Chapter 106: The Master of the Shen Family Appears, Shen Yihan Gets Caught!
That originally quiet and breathless Cheng Zihuan, who was lying on the ground, suddenly opened her eyes. A terrible red light burst out of her eyes and directly entered into Shen family's master's eyes.
"Ah——" A shrill cry of despair echoed, and the master of the Shen family seemed to have gone mad, covering his eyes with both hands, his entire demeanor bursting to the extreme in that instant.
And just at this moment, Cat Uncle's front paw also heavily slapped on his chest.
With one blow, Cat Uncle didn't linger in battle. With his keen eyesight, he naturally saw that the Shen family's master was not quite right. This wasn't his true body, probably just a clone. Now that he and Cheng Zihang had joined forces to destroy his clone, it was likely that his true body would arrive soon. If even a clone was so powerful, what about his true body?
The cat uncle didn't hesitate, dived down, stretched out his paws and directly scooped up Cheng Zihang, threw him on his back, and then displayed the fastest speed to escape.
The palm of the cat uncle just now was incredibly powerful, and with a slap, the master of the Shen family, who had condensed his real strength into an illusory body, was actually slapped into nothingness.
If it were in his heyday, Cat Uncle's sneak attack would not have been easy to accomplish, but under the circumstances where he was unexpectedly injured by Cheng Ziheng and suddenly launched a surprise attack, he was able to successfully destroy Shen Jia's patriarch's avatar.
The true body of the Shen family's master, far away in the continent of Canglan, also felt a surge of blood and energy in his chest at the moment when he sensed that his avatar was destroyed, spitting out a mouthful of fresh blood.
The scene that had just happened was quickly replayed in his mind through images.
"Damn it!" With a loud curse, the master of the Shen family slammed his hand on the table, and the table in front of him turned into a pile of wood chips under his palm.
The enemy's situation was beyond Shen Jia's expectation. Originally, he thought that sending a clone to capture Shen Yihan would be easy, but unexpectedly, an ancient divine beast appeared halfway.
However, that divine beast shouldn't be its true form, but rather a borrowed power from an unknown method, otherwise it wouldn't have been so weak.
It seems that he needs to take care of this matter personally.
He let out a sigh and finally stood up. In the blink of an eye, he had already walked out of the Shen family's mansion.
Cheng Zihan lay weakly on Cat Uncle's body, the red light just now was an accident, it should be something left in her body by her mother to save her life, when she self-destructed that time, she couldn't even force this thing out, it seems that this time is really a matter of life and death.
Uncle Cat carried Cheng Zihang on his back and flew towards the capital at the fastest speed. As long as the master of the Shen family didn't chase after them, everything would be fine.
Arrived in the capital city, at least with the protection of the old demon from the Han family, should be able to survive.
Moreover, it seems that the four major families in the capital city have some old grudges with people from the Canglan Continent, so if the Shen family master arrives in the capital, they will likely take action.
But now Yan's old monster has been crippled by Cheng Zihan, and Liangzi is bound to owe him a favor, I'm just afraid he won't show up to help.
But now he can't afford to think about that anymore, and can only desperately push forward.
Suddenly, Cat Uncle slammed on the brakes because a super beautiful woman appeared in front of him, and this beauty looked very similar to Cheng Zihan!
"Who are you?" Although the woman in front of him looked 70-80% similar to Cheng Zihan, Cat Uncle didn't let his guard down. Who knew if she was wearing a human skin mask to deceive them?!
The vigilant cat uncle secretly retreated a step while staring at the beauty in front of him.
No matter who the other person is, as long as they dare to harm Cheng Zihang, he will definitely kill them even if it means risking his own life!
"Don't worry, I'm here to save her. If I don't save her soon, she won't last much longer." Shen Yihan glanced at Cat Uncle, and with her abilities, she naturally saw through Cat Uncle's true form in one glance - a human soul inhabiting the body of a black cat. It seemed he had some feelings for his own daughter, although it was quite tragic that he had become a black cat. But as long as he was genuinely treating his own daughter well, who cares if he's human or cat?!
Shen Yihan was like a mother-in-law who had just seen her son-in-law, the more she looked at Qin Kexiu, the more satisfied she became.
In her eyes, Qin Kexiu was a tall and handsome guy, not a cat.
The cat uncle still had a vigilant face and obviously didn't believe Shen Yihan's words.
Shen Yihan didn't care about him and walked straight towards him.
The cat uncle still wanted to retreat, but found that he was stuck to the ground and couldn't move.
His eyes almost spewed fire, staring viciously at the beauty in front of him, gritting his teeth and cursing, "You wicked woman, what do you want to do?"
Shen Yihan looked at him with some speechlessness, couldn't he see that her daughter was as beautiful as a flower just like her? How could he not tell they were related by blood? This kid was good, but his brain was a bit dull, not clever enough.
Will a stupid man with bad genes give birth to a foolish child in the future?
Shen Yihan began to reconsider Cheng Zihans choice of partner again.
Just as she was thinking about these things in her heart, someone had already arrived in front of Cat Uncle and took Cheng Zihang away.
"I'll take her away first, you follow later. Don't worry, I won't hurt her." Shen Yihan turned back to glance at Cat Uncle indifferently, then directly carried Cheng Zihuan away.
The blow that the Shen family master had just made, although it looked like nothing, actually left a strand of yuan force in Cheng Zihan's body. That strand of yuan force, as long as the Shen family master appeared within a hundred miles of Cheng Zihan, could control that power and make it destroy the five organs and six viscera inside Cheng Zihan's body. What's more, he might even destroy Cheng Zihan's meridians, turning her into a useless person!
According to Shen Yihan's understanding of the old man in the Shen family, this son of a bitch will absolutely do such beastly things, even if Cheng Zihuan is his own grandson, he won't have any mercy.
That ruthless, cruel and bloodthirsty scum, who can even kill his own wife and children with a single blow, just to make him realize the realm of Tianjie Dajuan, what can't such a person do?
The decline of the Shen family is also reasonable. Unpopular, heaven can't bear it!
She held the lightly floating Cheng Zihan in her arms, and Shen Yihan quickly moved forward. The surrounding area was all desolate mountains, which perfectly matched her mood. She plunged into the mountains, casually found a cave to enter, then took out a night pearl from Cheng Zihan's body and embedded it on the stone wall. Soft light instantly filled the dark cave.
