Chapter 654 Father and Son (Part )
Chai Xin stayed at Qiao Sanhuai's house, and two days passed in the blink of an eye.

In fact, he didn't know that Xiao Yuanshan had left Shaolin Temple several days ago, but did not come to Qiao Sanhuai's house. Instead, he followed Qiao Feng to Wuxi.

If not, how could he predict exactly when Qiao Feng's background would be revealed, when he would resign as the leader of the Beggars' Sect, and return to his hometown?
I have to say that this father really went to great lengths to throw dirty water on his son.

After Qiao Feng left Wuxi, Xiao Yuanshan continued to follow him in secret until he was close to Mount Song, then he suddenly sped up and went to Qiao Sanhuai's house early.

Xiao Yuanshan was wearing a black monk's robe and a long black scarf covering his face. Apart from the color of his clothes, his outfit was 90% similar to Murong Bo's.

When he arrived at Qiao Sanhuai's house, Chai Xin left under the pretext of sightseeing, but in fact he was hiding in the dark.

In fact, he would find excuses to hide during the day these past two days, and would not come back until dinner time, bringing some wild game from the mountains to spend the night.

Looking at the old couple busy in the vegetable garden, there was no pity or gratitude in Xiao Yuanshan's old eyes, but rather indifference.

"If it weren't for these people from the Central Plains, how could I have ended up with my wife and children dead and separated, and lived a life of neither human nor ghost for thirty years? These two despicable names deserve to die. They dared to teach my son to recognize the thief as his father. I can't get rid of the hatred in my heart unless I kill them!"

Thinking of this, Xiao Yuanshan no longer hesitated. He stepped slightly and jumped out from behind the house. He raised his hand and slapped Qiao Sanhuai who was bending over to apply fertilizer.

With his skills, how many people in the world can withstand a blow from him and survive?
What's more, Qiao Sanhuai and his wife were just ordinary people who had never learned martial arts. If they were hit by this palm, they would not even have the chance to react and would die on the spot.

But at this moment, a black figure tumbled out from behind a bush in the distance, and arrived first, blocking the side of Qiao Sanhuai in an instant, and also swung out a palm, colliding with him fiercely.

"boom!"

With a muffled sound, a powerful internal force burst out, and where the two palms met, a faint "hissing" sound was emitted from the brain, like a raging fire spewing oil, or like water vapor evaporating.

"Ah! Who is it?"

Qiao Sanhuai was horrified and realized that his life was hanging by a thread!
Seeing this scene not far away, Qiao's mother turned pale and shouted, "Old man!"

Qiao Sanhuai finally came to his senses. He didn't care about the farm work at hand and quickly ran back, shielding his wife behind him, his face still a little frightened.

"This must be Feng'er's enemy. They couldn't deal with our son, so they came to our house and attacked us old couple!"

Qiao Sanhuai held his wife's hand, but he had some guesses in his mind.

Mother Qiao was thankful and said, "If it weren't for Nephew Chai being here this time, we two old bones would have never been able to see Feng'er alive again!"

While the two were talking, Xiao Yuanshan and Chai Xin had already exchanged several moves.

"Why are you here?"

After several unsuccessful attempts, Xiao Yuanshan suddenly leaped back and looked at Chai Xin carefully, his eyes revealing an indescribable surprise.

He had been following Qiao Feng before, so he naturally knew that Chai Xin had sworn brotherhood with him, and he even witnessed the strength that Chai Xin displayed in the apricot forest.

But he never expected that Chai Xin, who had already left the apricot forest, would actually appear in Qiao Sanhuai's home thousands of miles away!

"You have indeed been following Qiao Feng all the time. If I am not mistaken, my second brother will be here soon, right?" Chai Xin did not answer the other party's question, and there was no surprise in his tone.

He was not surprised that Xiao Yuanshan knew him, as he had already guessed it in his mind.

"How can you be so powerful?"

This was the second sentence Xiao Yuanshan spoke.

He was indeed very shocked. Although he had only exchanged three moves with Chai Xin, he could fully feel the opponent's strong strength.

He was clearly the last one to start, but he arrived before him. That would have been fine, but he even managed to easily neutralize his three killing moves!
He had just made up his mind to kill Qiao Sanhuai and his wife, and if anyone tried to stop him, he would naturally not hold back at all.

But even when he tried his best, Xiao Yuanshan still couldn't gain any advantage over Chai Xin, let alone gain the upper hand!

"Now that I'm here, don't even think about touching your uncle and aunt."

