C156

Chu Mubai could not help but be secretly shocked, there was no doubt that Chu Xiaotian had definitely reached the realm of 'Refining the Force into the Marrow'.

Chu Xiaotian stared at Chu Shaohai, he turned and his gaze immediately became gentle, he looked deeply into Chu Mubai's eyes, his mouth formed a strange smile, but did not say anything, he patted Chu Mubai's shoulders and said: "Not bad, go in."

Chu Mubai laughed dryly, and his scalp went slightly numb.

During the exchange just now, Chu Mubai had been forced to use 'Spirit Finger'. This move might not have been able to hide from Chu Shaohai, but with Chu Xiaotian's experienced eyes, how could he possibly have escaped.

Chu Mubai secretly wiped the cold sweat off his forehead.

"Let's go."

Chu Xier supported Chu Mubai and walked into the patriarch's residence.

The decorations in the Clan Chief's Mansion were extremely simple, there were basically no extravagant goods, it was simple and clear, and there was not a single servant serving them. Chu Mubai knew, Chu Xiaotian was not simple, but did not trust the people of his clan.

Thinking about the clan's traitors, Chu Mubai silently sighed in his heart.

Passing through the main hall, they entered an open inner room. Chu Xier supported Chu Mubai and sat on the bed.

"Don't talk, relax."

Chu Xiaotian sat crossed legged across from him, and before Chu Mubai could react, he pinched both of his hands and pointed at Chu Mubai's forehead.

"Master …"

As Chu Xiaotian pointed, a thread of cool and refreshing 'marrow aura' flowed along Chu Mubai's forehead into his body, and slowly flowed through his meridians. Wherever the 'marrow aura' went, all his limbs and bones would go numb, and the injuries between his flesh and bones would gradually heal.

Chu Mubai could not help but let out a low moan.

Chu Xier nervously looked at Chu Xiaotian. Chu Xiaotian's aged face gradually became dark and gloomy and his aura continuously withered, as if he had suffered an enormous consumption.

Of the six stages of the Martial Dao, the Marrow Qi of Destiny that was nourished by the third level of the Refinement Realm was something that couldn't be easily moved.

Using the 'Essence of Marrow' to nourish Chu Mubai's body was already an extreme consumption of energy, and it would be impossible to make up for it without cultivating for three to five days.

Chu Xiaotian's finger pointed at Chu Mubai's forehead. Chu Mubai was simply incapable of moving at all and could only watch helplessly as Chu Xiaotian used "Marrow energy" to treat his injuries. Only after five minutes did Chu Xiaotian slowly retract his energy and retract his finger.

Once Chu Mubai regained control of his body, he spat out a mouthful of impure Qi and quickly opened his eyes and looked at Chu Xiaotian.

"Grandfather!"

"I'm fine."

Chu Xiaotian waved his hand, "Rest for two days is enough."

As Chu Xiaotian said this, his expression clearly showed that he was extremely tired. As Chu Mubai slightly moved his body, he actually discovered that his injuries had already healed quite a bit. At the bottom of his heart, he immediately felt extremely grateful.

Chu Xiaotian let out a light cough, casually poured three cups of tea, and sighed: "Chu Mubai, Chu Shaoqi's matter... "Sigh, I hope you can understand."

Chu Mubai remained silent and slowly nodded his head, "I understand."

Chu Mubai who had experienced his previous life knew very well how difficult the situation Chu Xiaotian was in. Outside, there were a few large families eyeing him covetously, and there were also some unsettled forces waiting to make a move. At this critical juncture, it was really not appropriate to escalate the conflict with one of the five great elders.

Chu Xiaotian thought about the big picture and felt that there was nothing he could do.

Chu Xiaotian took out a gift box from the side.

Opening his mouth, a blood-colored ginseng laid quietly within. Chu Xiaotian pushed it forward a little, and said: "Fourth Elder made an apology on behalf of his grandson. This is a gift from him. That's all I can do. "

Chu Mubai looked carefully, it was actually 'Zhu Xue Ginseng'.

The Fourth Elder was rich indeed. A Red Blood Ginseng could be sold for at least one hundred thousand gold coins in the Immortal Cave. The Fourth Elder used this as an apology; this was not a small feat.

Chu Mubai shook his head and pushed it back with his hand: "Grandfather, my body is weak, I cannot use this, why don't you take it to recuperate. Oh right, I have something to ask of you."

Chu Mubai rubbed his hands together, "When you picked me up back then... Have you seen a jade pendant? "

When Chu Mubai said these words, he clearly saw Chu Xiaotian's stunned expression. The hand which held the teacup actually froze in midair.

Chu Xiaotian looked a little embarrassed, and laughed: "You, you … Who did you hear that from? "

There really was one!

Hearing this, Chu Mubai's eyes lit up. Chu Mubai impatiently walked up, and even his breathing became hurried, as he urgently asked: "Grandfather, where is that jade pendant? Can you show it to me? "

"…"

Chu Xiaotian's expression was extremely awkward, he stuttered for half a minute, then clenched his fists, and said unclearly: "Jade, jade … "It's not with me."

"Huh?"

Chu Mubai was perplexed, but suddenly asked in a daze: "What do you mean?"

