School Beauty's Personal Crazy Young Master-Chapter 903 - 982 The Era of Destruction, Heavenly People Clan
Chapter 903: Chapter 982 The Era of Destruction, Heavenly People Clan
Chen Nan was speechless for a moment. Every time he wanted to ask something, the old man always knew in advance.
"You know everything. Are you the worm in my stomach?"
The old man directly slapped him, but this time Chen Nan managed to dodge it by chance, glaring as he said, "I’m not your worm, damn it. If you dare disrespect me, I’ll clean up the house and get rid of you."
Chen Nan knew in his heart.
Although he was lucky to dodge just now, if the old man really wanted to make a move, he would definitely have been beaten.
"Don’t get mad. If you really wiped me out, who’s going to see you off when you finally kick the bucket?"
The old man said irritably, "My cultivation is unparalleled, I won’t die."
"Alright, you’re the everlasting one." Chen Nan patted his forehead, "What you say makes so much sense, I can’t even argue."
"You bastard, still dare to curse at me!"
Seeing the old man about to erupt, Chen Nan quickly changed the subject and said, "That woman in red, who is she after all? And what’s your relationship with her? She said you’re from the same era, just how long have you both lived? Do you have a thing for her...?"
"Get to the point, damn it!"
The old man interrupted him, not in the mood.
Chen Nan said, "She built a giant altar near the Immortal Spirit Valley, it’s said to be for reviving someone. Who exactly is she trying to revive?"
"She’s just messing around, nothing serious." Xuan Tianji fell silent for a while before continuing, "This matter doesn’t concern you for the time being, but in the future, it will involve you and Su Qingqing. By then, you need to protect her well."
Chen Nan listened quietly and asked, "And then?"
"Then... there’s no ’then’." The old man looked at him and said, "I came here to tell you later, don’t get too close to that red-dressed woman, and don’t believe everything she says. She might screw you over at any moment."
Chen Nan scratched his head, "Old man, don’t tell me you think I want to get with her? Is that why you’re jealous and traveled all this way to stop me?"
"Stop talking nonsense, I could never be jealous of her!" Xuan Tianji yelled, disdainfully, "Besides, do you really have the guts to hit on her?"
Even though the woman was exceptionally beautiful, Chen Nan really didn’t have the nerve to pursue her.
"So what’s your relationship with her?" Chen Nan asked.
He was truly curious why the red-dressed woman would get agitated and call the old man a damned old thing when she mentioned him.
Xuan Tianji glared, speaking irritably, "Stop asking nonsense, just remember what I said earlier. That woman is a man-eater who won’t even spit out the bones of the people she screws over."
Chen Nan took out an ancient painting from his storage ring.
It was the painting he found in the underwater cave mansion, the one hiding the All Character Secret Technique, and the woman in the painting looked exactly like Ye Yiyi.
He had long wanted to ask Xuan Tianji about this painting.
But the old man was like a dragon, appearing and disappearing at will, so it wasn’t easy to see him. Even though he had met him twice before, he had forgotten to ask about it.
"I discovered this painting in the red-dressed woman’s mansion." Chen Nan handed the painting to Xuan Tianji, "Since you two are from the same era, you should recognize this woman, right? What’s her relationship with Yiyi?"
The old man glanced at the painting for a few seconds and then tossed it back to Chen Nan, "I don’t know her."
"You’re lying!"
Chen Nan pointed at the person in the painting, "Su Qingqing once dreamt of this woman fighting alongside the Immortal Spirit Saintess. You can’t not know her, who is she really?"
The old man was silent for a moment before pointing to Chen Nan’s chest, "She’s in your heart, find the answer yourself."
"What do you mean?"
"Think about it yourself."
After finishing, Xuan Tianji was about to leave, and Chen Nan quickly said, "Alright, I won’t ask you that, but tell me, what exactly happened in your era? Who are those winged people?"
Chen Nan remembered that Su Qingqing had said she dreamt of the Immortal Spirit Saintess fiercely battling with three winged beings.
Xuan Tianji remained silent for a while and just said three words, "Heavenly People Clan."
Heavenly People Clan?
Chen Nan had never heard of such a clan and asked, "Does such a race exist on Earth?"
Xuan Tianji didn’t answer him directly; he just shook his head, sighed deeply, gazed at the sky at a 45-degree angle with an air of mystery, "It was an era of destruction, countless astonishing geniuses fell, talents withered, the corpses of the strong piled high, rivers of blood flowed—it was humanity’s nightmare."
Chen Nan was frustrated, "Why did humans and the Heavenly People Clan go to war? Who won in the end? Can’t you be more specific?"
The old man pointed to the sky, "Look at the moon."
Chen Nan looked up, puzzled, "What’s wrong with the moon?"
Xuan Tianji sighed, "The moon will tell you that, in fact, you’re an idiot."
"Damn you..."
Chen Nan couldn’t help but curse, but when he looked down, he found that Xuan Tianji had already disappeared.
"What the hell, this damned old man!"
Helpless, Chen Nan shook his head, put away the ancient painting, and headed home. He really did not understand what was so secretive about all this and why the old man wouldn’t tell him.
Back at home, as soon as Chen Nan entered the living room—
"Whoosh..."
A soft, fluffy pillow came flying at him from the sofa.
Chen Nan quickly caught it, seeing Oriental Yun Fei glaring at him from the sofa, angrily saying, "Chen Xiaonan, you bastard!"
"What have I done to offend you?"
Chen Nan tossed the pillow back, feeling quite helpless—Oriental Yun Fei seemed more and more unreasonable, at least before she had a reason when picking a fight; now, it was utterly irrational and baseless.
At the moment, Su Qingqing and the others were all revising, with only Su Yixuan and Oriental Yun Fei on the sofa.
"You guys settle your score slowly, I’m heading back to my room." Su Yixuan helplessly patted her forehead; she really didn’t know how to mediate between these squabbling kids.
Chen Nan hurriedly said, "Don’t go—if you leave, what am I going to do?"
Su Yixuan was taken aback, thinking that sounded like something couples say to keep each other.
Chen Nan pointed at Oriental Yun Fei, explaining, "What I mean is, as the big sister of the house, are you willing to watch her bully me for no reason?"
Su Yixuan shrugged and walked inside.
Oriental Yun Fei put one hand on her hip, pointing at Chen Nan angrily, "Chen Xiaonan, you heartless bastard! Why didn’t you call me when you came back!"
Chen Nan paused, as if understanding something.
He rubbed his hands together, gave a leering smile, and walked toward her, "Is that what you were angry about?"
