"Xiao Fan, why did they die?"
The old man said in fear.
Xiao Fan smiled faintly and said, "Grandpa Zhou, Huang Yao suddenly killed someone for some unknown reason, and then he committed suicide out of fear of the crime."
The old man looked at Xiao Fan deeply.
"Chen Shan, you guys go down the mountain first. I'll talk to Xiao Fan."
Chen Shan and others nodded. They had wanted to leave a long time ago after someone died.
Soon, only Xiao Fan and the old man surnamed Zhou were left. The old man surnamed Zhou was called Zhou Yuanli, and he had reached the Qi Condensation level in his prime.
Later, as he got older, he fell back to the Qi Gathering level.
"Xiao Fan, your parents are warriors. I didn't expect you to become so powerful now."
"Your father might have met his enemies when he died. When the Huang family chased you away, Grandpa Zhou didn't help you. In addition, Grandpa Zhou secretly asked other people not to help you either."
Zhou Yuanli lit his pipe and started smoking.
Xiao Fan's eyes showed surprise. It turned out that there was such a secret.
"Grandpa Zhou, did you know that my parents are warriors?"
Xiao Fan asked.
Zhou Yuanli nodded slightly. "Your parents are not from this village. They saved me when I encountered bandits. I was the village chief back then, so I helped them settle down in the village."
"They rarely resorted to force afterwards, and probably only did so against the Huang family. The Huang family was quite afraid of them."
"After they die, the Huang family will target you."
"Your father's death might have been a revenge killing. I was afraid that their enemies would target you, so I didn't take the lead in stopping the Huang family from driving you away."
Xiao Fan suddenly realized.
No wonder Zhou Yuanli and others treated him well back then. After his parents died, their attitude towards him became much worse.
It turns out there is this factor.
"Xiao Fan, Grandpa Zhou has to apologize to you for this. You were so young back then, and it was dangerous for you to leave the village."
Zhou Yuanli said apologetically.
Xiao Fan shook his head. "Grandpa Zhou, you're also thinking about me. Grandpa Zhou, my parents' graves have been dug up. Do you have any clues?"
His parents were warriors, and Xiao Fan was basically certain that they had just faked their deaths, but their graves were dug up, which was definitely not fake.
Although the other party did not dig up his parents' remains, he did have such intention, and he had to find this person.
"have no idea."
Zhou Yuanli shook his head.
"Two months ago, someone discovered that your parents' graves had been dug up. The Huang family refused to report the matter to the authorities, and the villagers thought it might have been done by the Huang family."
"I suspected that your parents' enemies might have returned, so I didn't dare to say more."
Zhou Yuanli said.
Xiao Fan shook his head secretly, thinking that it was unlikely that the Huang family did this.
Digging up people's ancestral graves, if they really did such a thing, no matter how powerful or rich the Huang family was, they would never be able to survive in the village again.
The Huang family’s reputation will be ruined throughout the surrounding area.
In addition, the graves were not ordinary traces of excavation.
It was difficult for ordinary people to see this, but he could see it more clearly with his Sky-Seeing Divine Eyes. The person digging the grave was definitely a powerful warrior.
"Xiao Fan, even if you become a warrior, you won't be as powerful as your parents were back then."
"You should hurry up and leave, or you'll fall prey to your enemies. You can avenge your parents when you become powerful enough."
Zhou Yuanli persuaded Xiao Fandao.
Xiao Fan took a deep breath and said, "Grandpa Zhou, I'm quite powerful now. You don't have to worry about my safety."
"Grandpa Zhou, how long have my parents lived in the village?"
Zhou Yuanli thought for a moment and said, "Your father lived there for ten years, and your mother only lived there for eight. She most likely died of illness."
"Your parents must have been injured back then, and your mother expended a lot of energy giving birth to you. Fortunately, you've grown up safely now."
Xiao Fan pondered, if his parents were simply faking their death, why didn't they come looking for him later? He wasn't hiding.
"Could it be that even though they faked their own deaths, they still couldn't escape the clutches of their enemies?"
“That’s not right.”
"If the enemy really comes knocking on my door, it's impossible to deceive them by faking my death. A quick scan with my spiritual sense will reveal that the grave is empty."
Xiao Fan said in his heart.
"System, do you know what my parents were like back then?"
Xiao Fan asked in his mind.
"Host, this system has no idea of the outside world's situation before awakening."
Xiao Fan sighed secretly.
Zhou Yuanli's expression changed at this moment: "Xiao Fan, leave quickly. Many people from the Huang family are coming here, and they want to cause trouble for you."
The Huang family is a bully in the village. When Huang Yao and others died, the Huang family was very frightened, but when people gathered together, they became braver.
"You little brat, you learned some skills outside, but you dared to come back and kill people? Today you must give our Huang family an explanation."
Someone from the Huang family roared.
Twenty or thirty of them rushed up quickly, each holding a sword in their hands.
"Xiaobai, destroy all their cultivation."
Xiao Fan ordered.
He didn't do it himself, so he had to pay attention to details. If his strength was exposed, the benefits he would get from signing in would be much less.
“Ah!” “Poof!”
Everyone in the Huang family screamed in pain, some of them even had blood gushing out of their mouths. In a short period of time, all their cultivation was wasted.
"Xiao Fan, you, you——"
Everyone in the Huang family was extremely sad and angry that their cultivation had been wasted.
"roll."
"Get out of the village today, and get out of Cangyun Mansion within ten days."
Xiao Fan said coldly.
Someone from the Huang family roared, "Xiao Fan, don't go too far! You still want to kick us out of Cangyun Mansion? Do you think you're the prefect?"
Xiao Fan said calmly, "His Majesty of Cangyun Mansion has bestowed the title of Marquis of Wenchang on Xiao Fan. Haven't you heard of this at all?"
"Cangyun Mansion is my fiefdom. If I tell you to leave, you must leave obediently. Are you dissatisfied?"
Everyone in the Huang family was stunned.
Zhou Yuanli looked at Xiao Fan in disbelief.
"Xiao Fan, you...you are the Marquis of Wenchang?"
Zhou Yuanli was extremely shocked.
He had heard that Cangyun Mansion was bestowed upon Wenchang Marquis Xiao Fan, but he never expected that the two Xiao Fans were the same person.
"Grandpa Zhou, it's me."
Xiao Fan nodded.
“Let’s go, let’s go!”
The Huang family members crawled away with the corpse. They did not suspect that Xiao Fan was lying and pretending to be the Marquis of Wenchang was guilty of a capital crime.
"Grandpa Zhou, this pill is for you."
"It should allow you to break through to the Earthly Gang level."
"After your cultivation level improves, you can continue to be the Muramasa."
Xiao Fan smiled.
After he finished speaking, the pill flew directly into Zhou Yuanli's mouth, and the vitality that Zhou Yuanli had lost due to his old age was quickly replenished.
His cultivation level recovered to the Nascent Soul stage.
In less than ten minutes, Zhou Yuanli broke through to the Digang level.
"Grandpa Zhou, I won't go back to the village. Knowing that my hometown is here, the village should develop well in the future."
After saying this, Xiao Fan jumped on his horse.
He did not give more benefits to more people. He had many enemies, and giving more benefits might not be a good thing for the villagers.
"Xiaobai, go to Cangyun City."
Xiao Fan ordered.
Bai Longju took Xiao Fan away quickly.
