Chapter 338: Chapter 281: The Wonders of the Spirit World
Liu Jian’an looked at the dense fog before him, feeling somewhat befuddled.
Although he went out to gain experience, he returned every year. This time he had left later than usual due to some matters, and it had only been seven or eight months since he last came back.
As a result, in just such a short period of time, he could no longer find his way home.
Those who came with him included not only Shi Yunqing but also other people: Shi Yunqing’s parents, grandparents, and a younger brother and sister.
Among them, Shi Yunqing’s grandfather, Shi Rong, was the strongest, being a Grandmaster Level Martial Artist and considered a powerful person.
When Liu Jian’an and Shi Yunqing first fell in love, Shi Rong was very supportive and saw great potential in Liu Jian’an.
…
It proved that Shi Rong’s choice was right.
Liu Jian’an had great potential, and with the years of experience, he had become a Ninth Grade Martial Artist.
He estimated that it would not be long before he could become a Grandmaster Martial Artist.
Since Shi Rong did not oppose, the other members of their family naturally had no objections. This time, they mainly came because they heard that Liu Jian’an’s grandfather was an ordinary old man, and traveling far could be troublesome, so they came to discuss the matter of the marriage.
“Jian’an, is this where your village is?”
Had they not known about Liu Jian’an’s character, they would have thought this was deception.
All they saw in front of them was a swath of white fog.
“Grandfather, it really is here, I’ve also been here before.”
Shi Yunqing had visited once and naturally knew, but her heart felt even more bewildered than Liu Jian’an’s.
Liu Jian’an looked at the white fog, clenched his teeth and said, “Wait here for me, I’ll go check it out!”
He felt that only Uncle Wang could have created this white fog. Since that was the case, he didn’t need to fear danger.
If something had happened, he had even more reason to go in—his own grandfather was inside.
As for moving away, he knew that was impossible; he understood his grandfather and was sure if they had moved, someone would have been left behind to notify.
“Jian’an…” Shi Yunqing expressed her concern.
Liu Jian’an just gave her a reassuring look. With Shi Rong there, they didn’t need to worry much about safety.
With that, he went straight in.
The moment he entered the fog, Wang Sheng sensed it.
However, Wang Sheng didn’t take it too seriously, as Liu Jian’an was also recorded and would not be repelled by the Array.
Before long, Liu Jian’an crossed the white fog and arrived back at Qingshan Village.
Seeing the familiar scenery, he breathed a sigh of relief.
Then he immediately returned to his house, which was also the home of the village chief, Zhou Zhengwen.
“Back, huh, Jian’an, where is Yunqing?”
“Grandpa, they are outside. What’s with the white fog?”
The village chief slapped his head and said, “I got used to it and forgot. That’s Uncle Wang’s handiwork. It helps our village stay hidden to avoid some trouble. Here’s the token, just follow me if you want to bring someone in.”
The village chief took out a Jade Token that Wang Sheng had later crafted, which only the villagers could use to bring people inside.
“Grandpa, then I’ll bring them in first.”
Now that he knew it was Uncle Wang’s doing, there wasn’t much to worry about.
It was good to be able to do this, making the village a bit safer.
Outside, the people from Shi Yunqing’s family were also chatting. Shi Yunqing’s brother, Shi Yunxuan, was curious and said, “Sister, Brother-in-Law’s village doesn’t seem simple at all; the expression on his face earlier clearly showed that he knew something.”
This was also the reason they didn’t stop him. Only his sister hadn’t noticed; when facing someone they liked, one’s IQ can easily drop, regardless of gender.
“Didn’t I tell you guys? Our Brother An’s village is extraordinary, perhaps even stronger than our Shi Family.”
Since the two were already discussing marriage, naturally, some things could not be kept secret.
“I thought you were just biased towards Brother-in-Law…” Of course, this line was just muttered quietly, not taken seriously.
Mainly because Liu Jian’an mentioning his grandfather being an ordinary person was too puzzling.
The group chatted, and before long, Liu Jian’an came out again.
“I’ve confirmed everything, there’s nothing wrong, just follow me in, but don’t stray more than ten meters away from me, otherwise, you’ll walk right back out.”
Just now, he had figured out some rules of the misleading Array, and he was immensely amazed.
“Really, Brother-in-Law?”
“You can try.”
Driven by curiosity, Shi Yunxuan then walked into the white fog, and before long, he was back in front of everyone again.
“Xiaoxuan, did you go in and turn back?”
“No, I kept walking straight ahead, but before I knew it, I ended up back in front of you all.”
Shi Yunxuan felt somewhat scared, finding it a bit eerie.
The Shi Family all trusted Shi Yunxuan, and they became cautious and respectful.
Especially the parents of the Shi Family, who truly loved their daughter and did not want her to enter some powerful faction.
Liu Jian’an caught their expressions and said, “Ahem, let’s go in first. Actually, our village’s situation is a bit complicated. Rest assured, if I really did anything, that elder wouldn’t step in for me. Aside from me, our family is quite ordinary…”
They were about to be married, and he didn’t want any complications.
But words were not enough; he directly led the Shi Family into Qingshan Village.
The one who experienced the greatest contrast in his heart was Shi Yunxuan, who had just entered through the fog.
Though it was the same approach, now it was so simple to come in.
“Brother-in-Law, tell me, how powerful is that elder of yours?”
Such methods could not merely be described by the word “powerful.”