Shen Yihan brought over some stones to block the entrance of the cave, and set up a few simple arrays around it. These arrays didn't have any defensive capabilities, nor did they possess any attacking properties; they could only emit an ear-piercing sound when someone broke in to alert them.
These formations were unintentionally learned by Shen Yihan in middle school. The original purpose of her family sending her here was to steal an ancient book that a master had taken away, which recorded the formation method that could open up the path to extreme bliss. As long as she found that book, she could understand and break through the Tianjie Dahuang method, and thus ascend.
At first, for this ancient book, the master of the Shen family did not hesitate to send out the most brilliant pearl of the Shen family, but unexpectedly ended up losing both his wife and soldiers, ending up in this miserable state.
These are all old stories, never mind.
Shen Yihan took a look around and found that someone had probably lived here before, and there was even a simple stone bed. Although it was very crude, it was better than nothing. She picked up Cheng Zihang again and carefully placed him on the stone bed.
Looking at her pale-faced baby daughter, Shen Yihan felt a pang of heartache.
She carefully undid Cheng Zihan's clothes, and because of being flogged by Shen Han, there were several whip marks on his body. The whip marks were bloody and looked very frightening, especially the one on his chest, which could vaguely see the white bones inside the flesh.
Seeing these scars on Cheng Zihan's body, Shen Yihan almost gnashed her silver teeth.
The damned old scoundrel, she would never let him go if she had the chance!
Shen Yihan had already reached the middle stage of the Earth Realm when she first came here, but due to the scarcity of yuan force in this place, her strength did not increase much. However, she unexpectedly gained insight into some things that could not be understood on the Canglan Continent, which was her state of mind.
Everyone on the mainland of Canglan attaches importance to the cultivation of heterodox abilities and never cultivates their mind and nature. However, people from the Great China attach importance to cultivating their mind and nature, emphasizing a single word: "quiet". She has been here for many years, and her only gain is this. No matter what danger she encounters or how powerful an enemy she faces, she can remain fearless and unafraid, with no fear in her heart. Fear will not arise naturally, and she calmly faces all enemies and crises without being afraid. With less timidity, she fights without hesitation, so she can exert her strength to the extreme.
Looking at Cheng Zihan's wounds, fortunately, these were all superficial injuries and did not affect the internal organs, so there would be no great danger to his life.
She carefully took out some medicinal pills from her spatial ring, crushed them one by one, and then sprinkled them directly onto Cheng Zihans wound.
These high-grade elixirs, which are not commonly seen on the mainland of Canglan, were actually wasted by Shen Yihan. If the master of the Shen family knew that she was so wasteful and used up the elixirs he had collected with great difficulty for half his life, he would probably be so angry that he would die and come back to life again.
These are indeed high-grade elixirs, and their effects are fierce. As soon as the medicine powder was sprinkled on, the wounds on Cheng Zihan's body recovered at a visible speed.
After simply treating the skin trauma on Cheng Zihans body, Shen Yihan finally took off all her clothes and looked at the bright red cherry blossom on her white and smooth back. Shen Yihans eyebrows furrowed again.
This is not a good phenomenon, born in the Shen family, became a woman of the Shen family, none of them have a good ending.
If Shen Yihan returned to the Shen family in the future, her fate would not be much better.
As usual, women in Shen's family had only one role, which was to serve as a tool for giving birth.
Although Shen Yihan's strength is extraordinary, it is precisely because of this that the master of the Shen family needs her to serve as a tool for having children, giving birth to many excellent children for the Shen family, continuing the Shen family's legacy and ensuring its prosperity.
When Shen Yihan came here at that time, she was only sixteen years old. She knew that no matter whether she could complete this task or not, after returning to her family, she would have completed the coming-of-age ceremony at eighteen and by the age of twenty, the master of the Shen family would arrange a man for her.
These men of all shapes and sizes have one thing in common, which is that they are very talented, basically all of them having a natural talent above the earthly level, only then do they qualify to be Shen Yihan's man.
She was originally trying to escape this responsibility and actively requested to come here, wanting to use this to escape her own fate.
Never in a million years did I think that my own daughter would also bear the same fate as me.
The birthmark of Shen family women is different for everyone, although they are all plum blossoms, the shape and color of the plum blossoms are also different due to individual differences in talent and potential.
It's just like Shen Yihan, she was born with extraordinary talent and is even a mid-tier Heaven's Chosen, which is a rare genius that appears only once in a hundred years. However, the plum blossom on her back is still budding and its color is a deep pink, not overly dazzling.
It's just that the plum blossom on Cheng Zihan's back is now in full bloom, and its color is bright red, as if it were bleeding. This is a symbol that only the highest-level ability holders can possess, and has already surpassed the Heavenly Rank!
On the mainland of Canglan, there are only four levels of ability: Tiandi Xuanhuang. However, what lies above Tianjie is unknown.
But if the Shen family master knew that Cheng Zihan actually possessed such a heavenly gift of bloodline, it's likely that he would directly bind her back and make her a child-bearing tool!
No way! Absolutely can't let this happen!
This time Shen's family sent someone over, it was nothing more than wanting to take her back. In order to keep his precious daughter safe, it seemed that he had no choice but to sacrifice himself.
Xiaohan, I'm sorry. Mom can't be by your side, and we've already missed 13 years together. It's likely that in this lifetime, we'll never meet again. You must live a good life from now on! Take my determination with you!
Shen Yihan bowed her head and gently kissed her daughter's forehead, with a tear slowly rolling down from the corner of her eye.
The aura of Cat Uncle appeared in the empty space, Shen Yihuan coldly stared at the direction of the cave entrance, and directly used yuan force to transmit his voice out, "If you don't want anything to happen to Xiaohuan, you'd better behave yourself outside and not come in! Also, I need at least seven hours to heal her wounds. Remember, during this time, absolutely no one can disturb us, otherwise, she may be in danger of losing her life!"
Uncle Cat was just about to rush in when he suddenly heard Shen Yihan's transmission and immediately didn't dare move.
Now he also felt that Shen Yihan had no malice, if she wanted to kill Cheng Zihuan, there were many opportunities, no need to do so many things, her strength was very strong, although not as good as the strength of the Shen family master, but on her body, there were more sinister places than the Shen family master, just like the space lock just now, the Shen family master would not be able to do it, but Shen Yihan could.
