Chapter 28: Secular Love

Chapter 28: Secular Love (Please recommend and collect)
Mother Chen nodded when she heard this, but she said with a look of regret: "Your brother is already sixteen or seventeen years old, it's time for him to get married. The second son of the Yang family is about the same age as you, and he already has children! Mu'er, can you also help me talk to this stupid guy? What's wrong with getting married?"

"Ah, a man's ambition is to travel far and wide. Getting married so early takes away some of the fun." It was Chen's father who finished a glass of wine who spoke up. He saw his wife's face as soon as he said it... and then he said, "Only after experiencing life can you realize that getting married early is the best option..."

Chen Mu pursed his lips and smiled when he saw this. The familiar feeling remained unchanged.

"Father and Mother, this matter ultimately depends on my brother's feelings. If he is of the same mind, nothing can stop him."

Chen Bai nodded aside: "That's right, I haven't even seen the daughter of the Zheng family, how can you introduce me to a matchmaker out of thin air? Don't worry, father and mother, I will go to meet her secretly one day, and we'll talk after we get to know each other..."

Chen's mother had no choice but to give up. The family chatted and laughed while they ate, picking out interesting stories to tell each other...

In the afternoon, Chen's father and mother were busy cleaning his room.

Chen Bai led him to the backyard.

"Brother, let me show you how powerful I am." After saying that, Chen Bai took off his boxer jacket and went into battle shirtless. His angular muscles reflected a unique glow in the sunlight.

He straightened his lower body, exerted all his strength, raised his right hand and punched the wooden stake in front of him.

"Bang..." With a dull sound, the wooden stake snapped and a crack appeared.

Chen Bai let out a long breath and slowly finished his training. After a moment, he turned around and said proudly, "How's it going? Awesome, right?"

Chen Mu couldn't help laughing when he heard words similar to those said by Niu Dali a few days ago. He really felt a sense of unreality.

"Awesome! I'm no match for you if we rely solely on our physical strength," he cooperated.

Chen Bai raised his head and said, "That's right. Ever since you left, my mother hasn't paid much attention to my studies. Instead, she's made me exercise every day. I feel like I'm going to become a martial arts master."

Chen Mu nodded and smiled, "That's because Mother can't bear to see you leave her side." Then he changed the subject, "Since you mentioned exercising, I actually prepared some pills for you."

He took out several bottles of pills he had prepared and told Chen Bai about them one by one.

They are all low-grade pills that only contain a little spiritual power, so even a mortal body can withstand them.

For example, the body-strengthening pills can eliminate hidden injuries and blood stasis in the body, strengthen the body, and prolong life, which can be regarded as a disguised form of longevity.

Another example is the detoxification pill, which can detoxify most common poisons...

These elixirs, which are rarely seen in the mortal world, only cost him a few spirit stones.

After dinner, Chen Mu found an opportunity to take off the amber he had been wearing, handed it to his mother, and asked, "Mom, do you remember where you got this amber from?"

Mother Chen was stunned for a moment and said, "This was given to me by your father..." Then she turned her head and looked at Father Chen beside her.

Father Chen took the amber, looked at Chen Mu's serious expression, and recalled it carefully.

"I... I vaguely remember... I picked this up by Wenyuan Lake..."

Chen Mu's eyes flashed: "Ask Yuan Lake?"

"That's right, when your mother and I first met, we had feelings for each other, so we made an appointment to go to Wenyuan Lake, which was very efficacious at the time, to inquire about our marriage destiny. After asking, I saw this beautiful amber next to it. I thought it was a response from God, so I brought it back and made it into jewelry for your mother." As Father Chen recalled, his memory became clearer and he kept talking.

Chen's mother also remembered and added with a smile, "That Wenyuan Lake was incredibly effective back then. No matter what you asked, as long as you asked sincerely, all sorts of things would appear next to you, giving you clues... But then I heard... for some reason, Wenyuan Lake gradually stopped giving clues... so no one went there anymore."

Chen Mu pondered for a moment and asked, "Where is Yuan Lake?"

"It's very far away from us, in Wenjian County... near our ancestral home..." Father Chen said in a low voice, as if he remembered some bad things from the past.

Chen Mu remained silent. Ever since he could remember, he had been traveling with his father and mother... traveling. It wasn't until he was four or five that they settled in Qingxi Town...

"So it's in Wenjian County..."

Wenjian County, to which the great immortal cultivation sect Wenjian Pavilion belongs, is separated from Shuiyun County by two counties, making it extremely far away.

His father never told him why his family, as mortals, had to travel across several counties to come here... Chen Mu was about to ask when he saw his father suddenly raise his hand, indicating that he didn't need to ask anymore.

He had no choice but to give up. Besides, now was not the right time. If he couldn't go to Wenjian County, he would leave it for later...

Seeing how serious he was, Mother Chen asked worriedly, "What's wrong, Mu'er? Is this amber an evil object? Did it hurt you?"

Chen Mu shook his head, smiled, took the amber and put it on: "No, mother, I was just asking casually."

Chen's mother naturally didn't believe it, but she didn't ask any further questions.

Chen Bai was stunned as he listened. It turned out that there were so many things going on at home that he didn't even know about.

……

Three days passed in a flash.

Chen Mu waved goodbye to his family and boarded the Liuyun crane to fly towards Baizhi Town.

"It is said that in order to cultivate immortality and seek the Tao, one must cut off worldly ties. Only in this way can one progress without bottlenecks. There is real hope in seeking the Tao, but I have thoughts that I cannot cut off. Since I cannot cut them off, I will leave them behind..." Chen Mu closed his eyes in silence.

Half a day later, Chen Mu arrived at Baizhi Town, the most prosperous town in Qinghe Prefecture.

After waiting for a while, Niu Dali finally arrived, having changed out of his white shirt and put on a coarse linen shirt.

"Alas, my mother was reluctant to let me go, so she held me and cried for a while..."

Chen Mu looked at his smiling face, but the corners of his eyes were a little moist...

He consoled her, "Just find a chance to come back. It'll only take a few days."

Niu Dali nodded heavily.

After asking people in the town along the way, they soon arrived at a courtyard with a faint aroma of medicinal herbs.

As soon as he approached, Niu Dali shouted at the top of his voice: "Xiao Kui! Xiao Shuang! Your two good brothers are here to see you!"

After a while, there was a sound of running through the wall, and then the door creaked and suddenly opened.

A brown figure came up laughing and said, "Big Brother, Second Brother!"

Chen Mu and the other man stopped him from jumping up with a smile, and looked at Xiao Shuang who was running towards him in small steps.

"Big Brother, Second Brother..."

The two smiled and nodded. Niu Dali turned to look at Xiao Kui: "Why are you dressed like a monkey?"

As soon as these words came out, the servants who were following beside him were frightened. Their young master was thin and looked like a monkey... but they couldn't say it.

Du Xiaokui pretended to be angry and hammered at him with bared teeth, but he reached out to take it.

"Come in..." Xiaoshuang chuckled.

The group came to the inner room, where a fat middle-aged man stood, leaning slightly with a smile on his face.

"I was wondering why I felt so relaxed and at peace today. Turns out it was to welcome two young men of banished immortal demeanor..."

Xiao Kui took the lead and said helplessly: "Dad... these are my two brothers, why are you so..."

The middle-aged man's face changed when he heard this. He clapped his hands twice, then laughed and said, "My two nephews, you are really handsome and talented, the best among them..."
