Zhang Fei - The Abandoned Son Chapter 287: Zhang Chen's Past

The two tigresses, who were chasing Quan Xun, imdiately ran towards Zhang Fei. However, they no longer pounced on him as they used to, likely due to their larger bodies. Instead, they rubbed their heads against his legs in a spoiled manner.

"Haha." Zhang Fei laughed, then squatted down in front of them, embracing their necks and rubbing their fur. "The growth of the two of you is truly amazing, Hu Yi and Hu Er. You guys are only two months old now, but you are already as big as ordinary tigers in my ho realm.

Moreover, your cultivation has also reached the 1-Star Body Realm, and you will continue to grow stronger thanks to the effects of the three pills you swallowed before."

*Roar*

Both tigresses roared softly before licking Zhang Fei's cheeks at the sa ti to show their gratitude to him, especially since he had saved them after their mother died, and he had also given them many precious items, especially the beast pills.

"Hah... Hah...*

Zhang Fei imdiately looked up at his cousin, who looked so exhausted. However, he was satisfied to see the changes in Quan Xun, especially since his body was no longer as fat as it was a month and a half ago and his cultivation had reached the 5-Star Elentary Realm. "How do you feel now? Have you gotten more used to your life as a cultivator?"

"Hah... Hah..." Quan Xun imdiately bent forward with his hands supporting his body on his shoulders, and he looked at Zhang Fei to respond. "At first, my new life was really hard, but I've gotten used to everything now. Thanks to these tigresses, I can gradually change myself, but I know that my changes now are still not enough, so I have to work harder to beco as strong as you, cousin."

"Your mindset is on the right track if you can think like that." Zhang Fei then stood up and patted Quan Xun's shoulder. "The life of a cultivator is truly not easy, and strength is everything. If you possess strength, you can safeguard both yourself and your mother. Conversely, if you lack power, those with greater strength will oppress you.

However, cultivating is like building a house; you can't beco strong overnight, and you must pay attention to the foundation of your cultivation. If your cultivation is high but your foundation is weak, you will be the one who loses, so you must continue to stabilize your foundation every ti you break through."

"Yeah, you're right, Cousin." Quan Xun replied with a nod. Agreed. "Aunt Qingyu has also explained this to many tis, and I will definitely rember your advice. Anyway, can I join your sect, Cousin?"

"Oh?" Quan Xun's request montarily surprised Zhang Fei. "Do you know what kind of sect the Yin-Yang Pavilion is?"

Quan Xun nodded to Zhang Fei. "Aunt Qingyu said that it is a dual cultivation sect, and she also explained to about dual cultivators, so I more or less understand the gist of it. In addition, she provided with an overview of the sect's operations, including its missions and other activities, which has sparked my interest in joining.

This way, I can develop at a faster pace, just like you, and acquire experience at a younger age."

Zhang Fei let out a soft sigh before asking Quan Xun. "Do you really want to beco a dual cultivator like ? Have you discussed this matter with Aunt Tan?"

"Haha." Upon hearing his questions, Quan Xun laughed wryly while rubbing the back of his head. "Actually, I have discussed this matter with my mother, and she initially did not agree to becoming a dual cultivator, especially since she wanted to find a good woman who would be loyal only to .

However, I did not want to give up so easily, so I asked for help from Aunt Qingyu and Grandma Chen to convince her. Moreover, she could see for herself that your wives are good won, and they are also completely loyal to you, so she finally agreed with my decision."

"I see." Zhang Fei nodded in understanding. "Since you have already made your decision, I can send you to the Yin-Yang Pavilion. However, since your cultivation is still in the elentary realm, you are likely to be an outer disciple. Once your cultivation reaches the core realm, you will advance to the inner disciple.

Anyway, I will give you a pretty good dual cultivation technique, so you don't have to worry about that, especially since your cultivation will increase faster once you get a partner."

Although Quan Xun was his cousin, Zhang Fei still wouldn't share the Yin-Yang Flawless Arts with him, and he would only share it with his won, so he imdiately asked the AI to buy another technique. 'i, you can buy that dual cultivation technique.'

[Yes, master.]

{You got Spiritual Couple Cultivation x1}

{1,000,000 red jewels have been deducted from your balance.}

After the technique appeared in his mind, Zhang Fei imdiately shared it with Quan Xun, which made him very excited. "As for your first partner, I might be able to help you find a suitable woman. However, we can't do it now, especially since the situation in the Yin-Yang Pavilion will be chaotic soon, so I'll take you there after the chaos has subsided.

For now, focus on studying the technique, but don't neglect cultivation and training."

"Don't worry, Cousin. I will definitely not neglect my cultivation and training." Quan Xun replied with a serious nod. "Anyway, thank you for the technique, and I will go to my room to study it now."

The two tigresses imdiately followed Quan Xun away, especially since Zhang Fei asked them to keep an eye on his cousin in training, and she then hurried to her grandmother's room because Zhang Chen was resting there.

*Knock... Knock...*

"Co in, Fei'er." Zhang Chen, who was leaning on the bead headrest, imdiately asked her grandson. "Why are you back here? Are your matters in the Yin-Yang Pavilion finished?"

"Not yet." Zhang Fei then sat down on the side of the bed and began to massage his grandmother's feet, causing Zhang Chen to smile at her concern for him. "Yu'er and Shen Tianyu's wedding ceremony will be in six days, so I still have a lot of ti. Moreover, I have sothing to talk to you about, so I purposely ca back to see you."

"What do you want to talk to about?"

As he continued to massage his grandmother's feet, Zhang Fei turned to Zhang Chen. "Can you tell the reason behind your decision to use your surna for your son?"

