Naming Technique of the Night

Chapter 1308: Chapter 729: The Mystery of Da Yu’s Origins (Part 3)

If Qing Chen were the commander of Qing’s Family, the optimal solution would be to abandon the Fire Pit and kill Chen Yu directly in the southwest, causing an internal conflict within the Chen Clan, thereby eliminating any worries for Qing’s Family and Li Family.

But from his personal perspective, he doesn’t want to give up the Fire Pit, where there are thousands of lives.

He is not the commander of Qing’s Family either.

The elder stood up, the intense pain causing him to grimace, his beard trembling continuously: ”We cannot allow the Chen Clan to simply pass through.”

Qing Chen laughed bitterly: ”We cannot rush it; take your time to recover. I have my plan.”

The elder heard Qing Chen’s words and immediately decided to heed his advice.

He was quite self-aware, knowing that scheming was best left to the professionals.

Qing Chen said: ”Before attacking to harass the Chen Clan, I need to be familiar with all the terrain of this cave. You need to show me around. Also, you must keep us from being killed by the Taboo Land.”

In other words, the elder had to demonstrate how to avoid the rules here, essentially handing over the 008 Taboo Land to the Knight...

The elder pondered for a long time, eventually gritting his teeth and saying: ”Alright!”

On one side were the lives of the Fire Pit Tribe, and on the other was the permission to freely access the 008 Taboo Land. He knew how to make a choice.

But it was painful because the elder was unsure if Qing Chen would be as sneaky as his predecessors and plant someone here, creating new rules...

The character of the Knights, it’s really like a panda ordering takeout, bamboo arrived at home!

So, decades later, this 008 Taboo Land is likely to become a private territory for the Knights like the 10 Taboo Land...

Bad luck!

Just then, Chen Jiazhang suddenly looked at Da Yu: ”Why did you draw my junior Uncle Li Dong?”

Da Yu turned his face away without speaking.

Chen Jiazhang pressed on relentlessly: ”Who is your mother? Is it Chen Ningzhi?”

Da Yu sneered and said: ”Old man, you are no longer someone of the Chen Clan, don’t bother inquiring about things of our Chen Clan.”

Chen Jiazhang said: ”Are you Chen Ningzhi’s son?”

Da Yu sneered without answering.

Qing Chen was stunned.

The refusal to answer was itself a kind of answer.

He knew Chen Jiazhang had a reason for asking that, and he himself also found it strange. Da Yu was a member of the Chen Clan, and the Chen Clan people liked to draw endless gods and Buddhas, yet Da Yu drew Uncle Li Dong, which was really absurd.

If Qing Chen had inherited the legacy of the Chen Clan, drawing Uncle Li Dong would be understandable because he is the teacher Qing Chen admires the most.

But Da Yu doing this doesn’t make sense.

So there’s only one explanation: Chen Ningzhi was probably the woman who once loved Uncle Li Dong, and after Uncle Li Dong’s battle with Chen Chuanzhi, Chen Ningzhi was pressured by her clan to sever ties with Uncle Li Dong when she was already pregnant. Later, unbeknownst to Uncle Li Dong, she secretly birthed Da Yu through an artificial womb!

Thus, Da Yu is the biological son of Uncle Li Dong, and Da Yu himself knows this, so he drew his father!

A boy worshiping his father is a very normal thing.

Especially when... the father is one of the most famous demigods of the Federation, whose character, appearance, and conduct are praised by people.

If Da Yu knows his father is such a person and understands the grievances and sentiments of the past, he would naturally have some longing for his father.

Moreover, Chen Ningzhi is a core figure in the lineage of the Chen Clan’s Family Head, and her position aligns as well.

Da Yu really is the teacher’s son...

Besides this, Qing Chen couldn’t think of any other possibilities.

Qing Chen looked at Da Yu, his mood suddenly complex... does the teacher himself know this?

Da Yu coldly glanced at Qing Chen: ”Don’t use your brain on me, go to sleep.”

With that, he swaggered to lie on the stone bed and fell asleep in no time.

Ever since Da Yu met Qing Chen, his body had always been in a state of mental will overdrawn, and he hadn’t stopped fighting, so unlucky.

Qing Chen slowly got up: ”Others rest, Yiyi, carry the elder, we are going to get acquainted with the road now. Within 12 hours, I want to confirm all the roads here.”

Chen Jiazhang was stunned: ”You were injured much more severely than us, don’t you need to recuperate a bit? We only took one hit from Chen Yu, but you took several.”

”No need,” Qing Chen shook his head: ”Already used to it.”

The pain in his limbs and bones assaulted his will, but Qing Chen was already accustomed to all this; during his time at the A02 base, he had lived like this.

Qin Yiyi silently looked at Qing Chen, only feeling that Qing Chen seemed unchanged, yet also changed a lot.

She suddenly said: ”How about I carry you, the elder can walk on his own.”

Elder: ”???”

Qing Chen smiled: ”No need.”

With that, he turned and left the shelter.

Zard shouted beside him: ”I’m going too, I’m going too!”

In the cave, only Chen Jiazhang and Da Yu were left, and after everyone had left, Da Yu suddenly sat up and stared directly at Chen Jiazhang, saying: ”Stop guessing randomly; your past grievances and affections have nothing to do with me.”

Chen Jiazhang remained silent; Da Yu seemed to have unresolved issues.

...

...

Countdown 08:00:00.

The cave has tens of thousands of branches underground, but only 18 paths lead to the surface.

Qing Chen stood at a fork in the road and asked: ”Which one goes to the surface?”

”The middle one,” the elder weakly said on Qin Yiyi’s back.

”Where do the three adjacent paths lead?”

The elder carefully looked at the markings: ”The end of the first path is an Underground River, but I don’t know where it leads, the second path is a dead end, after walking a few hundred meters there’s no road, the third path is a cliff, which is quite strange as there are signs of human excavation on the cliff, as if someone was buried below it; there’s also a bug nest there, they don’t attack people but look very disgusting.”

Qing Chen suddenly had the feeling of watching Candle in the Tomb... but he really had no interest in tomb raiding, at most there’s some gold and jewels inside.

At this time, Qing Chen vomited a mouthful of blood, but he wiped it off like nothing happened and continued to map the terrain.

The elder frowned: ”Are you okay?”

”I’m fine, it’s just internal bruising,” Qing Chen said, then he turned to look at Zard: ”I hear the sound of military boots treading on the ground above us, prepare for combat, let’s give the Chen Clan a little surprise first.”

Qing Chen was going to rely on the complex terrain here to engage in guerilla warfare with an entire Chen Corporation army, preventing them from smoothly passing through the Taboo Land.

After speaking, he quickly ran toward another direction, without even needing to look at the markers.

The elder felt his head go numb; he only felt that this place had already become Qing Chen’s territory...
