The strangest thing was that the chopsticks flew back to him. Pei Zi Yun looked at the youth, "Although I didn't use the leaves to hurt you, I can still kill you with the chopsticks. If I had any evil intentions, wouldn't it be easy to kill you?"
The youth's expression did not change as he said, "Indeed, you have good skills. To kill me, you only need to sit down and move your hands."
At this point, he still had the demeanor to do so.
Pei Zi Yun looked at him and felt a chill in his heart, "Just now, I used my Dao arts to disturb everyone's state of mind. Only this youth was not affected. Although he was an Elementary Scholar, he was protected by the yellow Qi. He was a noble."
"But this can't be a gift from my father. The King of Wei is dead, and his country is no more."
"Not to mention a mere rebel king. Even if he was a king for three hundred years, once the country was destroyed, it would lose its power."
"Looks like my guess was right. This is a gift from killing the Grand Preceptor."
The youth looked at Pei Zi Yun and asked, "Since you're not here to kill me, what's your purpose?"
"The map of the Dragon Veins!" Pei Zi Yun said softly. The youth was startled, but he did not get angry. Instead, he started laughing.
"Haha!" Laughter reverberated in the room. Everyone in the room looked over, and the people in the room hurriedly called out, "Young Master!"
After laughing for a while, the youth stopped and ordered, "Bring the map of the Dragon Veins here."
Grandma Li tried to persuade him, "Young Chieftain, this is the inheritance of Old Master. How can you take it out just like that?"
The youth waved his hands, "Grandma Li, just bring it out. With such martial arts and Dao arts, how can we fight against them?"
"A wise man submits to circumstances. This map of the Dragon Veins is no longer of use to my family. Just bring it out."
Seeing the youth in front of him so straightforward, Pei Zi Yun paused. He never thought that he would be able to obtain the map so easily. His heart was filled with joy, but at the same time, he thought to himself, "There are many heroes under the heavens. This youth has the qualities of a wise ruler. It's a pity that his looks alone are useless."
Sometime later, Grandma Li brought a small sandalwood box to him. The youth opened the box with a key, and inside was a map of the Dragon Veins.
There were many words written on it. The youth handed it over, "Brother Pei, you can check it."
Pei Zi Yun took out the Dragon Veins Map and looked at it from top to bottom. At the end, he stopped abruptly.
At this point, the young man's face was pale, as though he would collapse at any moment. He gently placed the teacup down and said, "I don't know what Young Master wants, but my clan only has half of the Dragon Veins Map. If Young Master wants it, feel free to take it."
Hearing this, Pei Zi Yun looked at the youth in front of him, as if trying to read his expression.
"Haha!" Pei Zi Yun stared at him for some time before he laughed out and asked, "Your Highness is so straightforward. What do you want?"
"Don't call me Your Highness. When the Imperial Guard Army was defeated, there would be no more Your Highness." The young man was silent for a long time before he sighed in disappointment. It was as if something had touched his heart. He looked out the window and saw a vegetable field with some vegetables and fruits growing in the garden.
The young man stood up and walked a few steps. Without even turning his head back, he said, "Master Top Scorer, I'm sure you're trying to find the secrets of the heavens in the Dragon Veins."
"I have a wish. If Young Master can help me achieve it, I can tell you the location of the other half of the Dragon Veins Map."
Hearing the young man's words, Pei Zi Yun took out the Dragon Veins Map and took a deep breath, "Young Master Fang, what do you want? If it's to help you conquer the world, then forget it."
The young man paused for sometime before laughing out, "A defeated army is like a landslide. Since ancient times, when has a defeated country been able to rise again?"
"Besides, with my health, how can I talk about conquering the world?"
"All of you, leave." The young man turned around and instructed Grandma Li.
"Yes, Young Chieftain."
The young man saw that everyone had left before he walked closer to Pei Zi Yun and said, "I have a girl I like, but I have two problems. Firstly, her family doesn't want us to be together, and rejected me. However, I can't let go of her. You have to help me marry her."
"I can't let her go, and I can't let her down. I believe this shouldn't be a problem for Master Top Scorer right?"
"Secondly, my health isn't good, and I can't have sex. I don't have any other requests. As long as you can give birth to a son, no, even a daughter, and let her inherit the Fang family's bloodline, I will tell you the location of the other half of the Dragon Veins Map."
"Cough cough, Master Top Scorer, if you can do it, I will tell you. If you can't, I'm afraid my body won't last much longer. If I get a shock, I might die on the spot." As he spoke up to this point, the young man's face turned red, as tears welled up in his eyes.
So that's how it was. His body wasn't good, and he didn't have any ambitions. It's just that he was blessed, how did he end up like this?
Pei Zi Yun paused for sometime before saying, "Let me take your pulse."
The young man sat down and extended his hand in front of Pei Zi Yun. Pei Zi Yun felt his pulse and asked, "What's the girl's name?"
The young man's face was pale, "Her surname is Cao, and her name is Dan Yu. Her house isn't far from here, it's just opposite."
"The son of King Wei, even if he can't have sex, but in this village, who can't he do it? Why isn't she by his side?" Pei Zi Yun thought to himself, and was shocked.
"That's not right. His vital energy has been depleted, and he's already a dead man. How can he still be alive?" Pei Zi Yun thought to himself as he continued to feel his pulse. He couldn't help but have a strange expression on his face. It was as if there was some sort of life force that kept him alive. This was something Pei Zi Yun had never seen before.
