I Am Born With A Sliver Spoon

I Am Born With A Silver Spoon Novel Chapter 738

To everyone’s surprise, Shen Piaopiao started howling like a dog.

The people going down the mountain caught sight of the act. With tears in her eyes, Shen Piaopiao imitated the barking of a dog to a T.

This was not what Chen Hao had anticipated.

He thought that Shen Piaopiao was a spoiled, wealthy girl who cared greatly about her own reputation. He did not expect her to be so willing to humble herself.

Truth be told, it was an absolutely humiliating act. Even Chen Hao himself could not be able to stoop that low, which was exactly why he challenged Shen Piaopiao to do so in order to get her off his back.

“I’ve imitated the barking of a dog. Are you going to fulfil your promise of accepting me as your disciple?”

Shen Piaopiao stood in front of Chen Hao once again.

“I…”

Chen Hao hesitated for a bit.

Shen Tiangang held his breath as well, waiting for Chen Hao’s decision.

“Fine!”

Chen Hao nodded his head reluctantly.

“Quick, Piaopiao, get down on your knees and pay your respects to Master Chen!” exclaimed Shen Tiangang.

His granddaughter was all grown up. After hearing Master Chen’s outrageous proposal which made things difficult for her, Shen Tiangang thought that his granddaughter would get into a fit of rage and offend Master Chen.

Unexpectedly, his granddaughter was quick-witted and did exactly what was instructed.

Thus, Master Chen had no choice but to take her in as his disciple.

It was only a small price to pay for the Shen Family to be acquainted with an expert like him.

It was certainly their greatest blessing.

“Master Chen, please accept my utmost respects for you!”

Shen Piaopiao knelt on the ground, kowtowing respectfully. She even served Chen Hao a cup of scented tea.

Am I really fated to be with this girl?

Chen Hao lamented inside his heart.

Meanwhile, Li Tiedan stood at the side, not daring to utter a single word.

After asking him about the incident involving that Young Miss, Li Tiedan explained everything to Chen Hao, who only chuckled after hearing his explanation.

As it turned out, Li Tiedan stumbled across a ghost when he went hiking in the mountains a few months earlier. Ever since then, the ghost ordered him around; to be specific, it had instructed him to wait for the arrival of a person, who happened to be Chen Hao.

Chen Hao was absolutely certain that Gunainai was Zhu, the puppet who had been giving him a lot of instructions after Master Ghost left.

It seemed like she was fine after all.

As he explained the entire situation, Li Tiedan led Chen Hao to a yard.

From there, Chen Hao caught sight of Zhu.

“Chen Hao, I did not expect us to meet again so soon!”

Zhu, the puppet made from verdant bamboos, fixed her gaze on Chen Hao from inside the house.

“I thought something bad happened to you when the Dragon Mountain caught fire,” said Chen Hao.

He recalled the night when he was stalked by Yunqing.

“You are right, my body was burned to ashes. Haha, but I am a puppet. I have no specific needs for my body, because I will continue to exist as long as my consciousness recovers after a period of time!” Zhu explained.

“Master Ghost must have an uncanny ability to be able to create you. Did he predict that I would return?” asked Chen Hao.

“Yes, he did. He was the one who instructed me to wait for you here. After that, he wants us to go and look for him; to be more precise, we need to rescue him,” said Zhu.

“Rescue him?”

“Yes, Master Ghost had foreseen that he would be facing a big crisis in the coming future. Yunqing’s visit was only the beginning of the crisis; the real disaster might already be underway. Also, he mentioned that his life is in your hands!” said Zhu.

“Alright, do you have any idea where Master Ghost is right now? It would be great if I can help out with anything,” said Chen Hao. “The reason I came here is because there is something I wish to discuss

with Master Ghost as well!”

“All I know is that Master Ghost has gone to the Ji Province. If we want to look for him, that should be the best place to start! It is my master’s hometown. He did not tell you where he was back then because he was afraid that your presence would disrupt the initial timeline!” explained Zhu.

