My Mother-in-Law Gifted Me a Building

”It’s about time I came out for a walk. But Senior, you’re living the good life, aren’t you? Wine and meat first thing in the morning,” Chu Feng said with a smile.

”I’m at my age. If I don’t eat and drink a little more, who knows when I’ll just drop dead. That would be a real waste. I have to enjoy life while I can,” Chu Tianshan said with a laugh.

”That’s true. Senior, you don’t have many days left. If it weren’t for your severe injuries, you could probably live for quite a few more years,” Chu Feng said.

”Hmm? You know I’ve been injured?” Chu Tianshan asked curiously.

”Of course. To others, it looks like your Dantian was injured. But that’s not it. Your meridians and your Divine Soul are injured, and those are very difficult to repair,” Chu Feng said.

His Divine Sense was very strong now, so he could tell what was wrong with the man at a single glance.

In truth, one would normally only develop a Divine Sense after reaching the Peak of Foundation Establishment and stepping into the Core Formation Realm.

But Chu Feng was different. He was more exceptional, so he had developed it early.

In this world, reaching the Core Formation Realm meant standing at the very pinnacle of power.

Everyone has a Divine Soul. Only when one’s Divine Soul is completely intact does one have a chance to break through to the Core Formation Realm.

If the Divine Soul is damaged in any way, it is a devastating blow to one’s Cultivation.

”Divine Soul?” Chu Tianshan frowned, looking puzzled.

This was the first time he had ever heard of such a concept.

”The Divine Soul is the very foundation of a person. It’s the most important thing on the path of the Martial Dao. Generally, a supreme expert of the Martial Dao will absolutely have a powerful Divine Soul.”

”But if a person’s Divine Soul is injured or damaged, their realm, Cultivation level, and even their physical body will all be affected,” Chu Feng said.

”I see... In that case, is there any hope for my condition?” Chu Tianshan asked.

”It is rather difficult,” Chu Feng said.

For Chu Feng, however, saving him was actually quite simple. At least, he had a method.

Still, Chu Feng didn’t know the man well. Why should he save him? Did he have nothing better to do?

”Does that mean there’s still a way? You can do it?” Chu Tianshan suddenly grew excited, staring at Chu Feng.

”Yes, but can you afford the price?” Chu Feng asked with a smile.

”Tell me,” Chu Tianshan asked, his curiosity piqued.

”It requires a special kind of heavenly treasure, but you won’t be able to find it. And even if you did, it would be useless to you,” Chu Feng said.

”Just tell me what it is. Perhaps I have a way,” Chu Tianshan said, his excitement growing.

”Celestial Soul Grass, also known as the Nine-Leaf Single Flower. It’s purplish-red all over, its flower blooms for only a single day, and it’s nearly impossible to find,” Chu Feng explained.

In truth, he had never seen the plant himself; the knowledge simply existed as a memory in his mind.

”So if I can find this, does that mean I can be cured?” Chu Tianshan asked, his voice trembling with excitement.

”Of course. Your Divine Soul injury is relatively minor. If you can find it, you can still be healed,” Chu Feng said.

In reality, it didn’t need to be this troublesome at all. He could have just used his Merit Points to heal the man.

But Chu Feng had no intention of doing so. After all, there was nothing about the old man that made him worth the effort.

The reason he mentioned it was because that plant was immensely beneficial to the Divine Soul.

If the other party found it, Chu Feng could also reap some benefits.

After all, a heavenly treasure capable of increasing one’s Divine Soul Strength was incredibly hard to find.

It would be difficult for Chu Feng to search for it himself, but letting a Martial Arts Family look for it would likely be much easier.

At the very least, the chances would be much higher.

”Then can you describe this Celestial Soul Grass to me in detail?” Chu Tianshan asked curiously.

Chu Feng had actually known the man’s identity for some time. He didn’t refuse, simply sitting down beside him and starting to talk.

His Divine Sense was powerful; with a single sweep, he knew exactly how strong this man’s realm was.

Although Chu Tianshan had concealed his Cultivation, Chu Feng could still sense that he had reached the Foundation Establishment Realm. His strength was considerable.

He was leagues stronger than Chu Wuji.

As Chu Feng spoke, Chu Tianshan wrote and sketched.

”Alright, that should be everything. Old Ancestor of the Chu Family, I’ll be taking my leave now,” Chu Feng said.

Chu Tianshan looked up in astonishment, staring at Chu Feng. ”You knew all along?”

”Heh, someone who can come and go from the Chu Family’s Scripture Pavilion as they please... Do you think that’s an ordinary person? Besides, your strength is far greater than Chu Wuji’s,” Chu Feng said with a laugh.

”You little rascal. You’re not as brazen as they say. You’re quite perceptive,” Chu Tianshan said with a laugh.

”You are also very impressive, Senior,” Chu Feng said.

”Since you already know, why are you still calling me ’Senior’? Just call me Old Ancestor,” Chu Tianshan said happily, clapping Chu Feng on the shoulder.

”Senior, you’ve misunderstood. I only came to the Chu Family estate. I am not a disciple of the Chu Family,” Chu Feng said.

”Impossible! The blood of our Chu Family flows in your veins! You are one of us!” Chu Tianshan suddenly roared, his face flushed with anger.

”Starting with my grandfather, we haven’t been part of the Chu Family. I have no particular feelings for the family. I only came back this time to see my uncle,” Chu Feng said.
