Chapter 40: Hiding Is the Way to Go!

The next morning, Chen Yuan habitually opened the system map and took a look, wanting to see if the location check-in had been refreshed.

As Chen Yuan broke through to the Qi Gathering Realm, the scope of the system map became much larger, and the map of the entire Crescent County already appeared.

"Hey, two check-in locations have been refreshed."

At this time, Chen Yuan's eyes couldn't help but light up when he saw the changes on the system map.

As Chen Yuan operated, he discovered the two check-in and refresh locations.

One is in the Zhou family's mansion in Wei County.

The other one is in Crescent County.

"Crescent County, it looks like we need to leave for there soon."

Chen Yuan's eyes flashed slightly, thinking to himself.

For now, let’s go to Zhou’s house to sign in.

"Speaking of the Zhou family, their presence in the life simulation seems to be low."

Chen Yuan pondered slightly.

In previous life simulations, the Zhou family behaved like a neutral family, not interfering in anything, and highlighting a Buddhist lineage.

"Where the location is signed in and refreshed, something big or small will happen. This Zhou family may also be hiding some secrets."

Chen Yuan's eyes flashed slightly. After putting on his clothes, he went out and planned to visit Zhou's family.

After arriving at Zhou's house, Chen Yuan directly showed his Qi Gathering Realm cultivation and explained his purpose just like he did when he saw Bai Tianji.

The guards of the Zhou family knew that Chen Yuan was actually a strong man in the Qi Gathering Realm, so they naturally did not dare to stop him. They quickly invited Chen Yuan into the mansion and took him to see the head of the Zhou family.

Soon, Chen Yuan came to the study of Zhou Changshou, the head of the Zhou family.

The sign-in location happened to be in the study of Zhou Changshou, the head of the Zhou family.

"System, I want to sign in."

Chen Yuan said in his heart.

"Ding, the sign-in is successful. Congratulations to the host for getting an ordinary simulation opportunity."

The system's voice rang.

After successfully signing in, Chen Yuan raised the corners of his mouth slightly with a smile. He cupped his hands towards Zhou Changshou and said, "Master Zhou, my name is Chen Yuan. I came here today to learn from the Master Zhou."

"Zhou is not interested in fighting or killing. If the purpose of Brother Chen's coming here is to discuss matters, then please come back."

Zhou Changshou shook his head and refused.

Hearing this, Chen Yuan had no intention of forcing it and planned to say goodbye and leave.

After all, the purpose of his trip was simply to sign in, and the discussion was just rhetoric.

Although he was somewhat interested in the Zhou family because of the location to sign in, he did not want to spend time investigating the details of the Zhou family.

At this time, Chen Yuan suddenly felt that Zhou Changshou's appearance was somewhat similar to Zhou Shui's, and couldn't help but ask: "Master Zhou, do you know Zhou Shiqing?"

"Brother Chen, I once had a brother named Zhou Shiqing, but for some reasons, he chose to run away from home. Do you know where he is now? If Brother Chen is willing to tell his whereabouts, our Zhou family is willing to treat him with generous gifts."

Zhou Changshou was startled at first, and then said with surprise on his face.

"Zhou Shiqing lives in Chen County and has long been married and has children. However, when the couple was fishing on the river a few years ago, they were attacked by a demon fish and both died."

Chen Yuan didn't expect that Zhou Shui's clan was actually the Zhou family in Wei County, so he said with some regret.

"Third brother, is he already dead...?" Zhou Changshou's face was full of melancholy and sadness.

"Brother Chen, are their children still alive?"

Immediately, Zhou Changshou couldn't help but ask.

"Both brother and sister are still alive, but their living conditions are not very good."

Chen Yuan shook his head and said.

"Thank you, Brother Chen, for informing me. I will send someone to Chen County today to pick them up and raise them."

Zhou Changshou said gratefully.

Chen Yuan laughed and said, "No need to thank me, it's just a little effort."

"Brother Chen, Zhou owes you a favor. If you encounter difficulties in the future, Zhou will definitely help you within his ability."

Zhou Changshou said with his hands raised.

Chen Yuan smiled and nodded without saying much.

Zhou Changshou was in an ordinary Qi gathering realm, so the possibility of being able to help him was slim.

However, Chen Yuan only needs to know it well and will not point it out.

Afterwards, Chen Yuan said goodbye and left, wandering around Wei County aimlessly while planning to start a new life simulation.

"System, I want to conduct a life simulation."

Chen Yuan said in his heart.

"Ding, life simulation begins..."

Suddenly, the system's voice rang.

Then, the screen appeared, and familiar words began to appear.

[On the first day, you choose to practice in Wei County. This time, you have no idea of ​​joining the Burning Flame Valley and plan to stay there for the rest of your life. 】

[On the second day, you met Zhou Shui and Zhou Xian. They were very grateful to you for helping them find the Zong family. From then on, they could live the life of a young master and a young lady, with no worries about food and clothing. 】

[On the 30th day, Zhou Xian came to you and said that Zhou Changshou said that she had amazing talents and wanted to send her to Xuanyuan Sect to see if she could join Xuanyuan Sect to practice. 】

[You couldn't help but frown when you heard Zhou Xian's words. You know very well that joining the sect at this time is destined to be on the battlefield in the future, which is really dangerous. 】

[For this reason, you met Zhou Changshou, the head of the Zhou family, and gave you some advice. However, Zhou Changshou did not listen to you, and Zhou Xian himself also expressed his willingness to join the Xuanyuan Sect, so you can't say anything more. 】

[On the 35th day, people from the Blue Bird Gang collided with you. You thought it was okay to destroy the Blue Bird Gang in advance. After you had this idea, the Bluebird Gang was wiped out that night. 】

[On November 1, 667 in the Dachu calendar, Zhou Xian successfully joined the Xuanyuan Sect and was accepted as a disciple by an elder of the Xuanyuan Sect. 】

[On January 5, 667 of the Great Chu calendar, you successfully comprehended the prototype of the sword intent. ]

[On July 10, 667 of the Great Chu calendar, you successfully comprehended the prototype of the red fire. ]

[On October 1, 668 of the Great Chu calendar, you knew that the world was about to change drastically. After reminding Bai Tianji, you said goodbye and left, and began to look for a mountain village to hide. ]

[On November 2, 668 of the Great Chu calendar, the world changed drastically. Various places began to revolt, and many sects and families were involved, forming a trend of overthrowing the Great Chu. ]

[On December 1, 668 of the Great Chu calendar, the Burning Flame Valley officially ended, and the world became more chaotic. In this regard, you ignored it, and practiced quietly in the mountain village. Finally, you comprehended one tenth of the sword intent and one tenth of the red fire realm, and merged them into the red fire sword intent. ]

[This perception speed is undoubtedly much slower than the last simulation, but you are already very satisfied. At least, you are safe now. 】

【On January 1, 670, the Great Chu was destroyed. Warlords from all over the country began to fight each other and attack each other in an attempt to seize the world. The world became more chaotic and the people were living in misery. 】

【On April 2, 670, a powerful mountain bandit fled into the mountain village and was killed by you. 】

【On July 3, 670, you successfully broke through to the fourth level of the Qi Condensation Realm. Although it took you nearly four years to break through a small realm, this is a change from the Qi Condensation Realm to the middle stage of the Qi Condensation Realm, and the improvement is still great. 】

【Of course, the most important thing is that you have broken the record for the time you have survived. This began to make you believe that surviving is the kingly way! 】
