SOGE Chapter 18 – Nie Manor

“Don’t you remember? It is the house of that Nie Li chick!”

Fatty stared with his eyes wide in disbelief. Although three years had pa.s.sed, Second Uncle shouldn’t have forgotten about it!

Lin Hao suddenly trembled after hearing those words.

He had just remembered that other than letting him become a member of Lin Family, this ident.i.ty had also left him a huge problem!

“Of course I remember. But do I really have to go to her house?”

Lin Hao perspired profusely.

Although the secret of his ident.i.ty seemed safe for the moment, if an investigation was really carried out, he would not be able to keep it hidden.

Not to mention other things, just the question of him surviving for three years in that cave, no one could answer it.

Even he could do nothing about it, as the ident.i.ty he was a.s.suming was fake!

“I know that you do not like to go to her house.”

Fatty nodded his head while feeling convoluted for a moment, and continued, “Well, you did say once before, “What kind of man would live in another woman’s house? If you are planning to spend your lives together, you should marry the woman into your house”, so ……”

Speaking up till here, he felt anxious and said, “But is there any other way out? Since it is a critical moment and it is impossible to go and hide in the desolate land, even if I accompanied you, I may not be able to handle it once we encounter fierce beast.”

“Alright, alright, I get it already.”

Seeing Fatty’s anxious state, Lin Hao pacified him, “It is okay. If I can take refuge in her house, then let’s go.”

“Eh? Second Uncle, did you not say before ……” Fatty was stunned for a moment.

“Stupid, that was in the past. Let me tell you now, to do big things we cannot bother with the trifling matters…”

“Oh” Fatty, who seemed to be thinking of something, nodded.

……

That night, two silhouettes scuttled away from the Lin Family.

Borrowing the dim light of the night, the two of them darted towards another direction in the village. On their way, they deliberately avoided a few areas.

According to Fatty, those few places were the residences of important figures in the village. There were figures with cultivation level of small success of Condensed Fighter Blood Stage and hence they might risk getting discovered by them..

Although that was what Fatty had said, he still felt quite panicky.

G.o.d knows what was the relations.h.i.+p between Lin Family and Nie Family like? Fatty too was unsure of this point.

If their relations.h.i.+p was very good, he was afraid he would expose himself. If the relations.h.i.+p was not good and he still went with thick skin, he would be throwing away his face.

However, he could still discern something from Fatty’s words.

The words of that already-dead Second Uncle of his might be pleasant to the ear, but as a matter of fact, he was afraid to stay in that ‘Chick’s’ house.

If not for the fact that Fatty’s words made sense; that he was still too weak; that his strength was too puny compared to the boundaryless desolate land, although he had broken through the blood vessels’ restraint, he would never have agreed to come here.

Moreover, would they really offer shelter to them?

Just when he was feeling perturbed, the two of them had arrived at the outside of a stone courtyard.

“This is ……”

Lin Hao was dumbfounded.

When he had first heard the words “Nie Manor”, the image of “Lin Manor” subconsciously appeared in his mind. But when he saw the real thing, he was stupefied.

This is what a real manor looked like!

Although it was also just a stone house, and the structure was not that exquisite, and compared to the mansions or residences of dignified officials in his memory, it was too simple and unadorned.
