Chapter 22 True Qi Charging

“Big Brother, Brother Fang Chen, it’s time for breakfast…”

The next day, Fang Chen was woken up by An Xiaojia. He sat up in bed. His stamina and true Qi had recovered a lot, but many parts of his body were uncomfortable.

Fang Chen knew this was the result of overexerting himself.

“Damn, I won’t dare do that again. Not only would it be harmful to the body, but it would also put me in danger.”

Fang Chen muttered a few words before pushing the door open.

“Brother Fang Chen, you are embarrassing. You’re still sleeping in at this age.” Seeing that Fang Chen was still half asleep, An Xiaojia made a face and teased him.

Fang Chen smiled bitterly and shook his head. There was no way to explain, so he could only admit that he had slept in.

When they arrived at the hall of the village chief’s house, they saw a large table full of dishes. The most conspicuous ones were two hot roasted chickens. One was placed in front of Old Fang, and the other was placed on the side where the village chief had invited Fang Chen to sit.

Fang Chen glared at Old Fang. It was obvious that Old Fang had asked the village chief to prepare roasted chicken for him last night. In the end, the village chief had also prepared one for him.

“Where’s Elder Xu? Is he not back yet?” Fang Chen did not see Xu Mianfeng and asked in surprise.

“No, I asked, and so did An Yongqiang. Elder Xu didn’t come back all night,” Old Fang replied quickly.

“Sir, will Elder Xu be alright?” The village chief asked worriedly.

Fang Chen shook his head and said, “Don’t worry, Elder Xu’s strength is at the top of the world. I think he’s thinking of eliminating the root of the problem and chasing that Demon Sect’s Saintess to her lair. This way, the Xiao An Village won’t have to worry about the Seven Kills Sect coming back.”

To be honest, Fang Chen did not think so himself. However, to the village chief and the others, he could only say what they wanted to hear. Otherwise, they would probably let their imagination run wild.

“Good, good, good. That’s great. Lord, please sit down. Let’s eat first. When Elder Xu comes back, we’ll cook another meal for him.”

When the village chief heard that it was useless, he became even more polite and respectful to Fang Chen and the others.

Fang Chen did not think too much about it and could only sit down to eat.

After breakfast, Fang Chen quickly recovered his True Qi. At noon, he finally recovered completely.

At this moment, the village chief also told the other villagers the good news that the Seven Kills Sect had been destroyed. Fang Chen and Old Fang instantly became the most popular existences in Xiao An Village.

Under all kinds of flattery and treatment that was not inferior to the Zhenbei Mansion, Fang Chen and Old Fang waited for Elder Xu for three days, but Elder Xu still did not appear. Of course, the Seven Kills Sect did not appear again.

“Old Fang, do you think Elder Xu got lost?” On the fourth day, after breakfast, Fang Chen asked Old Fang.

“Young Master, he might have forgotten about us and returned to the sect himself.” Instead of comforting Fang Chen, Old Fang gave another bad answer.

“I—”

When Fang Chen heard this, he felt that Elder Xu would not come back to look for them. After all, with Elder Xu’s strength, he would have returned long ago.

“If Elder Xu doesn’t come back, how long will we have to wait? Why don’t we go to the Whole Unitary Sect ourselves? Otherwise, I don’t know when I can practice martial arts.” Fang Chen was really a little impatient.

After all, he had to be strong for both things now. Otherwise, it would be very difficult to charge his phone, and the camera function could not be unlocked.

“No problem with me. I’ll follow wherever the young master goes.” Old Fang looked like a bachelor without any opinion. “Alright, we’ll leave after lunch.” Fang Chen made up his mind.

After lunch, Fang Chen and Old Fang bade farewell to the village chief.

The village chief had no choice but to prepare some rations for Fang Chen and the others. In the end, Fang Chen and Old Fang left the village reluctantly.

“Young Master, don’t forget that there’s a little wife here in seven or eight years.”

Not long after walking out of An Village, Old Fang could not help but tease.

Fang Chen glared at Old Fang and turned back to look at Xiao An Village. There was indeed a petite figure at the entrance of the village who refused to leave.

Feeling helpless, he spurred his horse and rode away from An Village.

An hour later, Fang Chen and Old Fang were both silent as they looked at the dilapidated scene before them.

“There must have been some kind of beast attack here, so everyone in the village was scared away. I don’t know what happened in the mountains here, but those beasts actually broke into the village,” Old Fang turned his head and sighed.

“For whatever reason, this has become an irrevocable disaster for the villagers here. It’s possible that the victims of the disaster we encountered along the way were the villagers here. Let’s hope they can settle down elsewhere,” Fang Chen said in a low mood.

“Let’s go. If this village is like this, I wonder if the village ahead is fine.”

Old Fang had previously confirmed that there were still two villages on this road where they could rest before nightfall. But now that one had been destroyed and the other was not far away, he was afraid that a disaster had befallen them as well.

More than half an hour later, they saw the same scene again. Both of them were worriedd.

“Sigh, although these small mountain villages can stand aloof from worldly affairs here, when they encounter disasters, even the officials are out of their reach. Why bother?”

People like Fang Chen who had transmigrated from the technological era could not understand the hometown of ancient people.

“Everyone holds their hometown dearly to them. If it weren’t for the fact that their lives are in danger, who would be willing to leave their hometown?” At this point, Old Fang’s eyes were filled with nostalgia, as if he had a special feeling about this question.

“Let’s go. It looks like we’ll have to sleep in the wilderness tonight. There are wild beasts around. We’d better get as far away from here as possible before it gets dark.” They quickly composed themselves and set off again. This time, they deliberately sped up, trying to get as far away from the threat of the dire beasts as possible.

Just like that, the two of them rode their horses and raised their whips. They ran wildly in the forest for the entire afternoon and ran dozens of kilometers. It was almost dark when they saw a dilapidated temple hidden in the forest. Only then did they decide to stop and rest.

After a rest, they ate and drank. Night fell. Because it was not safe in the wilderness, Fang Chen and Old Fang agreed to keep watch for each other.

Old Fang quickly fell asleep. Fang Chen was bored and looked at the moonlight outside. In the end, he decided to go to the courtyard of the dilapidated temple to practice his sword to kill time.

The Three Styles of Breeze could be said to be at Fang Chen’s fingertips now. As he continued to practice this sword technique, Fang Chen even began to have some other understanding of sword techniques.

“Yo, your sword technique is just like a human. You’re so handsome. I wonder if you can teach me.”

Just as Fang Chen was about to practice his sword and even thought that there would be some changes that he could use other methods, a faint voice was heard.
