After Ye Chen returned to the room, he simply cleaned up the wound and then lay down and went to sleep. And the old man hadn't returned to his hut at the moment, but went to the place where he intercepted the man in black with Ye Chen a few days ago.

He has been worried since he intercepted the man in black that day, he knows Lin Zhentian's temper very well, and knows that he likes to engage in sneak attacks, so he is always on guard.

He didn't go back to his hut until the second half of the night, and the best time to sneak up was in the first half of the night, as long as he didn't come in the first half of the night, he basically wouldn't come.

Ye Chen got up early the next morning, I don't know if it was because he had suffered too many injuries during this time, no matter how tired he was, as long as he slept a little, he would be much better. In addition, I came back in the middle of last night, so I will get up early today.

Although the wound on his chest was still aching, he was afraid that Jiang Yingyue would worry about him, so he still endured it and kept quiet.

In the early morning, the air was exceptionally fresh, and he ran to a place outside the village in one go, and after running the true qi of his whole body for a week, he felt much better, and the wound was no longer so painful.

With the memories of last night, Ye Chen looked towards the mountain, only to see clouds and mist on the top of the mountain. There was a place that was out of step with everything around him, where a clearing was exposed, and the dirt on the ground could be faintly seen, and Ye Chen knew that it was the place where he fought the tiger yesterday.

"Hey, stinky boy, why did you get up so early, did last night's injury heal so quickly?"

Just as Ye Chen was looking at the top of the mountain and looking distracted, a voice suddenly came from behind him. Ye Chen looked back sharply, but found that the old man had come behind him at some point.

"You're going to be scared to death? You're all old, and you've been tossing for most of the night, why don't you sleep more?

"Hehe, you also know that I'm old, right? It's because I'm old that I can't sleep! Besides, the Shura Hall may come in the next two days, if I don't cheer up, do I have to rely on you to protect here?"

The old man stared at Ye Chen with a smile and joked, and Ye Chen was embarrassed to ask.

"From today onwards, there is no need to train anymore, the Shura Hall will attack soon, you have to keep your spirits up, I don't want you to be injured by then, and you still need me to protect you." ”

"How can I do that now, I'm a little done, right? I don't pay attention to the goods I did last time, and I can do it in a few clicks. Ye Chen lined up his chest and smiled very proudly.

The old man looked at him with a playful look when he heard this, and said, "Do you think you will meet someone like last time?" There are many masters in the Shura Palace, and there will definitely be many masters this time, do you think you are a master now? As a beginner, you should maintain a sense of awe and learn to be humble, and those who are not capable are conceited, I think you are like this now." ”

After listening to the old man's words, Ye Chen immediately put away his smile, he didn't know how much he was doing, and the reason why he said this was just to comfort himself in advance.

"I said old man, since they will come with so many masters this time, we will definitely not be able to parry, why don't we run?" Ye Chen asked.

"Well, you think you can run away?" the old man sighed.

"Even if you can run away, they will take their anger out on these innocent villagers when they come, can you bear to cause the whole village to suffer because of you alone? In other words, even if you run away, there are many minions in the Shura Palace, can they really not find you? The strength of the Shura Hall is beyond your imagination, and no one dares to touch it at all. ”

The old man's eyes were in a trance, and he remembered some old things from before.

"I haven't been in the rivers and lakes, so I don't understand what you're talking about. But I don't believe that there are no people to be afraid in the Shura Palace, didn't you mention before that you have a benevolent father? You said that he is an immortal, and the Shura Hall will definitely not dare to offend him, right?" Ye Chen said with a smile.

"Engong's cultivation is high, and there are few opponents in the world, if he wants to level the Shura Palace, it is not difficult for him. However, he also told me that the Shura Hall is not as simple as it seems on the surface, there is a behind-the-scenes promoter who controls the Shura Palace, and the strength is not below him, both of them know each other's existence, and they are afraid of each other. ”

The old man looked at Ye Chen, and told him lightly. After Ye Chen heard this, his expression was extremely solemn.

Although the old man seems to be frivolous, his evaluation is very pertinent. According to his mother's life experience, Ye Chen guessed that the fall of the Ye family back then must have something to do with the Shura Palace.

Now that he learned that there was a peerless fierce man behind the Shura Palace, this was a big blow to Ye Chen's revenge. Thinking that a person who had cultivated to a near-immortal level was his own enemy of exterminating the clan, Ye Chen's heart suddenly became a mess.

