Realizing This Is A Wuxia World After Cultivating For 300 Years - Chapter 734

734 400 Years Before Leaving the Beginner’s Space (2)

Just yesterday, Cui Heng obtained a martial technique manual from the Lotus Flower Monastery, the Buddha’s Fury Heart Palm. He tried to use his Dharmic powers to execute this martial technique.

Hui Shi saw with his own eyes that this martial technique displayed unbelievable power in Cui Heng’s hands. It actually ignited a flame that was like the sun, making him feel that the world was about to be burned to ashes by this flame and everything was about to be destroyed.

This made Hui Shi wonder if the County Lord he traced back to was still a human. He was probably an Immortal who had descended from the sky.

Therefore, now that Cui Heng suddenly looked up at him, he felt very nervous and worried.

Could it be that this Immortal did not want a mortal like him to follow him?

“Hui Shi, who’s your ancestor?” Cui Heng asked with a smile. At the same time, he began to look into Hui Shi’s past.

After going back to the time when he was born, he went back to his father’s past at this time and so on, going back to 400 years ago.

The reason why he spoke to Hui Shi was to make the past correspond to the current conversation. It could make the process of backtracking more smooth and effective.

“Ah, ah?” Hui Shi was clearly stunned when he heard this. He was very surprised. He did not expect Cui Heng to ask this at all, but he still replied, “Immortal Venerable, my surname is Chen. My father was originally a general of the Great Jin and had fought on the battlefield for many years. Unfortunately, he was harmed by a traitor later on.

My grandfather was also a general in the army, and my grandfather was also in the army… My Chen family has basically been in the army since the end of the Yuan Dynasty. Only I became a monk.”

“What about before the end of the Yuan Dynasty?” Cui Heng continued to ask. Actually, at this moment, he had already returned to 400 years ago.

“Great Yuan was a place where barbarians lived in seclusion in the Central Plains, so our Chen family lived in seclusion.” Hui Shi could also tell that Cui Heng clearly wanted to ask about his past, so he continued, “Before we came to the Great Yuan, our Chen family was considered a scholarly family. We lived in Zhao Country and farmed and studied.

Our ancestors were once Prime Ministers. Later on, many of them became officials in the Imperial Court. However, at the end of the Great Zhao Dynasty, the Imperial Court was muddle-headed and the people were struggling to survive. My ancestor was plotted against by a bandit and was stripped of his position and became a commoner. He was exiled from the capital…”

Hui Shi recounted the history of his family. He knew these things very well.

Cui Heng was also comparing it with his past history and realized that the compatibility was extremely high. There were only a few blurry times and places that did not match. The overall authenticity was extremely high. This was very rare.

After figuring out the Chen family’s history in the past 400 years, Cui Heng confirmed the candidates he was going to look for next.

Hui Shi’s ancestor, Chen Tangwen, was the Minister of War of the Great Zhao. He was also a Profound Gate Realm Grandmaster and one of the top figures in the world.

However, because Minister Chen insisted on the policy of attacking the north, he repeatedly submitted reports and offended too many people. He had already been eliminated from the Imperial Court.

In order to overthrow Minister Chen, the Minister of Revenue, Official Personnel, and Rites jointly submitted a report. The Privy Minister tacitly agreed, and the Censorate even fabricated a series of crimes to impeach him.

In the end, Minister Chen was stripped of his position and exiled to Xiang County in the Southern Border.

It was a total of 3,000 miles from Linjing to Xiang County in the Southern Border. Along the way, there were all kinds of dense forests, swamps, and miasma. If one was not careful, they would die.

In history, Minister Chen also obtained some opportunities on the way to exile, but in the end, he still died of depression.

Cui Heng planned to take him away and teach him some martial techniques as an otherworldly expert so that he could live in seclusion in the future.

This could minimize his influence on the outside world.

Moreover, Chen Tangwen already had an heir before he was exiled. There was no need to worry about this affecting Hui Shi 400 years later.

As for how to make his identity be remembered by the world through Chen Tangwen.

Cui Heng already had a plan.

… .

On a remote mountain road, Chen Tangwen, who was dressed in ragged clothes, walked with difficulty.

As a former Qi Transformation Grandmaster, even if his martial cultivation was crippled, his body’s foundation was still intact. He should not have tired himself so easily.

However, along the way, the two constables who escorted him deducted his food rations. They only let him eat one bowl of porridge a day. They also walked on mountain roads and his limbs were shackled. Even men of iron would find it difficult to support themselves.

The two constables had dark faces and ordinary appearances. Their eyebrows were slender and they looked a little treacherous.