Since it involved Cheng Zihans safety, he naturally didnt dare to be reckless, so he lay down at the door and kept watch.
At this time, he had turned back into a small cat, and had just overdrawn a lot of physical strength, now feeling somewhat tired.
He lazily lay at the entrance, occasionally raising his head to glance at the cave entrance sealed by a huge stone, vigilantly paying attention to the surrounding movements.
After Shen Yihan wiped away her tears, she also understood that things were urgent now and couldn't afford to be too sad. She formed a series of intricate hand seals with both hands, her fingers moving quickly, bringing up white fluorescent lights in the air. With her movements, strands of heavenly spiritual energy slowly gathered and converged, finally collecting in her palm.
Her lips moved in and out, as if she was reciting some sort of incantation, but the language was unfamiliar and difficult to understand, sounding like some ancient spell. As she spoke those strange words, a pale pink glow appeared around her, enveloping her entire body.
Shen Yihan slowly closed her eyes, her hands flat and pushed out, stuck to the back of Cheng Zihans, a steady stream of yuan force continuously transmitted from her body into Cheng Zihans, and with the transmission of yuan force, some complex and strange information also poured into Cheng Zihans mind.
Cheng Zihan, who was in a coma, frowned and subconsciously resisted as her brain throbbed with pain due to the sudden influx of massive amounts of information.
In the sea of knowledge, the blood dragon suddenly opened its bloody mouth and let out a sharp dragon's wail. The information that Shen Yihan had input into Cheng Zihans brain was shattered inch by inch in that wailing sound.
"Hmph." Shen Yihan spat out a mouthful of blood, it seemed that she couldn't take advantage of Cheng Zihans' unconscious state to forcefully input some memories into her mind, making her remember. In that case, there was no choice but to think of another way.
Shen Yihan took a deep breath, refocused her energy, and once again placed the palms of her hands on Cheng Zihans back, as a steady stream of yuanqi flowed into his body.
Shen Yihan's consciousness also accompanied the influx of yuan force into Cheng Zihans body, and she carefully observed every inch of Cheng Zihans skeleton and meridians. To her surprise, she found that Cheng Zihans meridians were much stronger and wider than those of ordinary people. This meant that even if she contained energy beyond her current physical capacity, there would be no problem. Moreover, her skeleton was much more solid than that of ordinary people, and a faint layer of fluorescence could be seen flowing on its surface.
If Shen Yihan wasn't mistaken, that should be Jade Bone. Unexpectedly, Cheng Zihans actually had such a skeleton, it's simply a natural-born martial arts genius!
If she were born in the mainland of Canglan, she would absolutely be a shocking genius!
As Shen Yihan's consciousness continued to advance slowly in Cheng Zihans body, it finally reached the chest and heart position, where it discovered the primordial force left behind by the master of the Shen family.
That was a pure white Yuan force, containing the power of Shen family's master Yicheng. If Cheng Zihuan had the ability to absorb and transform this Yuan force into her own, it would undoubtedly be a great help to her cultivation. Unfortunately, this Yuan force was controlled by Master Shen, and Cheng Zihuan simply had no way to absorb or utilize it, so she could only forcibly expel it.
It's okay, it's just a clone left by the master of the Shen family. If it were the real thing, even Shen Yihan wouldn't have a chance.
She cautiously approached the yuan force, and the yuan force seemed to have its own perception, sensing the arrival of danger. It was at the moment when Shen Yihan's consciousness approached that it suddenly rushed towards Cheng Zihans heart.
Shen Yihan was shocked by this, if this primordial energy entered into Cheng Zihans heart, it would undoubtedly cause her to die instantly!
Seeing Yuan Li's actions, Shen Yihan finally understood that the master of the Shen family had arrived on this continent! And it's likely to arrive here soon!
At the moment when the primordial force suddenly rushed towards Cheng Zihans heart, Shen Yihan did not hesitate and controlled all his scattered primordial forces in Cheng Zihans body to gather here.
Fortunately, Cheng Zihan's meridians were strong and resilient. Otherwise, under Shen Yihuan's reckless charge, it is estimated that she would not die but suffer a serious injury.
Although all the yuan forces came quickly, they still couldn't compare to that one's speed. Seeing that the yuan force was about to rush into Cheng Zihans heart, Shen Yihan panicked and directly blurted out: "You stop for me!"
A magical scene unfolded!
Just as Shen Yihan shouted out that sentence, the primordial force actually listened and stopped at its original position, not continuing forward!
At this moment, Shen Yihan hastily manipulated her yuan force to surround that one yuan force, and then carefully controlled it, preparing to guide it out of Cheng Zihans body.
That strand of yuan force seemed to have sensed Shen Yihan's intentions and began to struggle restlessly. The location was too close to Cheng Zihans heart, so Shen Yihan didn't dare to be careless. All the yuan forces were densely woven into a yuan force net, tightly wrapping that strand of yuan force inside. Then, with her mind guiding it, she slowly pulled it away from Cheng Zihans heart bit by bit. However, fearing that her actions would be too hasty and provoke that strand of yuan force to desperately resist, Shen Yihan didn't dare to rush. She could only slowly guide it step by step. Meanwhile, on the outside, Shen Yihan's forehead was already covered in cold sweat, and her clothes were soaked with sweat, clinging tightly to her curvaceous body.
Cheng Zihan's eyes were tightly closed, her eyebrows slightly furrowed, but she didn't feel any discomfort. Shen Yihan's movements were very gentle, as if afraid of hurting her in the slightest.
Time passed minute by minute and second by second. It was estimated that he had already sensed Shen Yihuan's intentions, and the fluctuations of Yuanli became more intense.
Shen Yihan once again infused a wisp of divine consciousness, and the two strands together manipulated the yuan force net, slowly moving it away from Cheng Zihans vital organs.
The cat lying lazily on the ground outside the cave suddenly stood up, staring straight at a position in the northwest direction, with all its hair standing upright.
A figure emerged from afar and approached, with each step forward, his body would advance about a hundred meters or so, and in the blink of an eye, he had already arrived in front of Cat Uncle.
This person is none other than Shen Qing Shu, the master of the Shen family.
