Chapter 37
Xiao Chen stayed in the Sha family. Other than cultivating the Power of Desolates and practicing his swordsmanship, he would either sleep or daydream like Da Huang. His days were rather comfortable, and the only thing he worried about was his grandfather’s illness and whether the Sha family could find the Dragon Heart Grass for him.
Xiao Chen had been in the Sha family for three days. Other than Sha Ruo, who came to the yard to greet Xiao Chen, and a maidservant who brought him three meals a day and a set of roasted meat, Xiao Chen did not see any other members of the Sha family. It was as if the Sha family had forgotten about him.
At this moment, Xiao Chen was lying on a bed on the second floor. His hands were behind his head and his eyes were wide open. He stared at the ceiling in a daze. It was unknown what he was thinking about.
The yellow dog was curled up on the ground beside him, sleeping soundly. It was as if other than being interested in the roasted meat, it was sleeping, and it did not look like it had enough sleep.
“No, I can’t just wait like this. I can’t completely rely on the Sha family to find the Dragon Heart Grass. Who knows if the Sha family is tricking me?
Grandfather’s illness cannot be delayed. He has already been out for about two months. I wonder if Grandfather is doing well?
I should go to the Sha Emperor City myself to find out where the Dragon Heart Grass is.
If there is any news, I will immediately leave this uncomfortable place. ”
Xiao Chen suddenly muttered to himself. He jumped up from the bed and got off the bed. He grabbed the wooden sword beside him and tied it to his back before heading downstairs.
The sleeping yellow dog opened its eyes slightly and glanced coldly at Xiao Chen’s back. It then closed its eyes and continued to sleep, as if it was not worried about what Xiao Chen was going to do.
Xiao Chen walked down the first floor and arrived at the yard. Just as he was about to leave the yard, he suddenly stopped in his tracks. His sharp eyes coldly looked at the arched door of the yard with a hint of hope. This was because he sensed that someone was walking towards his yard. Furthermore, it was someone he knew. A look of doubt appeared on his face as he muttered, “Sha Ruo?
Didn’t he come this morning? ”
“Young Master!
Young Master! ”
Indeed!
Military Kill Ripper’s voice reached his ears before he even arrived.
A moment later, a dark-faced man dressed in a general’s robe quickly strode into the courtyard and appeared in front of Xiao Chen.
When Army Breaker saw that Xiao Chen was fully armed and ready to go out, he was slightly taken aback. He immediately smiled and asked, “Young Master, are you going out?”
“Senior Sha, what’s the matter?”
Xiao Chen didn’t answer Military Kill Ripper’s question. Instead, he asked in return. After a pause, he added, “Is there any news of Dragonheart Grass?”
“Eh … Young Master, the Dragon Heart Grass is not an ordinary item. It is extremely rare. The Clan Head has already given the order that anyone from the Sha Clan who finds the Dragon Heart Grass must obtain it at all costs. Furthermore, the Clan Head has also announced to the entire Killing God Tribe that anyone who helps the Sha Clan find the Dragon Heart Grass or provides any information regarding the whereabouts of the Dragon Heart Grass will be heavily rewarded by the Sha Clan. So, Young Master, you don’t have to worry. I believe that there will be results very soon.”
“Oh.”
Xiao Chen let out a disappointed ‘oh’ and started to walk out of the courtyard, leaving Military Kill Ripper at the side.
When Heaven Kill Ripper saw Xiao Chen’s cool appearance, he couldn’t help but shake his head and smile bitterly. He thought to himself, “Young Master, wait a moment. I am here to pass on a message. The Third Elder is asking for you!”
“Third Elder?” Heaven Kill Ripper saw how cool Xiao Chen was and couldn’t help but shake his head and smile bitterly. He thought to himself, “Young Master, wait a moment. I am here to pass on a message. The Third Elder is asking for you!”
“Third Elder?”
When Xiao Chen, who was walking, heard the anxious voice behind him, he stopped and tilted his head slightly. He spoke with doubt as though he was trying hard to recall if there was such a person in his mind.
