Chapter 1054 - The Situation on Earth (1/2)

“Xiao Fan, is it really you?”

The woman was around forty years old, but she seemed to have lived a long life. She was like a poem hanging on the door, elegant and gentle, as if she wouldn’t be surprised even when the world collapsed.

Right then, she stared at Chen Fan with an emotional look. She wanted to hug him, but hesitated. The man in front of her was like a bubble that would disappear if she touched him.

“Yes, Auntie Tang. I’m back.”

Chen Fan nodded and hugged her.

His eyes were a bit teary as well. When he returned to Earth after a decade, his parents were missing and his loved ones were far across the universe. People didn’t know him anymore, as if they had forgotten all about him. Only Auntie Tang was still waiting for him in the villa he had given her back then. At this moment, Chen Fan’s mind was filled with emotions.

“Great, great.”

Auntie Tang patted the young man’s back and tears welled up in her eyes. She had always treated Chen Fan like her own. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have stayed in this villa by herself, with a hint of hope, waiting patiently for him to return.

“Have you heard about your parents and grandpa?” Auntie Tang said after a while as she wiped her tears.

“Hm, I’ve asked around, but I still have a lot of questions.” Chen Fan nodded. He thought Auntie Tang had to know something. After all, Jiang Feifei said Auntie Tang had been providing shelter for the remaining disciples of the North Qiong Sect.

“Hm, come in. We’ll talk inside.”

Auntie Tang pulled Chen Fan’s arm and took him in the house.

Jiang Feifei’s jaw dropped—the girl in the green outfit—as if about to swallow a goose egg. “Oh G.o.d, what did I just see? The calm, mature and elegant Auntie knows that kid! She even hugged him as if he were her own child.”

Jiang Feifei was confused.

In her eyes, Auntie Tang was a calm and mature person. Even though their family didn’t want Auntie Tang to go to Chu Zhou City, they couldn’t change her mind, which was why they sent Jiang Feifei there to protect her.

Jiang Feifei only thought Chen Fan was related to the North Qiong Sect. She had never expected him to know Auntie Tang.

The girl walked into the villa with questions in her head.

“Xiao Fan, this is Jiang Churan’s cousin, Jiang Feifei.” Auntie Tang suddenly remebered Jiang Feifei and immediately introduced her to Chen Fan. She then said to Jiang Feifei, “Feifei, he’s your brother.”

Jiang Feifei didn’t look happy at all.

Chen Fan looked like he was sixteen years old only, same like when she first met Auntie Tang a while back. He had remarkably fair skin, which made him look younger. Jiang Feifei seemed to be older than Chen Fan in every way, so how could she call him brother?

“Churan’s cousin? Is Churan and Uncle Jiang okay?” Chen Fan looked up in shock.

No wonder he felt familiar when he first saw Jiang Feifei. She was related to Jiang Churan. He smiled when he thought about that girl.

“Sister Churan is the most powerful young cultivator in China and she’s cultivating in Mount Yan, getting ready to enter the Golden Core Level. She’s one of the best even in the world cla.s.s level,” Jiang Feifei answered with a proud look.

“Jiang Churan is going to become a Golden Core Cultivator?”

Chen Fan was startled.

But he became calm again. Earth was vigorously recovering like a patient coming back to life. Not only did the plants and beasts evolve, humans also broke through many barriers and moved forward. Jiang Churan had already reached a certain level before Chen Fan left, so it was normal that she would soon enter the Golden Core Level after ten years.

And yet, although they were both Golden Core Cultivators, Chen Fan was powerful enough to defeat Nascent Soul Cultivators. If he didn’t control it, he would have become a Grand Cultivator.

“Right, something happened to Ranran before. She was lost in some mountain and then suddenly started cultivating once she came back. I gave her the ‘Foundation Physical Conditioning Art’ you gave me. I hope you don’t mind,” Auntie Tang said carefully.

Chen Fan suddenly returned without any energy, looking messy, while Jiang Churan had risen to the top of the Earth and would soon become a Golden Core Cultivator. The Jiang family also became a famous family in China. Auntie Tang was worried that Chen Fan would be sad about it, so she was careful about what she said.

“Don’t worry, Auntie Tang. That’s fine,” Chen Fan replied with a smile.

Auntie Tang was one of the people who treated him well in his two lives. Chen Fan wouldn’t mind even if she gave Jiang Churan the True Martial Divine Art, let alone the “Foundation Physical Conditioning Art.”

The two of them then talked about the changes on Earth.

Auntie Tang heaved a sigh and told Chen Fan about the situation on Earth in the past decade. When Chen Fan disappeared, the planet was still peaceful. The Grotto-heavens and the alien races suppressed by him were all behaving.
