Chu Yuan was curious about where the old man had gone;

Wasn't he always keeping an eye on Chu Ying? Why didn't he show up this time?

"Brother, what brings you here?" Chu Ying asked happily.

"I was just passing by..."

"Brother-in-law! I am Du..." Du Kai was halfway through his sentence when he suddenly saw Chu Yuan's eyes and froze, the hair on his arms standing on end!

The gaze directed at him was cold and indifferent, as if he were looking at an ant that could be crushed with a flick of the wrist!

Despite the bustling crowd around him, Du Kai felt as if he were the only person left in the world, utterly silent and helpless...

Seeing his trembling pupils, Chu Yuan frowned and then withdrew some of his divine sense.

I forgot that the other person was just a little kid, and I accidentally used too much force...

Du Kai heard the noisy voices around him again, and cold sweat broke out all over his body in an instant. He moved his lips a couple of times, but dared not say another word.

At that moment, he had only one question in his mind;

What exactly does Chu Ying's brother do?

I knew beforehand that Chu Ying's brother was a senior in high school;

But I've never felt that way with my father before...

Chu Yuan couldn't really argue with a little kid, but a warning and a scare were still necessary;

"If I ever find you bothering my sister again... I'll kill you! Do you hear me?"

The feeling from before resurfaced, even more dangerous than before;

Du Kai seemed to see a ferocious, blood-red behemoth opening its fangs and gaping maw at him!

"Damn! What a load of bull!" one of Du Kai's henchmen cursed. "Brother Kai's dad is a powerful martial artist! Go ahead and try to touch us!"

Du Kai was terrified. "Don't drag me into your bragging!"

Besides, that's my dad!

Judging from your proud demeanor, you seem just like your father.

"Shut up!" He didn't know where the strength came from, but he slammed his crutch into the henchman's back before looking at Chu Yuan and stammering, "I...I understand..."

"Brother Kai!?" The younger brother looked incredulous and said, feeling wronged, "Even if you truly love your sister-in-law, but..."

"Shut up! Shut up!" Du Kai was terrified, his cane swinging so hard it left afterimages...

Chu Yuan sensed something and turned to look in one direction;

A martial artist approached, but his strength wasn't very high.

He quickly spotted a middle-aged man with an unfriendly expression in the crowd;

Upon seeing the face that bore a resemblance to Du Kai, Chu Yuan immediately guessed his identity.

then......

He took out the Zhenwu Token and fiddled with it in his hand.

"Yingying, let's go."

"Oh, oh~"

......

Dusen watched the two departing figures with lingering fear.

Today he finally had some free time, so he came to pick up his son and see if he could find the bastard who broke his son's leg before.

As soon as they arrived, they saw a teenager threatening their son, saying he would kill him.

Seeing his son's pathetic state, Dusen was furious.

Just as he was about to step forward and teach that arrogant brat a lesson... he saw him pull out the Zhenwu Token!

Some less knowledgeable martial artists might not recognize this, but Du Sen is a member of the Zhenwu Bureau, so how could he not recognize it?

When did Chenyang City have a Zhenwu Token holder? Why has he never heard of it?

Despite having many questions in his mind, Dusen made the wisest choice at that moment.

He decisively stood in the crowd, like a true onlooker enjoying the spectacle...

With Chu Yuan and his companion gone, and no more excitement to be had, the crowd began to disperse.

Du Kai quickly noticed Du Sen and exclaimed in surprise, "Dad! What brings you here?!"

Du Sen said quietly, "How would I know you were such a troublemaker outside if I didn't come?"

"What do you mean?" Du Kai was stunned for a moment, then cried out in a wronged tone, "Dad, someone is bullying your son! They even said they were going to kill me!"

"What should we do then?"

"You're my dad! You have to stand up for me!"

Dusen's expression was strange: "Stand up for you?"

"Yes! He's the brother of the girl I like! He scared me to death just now!"

"Dad, please beat him up for me! But... don't go too hard." Du Kai seemed oblivious to Du Sen's unease, completely absorbed in his own fantasy, and said hesitantly, "After all, we might be family. If you beat him too hard, it'll be harder to get along with him later..."

"That won't do, we need to be ruthless..." Dusen slowly pulled out his belt: "There's no hope of standing up for you, but arranging your funeral is no problem!"

"Dad! What are you doing?!" Du Kai retreated in terror;

The sound of the belt buckling like firecrackers soon followed...

......

"Where is the old man who wanted to take you on as an apprentice?"

"I don't know. A few days ago, he suddenly said he had something to do and had to leave for a while." Chu Ying said casually, "Oh right, it was the day you went to the special training."

They left at the same time as me?

Chu Yuan's heart stirred; the coincidence of the timing forced him to speculate.

Was that drunkard old man also involved in Operation Seven?

"elder brother......"

"Um?"

Chu Ying looked annoyed: "I think you're a bit of a jinx!"

Chu Yuan was stunned. Following her gaze, he saw an old man drinking while leaning against a roadside bench...

Strange, this time they're not avoiding me anymore?

Noticing their gazes, the old man smiled at them.

Chu Ying pretended not to see and walked forward without looking to the side.

"Hey, kid, don't go, don't go!" The old man suddenly lost his composure and quickly got up to follow.

"Ugh, you're so annoying! I've told you countless times! I won't be your apprentice!"

"Heh, that's because you haven't seen how powerful Master is! Want Master to show you what he's got?"

Chu Yuan shielded Chu Ying behind him and calmly asked the old man, "My sister told me you've been harassing her?"

"Tsk, how can you call it entanglement..." The old man clicked his tongue forcefully. "You're Chu Yuan?"

Hearing this, Chu Yuan was fairly certain that the old man had indeed gone to participate in the Seventh Secret Realm matter a few days ago;

Otherwise, there's no reason to focus on oneself...

Of course, it's also possible that he specifically looked into Chu Ying's family.

But if that's the case, why didn't the old man see him last time, but he did this time?

"You know me?"

"You performed exceptionally well in this trial; I've heard many people are paying attention to you." The old man smiled, his eyes filled with admiration.

"What trial?" Chu Ying asked, confused.

Chu Yuan didn't answer her, but looked seriously at the old man: "Since you know me, then give me some face and stop bothering Chu Ying... how about it?"