Chai Xin smiled slightly and crossed his arms to block Xiao Yuanshan.

Xiao Yuanshan was furious when he heard this. Although he didn't have a very good impression of Chai Xin, he was his son's sworn brother after all, and he had stood up for his son in Xingzilin, so he still liked him.

At the very least, he would not look at Chai Xin the same way he looked at other Han Chinese who were related to Qiao Feng, wanting to kill them without any discrimination.

But he didn't expect that this young man would actually protect the Han Chinese pariah couple who "corrupted" his son, and even called them uncle and aunt!
I am your real uncle!
Xiao Yuanshan was so angry that he wanted to roar to the sky, but in order to accomplish his ambitions, he finally suppressed his anger.

"I underestimated you! But I will never let these two old guys go. You'd better not give me any chance!"

Xiao Yuanshan snorted coldly, knowing that with Chai Xin around, there was probably no hope of killing Qiao Sanhuai and his wife.

At the same time, as Chai Xin had just said, Qiao Feng was probably already on his way up the mountain, and he didn't want to meet him now.

After saying that, he jumped up, intending to use his lightness skills to leave here first.

"You come as you please, and leave as you please. Your Excellency's actions really show that you don't take me seriously!"

But Chai Xin had no intention of letting him go. He immediately flashed and his palm turned into an eagle claw, grabbing Xiao Yuanshan's ankle which was already in the air.

"Come back you!"

With a light shout, his powerful internal force surged out, passing through his five fingers and rushing straight from Xiao Yuanshan's calf to his Dantian Qi Sea.

"you!"

Xiao Yuanshan felt as if there was a mountain hanging on his feet, which was heavier than he had imagined. His body, which had already flown up into the sky, was thrown back heavily.

At the same time, a surge of internal energy penetrated into his dantian, causing his internal organs to jump. For a moment, he felt his blood and energy surging, and he could not use all his internal energy freely. He was almost knocked to the ground by Chai Xin's pull.

Fortunately, he was experienced in fighting against enemies, and when his face was only three inches away from the mud, he managed to make a 180-degree turn by relying on the brute force of his waist and abdominal muscles.

After facing upwards again, his free foot immediately kicked out with great force, directly at Chai Xin's face.

"Well done!"

Chai Xin was not shocked at all. Instead, a smile appeared on his face. He was delighted to see the prey - these old masters were much stronger than most young masters in terms of both skills and ability.

Before he finished speaking, he pushed out another palm and actually grabbed Xiao Yuanshan's other ankle!
"not good!"

Xiao Yuanshan's legs were restrained and his whole body was clamped in the air, with panic immediately appearing in his eyes.

He tried to move his legs, but Chai Xin's hands were like two iron clamps. No matter how hard he tried, it was useless. "Go!"

Chai Xin chuckled, turned around on the spot, and suddenly threw his hands downward with force!
"boom!"

Amidst the flying dust, Xiao Yuanshan's burly body sank completely into the mud in the vegetable garden.

He tried hard to get up, but Chai Xin stepped on his back and sneered, "If you fall to the ground, just lie still for a while, don't get up in a hurry."

"puff!"

Xiao Yuanshan had never suffered such humiliation since he was born, even though the battle outside Yanmen Pass thirty years ago was so brutal. In addition, Chai Xin's kick was so strong that he couldn't help but spurt out a mouthful of blood, which stained the ground red through the face towel.

At this time, Chai Xin turned around and looked at the frightened Qiao Sanhuai and his wife, and said in a gentle voice: "Uncle and aunt, please go to the house and rest for a while. I want to interrogate this thief and see if he is an assassin from Mongolia and Liao."

"Okay! My dear nephew, please do as you please. We old couple won't get in the way."

Qiao Sanhuai was able to raise a son like Qiao Feng. Although he was not a well-educated man, he must have a heart full of love for the Song Dynasty.

When he heard that this matter might be related to the conflict between Song and Liao, he immediately pulled his wife, who still had a worried look on her face, into the house without saying a word.

After the two old men walked into the room, Chai Xin squatted down, stretched out a hand and placed it on Xiao Yuanshan's back.

"Dao Xuan Gong" immediately began to work, and the powerful internal force was plundered out from Xiao Yuanshan's body.

Xiao Yuanshan's whole body trembled violently. A trace of thrilling horror flashed across his pair of sinister and ferocious old eyes, and then a deep despair emerged.

"Could this be the legendary Bei Ming Divine Art? I never thought that after nearly sixty years of hard training, I would end up doing nothing but making wedding clothes for others!"