This was the first time Chu Mubai had ever seen such an awkward situation. His sharp senses detected something was wrong with Chu Xiaotian, and his face darkened: "Grandfather, you wouldn't have taken it to exchange for wine, right?"

"How is this possible!"

Chu Xiaotian denied with a wave of his hand. He gave an embarrassed smile, but his voice continued to die down, and in the end, it almost completely disappeared. "I'm just giving it to someone else, giving it to someone else …"

"..." "They've become betrothal gifts."

"What!?"

Chu Mubai's eyes were wide opened, like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, he almost jumped up from the sickbed. "How did you give it to someone else?! Ah pooh, that's not right, what, engagement! "

Engagement!

I already have a fiancee?

What a joke, how come I don't know about it?

Chu Mubai was dumbstruck. Even in his previous life, Chu Mubai had never heard of anyone having a fiancee, why did a fiancee appear out of nowhere in this life? Furthermore, no one had obtained my approval for this matter.

Hearing "Engagement"

With these two words, Chu Xier, who was standing beside Chu Mubai, froze for some inexplicable reason.

Chu Xiaotian's expression was extremely awkward as he replied, "About this, about this, the background of the other party is just too great, I simply cannot reject him, so I didn't ask for your permission …"

Chu Mubai was dumbfounded. It was as if the air had been sucked out of his mind, as he subconsciously muttered: "... With which family? "

At the mention of this, the awkward expression on Chu Xiaotian's face grew even more pronounced.

"Ji … Ji Clan …"

"Ji Clan?" Which Ji Clan? Calculate... "Pfft!"

Chu Mubai's hands trembled, and he almost spat out a mouthful of tea on the spot. His eyeballs almost fell from shock, and exploded on the spot. "That Rong Prefecture Ji Clan?!"

Chu Xiaotian nodded his head in embarrassment.

Chu Mubai was completely flabbergasted … The Rong Prefecture Ji Clan, how could this be possible!

The Ji Family, one of the families of the Nine Prefectures, the Rong Prefecture's Ji Family, the absolute ruler of the The War God Continent, the actual ruler of the Rong Province. Their background was extremely terrifying and no one dared to offend the The War God Continent, even if it was Chu Mubai's previous life.

The Ji Clan's power was strong. They only needed to send out the lowest level deacon, and that was enough to completely wipe out the entire Chu Clan!

It was rumored that the Ji Clan even had an old ancestor who came to the 'sage realm' as his guardian!

Chu Mubai's mind was a mess, as though it was not enough for him to use. Chu Mubai was nameless and had no life, he was even famous as the "Innate Vein Cutting". No matter how one looked at it, the Ji Family had no reason to marry the Chu Family.

But what was going on?

Chu Mubai urged Chu Xiaotian repeatedly, but Chu Xiaotian had no choice but to explain everything to him in an extremely embarrassed manner.

Three years ago, the Ji Clan sent an envoy to the Chu Clan to keep a low profile and directly request for a marriage. Since the Chu Clan was weak, how could they refuse?

Although Chu Xiaotian was extremely confused about this, the process of the engagement was still quickly carried out in a low-key manner.

When both parties exchanged tokens, Chu Xiaotian searched through the Chu Family and didn't find any matching treasures. Only one of Chu Mubai's pendants was considered priceless, so he had no choice but to use it as his keepsake for the time being.

Chu Xiaotian said helplessly: "The other party's keepsake is just a 'painting of a phoenix hairpin', it's way too precious, only your jade pendant was carved using the 'Purple Illuminating Stone', so it was exchanged out …"

Violet Glare Stone!

Chu Mubai was startled, and could not help but be shocked.

The 'Purple Glare Stone' was an extremely famous, top-grade jade of the 'The War God Continent'. It was priceless, hard to find even if one had ten thousand gold coins, and was as famous as the 'Extreme Water Azure Sky' and the 'Emperor Ghost Jade'. It was a true rare treasure.

Even in his previous life, Chu Mubai had only heard of the existence of the 'Purple Illuminating Stone' and had never seen it with his own eyes.

Chu Mubai never thought that this jade pendant would be so precious!

Chu Mubai swallowed a mouthful of saliva with difficulty and said with an expression of disbelief: "But … How could the Ji Family marry me? There is absolutely no reason for that. "

Chu Xiaotian had a bitter smile on his face. How could he have guessed the thoughts of the family of the Nine Prefectures.

Chu Mubai muttered. Suddenly, a light flashed through his mind, and like an explosion of thunder, Chu Mubai woke up with a start. Ji Xiaochu?! "

Chu Xiaotian was startled, and asked in astonishment: "How did you know?"

"What?" It's really her?! "

Chu Mubai was dumbstruck. He finally knew why the Ji Clan would come knocking on his door. It was because of this, it was her. These were the three memories, their relationship of three generations. When the bell-like voices resounded in his mind, Chu Mubai was able to recover his memories once more.

Somehow, he had always felt that there was an inseparable connection between him and the memories that seemed to have nothing to do with him.

These three parts of his memories seemed to have appeared on his body. At least, all of them were called Chu Mubai.

Could it be … Was there really such a thing as reincarnation?

Chu Mubai muttered to himself.

At that moment, a series of thick voices echoed in the air.

"Boy, this is what happened to me. This is the only memory in my soul that is sealed. Why did I come here? I have already forgotten the reason why I appeared here. However, I know that I am waiting for you."
