Chapter 922: Grandpa Sun Has Returned
At the same time, in a deep mountain in Jiangbei, there was a grand manor, stretching endlessly to the eye!
"Nearly a year, finally home!"
An old man, weather-beaten and weary, saw the manor and couldn't help but smile:
"It's good that this trip out took me to the Ninth Layer, it's worth it!"
In the future, in the Martial Arts World, besides those three major forces, who else could rival the Sun Family?!
He thought ambitiously, in the near future, he would make the Sun Family the fourth major force in the Martial Arts World!
However, the next second, the expression on the old man's face stiffened a bit!
Why is there a white sail hanging at the entrance?
Looking closer, the guards at the gate had a circle of black cloth wrapped around their arms!
The old man's heart suddenly trembled, who in the family had passed away?
As soon as the guards saw the old man, their eyes widened, and then they turned and ran towards various parts of the manor!
"Master has returned!"
"Master has returned!"
"Master has returned!"
.....
The sound echoed throughout the manor!
It wasn't long before the main figures of the Sun Family gathered at the entrance!
"Father, you've finally returned!"
Sun Kun saw the old man and immediately knelt down.
"Father!"
The other brothers also knelt down together.
"Kun, what is going on?"
The old man looked at the white sail at the entrance and asked:
"What happened at home?"
"Father, Xiaoyu... Xiaoyu... has died!"
Sun Kun choked and said:
"Father, you must avenge Xiaoyu!"
When the old man heard this, his mind went blank!
Suddenly, his vision went dark, and he fell straight backward!
Sun Kun quickly got up to support the old man!
After a while, the old man slowly opened his eyes, glaring at Sun Kun beside him; touched by that gaze, Sun Kun's heart shook fiercely!
Has Father's strength improved again?!
"Speak, what exactly happened?!"
The old man asked sternly.
A terrifying aura naturally spread, all the Sun Family members felt as if a mountain was pressing down on them from above, and the air stopped circulating!
He originally thought it was some elder in the family who had passed away, but unexpectedly it was his own grandson!
How could he bear such a blow!
Sun Kun dared not hide anything and quickly recounted the whole story!
"You were right not to act against the Yu Family!"
The old man said, sinking his voice:
"However, that boy dared to kill my grandson, I will definitely tear him into pieces!"
"Father, that boy is very strange, young, seemingly at the Meridian Expansion First Layer, but his strength was not too different from my Seventh Layer!"
"So what?"
The old man snorted coldly, disdainfully:
"To me, he's nothing more than a measly trickster!"
"Father, what is your realm now?"
Asked Sun Kun upon hearing this.
"Ninth Layer!"
The old man said proudly.
As soon as the words fell, Sun Kun and others were shocked, and fiery light burst forth from their eyes!
They did not expect the old man really broke through!
You know, the later stages of the Meridian Expansion Realm, every step up becomes extremely difficult, increasingly difficult!
Of course, the gap in strength becomes greater and greater!
It's not just the Meridian Expansion Realm, it's the nature of cultivation itself!
It's like climbing a mountain, naturally, the further you go, the harder!
The Ninth Layer and Seventh Layer of Meridian Expansion seem similar, but the gap is immense!
For instance, if this old man acted against Sun Kun now, one palm could knock him flying, or even kill him!
Sun Kun and others didn't expect that in less than a year, the old man went directly from the Eighth to the Ninth Layer!
The speed is indeed astounding!
Many can't even cross over in ten years!
But Sun Kun was now thinking not of this, but rather of avenging his son!
This time, even heaven can't save that boy!
Since returning dejected from the Yu Family, the brothers of the Sun Family have been feeling depressed and frustrated!
For their dignified Sun Family to be unable to deal with a mere youngster!
This moment, their feelings were finally released!
"Father, when do you plan to kill that boy to avenge Xiaoyu?"
Sun Kun asked.
"Wait until Xiaoyu's funeral rites are over! I want to accompany Xiaoyu on his last journey properly!"
The old man said, grievingly, a trace of ruthlessness passing through his eyes!
In his mind, Su Chen was already a dead man!
......
Su Chen naturally did not know the old man of the Sun Family had returned, nor that he had made a firm resolution to kill him!
At this moment, he was playing around with Sara and Du Hanbing at Yandu's Yuming Pool!
Sara was playing happily, the only unhappy thing was she had to be wrapped up tightly!
Even while taking photos with Master and Sister Du, she couldn't show her real face!
But there's no choice; if accidentally recognized in this crowded tourist spot, there might be chaos!
Su Chen stayed with them until evening, then had dinner together, sent Sara back to the hotel, and headed home.
Her safety wasn't too much of a concern, as Su Chen had arranged for Shadow Guards to protect her.
Lin Ruoxue had spent all morning chatting with Sara, even had lunch together, and didn't return to the company until after one in the afternoon, so she had a lot of work left undone, and had to work overtime tonight.
She called Su Chen and said she would be back after ten at night.
So after returning home, Su Chen just went upstairs to cultivate, doing so until Lin Ruoxue came back exhausted.
......
The next day, Su Chen didn't continue accompanying Sara, firstly because he needed to cultivate, secondly, Sara had a lot of preparation for her concert.
If she keeps going out every day, her agent and company would be driven crazy!
Although Sara's visit to Yandu was not known to outsiders, her agent and company certainly know, and the professional team followed along.
Her agent had already changed, after the Jianghai incident, it was naturally impossible to use the previous one.
And Du Hanbing, being the Chief Instructor of the Eighth Brigade, was obviously busy.
So they agreed to come out and have fun together after the concert.
That morning, Su Chen drove directly to his estate, bringing along many daily essentials, including food.
"Why are you here?"
Qi Meng, who was strolling in the yard, asked upon seeing Su Chen.
"This is my estate, why can't I come?"
Su Chen joked.
"I didn't mean that."
Qi Meng quickly explained.
"Alright, I came to see how your recovery is going."
Su Chen said with a smile.
"Pretty good, no issues."
Qi Meng was somewhat touched upon learning he came to check on her recovery, as no one had ever cared so much for her all these years...
