Meanwhile, in the Chu residence in Fenghai, China, an elder slowly walked out of her room with staggering steps. It was a rare sunny afternoon, so she wanted to go to the garden.
Meanwhile, a large black dog lay in the garden, resting underthe sunlight. When the elder came into the garden, it rushed to her and shook its tail.
It was a cold day, but the black dog still stuck out its tongue and panted heavily.
The elder smiled and shook her head upon seeing the dog. “Blackie, are you hungry again? I made steamed buns yesterday. Let me get a few for you.”
The elder patted the dog and went into the kitchen. She lifted a pot cover and took out a few steaming buns before throwing them to the black dog.
Woof! Woof!
The black dog barked excitedly at the elder as if thanking her.
Then, it came over and licked her hand before moving away to eat the buns.
The elder watched the dog and sighed. “Even Blackie knows how to be thankful, unlike a certain person.”
At this thought, the elder suddenly looked into the distance and mumbled, “I believe that brat has escaped back to China by now. He is still too young and impulsive. How could he not stop and think about his actions? Although the Chu family has grown weak, they have accumulated power over the centuries. On the other hand, a brat like him has only been in this world for a few years. Does he think it is that easy to bring the Chu family down?”
The elder sighed before continuing, “Still, it is good for him to face obstacles. He would learn nothing if things went too smoothly. It is vital to know how to get back up after one has fallen. I hope this challenge can teach him a lesson. It will prepare him to face stronger enemies and greater challenges in the future.”
Although the elder lived deep within this old residence, she could still sense many things that happened to Ye Fan.
The elder felt that Ye Fan had already escaped the worst dangers.
She could make her phantom appear to him with the help of the Sword ofYunyang.
The elder believed that no matter how much Chu Yuan wanted to kill Ye Fan, he would not dare to attempt assassination again and openly contradict himself.
By now, it had been days since she made her phantom appear.
The elder estimated that Ye Fan should have already reached China.
“That brat will probably come to see me soon,” the elder muttered with an affectionate and warm tone.
There were many descendants of the Chu family all over the world.
However, among the younger generations, Ye Fan was the only one that caught her attention and liking.
If she had to choose another one, it would be the daughter of the Tang family, Tang Yun.
She remembered when Ye Fan lived in the Chu residence when he was little. Whenever Ye Fan's father had beaten him up and injured him, he would come to her for treatment.
Since then, whenever he came across hurdles that he could not overcome, he would come to see her too.
Previously, Ye Fan got into grave danger in Japan.
At the time, he ran to her here and managed to survive.
Therefore, she expected Ye Fan would seek her medical treatment once he had returned from Chu Sect.
However, she had been waiting for him for a few days and still had not heard anything from him.
“Could he have gone home to spend time with his wife?” The elder shook her head and smiled.
As she was muttering to herself, she suddenly sensed something, prompting her to look up immediately toward the east of China.
Then, she felt an unbearable sadness rising from her heart.
“Is that my grandson? Is that Ye Fan?” the elder whispered.
Suddenly, she cursed, “B*stards! The Chu family is worse than animals! How could they bear to commit such cruelty?”
The elder shook all over, and her eyes bloodshot.
In the east of China, clouds swirled above the roaring sea.
Suddenly, redness like blood stained the sky.
If one stood in the distance, one would see the azure blue sky suddenly turning blood red.
Everything turned silent, and time seemed to stop as a man fell.
The clouds and the waves stopped moving. The wind disappeared.
