My path to immortality began with my posting to guard Dawancun.

Chapter 64 Unexpected Visitor
Shen Changchuan left the courtyard.
After changing his clothes, he went straight to the market and found Guo Cheng, the head of the Li family, and others.

He told them that he was going to return the next day.

Let them each prepare.

Such a hasty decision,
Everyone was somewhat surprised.

According to usual practice, the market day in Wujiaji will end in a few days.

In these final few days, some smaller vendors may choose not to continue with the main group for various reasons, and they may have the opportunity to lower prices and clear out their remaining goods.

Even some large merchants may have to clear out some of their low-value inventory because they receive a lot of high-value items.

Also because of this,

During this period of time,
There is a certain probability of obtaining something of relatively high value at a relatively low price.

In previous years, they would stay until the market closed before leaving.

After all, for these low-level cultivators, spirit stones are hard to come by.

We need to be as careful with our money as possible in our daily lives.
Purchase what you need at a lower price and save on every spirit stone.

It's just a small fluctuation in price.

That's enough to make them spend half a day haggling over the price.

They were naturally unwilling to leave so soon.

Although he was unwilling.

But no one raised any questions or voiced any objections.

There was no other way; the road back was fraught with danger. If it weren't for Young Master Shen leading the way, they probably would have been robbed clean shortly after leaving the market!

and,

"When we arrived earlier, we were attacked by men in black on the way. We fled without a fight, which left a bad impression on Young Master Shen."

"Although we used our connections to help Young Master Shen solve the problem of the low purchase price of spirit grain, it is still unknown whether this small favor can erase Young Master Shen's resentment towards us for fleeing without a fight."

"Until Young Master Shen has completely forgotten about that incident, we should avoid provoking him."

After Shen Changchuan turned and left,
A sigh,
The people stood there looking at each other, and although they didn't speak, the meaning between them was self-evident.

no way,
They were just a humble little family, and it was already a stroke of luck that they were able to pass on their lineage to their generation.

That's all we can do.

Shen Changchuan, who had already left, had no idea what the people behind him were thinking.

But even if I knew, it wouldn't matter.

He has already made the decision to leave.
So whether they oppose it or not, it doesn't really matter.

But at this moment, he

Clearly, they no longer had the mind to think about these things.

Inside the inn,
Shen Changchuan, who had just returned from outside,

He stood there, stunned.
Don't dare to move.

Sweat even beaded on his forehead.

"May I ask who you are, senior?"

Looking at the figure that had appeared in the house at some unknown time, Shen Changchuan bowed and clasped his hands in a respectful gesture.

Although this person's aura was ordinary, like that of a mortal, making it impossible for him to sense the other party's true nature.

But that trembling fear originating from the very soul, that terrifying premonition of death at the level of life, clearly told him...

This person is definitely above the Qi Refining Realm cultivators!

Out-of-body,

This is definitely a powerful expert at the Nascent Soul stage!
A storm raged within Shen Changchuan's heart.

Who is this person?

Why would someone like that come looking for him?!

For a time,

Shen Changchuan was completely stunned.

"Hmm, it seems your perception is quite good." "Your perception is sufficient, and your soul is not bad either. It seems that the bottleneck of the late stage of Qi Refining is no longer a big problem for you."

The visitor glanced at Shen Changchuan with surprise, then spoke as if it were a casual chat.

But under that gaze,

Shen Changchuan felt as if all his secrets and cultivation levels had been completely exposed!

There are absolutely no reservations!
At that moment, even his soul trembled instinctively!

"Don't worry, I'm not a bad person."

“I am Shen Tingchu, and by definition, I should be considered your uncle.”

Shen Tingchu said casually.

however,
Upon hearing that they were members of the Shen clan of Tiannan, Shen Changchuan felt no relief; instead, his pupils contracted slightly.

"Oh, judging from your appearance, have you heard of my name?"

Shen Tingchu seemed to have seen through Shen Changchuan's thoughts and said with some surprise.

"Um, senior, I am currently the town garrison commander of Dawan Village."

"Back then, it was you who came from the west with your sword and suppressed the Hu family's rebellion with a flick of your wrist, bringing Dawan Village under the Shen family's control."

"Now that you are running Dawan Village, I have naturally heard of your great name."

Having his inner thoughts seen through by Shen Tingchu, Shen Changchuan could only tell the truth.

Yes,

Twenty years ago,
The Shen family's Nascent Soul realm expert, who came to exterminate the Hu family, which had dominated Dawancun for over a century, after being reported for the death of a member of a collateral branch of the family, was a powerful figure at the Out-of-Body stage.
His name is Shen Tingchu!
Not long ago,

In order to investigate the situation of the Hu family back then, Shen Changchuan had naturally heard of this extremely important name.

just,

Why is the other party here?
And they even came after him?

Shen Changchuan's mind raced.

However, he dared not show it on his face again.

"I see. It seems you are a thoughtful person."

Shen Tingchu gave Shen Changchuan a deep look, his meaning unclear.

But he didn't say anything more.

"I wonder if you have come here on important business, senior? If I am capable of doing so, I will go through fire and water without hesitation!"

"No need for that. No matter what, you are still a descendant of the clan leader, and I don't want to get myself into trouble."

"You don't need to worry. The reason I'm here is simply because that kid Chongshan discovered something interesting and sent me a message talisman, which is why I'm here."

Between talking,

Shen Tingchu looked at Shen Changchuan with great interest.

"I never expected that the clan leader's insignificant illegitimate son, who was only at the third level of Qi Refining more than half a year ago, would rapidly increase his strength by three levels in a short period of time after leaving the Shen family compound, and even master two perfect-level spells!"

As the ancients said, "The sky is high enough for birds to fly, and the sea is wide enough for fish to leap." The ancients were truly right!

He stared intently at Shen Changchuan and sighed aloud.

to be frank,
Even though Shen Tingchu was a true cultivator at the Nascent Soul stage, he had seen and experienced a great deal over the years.

Seeing Shen Changchuan at this moment, they were truly stunned!

After leaving the great vortex of Tiannan City, he rapidly advanced three realms in this barren land within half a year.

This cannot be explained by mere chance.

The only possibility,
This kid in front of us has been exceptionally talented since childhood, so talented that it makes people envious.

But at the same time,
He is also very smart.
From a young age, he was well aware of his humble origins and the dangers of living in the Shen family compound, so he deliberately suppressed his cultivation and tried his best to hide his talent.

This has led to the current situation.
After more than a decade of cultivation in the Shen family compound, he had only reached the third level of Qi Induction.

As a result, after being played out,
Once freed from constraints,
From then on, it was a meteoric rise!