He wore a dark blue changshan, slender in build, with wrinkled skin clinging to his bones, looking somewhat like an alien. His eyes were unusually large, but from the contours of his facial features, it was not difficult to see that he had also been a handsome young man in his youth.
He had his hands clasped behind his back, his body floating in mid-air, and he was staring coldly at the black cat in front of him. Suddenly, he let out a sneer, "So you've only borrowed the Space Beast's power, but you won't be able to use its strength for a long time now, will you? I'd like to see what other tricks you have up your sleeve to resist me! Get lost, immediately!"
Shen Qing looked carefully at the all-black cat in front of him, and suddenly let out a cold laugh. The terrifying sound wave brought up a terrible energy storm that heavily struck the cat's body.
But that small body didn't move an inch, and stiffly withstood this blow.
Fortunately, that blow was only used by Shen Qing Shu to intimidate Cat Uncle and test his strength, so he didn't use all his might. So although it caused some injuries to Cat Uncle, it did not harm his life.
The corner of Cat Uncle's mouth fell a thread of blood, he didn't care about it, but stepped out one step with elegant steps, staring firmly at Shen Qing Shu in front of him.
Even if he dies! He absolutely cannot let anyone harm Cheng Zihan in the slightest!
The Shen Qingxue in front of him was very strong, far stronger than the previous clone by tens of times! Even if he could still borrow the power of the Space Beast, unless the Space Beast itself descended, otherwise it would not be his opponent!
Shen Yihan said that the seven hours were a critical moment, and absolutely no one could be allowed to disturb her and Cheng Zihang, otherwise Cheng Zihang would be in danger of losing his life!
How could he possibly bear to see Cheng Zihuan suffer even a little harm and danger?
So even if I die here today, I must drag out the time and not let Shen Qing Shu enter the mountain cave!
It seems like there's going to be a fierce battle today!
The cat uncle stood proudly in front of the cave entrance, about fifty meters away, raised his head and looked at Shen Qing Shu with those emerald green eyes, "Want to kill me? It's not that easy! And who told you I couldn't continue to borrow the power of the space beast?"
The cat uncle spoke, and his body began to swell at a terrifying speed, quickly transforming into the shape of that space beast. His entire body was black and shiny, with a pair of blood-red eyes that seemed to look down on all living things. On his forehead, a mysterious symbol could be faintly seen, emitting a dark, black glow. Because his body was so black, it was easy to overlook him.
Shen Qingxue looked at the spatial beast in front of her and was also startled. This spatial beast was much stronger than the one she had encountered when she split up!
It seems this cat uncle also has some strength in reserve!
Shen Qing didn't know that Cat Uncle's current behavior was made with a determination to die. He had made a blood oath with the Space Beast, allowing him to borrow its power to the greatest extent. However, after this, his body - now this black cat's body - would be completely occupied by the Space Beast, and Qin Ke Xiu's soul would fall into eternal slumber until someone could enter the Space Beast's spiritual domain and awaken him.
In order to protect Tong Zihan, he really went all out!
"You ignorant humans, dare to offend the divine power of my sacred beast!" The Space Beast's voice was like thunder, rumbling and booming out, causing Shen Qingxue's eardrums to ache.
Unfortunately, the Space Beast is not in its heyday now. He was injured many years ago and has not fully recovered yet. Moreover, his current physical strength is too weak to withstand all his energy. In order not to let that black cat's body explode and die, he can only control his own strength.
The current Space Beast can probably only exert half of its strength, but it's enough to delay Shen Qingyu.
Shen Qingxue, after all, was a seasoned old demon, how could he be intimidated by this pressure? After a brief daze, he smiled faintly, "Space Beast, hahaha, I can see such a divine beast in my lifetime, it's my good fortune! As long as I defeat you and contract with you, you'll become my pet from now on! Having a divine beast as a pet is the ultimate glory!"
Shen Qing's eyes gleamed with a hint of greed as he spoke.
The Space Beast just looked at him coldly, snorted disdainfully, and a black shadow flashed by, leaving behind a black afterimage in the air. The Space Beast had already disappeared from its original location.
"A trivial skill!" Shen Qingxue sneered with a faint smile, and her figure flashed away, disappearing from the spot.
That space suddenly became quiet, and the Space Beast and Shen Qingxu's figures were nowhere to be seen.
In a closed and distorted space, a beast and a person were engaged in an intense battle.
Although the Space Beast was arrogant, it also knew that Shen Qingxue's strength was formidable and naturally did not dare to be careless. Its body was burning with a terrifying white flame, which burned everything around it, scorching the surrounding space clean.
Shen Qing's book cautiously kept the flames burning outside the spatial beast's body, not daring to get too close, and only attacked from the periphery, but ultimately couldn't hurt the spatial beast too much.
The two people were at a stalemate, getting farther and farther away, and gradually they strayed far from the desolate mountain where Cheng Zihang and others were.
Shen Qingxue now understood the Space Beast's intention. Its goal was not to fight him, but to lure him away.
But even if he understood, there was nothing he could do, for now he was trapped in the space woven by the spatial beast and couldn't leave at all.
The energy of the Space Beast can only last for a limited time, and it's estimated that it won't be able to hold on for much longer. So he steeled himself and engaged in a war of attrition with it.
Time passed minute by minute, and Shen Yihuan in the cave was still tensely pulling out that strand of yuan energy from Cheng Zihan's body. Since Shen Qingchu was now fully engaged in battling the spatial beast, he had no time to attend to that strand of yuan energy, so Shen Yihuan suddenly felt a great deal of relief. That strand of yuan energy had slowly been pulled out of Cheng Zihan's body.
Cheng Zihan still had her eyes tightly closed, but her long and curled eyelashes trembled slightly from time to time. Her originally pale face gradually regained its rosy complexion, and it was estimated that she would wake up soon.
Shen Yihan also let out a long sigh of relief, but she didn't dare to be careless at all. If there was any problem, everything they had done before would be in vain.
Outside, the battle between Space Beast and Shen Qingxue had also entered a white-hot stage. The Space Beast's power was clearly beginning to overdraw, as it wasn't easy for him to maintain his true form in the outside world for an extended period of time, due to the limitations of the cat's body.
Looking at the time, it was almost over, and the Space Beast didn't want to fight anymore. With a loud roar, it tore through space and fled in a hurry.
