Hunyuan Immortal Sect

Chapter 79 Life Experience
"Since you are a direct descendant of the Hussein family, why did you end up like this, and why did you go to Qin?"

The man said, "My uncle is old and senile. He dotes on his eldest grandson, Musa Hussein, and is determined to pass the throne of the Eastern Territory to him. My uncle has a close confidant and favorite minister named Nuha Enyis."

"Because he slandered my father, saying he was plotting treason and wanted to rebel and seize the position of head of the family. As a result, my uncle was furious and ordered my father to be arrested."

"My father was a man of integrity. He could not stand Noah's abusive power and arrogance. He and Noah were always at odds, and Moses was very afraid of my father."

"My father knew that my uncle was old and senile, and that he would be killed if he was caught. So he killed the people who came to capture him. However, Hanu was prepared, and my father and his loyal subordinates were defeated and killed."

"I escaped under the protection of my guards, but was later pursued. Several guards around me held off the pursuers, allowing me to escape the encirclement. However, due to my severe injuries, I passed out and fell from my flying magical instrument into the sea."

"If Nuha doesn't find my body, he'll definitely send people to continue searching. He might even issue a wanted poster throughout the entire Eastern Region. Once the wanted poster reaches Far East City, I'll be found sooner or later."

"Those crew members have seen what I look like. If they see the wanted poster, they will definitely report me."

"I had originally intended to flee to Qin State to avoid the limelight. Since you saved me, please help me on this final journey. I cannot thank you enough for this great favor, and I will repay you in the future."

The two looked at each other, never expecting that rescuing someone unintentionally would involve such a big problem. Zhong Wenyuan frowned, unable to make up his mind for a moment.

Logically speaking, killing this person now is the best solution, but on the one hand, Karissa will not agree, and on the other hand, she is worried that it will bring disaster.

Although the man had reached a point of desperation, a lean camel is still bigger than a horse. He knew that Jin Mingle Hussein had no confidants who had fled or hidden. If they knew that it was him who killed their young master, they would definitely take revenge.

Zhong Wenyuan gently pulled Carissa's arm, motioning her to go outside, and the two walked out of the room.

"Senior Brother Zhong, what should we do now?" Carissa also knew that this matter was of great importance and her expression was solemn.

Zhong Wenyuan's eyes flickered. After thinking for a long time, he finally made a decision: "We can't let him stay here. Let's go and take him to Qin immediately."

Carissa originally thought that since Zhong Wenyuan was afraid of getting into trouble, he would definitely not care about this matter anymore. He would either hand it over or just walk away and not ask about it anymore.

Unexpectedly, he acted out of character and acted like he was determined to take responsibility.

Carissa readily agreed, but she didn't know that the reason why Zhong Wenyuan decided to take this man to Qin was that he felt that the matter was of great importance and that if it was not handled properly it could bring about a catastrophe, so he had to keep the man under his control so that he could move forward and backward freely.

If the pursuit is urgent and the wanted posters are posted all over Far East City, then hand the man over. If everything is fine, then we will see how the situation develops.

No matter what, we can't just ignore it. We have to control the man first.

"Junior Sister Carissa, we can't be careless about this. We must secretly send him to Qin, preferably without anyone noticing. The more people who know, the greater the risk of exposure. Immediately take this flying magic weapon to take him to the sect. Be careful not to take him directly to the mountain gate. First, place him in a remote and deserted place, and then inform the Sect Master."

"Okay. Brother Zhong, what about you? Won't you come with me?"

"I need to take the Panlong incense we acquired. Isn't the main purpose of our coming here for the Panlong incense? How can we return empty-handed? You take him and leave on the flying magic tool first. I will take the Panlong incense back to the sect on the merchant ship later."

Carissa nodded. The Panlong incense they purchased this time weighed nearly a thousand pounds. The two of them had originally planned to take a merchant ship back, because ordinary flying magic tools could not carry such a heavy thing and could not travel fast.

After the two of them had made their decision, Carissa went into the house, moved the man out of the bed, and then took off the flying magic weapon and flew east with the man on it.

Zhong Wenyuan stood there and looked into the distance until Carissa disappeared from his sight. It was a long time before he returned to the house.

When the old man, the owner of the house, saw that the guest who had just stayed there had left, he came up to ask what had happened. Suddenly, there was a flash of sword, and the old man fell to the ground.

Zhong Wenyuan calmly dealt with the old man's body, then flew away on his flying magic weapon.

This is a high-grade flying magic weapon that looks like a dark blue kite, which was taken from the man’s storage bag.

Zhong Wenyuan returned to the dock and gathered everyone on the boat again. They set out to sea. Two days later, the boat reached a remote and uninhabited sea area. Suddenly, the entire ship sank at a high speed and soon completely sank to the bottom of the sea.

Not long after, Zhong Wenyuan rose from the bottom of the sea on a dark blue flying magic weapon and headed towards the pier.

…………

In Bianxia Town, Nanyuan Valley Market, Song Xian left Hunyuan Pavilion and came to the free market on North Street of the market. Seeing Feng Yan setting up her stall at the old location, he walked over quickly.