“Alright, there’s no time to lose. Let’s head to the Ji Province as soon as possible!”

Chen Hao nodded.

Now, every single one of his family members was missing.

His grandfather’s identity was uncertain; Ziyan’s whereabouts were unknown—even crossing worlds to locate Tongxin was not an easy feat. From NôvelDrama.Org.

Since Uncle Chen was here now, he had to seize this opportunity to resolve all of his worries.

Chen Hao had to find Master Ghost without wasting any more time. For now, he was the only one who could help solve some of these mysteries.

“So, are you going to follow me?” Chen Hao asked Zhu.

“Of course! My mission can only be accomplished after I’ve helped you locate the Master Ghost. For you to conveniently bring me around, there is a pearl concealed within my body. You can store me inside a dainty doll and bring me along with you like an accessory.” Zhu suggested.

“Alright!” replied Chen Hao.

……

“You’re heading to the Ji Province, Master Chen?”

Shen Tiangang was visibly taken aback when Chen Hao let him in on his plan.

“Yes, is there a problem?”

“Hehe, not at all, Master Chen! Our Shen Family lives in the Ji Province. If you don’t mind, we can provide shelter for you!” said Shen Tiangang delightfully.

If Master Chen agreed, his relationship with him would surely get closer by leaps and bounds.

This would be a blessing to the Shen Family!

“Why don’t you stay at our family home, Master. This way, I can show my respects to you as well.” Shen Piaopiao pleaded.

Master Ghost’s Taoist Temple was located at the Dragon Mountain. Unfortunately, it seemed like Shen Tiangang, who lived in Ji Province, did not know where Master Ghost was at.

Staying at the Shen Family’s residence was not a bad idea anyway. After all, Chen Hao would have to find a place to rest before he could continue locating Master Ghost’s whereabouts.

What was more, the Shen Family was a force to be reckoned with over there. With their presence, he could save tons of his energy as well.

At this moment, Ziyan’s whereabouts were unknown and his family was missing as well. Thus, he was desperate to meet Master Ghost as soon as possible.

“Fine, I’ll stay at your place then!”

Chen Hao nodded.

However, when he looked over at Shen Tiangang, it seemed like he wanted to say something.

Shen Tiangang looked very emotional. All of a sudden, there was a surge in his Qi and blood. He vomited a mouthful of blood before collapsing on the floor, his entire body convulsing.

“Huh? Grandpa!”

Shen Piaopiao yelled out in a panic.

The middle-aged man swiftly rummaged through his pockets to look for some medication.

“Master, what is happening to my grandfather?” Shen Piaopiao glanced at Chen Hao with a pleading look.

“He has suffered internal injuries before, which are now affecting his organs. That is why his Qi is not flowing. There was a sudden surge in his blood and Qi, causing his organs to implode,” Chen Hao explained calmly.

He had actually noticed this problem earlier, and was planning on asking Shen Tiangang the reason for such severe injuries in his organs after they had finished their task.

Chen Hao did not expect that by agreeing to stay with them, he had made Shen Tiangang so emotional that it triggered his illness.

“Master Chen, you are really superb indeed. I have sustained some heavy injuries before!” Shen Tiangang confessed, still coughing up blood.

Chen Hao lifted a finger, enveloping Shen Tiangang’s acupoints.

It was strange indeed. Shen Tiangang could sense the feeling of his body tearing apart vanishing in an instant!

“Master Chen…”

He was amazed. As he looked into Chen Hao’s eyes, the respect he had for Chen Hao could not be described with words.

Master Chen was so young, yet he had such amazing cultivation …

“Your injuries were caused by some sort of vital energy. It does not seem like the work of an Inner Energy or a secret technique, but simply pure vital energy. However, there are only a handful of people in this world who possess such energy. Who did you stumble across?” Chen Hao asked, a frown appearing on his face.