The old man looked at his expression, and immediately knew what he was worried about, and he soothed: "The path of cultivation is endless, you have wonderful roots, although it is not good now, but it will definitely become a great weapon in the future, otherwise Engong will not ask me to protect you." ”

"Protect me?" Ye Chen asked suddenly, staring at the old man with a serious face.

"This ...... I mean, you're going to be great in the future, or I wouldn't have taught you. The old man hurriedly explained, revealing the harmless appearance of humans and animals.

"Really? I just heard you mention your father-in-law. Ye Chen said.

"Slip of the tongue, slip of the tongue. ”

The old man smiled and put his hand on his shoulder, and changed the topic: "I still have to help the children, so I will go first, you play slowly." ”

The old man walked away, Ye Chen stared at his back, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that this old man was not simple.

After wandering around for a while, Ye Chen returned home, now he didn't have to train, he naturally had to help his mother.

After another two days like this, the external injuries left by the tiger on Ye Chen's body were almost healed, and the old man went to his house again to take him out.

Along the way, Ye Chen kept asking the old man where he was going, but no matter how he asked, the old man didn't speak.

"Where are you going to take me, are you going to train me again?" Ye Chen asked.

The old man didn't turn his head after hearing this, he didn't pay attention to it, he had a cold face, extremely serious. In Ye Chen's memory, he had never seen the old man so 'serious', and he couldn't help but wonder if the old man was in trouble.

The two walked all the way to the outside of the village, and after meeting the man in black a few days ago, Ye Chen couldn't help but ask again.

This time, the old man still didn't say anything, just took out a letter from his arms and handed it to Ye Chen behind him with his backhand.

Ye Chen opened the letter suspiciously, and was shocked when he saw the contents.

"So soon, I thought I'd have to wait two more days!"

After Ye Chen finished reading it, he exchanged the letter with the old man, and his face became solemn.

"Last night, one of Lin Zhentian's subordinates sneaked into the village and quietly gave it to me. The old man walked as he spoke.

"I lived at the entrance of the village last night, and I only slept in the middle of the night last night, why didn't I notice it?"

"It's normal that you don't notice. Only then did the old man turn his head and glance at Ye Chen.

"This person's cultivation is not low, above you, and the experience of the rivers and lakes is better than yours, so it's strange that you can perceive his existence. ”

"Lin Zhentian asked me to get together outside the village, he must have tried to persuade me to be nosy, so it's just right, I can also see how many people they have come this time. ”

"He'll let you go! Aren't we going like this? Maybe they've already laid a trap and are waiting for us to drill into it!" Ye Chen said anxiously.

"Lin Zhentian is not that kind of person, I know him, I haven't seen him for many years, he won't do it rashly until he understands my current strength. The old man said with great confidence.

"Oh! It's been decades, people will change, are you sure that he is still the same person you knew back then? Besides, didn't you kill so many masters of the Shura Hall back then and then seriously injured him? Even if you had a relationship with him in the past, I'm afraid it would have long since faded away. ”

Ye Chen anxiously persuaded the old man, hoping that he would not be rash and go to see that Lin Zhentian.

"You are still young, you don't understand the grievances and grievances in the rivers and lakes decades ago, even if Lin Zhentian and I are brothers, we are also enemies, even if he wants to kill me, he will come with a real sword and a real gun, and he will not engage in any tricks of sneak attack traps, this, I believe him." The old man was still extremely confident, and he didn't listen to Ye Chen's words at all.

The old man said so, and Ye Chen didn't want to persuade him more, he just prayed secretly, hoping that he wouldn't be emotional for a while.

After walking for a long distance, the two came to a canyon with steep cliffs on both sides, and only a narrow mountain path in the middle.

This place is called a line of heaven, and it is the only road in and out of the mountain village. When the old man arrived, he stopped and looked at the cliffs on both sides.

"Brother Qingyun, I haven't seen you for many years, don't come here unharmed?"

There was a sudden sound in the valley, Ye Chen was startled when he heard this, and looked around but didn't find a single figure.

The old man was not as helpless as Ye Chen, as soon as the voice sounded, he had already locked the person's position. The moment he entered the valley, he noticed that there were people on the cliff.

Ye Chen looked around and didn't see anyone, but found that the old man was calm and calm on the side, and after looking in the direction he was looking, Ye Chen vaguely saw a figure trembling on the cliff.

"Look, I'll just say there's an ambush! They are condescending, and now we are miserable. Ye Chen's face changed greatly, and he couldn't help but slowly retreat.

When the old man heard this, he glanced back at him, grabbed him without saying a word, and flew into the air in a leap, and then he reached out and grabbed a rock, and jumped up a distance with his strength, so that after two or three times, he came to the top of the cliff in one leap.
