Immortality Cultivation: I Farm in the System Space

Chapter 284: Chapter 266: Past Events

Upon hearing this voice, Lin Jing and the two with him were immediately overjoyed.

Zhang Yuan’s expression turned excited as he looked in the direction from which the voice had come.

In the distant sky, another figure was flying toward them on a sword, and its speed was very fast.

Soon, he arrived above the group.

“Master…”

“Patriarch…”

“Immortal Chenfan…”

“Immortal Chenfan…”

The group greeted the newcomer in unison.

This person was none other than Zhang Chenfan, the Zhang Family Patriarch.

Seeing the arrival of the Zhang Family Patriarch, Wu Cai Immortal’s brows involuntarily furrowed:

“Zhang Chenfan, is all of this your conspiracy?”

“Yes…”

The Zhang Family Patriarch didn’t refute but responded directly.

“It’s for the Five Elements Divine Art that I possess…” Wu Cai Immortal’s gaze turned hostile, fixing the Zhang Family Patriarch in a tight stare.

“The Five Elements Divine Art you possess and the Immortal Five Elements Technique I practice both come from the same source. Only when combined can the Five Elements Divine Art unleash its greatest power, and I have no reason not to be tempted.”

“But, besides the Five Elements Divine Art, I want something else…”

The Zhang Family Patriarch was very straightforward, without beating around the bush.

As soon as the words of the Zhang Family Patriarch fell, Wu Cai Immortal immediately burst into boisterous laughter:

“Hahaha…”

“Zhang Chenfan, you hypocrite, have you finally shown your true colors?”

The Zhang Family Patriarch frowned slightly and then countered:

“Am I hypocritical?”

“I never conceal what I want. On the contrary, it’s you who always likes to use deep schemes to mask your intentions.”

Nevertheless, Wu Cai Immortal laughed as if he had heard the joke of the century, laughing so hard that he almost couldn’t catch his breath:

“Haha…haha…hahaha…”

“You’re not hypocritical?”

“My dear elder brother, haven’t we spent so much time together? Don’t I know you?”

After laughing, Wu Cai Immortal looked toward the Zhang Family Patriarch, speaking in a wistful tone:

“Back in the Demonic Monster Sea, when we six brothers took an oath of brotherhood, those were indeed glorious times…”

“But what about later? On an expedition to the ruins, the fourth and the sixth brother perished within.”

“And the fifth brother was unfortunately killed by his enemies, and it was the second brother who avenged him.”

“Only the death of the second brother was unclear and unresolved.”

As he said that, Wu Cai Immortal looked at the Zhang Family Patriarch, his gaze incredibly earnest:

“Since you say you’re not hypocritical, then elder brother…”

“Today, I’ll call you ‘elder brother’ one more time!”

“Tell me the truth, did you kill the second brother or not.”

Wu Cai Immortal’s eyes were red with fury as he stared at the Zhang Family Patriarch, waiting for his response.

The Zhang Family Patriarch’s expression suddenly became desolate, and he sighed:

“Ah…”

“Third brother, I know that because of this matter, you’re dissatisfied with me, and even after all these years, you’ve harbored strong malice towards me.”

At this point, the Zhang Family Patriarch paused and then, looking straight at Wu Cai Immortal, he said outright:

“Your guess is correct, the second brother was indeed killed by me.”

Upon hearing the Zhang Family Patriarch’s confession, Wu Cai Immortal’s aura erupted violently, bursting forth from his body, creating a powerful wave of energy that spread outward…

Lin Jing and the other two were immediately blown back by this energy wave and had to quickly steady themselves by holding onto the nearby trees to remain upright.

Only the Zhang Family Patriarch and Zhang Wu were unaffected.

At the same time.

Wu Cai Immortal’s eyes blazed with unmasked fury as he kept a fixed stare on the Zhang Family Patriarch, and a faint five-colored radiance was also discernible in his hand.

