Chapter 82 The Cause of Death of Xiao Yan's Mother

Xiao family, back mountain.

Xiao Yan stood there with his head down, like a child who had made a mistake, with a hint of guilt on his face. He felt that Yang Chen seemed a little disappointed in him.

However, in reality, for Yang Chen, Xiao Yan's performance was unsatisfactory, barely passable, and did not surprise him, but at least he had put in hard work and his efforts were not in vain.

However, Yang Chen still hoped that Xiao Yan could be even better and more outstanding, because he could do it.

"Xiao Yan, do you feel that your uncle's expectations of you are too high?"

Yang Chen, with his back to Xiao Yan, looked up at the clouds in the sky quietly, and suddenly spoke, which startled Xiao Yan for a moment, and then he responded seriously.

"No, it's my own fault. I'm useless and I let my uncle down."

"Xiao Yan, you don't have to belittle yourself. You are very good, at least, better than your uncle imagined. However, this is not enough."

Turning around slowly, Yang Chen's deep eyes were filled with complicated emotions.

Yang Chen arrived in the Gama Empire half a month ago. He first went to the Gama Holy City. Before leaving the Gama Empire, he asked people to investigate some things and got the results not long ago.

After hesitating for a while, Yang Chen suddenly sighed and spoke.

"Has Xiao Zhan ever told you about your mother?"

"My mother? No. By the way, uncle, can you tell me about my mother?"

Xiao Yan's face was clearly filled with a hint of disappointment. What child wouldn't miss their mother? Especially someone like Xiao Yan, who had lost his mother since childhood. He usually didn't miss her because he had already gotten used to it.

"Your mother..."

The complex expression on Yang Chen's face became even more intense. Faintly, there seemed to be a trace of anger and hatred, which was forcibly suppressed.

After a while, Yang Chen sighed again, with a hint of reminiscence in his eyes, and spoke softly.

"Actually, the last time I saw my sister, I was only four years old. In my memory, your mother is a rare beauty in the world. It's a pity..."

Yang Chen couldn't help but shook his head as he spoke. If Xiao Yan wasn't here, Yang Chen really wanted to pin Xiao Zhan down and beat him up.

His sister's talent was no less than his, but back then, in order to protect the Xiao family, she fought against the enemy while pregnant. Although she saved Xiao Yan, her own strength was almost destroyed, so she died of illness.

Otherwise, with his sister's Dou Ling strength and fourth-grade alchemy skills, how could she die?

Looking at the anger gradually rising on Yang Chen's face, Xiao Yan hesitated for a moment, but still spoke in a low voice to persuade him.

"Uncle, can you please not be angry with my father? Actually, my father treats me..."

Looking at the raised hand in front of him and Yang Chen's somewhat cold gaze, Xiao Yan had no choice but to shut his mouth. Yang Chen didn't seem to want to talk about this either, and immediately changed the subject.

"Xiao Yan, do you want to know how your mother died?"

"My father said he died of illness. Is there any hidden secret behind this?" Xiao Yan's face changed involuntarily, and there seemed to be a bit of coldness in his eyes. In his memory, his mother had always been frail and sickly, but she was extremely good to him and doted on him very much. She was a woman with an extremely gentle personality.

"That's right, but you are still too weak now. Knowing too much will only hurt you."

Yang Chen sighed softly and spoke to Xiao Yan earnestly. Xiao Yan's eyes immediately showed a hint of unwillingness when he heard that.

Xiao Yan knew in his heart that his uncle was right. Even his uncle was very secretive about the murderer. With his current strength as a fighter, he would have no chance of revenge even if he knew about it. It would even implicate his uncle.

But the feeling of powerlessness in his heart deeply stimulated Xiao Yan. If he wanted to become stronger, not only his strength must be improved, but his fighting skills must also be improved.

However, the boy could not suppress the hatred in his heart. He wanted to know who his enemy was. Even if he didn't know it now, he wanted to know when he could get the answer.

"Uncle, when will I know who killed my mother?"

"Wait until you are able to venture into the Black Horn Region on your own. Then, your uncle will naturally tell you about the origins of my Yang family and our enemies."

A sharp look flashed in Yang Chen's eyes. He had lived cautiously for ten years, hiding from others for ten years. The time for those people to pay back their debts was almost here.

"Xiao Yan, practice hard. Your uncle is looking forward to the day when you grow up. When that happens, I'm sure those people will be extremely shocked."

Reaching out and gently patting Xiao Yan's shoulder, Yang Chen was about to leave after he finished speaking. Xiao Yan, who was in a daze, saw this and suddenly remembered something, and hurriedly called out to Yang Chen.

"Uncle, wait a moment."

"what happened?"

Yang Chen paused, then turned to look at Xiao Yan with some anticipation in his eyes. Xiao Yan reached out and scratched the back of his head, then spoke shyly.

"Well, uncle, I owe Miter Auction House several million gold coins."

"Millions of gold coins?"

Yang Chen was stunned when he heard this, and felt a little amused and helpless. He guessed it immediately. It must be that old fellow Yao Chen who wanted to save some soul power, so he was lazy. He could have refined some pills to pay off his debts, but because of his laziness, he was naturally blamed.

Xiao Yan thought that his uncle was too surprised after hearing this number, and was afraid that Yang Chen would investigate later, so he immediately explained in a low voice.

"Uncle, you may not know this, but I recently ran into a senior who was impressed by my talent and wanted to take me in as his disciple. However, the prerequisite was that I had to break through to the Fighter stage before I could become his disciple."

"However, that senior was very kind and said he could help me refine some pills to aid my cultivation. However, I needed to find the medicinal materials myself, which was also a test for me. Then, I gradually owed so much money."

The more Xiao Yan spoke, the lower his voice became. In his heart, he was cursing Yao Lao. The old man was disrespectful. He was obviously lazy, but he forced Yao Lao to lie to him. Moreover, his words sounded like farts.

Xiao Yan clearly remembered that at the beginning, Yao Lao repeatedly said that the information could not be leaked. However, after learning that the Mitel Auction House could give credit, he changed his mind directly. How shameless.

"Okay, it's all small matters. If you need anything in the future, just go to the Miter Auction House. For other matters, your uncle will help you. Just focus on your cultivation and don't let your uncle or your mother down."

Yang Chen smiled and patted Xiao Yan's shoulder. The young man's expression became much more serious after hearing what he said, especially when he heard about his mother, the light in his eyes became brighter.