Of course, Heaven Kill Ripper could see that the doubt on Xiao Chen’s face wasn’t fake and instantly felt speechless. However, when he thought about Xiao Chen’s personality, he didn’t find it strange. He smiled apologetically and said, “En, the Sha Clan’s Third Elder is looking for you. The Third Elder is the one who spoke up for you previously.”
“Lead the way.”
Xiao Chen remembered that there seemed to be a middle-aged man with a slightly dignified square face. His expression softened a little and he agreed to meet him. After all, he had made a deal with the other party. He had to do something, right?
Heaven Kill Ripper couldn’t keep up with Xiao Chen’s train of thought. He smiled bitterly and ran in front of Xiao Chen to lead the way obediently.
He knew that Xiao Chen had been staying in the yard for the past few days. Naturally, he didn’t know where the Third Elder lived.
The Sha Clan’s mansion was very big. If Xiao Chen were to wander around the Sha Clan alone, he might get lost, let alone find the Third Elder’s residence. Even with someone leading the way, it still took him the time of an incense stick to burn to get out of the left yard.
“Eh?
Who was that uncouth kid who carried a wooden sword on his back?
Why haven’t I seen him before? ”
“Young Master Killer Yu. That’s the country bumpkin who injured my second brother. He’s now the young master of the Sha Clan. His status is very high. He even dares to offend the Seventh Young Master!”
Just as Xiao Chen and Young Master Killer were walking on one of the four main roads of the Sha Clan toward the backyard, two men’s sarcastic voices came from behind.
Xiao Chen heard the sarcastic words behind him. He paused for a moment but didn’t turn around. He continued walking forward after a while.
As the Sha Clan’s guard leader, Heaven Kill Ripper couldn’t ignore the three people behind him. He turned around awkwardly and said, “Heaven Kill Ripper greets the young masters!
The Third Elder is looking for Young Master Xiao Chen. Can you make an exception? ”
Heaven Kill Ripper’s identity was different now. As the Sha Clan’s guard leader, he didn’t want to see Xiao Chen severely injure one or more of the Sha Clan’s collateral relatives in front of him. Therefore, when he bowed, he subtly mentioned that he was bringing Xiao Chen to meet the Third Elder. If these three young masters weren’t idiots, they naturally wouldn’t provoke Xiao Chen anymore.
“Heaven Kill Ripper, are you coming or not?
If not, I’m going back to sleep. ”
Xiao Chen frowned and said unhappily when he saw Heaven Kill Ripper, who was leading the way, stop to greet the collateral young masters behind him.
“Ah?”
Heaven Kill Ripper was stunned. He immediately understood that Xiao Chen was the young master of the Sha Clan. Compared to the three collateral young masters, his status was much more honorable. Therefore, he immediately replied awkwardly, “I’m leaving now. This way, Young Master. Hehe.”
Heaven Kill Ripper ignored the three collateral young masters. Although his current status wasn’t on par with the collateral young masters, he had Young Master Xiao Chen’s protection. There was no reason for him to be overly afraid of the collateral young masters. Therefore, he turned around and continued to lead the way.
Xiao Chen, on the other hand, followed behind expressionlessly.
“Sha Mu, he’s the idiot who offended the Seventh Young Master?
If I didn’t see him, I wouldn’t have believed your words. Now, I believe it. Haha! ”
“That’s right. He doesn’t know that he has offended someone he shouldn’t have. A barbarian who crawled out from god knows which mountain actually dares to impersonate the clan’s young master. I heard that he even offended the Grand Elder and the Second Elder. Do you think he will suddenly disappear from this world one day?
Hehe … ”
“Oh?
He’s just a bastard who isn’t even a descendant of the Sha Clan. It’s normal for him to disappear. Haha! ”
As Xiao Chen and Sha Mu were walking, the three collateral young masters’ mocking laughter came from behind them. This time, it was even more ear-piercing and unpleasant.
Xiao Chen and Heaven Kill Ripper stopped at the same time.
Idiot!
Idiot!
Seeking death!
This was what Heaven Kill Ripper was thinking. If it wasn’t for his status, he would have cursed out loud. Black lines appeared on his forehead, and his heart began to mourn for the three idiots behind him. With Xiao Chen’s wolf-like personality, he would definitely make a move.
