Rebirth of Devouring Dragon Emperor

Chapter 393 Old Friend (Second Update)
Han Yi was probably around 27 or 28 years old, a few years older than Ye Qing, and could be considered half a friend of Ye Qing.

He is the only person who can be called a friend since Ye Qing came to southern Jiangsu.

The reason why it is only counted as half is that although they have chatted a few times, they are not close friends. After that, as Han Yi and his family moved out of the villa complex halfway up the mountain, they have no contact anymore.

Han Yi is not from a big family, but a wealthy family. His father was lucky in the early years and seized the opportunity to make his small company grow rapidly. Later, he got on the big ship of Murong family and had smooth sailing all the way. After a few years, he barely squeezed into the upper circle of southern Jiangsu.

Although the Han family was only at the bottom of the upper circle in southern Jiangsu and could not be compared with the leading big families, it had initially gained influence. It was also for this reason that Han Yi was qualified to attend Murong Xue's wedding banquet and thus got to know Ye Qing.

Unlike other people who looked down on Ye Qing, Han Yi did not look down on Ye Qing at all.
Firstly, he was very self-aware and knew that the Han family was no match for the Murong family, so he would never get involved in Ye Qing's affairs, nor would he hang out with the young masters of the Murong and Fang families.

Secondly, he has good personalities and is a good judge of others. He feels that Ye Qing is not as stupid as he looks, and it is very likely that he will have a place in the Murong family in the future.

So, when most people disliked Ye Qing, he did the opposite and gained Ye Qing's attention, making him one of the few people at the wedding banquet who did not dislike him.

Coincidentally, Han Yi also lived in the villa complex halfway up the mountain, not far from Villa No. 1 where Ye Qing and Murong Xue lived, so after that, the two had met many times and chatted several times.

However, the content of their chats is limited to personal chats, and they do not have in-depth discussions on any particular aspect, so their relationship can only be considered as ordinary friends.

However, Ye Qing was quite happy when chatting with Han Yi.

He admired Han Yi's words, deeds and values, so he considered Han Yi his friend in his heart.

It's a pity that their friendship didn't have the chance to deepen.

Less than half a year after he moved into the hillside villa complex, Han Yi moved out, and left in a hurry.

He didn't even have time to meet Ye Qing, he just sent him a text message to inform him of this information.

Afterwards, he asked some people who knew information about the Han family, and the news he got was that the Han family seemed to be in big trouble.

That’s all, he couldn’t find out more.

Soon, Han Yi changed his number, and since then, the two completely lost contact. Until Ye Qing left the earth two years later, he never saw Han Yi again.

I never thought that I would see him here today.

A smile appeared on Ye Qing's face.

Meeting an old friend in a foreign land is always a pleasant thing, not to mention that they have not seen each other for many years. For Han Yi, it was four or five years, but for Ye Qing, it was three thousand years.

And Han Yi is the only friend on Su Nan's side who is recognized by him.

"Why are you here?"

Ye Qing looked at Han Yi and asked curiously.

Compared to the calm and composed Han Yi in the past, he has changed a lot now.

First of all, his face became haggard. A young man under 30 years old, he looked like he was in his 30s, which was not what a monk should have.

Secondly, his temperament changed.

Han Yi used to give people an optimistic impression, but now, all his former cheerfulness has disappeared, replaced by a deepness that cannot be concealed.

Ye Qing could easily get a lot of information from Han Yi's eyes and face.

Han Yi hasn't had a good life in recent years.

He must have encountered a great change.

There was hatred in his eyes, and it was obvious that his change was related to others.

He guessed that something might have happened to the Han family, which led to him becoming what he is now.

"It's hard to describe in words."

Han Yi heard this, paused for a long time, shook his head and said: "Let's not talk about my affairs. But you, why are you here?"

Ye Qing was surprised that Han Yi appeared here, but Han Yi was even more shocked when he saw Ye Qing here.

It is really magical that two people who were ordinary people when they were in contact before, now meet again and have both become monks.

Why is Ye Qing here?

This is Han Yi’s question.

"come and see."

Ye Qing answered casually, paused, and suddenly said: "Let's talk about your business. Maybe I can help you." Han Yi's cultivation level is now the ninth level of the acquired realm, which is not very low, but definitely not high, especially for Ye Qing.

As a friend, he has the obligation to ask about the situation, and if possible, he doesn't mind helping Han Yi.

Because he could see that Han Yi not only held hatred in his heart, but his life was probably not going well either. So if he could give him a hand, he would.

"me?"

Han Yi looked at Ye Qing. After seeing the determination in Ye Qing's eyes, he fell silent, then shook his head and smiled bitterly.

"Well, if you want to know, it's okay to tell you."

At this point, his voice suddenly dropped: “The Han family is gone.”

"Ok?"

Ye Qing frowned and didn't speak immediately.

"Someone has set their sights on the Han family's business and wants to attack us. My parents heard about it and took countermeasures. I moved for this reason."

“Then, not long after we moved, my parents were in a car accident.”

Han Yi said: "They were in two different cars, driving on different roads, not even in the same place, but in two different cities."

"However, they were involved in a car accident together, less than three minutes apart. After being sent to the hospital, both of them died. The perpetrators fled and have not been arrested so far."

Han Yi's voice was very light, as if he was just narrating something, but Ye Qing was still keenly aware of the tremendous hatred in his words.

Ye Qing was silent for a while.

"Do you know who did it?"

Ye Qing asked.

This kind of thing is certainly not accidental, it is 100% murder, and the murderer is from an important background and has great power.

Therefore, don’t count on ordinary police officers to solve the case, you can only rely on yourself.

"Once we have a suspect, we are almost certain of it."

Han Yi said: "But I'm not sure. It's not that I can't be sure, but I can't continue to investigate until I get the final answer."

Upon hearing this, Ye Qing nodded.

"So, I started looking for a way to take revenge. Two years ago, I woke up by chance and became a cultivator. Then I joined a sect and practiced hard, just so that one day, I could kill my enemies with my own hands."

"It's a pity that my current strength is far from enough. I can't even ask the sect to help me, because even they can't afford to provoke those people."

Han Yi said this, exhaled, and suddenly laughed: "Okay, let's not talk about this, there's no point in talking about it now."

"What about you? You are also a monk now, right? Are you also one of the awakened ones in the past two years?"

"I've known for a long time that you're extraordinary. You're definitely not as bad as those people say. On the contrary, you're better than all of them. Now it seems that I was right."

Ye Qing smiled when he heard that.

"That's it."

Ye Qing nodded.

Han Yi nodded and was about to say something when suddenly a voice sounded from behind him: "Han Yi, where are you? Come here!"

It was a voice full of hostility. After hearing the voice, Han Yi's face changed, and then he whispered awkwardly: "Ye Qing, let's not talk about it for now. My uncle called me, I have to go first. See you again if we are lucky."

After saying that, he turned around hurriedly and said loudly: "I'm coming! Sorry, uncle, I just saw something beautiful and stayed a little longer. I'm sorry to trouble you..."

Watching Han Yi approaching a dark-faced fat man, nodding and bowing to apologize, Ye Qing didn't say anything, but frowned slightly.

Looking at the arrogant attitude of his uncle who kept scolding, it was definitely not due to his personality, but he really regarded Han Yi as an ant and insulted him at will.

Han Yi's situation seemed to be worse than he had expected.

I attended a friend's wedding and ran around all day. I'm tired and don't have time to write. I'll update it tomorrow when I get back. I'm very sorry!
