"Xiao Fan, this matter has been in my heart for many years. I originally didn't plan to talk about it, but after what happened not long ago, I made up my mind. There are some things you should know!" Xia Taishan said in a deep voice, his face showing an unprecedented seriousness.
These words piqued Chen Fan's full interest.
Chen Fan said, "Elder Xia, just say it directly!"
Xia Taishan nodded, "I know some things about your origins. The premise of saying this is whether you want to know! Of course, this is also Master Hua's intention!"
Master Hua was Chen Fan's master on Niutou Mountain, a terrifyingly capable and elusive old trickster, though he considered himself an old immortal.
Chen Fan was extremely surprised to hear this and said, "Elder Xia, when you ask like this, you've probably already prepared to tell me!"
"Just say it!"
Xia Taishan nodded, "As Master Hua said, you are very smart!"
He sighed, "This matter is related to your biological parents. I learned from Master Hua that their surname is Chen, and they abandoned you in the mountains, leaving a blood letter stating that if you could grow up, you must avenge them no matter what!"
Old Master Hua had never told him these things.
Upon hearing this, his heart felt like it was struck by lightning, making his head buzz.
Chen Fan froze in place.
"I originally didn't plan to say it..." Xia Taishan sighed, leaving many things unsaid, very cryptically.
Chen Fan forced himself to calm down, took a deep breath, and said, "Please continue!"
Xia Taishan said, "I don't know much, only this. However, Master Hua also mentioned that when your martial realm surpasses the Grandmaster realm, you should go to Kunlong Island! You will find the information you seek there!"
The martial realms, from external force to internal energy, then to transformation and Grandmaster, were almost a heaven and earth apart for each stage. In this era of declining martial arts, even the Transformation realm was considered an extreme powerhouse, let alone Grandmasters and Great Grandmasters – they were terrifying legends.
Fortunately, before descending the mountain, Chen Fan had already elevated his realm to the Grandmaster realm. He thought this level of cultivation would allow him to overcome everything.
Who would have thought that the information revealed by Xia Taishan would force him to start improving his realm all over again?
Chen Fan, after his extreme shock, regained a completely calm expression, devoid of any emotion. He said, "Alright, I know what to do!"
Chen Fan had already decided to increase his internal energy by refining pills.
Besides this, there were no other good methods.
Xia Taishan sighed again, "I don't know if I should have said all this!"
Chen Fan said, "Elder Xia, you don't need to overthink it. I will handle some things myself!"
"Yes, yes, that's good!" Xia Taishan added, "Oh, right, Master Hua also said that Bingqing possesses a rare extreme yin body, which would be of great help to your realm advancement. He also predicted that you would face a calamity, and only Bingqing could help you resolve it!"
Hearing this, Chen Fan frowned, inwardly cursing the old man. Good heavens, he hadn't expected that old fellow to have calculated everything. It turned out that his descent from the mountain was also just a part of his plan! Thinking of this, Chen Fan suddenly felt like scolding the old man!
What was he playing at...
"Okay, I understand!" Chen Fan nodded insincerely.
