqi Divine Ability, looking toward that child.

In an instant, he saw different colors.

"Bad!"

Suddenly, Su Fan felt several strands of special power on the child's body instantly rebound; that terrifying power felt as if it were going to tear his Divine Soul apart.

Puchi!

With his Divine Soul damaged, Su Fan spat out a mouthful of fresh blood abruptly, his complexion turning deathly pale in an instant, and his whole person became listless.

"Young Master!"

"Young Master! What happened to you?"

Su Fan's sudden change made Su Pei panic; he did not know why he had suddenly spat blood.

"I'm fine!"

"Help me to my room, notify the others, and unless there is something important, do not disturb me; I am going into seclusion."

Su Fan said a few words with difficulty, his tone extremely weak; this backlash to his Divine Soul was the most severe injury he had suffered since his rebirth.

He gave a bitter smile.

"It really is him; I didn't expect this child to actually come here."

"However, the secrets on this child seem to be bigger than I imagined; there are actually so many big shots who have arranged measures on this little fellow."

"Sigh! I only hope those people won't care about me."

Supported by Su Pei, Su Fan returned to his room, immediately took out a few medicinal pills to consume, and then sat cross-legged to begin cultivating.

With his Divine Soul suffering a backlash, this injury would take some time to recover.

Regarding the child Su Pei brought back, he also understood that it was very likely the protagonist of Qin's Mingyue, Jing Tianming.

As for what Tianming's true identity was, he did not know in his previous life, and in this life, he knew even less.

But he believed that this child was definitely not as simple as just being the son of Jing Ke.

After all, to be honest, although Jing Ke was a famous assassin, his strength was just so-so; at best, he was about the same as Gai Nie.

For his son to have so many big shots arrange measures on him, it was not as simple as just protection.

If he were the son of Ying Zheng, that would also be unlikely.

But Su Fan knew that this child was very dangerous, far more dangerous than he was in the world of Qin's Mingyue.

Thinking of this, his heart felt bitter; after all this turning around, he didn't expect to run into him after all.

Now that they had met and a karmic connection had been formed between the two sides, it would not be so easy to shake him off.

Perhaps at this very moment, the eyes of various forces were already looking at him.

How could his small frame bear this?

He was not afraid of the Empire; after all, even if Ying Zheng had some schemes regarding this kid, they would certainly be upright and aboveboard, so he wouldn't care about him at all.

Moreover, he still held a rank in the Empire and was a person of the Great Qin Empire; as long as he didn't do anything stupid, there would be no problem.

However, the other parties, such as the Yin-Yang School, are terrifying.

The Yin-Yang School is too mysterious, and their methods are not exactly upright; they will cast a curse on you at the drop of a hat. To be honest, with Su Fan's current strength, let alone the Protector Elder level, he might not even be able to defeat their disciples.

Those Elders of the Yin-Yang School are all ruthless individuals; once they make a move, there is no such thing as holding back. Even though Su Fan holds the title of Daifu, he does not believe those people would show him any mercy.

The Yin-Yang School has indeed pledged allegiance to the Great Qin, but Su Fan does not really believe they are truly loyal to the Great Qin.

After all, the identity of Donghuang Taiyi, who stands behind the Yin-Yang School, is definitely not simple; just this name alone—to dare to take this name and continue to exist.

To say his strength is weak would simply be a joke.

Such an overbearing name requires absolute power to support it.

"I hope the Yin-Yang School will just treat me like a fart and let me go."

"No, that's not right. I hope Gai Nie comes out quickly and takes this plague god away from me."

Some protagonists are plague gods; don't look at how protagonists can continuously improve their strength and become powerhouses of the Heavens and Myriad Worlds, but the people around them often die miserable deaths.

In Su Fan's eyes, this Tianming is a living, breathing plague god right now.

"Sigh!"

"How unlucky!"

Su Fan knows this world, and he never thought about befriending them, because the secrets on these people are not things he can touch right now.

If you don't have the strength but insist on getting on the ride, the result will definitely be a miserable death.

Although Su Fan is not afraid of death, even if he dies and returns to the Main World, at most his Divine Soul would just be damaged.

But he is unwilling.