In the cave, Shen Yihan finally completed the last step and forced out the yuan force from Cheng Zihans body.
At the moment when the yuan force emerged, Shen Yihan let out a long sigh and her body went limp, falling onto the stone bed, starting to breathe heavily.
After resting for a while, she carefully got up and helped Cheng Zihuan put on her clothes. She also left a temporary seal on her body to seal the plum blossom mark on her back, so even if Shen Qing saw her, she wouldn't know that she was the girl she gave birth to all those years ago.
On Cheng Zihan's closed eyelids, Shen Yihan kissed her lightly, then slowly stood up, and when she reached the entrance of the cave, she couldn't help but turn back to look at Cheng Zihan one more time. This farewell would probably be forever, and who knows if they'll have another chance to meet again in this lifetime.
Shen Yihan's faint smile, always calm and peaceful, without sorrow or joy, unexpectedly also felt fear.
The stone blocking the entrance was moved away, and Shen Yihan walked out in big strides.
Just then Shen Qing Shu returned, looking at Shen Yi Huan who came out of the cave, frowned and coldly looked at her, "Hmph, unfilial daughter!"
Shen Yihan just smiled faintly, raised her head and looked at Shen Qing Shu with a calm expression. "I'm just fighting for my own rights, is that wrong? You know better than anyone how our mother died, Shen Qing Shu. From the moment she died, you stopped being my father. And in your eyes, I'm nothing but a good breeding vessel. Let's not talk about filial piety or not. I hate to say it, but I'd rather kill you myself! I've been hiding for so many years, I know I won't be able to escape. I'm willing to go back with you."
Shen Qing didn't expect Shen Yihan to be so easy-going, and even wanted to take the initiative to follow him. He looked at Shen Yihan, furrowed his brow, thought for a moment, and then knew that she was doing this to protect her bastard!
Forget it, the top priority now is to take Shen Yihan back to participate in the upcoming family competition, can't be delayed. As for that little scum, just spare her dog life for now, after the competition is over, he will personally come to end her life!
He reached out and grabbed Shen Yihan, holding her in his hand, afraid she would escape halfway, and also sealed off her cultivation, only then did he quickly leave with her.
The Space Beast has been watching from the side, Qin Kexiu's protection is for Cheng Zihan's safety, and does not include this woman. Now he can finally occupy the body of this black cat alone and slowly recover his injuries. It is estimated that it won't take much time before he will gradually regain his strength.
The yuan force in this space is really too little, which restricts his power and also makes him unable to heal his wounds better.
The Space Beast didn't come out from behind a big tree until Shen Qing had left, he took a glance at the dark cave entrance before elegantly walking past.
Cheng Zihan had not yet awakened, the Space Beast lowered its head to gaze at this girl with an extraordinary aura between her eyebrows, and smiled lightly before stretching out its claws to pick up Cheng Zihan and toss her onto its back. A white glow emerged from its body, tightly binding Cheng Zihan to its back.
Qin Kexiu's soul had truly fallen into a deep coma this time, and even the Space Beast couldn't say for sure if he would ever wake up again.
As agreed, Space Beast took Cheng Zihang and rushed straight to the capital. At his speed, it would only take a blink of an eye to reach the capital.
When they arrived in Beijing, according to Qin Kesu's memory of the direction, the space beast successfully found the location of Han's house.
Just as he entered the capital, the four old monsters of the four major families all sensed it at the same time and came out of their closed stone rooms.
Han Yuqian stood in the half-empty Han family mansion, looking at the black creature that resembled a cat, and the girl on its back. Han Yi had already returned and told him about Cheng Zihuan's affairs. He didn't expect Han Jingchen to have left behind a daughter, which was somewhat unexpected for him.
Now he sees the Space Beast, and also sees Cheng Zihansunconsciousness, a thread of bloodline sensation awakens at this moment, he bends down, standing still in front of the Space Beast.
The Space Beast lifted its head, coldly staring at the old man in front of it, its nose slightly disdainfully puffing out hot air. "I'm here to find Han Yi."
"Please follow me." Han Yuqian glanced at the Space Beast with a hint of indifference and led him into the house.
The other three old monsters of the big families could only watch as the Space Beast followed Han Yuqian, all of them were clenching their fists and stomping their chests, wishing they could rush over and snatch the Space Beast away.
Although I don't know what kind of creature it is, but at a glance, I can tell it's no ordinary thing!
The space beast had just entered the Han family and immediately restored its black cat appearance. Cheng Zihan, who was lying on his body all the time, also fell to the ground because he lost his support. The small black cat was pressed under Cheng Zihan's body like this.
Han Yuqian took one look at the situation and immediately ordered someone to come over and carry Cheng Zihang away to rest in a guest room. At this time, Hei Mao also slowly got up from the ground, although he had just made such a fool of himself, but he still followed elegantly behind the people who were carrying Cheng Zihang away.
Han Yi rushed over as soon as he heard the news, and upon seeing Cheng Zihuan's unconscious state, he glanced at the black cat lying comfortably beside him with its eyes narrowed in enjoyment. Although Han Yi found it somewhat strange, he didn't say anything and simply went to pull up Cheng Zihuan's hand.
"Don't worry, she won't die. Her mother has already helped her recover from her injuries." The Space Beast glanced at Han Yi with a cold and arrogant tone.
Can this black cat talk?
Han Yi was taken aback at first, but soon came to his senses. It made sense too - how many ordinary objects could be around Cheng Zihans? A talking cat wasn't a big deal either.
"Has she seen her mother?" Han Yi was somewhat shocked by the spatial beast's words.
Wasn't Shen Yihan taken away by the Shen family thirteen years ago?
He had seen Shen Yi and the others before, thinking they were just here to deal with Cheng Zihuan, but he didn't expect that Shen Yihan was also here. Since she helped save Cheng Zihuan, why didn't she follow them back to the Han house?
Han Yi's heart was full of incomprehension.
"No. His mother has already been taken back by the master of the Shen family." The Space Beast glanced at Han Yi faintly, and the worry in his eyes, as well as that gaze, made him feel somewhat uncomfortable.
It's also been five years since I've been with Cheng Zihan, although Qin Kexiu has always been in charge. However, he seems to have a strange and inexplicable feeling towards Cheng Zihan, as if he's been influenced by Qin Kexiu.