However, facing the imminent attack from Wu Cai Immortal, the Zhang Family Patriarch made no move to defend himself. Instead, he continued:

“But what I want to say is…”

“I don’t regret killing the second brother!”

With tears in the corners of his eyes, Wu Cai Immortal laughed wildly at the sky:

“Hahaha…”

“You don’t regret it, you actually don’t regret it…”

“What a lack of regret…”

“You truly are our good big brother…”

Facing Wu Cai Immortal’s sarcasm, Zhang Family Patriarch appeared calm and composed as he continued to speak:

“Third brother, you surely are aware, when we first ventured into that relic, aside from our fourth and sixth brothers who died within.”

“Each of us obtained a Cultivation Technique.”

“For the two of us, they were the Immortal Five Elements Technique and the Five Elements Divine Art, and you know this, third brother.”

“At that time, for fairness’ sake, though I really wanted the Five Elements Divine Art, I still let you have it.”

“And the Cultivation Techniques of our second and fifth brothers were also not much different from ours.”

Wu Cai Immortal listened to Zhang Family Patriarch’s narration without retorting.

Clearly, what Zhang Family Patriarch was saying was the truth.

But at that moment, Zhang Family Patriarch suddenly changed the subject, asking Wu Cai Immortal:

“Third brother…”

“But do you know? Our second brother actually had another Cultivation Technique hidden up his sleeve.”

“It was because of that Cultivation Technique that I wanted to kill him.”

On hearing this, Wu Cai Immortal was initially stunned, and then he looked at Zhang Family Patriarch with an even more incredulous gaze:

“Why?”

“Do you mean to tell me you were willing to kill a brother you’ve lived with for so many years, just for a Cultivation Technique?”

“Zhang Chenfan, when did you become so greedy…”

Zhang Family Patriarch shook his head, then looking seriously at Wu Cai Immortal, he said:

“At that time, I wasn’t greedy…”

“The reason I did it was to save you, third brother…”

“Save me?”

Wu Cai Immortal frowned deeply upon hearing this.

Zhang Family Patriarch’s words baffled Wu Cai Immortal.

Seeing Wu Cai Immortal’s reaction, Zhang Family Patriarch knew that Wu Cai Immortal apparently didn’t believe him much.

So he opened his mouth and continued to explain:

“You said that fifth brother was killed by enemies seeking revenge, but did you see it with your own eyes?”

“No, right?”

“You say that second brother avenged fifth brother, but you also didn’t witness it with your own eyes…”

“All of this was told to you by second brother.”

Wu Cai Immortal fell silent after hearing this because indeed, that was the case.

These.

They were all told to him by his sworn second brother.

Out of trust for his second brother, Wu Cai Immortal had never doubted him.

Zhang Family Patriarch watched Wu Cai Immortal become silent, and then he cut to the chase:

“Then, let me tell you the truth.”

“Fifth brother was actually killed by second brother.”

“You trusted second brother, so you never had any doubts.”

“But I, conducted my own investigation.” No sooner had Zhang Family Patriarch finished his sentence than Wu Cai Immortal looked completely incredulous, shaking his head repeatedly:

“Impossible…”

“Absolutely impossible, why would second brother want to kill fifth brother.”

“There’s no reason, why would he kill fifth brother, tell me…”

Clearly, Wu Cai Immortal was shocked by the ‘truth’ that Zhang Family Patriarch had revealed.

Zhang Family Patriarch then continued:

“Because, the Cultivation Technique that second brother had secretly kept was a Demonic Technique.”

“That Demonic Technique could absorb others’ Cultivation and transfer it to oneself…”

“Think about it…”

“With fifth brother’s cleverness, plus a hundred years of experience braving the Demonic Monster Sea, how could he be so easily ambushed by enemies?”

“For him, only someone exceedingly close, who would be caught completely off guard, could easily approach him and make their move when he was unsuspecting.”

“And among us brothers, the one closest to fifth brother…”

“Was none other than second brother!”
