BXBX NOVEL Chapter 1663 - 1663 The Old Master’s Residence?!
The middle-aged man muttered to himself, “But his behavior is completely different from what all the information suggests.
“Could he be hiding?
“Impossible. Even if he’s Damned Li’s disciple, he can’t hide from me!”
Then…
The middle-aged man raised an eyebrow and took a deep breath. After thinking for a while, he said to himself, “Should I go to Damned Li’s place and carefully look for any clues that I might have missed?”
Upon hearing this…
Fang Qiu trembled all over.
He really wanted to know if the person the man referred to as Damned Li was the old master.
If so…
Was Damned Li’s place where the old master used to live?
With this thought…
Fang Qiu became even more confused and furrowed his brows tightly.
In the room…
“Well, it’s better to search again to avoid missing any important information.”
The middle-aged man nodded and then walked out of the room. With a gentle smile on his face, he went downstairs to the parking lot, rode an electric bicycle, and left the community.
Fang Qiu crossed the wall directly from another direction, where there was no surveillance camera.
Afterward…
He headed out of the city.
At the same time, the middle-aged man was riding the electric bicycle, heading in the same direction as Fang Qiu.
Shortly after…
Both of them went out of the city.
In a shed near the city, after locking the bicycle, the middle-aged man walked outside the city and headed towards the hills.
Once he reached a deserted area, he moved and quickly flew forward like a ghost.
One kilometer away.
On the same horizontal line, Fang Qiu quietly followed.
They flew all the way swiftly.
After passing by two hills…
The middle-aged man finally stopped in a densely vegetated valley.
The valley was very narrow.
It seemed to be as wide as a ditch.
After entering the valley…
Without any hesitation, the middle-aged man directly crashed into one of the boulders in the valley.
However…
Instead of hitting the boulder, he went straight through it.
At the same time, a ripple of energy appeared on the surface of the boulder.
“Is this an illusion?”
Fang Qiu was curious.
He immediately flew over to take a closer look.
Then…
He found that it was not a boulder at all, but a layer of energy that had solidified. It would feel like a real boulder to ordinary people, and they would feel pain when they punched it.
Although it was physically real, it was indeed condensed from energy.
With just a touch, Fang Qiu could clearly feel that as long as he activated the internal Qi in his body, he could easily pass through this layer of energy and enter directly.
“There’s actually such a gate to a relic.”
Fang Qiu was surprised.
He didn’t expect that such a relic still existed in the world.
But…
Fang Qiu didn’t think much about it.
After feeling that he could enter at any time, Fang Qiu immediately activated the internal Qi in his body and went straight in.
At first…
Fang Qiu was ready to be discovered by the man.
However…
After entering, he found that the man had disappeared without a trace!
Looking around and confirming that the man was nowhere to be seen, Fang Qiu began to carefully observe his surroundings.
Here…
It was a vast expanse of land.
It looked like a meadow with a few trees. Apart from the trees, there were only grass and flowers everywhere. There were no vines or bushes at all.
It felt more like a tourist resort.
Looking into the distance…
Fang Qiu saw some pavilions, terraces and towers. They were not very large but of ancient simplicity.
After a thought…
Fang Qiu immediately tried to get closer.
When he approached, he indeed saw the man searching for something in a room.
However…
It was empty inside as if there was nothing inside.
“Huh?”
Suddenly, Fang Qiu saw a piece of calligraphy hanging on the wall of the room where the middle-aged man was.
“That’s, the old master’s handwriting…”
When Fang Qiu saw the calligraphy work, he was instantly shocked.
This place was really where the old master had lived!
Had the old master been living here all this time?
Or…
Had he already left when Fang Qiu was a sophomore in high school?
Within the pavilion…
“Still no clues.”
After searching for a long time, the middle-aged man stopped and furrowed his brows tightly, murmuring in confusion, “Who on earth is Damned Li’s disciple?
“How can there be no clues?”
As he murmured to himself with a frown, he started to ponder.
Just then…
“You don’t have to search anymore.”
A voice suddenly came from outside the door, saying, “It’s me!”
Outside the door…
Fang Qiu showed up directly.
He knew that this middle-aged man was definitely not a friend but an enemy, so he didn’t need to hide anymore.
Fang Qiu was well aware that since this man had already visited his family, he must pose a threat to his family, and in this situation, Fang Qiu had to eliminate this threat.
Otherwise, he would never feel at ease.
And most crucially…
Fang Qiu had too many questions about this man, about Damned Li, and about everything that he wanted to investigate.
He had to find out the truth.
What on earth had happened in Linxi County?
Thus, he had to reveal himself.
“Who are you?”
Seeing Fang Qiu, the middle-aged man was shocked in an instant.
He had never imagined such a scene.
Someone could silently appear behind him.