He can't bear to see other men looking at Cheng Zihang with such a covetous gaze.
The space beast has always been alone and doesn't have a deep understanding of the emotional relationships between men and women, so it naturally can't comprehend this jealous and resentful mentality.
"What?" But Han Yi was excited and stood up when he heard his casual words.
Shen Yihan was actually caught back by Shen Qing Shu!
At that time, Shen Yihan insisted on leaving the family, and it was clear that Shen Qing would hate this daughter deeply. The master of the Shen family is not an ordinary person, he is ruthless and can cruelly treat his own wife and children, how could he possibly treat Shen Yihan well?
If Shen Yihan followed him back, it could be said that she was on the verge of death!
What should I do? Should I tell Cheng Zihan about this matter? Should I tell Uncle Gong about it?
Han Yi looked at Cheng Zihuan with a worried face, if Cheng Zihuan knew that Shen Yihan had been taken away, she would probably go crazy.
With her current strength, going to the Canglan Continent would be nothing but seeking death!
No! Absolutely cannot let her take risks, this matter, still temporarily cover it up.
Han Yi took a deep breath, glanced at the Space Beast, and then spoke in a firm tone: "Can I trouble you to keep this matter temporarily confidential?"
Kong Shu didn't care, he also didn't want to see Cheng Ziheng take risks.
Here she was considered a master, but when she went to the Canglan Continent, she became a bottom dweller.
Her current abilities are all accidental, and many of them can't be used in combat, they just look good. If she really goes to the Canglan Continent and is discovered by the Shen family, isn't that just asking for death?
The two people quickly made a decision.
Cheng Zihan was trapped in a dream at this time.
The place in the dream, surrounded by clouds and mist, is like a fairyland. You can see cranes flying in the clouds, and many people come on foot, looking as if they are riding on clouds and fog.
A slender figure suddenly appeared in front of her, an old man who looked like he was in his seventies or eighties, wearing a dark blue long gown, standing tall and straight like a green pine tree.
In his ribs, there was also a woman, the woman wore ordinary hemp clothes, but it was hard to cover up that beautiful quality, at this time her eyes were tightly closed, and she didn't know whether she was asleep or something else.
When Cheng Zihan saw the woman, the woman also seemed to have a feeling and opened her eyes, looked at her for a moment, then revealed a relieved smile. "Xiao Huan, you've finally come."
Cheng Zihan's heart skipped a beat when she saw the woman's eyes, that gaze was so familiar!
The people around seemed to have not seen Cheng Zihan, including the thin old man, who was busy hurrying forward with the woman, but no matter how fast he went, Cheng Zihan could easily keep up, and her gaze remained fixed on the woman's face.
The woman had a 70-80% resemblance to her, and the red sand on her brow made her look even more enchanting and charming. At this moment, however, she was smiling at Cheng Zihan with a warm smile that radiated maternal light.
Cheng Zihan seemed to have had some premonition, but she couldn't be sure.
Very soon, the woman was taken into a magnificent and luxurious great hall. There were already several old men inside the great hall. When they saw the woman, their eyes lit up. Behind them stood several men with somewhat refined features. When they saw the woman, their gazes revealed a hint of lust.
The thin old man put the woman down and climbed up to the high platform in the great hall, then sat down. A majestic aura emanated from him, causing the people below to bow their heads one after another.
Shen Yihan's body was unable to move, so she could only lie weakly on the ground. As for Shen Qingxue's oppressive aura, she didn't have any feeling about it.
Cheng Zihan's current dreams are all real events that have occurred in the Canglan Continent.
The men standing behind the elders with a lustful glint in their eyes were the younger generation of the Shen family who had relatively better qualifications over the years. Shen Qing Shu planned to let them combine with Shen Yi Huan, and have her give birth to the best qualified descendants for the Shen family.
Cheng Zihan looked at everything in front of her, with a very strange feeling. The woman gave her a very familiar feeling, as if she was about to know the truth, but it seemed like something was suppressing her, not letting her think in that direction.
What they said, Cheng Zihan didn't understand a single sentence, but she could see the despair in the woman's eyes. At that moment, she felt a pang of heartache.
"Zi Han? Zi Han? Zi Han, wake up, hurry and wake up!" Looking at Cheng Zi Han's tightly closed eyes that were still streaming with tears, Han Yi felt a bit worried and reached out his hand to gently pat her cheek.
Cheng Zihan slowly opened her eyes, looking around in a daze. Her memories began to return bit by bit. Ah yes, she had been injured, beaten up by those people from the Shen family, and it was Qin Kexiu who had saved her in the end.
Qin Kexiu.
Cheng Zihan suddenly sat up, looked around the room, and finally her eyes fell on that lazy black cat.
Seeing him safe and sound, Cheng Zihang finally felt at ease.
She let out a sigh and lay down again, her body soft and weak, so tired, as if she had just been in a fight.
Cheng Zihan smiled wryly, this body is perfect in physique, but the physical strength still can't keep up, it seems that a very rigorous physical training is really needed to greatly improve the intensity of the body.
"Hey, we're back! Where's Uncle Han now? What did the Shen family do to him?" After catching her breath, Cheng Zihan suddenly remembered Han Jingchen and hastily grabbed Han Yi's hand, asking anxiously.
"Uncle is fine, the ancestors won't let anything happen to him. He's now headed to the Sahara Desert to find his great-grandfather. The ancestors said they're hiding there, it's just that we don't know exactly where." Han Yi patted Cheng Zihan's hand, signaling her to calm down first.
Cheng Zihan finally had no worries after learning that Han Jingchen was also safe and sound.
She didn't suspect the truth about her rescue and thought Qin Kexiu had saved her, so she was completely unaware of Shen Yihan's voluntary return with Shen Qingyu to save her.
"Let's take a break and head to the desert." The Space Beast glanced at Cheng Zihang with a hint of disdain, he had also noticed that Cheng Zihang's physical qualities were excellent in all aspects, but probably due to a lack of proper training, her actual strength was much weaker than it should be, which is why this minor injury could knock her out.
It seems that it is necessary to temper and polish well, and the desert is undoubtedly the best place to train people.
