#25 - Chapter 25: Rebirth, a monk sneaking into Wangjiang City

In the end, they still came.

Initially, Xue Deshan didn't notice his son's disappearance, as he was well aware of his son's unreliable nature, assuming he was holed up in some brothel.

However, after several days, Xue Deshan sensed something was wrong. After searching, he discovered that Xue Yong had vanished into thin air!

Due to the sudden incident at the City Lord's mansion, Tianmu City was sealed off for several months.

Xue Deshan searched the entire city but couldn't find his son. Unable to leave the city to search, he assumed his son might be trapped outside.

He questioned the disciples of the Tianmu Martial Hall, but the response was that no one had gone out with Xue Yong, nor had he left any messages. Xue Yong's whereabouts became a mystery.

It wasn't until Shangguan Yu fled Tianmu City and the Wang family came to take over the city that Xue Deshan had the opportunity to go out and search for his son's whereabouts.

However, the final result was still fruitless. Xue Deshan's hair turned half white, and he still didn't see his son return, nor did he receive any news.

Finally, he thought of his son's infatuation with his junior sister Hong Lin, and also learned that before his son's disappearance, he, like Hong Lin, had not attended Chen Changsheng's celebration banquet.

Xue Deshan believed that there was something fishy about this matter, and perhaps Hong Lin knew the truth. So, he traveled across mountains and rivers to Wangjiang City!

The immense pressure of Qi made Hong Lin unable to breathe, but Chen Changsheng casually released a surge of true Qi to block it.

Zong Hong understood and immediately stepped forward, frowning and saying, "Hall Master Xue, we don't understand what you're saying. Has something happened to Senior Brother Xue?"

"The night before you and Madam Wang left, my son Xue Yong disappeared. And that night, the only people who didn't attend the celebration banquet were my son and Hong Lin."

Xue Deshan's eyes were like lightning as he stared straight at Hong Lin, his voice booming, "Where did you go that night? Were you with my son?"

"No, I was practicing that night and lost track of time. When I arrived at the restaurant, the banquet had already ended. I even ran into Senior Brother Chen and Senior Brother Zong!"

Hong Lin spoke with conviction, her eyes firm and unwavering.

Such a long time had passed, and the sadness and fear in her heart had long faded. Just now, she had only been flustered by the pressure of Qi.

Hearing this, Xue Deshan turned his gaze to Chen Changsheng, who nodded slightly and said, "Hall Master Xue must be tired from traveling. Why not sit down and rest first? We can't provide any help with Senior Brother Xue's matter, we're really sorry."

"Hall Master Xue, rest for a while, don't exhaust yourself. I will have the Wang family pay attention to Xue Yong's news, and I believe some clues will be obtained soon."

Wang Jiayun spoke in a timely manner.

She didn't know Xue Yong's whereabouts, but her gentle nature made her habitually offer comfort.

Xue Deshan stood in place and remained silent for a long while, then sighed and sat down.

He had thought that he would learn the truth from Hong Lin, but from the other party's expression, she didn't seem to be lying. Xue Deshan couldn't use coercive methods, and in the end, he could only choose to compromise.

His son wouldn't disappear for no reason, he had most likely been murdered, and his body was nowhere to be found.

As Xue Deshan sat down, tears that had been suppressed for a long time flowed uncontrollably. The tall and strong old man hugged his face and cried out in the courtyard, his majestic back looking lonely and desolate.

Seeing this, Hong Lin opened her red lips several times, wanting to tell him the truth.

She turned her gaze to Chen Changsheng for his opinion, and the latter sighed heavily, transmitting his voice with true Qi, "I don't care, but the key is that the truth may cause Xue Deshan to hold a grudge. If you are mentally prepared, then tell him."

Chen Changsheng's current strength was no longer afraid of Xue Deshan's revenge. The worst result of telling the truth would only threaten Hong Lin's life.

Hong Lin's pretty face was solemn, and she had already made a decision in her heart.

She mustered her courage and walked up to Xue Deshan, softly saying, "Hall Master Xue, please move aside, I have something I want to tell you!"

Hong Lin whispered about the events of that night. Xue Deshan's face changed, and a thick Qi mixed with killing intent burst out of his body.

Chen Changsheng silently watched the other party, ready to save people.

But the next second, the killing intent that Xue Deshan had gathered was like a deflated ball, disappearing in the blink of an eye.

Hearing the end of the story, only bitterness and helplessness remained on his face, and he sat down on the stone bench in a dispirited manner.

Because if he had to blame someone for this matter, he could only blame himself for not paying enough attention to his education. He had personally cultivated his son into an extremist.

He killed Hong Lin's lover under the guise of infatuation, and then impulsively had murderous thoughts towards Chen Changsheng. He was blinded by love and only wanted to kill everything in front of him, ultimately paying the price with his life.

A small matter had evolved into this, and Xue Deshan didn't know how to evaluate it, but the pain of losing his son was difficult to quell.

Chen Changsheng strode over and took out a bottle of pills, handing it over, "Hall Master Xue, this is a Qi and Blood Pill that I personally refined. It can replenish your depleted Qi and blood, allowing your body to reach a higher level and return to a youthful state."

The first half of the sentence had no problems, and compensating with a Qi and Blood Pill was a consolation.

But the second half of the sentence… caused the expressions of several people present to become strange.

Was this implying that Hall Master Xue could work harder to have another child after taking the Qi and Blood Pill?

The corners of Xue Deshan's mouth twitched slightly, but he still honestly accepted the pill. After his body recovered, he could indeed create another account. This time, he would cultivate his offspring well!

Wang Jiayun, who didn't understand, noticed the strange atmosphere, so she suggested in a low voice, "I've had the kitchen prepare a banquet. Shall we go have some wine now to welcome Hall Master Xue and wash away the dust?"

"Thank you, Madam Wang, I'm bothering you!"

Xue Deshan stood up, dragging his tired body. Hong Lin and Madam Wang led the way in front.

The setting sun shone on Xue Deshan's body, and his majestic back looked slightly desolate from afar.

Zong Hong stood behind, staring intently, lost in thought, "Senior Brother Chen, has Hall Master Xue let go?"

Chen Changsheng touched his chin and shrugged, "I'm not sure, but people can't live in hatred forever. Even if he can't let go today, time will slowly help him wear it down."

… …

Night fell, and the moonlight sprinkled down like water.

Outside Wangjiang City, a golden light suddenly lit up, outlining a two-meter-long talisman pattern in the air, the golden light dazzling and mysterious.

Bang!

Suddenly, a figure flew out of the talisman pattern out of thin air, like a kite with a broken string, crashing to the ground, stirring up a cloud of dust.

The smoke and dust slowly dispersed, revealing a gray-robed man covered in blood, walking out in a disheveled state.

He covered the wound on his severed arm, the blood soaking his Daoist robe, muttering to himself, "Using two Realm-Breaking Talismans in a row, they shouldn't be able to catch up to me, right? Cough cough cough…"

A mouthful of black blood was spat out, and the man's aura became particularly weak as a result.

Feeling the surrounding spiritual energy concentration, his face couldn't help but turn gloomy, "Such thin spiritual energy, could this be the realm of mortals?"

Thin spiritual energy meant that he couldn't quickly replenish his true Qi. If he encountered a gangster, he could lose his life at any time!

The man hurriedly hid his figure, like a ghost, silently sneaking into the city.
