The old woman felt uncomfortable once again after hearing these words, as if she was nothing in front of this young man.
"Fine, don't blame me for being impolite then!"
The old woman coldly snorted, her full cultivation at the Perfection of the Kaiyuan Realm completely unleashed, and subsequently, she punched directly towards Su Chen!
As the punch was thrown, it seemed as if a hole had been smashed into the void, causing the airflow to surge wildly!
At that moment, Su Chen also raised a fist, aiming at the old woman's fist!
His punch seemed very casual, even somewhat careless!
This made the old woman even angrier; wasn't this looking down on her?
Initially, she planned to hold back somewhat, but now she unleashed most of her strength, intending to give this arrogant young man a lesson if he got seriously injured!
The fists collided instantly, erupting with a deafening sound as if the roof was about to be lifted off, and energy waves rampaged everywhere, causing the teacups to shake!
The Pei Family, which had Martial Artists, knew a bit about these matters!
Seeing this scene now, they felt that compared to this, their family's Martial Artists were like children fighting, simply not presentable!
At the instant the two fists collided, a silhouette was instantly sent flying backward!
That silhouette finally hit a wall about ten meters back before falling down, causing the entire room to tremble!
Su Chen walked over and extended a hand with a smile:
"Excuse my offense, elder."
The old woman took Su Chen's hand and stood up. At this time, she was no longer shocked but completely blank-headed!
She stared blankly at this young man, feeling like she was dreaming!
How could a Martial Artist at the Kaiyuan Primary Stage possess such formidable strength?
She knew that in the Ancient Martial World, some powerful loose cultivators existed, but weren't they all over fifty or sixty?!
This person was too young, unbelievably young!
She realized that this young man had shown mercy!
Even so, he still sent her flying with one punch, such strength was utterly astonishing!
Could it be that at such a young age, his strength had already broken through to the Condensation Pill Realm?!
If this were spoken of, probably no one would dare to believe it!
At this moment, she couldn't help but glance at Pei Man, wondering where she had met such a monstrous young man!
"Elder, are you alright?"
Pei Man asked with concern, after all, she had been sent flying just now.
The old woman shook her head and then clasped her hands to Su Chen:
"Thank you for showing mercy!"
Su Chen replied with a smile and then continued: Nᴇw novel chapters are publɪshed on 𝕟𝕠𝕧𝕖𝕝✦𝘧𝙞𝙧𝙚✦𝕟𝕖𝕥
"Elder, can you tell us now?"
Hearing this, the old woman pondered for a moment and said:
"Alright, since that's the case, I'll talk."
The strength that Su Chen displayed finally put her slightly at ease.
Pei Man and Pei Zhennan's eyes gleamed with excitement upon hearing these words, brimming with anticipation!
After all, they had been waiting for this moment for so long!
"In fact, I am your mother's wet nurse, taking care of her daily life and safety since she was young."
The old woman sat down again and spoke to Pei Man.
This one statement left everyone stunned; neither Pei Zhennan nor Su Chen had expected that this old woman had such a deep connection with Pei Man's mother!
"So where are my father and mother now, what happened to them, why haven't they come to see me all these years?"
Pei Man asked several questions in one breath.
"Don't rush, let me tell you the story slowly,"
The old woman gently patted Pei Man's arm and smiled slightly.
Next, she began to narrate the whole course of events...
Half an hour later, Su Chen and the others finally understood the entire situation.
It turned out that more than twenty years ago, Pei Man's father fell in love with the daughter of a Sect Master from the Ancient Martial World.
The Sect Master had originally planned to marry his daughter to a young talent from another Sect in the Ancient Martial World; naturally, he was furious when he learned of this affair!
What was even more intolerable was that his daughter had become pregnant!
Knowing that her father would surely not tolerate it, the young lady eloped with Pei Man's father!
The Sect Master naturally sent people to try and capture the two!
The young lady and Pei Man's father knew that they couldn't escape forever and would eventually be caught.
They were not concerned about their own safety at that time, but about the child in the womb!
Fortunately, when they were discovered, the young lady was already eight months pregnant; it was just that they had always been outside and hadn't been found out.
So not long after, their child was born during their escape, and that child was naturally Pei Man.
After Pei Man was born, Pei Man's father rushed back to Yandu, entrusting Pei Man to the Pei Family for them to raise.
Actually, Pei Man's inability to walk was caused by the young lady accidentally falling into a mountain ravine during their escape.
After returning Pei Man, Pei Man's father hurried back to be with Pei Man's mother.
As expected, the two were captured not long after and taken back to the Sect!
However, things were somewhat better; although they were taken back to the Sect, the Sect Master didn't kill them but merely restricted their freedom!
By then, the child had already been born and raised, so it was no longer possible to arrange another marriage for his daughter!
Apart from the Sect Master, the only person who could visit them was the old woman who had taken care of the young lady since childhood.
Honestly, besides losing their freedom, they weren't subjected to any hardship in life, but as time went on, they naturally missed their almost unseen daughter more and more!
The old woman watched the young lady she had cared for since childhood grow more haggard, feeling sympathetic and naturally hoping to find a way to have the Sect Master lift the restrictions, allowing the young lady to reunite with her daughter, even if just to meet.
However, she also knew that this matter was not easy, and if she, a servant, said something, of course, there would be no hope.
The best option would be if Pei Man could get to know a good influence in the Ancient Martial World, or a powerful Martial Artist, and persuade them to intercede, which might bring some possibility!
Because the Sect they were from was a super first-rate power in the Ancient Martial World, generally, people didn't have the qualification to have a dialogue!
That was why she had left that note in Pei Man's room before, telling her to find someone familiar with the Ancient Martial World first.
As she thought, the Ancient Martial World is generally incomprehensible to ordinary people; if understood, it might be by someone from within.
Listening to the old woman's tale, Su Chen couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart:
Pei Man's father and his own father were indeed these good brothers; neither of them fell in love with women from the Secular World.
One was with the previous Holy Sect's young lady from the Martial Arts World, and the other with a young lady from the Ancient Martial World!
But there were differences; his own parents gained strong support from the Holy Sect Leader, whereas Pei Man's father was not as fortunate!
But this was understandable, considering his parents had some special reasons at that time.
Generally, whether in the Martial Arts World or the Ancient Martial World, they were not willing for their daughters to marry a plain person from the Secular World!
Su Chen shamelessly thought to himself:
Indeed, excellent men are favored wherever they go!
For instance, his own father, Pei Man's father, and perhaps... himself!