Han Yi had no objection to this, and the training base built in Sahara was almost completed. Since no construction was needed, life would be very hard when they went there, and the survival environment was really harsh. The first batch of mercenaries cultivated by their Mercenary Alliance had also arrived, and now they were just waiting for them to go over and start military training immediately.
Unfortunately, Han Jincheng is now alone in the Sahara Desert, and it's unknown which direction he's heading. The Sahara Desert is vast, covering an area larger than that of the United States. It's easy to get lost while traveling through it, let alone searching for a specific person in the endless dunes, which is basically an impossible task.
Han Jingchen was from a military academy, and at a young age, he became the commander of a military district. He was the youngest commander in the entire Huaxia region. However, due to the incident with Shen Yihan, he resigned from his military position and eventually became a national secret assassin.
If he were in charge of training those people, it would likely be much more effective.
At this time, in the vast expanse of yellow sand in the Sahara Desert, a building stood quietly like a crouching beast, and here was the base of the mercenary alliance established by Han Yi in the Sahara. This house was not built by Han Yi's arrangement, but was originally in the desert, an unknown relic left behind, even after years of wind and sandstorms, it still stood towering here.
Han Jingchen had been in the vast desert for two days, and what he could see everywhere was nothing but sand, sand that would quickly bury his footprints as soon as he took a step.
When I came in, I was riding a local jeep, but the driver only sent it halfway and left. Walking further inside, there is no road, and very few people come here. The desert is a dangerous place, where you can lose your life at any time. Driving without roads is also extremely dangerous, because you don't know when you'll encounter quicksand, and if the car gets stuck, it's a disaster.
In this mysterious desert, every year it is unknown how many white bones will be buried, and how many people will die.
The scorching sun on his head was baking the earth, and the yellow sand under his feet was boiling hot. With one step down, the soles of his shoes seemed to be melted by the terrifying temperature. Han Jinchen was wearing a short-sleeved shirt at this time, and his skin had turned dark and shiny after two days of continuous exposure to the sun.
The Sahara is the place on Earth with the longest daylight hours, especially at this time of year, and here the average daytime temperature is always above 49 degrees Celsius.
When entering the desert, Han Jingchen brought enough water, but only after arriving did he discover that the water was far from sufficient. After just one day, the water had almost been used up, and now there is only one 2-liter bottle of water left, and it's unclear how much longer they can hold on.
If it wasn't until he was extremely thirsty, Han Jinchen would try his best not to drink water.
Walking in such an environment, the scenery around is all the same, if one's willpower is slightly weaker, it's really easy to collapse.
Han Jingchen occasionally looked up at the sunlight above his head, it's hot during the day and cold to death at night, this place is like two extremes, one hot and one cold. At night, you miss the daytime sunshine, but during the day, you long for the coolness of the evening.
After entering here, the food brought by Han Jincheng was basically finished, so in order to survive, he could only rely on hunting some creatures here for maintenance. Fortunately, even if you don't eat for more than ten days in the desert, you won't die as long as you replenish water in time.
He has been searching for an oasis all along, but unfortunately, he hasn't seen any green plants in two days.
In the distance, a small hill-like thing appeared in front of me. If I'm not mistaken, it should be a building.
In the desert, there are rarely any buildings, generally they are in oases or near water sources, next to nearby cities where there are signs of human activity.
The building appeared somewhat abrupt, Han Jinchen's heart was on guard, but he still slowly moved in that direction.
From far away, you can hear people's voices, hoo-hoo-hoo, as if they are doing some kind of exercise.
He furrowed his brow, in the desert, there are also many special institutions established as training bases. The harsh environment here is the easiest to grind out talents and can even stimulate their greatest potential, and even at the critical moment of life and death, it can stimulate their hidden potential.
I don't know whose training base this is, but since there's someone here, I should be able to go in and take a look. It's almost dark now, and there's no place around here where we can spend the night. Camping out in the desert like this is very dangerous, because at any moment during the night, poisonous snakes or scorpions might come and bite you, and then you won't be able to see tomorrow's sun.
That place looked like it was close by, but wanting to walk over there was extremely slow, one step at a time, Han Jingchen moved forward in the direction of the tortoise's pace.
It's nothing for him to cope with these physically, but it's really a test of willpower here. If his willpower wasn't strong enough, he probably wouldn't have been able to hold on by now.
Only two days have passed, and a clear fatigue has already appeared. Moreover, there is no one here, not even a person to talk to, I estimate that if one person walks alone here for more than a month, after returning to the human world, they will be unable to communicate normally with people.
As he looked at the building in front of him getting closer and closer, Han Jinchen inexplicably let out a sigh of relief.
There are alarms around the training base, and as soon as someone approaches, infrared can be detected immediately.
The alarm sounded immediately, and a group of thin and weak children rushed over from all corners. Many people's hands only held a rough stone, and some even only held a withered branch.
Han Jingchen frowned upon seeing these children, "Are they actually training kids of such a young age? Is the owner of this training base trying to train a batch of child soldiers?"
Looking at the little kid in front of him, with a pair of clear big eyes staring back at him, there was fear and vigilance in those eyes. That look made Han Jinchen, who had always been cold-hearted, feel a twinge of reluctance.
At this time, a woman walked out of the building and saw Han Jingchen. She was obviously stunned, "Is it you?"
Han Jingchen furrowed his brow, looking at the woman. The woman was probably twenty-five or six years old, with a dignified and beautiful appearance, but her eyes had an unsuitable coldness and cruelty, and her body emitted a bloody killing intent, which could be seen as having lived through many days of bloodshed.
She is a capable assistant under Han Yi's command, having followed him since childhood and secretly handling various matters for him.
She naturally recognized Han Junchen, and she had also received his guidance in the past, and had a inexplicable affection for him.
"Han Xin, how did you end up here?" Han Jingchen suddenly understood something when he saw the woman, but still asked in a low voice.
Han Xin was taken aback, then forced a smile and walked towards Han Jingchen, "It's almost dark, you should come in first, we can talk about it later."
It got dark very quickly, it was just a bright day, and in the blink of an eye it had already turned dark.
Han Jingchen followed Han Xin into the building, which was very simple and had almost no furniture. There was no electricity here, so they lit kerosene lamps, and the light was very dim.
Han Xin led Han Jingchen to sit down on a rock, while she herself sat on the ground. She looked up at Han Jingchen, and the dim light reflected off her clear face, making her look less fierce and more gentle.
