The pearl-like path was like a Xing Chen suspended in the universe. Chen Jiu followed the path and finally found a bright place.
There was a courtyard and a house. It was very simple and crude. As he got closer, he could vaguely see an old man lying on a reclining chair, swaying back and forth.
An expert. Although he was still far away, Chen Jiu could not help but respect him. He did not even dare to breathe loudly as he walked towards the old man step by step. How could a person who appeared in such a wonderful place be extraordinary?
"Greetings, Senior!" Chen Jiu bowed deeply when he was about ten feet away from the old man.
"Little guy, I've been waiting for you for a long time. Come and sit beside me!" The old man was still swaying back and forth as he spoke without raising his head.
"You've been waiting for me for a long time?" Chen Jiu was surprised, but it was useless to say anything now. He could only obediently walk to the old man's side and sit down cross-legged.
"Hmm, not bad, not bad at all!" The old man looked sideways at Chen Jiu and gave him a few words of praise.
"Senior, who are you? Where am I?" Chen Jiu asked nervously. He had a bad feeling about this unknown situation.
"Little guy, don't be so afraid of me. I'm actually the necklace on your neck. To be precise, it should be called the Black Dragon Necklace!" The old man suddenly said solemnly.
"You are? The Black Dragon Necklace! " Chen Jiu's eyes widened. This answer surprised him. Some memories came back. The Black Dragon Necklace was actually something he picked up. At that time, he thought it was not bad, so he had been wearing it. He did not expect it to be so mysterious.
"That's right. If you don't believe me, please take a look!" The old man then waved his hand. The pitch-black world suddenly lit up. The infinite distance was rapidly shortened, and Chen Jiu saw an extremely shocking scene.
"Roar …" A huge black dragon was roaring. Its head and tail were nailed to a magical place. Chen Jiu and the others were at the center of this place.
"Kid, do you believe me now?" Seeing that Chen Jiu was stunned, the old man waved his hand and calmed the world down.
"This …" Chen Jiu was stunned. He couldn't suppress the ecstasy in his heart. The last time he transmigrated, he had the Nine Dragon Ring. This time, he was still depressed. Suddenly, the Black Dragon Necklace appeared. It was obvious that this was a great opportunity for him! Haha, I, Chen Jiu's luck is truly heaven-defying.
"Hey, what are you giggling about?" The old man was somewhat puzzled.
"Senior, were you sent by the heavens to help me? We are destined to meet each other. Don't worry, from now on, I will listen to your teachings! "Chen Jiu said sincerely.
"Eh? You're quite tactful. You've saved me a lot of trouble!" The old man was a little surprised.
"Senior, why did you only appear now?" There was one thing that Chen Jiu didn't understand. He had worn this necklace for a long time. Why didn't Chen Jiu activate its function in the past?
"Kid, what I want is a man with an indomitable spirit. I won't take a liking to someone as cowardly and weak as you were before!" The old man reprimanded. Obviously, he was very dissatisfied with Chen Jiu's previous character.
"Cough …" There were some things that couldn't be explained. Chen Jiu could only say perfunctorily, "I was young in the past. Now that I'm married and have a family, I naturally have to shoulder the responsibilities of a man!"
"Good, that's the fighting spirit. It's important to strive for self-improvement. Only by striving for self-improvement can you never stop!" The old man approved.
"Thank you for your praise, senior. However, I seem to be a useless person now. I can't practice martial arts. Please enlighten me!" Chen Jiu immediately asked.
"Chen Jiu, the reason why you are useless now is because your mother was poisoned when she was pregnant. I happen to know how to cure this poison!" The old man said seriously.
"What? Who dares to poison my mother, they deserve to die! "Chen Jiu immediately became furious, he was very angry.
"If you want to know, you have to be strong first. This is a Nine Transformation Golden Pill. Take it first and change the nature of this useless person!" The old man didn't disappoint Chen Jiu and gave him a pill.
"Okay!" Chen Jiu took the pill and glanced at it casually. It was shining with nine-colored brilliance. It was golden all over. He opened his mouth and swallowed it.
"Ah …" Then, a burning sensation made him feel as if his whole body was burning. He directly lost consciousness.
In the new room of the Chen family, a pair of soft and gentle hands were gently wiping Chen Jiu's forehead with a towel. She was Song Ruoying, who was full of classical and elegant temperament. She was the wife who was forced to marry by Chen Jiu.
"Chen Jiu, you bastard. You ran out in the middle of the night and froze yourself. Why did you make me suffer with you?" Of course, Song Ruoying didn't want to serve Chen Jiu. However, she was his wife in name and this matter happened because of her. How could she ignore his illness?
"Chen Jiu, I've served you for three days. Why haven't you woken up yet? If it weren't for the return of your conscience that day, I wouldn't have cared about you!" Song Ruoying scolded and suddenly widened her eyes.
"Sizzle …" A hot mist suddenly rose from the warm towel. Song Ruoying couldn't help but feel that it was scalding.
"Oh, he's not going to die, is he? Why is it so hot? What should I do? It's fine if he dies, but won't my family be implicated?" Song Ruoying suddenly panicked. It was because she cared about her family that she had wronged herself by marrying Chen Jiu.
Seeing that Chen Jiu was about to die from the fever, Song Ruoying couldn't sit still anymore and ran out. "Father, mother, Chen Jiu is dying!"
"What? Young Master is dying? " The first one to hear the news was Chen Erdan. He had been guarding outside the door for almost the entire time. In an instant, his eyes were filled with tears.
"Young Master is dying …" Song Ruoying's shout was heard by everyone in the Chen family. When Chen Xia and his wife rushed over, the news had spread to all the higher-ups of the Chen family as if it had grown wings.
"Grandson … Nephew … Cousin … Cousin …" Because of Chen Jiu, the situation in the Chen family had changed. In an instant, a group of people, old and young, flocked over, each with their own ulterior motives.
Although Chen Jiu was a good-for-nothing, his father was the current patriarch. Naturally, it was impossible for him to not be noticed. When they heard that he was dying, many close relatives naturally rushed over.
More than a hundred people swarmed over. There were both young and old, and some of them were crying bitterly. It was as if Chen Jiu had died.