One of the constables was called Wang San. Seeing that Chen Tangwen was having a hard time walking, he stepped forward and kicked him. He mocked, “Minister Chen, aren’t you a Qi Transformation Grandmaster? You’re walking too slowly.”

Plop!

Chen Tangwen fell to the ground, and his hands were cut by the stones.

After staying in a weak state for a long time to rush along the mountain path, his physical condition was already extremely poor. Now that he was suddenly kicked down, his face immediately turned pale and his entire body trembled in pain.

However, Chen Tangwen still gritted his teeth and did not make a sound. He moved his body, wanting to stand up again.

Boom!

The other constable came over and kicked him again, causing Chen Tangwen, who had just arched his back, to lie on the ground again, unable to stand up.

This constable’s name was Li Er. He looked at Chen Tangwen, who was lying on the ground, with a carefree expression and said with a smile, “Haha, the former Grand Minister of War has also fallen at our feet. Satisfying, satisfying! Hahaha!”

The Minister of War was in charge of military affairs and was also known as the Grand Minister of War.

Wang San came over and squatted down. He smiled at Chen Tangwen and said, “Minister Chen, how about this? Kowtow to us brothers and we’ll let you have a full meal.”

Li Er also smiled and said, “It’s best if you can call me Grandpa.”

In their opinion, exile to the Southern Wilderness was a sure-death outcome.

Moreover, Minister Chen had been impeached by many ministers and was even disliked by the current Prime Minister. There was definitely no possibility of him making a comeback.

Naturally, they could humiliate him as they pleased.

Chen Tangwen did not reply. He only glanced coldly at the two constables and forced himself to stand up slowly again. Then, he walked forward with difficulty.

Wang San and Li Er were a little terrified by Chen Tangwen’s gaze just now. They stood rooted to the ground for a long time before coming back to their senses.

Li Er felt that he had lost face and could not help but curse, “Damn it, you old thing! You’re courting death!”

As he cursed, he wanted to rush over and kick Chen Tangwen again.

“Forget it.” Wang San raised his hand to stop Li Er. He lowered his voice and shook his head. “After all, this old thing was once a Grandmaster and had unlocked his Profound Gate. Even if his martial cultivation is crippled, he might still have some hidden ability. It’s fine if we play with him, but don’t anger him too much lest he becomes desperate.”

“Hmph!” Li Er waved his hand unhappily, but in the end, he nodded and said, “Alright, I’ll let him off.”

“Alright.” Wang San nodded and looked up at the sky. “Let’s go quickly. It’s getting late. It looks like it’s going to rain again. I just saw a dilapidated temple in front. Let’s spend the night there.”

“Alright, we should indeed leave quickly!” Li Er glanced at Chen Tangwen, who was staggering forward. He strode forward and shouted, “Minister Chen, you’re too slow. It’s almost dark. Let’s walk faster!”

As he spoke, he grabbed Chen Tangwen’s shackles and walked forward quickly. Immediately, Chen Tangwen’s footsteps became even more unstable.

However, Chen Tangwen still managed to stabilize himself and followed behind with difficulty.

… .

When night fell, Chen Tangwen was escorted to the dilapidated temple by Li Er and Wang San.

Li Er was the first to enter. His eyes narrowed as he greeted, “Haha, hello, everyone. I didn’t expect this road to be so lively.”

At this moment, there were already four people in this dilapidated temple. It looked like there were three groups.

One of them was an old man with a young girl. They looked like a father and daughter pair. The other two were a middle-aged monk and a young Daoist priest in feathered clothes.

From their attire and temperament, they should be martial artists.

Li Er shouted loudly. Actually, he was also reporting to Wang San behind him. Wang San, who was following behind, immediately became vigilant. He held the baton and was ready to attack at any time.

Chen Tangwen kept his head lowered and said nothing.

Wang San walked over and actually cupped his hands politely. “Everyone, we’re guards escorting prisoners and happened to pass by. It’s already late and we plan to stay here for the night. Is it inconvenient?”

The old man was the first to shake his head and say, “When my daughter and I came here, that Master and that Little Daoist were already here. The Little Daoist should have arrived first.”

The young Daoist priest was actually Cui Heng. He nodded slightly and smiled. “When traveling outside, everyone is just looking for convenience. I was just one step ahead of everyone. You can stay.”

At this moment, the middle-aged monk who was meditating with his eyes closed suddenly opened his eyes and said indifferently, “This poor monk advises you to leave this place immediately. Otherwise, you might suffer a fatal disaster.”
