The Way of The Dao

Chapter 517 Do You Think This Young Master Is An Idiot?

The trip took just over 30 minutes, the average time Ling Tian had set. On their way they encountered countless beasts and animals ranging from the Chi Gathering Stage to the Foundation Establishment Stage. As they left the place, the beasts became weaker, which meant that the further one advanced into the Valley, one would encounter stronger and stronger creatures, reaching all the way to the Peak Stage of Foundation Establishment.

There were only less than 5 beasts that were at the Early Stage of the Golden Core, which were in their respective territories without bothering anyone. The Celestial Tiger seemed to be the only beast that was only one step from entering the Nascent Soul stage.

On the way, likewise the guards tried to ask Ling Tian about the unknown expert who had killed the Celestial Tiger, to which, Ling Tian simply replied that he did not know anything else.

"We have arrived, Young Master. This is Ronchen City." One of the Feng family's guards said as they entered the edge of the city, finally exiting the Nightmare Valley.

"You two, take him home and return quickly. I will contact the City Lord about the current situation." The leader gave orders to both guards who belonged to the Feng family to return quickly. The situation about the assassination of the Celestial Tiger as well as the presence of a great expert was nothing to take lightly.

"Understood."

"Let's go, Young Master."

The two guards nodded as they led Ling Tian towards the Feng family's home.

On the way they attracted many stares, especially the young women who were everywhere. Ling Tian's handsome appearance and unique bearing could not go unnoticed despite having some wounds on his skin; most of the women even envied Xuanyuan Ling, wanting to be the one in her place, being carried by this very handsome man.

"It is not uncommon for some men to work at home while their women go out to work as well."

"Yes, there are even some women who are from rich families and inherit everything, so many men seek to marry them."

The guards hinted to Ling Tian, commenting that there was no problem with him marrying a woman and being supported by her. After all, with Ling Tian's current state, his future had been determined and he would simply be trash in this place if he didn't get a supporter.

However, Ling Tian nodded indifferently, not caring about what these two men were saying. He completely understood this kind of world more than anyone else, where strength and power is everything.

Soon, they arrived in front of the large gates of a huge residence. The other buildings along the way also had the same design as these, so it was easy to tell that this whole place belonged to one family.

At the top of the entrance was a sign with characters written large, showing everyone who this place belonged to: Feng Family.

"Jinguo, what are you doing here, is there a problem, who are they?" One of the guards standing at the entrance looked at the group and approached, asking curiously as he recognized the two companions of his.

Feng Jinguo, the guard who accompanied Ling Tian took a step and said with a startled emotion, "Brother, the little Young Master has appeared, he didn't die!" His hands soon pointed to Ling Tian who was carrying two people with him.

"Young Master?" The guard muttered in astonishment as he completely scanned Ling Tian, thinking it was impossible.

This was a shock!

Young Master was supposed to have disappeared several years ago and was already presumed dead!

How was he still alive?

When the guard took a good look at Ling Tian, he likewise associated him with the past face, finding some slight similarities in him. But when he saw the small book sticking out of his clothes, his suspicions were dispelled and he believed him completely.

Everyone knew about Young Master's personal diary.

"Young Master Feng, is it really you?!" The guard still looked at Ling Tian in shock, really not knowing what else to think.

Everyone was sure that Young Master was dead!

Ling Tian raised his eyebrow slightly at his question, and before he answered, Feng Jinguo nodded and said, "Young Master has lost his memory, as well as his cultivation." Feng Jinguo motioned with his gaze to the guard, which the latter nodded and also sighed in disappointment.

The Young Master who was once the first genius of this city was now nothing but a waste.

"Is the Patriarch here?" The other guard asked, his goal was to deliver Ling Tian to the family and spread the news.

"The Patriarch is in an important meeting with an important guest, so he cannot be interrupted at this time." The guard replied and added, "Therefore, Young Master will have to wait."

"Never mind, I just need my room to rest."

Before Feng Jinguo said anything, Ling Tian replied. Ling Tian knew this kind of environment perfectly well, so without a doubt, being mistaken for the supposed Young Master of this family, they should provide him with a room without pretext.

Ling Tian began to walk into the entrance without waiting for an answer.historical

The guard at the entrance scowled at Ling Tian's rudeness and arrogance, so he turned to look at the two guards who shook their heads in disappointment, understanding a little of what was going on.

"This way, little Young Master." The guard at the entrance quickly caught up to Ling Tian after quickly bidding farewell to the previous two guards. Although Young Master's status had passed to someone else, this young man still belonged to the family.

Moreover, they still had yet to notify his father, who had now become a mere elder in the family.

The guard led Ling Tian and company into a personal courtyard. On the way, all the servants even the maidens looked curiously at Ling Tian, wondering who this person was and what he was doing there, being led away by the family's head guard.

"This is your former personal courtyard, little Young Master." The guard finally stood in front of the entrance to a small courtyard, with what appeared to be a small house in the middle.

This type of house itself was a personal habitation, the main and important members of the family lived in this type of space, so this type of dwelling was normal. It was just that this place was completely dirty, with weeds and grass uncut for a long time, with a small lake completely dirty, as if it was full of mud and the room all dirty and about to be destroyed.

"This room has always belonged to you, Young Master. So no one has been given this room since you disappeared." The guard said as he explained to Ling Tian why this place was in such a bad state.

However, the guard had actually lied. This room belonged to a former member who died while going out on missions. The personal courtyard that belonged to the former Young Master had already passed to the current Young Master. Undoubtedly, the guard would only give this room to Ling Tian.

Ling Tian simply glanced around and when he expanded his spirit sense imperceptibly, he discovered that another personal courtyard nearby was extremely clean and well kept. That personal courtyard was empty, with no one there, but it was very clean and well-kept, and even much larger, unlike the one in front of him.

"Do you think this Young Master is an idiot?" Ling Tian glared indifferently at the guard, turning around and heading towards the other personal courtyard.

"Huh? Young Master? Wait!" The guard was surprised and muttered when he saw Ling Tian leave the place and head towards another personal courtyard.

Could it be that Young Master knew that this was not his personal courtyard and he had deceived him?

Impossible! The guard did not believe that Ling Tian could remember his room, especially since he knew that he had lost his memory.

Ling Tian simply ignored the guard's shout and walked towards the other personal courtyard, encountering maidservants who stared at him in surprise as he continued to carry Xuanyuan Ling and Shin Wei with him. Ling Tian would not let these two disciples of his be in that dirty place, so he did not hesitate to take the personal courtyard he had found leisurely. Besides, Ling Tian could tell that the guard was lying and wanted to leave him in that place.

The guard broke into a cold sweat when he caught up with Ling Tian and looked at the place where he was headed.

The current Young Master's personal courtyard!
