Chapter 290: 290
“Mr. Chen, your grandson will be fine.” Dongcheng Yang, the head of the Green Cloud Immortal Sect said helplessly.
After Chen Xu disappeared, Chen Lifeng had a fight with Yin Ghost Sect and then Heavenly God Sect before he came to Green Cloud Immortal Sect.
“Why did Xiao Jinting the bastard took Xiao Xu with him when he left?” Chen Lifeng said grumpily.
Dongcheng Yang smiled bitterly and said, “Under the circumstances, Xiao Jinting took your grandson away for the sake of his safety.”
Chen Lifeng snorted coldly and said, “That sounds nice.” Ever since Chen Xu met the Xiao family, he drifted away from his grandpa, who wondered how Xiao Xiaodong enchanted Chen Xu and made a follower of him.
Chen Lifeng narrowed his eyes. His grandson should know that Xiao Jinting had taken the Soul Refining Water from the secret realm. Even if he didn’t know about it, he should have guessed part of the truth. However, he didn’t mention it after he came back.
“How much do you know about Xiao Jinting?” Chen Lifeng asked.
“I’m very sorry, but I don’t know much more than you,” said Dongcheng Yang awkwardly.
Dongcheng Yang was shocked to hear that Xiao Jinting had killed Red Fire Monster. He asked the Golden Core cultivators in the sect, but very few people were familiar with Xiao Jinting.
Dongcheng Yang investigated and found out that Xiao Jinting was Xiaofan’s father. After Xiao Xiaofan joined the sect for a few years, Xiao Jinting brought the family over and worked in the spiritual herb garden. The management of the sect except Qiu Yun did not have much contact with him. Xiao Jinting became a member of the sect in order to enter the secret realm.
“How many spiritual roots does Xiao Jinting have?” Chen Lifeng asked.
“Three.” Dongcheng Yang said without thinking.
After Xiao Jinting joined the sect, a qualification check was conducted on him. Dongcheng Yang didn’t know about this in the beginning. After Xiao Jinting got famous, he went to check and gather the information.
In fact, Chen Lifeng was not the only one who had recently come and asked about Xiao Jinting.
“Three Spiritual Roots.” Chen Lifeng remembered Chen Xu saying that Xiao Xiaodong’s parents had Xiao Xiaodong long ago. Xiao Jinting was at most thirty years old. It was not surprising that a One Root genius advanced to Golden Core at the age of thirty, but it was extraordinary for a Three Root to achieve this.
Xiao Xiaodong gave Chen Xu the Spirit Cleansing Pill, but Chen Lifeng didn’t believe that Xiao Xiaodong was a selfless person. More likely, he had found quite many Spirit Cleansing Pills and gave Chen Xu the extra.
Chen Lifeng sighed softly and said, “Forget it. Children have their own lives to live.” Chen Lifeng felt that his grandson had changed and got his own idea after what he had experienced in the mine.
“The righteous sects are at war with the demonic sects in Cloud Continent, and it’s good for your grandson to go somewhere else.” said Dongcheng Yang.
Chen Lifeng sighed and said worriedly, “They are only Foundation Establishment cultivators. I wonder if they can stand their ground if they go to a new place.”
“The eaglet will never grow up if the eagle keeps it under its wings. Mr. Chen, it’s time to let go. Maybe one day your grandson will come back and give you a surprise.”
Chen Lifeng snorted coldly and said, “He managed to safely come out of the secret realm. In the end, he ran away again. I don’t know where the teleportation array will lead to.” If Xiao Jinting was smart, he wouldn’t come back in the short term. If he didn’t come back, his grandson wouldn’t be able to come back.

“Have you heard that Chen Xu followed the Xiao family and left Cloud Continent through the teleportation array for an unknown place?”
“It is said that Xiao Jinting is the one who killed many people of Yin Ghost Sect and stole the most valuable treasure of Heavenly God Sect.”
“After Xiao Jinting came out of the secret realm, he advanced to Golden Core and killed Red Fire Monster, who had been famous for a long time. I haven’t heard of such an awesome expert in Cloud Immortal Sect before.”
“It’s not surprising that he is extraordinary, as he is the father of Xiaofan the genius.”
Qiao Xiang listened to the conversation in depression.
He had met Chen Xu a few times in the secret realm, and he had never paid attention to Xiao Jinting, who was with Chen Xu. He thought he was Chen Xu’s bodyguard. He felt frustrated when he heard of the great achievements that Xiao Jinting had made.
Luo Yuting lowered her head and thought to herself, “No wonder Chen Xu was able to get out of danger every time in the secret realm. It turns out that Xiao Jinting protected him. Chen Xu must have known that Xiao Jinting was powerful, so he did not hesitate to abandon the people his grandfather had arranged for him.”
“Qiao, have you met Xiao Jinting? Is he particularly powerful?”
Qiao Xiang rolled his eyes and said, “I didn’t see that. Instead, I thought he was a coward.” When Qiao Xiang thought back carefully, he insisted that Xiao Jinting was an obedient servant. He doubted whether the Heavenly God Sect and Yin Ghost Sect had mistaken Xiao Jinting as a master.
“Looks like Xiao Jinting hid himself very well!”
“Xiao Jinting won’t be back in the short term,” Qiao Xiang said.
Luo Yuting nodded. “That’s right. Both Yin Ghost Sect and Heavenly God Sect are looking for him. If he dares to show up, he would be torn apart.”
