Chapter 272 (1/2)

”Wake up, Ye Xia.” The young servant lady heard a familiar voice call unto her.

She rubbed her eyes and was stunned to see that her young master was already standing fine and well before her.

”Young Master Chen Yan! You can stand up now?! You are well already!” Ye Xia could not help but exclaim in surprise.

Her young master has been bedridden for 2 nights and 2 days after an unknown poison has struck him down without notice.

Master Chen Dong, Chen Yan's father, sought for every doctor in the city of Fairhaven but ultimately failed to expel the fatal poison out of his son's body.

Because of this, Chen Dong had no choice but to go to the neighboring city of Oceanwall in order to bring a capable healer or perhaps purchase a graded pill concoction to counter the poison.

”Why? Do you find it strange to see me recover from my illness?” Our bored gamer smiled as he saw the plain shock on his servant's face.

”A mere poison is not enough to kill me at all.” Clark declared next and went to do what he had planned for the day.

Although our good gamer has no memory whatsoever about the life of the recently dead Chen Yan but his handy system was there to offer him the bits and pieces of what he needed to know.

This much was more than enough to guide him in this particular xianxia world.

”Prepare my breakfast, Ye Xia. I'll return shortly after I go back from the Martial Scriptures Pavilion.” Clark left in firm measured steps.

'Why do i feel that Young Master Chen Yan has changed drastically before my eyes?' Ye Xia thought inside and she was most definitely bewildered by this epic transformation.

The usual Young Master Chen Yan was a lewd fat 33 year old man in flashy clothing. But the Chen Yan that graced Ye Xia's eyes was as calm as the darkest and deepest oceans.

To say that Ye Xia was flabbergasted would be absolutely the greatest understatement of her young life.

'I wonder what went wrong? What really happened to my Young Master Chen Yan?' These questions accompanied Ye Xia as she began to heed the orders of her young master.

She cooked and the smell of freshly prepared breakfast began to spread around her in the next few minutes.

'Hmmm... It seems that cultivators here aren't that blessed the same as my first xianxia world.' Clark noted as he inspected the mix of ugly and beautiful clan members around him.

Almost everyone was wary of him. They were visibly keeping their distance away from our bored gamer and the latter could not help but wonder why this was so.

Alas, such minor things did not at all matter with Clark in the least. He forgot about this curious oddity in the next breaths of his trip. But in his wake, the rumors followed in muted intrigue.

”Look at him! I thought that Chen Yan was already dead!”

”It seems like it's really hard to uproot a bad grass from the ground!”

”Uncle Chen Dong has become dirt poor because of his bastard son!

”Master Chen Dong does not deserve to have a son like Chen Yan at all!”

”A bit too shabby for my taste. But i guess this will have to do.” Clark muttered after he saw his purpose 5 minutes later.

This was a humble building that has already tasted the comings and goings of time. There was a long history on its walls if one only paid attention to the little details.
