Chapter 733 -218: Diverse Experiences _1
The seventh birthday quietly arrived.
Like every year, the single mother meticulously prepared a banquet.
Link patiently endured and joined in the festivities with his single mother, cooperating fully throughout the event.
The next day, an unexpected change occurred.
Relatives from the single mother’s family came over.
Two elegantly dressed young men, bearing some resemblance to the single mother, came accompanied by a group of servants and set the house where Link had lived for seven years on fire.
The single mother desperately tried to stop them, but to no avail.
Having lost her cultivation, and now frail, she was incapable of freeing herself from the grip of two maidservants.
“Bastard!” exclaimed
one young man with more malice in his eyes than the others, who stared harshly at Link. Despite the sudden changes, Link remained unmoved. The man spat out these offensive words.
“Third Brother, mind your manners!”
The more mature-looking young man promptly reprimanded him, “Do not tarnish the dignity of our Jiang Family.”
“Hmmph!”
The malicious young man had no choice but to shut his mouth under his elder brother’s stern gaze.
“Please calm the young lady down, we are taking her home.”
The mature young man didn’t even glance at Link as he commanded the two maidservants handling the single mother.
“Yes, Young Master.”
The maidservants replied in unison.
“Jiang Dehao, what are you trying to do?”
Realising something was wrong, the single mother struggled to free herself and run to Link.
However, one of the maidservants gently pressed her nape, causing her to go limp and faint.
“Let’s go.”
With a wave of his hand, the mature young man, Jiang Dehao, left nonchalantly along with the malicious young man and a group of servants.
Link turned around, looking at his single mother who was being hauled into a luxurious carriage. His face was calm, his eyes tranquil, but there was anger boiling within him.
When the caravan of carriages had traveled far enough to disappear from sight, Link immediately left, taking nothing with him.
Inside the caravan,
the mature young man, Jiang Dehao, sat facing the malicious young man, Jiang Demiao.
The single mother lay unconscious between them, covered with a quilt.
“Big brother, should we just let that bastard go?”
Manifesting his inner nature, Jiang Demiao was rather violent and bloodthirsty.
Between his words, he hinted at wanting to kill the bastard who had brought shame upon his Jiang Clan.
“What difference does it make to let him go or not?”
Jiang Dehao looked at his pallid, weak sister with a mixture of pity and frustration. He spoke with indifference. “Killing him won’t restore the losses the Jiang family has suffered over these years, but would only cause your sister more grief. Have you forgotten who has been resolving all your past misdeeds?”
“I haven’t forgotten!”
Jiang Demiao twisted his neck and argued stubbornly. “I will always remember my Second Sister’s kindness. But right and wrong are distinct matters, this is different. You’ve also seen the files. My Second Sister’s fall into such a predicament, her cultivation being ruined, was all caused by that bastard. A Female Sword Immortal from the Normalization Realm can’t even deal with a maidservant in the spiritual energy realm, it irks me beyond tolerance!”
Finally, Jiang Dehao looked up at Jiang Demiao. After staring at him deeply for a while, he indifferently said, “There are certain things you don’t understand, things I’ve never told you. The family decided to disregard your Second Sister’s wishes, forcing her to agree to an engagement with the Zhong Family, in order to resolve the trouble you caused. Initially, your Second Sister was already in love with Lin Nantian, she didn’t run away after the engagement.”
“This…”
Jiang Demiao’s face changed.
He was both humiliated and enraged, absolutely shocked.

“Let bygones be bygones, do not bring it up again.”
Jiang Dehao waved his hand, seemingly trying to clear away the dirt he hadn’t been able to clean up all this time. “As for the son of Lin Nantian, that turtle who retracted into his shell, I, Jiang Dehao, can choose to act as if he doesn’t exist.”
“Ah!”
Jiang Demiao sighed deeply upon hearing these words.
He had tried to find Lin Nantian for trouble, searched the entire Southern Pugilistic World, but was never able to find him.
The rage burning within him with even greater intensity had nowhere to vent, and that was really bothersome.
On the other side,
Link ran to a secluded corner, dug a hole, took off all his clothes, and buried them in the hole.
Even the longevity lock that the single mother had given him, which he had been wearing around his neck, was wrapped in the clothes.
The stark-naked young boy ventured into the mountains alone, reached a stream with great speed, and meticulously bathed himself.
Once he was sure he didn’t have any scent on his body, Link left the stream. He went round the mountain and found a rather inconspicuous cave and crawled into it.
This cave was hidden behind a waterfall, making it a great shelter. It was spacious and dry on the inside.
Four years ago, at a birthday banquet, Link unexpectedly learned some information from his single mother, who had gotten drunk. Since then, he started to prepare a fallback for himself.
After several years of preparation, Link had set up several safe havens like this Water Curtain Cave in the mountains.
Each of these havens was quite far from the others. Over the past few years, Link had taken various opportunities to prepare these havens, which was no easy task.
Now, they were finally of use.
Clothed in dry clothes, Link sat on a natural stone stool, closed his eyes, and recalled the things that had happened.
He inferred some useful information from the snippets of conversation.
Firstly, his single mother was the Second Young Miss Jiang from the Jiang Family in Tianshui County. She had an engagement with a certain young master from the Zhong Family, another prominent family in the county.
However, not only did Second Miss Jiang run away from her arranged marriage, she also eloped with another man and gave birth to a child out of wedlock.
This incident caused the Tianshui County’s Jiang Family to lose face.
To appease the Zhong Family’s anger, they had to give up substantial benefits.
