"Sigh, I don't know why, but I keep having a bad premonition. I'm even suspecting that the mastermind behind this had something to do with what happened in your Chen family that year." Song Yang sighed.

"Are you kidding? "How could that be? That was more than twenty years ago." Zhang Nan laughed bitterly, he felt that this was impossible.

"Have you forgotten what Yan Chixia said?" In the past, when your father was killing fiendish demons in Guizhou, it was my master who killed them with him. " Song Yang asked.

"What you mean is, this matter was done by the old Heavenly Master?" Zhang Nan squinted his eyes with a look of disbelief.

"I am not sure if he is my master or not, but I feel that if something happened to your Chen Family, it definitely has something to do with him. Even if it is not, as his companion in the pursuit of demons with Master Chen, he must have known some things about that year. If he did not want to harm the Chen Family, then in the face of danger, Master Chen should have entrusted you to him. Yet, Chen Tianshi actually sent the news to Yan Chixia, who is thousands of miles away.

"Now that you mention it, you have really enlightened me. Now that I think about it, this matter is really strange, but why would he do that? One more thing. If he wanted to kill our Chen family members, why did he help me afterwards? Not kill me? " Zhang Nan asked in confusion.

"Maybe, he really did think that your Chen Clan members were all dead and didn't know that you were secretly adopted by someone. Maybe he knew, but he had an even bigger motive, so he couldn't kill you." Song Yang analyzed.

"A greater purpose? What could that be? "The Chen family has been destroyed, I am just a poor scholar, what can he get from me?" Zhang Nan said, puzzled.

"Have you forgotten that you possess a powerful bloodline?" Song Yang said.

"To do this, we have to kill the entire Chen Family? This was simply too cold-blooded. What was the wrong with the other members of the Chen Clan? "I must investigate this matter thoroughly and restore the Chen family's innocence." Zhang Nan gritted his teeth and said fiercely.

"I'll help you investigate." Song Yang patted Zhang Nan's shoulders as he consoled him.

"Brother Song, thank you, but this matter might very well involve the old Heavenly Master, aren't you afraid that it might really be him?" Zhang Nan asked.

"If it really is him, then it proves that he is not a good person. I have nothing else to say." Song Yang said.

But the Wang Family Village is different from the Li Family Village. Tomorrow, we will go to these two villages and ask this Wang Kun Hua and Li Yun Ye about it. If they die, their son will eventually know something. Zhang Nan said.

At night, Zhang Nan lay on his bed, tossing and turning, unable to sleep. His mind was filled with the matters of the Chen Family, the events of twenty years ago.

"What's wrong? Are you still restless? Are you still thinking about what you just said to Song Yang?" Fox Fairy leaned into Zhang Nan's embrace and said with pain in his heart.

"I really don't understand, old Heavenly Master, such a kind-looking person could actually be the culprit who framed my Chen family back then." Zhang Nan spat out a mouthful of impure Qi, he just felt his chest getting stuffy.

"Whether it is him or not, we will find out sooner or later. Don't think too much about it. Rest well. Tomorrow, we will investigate." Fox Fairy comforted Zhang Nan.

"You're right. These things can only be known after investigating. Even if I were to break my head now, it would be useless." Zhang Nan pursed his lips and smiled, then gently closed his eyes and fell asleep.

The next morning, they cleaned up early, ate some food, and headed to the Li family village to find Li Yunye.

Whether or not the incident that year was related to old Heavenly Master Yang Chunxiong or not, according to Yan Chixia's words, it must be related to Li Yunye from the Li Family Village and Wang Kunhua from the Wang Family Village.

If he went to these two families, he would definitely be able to get something out of them.

Li Yunye was the village head of the Li family village. His prestige was very high, so they quickly found out the location of his home.

Originally, he thought that Li Yunye was already gone, but he did not expect him to still be alive. He was around eighty years old, and when Zhang Nan and a few others opened the door and reported their intentions, Li Yunye's withered old eyes suddenly flashed with a light.

"Hmph, back then when he said that he would let you live, I knew that one day, you would come looking for him." Li Yunye bent his body and said with an aged voice.

"Seems like you know quite a lot about what happened back then?" "Then tell me, why did you guys want to deal with our Chen family in such a cruel manner?" Zhang Nan questioned Li Yunye.

"We have let down your Chen family, your Chen family can defeat demons and exterminate demons, we love and admire them. However, we will repay them with kindness, forcing your Chen family to retreat with no way to survive." Li Yunye's face was filled with guilt, "People only feel guilty for doing wrong things when they are about to enter the loess. Only then will they realize their own mistakes."

"But sooner or later, you will have to pay it back. Right now, it is better than after you have died. Right now, it might just be to kill you. However, if you die, I'm afraid you will be whipped to ashes." Zhu Liu said.

"I know that retribution will come sooner or later, and I've never asked for the Chen family's forgiveness." Li Yunye bitterly smiled and said.

"Forgive? Who would ever forgive the death of everyone in the Chen Clan? How can I forgive you? " Zhang Nan asked.

Kill me, there's no way to save what happened back then. I won't tell you the reason why. If you come here to seek revenge, then kill me. Li Yunye said.

"I came here to ask the truth, not to kill you." Zhang Nan said.

"Truth? "What we did was what we did, and that is the truth. As for everything else, I beg your pardon." Li Yunye laughed.

"Old thing, I think you've really gotten tired of living, haven't you? You've already let down the Chen family for what happened back then. Now, when they asked for it, you didn't say anything. Do you have any shame? Are you still human? You have lived dozens of years for nothing? " Qin Yuanyuan pointed to Li Yunye and said snappily.

I want to tell him, but I can't. I don't feel good about this either, I've been holding it in for so many years, ah! Like I said, not only my family, even the entire Li family village will die. I have let down your Chen family for my own selfish sake twenty years ago. Now, for the sake of the entire Li family village, forgive me for being selfish once again, but now that I have died, you can take your revenge on me no matter what you want to do. After Li Yunye finished speaking, he suddenly pulled out a dagger and stabbed it towards his chest without any hesitation.