"Speak up, what's going on exactly." Han Jinchen gazed calmly at the woman in front of him, his voice carrying a chill.
Han Xin looked at Han Jingchen with a smile, "It's the young master's intention. He plans to help Miss Cheng establish her own power, so he established a mercenary alliance here. In addition to accepting other well-known mercenaries to join, they also specially took in some children to train as loyal mercenaries."
"For Zi Han?" Han Jingchen furrowed his brow, carefully considering the current situation of Cheng Zihan in Dahua Xia. Indeed, it was very dangerous. In the past, she had been forced by the Yan family to leave her hometown with her parents, and she herself had disappeared for five years after being seriously injured. It was because her own strength was too weak, and now there were many people eyeing the Yu Jing Tai. With him around, no one would dare to make a move on Yu Jing Tai, but now that he had entered the Sahara, there was no one watching over it. He estimated that those people would soon take action against Yu Jing Tai!
The regime of Great China is so corrupt and decadent that probably no one knows better than Han Jincheng.
The country will not allow any individual to develop into a rich and powerful entity that can rival the state itself, regardless of whether they pay taxes or not!
They will use every means possible to turn private enterprises into state-owned ones.
Han Jinchen smiled coldly and didn't say a word.
Han Xin looked at him and bit her lip without saying a word.
"I'm going to venture into the depths of Sahara to find someone, and for now, I'll stay here to help you. When will Young Master and Zihan arrive?" Han Jincheng pondered for a moment, he wouldn't let go of anything related to Cheng Zihan, this was probably the only thing he could do for her.
And parents are in the depths of the desert, this desert is so big, and it's unknown where they are exactly, how easy can it be to find them?
Since finding parents is not something that can be accomplished overnight, it's better to help Cheng Zihuan here and cultivate him first. Once he has a team, it will be easier to search for his parents in the desert later on.
"The young master hasn't sent any news, but it should be soon." Han Xin was visibly surprised by Han Jingchen's decision, but quickly calmed down, with a hint of surprise still lingering in his tone.
At the same time, in the Great China, Cheng Zihan was dressed in men's clothing and sitting in the CEO's office of Yu Jingtai headquarters, looking at the piles of documents.
Han Yi is now searching all over the world for the best career CEO for her.
Han Jingchen's prediction was correct, as soon as he left, the Ministry of Finance immediately sent someone over, citing possible tax evasion and tax leakage on the side of Yu Jingtai, requiring a forced seizure of the place for investigation.
Cheng Zihang and Han Yi were just about to board the plane to leave China for India, but under these circumstances they naturally couldn't leave. They hastily cancelled their trip and rushed back.
Luckily, there was the old monster Han Jia who secretly helped out, using his strongest power to intimidate certain people in the country. As a result, the Ministry of Finance didn't dare do anything, and those business crime investigation team members who came also didn't dare say anything. They casually checked the accounts, then said everything was fine and slinked away with their tails between their legs.
After all this trouble, Cheng Zihuan was also reluctant to leave. Although she had already left here for five years, the design plan of Yujing Pavilion was designed by her own hands at that time, and it took a lot of effort from her. If they all left and this place was occupied by the country, she would be very sad.
Although Han Yu Qian is secretly manipulating things now, those restless people in the country do not dare to take action. However, the Han family has been in politics for generations and truly understands business, so there are only a few who can manage Yu Jing Tai. Those rough men have no possibility of success, so Cheng Zi Han and Han Yi can only go recruit professional management talent back.
In the country, there are still many professional CEOs, and many have returned from abroad. In business management, they are not just empty names.
If there is such a professional team managing the company, she can also go to the Sahara Desert for training with peace of mind.
Han Yingchen is not around, and Han Yi cannot recruit someone to come back immediately, so Cheng Zihan can only rush the ducks onto the shelves and force himself to go up.
But it's been five years since I last touched these things, and I'm really rusty at everything. Just organizing these files is enough to make me choke, my head is about to explode.
It's finally sorted out, and some files that can be approved have been approved one by one. Some relevant report data have also been browsed through to confirm that there are no problems.
Sales reports from all provinces and cities across the country, it doesn't look like a small project. It just so happens that this month is almost mid-month, so all of February's sales performance reports are out. Cheng Zihan only feels like his brain is filled with flying numbers.
The originally planned trip was also delayed, and it is estimated that I will have to stay in the country for another 10-18 days before I can leave.
During his spare time, Cheng Zihan also went to the old site of the previous plantation garden. Now it's all trees here, lush and dense, with many people strolling under the trees, in twos or threes, occasionally you can still see lovers whispering sweet nothings to each other in the woods.
This scene made Cheng Zihuan a little envious, in the blink of an eye so many years had passed, from her unexpected rebirth to now, it had been exactly six years. In these six years, many things had happened, from the beginning when she returned with lingering feelings about the rights and wrongs of her past life, to now, those past grievances were almost all going to be let go, those hatreds were also almost forgotten.
Qin Hongwei is now in a triumphant position, having become the mayor of Nan City. Qin Jing has also become a famous figure in the political circle. As for Qin Kexiu, there is still no news about him. After he and Qin Jing transferred schools together, it was as if he had vanished into thin air. Cheng Zihan once thought about finding him, but she didn't have any leads.
And as for Zhou Ziran, he had long since disappeared without a trace.
What exactly happened back then, Cheng Zihan was no longer as obsessed as he used to be.
Whether it's love or hate, it's all a matter of past lives.
It was just Qin Jing and Qin Hongwei, she still couldn't let go of them, even if it wasn't for her own sake, but also for Duan Yitong.
It's been five years since then, I don't know how Duan Yitong is doing now, and if he's living a good life.
Her mind was a jumble of thoughts, when suddenly a little boy came running and bumped into her, causing Cheng Zihuan to take a step back. Before she could steady herself, a strong and powerful hand firmly grasped her waist.
Cheng Zihan turned back in surprise and looked behind her, only to collide with a pair of calm and unruffled eyes.
When she saw those eyes, Cheng Zihan's heart skipped a beat, and an inexplicable emotion slowly emerged, her eye sockets slightly hot, as if there was an urge to cry.
Digression
The second watch, perhaps, possibly, probably, or maybe there's still a third watch.
He's badly hurt and dying soon.
