Feng Jiu raised her eyebrows and looked at him. “You don’t want me to leave now?”
“Mm, I’d like you to return to the Zhuo family with me and meet my grandmother.” He paused slightly. “Her health is failing and she might not have much time left.”
Feng Jiu’s eyes flashed. She fixed her gaze on his face. “Why do you want me to meet your grandmother? Give me a reason.” She had a hunch, but she had never thought that it would come true.
He looked up at her and answered slowly. “My grandmother once told me to inquire about my grandfather’s news. The clue was the Blue Edge Sword.”
“What’s your grandfather’s name?” She asked, keeping her gaze on his face and not missing any of his facial expressions.
“To outsiders, my grandfather was the Zhuo Family’s Patriarch. But, only we know that my grandfather’s surname is Chu. His name is Chu Ba Tian.” He looked at her firmly and uttered the name that had been hidden in his heart for a long time.
When she heard that name, Feng Jiu was moved. “Yes, my master is Chu Ba Tian. I can go back with you to meet your grandmother, but I want to know what happened to your family.”
She didn’t specify it, but she knew that he would understand.
Zhuo Junyue said, “I don’t know much about my grandparents and my grandmother didn’t tell us in detail. She only said a small part of it. You can ask her yourself when you meet her.”
Feng Jiu was lost in thought. If they were really her master’s descendants, she must go and meet them. So, she nodded. “Alright! Then, let’s go together! We’ll tell the old man after he wakes up that there’s nothing else to do here. We shouldn’t waste time in this place.”
“Mm hmm.” Zhuo Junyue agreed. After a brief pause, he asked, “Can you tell me about my grandfather? How did you meet him? He…”
“He died a long time ago. It was due to fate that I entered the Secret Underwater Palace by chance and met the trace of spirit consciousness that he left behind.” She looked at him. “The third thing he asked me to do was to find his descendants and see if they were doing well.”
“I just didn’t expect that you were on the Upper Continent. I’ve been searching throughout the Lower Continent. I suppose, even my master would have never thought that your grandmother would end up in the Upper Continent later on!”
Feng Jiu looked at him. “Many forces in the Lower Continent know Chu Ba Tian’s name. But, he has passed away for many years and people in the world slowly forgot him. He was considered one of the strongest men in the Lower Continent. Plus, he had the ancient divine sword the Blue Edge in his hand which could almost block all opponents. However, he was outnumbered.”
“He was nothing compared to the Upper Continent’s strong exponents, but he was a true man who dared to act and courageous enough to take the responsibility.” She smiled. “After accidentally worshipped him as a Master, later, I found a lot of things about him when he was young. Although he was the strongest in the Lower Continent, he never oppressed the weak. If it were not for those people to slander him in order to get the Blue Edge, maybe he would still be alive now.”
She sighed as she told this story. “Maybe it was because of the tragedy that led to the destruction of the Chu family that he felt guilty. So, he sent the Blue Edge Sword to the Thousand Swords’ Tomb when he got seriously injured.”
Zhuo Junyue listened quietly. He couldn’t express what he felt. He didn’t know much about this grandfather he had never seen and had no acquaintance with.
