C111 He Would Go Back to Ci City
"The Chu Family doesn't exist anymore?"
"Sure enough... it doesn't exist anymore!"
Cicheng.
Zhu Ziqiao looked at the waiter in front of her in shock, but very quickly, a strange expression appeared on her face. She subconsciously looked at Lin Cheng.
Lin Cheng acted as if he didn't see Zhu Ziqiao's gaze. Instead, he turned his head and asked the waiter, "Why does the Chu Family no longer exist?"
The waiter snorted and said, "Dear guests, this question is too small to answer. Anyway, I only know that about a year ago, the Chu Family suddenly sold their properties. Since then, the two big families in Cicheng have moved away. Only the Wen Family is left."
"Do you know why the Chu Family moved away after selling their property all of a sudden?" Lin Cheng asked.
"How would I know?"
The waiter shook his head, "Dear guests, since you know about Chu Family and Wen Family, I'm sure you also know how powerful these two families are, and my identity. How could I dare to casually inquire about these two families? If they want to deal with me, I'm afraid it'll be even easier than crushing an ant. "
Lin Cheng nodded his head. With the identity of a waiter, it was indeed difficult for him to know the inside story, so he asked again," Then according to what you said, there is only the Wen Family left in Cicheng. Doesn't this mean that the Wen Family is the only one left? "
"This..."
When the waiter heard Lin Cheng ask about the Wen Family, his expression immediately tensed up. He subconsciously looked left and right, then smiled and said, "Dear guests, do you have any other dishes you want to order? If you don't have any, I will go and place an order for the kitchen."
Lin Cheng and Zhu Ziqiao looked at each other and saw the suspicion in each other's eyes. However, seeing that there were many customers around, the two of them did not ask any more questions. They waved their hands and let the waiter go.
"Little thief, it seems like the current situation in Cicheng is as we expected."
Zhu Ziqiao said in a low voice.
Lin Cheng slightly nodded his head, "Don't worry, we will find out more."
The first thing he needed to do in Cicheng was to find out more information, especially the current situation in Cicheng.
However, when Lin Cheng and Zhu Ziqiao came to a restaurant, they pretended to be foreign merchants and asked the waiter about the situation in Cicheng, but they got this shocking news.
The Chu Family no longer existed!
The Chu Family, which was originally one of the two major powers in Cicheng, had suddenly left Cicheng a year ago.
This news stunned Lin Cheng and Zhu Ziqiao, but they weren't too shocked.
Because, the two of them had already expected this result.
In fact, after they left the Chu Family mine with two full Storage Bags, the two of them were basically certain that the Chu Family would either rise up completely. They would even suppress the Wen Family to the point that they couldn't even lift their heads, and become the undisputed number one family in Cicheng.
Or, the Chu Family would no longer exist.
Although the Black Iron Chunk trembled slightly and absorbed more than half of the Spirit Stone Vein, and the remaining portion was madly mined by Lin Cheng for three to four days and nights, there was still a lot of Spirit Stone left.
Even if there were no other Spirit Stone left in the mountain, Lin Cheng wasn't sure if there were any. Even if there weren't any, just the remaining Spirit Stone was enough to make a family rise rapidly.
Of course, after learning that the news of the Spirit Stone Vein had been leaked, the Chu Family would never wait for the experts of the family to slowly advance. Once the news spread, the Chu Family would face a catastrophe.
Therefore, before the news spread, the Chu Family only had two choices...
First, they had to find a strong backer, such as a sect in Cultivation Realm, a sect with a huge power like the Unification Sect and the Myriad Sword Sect. It would be too easy to protect the Chu Family.
The price that the Chu Family had to pay was naturally the Spirit Stone Vein.
However, even if the Chu Family could obtain the protection of the sect, without the Spirit Stone Vein, it wouldn't be easy for them to continue developing and growing in the future.
According to Lin Cheng's knowledge, the resources in Cultivation Realm were also extremely uneven. If one wanted to become a powerful expert, one must have sufficient resources. However, since the Chu Family had already handed over the Spirit Stone, it would be impossible for them to get it back.
Without sufficient resources, how could the Chu Family rise up?
Therefore, Lin Cheng guessed that as long as the Chu Family's Chu Qiuwu's brain wasn't damaged, he wouldn't choose the first path.
Then, there was only the second option left.
Before the news spread, he would try his best to take the Spirit Stone away. He would stay far away from this place of right and wrong. In fact, he might even be able to hide his identity. With the help of the Spirit Stone and the Chu Family selling off all their property, this was enough for the experts of the Chu Family to cultivate in peace.
As long as there were no strange things like Black Iron Chunk that specialized in absorbing spiritual energy in the Chu Family, the Chu Family would not need to worry about cultivation resources for the next few years or even decades.