He had come to seek cooperation in the sale of Jade Fragrance Pills, as she had been the one who negotiated the deal during his last visit to the Luoyun Sect. The two female cultivators who had placed the order—Zeng Rou from the Beastmaster Sect and Xie Yiyi, the Zhengyang Sect's store manager at Qingfeng Market—had never met them before, and he felt it was unwise to rashly send someone with the pills.

It still requires someone you know to lead the way. Since this business was negotiated by Feng Yan, it would be more appropriate for her to bring people on the first visit. After a few visits, the customers and the sect's delivery people will become familiar with each other and there will be no need for them.

Otherwise, if you go to someone's house and offer to sell something to them without them having even seen you or spoken to you before, you might end up being turned against by them, telling them to get out or even refusing to let you in.

Song Xian was about to go up to her and say hello when he suddenly saw a thin old man in his fifties walk up to Feng Yan. He didn't know what he said, but Feng Yan's face changed drastically in an instant, her whole face flushed red. She quickly packed up her shop and turned away.

The old man was still trying to pull at her clothes, but Feng Yan pushed him away and walked away quickly.

Song Xian felt strange, and seeing the old man walking towards him, seemingly cursing, he went to meet him and bowed, saying, "I am Song Xian from the Hunyuan Sect. May I ask, fellow Taoist, your name?"

The old man, who was at the seventh level of Qi Refining, had a rather wretched appearance. When Song Xian blocked his way, he looked at him with a puzzled look and returned the greeting, "I am Peng Yu from the Yuyuan Sect. I wonder what may be the matter with you, Fellow Daoist Song?"

"Just now I saw you and that talisman-selling woman arguing with each other. They seemed to be old acquaintances. I wonder if they are?"

When the old man heard this, he looked at him and said, "Why, could it be that Fellow Daoist Song is interested in this little girl?"

Song Xian heard his frivolous words and reckless behavior. Feng Yan was about to leave, but he was still clinging to her. It was obvious that he was not a serious person, but it also showed that he and Feng Yan were old acquaintances.

He was just about to inquire about Feng Yan's background, so he said, "That's not the case. I just bought a few talismans from her stall, but they turned out to be counterfeit goods. The effects were completely different from what she said. I was just about to confront her! I just heard you say something to her, and she seemed to leave in anger. So I wanted to ask you where she lives so I can go and confront her."

Seeing that the two had just parted on bad terms and the man was cursing at each other, Song Xian thought that their relationship was not very good, so he did not tell the truth. He just found a reason and said that he also had a grudge against him to test him.

As expected, the old man shook his head after hearing this and said, "Fellow Daoist, you are so foolish! You have been deceived by her. Her half-baked talisman-making skills can't produce anything good. She is just a shoddy one. After all, I was the one who taught her this talisman-making technique!"

"Oh? So, you are her master. Why did you hand over such a disciple to come here to cheat and deceive people? I noticed you two seemed to have had an argument just now. Why does her disciple seem disrespectful to you?"

"Hey! What master and disciple? I just felt sorry for her and gave her a bowl of rice. This is a long story."

"What do you mean? Since she is not your disciple, why would you teach her the art of talisman making?"

The old man said, "She lives in the Nanling Stone Village area. People there live in extreme poverty, with many struggling to make ends meet. A few years ago, I passed by there. She was only about ten years old at the time, and she looked quite good. I bought her and brought her into my home. By chance, I discovered that she also possessed spiritual roots."

"That little girl is also very clever. Ever since she found out she has spiritual roots and can embark on the path of cultivation, she has been trying to please me in every way. I am a soft-hearted person, so after her constant persuasion, I taught her the cultivation method and bought her something that can help her transcend the mortal realm."

"I originally thought that if she could survive the transformation and become a monk, I would have an extra helper. I might even marry her as my legal wife in the future."

"After she transformed into a mortal, she was indeed quite obedient and served me respectfully. She also kept whispering in my ear, asking me to teach her how to make talismans."

"I taught her without giving it much thought. But after she learned it, she ran away. Luckily, I kept some tricks back when I taught her, so she only learned half of it."

"To be honest, I didn't expect to run into her here today. I just asked her why she left without saying goodbye and ran away. She turned her back on me and said she had nothing to do with me anymore."

"Fuck, this bitch! If I hadn't bought her, she'd still be in that damn place called Nanling, not knowing if she could even afford to eat, married to some sleazy poor guy."

"I treated her very well. I taught her the way to practice, bought her items that could help her transcend the mortal realm, and taught her the art of making talismans."

"I never thought she would be so heartless, not caring at all about the love we shared back then. After she took advantage of me completing my mortal transformation and learning the talisman-making technique, she ran away."

The old man grew angrier as he spoke. "This can't just end like this. Damn it! I put so much energy into helping this little bitch transcend. Now she wants to just walk away like that. It's not that easy."

"Since she's setting up a stall in this market, it means she must still be living in Nanling. Once I finish what I'm doing, I'll definitely get back at her."

After hearing this, Song Xian remained silent. He had never expected that Feng Yan had such a past that was too shameful to recall. No wonder she reacted so strongly when he mentioned who she learned the talisman-making skill from. Her face suddenly changed color and she became angry and embarrassed.

"If you want to ask her for an explanation, you can go to Nanling and ask. I will also go to settle accounts with her and let her know the price of deceiving me."

Song Xian didn't say anything and turned to leave. The old man thought that he was really going to Nanling, so he didn't care much and went about his own business.
