Chapter 533: Chapter 0535: We Go Up the Mountain

Daring to strike at Chu Ge means she must have made ample preparations.

Ever since Huo Tianqian recovered his martial arts, he felt as if his body had been remolded, feeling completely different throughout.

He was eager to find a master to test his waters, to see just how formidable his martial arts had become.

Seeing his impatient demeanor, Chu Ge slightly shook his head. He was reluctant to dampen Huo Tianqian’s spirit, but he had no choice. He absolutely could not let anything disrupt his plans.

Chu Ge shook his head and said to Huo Tianqian, "Hold off on any rash actions for now."

Huo Tianqian wondered, "Why?"

Based on his understanding of Chu Ge, Chu Ge would never let anyone bully him; if bullied, he would certainly repay it twofold.

Yet now, Chu Ge was advising against rashness, which was really not in his character.

Chu Ge merely explained, "Their main purpose in seeking me out is that secret manual, yet the manual isn’t suited for women to cultivate. If Hua Liuyue ignores my warnings and insists on forcing her way in, then I won’t be courteous."

Chu Ge recalled that there was still another person’s presence in the private room earlier.

This aura belonged to an Ancient Martial Artist, and he was well aware that there was someone else in Hua Liuyue’s room. He just did not know who this person was or if their purpose was the same as Hua Liuyue’s.

At the time, he was too rushed to recognize this very familiar aura and couldn’t recall who it belonged to.

Chu Ge was certain that they would not just let this go and would definitely seek him out, so it was better for him to wait for them to come like waiting for a rabbit.

Huo Tianqian nodded and didn’t ask any further questions.

Shen Congwen had been waiting for Chu Ge not far away. Seeing Huo Tianqian and Chu Ge whispering to each other, he didn’t approach to disturb them.

After watching Huo Tianqian leave to get the car, he dared to come forward, speaking in a somewhat respectful tone, "Mr. Chu, about our cooperation..."

Shen Congwen awkwardly rubbed his hands together, because this cooperation was really significant and it always made him feel a bit uneasy.

It wasn’t that he didn’t trust Chu Ge, but he was worried; recently, Su City was not peaceful, and he always feared that incidents like the Japanese attempting to fight for something would happen again.

Chu Ge was aware of Shen Congwen’s concerns, "Don’t worry, later on I will set up an array around the base you are constructing. Combined with the Spiritual Energy surrounding Snow Mountain, this Array will produce a White Dragon. I’ll have this Dragon recognize you as its master so, even without martial arts, you could command this dragon to protect the base."

Shen Congwen had always envied those in the ancient martial arts, and although his family didn’t oppose seeking the protection of the Ancient Martial Sects, they had been against him stepping into the path of Ancient Martial Arts from the very beginning.

Thus, he never chose to enter the world of Ancient Martial Arts. Now with this opportunity, although it wasn’t truly entering the realm of ancient martial arts, having the Summoning Technique of ancient martial arts was enough to fulfill a lifelong wish.

Shen Congwen was very excited and couldn’t express his current feelings in words.

Chu Ge, however, patted his shoulder calmly, "Before setting up the array, we need some materials. Here’s a list, give me a call once you’re ready."

Saying this, Chu Ge took out a list from his bosom, a list he had prepared that morning. Considering the recent unrest in Su City, he felt it was essential to set up an array.

Shen Congwen took a glance at the list; the materials were all scarce and varied, but fortunately, they had them all. He readily nodded, "I’ll get on it right away."

After saying this, he left.

Watching his departing figure, Chu Ge sighed softly. Shen Congwen, this man, becomes extremely enthusiastic whenever it involves Earth Ganoderma and ancient martial arts.

This reminded him of another person who was also very passionate about ancient martial arts, but due to someone’s disagreement, he could only look from afar and not come close.

This person was Zhao Wuji. Chu Ge glanced at his phone and wondered what that guy had been up to lately.

He wondered how things were going between him and Mu Qing; remembering that he had promised Mu Qing to help her expel the Gu from her body once he recovered his martial arts, he had been too busy lately to check in on Mu Qing’s situation.

At this moment, Huo Tianqian arrived at Chu Ge’s side in the car, staring blankly and seemingly lost in thought. Huo Tianqian honked the horn and asked puzzledly, "Mr. Chu, are you alright?"

Chu Ge came back to his senses, shook his head, got into the car, and sat in the backseat, his gaze falling out the window.

He had been in Su City for almost a month, and the one-month deadline he promised Nangong Man Sha had nearly approached.

Nangong Man Sha had sent him a message telling him that she suddenly had something to deal with and then never contacted him again. Chu Ge held his phone, hesitant about whether to inquire further.

It wasn’t that Chu Ge cared much about her, but having promised her something and not being able to fulfill it made him uncomfortable.

From the rearview mirror, Huo Tianqian glanced at Chu Ge in the back seat and felt like he had something on his mind. Wanting to ask but worrying Chu Ge might find him too nosy, he remained silent.

Chu Ge rubbed his forehead, thinking it could wait. The urgency in Beijing could be put aside for now; first, he would help Shen Wei Qian set up the array around the cultivation base he had selected.

Shen Congwen was very efficient and had prepared all the materials in just half an hour.

He made a call to Chu Ge, and then Chu Ge and Huo Tianqian headed towards Snow Mountain.

The location chosen by Shen Congwen was near the Snow Mountain’s North Mountain. He discovered that the area at the foot of the mountain was lush with greenery and specially had someone come to examine the feng shui. A feng shui master had declared it a rare and precious feng shui treasure spot, so Shen Congwen bought North Mountain before anyone else had the chance to.

Due to the harsh climate of North Mountain, the area was rarely visited, and few paid much attention, but Shen Congwen’s actions had let everyone know that it was a good place.

When Chu Ge and Huo Tianqian arrived at North Mountain, Huo Tianqian was full of emotions.

Standing at the foot of North Mountain, he said from the bottom of his heart, "Life really is marvelous. Previously, we left the Hidden Peach Garden and re-entered the world from here. And now, we return to this place again. I wonder if we’ll have the chance to meet Master Guangde ever again."

Chu Ge glanced at him, his lips slightly curling, "I think it’s not Master Guangde you are missing, but rather the child, right?"

Huo Tianqian sheepishly scratched his head, "Mr. Chu sees right through me. Ah, I wonder how the child is doing now."

Chu Ge looked towards North Mountain Peak for a while; he, too, wanted to know how the child was now, whether he had returned to his former self, alone in the Hidden Peach Garden, lonely or not.

After all, Chu Ge was not one to be sentimental. He quickly composed himself, patted Huo Tianqian on the shoulder, and said, "Let’s go, we’re heading up the mountain."
