Longevity Reward Redemption: The Immortal Clan Starts with Farmers

189: A rock-hard steamed bun, Cheng An and the witch!Chen Changsheng’s group followed Seventh Uncle Lin to the backyard of the Lin Mansion.

Seventh Uncle Lin stopped at a rockery in the backyard. He moved a stone, and the rockery shifted to reveal a deep pit.

”That person is inside this dungeon!”

Seventh Uncle Lin spoke tremulously. Chen Changsheng glanced at the bottomless dungeon and then kicked Seventh Uncle Lin hard.

”Lead the way!”

Seventh Uncle Lin was kicked off balance, but he didn’t dare say a word and hurriedly walked into the dungeon!

The dungeon was pitch black. After Seventh Uncle Lin lit the oil lamps, a bit of light filled the space, though it remained gloomy!

Chen Changsheng followed Seventh Uncle Lin, seeing many people imprisoned in the dungeon. They were enemies of the Lin family, now suffering torture within these walls.

”It’s here!”

Seventh Uncle Lin stopped before a stone cell. Chen Changsheng nodded to him, signaling him to open the door.

Seventh Uncle Lin quickly pulled out the keys and opened the door to the stone cell.

In the dim light, a man covered in blood and dressed in rags could be seen. Below his waist was a puddle; half his body was soaked in water.

”Steamed Bun?”

Chen Changsheng cried out in surprise. Even though the man’s hair was disheveled and his face was covered in dried blood, Chen Changsheng recognized him at a glance!

This was his brother through life and death!

”Master!”

Hearing Chen Changsheng’s call, Steamed Bun forced his eyes open. The moment he saw Chen Changsheng, a smile appeared on his face. He called out weakly before fainting away.

”Save him, quickly!”

Chen Changsheng spoke urgently. Then, those Innate Masters rushed into the dungeon, unlocked Steamed Bun’s iron shackles, and rescued him.

”Dad, wait a moment. Look at that person!”

Just as Chen Changsheng was about to check Steamed Bun’s injuries, Chen Chuanwen suddenly walked to his side and spoke with a serious expression.

Chen Changsheng looked in the direction Chuanwen pointed and saw an old man with graying hair and ragged clothes, looking like a beggar, curled up in a corner of a cell!

”What is it?”

Chen Changsheng frowned. It was just an ordinary old man; what was there to notice?

”Dad, look closely at his arm. Is there a black line heading straight for his heart and lungs?”

Chen Changsheng looked again and saw that there was indeed a black line on the old man’s arm. His pupils constricted as he thought of the Shi Clan traitor Shi Wuyou had mentioned!

Shi Wuyou had once said that the traitor was cursed with a toxic mark on his arm. If the mark reached the heart, death was certain!

And unless this curse was lifted, the traitor and his descendants would be eroded by it for their entire lives!

”Take him with us back to Jade Dragon Peak!”

Recalling his promise to Shi Wuyou, although he wasn’t certain if this person was the Shi Clan traitor, he couldn’t let even a slight possibility slip away!

”Understood, Dad!”

Chen Chuanwen nodded and had Seventh Uncle Lin release the curled-up old man to take him along. The old man was quite cooperative, allowing himself to be led away by Chen Chuanwen without any fuss.

The group walked out of the dungeon and left the Lin family residence under the wary and fearful gazes of the Lin Family members. Outside the main gate, the crowd had not yet dispersed.

Chen Changsheng mounted his horse, then reined it around to face the members of the Lin family:

”Today’s trouble for your Lin family is entirely your own doing for harboring people from the Cold Blade Tower. If you are unsatisfied, tell Lin Tianlong when he returns that we Chen Family members are at Jade Dragon Peak, waiting for his arrival!”

The Lin Family members all lowered their heads, not daring to respond. Chen Changsheng sneered and led the group away from the Prefecture City!

After today’s battle, everyone in the Prefecture City understood the strength of the Chen family, secretly referring to them as the Sixth Great Aristocratic Family of the Prefecture City!

It was only because Lin Tianlong was not to be trifled with; otherwise, the crowd would have already kicked the Lin family out of the Five Great Aristocratic Families ranking to let the Chen family take their place!

Chen Changsheng traveled swiftly, bringing Steamed Bun and the old man back to Jade Dragon Peak.

Upon returning, Chen Changsheng began treating Steamed Bun’s injuries. He had numerous internal and external wounds, and even the Meridians in his body had been snapped inch by inch!

One could see how cruel the Lin family’s hand had been!

”Master, Cheng An is in Tonghai County. I became entangled with the Cold Blade Tower assassins and had Howling Heaven take Cheng An to hide within Tonghai County!”

As soon as Steamed Bun opened his eyes, he revealed Hoping for peace and safety’s hiding place. The main reason he had endured the Lin family’s torture was that he refused to speak or reveal any information about the Chen family, let alone Hoping for peace and safety’s location!

”Rest assured, Steamed Bun. I will perform Alchemy to heal your wounds first, and then go find Cheng An!”

Chen Changsheng told Steamed Bun to set his mind at ease and first stopped his bleeding. His injuries were extremely severe and could no longer be cured by ordinary medicine; he had to wait for Chen Changsheng to perform Alchemy.

For now, he was only using hemostatic medicine to prevent him from bleeding to death!

”Save the young master first!”

Steamed Bun grabbed Chen Changsheng’s hand. Though his face was cold and expressionless, his tiger-like eyes were full of concern and anxiety!

In truth, Steamed Bun felt great guilt for failing to protect Hoping for peace and safety!

”Fine! I’ll listen to you. You focus on recovering!”

Chen Changsheng wanted to argue, but seeing the determination in Steamed Bun’s eyes, he could only nod and agree.

”Chuanwen, you stay home and look after Steamed Bun. Chuanjie, follow me to Tonghai County!”

Chen Changsheng spoke to Chuanwen, then took Chuanjie down Jade Dragon Peak and headed straight for Tonghai County.

Following Steamed Bun’s directions, the two went straight to the coast of Tonghai County. This was where Steamed Bun and Cheng An had been separated!

”Dad, this coastline is just too big. How are we supposed to find Cheng An?”

Chuanjie frowned and complained to Chen Changsheng. Looking at the vast ocean, Chen Changsheng didn’t have much of a plan either.

”We’ll search the vicinity first. If we can’t find him, I’ll have the people from the Black Ice Platform search every inch until he’s found!”

Chen Changsheng said with a grim face. Although Cheng An was accompanied by Howling Heaven, the enemies of the Chen family were getting stronger; Howling Heaven, at the Essence Spirit level, was clearly no longer a match for them.

Chen Changsheng couldn’t help but feel worried!

Just as the two were at a loss, Chen Changsheng faintly heard a long howl. He immediately stopped and listened carefully.

”I heard Howling Heaven’s cry. It’s to the north. Follow me!”

Chen Changsheng’s face lit up with joy as he led Chuanjie straight toward the northern coast.

Fifteen minutes later, on a beach.

Seven-year-old Hoping for peace and safety was happily munching on a roasted lobster. Beside him was the exquisitely beautiful Demoness—Shangguan Zhuiyue!

And that mutt Howling Heaven was wagging its tail at the cold and aloof Snow Wolf, Bingyan.

”Hoping for peace and safety, you little brat!”

Seeing this scene, Chen Changsheng’s lungs nearly burst with rage. The family had been so anxious they almost turned Annan Prefecture upside down, and Steamed Bun was covered in injuries!

Yet this little playboy was actually eating roasted lobster with a beautiful woman. He really deserved a beating!
