Chapter 358 Fanatic Little Brother

In the Fang Family's inner courtyard.

The inner courtyard was a forbidden area for the family's juniors, and even the Head couldn’t easily step in without prior notice.

Only Fang Wanli, the ancestor of the Fang Family, could come and go freely. The inner courtyard was where Fang Tingjian, the old ancestor of the Fang Family, remained in seclusion.

There were formations placed everywhere, and if an ordinary Foundation Building Realm cultivator accidentally triggered them, the consequence would be death or severe injuries.

Fang Wanli had been waiting for a long time, so when he saw Fang Ao bringing Fang Chen over, he waved his hand to signal Fang Ao to step back.

Fang Ao bowed, glanced at Fang Chen, then turned and left.

"I never expected this, Kid," said Fang Wanli a little curiously. "Are you an Immortal Origin Stone Master?"

"I once obtained a manual that recorded some Immortal Origin Stone techniques, but the title of Immortal Origin Stone Master is probably far beyond my reach," replied Fang Chen.

Fang Wanli nodded slightly. He suddenly became curious about which sect or school Fang Chen had practiced in before coming to the Grand Qian Empire.

"What do you want to see me for, ancestor? Is there anything you need to tell me?" asked Fang Chen.

"It's not me who wants to see you, it's my uncle," said Fang Wanli with a faint smile. "Follow me. The juniors who get to meet my uncle are far and few between. Fang Lingxing is one, and you are the second."

Was Fang Tingjian the person who wanted to meet me?

Fang Chen was momentarily stunned, then calmly nodded and followed Fang Wanli toward the secluded courtyard.

Fang Chen had a hunch why Fang Tingjian wanted to see him.

But Fang Chen also wanted to see if he could learn about the secrets of the past from this old ancestor, so it worked out.

Fang Tingjian was standing with his hands clasped behind his back in front of a hall. When he saw Fang Chen, a faint smile appeared on his pale face.

"You're called Fang Chen, right?"

Fang Chen bowed. "I am Fang Chen. I pay respects to you, Ancestor."

"It's been four hundred years. If my elder brother knew that another talent had emerged among the younger generation, he will probably be able to rest in peace," Fang Tingjian said softly.

Fang Tingjian snorted coldly and changed the subject, "Fang Chen, have you ever met that senior in the past?"

"I haven't met him," replied Fang Chen.

"I heard he gave you something?"

Fang Chen directly took out the Greenwood Token and handed it to Fang Tingjian.

"The Greenwood Token... it seems that the senior intends to form a bond with you. In the future, you can use this token to see if you can become his disciple," said Fang Tingjian thoughtfully while playing with the token.

Afterward, he returned the Greenwood Token to Fang Chen and advised him to keep it safe. Then, after chatting a bit more, he waved his hand to dismiss Fang Chen and Fang Wanli.

Fang Wanli quickly left the courtyard with Fang Chen. Shortly after, he whispered, "Fang Chen, did your ancestor leave behind any admonitions or sayings?"

Fang Chen was momentarily stunned.

What sort of question is this?

Seeing that Fang Chen seemed a bit confused, Fang Wanli whispered, "Remember when I told you that a gentleman should not delay his revenge?"

Fang Chen nodded. "I do."

"That's what Uncle Fang Tingyuan once told me," continued Fang Wanli. "I remember that year, I was only sixteen, and I was severely injured by Jue Feichen. I had to lie in bed for several months. When Uncle Fang Tingyuan came to visit me, he told me this. When my injuries recovered, I immediately spent money to hire several cultivators to ambush Jue Feichen and incapacitate him."

Fang Wanli looked proud as he said this.

"Since then, Jue Feichen has not dared to offend me easily." Pausing for a moment, Fang Wanli added, "If Uncle Fang Tingyuan left any useful words, you must tell me!"

"Haha, you truly are a little admirer of our family's ancestor." Fang Chen couldn't help but sigh inwardly. After thinking for a moment, he shook his head and said, "My ancestor did not leave behind any wisdom."

"I see..." Fang Wanli looked a bit disappointed.

"Where was Uncle Fang Tingyuan buried? I want to burn incense for him."

"To be honest, our lineage has a short lifespan due to being martial artists. By the time my generation came around, it had already been many generations since my ancestor. We have experienced migrations and crises in between. So, we don't where the ancestor was buried," explained Fang Chen.

Fang Wanli sighed, fell silent for a while, then nodded. "Alright, you can go back now."
