“Chen Xiao, where did you get this jade pendant?”
Lu Datou’s eyes widened as he asked in shock.
“When my mother found me, this jade pendant was hanging around my neck.”
Chen Xiao told the truth without hiding anything.
He looked at Lu Datou expectantly and asked, “Is this jade pendant the one you saw?”
Lu Datou was clearly very excited. He took a long breath to calm himself down.
After a while, he nodded.
“The one Four Seas brothers showed me was exactly this one… If that’s the case, you might be the son of my old friend!”
Chen Xiao also fell silent, speechless for a long time.
To suddenly hear news that he might be his biological father, it was false to say he wasn’t excited.
But the excitement was only a tiny bit; what he felt more was an indescribable emotion.
Li Ziqing tugged at Chen Xiao’s hand, and Chen Xiao snapped back to reality.
He smiled slightly and said to Lu Datou, “If that’s the case, I should call you Uncle Lu.”
Lu Datou shook his head, “No, I’m older than your father, you should call me Uncle-Uncle.”
“…”
Chen Xiao was quite speechless, raising his eyebrows, “Let’s not rush into recognizing each other. Whether that person is my father or not, it’s not certain yet.”
“Everything matches, what’s uncertain?”
Lu Datou said excitedly. Just then, he noticed Li Ziqing winking at him.
He suddenly understood and began to explain, “Chen Xiao, although I didn’t have much contact with your father, I believe he must have abandoned you out of necessity…”
Chen Xiao smiled, “Uncle Lu, as you said, you didn’t have much contact with that person, so you might not know what kind of person he is.”
Chen Xiao insisted on calling Lu Datou Uncle Lu.
And for now, in Chen Xiao’s heart, his biological father was just an irresponsible person.
Lu Datou chuckled awkwardly, “Alright, perhaps you’re right. But you’re so strong, it really lives up to the saying, ‘like father, like son.’ Your father was also very strong. Before you, he was the strongest person I had ever seen!”
“Oh? He’s stronger than Xiao Tiance?”
Chen Xiao couldn’t help but be slightly puzzled. As far as he knew, Lu Datou had fought Xiao Tiance before.
Hearing this, Lu Datou directly curled his lips.
“What is Xiao Tiance? He’s not even worthy of being mentioned in the same breath as brother Four Seas… Although I heard that kid has reached the Divine Realm now and his strength should have improved a lot, if your dad was in his prime, he could still kill him instantly…”
Kill a Divine Realm expert instantly?
Chen Xiao’s heart trembled. Even he himself wouldn’t dare to claim he could kill a Divine Realm expert instantly, as he hadn’t encountered a true Divine Realm master yet.
“If he was so powerful, why did he need your help?”
Thinking of this, Chen Xiao became puzzled again.
Lu Datou gave an embarrassed smile, “This is quite embarrassing to talk about. Actually, I couldn’t help much. Instead, I dragged him down. If I hadn’t been in the way, that villain wouldn’t have escaped…”
“To be honest, I had just entered the martial world back then, I was young and arrogant, thinking I was invincible. I wanted to spar with anyone. It wasn’t until I met brother Four Seas that I understood what it meant to have people beyond people and heavens beyond heavens.”
“He was already severely injured at the time, and his strength was greatly reduced. But even so, even if ten of me were tied together, I wouldn’t be enough for him to fight…”
Li Ziqing was stunned upon hearing Lu Datou’s words. No wonder Chen Xiao was so powerful; it turned out his father was also powerful!
Chen Xiao, however, didn’t react much to this. In fact, compared to his biological father, he was more interested in knowing the secret of the Yin-Yang Jade.
So he asked, “Uncle Lu, did he tell you anything about this jade pendant?”
“He didn’t say anything about that, but this jade pendant is very important…”
Lu Datou recalled.
“And who was the villain who tried to snatch the jade pendant, do you remember?”
Chen Xiao continued to press.
“I actually know that!”
Lu Datou smiled, “His name is Tu Junhou. I heard about him a few years ago. It is said that he now lives in Hong Kong and is known as the number one master of sorcery in Hong Kong. What’s wrong, Chen Xiao, why are you asking this?”
Chen Xiao explained, “Since he tried to snatch this jade pendant back then, he might know the secret of this jade pendant. I want to go find him and ask for clarification.”
“Good boy!”
Lu Datou slapped the table and said excitedly, “I knew you would go looking for your father’s origins!”
“…”
Chen Xiao was speechless again, thinking, I’m just going to investigate the Yin-Yang Jade, what does it have to do with that person?
Lu Datou clearly misunderstood. He thought Chen Xiao was using the jade pendant as an excuse and was just too embarrassed to admit he wanted to find his father.
He didn’t know that Chen Xiao truly didn’t care much about that person.
It wasn’t hatred, just a lack of strong feelings.
Chen Xiao couldn’t be bothered to explain anything, so he changed the subject.
The three of them drank until midnight, and Lu Datou got completely drunk.
In fact, with his strength, he could easily remain sober even after drinking a thousand cups. When he got drunk, it could only mean he wanted to get drunk.
After all, a drunk can relieve a thousand sorrows.
Chen Xiao booked a room for Lu Datou at the hotel, while he and Li Ziqing went home together.
On the way home, Li Ziqing asked Chen Xiao, “Husband, are you really going to Hong Kong to inquire about Dad’s news?”
“Ziqing, it’s not certain yet that that person is my father, and I’m not interested in that person’s background. You’ve all misunderstood me.”
Chen Xiao corrected her, then changed the subject to Li Ziqing, “What about you, how many more secrets are you hiding from me?”
“I haven’t deliberately hidden anything from you. It’s just that for the matter of revenge, I want to do it myself. When I need you, I will naturally bring you along…”
Li Ziqing pouted, like a cute little frog.
“Alright, so you’re just treating me as a tool.”
Chen Xiao pouted, pretending to be wronged.
“No, I’m not!”
Li Ziqing said earnestly, “Husband, I’m truly grateful for everything you’ve done for me. If I hadn’t met you, I might never have had hope for revenge in my life.”
Just the Zhou family alone had ruthless people like Luo Gan.
And the family that directly caused the death of Li Ziqing’s parents was a hundred times stronger than the Zhou family.
Even though Li Ziqing was the terrifying Bamboo Leaf Green, in front of such a behemoth, she was as insignificant as an ant.
Chen Xiao didn’t press her about who her enemy was. No matter who it was, he didn’t care, he would just fight!
He teased, “Then how are you going to thank me? It’s not just with your mouth, is it?”
“Of course, not just with my mouth…”
Li Ziqing licked her lips charmingly, leaned close to Chen Xiao’s ear, and breathed hotly, “Husband, while you were trying on clothes today, I bought a new set of lingerie. Do you want to see it…”
Chen Xiao didn’t speak, but his actions replaced his words. He stepped on the accelerator, and the car immediately sped up to 140 mph…