After thinking for some time, he then said, "Your vital energy has been depleted. You should have died long ago, but you're still alive. It's as if there's some sort of life force keeping you alive. I've never seen this illness before, and it's really strange."
Pei Zi Yun then paused for some time before saying, "His vital energy has been depleted, and he should have died long ago. However, he's still alive. It's as if there's some sort of life force keeping him alive. I've never seen this illness before, and it's really strange."
When the young man heard this, he was filled with hope, "Master Top Scorer, I've invited over ten famous doctors, and they all said that I wouldn't live past twenty. However, I can't just die like this."
"My Fang family is my only son now. When the army was defeated, so many people fought at the frontlines to cover my retreat. Because of this, I wish to continue the lineage of my Fang family." The young man revealed a bitter smile, but his tone was extremely calm, "Just do what you need to do. If you fail, then my Fang family and I are doomed."
Pei Zi Yun did not speak as he turned around and walked out the door. Under the guidance of a servant, Pei Zi Yun found the Cao household. There were a few thatched huts, and a young lady was hard at work. The sound of coughing could be heard coming from within.
As soon as he got closer, Pei Zi Yun frowned. It was as if the entire hut was filled with sin. He could feel his hairs standing on end as he hurriedly took a few steps back. His Yin Master opened its eyes and looked around. The entire world seemed to have turned grey and black.
This was especially so for the thatched hut. He then looked at the young girl. She wasn't very pretty, but she was tall and had an oval face. She had a few freckles on her face. She was busy chopping firewood. Pei Zi Yun was silent for some time before letting out a long sigh.
'This kind of sin can only be committed by a few people. This person must be a descendant of Grand Preceptor Du.' He didn't expect the descendants to have so much sin.
However, the third generation of young ladies who were hard at work had much less sin, and yet the sin was still concentrated into a ball.
'This sin, if there is no external help, would cause the descendants to suffer from poverty and misfortune. I'm afraid it would take a few more generations before the sin would disappear.'
The young lady who was chopping wood saw a young man approaching her. She paused and asked, "Young Master, you look unfamiliar. What brings you to my house?"
Pei Zi Yun's eyes gleamed as he smiled and didn't speak immediately. He then said, "I am a High Scholar from the city, and am here to pay a visit to Elementary Scholar Fang. I have to know that he has a wish. He wishes to marry you, and told me that he can't leave you. What do you think?"
Hearing Pei Zi Yun's straightforward words, the young lady's face turned red as she lowered her head shyly. Her eyes dimmed as she said, "Young Master, this is impossible."
Pei Zi Yun asked curiously, "You don't like him? Or are you lacking in monetary gifts? "
The young lady's face turned pale, "No, that's not it. I like him. I've never liked anyone else as much as I like him. But I have my own difficulties."
As the young lady spoke, she looked at Pei Zi Yun. Her eyes were like that of a deer, causing Pei Zi Yun to freeze. She was struggling, conflicted, and in pain. It was as if he could see the original owner's eyes from the night before Ye Su 'er was kidnapped.
Pei Zi Yun fell silent. The young lady bit her lips as she looked at him. She then threw the axe on the ground and ran back into the house with tears in her eyes.
At this point, a coughing sound could be heard from within the house. Pei Zi Yun followed her in and saw a bearded man lying on a bed. A middle-aged woman was tearfully taking care of him. The moment he entered, he could smell a foul stench.
At this point, the man who was lying on the bed opened his eyes and saw a man walking in. He was enraged, "You're that bastard's messenger? Get the hell out of here! "
The man struggled and picked up a spittoon from the floor and was about to throw it at Pei Zi Yun. The middle-aged woman hurriedly tried to stop him. The young lady shouted, "Father, don't be angry. Anger will harm your body."
Seeing this, Pei Zi Yun sighed in his heart. Du Zi Nong was a scholar of the previous dynasty. He had risen to the position of Grand Preceptor. In order to regain his fortune, he went against the heavens and killed a hidden dragon.
In the end, the hidden dragon's Qi did not die. It split into dozens of different parts. The world's heroes rose up together, and the war became even more intense. One of them, the Wei Wang, killed the entire Du family and obtained half of the Dragon Veins.
'The Du family changed their surname to Cao and fled to a sanctuary. It's a pity that even so, they couldn't survive. Now, all that's left is this young lady.'
'The Wei Wang army was defeated, and the Fang family, who obtained half of the Dragon Veins, fled here as well. In the end, both families ended up living in the same village. The most dramatic thing is that the young lady fell in love with each other.'
'This is such a melodramatic drama.'
Thinking up to this point, Pei Zi Yun pressed his forehead and said coldly, "You know your family's situation very well. Your entire family is in danger of being wiped out. Do you really want to die without descendants?"
"I have a problem with the rule of law, and you still want to be so rude to me?"
The middle-aged man who was about to throw the spittoon at Pei Zi Yun heard these words. It was as if he had been struck by lightning. His entire body stiffened as he stared at Pei Zi Yun. With much difficulty, he asked, "Who are you?"
Pei Zi Yun laughed out before speaking in a loud voice, "Ying Prefecture's Top Scorer, Free Cloud Sect's Sect Leader, conferred the title of Dao Master Qi Ning!"
