C848 Master
When Zheng Kai dragged his tired and hurt body back to the Chen Mansion, the sky had already turned half dark.
Along with the unceasing rumbling of thunder along the horizon and the electric dragons and snakes, a torrential downpour finally came down. Zheng Kai, who just arrived at Chen Mansion's entrance was drenched from head to toe in rain.
"Haha …" "Look …"
"Who is it? "Oh, it's that trash …"
"Shh, be quiet, don't let anyone hear you …" Why don't we go and pick him up with an umbrella? "
"Hold me down, I love you. Don't involve me in the rain. I changed my clothes today …"
"..."
As Zheng Kai walked step by step towards the manor's gate, he could faintly hear the whispers of the servants on the porch. He knew that there were no less than ten pairs of eyes staring at him, this nominal young master of the Chen Family, with some looking down on him with contempt, some looking down on him with sarcasm, and some looking down on him with schadenfreude. However, no one would sympathize with him.
After all, in this world where only the strong were respected, Zheng Kai, who was six years old and did not show any talent for cultivation, was not worthy of sympathy.
Even though he was the eldest son of the eldest son of the Chen Mansion …
"Crack!"
Another gigantic bolt of lightning tore through the sky, and struck a rock in the mountain far away from the Chen Mansion. The pure purple lightning pillar collided violently with an unremarkable rock at the peak of the mountain, and their bodies were smashed into pieces, turning into pieces of stone that emitted terrifying high-temperature stone fragments that splattered all over the place.
"Landwyrm has turned over!" "The land dragon has turned over!"
Not knowing where that lightning came from, its might did not diminish even after it struck the rock on the mountain peak, and even the Chen Mansion at the foot of the mountain began to shake violently. The servants who were originally hiding in the hallway to avoid the rain were all scared out of their wits, they no longer cared if they were new clothes today.
"Haha, idiot …"
Zheng Kai sneered. He raised his head to look at the purple lightning bolt and recorded it down in his heart. He then pushed the crowd to the entrance of the hall and sat down in front of the stove.
He knew that he was different from before. He used the weak body of Zheng Kai Nian when he was young. He had to dry as soon as possible after being drenched by the cold rain or else he would easily feel the cold.
The earthquake just now had obviously helped Zheng Kai a lot. The servants, who were ignorant and afraid of death, did not even have the courage to go back to their rooms to retrieve their umbrellas. They stood outside in the cold rain, shivering.
"Who is this?"
Just when Zheng Kai was sitting beside the stove and constantly adjusting his position to roast himself, and finally found some warm air that he hadn't had in a long time, he suddenly heard a weak and old voice behind him.
Zheng Kai knew that he didn't have anyone in the family that could be considered a friend. Even his own mother died when giving birth to him, so he didn't care about hurting his friends. He turned his head and looked towards the direction of the voice coldly.
"Oh, it's the eldest young master …"
What entered his eyes was an elderly man with a head full of white hair who was also dressed in a servant's robe. His pair of deep, turbid eyes were filled with calmness and indifference, neither showing any respect to Zheng Kai because of his status as the young master, nor underestimating him because of his awkward position within the Chen Mansion.
Overall, in the eyes of this old man, Zheng Kai was someone who could or could not exist. He was like a small stool on the table, with one less person and one less person.
"Yes."
Seeing that the other party was just an unremarkable servant, Zheng Kai nodded and didn't take it to heart. He only drifted to the barely discernible trace of being drenched by the rain on the old servant's black Chang suit and subconsciously leaned to the side, giving him a spot to grill the fire.
The old servant was stunned for a moment. Then, he neither refused nor thanked him. After he sat down, he closed his eyes to rest. It was as if he really treated Zheng Kai like an insignificant object, neither sad nor happy.
In this way, Zheng Kai became embarrassed. In this big room, there were only the old man and himself. If the old man took the initiative to ask him for a topic, he could just keep a nonchalant attitude, but when the old man closed his eyes and didn't speak, he felt depressed.
"This rain …" "How long more do you want to scare him for?"
At the same time, it was Zheng Kai's consciousness. Although he had just entered Zheng Kai's Spiritual Sense, and the ancient book that recorded Zheng Kai's life story was in his head, providing him with a reference, but he did not know much about the details and could only think of a way to get it out of the old man's mouth.
"Hehe, can you be considered to be pretending to be relaxed?"1
However, the old man's reply surprised Zheng Kai. Pretending to be relaxed? What was going on? This old man didn't seem to be old enough to spout nonsense.
"Ah …"
While feeling suspicious, Zheng Kai casually made an ambiguous sound. At the same time, he kept flipping the coat in his hand that was roasted to the ninth layer of dry leaves, pretending to look for places that weren't roasted. In fact, he took this opportunity to guess the meaning of this old man's words.
"Even so, it's useless …" "When the rain stops, come with me to the dark room and demonstrate the Qi Drawing Arts that I taught you yesterday. Let me see if you're lazy …"
His slightly closed eyes didn't even tremble at all, nor did he look at Zheng Kai. It was as if a lonely old man was talking to a kitten or dog that he had raised, and this situation usually meant that he was very familiar with the other party. At the same time, it also meant that the other party was completely dependent on him, or even that the other party's life and death was in his hands.
Boom!
Just as the old man finished his sentence, another thunderclap sounded in the sky. At the same time, the same huge sound echoed in Zheng Kai's mind.
"This seemingly unremarkable servant is actually a Psionic Illusion Master, the master of Zheng Kai!"
While he was shocked, Zheng Kai also felt enlightened. He finally found the answer to a question that he had kept in his heart for a long time.
It was no wonder that Spiritual Master Zheng Kai, who originally did not display any talent in cultivation, and had even been abandoned by the Chen Family, would resolutely make a comeback at the age of ten. He defeated his younger brother Chen Fei, who had been betting on him for five years, and obtained the only place in Clear Water Town where he could enter the academy to cultivate.
So it was because of this mysterious old man's secret help!
