The wooden door closed silently. Under the warm fluorescent light, the room was indescribably quiet.
The old man did not seem to notice Zhang Haoran's arrival. His eyes were slightly closed. If it were not for his chest moving from time to time, the old man was no different from a real statue.
Zhang Haoran was not angry. He found a futon to sit on and looked at the old man with interest.
The old man in front of him was the first cultivator he had met since he obtained the orthodoxy spiritual altar.
According to the information transmitted by the orthodoxy spiritual altar, the ancient war had caused the orthodoxy to wither and it had been ten thousand years since then.
Zhang Haoran naturally wanted to find out more about him when he suddenly met someone of the same path. However, he lost interest after a short incense stick of time.
The old man didn't even have 30 points of true essence in his body, which was even worse than him who had just obtained the orthodoxy spiritual altar. Moreover, his cultivation method was simple and full of flaws.
Could it be that the orthodoxy had fallen so badly in the past ten thousand years?
All kinds of thoughts ran through his mind. He sat there for more than two hours.
"Young man, you are so patient."
The old man opened his eyes and said with a smile.
"You flatter me." Zhang Haoran bowed slightly and said indifferently.
The old man had left him hanging for more than two hours. How could he not be resentful? Moreover, the old man's cultivation was really something that Zhang Haoran looked down on.
The old man was stunned and a hint of anger appeared in his eyes."I asked He 'er to invite you here to thank you for finding the location of my ancestor's grave. If you have any requests, you can tell us. My Chu Clan will do our best.”
Last night, Chu He kept praising Zhang Haoran in front of him, which led to today's meeting. In the old man's opinion, Zhang Haoran's personality was still good and he could keep his cool, but he had no morals. He was arrogant in front of him. He should never be friends with such a person. On account of Chu He, he gave Zhang Haoran some money to send him away. It could also be considered an explanation to Chu He.
Zhang Haoran's expression changed slightly when he heard this. His pupils constricted as he said in a deep voice,"Old Master might have made a mistake. The reason why I did those things was because I was friends with Boss.”
In other words, if it weren't for Chu He, he wouldn't even have come to the Chu family's door.
The old man was a little stunned. He did not expect Zhang Haoran to say this, but in the blink of an eye, the old man smiled. Waiting for the right price. This young man in front of him was not simple.
"Haoran, right?" After a while, the old man spoke again." Last night, He 'er told me everything that happened to you. Haoran, you seem to have some special methods. I wonder if you're interested in selling it. I'll definitely give you a satisfactory price.”
This was the old man's true purpose for meeting Zhang Haoran.
According to Chu He, Zhang Haoran had mastered a method to draw talismans. As a Dao Cultivator, the old man was very envious.
The reason why the Chu Clan was looking for the tomb of their ancestor, Chu Wushuang, was to obtain the inheritance of cultivation.
"You want the Big Dipper Evil-vanquishing Talisman?" Zhang Haoran's voice turned cold.
He had come to the Chu family because of Chu He. He did not expect that after being ridiculed outside, the old man in front of him would have evil intentions and use money to oppress others.
"Of course, if young friend is willing to tell us all about this method, the Chu family will definitely satisfy any of your requests.”Zhang Haoran's furious old man saw it, but he did not care at all.
When Chu He called back from the northwest, the old man had already obtained all the information about Zhang Haoran. Even the things that Zhang Haoran had forgotten, the old man was also very familiar with them, including the history of the feud between Zhang Haoran and Song Shijie.
Although Zhang Haoran was mysterious, in the eyes of the Chu Clan, he was nothing special. He was like a child holding a gold ingot and swaggering through the streets. Even without the Chu Clan, the Liu Clan or the Ye Clan might pop up at any time.
Besides, the other families were not as easy to talk to as the Chu family.
In the old man's opinion, asking Zhang Haoran to hand over the treasure and the Chu Clan to provide protection was protecting Zhang Haoran, not extorting him.
"Haha." Zhang Haoran was so angry that he laughed. A cultivator who hadn't even reached the first level of Qi Condensation was actually threatening the third level of Qi Condensation. It was really laughable.
"It's not impossible to get the Big Dipper Evil Shattering Talisman. One talisman costs one million.”Zhang Haoran said coldly.
The old man's face darkened. Zhang Haoran continued,"It's not impossible to carve the Big Dipper Evil-warding Talisman. Hmm, let's use the villa in front to exchange!”
"How dare you!"
The old man shouted angrily, and the true essence on his body surged. He seemed to be ready to attack at any moment.
"I'm impudent?" Zhang Haoran sneered. With a sharp gaze, he casually threw out two Big Dipper evil-warding talismans and said,"I see that you are also a cultivator. How much do you think these two talismans are worth?”
The old man was stunned and subconsciously caught the talisman. He was originally nonchalant, but his entire person was stunned on the spot. When he sensed the dense True Essence aura on the talisman, he was even more dumbfounded.
"Talismans, it's really talismans! So there really is such a thing as talismans in this world. Such pure True Qi…"
The old man held the two Big Dipper evil-warding talismans as if they were the most expensive treasures in the world. His lips trembled as he chattered, and his eyes were fixed on them.
"Kid, where did you get this talisman? Tell me, tell me quickly!”
The old man's face was flushed red, his eyes shining brightly, and his cheeks twitching as if he had gone crazy.
