Chapter 195: Son, We Also Have A Family Heirloom
To report the situation in the town to his superiors.
The long-lost Ghost Ride organization had reappeared!
According to Chu Weiliang’s final explanation, it had been nearly a hundred years since any members of the Ghost Ride appeared.
Of course, this “disappearance’ referred to the kind of information that was exposed and known by the government or large-scale sects.
No one knew whether Ghost Ride had been operating in secret or not.
In the past hundred years, no one had seen a single member of Ghost Ride. Or rather, all those who had were dead.
Asa result, many people thought that the organization, Ghost Ride, had been wiped out.
However, as He Quanshui’s identity as a member of Ghost Ride was exposed, this ancient organization that had existed for thousands of years emerged once again.
As soon it did, it caused a large-scale massacre.
Massacred an entire functional town!
Had it not been for the fact that Yu Qi happened to be invited to celebrate the new year in town,
and Su Jingxing rushed over in time to save the day after overhearing He Quanshui’s conversation when he came to pick up corpses,
the thousands of people in Ranch Town would have been wiped out tonight.
Now that the problem was resolved, Su Jingxing didn’t linger around the scene, despite his surprise with Ghost Ride.
Flying into the air, he looked down at the town from above to make sure all dangers were eliminated.
Walking through the air, Su Jingxing executed his lightness skill, Eight Steps Rising Dragon, and returned to Qinghe City.
“Cough cough.”
At the edge of the ruins of Ranch Town, Yu Qi was half-Ineeling on the ground, coughing up blood. Shock and doubt were spread on his pale face.
“Are you alright, Old Yu? How are you holding up?”
Xiong Qifan’s anxious voice was heard.
As he turned the corner, his figure was revealed. He shouted as he ran.
He only stopped calling out when he was beside Yu Qi. His expression was grim. ‘Damn it. The culprit was ruthless.”
Yu Qi had been struck in the knee and couldn’t stand, let alone walk.
However, he did not complain. Instead, he smiled. “Cough… !m considered okay. The others are all dead, including the culprit! They created Corpse Puppets and massacred civilians. They deserved to die!”
“That’s all thanks to you too,” said Xiong Qifan, heaving a sigh of relief.
“Me? Yu Qi was speechless as he asked, “You don’t think I beat back the enemy and Killed the culprit, do you?”
“Huh? Was it someone else?” asked Xiong Qifan in surprise.
“Of course.”
Supported by Xiong Qifan, Yu Qi stood up on one foot.
Then, Xiong Qifan picked him up in one hand and carried him home like he was carrying a child.
“Someone else killed the murderer and saved the town.”
Yu Qi hopped as he shared, “He’s very powerful. A conservative estimate would be third-grade! Without him, I would really have turned into a corpse.”
“Is that so? Looks like we got lucky. A third-grade martial artist just so happened to be passing by this town,”
Xiong Qifan didn’t think much and replied in surprise.
“Yeah.”
Yu Qi sighed.
There was something he did not mention. The person who had saved him was someone very familiar. It felt like he had seen him somewhere before?
The two of them chatted as they returned to Xiong Qifan’s small courtyard.
Along the way, they responded to the corpses they encountered and the crying survivors with silence.
There was no solution to this unexpected catastrophe to begin with.
And they had been lucky tonight; not many had died, perhaps a hundred or two.
Majority of the people were saved by hiding in the basement in time.
Now that the danger had been eliminated, they came out to help save others and take care of the corpses.
The Corpse Puppets that were still alive, dismembered and snarling, especially, were incinerated immediately.
All deceased had their information registered at the first moment and were incinerated on the spot.
It was late at night, and it would take too long to wait for the Corpse Collection Team to arrive.
Asa precaution, they had to be incinerated them immediately. The ashes could be preserved for subsequent farewell ceremonies.
Of course, the necessary calls were still made.
As soon as the City Guard Office, Martial Suppression Office of Qinghe City, and the nearby Prefecture Army received the calls, they rushed to Ranch Town.
After returning home, Xiong Qifan quickly pulled out the knives for Yu Qi and gave him treatment.
The entire family who had been hiding in the basement also came out to help. Some of them boiled water while others took medicine.
Yu Qi was put on the bed after his condition was stabilized and his wounds were bandaged. Only then did everyone heave a sigh of relief.
“Come with me, son,”
Xiong Qifan’s old father called Xiong Qifan over to followhim.
The two of them entered the old man’s bedroom.
“What’s the matter, Dad?” asked Xiong Qifan, closing the door at his father’s signal. “Is anything wrong?”
Instead of answering, the old man took out an old trunk from under the bed.
Then, as he opened it, he said, “I was planning to wait a few more years. After all, my body is doing fine. Let’s not talk about anything more but 10 years is definitely no problem.”
“Um…”
Xiong Qifan blushed with shame. “Dad, why are you saying all this out of the blue? Relax. 20 or even 30 years wouldn’t be a problem, let alone 10 years!”
‘mow.
The old master replied calmly, “That’s not what I want to talk about. Besides, 10 or 30 years is the same to me.”
*..Then what are you trying to say?” asked Xiong Qifan with a smile, not daring to talk back.
“have something for you.”
The old man took out a package from the opened box and unwrapped it layer by layer.
Finally, a palm-sized, delicate wooden box was revealed.
“Tm old, and I’ll take however much time I have left. I thought I could keep it for a dozen more years, but what happened tonight made me realize that I can’t drag this on any longer.”
The old man opened the wooden box and took out a well-preserved piece of beeswax. Handing it to Xiong Qifan, he said solemnly, “Son, we also have a family heirloom. This is it!”
“This piece of beeswax has been passed down in our family for tens of generations and has never been lost.
“The ancestors have left behind their last words: the family heirloom must never be shared with anyone, not even to your wives or children!
“One can only choose the most reliable descendant on his deathbed and relay the information.
“This descendant can be a son or a daughter.
“The one I have is from my great-grandmother.
“Tm handing it to you today. I hope you keep it safe.
“Ican tell you that this family heirloom contains a secret, but it has been hundreds of years, and no one has discovered what it is.
“After you take it, you can try to do some simple cracking, but remember not to go overboard. Otherwise, if you spoil it, I won’t let you off even if I die and become a ghost!”
At the end of his speech, the old man glared at Xiong Qifan sternly.
Xiong Qifan was completely dumbfounded!
A family heirloom?
Beeswax?!
Their family owned a piece of beeswax heirloom?
Beeswax!
Family heirloom!
The combination of these two elements made Xiong Qifan’s heart race uncontrollably.
Slowly, his shocked face flushed red.
The old man frowned. ‘What’s wrong with you? It’s a family heirloom, but you dont have to be so agitated..”
swish!
Xiong Qifan grabbed the beeswax from his hand as if he was snatching it from him. Holding it in his hand, he injected true energy into it.
Then, he held it under the light…
