Chapter 410 - What Has He Gone Through?
Tea stall.
Liang Yongqi buried his head and swept all the food in front of him. The tea, a bun, all of them were refilled constantly. He was really wolfing down all the food.
Gou’zi really couldn’t bear to watch him. What did he actually go through to turn into this?
Lin Fan didn’t ask about the specific situation and just let him to eat more. He really looked like someone who hadn’t eaten in a very long time.
But there was something he couldn’t understand.
Logically speaking, this shouldn’t have happened.
Liang Yongqi wasn’t strong but he was Martial Path Grade Four. Compared to normal people, that was much better, so why was his life so sad now?
Liang Yongqi shoved the food into his mouth. He ate a bun in one bite and then drank a cup of tea. He ate 10 of them in a row before burping. He was resting in the chair while he looked up and tried to calm himself down.
“Slow down, there is no need to be in such a rush.” Liang Yongqi was afraid that Liang Yongqi would choke on a bun.
Liang Yongqi drank a mouthful of tea, “I am fine, I am full now.”
Liang Yongqi was also a rich family young master and had never gone hungry. Moreover, he rarely ate buns and usually ate those delicacies.
Lin Fan asked him straight up, “Where did you go after Martial Path Mountain? Although your cultivation isn’t high, you shouldn’t be going through such a bad life, right? You actually became a beggar and had no food to eat at all.”
Liang Yongqi sighed, “This is a long story. I have never imagined and dared to imagine what I have gone through. After leaving Martial Path Mountain, I went to You City but as you said, the Alliance had occupied that place. I was too weak and if they found me I was basically dead. So, I didn’t dare to step up…”
He said many things and mainly described what he went through after he arrived in You City.
The overall description was quite clear.
It was indeed very tragic.
Liang Yongqi didn’t find his family’s corpse in You City. At the same time, that place was too dangerous with the Alliance members patrolling around the clock. With how weak he was, obviously he didn’t dare to behave arrogantly.
He then returned along the same path.
On the way, he faced some trouble.
He bumped into some bandits.
Martial Path Grade Four seemed decent but facing bandits, he was a useless normal person.
Not only did they steal all his silver, but because he didn’t have as much silver as the bandits had expected, he was badly beaten up.
If that was solely the case, then it would be still alright.
He also faced dangers outdoors and nearly died. When he managed to flee, he was devoid of energy and injured.
Along with You City being destroyed and his family’s situation unknown, he broke down.
He was prepared to die just like that.
Liang Yongqi and Gou’zi looked at one another and sympathized with what Liang Yongqi went through.
Unlucky, he was just too unlucky.
“Yongqi, no matter what, you are the grand disciple of Martial Path Mountain. As a Sect Leader, I feel heartpained for you. It is good that you are back. Just stay in Martial Path Mountain and don’t think about too much.”
Lin Fan consoled him.
What else could he do? Since things had already happened, then it was good that he was still alive.
“Wu wu wu!”
Liang Yongqi cried. Maybe after going through those things, his mental state worsened. When he met Lin Fan and Gou’zi, he couldn’t help but tear up.
Gou’zi consoled him and patted his back. What a pitiful kid.
He was totally different from the young master Liang that always quarreled with him in You City.
“Eh?”
Suddenly, Liang Yongqi noticed something. Originally, Liang Yongqi didn’t have any faith but now, faith was actually produced.
Although it was the lowest quality grey faith, that was enough to show that it was a good start.
The only thing was that the faith production was quite weird. He didn’t do anything, so why was there faith?
Was it because he had suffered a lot outside and his arrival was like a god appearing in his life. Was it because he gave Liang Yongqi hope which was why there was faith?
That was possible. Maybe if he had the chance he could study it even deeper.
“Look at that man crying there. He is so ugly.”
At this moment, an unfriendly voice spread from the side.
Lin Fan saw an old man along with three younger people. The one who spoke was a girl who judged Liang Yongqi’s actions like she was mocking him.
The old man didn’t stop her. After looking at Lin Fan and the others, he didn’t hold them in any regard.
The other two guys just laughed and didn’t say anything.
They weren’t going to eat in the tea shop, they were just passing by.
When Lin Fan heard the girl’s words, he was a little annoyed.
Liang Yongqi was Martial Path Mountain’s grand disciple. You, an outsider, dared to mock him? That was the same as mocking Martial Path Mountain.
If this was before, he really wouldn’t argue with that girl.
But it was totally different now.
