Xu Yan looked at Master Four Eyes with curiosity, wondering if the latter didn't possess any formidable magic.
"Master is biased?"
Master Four Eyes's mouth gaped open, his eyes bulging like a cow's. He pointed at himself and exclaimed,
"Brother, you must speak with a conscience. Master favors you and senior brother the most. He gave you all the good stuff, and I only got Palm Thunder...uh-oh."
He had let the cat out of the bag.
Palm Thunder was a magical technique, but its practice required rigorous conditions. One must first cultivate the Thunder Mantra before learning it. Master Four Eyes lacked the aptitude, so Palm Thunder remained suspension.
Compared to Lightning Thunder Fist , Uncle Ninth preferred Palm Thunder.
Lightning Thunder Fist consumed a lot of energy, made a big noise, and was hard to control. Palm Thunder was different; it could be controlled and used freely.
Frankly speaking, the several lightning serpents of Lightning Thunder Fist couldn't match the damage of a single lightning bolt from Palm Thunder.
In terms of power, Lightning Thunder Fist focused more on physical training, or at least that's how Uncle Ninth saw it.
He had been thinking of how to trick his junior brother, and now that Master Four Eyes had come forward, he wouldn't hesitate.
"Living here is fine! Communication is okay too, and even if you want to craft Purple Lightning Talismans, it's fine. But as a senior, shouldn't you give your nephew some benefits?"
"Brother, you..."
Master Four Eyes realized he had been tricked!
Everything seemed to have been planned by his senior brother. If he hadn't taken the initiative, Uncle Ninth would have personally taken Xu Yan to visit.
To secure the Palm Thunder Mantra for Xu Yan.
"Junior brother, I didn't force you." Uncle Lin said innocently, chuckling to himself. He solemnly stated his position, leaving Master Four Eyes feeling extremely frustrated.
He hadn't even received any benefits yet, and now he had to give up his secret Palm Thunder Mantra.
"You're lucky, kid!"
Helplessly, Master Four Eyes looked at Xu Yan and said, "Stop practicing that Lightning Thunder Fist . It's useless. Uncle will give you Palm Thunder, which your senior uncle has always wanted. Consider Lightning Thunder Fist as a physical training technique."
Palm Thunder was suitable for single-target attacks, while Lightning Thunder Fist was suitable for group attacks. However, the latter was rarely used and seemed impressive but was less practical than Palm Thunder.
"Disciple thanks Uncle."
Xu Yan thanked him immediately and gave his master ninety-nine thumbs up in his heart. What a great master in the Republic of China era!
"Let me clarify, I can give you Palm Thunder, but you must help me craft Purple Lightning Talismans." Master Four Eyes said, secretly pleased and solemnly stating his position, making himself even more frustrated.
What a loss! What a huge loss!!!
Master Four Eyes felt a sharp pain in his heart. The words were already out, and it was too late to take them back. He had to give in reluctantly.
"Miss! This is a letter from the Ren family in the south. They hope you can visit Renjia Town." said a servant after lunch, bringing a letter to Ren Tingting.
The Ren family was influential in this area with many branches. Hundreds of miles away, on the other side of the provincial capital, there was another Renjia Town, where the most powerful family was still the Ren family.
The Ren family had suffered a tragedy, and Mr. Ren had died tragically, leaving only Ren Tingting. Upon hearing the news, the other branch hoped she could visit, and they would send someone to help her manage the family business and support her growth.
"Mr. Ren? How can there be another Mr. Ren?"
Wen Cai trembled whenever he mentioned Mr. Ren. Uncle Ninth glared at him, signaling him to stop talking nonsense.
All the troubles had been caused by the family. Ren Tingting felt a bit embarrassed and explained,
"They are from my great-grandfather's branch. They separated a long time ago, but our relationship remained good."
No matter how far apart, they were still family. Ren Tingting had to make this trip.
"Teacher." Ren Tingting hesitated, clutching the letter. She was afraid that when she returned from her great-grandfather's house, Xu Yan would be gone or wouldn't want her anymore. Girls who get stuck on something can be terrifying and overly sensitive.
Xu Yan knew what Ren Tingting was thinking. He smiled and patted her hand, saying,
"Go in peace. You need to sort out your inheritance. I will also go on a long trip. Perhaps when you return, I will be back too."
The Ren family's fortune was too vast for Ren Tingting to handle alone. Without the help of her relatives, her inheritance might be taken by others. This trip was unavoidable.
"Teacher, wait for me. I'll be back soon. Don't break your promise!"
"Of course not. I'll wait for you at the Yizhuang," Xu Yan said.
The farewell words were so sickening that Uncle Ninth felt goosebumps all over his body.
He was indeed getting old and couldn't keep up with the thoughts of the young. Old, just old.
Reluctantly, Ren Tingting left, promising Xu Yan before being taken away by the butler. Xu Yan rested for the afternoon and left with Master Four Eyes, carrying goods.
"Uncle, why don't you set up your dojo in a crowded place?"
Xu Yan was curious about this. Others would run towards crowded places, but Master Four Eyes was an exception, living in a remote mountainous area hundreds of miles away from any civilization.
His only neighbor was an old monk.
"What do you know? There are benefits in the mountains. Besides, if your master weren't so harsh-tongued, why would I be in the mountains?" Master Four Eyes rolled his eyes. He had no business in the remote mountains and could only rely on corpse-carrying, which was very laborious.