"Why are you suddenly asking that? I already said-"

"Grandma, you don't have to lie to anymore, and I know that my grandfather is still alive." Zhang Chen instantly stiffened after Zhang Fei said that. "Have you forgotten the ability of my demon eyes? Honestly, I didn't want to use it on you or the others, but I have long been curious about your decision.

Moreover, despite your constant claims that my grandfather passed away before you gave birth to Aunt Hanzi, you have never shown us his photo and have consistently changed the subject whenever we inquired about him. Even Zhang Hai and Aunt Hanzi have never seen his photo, so I decided to use my demon eyes ability on you, and I discovered many things that you had hidden in your soul."

After a while, Zhang Chen ca back to her senses and let out a heavy sigh. She pulled Zhang Fei closer to her, then rubbed his cheeks. "You are right; your grandfather is still alive, but I haven't seen him for a long ti, and the last ti we t was when your father was born.

Even so, you should have heard of his na because he is one of the famous people in our country, and his na is Wang Zetian."

"Eh?" Zhang Fei was shocked after hearing the na. "You an Wang Zetian, the most influential person in our country? That old man's popularity and authority surpass Yang Hao and Huang Rong."

"Yes." Zhang Chen nodded at Zhang Fei. "When we first t, Wang Zetian was not as rich or influential as he is now, and he was just starting his steps in politics. However, his Wang family was already wealthy at the ti, and he was their main heir."

"How did you et him, Grandma?" Zhang Fei curiously asked Zhang Chen. "After all, you have always lived in the village, and you only go to the city when you help my late great-grandparents sell their crops, right?"

"That's right." Zhang Chen nodded with a smile as she recalled those tis. "I was 18 years old at the ti, and Wang Zetian was already 30 years old. He ca to our village to seek support from the villagers to beco the provincial head, especially since our village was included in that region, and I t him for the first ti at that ti."

"Then?"

Zhang Chen smiled at Zhang Fei's impatient expression. "Wang Zetian was a handso man, and his deanor was kind and intellectual; so many won from our village dread of him as their husband, including .

Back then, I was still too innocent and naive, so I quickly fell in love with him, especially after he visited our village repeatedly and established a positive relationship with the villagers."

"Did Wang Zetian try to get closer to you at that ti?"

"Haha." Zhang Chen giggled as she nodded, especially since those were such beautiful tis for a young girl like her. "You naturally know that this old granny was one of the most beautiful girls in our village at that ti, right?"

"Hahaha!" Zhang Fei burst out laughing after hearing Zhang Chen's narcissistic remarks, but then he kissed her forehead. "Even though you're seventy years old now, you're still as beautiful as ever, Grandma. Otherwise, I, Lin'er, and Big Sis Yue wouldn't be as handso and beautiful as we are now, right?"

"Yes, you three are indeed handso and beautiful, and you have a plethora of beautiful wives now." Zhang Chen then recounted her story again. "After nurous etings and Wang Zentian's persistent courtship, I finally fell deeply in love with him, imdiately accepting his proposal. Unfortunately, my blinded feelings led to make a grave mistake by sleeping with him before we got married."

Zhang Fei frowned after hearing Zhang Chen's last sentence, and her disappointed expression made him angry. "Did Wang Zetian leave you right after you two slept together?"

"No." Zhang Chen denied it, shaking her head. "After that day, my relationship with Wang Zetian got better and better each day, and your late great-grandparents also approved of our relationship. Since his political career had just begun, we didn't imdiately tie the knot. However, this didn't bother , as we continued to cherish our ti together, patiently waiting for the ideal mont to marry.

Unfortunately, things beca complicated when I turned 19, as I was pregnant with his son, and he took to visit his family to seek their blessings."

Zhang Fei frowned even more after he heard that. "The result was that Wang Zetian's family rejected you, right?"

"Yes." Zhang Chen answered with a sigh of disappointnt. "Wang Zetian's parents strongly opposed our relationship because I was just a village girl and didn't have a high education, so they thought I wasn't worthy to be their daughter-in-law.

Even so, he persevered and fought for our relationship, but his efforts ca to a dead end when his father threatened to withdraw all his support and erase his na from their family tree."

"Then what happened after that?"

Before continuing, Zhang Chen let out a heavy sigh. "Although he did not approve of our relationship, Wang Zetian's father, Wang Jingwei, never insulted at all and still treated well. However, Wu ihong, his wife, continued to insult and even offered a substantial sum of money in exchange for my willingness to leave her son and abort my pregnancy.

However, I refused to accept the money and promptly left their house to return to the village. Upon my arrival, I thoroughly explained the situation to your late great-grandparents, who expressed their deep disappointnt. Even so, they forbade from having an abortion, and they were the ones who helped through my situation."

"Did Wang Zetian still see you at that ti?"

"Yes." Zhang Chen nodded at him. "Actually, Wang Zetian helped us silence the villagers who were insulting our family because of my pregnancy, and he continued to provide a lot of help until our son's birth a year later.

In fact, Wang Jingwei also helped us by generously providing a substantial sum of money for our son's needs, which I gratefully accepted due to the challenging circumstances of our ti. Since I never married him, I decided to na our son Zhang Hai, and I never t them again after that."

Zhang Fei nodded thoughtfully after Zhang Chen finished telling him everything. "Do you want to et Wang Zetian again, Grandma?"

"Eh?" Zhang Chen looked at her grandson in surprise.

"Grandma, I know that you still love Wang Zetian until now; otherwise, you wouldn't have decided to live alone after giving birth to Zhang Hai, and you would have married soone else. If you want to see him, I will take you back to Earth to do so." Zhang Fei then took out two pills that he had bought earlier and put the youthful returning pill in Zhang Chen's mouth.

"However, you have to swallow these two pills first, and I'll take you to see him afterwards."