He wanted to develop Martial Path Mountain and treated that matter really seriously. Especially with Liang Yongqi’s identity and status. To others, it might not have been important, but in Martial Path Mountain, it was extremely significant.
“So what if he is crying? What does it have to do with you? Even if he looks ugly he isn’t uglier than you.” Lin Fan glanced at her and replied without giving her any face at all.
Eh?
The entire place was silent.
The group of them who were walking away stopped.
The girl didn’t expect him to dare retort her. She was so furious that her face turned red.
The old man squinted and stared at Lin Fan. He said calmly, “Young man, you should speak less. Problems arise because you talk too much.”
“Keke.” Lin Fan glanced at him. “Problems have appeared more than once, but as they say the problems that arise have all ended up disappearing. May I ask what problems you are referring to?”
When he was in You City he was already so harsh but that was because he had his father supporting him.
Today, those conflicts were mostly gone.
He didn’t need anyone to support him now.
This was because he was able to settle most things with his current strength. As for those things he couldn’t solve, it would mean that people like Zhu Daoshen had appeared.
But now that he was Dao Realm Stage Two Dimension Control, it was tough to kill him. If he wanted to run, without 3 or 4 top expert blocking him, he wouldn’t be stopped.
“You are asking to die.”
The two guys standing behind the old man were pissed.
This young man was actually so arrogant.
He was pretty much asking to die.
But right as they were about to attack, the old man stopped them.
The old man said, “Kid, don’t you think that you are a little hot-tempered? Young people should be low profile especially before your wings grow. Otherwise, you will bring unneeded trouble to yourself.”
Shortly after, the old man laughed out loud.
“I didn’t expect that I would talk so much to such a kid. This is a good opportunity for you.”
Lin Fan looked at the old man act cool and didn’t expose the old man. He just wanted to see how long the old man would continue to do that. The reason being was that he felt like the old man was a little proud.
“Are you done?” Lin Fan asked.
The old man’s expression changed and it was obvious that he was stunned by those words.
For some reason, he even wanted to spit out a mouthful of blood.
His words were just so infuriating.
The two young men behind him clenched their fists and veins appeared on their necks. They were so furious that they wanted to beat Lin Fan up.
Too much.
It was just too much.
What they hated the most was people acting arrogantly in front of them. Such an arrogant person was just an animal.
“Kid, do you know who this is? If you don’t know, I can tell you. He is Celestial Ascending Sect Elder Zhang Xuan and has extraordinary abilities. Him talking to you is already your blessing. You not only didn’t cherish it, but are also provoking him?”
When the guy introduced the old man, for some reason he straightened his back. He was introducing other people but it felt like he was introducing himself.
Celestial Ascending Sect?
Lin Fan had never heard of such a sect but felt a little confused. This place was not under any sect. Although it was under the Imperial Dynasty, they didn’t really manage this place.
What was this Celestial Ascending Sect doing here?
Were they here to snatch territory?
That might have been a possibility.
“Celestial Ascending Sect is an elder, so is your Celestial Ascending Sect considered a top sect?” Lin Fan asked.
He had to understand the background of this Celestial Ascending Sect.
If they were a top sect, then he would have to treat them seriously.
If they weren’t, then he didn’t need to worry and would just casually deal with them.
Zhang Xuan said, “But you are right, we are indeed a top sect. You should know that in such a secluded area, you might still meet someone you can’t afford to offend.”
“Since you are young, I don’t want to bully you. Kneel and apologize to my disciple and I will let this matter go.”
The girl said unhappily, “Master, he insulted me. Even if he kowtows to me, it won’t make me feel any better. I want him to become my slave.”
“Junior Sister, what is the point of leaving him by your side?” The guy said. He didn’t want any guy by her side as that would make things awkward.
When Gou’zi heard their words, he looked towards them with a dark and sunken gaze.
These people actually treated Young Master as sheep to the slaughter.
If Young Master hadn’t allowed him to attack, he would have definitely taught them a lesson.
As for that old man, his cultivation might have been higher than his. But he didn’t fear anything.
Liang Yongqi stopped crying. At the same time, he was stunned. What was going on with these people? He was just crying to the side.
Were they not allowing him to cry at all?
Moreover, he didn’t know them, so why did they mock him from so far away?
Now, the Sect Leader was in a conflict with them.
As the grand disciple, he should have jumped out to protect the honor of the sect.
But he knew his situation.
He was just too weak.
It was better if he didn’t embarrass himself.
