Strange Cards

Chapter 202 Descendants of an Old Friend

After a moment of excitement, the people from the south put Shigure down, and Fengchuan released the domain after recovering some of his energy.

Shi Yu looked at Feng Chuan, but Feng Chuan's next words stunned Shi Yu.

"Shigure, I have a guess."

"Your moves clearly show the influence of Qi Wu's martial arts style and Liu An's ghost-slaying techniques."

"Logically speaking, these two techniques are difficult to combine, but you managed to do it. Moreover, I saw a style that I had only ever seen in my old friend."

"Xiao Tian's former steward of the Toki family in Kyoto."

"But my old friend died twelve years ago, along with a little guy he was always with, in Nanhai City."

"My style is a school created by Xiao Tian himself. I'm quite familiar with that guy, so I wouldn't mistake him."

"Your surname is Shi, you know Xiao Tian's style, and you are a hunter from Nanhai City, the city where the Southern Base is located."

"You are an orphan in the hunter's identity, but if I'm not mistaken, you are the young master of the Shi family, the young master Shi Yu who died twelve years ago."

How do you know these things?

Shi Yu conjured a black hole in his hand, drawing the evil blade back, and his hand was already on the hilt.

Feng Chuan simply smiled and said calmly.

"My grandfather was the previous chief hunter, and my grandfather Feng Yan and the Shi family's grandfather were comrades-in-arms on the battlefield, so I naturally know that."

"Xiao Tian and I are close friends despite our age difference. When I met him, he was already in his thirties, and now I am in my fifties."

"I have never forgotten the style of martial arts that Xiao Tian created, because it is the only style of martial arts that does not require any talent. It is something that will succeed as long as you work hard."

"I know a part of my own style. Xiao Tian once said that he would teach me the whole style when I grew up, but he broke his promise."

"After you disappeared twelve years ago, your grandfather has been looking for you ever since, and even my grandfather has been sending people to look for you."

"But I don't know why I couldn't find any news about you until after you joined the Hunters. I saw that your surname was Shi, so I kept an eye on you. Today I finally confirmed that you are the child who went missing twelve years ago."

After hearing this, Shi Yu slowly lowered his hand from the Fiend Blade and then said.

"How is the old man...?"

Feng Chuan shook his head.

"Not too good, but I'm still alive."

He said that as long as he lives, he must find you and bring you back, and the reason he is still alive at the age of 100 is because of this thought of finding you.

"I know roughly about the Shi family's affairs through my father, and I have nothing to say about your parents."

"Pure scum, and their three daughters are too."

"However, there are still people in the Shi family who love you, namely your grandfather."

"From the outside, the head of the Shi family is Shi Tianming, but the real power still lies in the hands of your grandfather."

"Even if he has lived for a hundred years, he will still deal with the Shi family's affairs. He said that your things will not fall into the hands of that good-for-nothing. Even if the Shi family is torn down, he will not raise that good-for-nothing son."

"Shi Tianming also caused trouble a few times, but your old man just kicked him out."

"I have to go now. I need to go back and tell my father that you're back."

"Everyone, you can leave now. I'll arrange the rest when we get to the Hunter's Headquarters tomorrow."

Before leaving, Fengchuan turned his head and looked at Shiyu.

"If there's still a chance, go home and see your grandfather, even if you hate the Shi family."

"Your parents and sisters aren't good family members, but your grandfather definitely is."

After Fengchuan finished speaking, he left. Shiyu felt weak all over after hearing Fengchuan's words, but Baiyu quickly caught her.

"Everyone, I'm not going back to the courtyard house tonight."

"I need to go out and be alone."

As she spoke, Shigure activated her Mist Crow Technique and left. Just as Liu An was about to say something, Gu Yue stopped her and shook her head.

……

Late at night, Shiyu sat on a huge rock by the sea, staring blankly at the sea under the night sky.

Having learned Shiyu's location from the Right Emperor, Baiyu slowly approached and gently lay down behind Shiyu, embracing her from behind.

In fact, Shi Yu already knew when Bai Yu arrived, after all, the gardenia scent on Bai Yu was unique.

"White Rain".

Shi Yu said softly, and Bai Yu pressed her small face against Shi Yu's face.

"What's wrong, Master?"

"Do you think I should go back?"

"Go back to the master's former home?"

"Um."

Shiyu nodded gently, the sea breeze making the strands of hair on her forehead flutter messily.

"I really want to go back and see my grandfather, but I'm afraid."

"My hatred for the Shi family runs deep. I'm afraid I won't be able to control myself and will fall into hell once again."

"I don't understand why they love an adopted son more than their biological son, why is that?"

"But a hunter's bottom line is not to bully the weak and not to kill innocent people, but I'm afraid I won't be able to control myself and will violate that bottom line."

After thinking for a moment, Bai Yu said softly.

"Master, do whatever you want. At least no matter the consequences, Baiyu will always stay by your side."

"Even if Bai Yu leaves the hunter, she will always stay by her master's side. At worst, Bai Yu will go to work to support her master."

"Master has raised Bai Yu for so long, it's time for Bai Yu to take care of Master."

"Bai Yu and Master are family, aren't they?"

"yes."

"We are family."

As Shi Yu listened to Bai Yu's words, she suddenly felt much more at ease. Shi Yu finally understood that she was no longer alone as before.

Even if Shigure betrays the whole world now, Shigure will know that there will always be a white-haired cat-eared girl by his side, accompanying him forever.

"Thank you, Bai Yu."

"I've made up my mind, I'm going back to see Grandpa."

"I also promised Uncle Xiao that I would definitely go back no matter what."

"We will always be family."

"Um."

"Bai Yu and her master will always be family, forever."

……

Inside the headquarters' Ghost Suppression Prison, several furtive figures sneaked into the lowest level of the prison and forcibly broke one of the seals.

After the seal was broken, an extremely terrifying ghostly howl rang out, and the faces of these figures were all filled with fanaticism.

After all, this place holds a former Asura, now a vengeful ghost.

After the seal was broken, a huge cloud of mist appeared inside. Then, a giant hand reached out from the mist and made an extremely eerie sound.

"I'm finally out."
