I can bless thousands of magical powers.

After several days' journey, Zhang Yuan arrived at Yupu County.

Yupu County is located in the southwest of Daqian Qingzhou. Although the county seat is not large in size, it is located in a place with beautiful mountains and rivers. The local climate and environment are quite good, making it very livable.

As Zhang Yuan walked along the road, he saw farmlands crisscrossing on both sides of the official road, with villagers and farmers working in the fields. It was a far cry from the drought in Yongzhou.

Yan Bei's decision to place his family here was obviously a well-thought-out decision.

After getting off the horse in front of the city gate, Zhang Yuan led his mount into the county town.

When he left Shang Jingtian this time, he specially applied for a horse for transportation.

After all, the Gray-fanged Lynx's gigantic form is too powerful. It is fine for it to run in uninhabited areas in the wilderness, but if it runs to densely populated areas, it will easily cause panic and chaos.

Zhang Yuan traveled all the way to Yupu County just to fulfill his promise to Yanbei.

There was only one busy main street in the county town, and it didn't take him much time to easily find a shop with a sign that read "Su's Cloth Shop" hanging on the door.

"Sir, is there anything you need?"

As soon as Zhang Yuan walked in, a shop assistant came up to him with a smile.

Zhang Yuan asked, "Is your shopkeeper here?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the old man who was counting the accounts behind the counter came out immediately, bowed respectfully and said, "I am the shopkeeper of this store. May I ask what can I do for you?"

Although Zhang Yuan restrained all his aura and did not reveal any of the power of a strong man, the old shopkeeper had seen countless people in his life and had long since honed his eyesight.

His intuition told him that Zhang Yuan was not an ordinary person!

Therefore, the old shopkeeper's attitude was particularly polite and cautious.

"I have something to ask your boss."

Zhang Yuan nodded, then took out a jade pendant and handed it to the other party.

This was a token Yan Bei left for him before his death, with the word "Su" engraved on it.

When the old shopkeeper saw the jade pendant, his expression changed immediately.

He took it with both hands, examined it carefully, and then waved to the waiter, saying, "Close the door!"

After the cloth shop closed its door and hung up the "Closed Today" sign, the old shopkeeper first sent the two shop assistants away and then asked Zhang Yuan to wait for a while.

Not long after, the old shopkeeper led out a beautiful woman.

The woman held the jade pendant tightly in her hand. She obviously had some guesses about Zhang Yuan's purpose. Her pretty face was pale and her eyes were filled with tears.

After paying a respectful tribute to Zhang Yuan, the woman asked in a trembling voice, "Young man, do you have any news about my husband?"

Zhang Yuan did not answer directly, but glanced at the old shopkeeper next to him.

The beautiful woman pursed her lips and said, "Don't worry, young man. Manager Su is my old servant and has always been loyal to me."

Zhang Yuan nodded, then took off his bag and took out the box inside.

What is contained in here is Yan Bei’s ashes!

Zhang Yuan said, "Sister-in-law, please accept my condolences."

The widow of Yan Bei, Mrs. Su, was struck by lightning. Her eyes rolled back and she fainted on the spot.

Fortunately, Zhang Yuan was quick-witted and immediately exerted a gentle force to support her, preventing her from falling to the ground.

"lady!"

The old shopkeeper hurriedly helped Su sit on the chair, and he himself couldn't help but burst into tears.

Zhang Yuan sighed secretly, stretched out his right hand and lightly touched her forehead with his sword finger.

Su woke up with a moan.

Her face was ashen and tears were streaming down her face. She raised her sleeves to cover her face and cried bitterly.

Sadness reached its peak. "Sister-in-law."

Zhang Yuan said in a deep voice: "Brother Yan and I hit it off right away. Before he died, he asked me to take care of you and your son. I wonder if you are willing to bring your family with you and follow me to settle down in the sect?"

Although Zhang Yuan agreed to Yan Bei's request, it was impossible for him to stay in this small county town to protect the latter's family.

So bringing back Sedum is the best choice.

Of course, with Zhang Yuan’s current identity, he is definitely not qualified to bring people into Shang Jingtian.

Even if it's just living in Linxian Manor.

Therefore, he specifically asked Mo Huaian for help and obtained a quota for the disciples' families to move into the sect.

In fact, such places are extremely valuable and cannot be bought with money under normal circumstances.

But Mo Huaian generously gave away the quota and also handled the relevant procedures.

It saved Zhang Yuan countless troubles.

Although Mo Huaian had never met Yan Bei before, he was extremely impressed by what Zhang Yuan had said about the deeds of this chivalrous hero.

That's why I'm willing to help.

"Go, where?"

Su came back to his senses a little from his great grief and asked in a daze.

After all, she was just an ordinary woman. Faced with such shocking news, she was at a loss for a moment.

"Go up to Jingtian."

Zhang Yuan had no choice but to briefly recount Shang Jingtian's situation, and emphasized: "The sect is the safest place, and if Brother Yan's offspring has talent, they can also join the sect."

Su was still in a daze, and the old shopkeeper next to her persuaded her, "Madam, it's right to listen to this young man!"

Yan Bei settled his wife and children in Yupu County, and would come to visit and reunite with them every once in a while. Under the protection of this sixth-rank strongman, the Su family and others naturally lived happily and comfortably.

But now that the Optimus Prime has collapsed, there will be no problem in the short term if we continue to live here.

It’s hard to say over time.

What's more, entering Shang Jingtian is like reaching heaven in one step. Unless you've been kicked in the head by a donkey, how could you possibly refuse!

The old shopkeeper was afraid that his wife might lose her mind due to grief, so he gave a special reminder.

Su finally regained some of her sanity, wiped her tears and said, "Thank you, young man. No, thank you, benefactor. I will completely rely on you!"

"My last name is Zhang, and my given name is Zhang Yuan."

Zhang Yuan said: "Sister-in-law, just call me by my name. I don't deserve to be your benefactor."

Su nodded: "Brother Zhang."

"Without further ado."

Zhang Yuan added: "The sooner we leave, the better. If we can sell this store, we'll sell it. If we can't, we'll just throw it away."

Even if a shop in a small county town is located in a prosperous location, its value is limited.

Zhang Yuan is not short of money, so he doesn't want to waste time.

The old shopkeeper beside him said quickly: "Young man, leave this matter to me!"

Although Yupu County is not large in scale, it is quite prosperous.

Not only is this shop located on the main street of the county town, but it also has a residential house at the back. As long as the price is low, it is very easy to sell it and there are many people willing to take it over.

So Zhang Yuan stayed there temporarily and let the Su family make their own arrangements.

Three days later, the widow of Yanbei took her two children, an old servant and a maid, followed Zhang Yuan in a carriage, and embarked on the long journey to Shangjingtian. (End of this chapter)