But…
Besides being shocked, he was also pleasantly surprised.
He had been trying to find and kill Damned Li’s disciple all this time. But after searching for so long, he still couldn’t find the person. He hadn’t expected that the person would come to him today.
“I’m the person you’re looking for!”
Hearing the man’s question, Fang Qiu responded without hesitation and then asked back, “Who are you? Why are you looking for me?”
“Who am I? Why am I looking for you?”
Upon hearing this, the middle-aged man couldn’t help but burst into laughter, laughing while saying, “Didn’t your master tell you about it?”
Fang Qiu raised an eyebrow.
Indeed, the old master had not told him anything.
“It seems that you really don’t know.”
Seeing Fang Qiu’s puzzled expression, the middle-aged man immediately sneered and said, “Since you’re about to die anyway, I’m not afraid to tell you that I come from the Nirvana organization!”
Upon hearing this…
Fang Qiu was shocked.
“Nirvana?”
This person was actually from the Nirvana Organization!
Was someone from the Nirvana organization in his hometown, right next to his parents, and under his nose?
Fang Qiu thought in shock.
But…
“Judging from the current situation, I’m dressed as John Doe. If he is from the Nirvana Organization, he should recognize me. But it seems that he doesn’t know me at all!”
Could someone from Nirvana not recognize John Doe?
Fang Qiu had his suspicions.
“How long have you been looking for me?”
Fang Qiu hurriedly asked.
“Hehe.”
The middle-aged man smirked and said, “I have been lurking in the surrounding cities for more than ten years. If I hadn’t received a clue that Damned Li was hiding in this area, do you think I would have suffered in this damn place for so many years?”
“How did you know that my master had taken me as his disciple?”
Fang Qiu asked again.
“He’s so badly injured. Wouldn’t he find a successor?”
The middle-aged man grinned and said arrogantly, “I came here with the purpose of finding out where Damned Li was hiding. Ten years ago, I noticed the abnormal Qi of Heaven and Earth here, indicating the existence of a small relic. When I came here, I indeed found traces of Damned Li. Moreover, I also discovered that this place must be filled with talented individuals. Since Damned Li was hiding here, he must have taken someone as his disciple, otherwise, he wouldn’t have stayed here for so long.”
“So, the purpose of you staying here is to find my master, right?”
Fang Qiu raised an eyebrow and asked.
“That’s right.”
The middle-aged man said with a smug smile, “The purpose of my staying here is to locate Damned Li, and then find and kill his disciple!”
“God helps those who help themselves. A year ago, I finally confirmed that Damned Li was here. I spent a whole year searching for you but failed. I didn’t expect you to come to me on your own. Haha…”
Hearing his words…
Fang Qiu was completely shocked, and his face changed abruptly.
“Was the old master still here a year ago?”
Didn’t that mean that the old master had never left and had been in his hometown all along?
At this thought…
Tears uncontrollably welled up in Fang Qiu’s eyes.
He felt a deep sense of self-blame.
His master was in his hometown all this time, but he had no idea at all.
The old master was so seriously injured, but as his disciple, he couldn’t take care of him or help him.
The more Fang Qiu thought about it, the more distressed he felt.
“Where’s my master?”
Fang Qiu asked, full of self-blame.
“Gone.”
The middle-aged man curled his lips and said, “I don’t know after his leaving here half a year ago. Otherwise, do you think I would dare to come in? Of course, don’t expect any help. If you die in Damned Li’s place, you can consider it as returning home, haha!”
“I have encountered people from the Nirvana Organization before.”
Fang Qiu narrowed his eyes, stared at the man, and said, “But I have never heard of you in the Nirvana Organization. Do you have a position in Nirvana?”
“Humph.”
Upon hearing Fang Qiu’s frivolous and disdainful tone, the middle-aged man was furious and said, “Let me make it clear to you. I am a Guardian of the Nirvana Organization!”
“A Guardian?”
Fang Qiu frowned.
He had killed a lot of Guardians!
But now, those Guardians and even Venerables, in the Nirvana Organization were not as powerful as this person in front of him. And, almost all the people in the Nirvana Organization were younger than him.
“No.”
Fang Qiu shook his head and said, “The Guardians of the Nirvana Organization are much younger than you, and they are all not as strong as you. You are not one of the Guardians of the Nirvana Organization!”
“Hee, hee…”
Hearing Fang Qiu’s doubts, the middle-aged man suddenly sneered and said, “I don’t mind telling you. A generation ago, I was one of the Guardians of the Nirvana Organization, ranked 10th. The ones you have seen are all from this generation. Of course, they can’t be compared with me!”
A generation ago?
Fang Qiu was quite taken aback.
He hadn’t expected that there would be a distinction between the previous and next generations within the Nirvana Organization!