"Where did you get it?" "Didn't you just ask for the method to inscribe the Big Dipper Evil-vanquishing Talisman?" Zhang Haoran sneered. How could you forget now?"
The old man's body trembled when he heard Zhang Haoran's words. He looked at Zhang Haoran and seemed to understand something. He pointed at Zhang Haoran with a trembling finger and stammered,"You…You…"
"What about me? Do you understand now?" Zhang Haoran said indifferently. The anger in his heart had faded quite a bit, and at the same time, he was a little amused.
As a cultivator, the old man only realized that he was also a cultivator when he was reminded. His gaze…really made people not know whether to laugh or cry.
"Senior…Senior, this junior has offended you before. Please…Please don't take offense.”The old man bowed to Zhang Haoran and stuttered because of his nervousness. Beads of sweat rolled down his wrinkled forehead.
At this moment, the old man no longer had his previous aura!
The old man could not see through Zhang Haoran's cultivation, which proved that Zhang Haoran's cultivation was far above his. Moreover, all cultivators who had talismans like the Big Dipper Evil-vanquishing Talisman were powerful figures.
Even if the Big Dipper Evil-warding Talisman was not made by Zhang Haoran himself, he could not afford to provoke the sect behind Zhang Haoran.
He was possessed and had crooked ideas on such an expert. He was really old and blind.
"This can't be done!" Although Zhang Haoran was angry at the old man's intimidation, there was a difference in age. He hurriedly lifted the old man. Moreover, this person was Chu He's second grandfather!
"In the cultivation world, the most accomplished are my teachers. Senior's power is profound, so this junior naturally has to pay his respects.”The old man's strength was not as great as Zhang Haoran's, so he could only be helped up by Zhang Haoran. He was even more careful.
"Senior, this is your talisman." The old man carefully handed over the Big Dipper Evil-vanquishing Talisman that Zhang Haoran had thrown out earlier. His heart was filled with reluctance.
Even if he was reluctant, he did not dare to think too much about it.
As a fellow cultivator, the old man understood how powerful Zhang Haoran was. To be honest, if Zhang Haoran was determined to deal with the Chu family, the Chu family would not be able to fight back at all.
Zhang Haoran had originally wanted to give the Big Dipper Evil-warding Talisman to the old man, but then he thought about how the old man's previous threats had affected him greatly. He immediately stretched out his hand and prepared to take back the Big Dipper Evil-warding Talisman.
Seeing that Zhang Haoran was about to take away the Big Dipper Evil-warding Talisman, the old man withdrew his hand as if he was possessed.
Zhang Haoran was stunned and looked at the old man. The old man's face was red. He gritted his teeth and stuffed the two talismans into Zhang Haoran's hands. His eyes were still fixed on the two Big Dipper Evil Shattering Talismans and refused to move away.
Zhang Haoran didn't know whether to laugh or cry. It was as if he was snatching a treasure from the old man.
It was also because of the old man's child-like actions that Zhang Haoran accepted the old man a little.
Zhang Haoran had yet to put the Big Dipper Evil Vanquishing Talisman back into his bosom when he heard a thud. The old man directly knelt in front of Zhang Haoran and kowtowed nine times."Senior, please take this junior as your disciple. In the future, I will definitely serve Master like a father!”
The old man lowered his head.
This sudden change shocked Zhang Haoran. The old man was too fast, and he couldn't even stop him in time.
Zhang Haoran did not speak for a long time. The old man became anxious and said hurriedly,"Senior, it was junior's fault before. Please accept junior on account of the fact that junior has been cultivating alone for more than thirty years.”
"Are you a rogue cultivator?" Zhang Haoran frowned and asked.
"Senior is right. In my early years, I received a letter left behind by the Chu family's ancestor Wushuang and embarked on the path of cultivation.”The old man replied respectfully.
Zhang Haoran pondered for a moment and calculated in his heart. He said indifferently,"You are already old. Even if I take you in as my disciple, it will be difficult for you to achieve much.”
When the old man heard this, his body trembled rapidly. His face was filled with unwillingness, and a trace of ash appeared in his eyes.
Seeing this, Zhang Haoran couldn't bear it and slowly said,""Although I can't take you as my disciple, we can verify each other's cultivation.”
"Really?" The old man, who was originally in despair, suddenly lit up his turbid eyes and kept saying,"Thank you, senior, for your favor.”
Rather than saying that it was mutual verification, it was better to say that Zhang Haoran had guided him. Since ancient times, the technique had not been passed on to outsiders. This favor was huge.
Suddenly, the sound of a stomach rumbling could be heard in the room.
Faced with the old man's strange gaze, Zhang Haoran was a little embarrassed.""I was dragged here by Boss before I had breakfast.”
The old man's eyes lit up and he immediately said politely,"Senior, please wait a little longer. Junior will immediately order someone to prepare it for you.”
After saying that, the old man was afraid that Zhang Haoran would not agree. He turned around and ran out like a gust of wind. His speed did not look like an old man.
Zhang Haoran smiled bitterly and caught up. As he approached the exit, he heard the sounds of quarreling.
"Chu He, I think you're getting more and more impudent!”
"Chu He, if you don't give us an explanation for this matter, don't leave this place today.”
"Don't tell me that all the disciples of the main family don't know manners?”
In the villa's hall, Chu He stood near the entrance of the passageway with a ferocious expression. In front of him, several people, including the Chu family's boss, were scolding Chu He.
"Impudent!"