No matter how sad and unwilling he felt in his heart, the internal energy in his dantian was still being sucked away uncontrollably until there was not a drop left.

"Yeah, stronger than Murong Bo!"

Chai Xin withdrew his hand, nodded with some satisfaction, and a faint smile on his face.

Xiao Yuanshan's skills reached sixty-eight years. After it was transformed into the internal force of "Daoxuan Gong", there were more than six years left, which made Chai Xin's skills reach sixty-seven years!

This improvement brought Chai Xin one step closer to the so-called "Grandmaster" realm.

He had a feeling that once his skills were improved to "seventy years", perhaps some real qualitative change would occur.

By then, he will finally see the fundamental rules of this world.

"You don't have to thank me, old man. Saving your life was just a matter of convenience."

Chai Xin clapped his hands lightly, then moved his feet away from Xiao Yuanshan's back.

When Xiao Yuanshan heard this, his motionless body trembled again, and he was obviously very angry - you took away my life's skills, and you still say you don't need to thank me??? You also saved my life???

If Xiao Yuanshan could still move a finger now, he would do everything he could to stab Chai Xin to death.

"Don't disbelieve me! You don't understand Buddhism, nor do you know the secret formulas, but you have been practicing the 72 Shaolin Kung Fu techniques for 30 years. You have already gone astray. If you continue to develop like this, you will be lucky if you can live another year or two!"

Chai Xin brought up what he had said to Murong Bo and began to act as a life mentor.

"Although I have taken away all your skills this time, I have also allowed you to live at least ten years longer. Isn't that worth it? Don't be ungrateful!"

"fart!"

Xiao Yuanshan cursed in his heart, wishing he could eat Chai Xin alive, but he refused to believe a single word he said.

"It's hard to be a good person! If it weren't for my second brother, do you think I would care about you? A father should act like a father. What's the point of always trying to throw dirty water on your own son? You can take revenge if you want, I have no reason to stop you, but if you let my brother suffer injustice, then I can't stand it!"

Chai Xin was talking in a low voice. If it were an unrelated person, they would definitely feel that his words were incoherent and would not understand a single word he said.

But Xiao Yuanshan was the person involved, so how could he not understand?
He had already been stunned by Chai Xin's words. If his face had not been buried in the ground, Chai Xin would have been able to see it clearly.

"Oh, you can't keep lying like this. It's not good to suffocate to death."

Chai Xin seemed to have just remembered this. He quickly bent down, grabbed Xiao Yuanshan by the back of the collar, lifted him up, then leaped onto the roof and flipped him over and threw him there.

It was not until this moment that he saw Xiao Yuanshan's red eyes, which were a mixture of anger and shock.

"Don't stare at me like that. Your son will be here soon. If I tell him the whole story, he will definitely not blame me for destroying you. On the contrary, he will thank me. Do you believe it?"

Chai Xin sat cross-legged on the roof, looking down the mountain.

Xiao Yuanshan was extremely irritated by his words, but he had just lost his power and was extremely weak. He even had difficulty breathing, let alone arguing with others.

He could only stare at Chai Xin fiercely and could do nothing else.

"Hey, I'm under a lot of pressure when you stare at me like that! Hey, look down the mountain, does that figure look familiar?"

Chai Xin suddenly stood up and pointed at a tall Tibetan man who was walking briskly on the rugged mountain road at the foot of the mountain as if he were walking on flat ground, and exclaimed.

Xiao Yuanshan couldn't even move his neck, he could only roll his eyes and look down desperately.

Fortunately, this place was on a hillside, and he was on the roof. Although he could not move, he still saw it - his eyes changed suddenly.

That figure was naturally no one else but Qiao Feng who had rushed back from Wuxi in a dusty state.

"Don't worry, I won't force you to recognize my second brother. However, if you refuse to recognize him and let him know that you want to kill his parents... my goodness, he will definitely chop you up! I can't let my second brother bear the infamy of patricide."

Chai Xin shook his head, his tone quite helpless.

Qiao Feng’s speed was quite fast. In just a few words, he was already close.

Before he came over, he could only hear him shouting, "Dad, Mom, the child is back!"

The next moment, Qiao Feng appeared beside the vegetable garden with a weather-beaten face.

He looked up, and the simple smile on his face froze. He asked in astonishment, "Brother, why are you here?"

But at this moment, the door of the earthen house in the middle was pushed open with a creaky sound, revealing two old and confused faces.
