I Am Born With A Sliver Spoon

Chapter 735

A large spell formation covered all members of the Gu Family; the dramatic fate which awaited them next was death. At the moment of their death, they became overwhelmed by complex feelings of fear, regret, anger and other emotions. But Chen Hao could not bring himself to have mercy on them anymore, for if he did not kill them now, they would become a threat to him in the future. Following the release of energy within the spell formation of his Golden Vision, the people trapped inside turned into ashes in a split second. Chen Pingan was completely shocked by the power of the spell formation. He thought, Hao’s transformation is truly terrifying!

After saving Jiannan, Li Ba and the others, Chen Pingan called Chen Hao to the secret room. Chen Hao was in shock after he listened to Chen Pingan’s explanation. “Uncle, did you mean that grandpa didn’t die? That mysterious man who was spying on me was grandpa?”

With a complicated expression on his face, Chen Pingan nodded and said, “Yes, the reason I didn’t mention it before was because I wasn’t so sure about it. But now, I’m very sure that it’s him!”

Chen Hao recalled that time when he traveled back in time and had a fight with the mysterious man, he thought the guy looked very familiar. He recalled details about the man after listening to Chen Pingan’s explanation. Indeed, the man’s eyes really resembled grandpa’s eyes. So, does that mean that the mystery guy was grandpa? And he was probably the one who destroyed my cultivation foundation too?

Even though Uncle Pingan told him to brace myself for the truth, he still found it incredibly unbelievable and he was utterly shocked when he heard about it. How was that even possible? His ever so kind grandfather who always loved and cared about him didn’t seem like someone who was capable of concealing himself and controlling everything in secret. If grandpa was indeed the bad guy, then all those Spirit Flowers he planted in the Soul Palace were proof that he was hiding something—Grandpa certainly didn’t collect those flowers for nothing!

“Even if that’s true, Uncle, maybe we should talk about it again after we meet grandpa. I really can’t bring myself to believe that it’s him!” said Chen Hao.

Chen Pingan nodded. “Of course, we’ll talk about this after we found your grandfather. As for the existence of the other Chen Family, I’ll investigate it right away!”

Chen Hao and Chen Pingan had a long chat together until late at night. From their conversation, although they were in denial about Chen Hao’s grandfather being the most likely suspect, there was still all sorts of evidence leading them to think otherwise. Since his grandfather knew the location of the ancient tomb, it was easy for him to sneak into the cave, kill the giant python and take the Celestial War God’s body; everything seemed logical that way. Besides, Master Ghost reminded Chen Hao to be careful with someone close to him when he predicted his future previously. However, Chen Hao did not pay much attention to his prediction before this. Perhaps what Master Ghost meant back then was to remind Chen Hao to be careful with his grandfather?

Of course! Master Ghost! Chen Hao suddenly thought of him. He disappeared without a trace due to Yun Qing’s incident. Where can he be? If I can find him now, he’ll be able to tell me some secrets! According to Uncle, Ziyan had gone somewhere else now and the King of Nine Doors is still tailing her. So, I’m afraid she won’t be able to return so soon.

Thus, Chen Hao had no choice but to place his hopes on Master Ghost now. It was very likely that Master Ghost could help him find the whereabouts of his family and tell him about matters regarding his grandfather. Right now, Chen Hao must think of a way to find him.

On the next day, Chen Hao and Chen Pingan had decided on where they would go next. Chen Pingan would help with locating Ziyan and Shen Lan, whereas Li Ba and the others would be in charge of transferring the headquarters of the Chen Family to Jin Ling. As for Chen Hao, he decided to go back to Dragon Mountain first; before this, Zhu relayed Master Ghost’s message to him but he did not

manage to hear its full interpretation on the message. After that, Yun Qing went there too but he was unsure whether Zhu was still there.

A few days later, Chen Hao arrived at Dragon Mountain. He thought the place would still be desolate and quiet as usual. However, the place was quite unexpectedly very crowded. He saw a long queue at the place when he arrived; it seemed as if the place had returned to its former glory.

What’s going on here? Perhaps Master Ghost is back? Chen Hao thought in surprise.

He stepped forward and had a look, but the more he looked, the more puzzled he was. Besides the large crowd that stood outside and waited respectfully, there were a lot of people kneeling in the direction of Dragon Temple too. Judging from the pious look in their eyes, they looked like a bunch of faithful believers who had been through thousands of years of baptism. Chen Hao thought their behavior was silly, so he smiled bitterly and shook his head. From NôvelDrama.Org.

“Hey you there, stop right there!” Suddenly, a sharp voice interrupted Chen Hao’s thought. He turned around and saw a young girl with a ponytail who seemed to be in her twenties. She placed her hands on her hips and was glaring at him.

“Eh? Miss, do I know you?” Chen Hao asked with a smile.

The girl frowned and asked coldly, “I’m the one who should be asking. What’s so funny about seeing my grandfather kneeling down here? And what’s with that helpless look on your face?”

In fact, she had noticed Chen Hao from earlier on. Everyone was queueing up politely at the bottom of the mountain; they were either standing or kneeling. And suddenly, from out of nowhere, there was a person with an unconcerned expression and a bitter smile on his face, who kept walking toward the top of the mountain. The world was indeed full of strange and maverick people! But it was her first time to come across someone as strange as Chen Hao, who even dared to look down on her grandfather. Naturally, she was furious.

“I do not mean to mock your grandfather. It’s just that you guys look like reputable people, so why do you have to kneel at Dragon Mountain?” Chen Hao asked curiously.

“You’re still talking nonsense! I think you’re asking for it!” The girl was infuriated, thinking that Chen Hao was insulting her again. Who do you think you are? I’ll teach you a lesson today for being so cocky!

Suddenly, the girl moved swiftly toward Chen Hao to attack him by throwing a punch at him.

Among the kneeling crowd, there was an elderly man and another middle-aged man. Both men raised their eyes and observed the girl’s attack; the speed of her attack was extremely fast. Even at such a young age, the girl’s strength exceeded the combined strength of dozens of young men. The elderly man smiled faintly in recognition of the girl’s exceptional ability. I suppose the arrogant young man is going to get it.

“Geez, it’s okay if you don’t want to talk. There’s no need to attack me!”

Despite the girl’s incoming punch, Chen Hao simply smiled bitterly and shook his head. He did not retaliate nor dodge the punch, merely turned around slowly and continued walking. Indeed, his movements appeared so natural and plain, yet the girl’s powerful punch simply brushed through his body just like that; the outcome caught everyone by surprise. The sequence of movements appeared so swift and smooth as though it had been rehearsed countless times under the instruction of an experienced action movie director.

“What?” The girl could not believe that her punch had missed its target. Meanwhile, the elderly man and the middle-aged man goggled at them with bulging eyes as their breathings became rapid suddenly.

“Mister, please wait a moment!”