When Lin Cheng heard that the Chu Family no longer existed, he was slightly stunned. He felt relieved and even stunned. He was only surprised that the patriarch of the Chu Family would make such a decisive decision. It was a huge family business. He had given up just like that.
This made Lin Cheng surprised, and he couldn't help but admire him in his heart.
He even thought that if he was Chu Qiuwu, would he be able to make up his mind without any hesitation?
However, the Chu Family no longer existed. Currently, the Wen Family was the only major power in the Cicheng. This wasn't good news for Lin Cheng and Zhu Ziqiao.
"If the Wen Family... is really my enemy, I'm afraid that everyone in the city is our enemy!" Zhu Ziqiao couldn't help but speak in a low voice.
"It's not that serious!"
Lin Cheng shook his head and smiled, "Wen Family isn't as influential as you think. At the same time, those Cultivating Warriors that don't belong to Wen Family won't fight us for the sake of Wen Family!"
If they lost in the battle with Wen Family, there would definitely be a lot of people who would step on them in order to please Wen Family.
However, if they defeated the Wen Family, then other than the loyal followers of the Wen Family, there wouldn't be many people who would be willing to fight with them for the sake of the Wen Family.
This was human nature!
Lin Cheng had already seen through these things after reincarnating.
Zhu Ziqiao pursed her lips and wanted to say something but stopped herself.
Lin Cheng saw her hesitation and could not help saying: "Girl, don't forget what I told you before. Even if you are soft-hearted and can't bear to see it, you must wait until the truth is out before you can be soft-hearted. Otherwise, you will never know the truth. Not to mention avenging your parents! "
"I know."
Zhu Ziqiao bit her lips," First think that Wen Zhongming is the murderer who killed my biological parents, then look for evidence. If we can find evidence, then it means that our speculation is correct. Wen Zhongming he... is the murderer!"
Lin Cheng nodded and said, "That's right! If there is evidence, then everything will be clear. But if there is no evidence, or if you find out in the end that your parents were not killed by him, then it means that he is not your enemy! "
Rather than making random guesses, it would be better to find evidence directly.
The reason why Lin Cheng brought Zhu Ziqiao into the Chu Family's mine, madly mining Spirit Stone, and then crazily cultivating to increase their strength was for today...
He could do whatever he wanted, and even search for evidence without any scruples. They would not have to worry that Wen Zhongming was really the murderer who killed Zhu Ziqiao's biological parents. When they found out that they were looking for evidence, they would send people to capture or even kill them!
The powerful Ninth Level of Chakra Stage Cultivation Level was enough to ensure that they wouldn't be disturbed while searching for evidence and investigating the truth of what happened in the past. At the same time, they wouldn't have to worry about being captured or killed.
If it was to be said that they were worried, it should be their enemies who were worried!
"Little girl, let's go!"
Since they had already received the news they wanted, the two of them did not stay any longer.
Their purpose of coming to Cicheng was very simple - - to find out the truth of what happened back then!2
After coming out of the restaurant, the two of them left and disappeared into the endless crowd.
An hour later.
Lin Cheng and Zhu Ziqiao stood in front of the gate of a dilapidated house, quietly looking at the gate that had faded after the wind and sun, as well as the wall that was covered with weeds.
"This is my old home."
Zhu Ziqiao suddenly said with a hint of sadness in her voice.
Lin Cheng felt that her small hand was a little cold in his hand. He could not help but hold her hand tightly. "Girl, have you asked about it..."
"I have been here more than once."
Before Lin Cheng could finish, Zhu Ziqiao continued, "But most of the time, I only came here for one or two hours when I felt lonely. At that time, I always thought that what my adoptive father told me was true. He and my biological father were sworn brothers because he could not bear to see me suffer and have no one to depend on. So, he adopted me until I met an old neighbor..."
That time, Zhu Ziqiao also came to this house. Unexpectedly, she met a person who was familiar with her biological parents, which was also from that person's mouth. Only then did she know that her parents and adoptive father were not sworn brothers, but enemies with enmity.
"Initially, I didn't quite believe it, but what they did afterwards was really too..." Zhu Ziqiao lightly shook her head and did not continue to speak.
Lin Cheng held her hand and understood what she meant.
The things that the people of Wen Family did made Zhu Ziqiao's heart shiver. At the same time, it also made her realize that the Wen Family probably never treated her as a family member.
Especially after hearing the conversation between her so-called second brother and the old servant, it made Zhu Ziqiao understand that the information that the familiar person told her back then was very likely true.
Hence, Zhu Ziqiao thought of all sorts of ways to escape the Wen Family and the Cicheng.
Until today, she had returned.
"Zhu, Miss Xhu?!"
Just as Zhu Ziqiao was staring blankly at the mottled door, a low exclamation came from not far away.
