Rebirth of the Urban Immortal Cultivator

CHAPTER 16

When her grandfather was young and first started his company, Xiao's grandfather and Xiaoqin's grandfather were partners.

By then, not only had Mr. Wei become a powerful business magnate, but all of his old friends had also become powerful and influential individuals. Even though most of them were already retired, their influences were still huge.

The Xiao Family was also a powerful household in the city of Yanjin.

Brother Xiao was one of the elites among the second and the third generations of all the prominent families in Yanjin.

When Wei Ziqin was just a little girl, she had met Brother Xiao when she followed her grandfather to visit his old friends. From then on, Brother Xiao had left a deep impression on the girl's mind.

However, even though Brother Xiao was the direct offspring of the family, he would have to bow respectfully to the reticent middle-aged man who accompanied his grandfather and call him "Uncle Wu." It was evident to even a young girl that Mr. Wu held a respectable status in the Xiao Family.

"Grandpa, are you hoping to rope in that boy close to you like the Xiao family did to uncle Wu?" Wei Ziqin asked curiously.

"Haha, you think too little of your grandmaster." Wei Fu smiled and then shook his head. "My old buddy had saved Mr. Wu's family once, and therefore, Mr. Wu was willing to serve House Xiao. Otherwise, however powerful the Xiao Family was, they would not be able to have the servitude of a Transcendent Master."

"I have given him the mansion as a token of goodwill. We are the first great family he had ever met, and we shouldn't pass up this opportunity to befriend him." Wei Fu lolled in a rocking chair and fanned his long beard with a Chinese hand fan. He looked like an astute strategist who had everything under his control.

Wei Ziqin nodded. Although her grandfather's real intention still escaped her, she at least had gained a much better understanding of Chen Fan and his abilities.

She would never have thought that this annoying boy was as powerful as the person who impressed her father, grandfather and even Brother Xiao.

"Plus, he is so young. Even if he were not as powerful as Ye Nantian or Mr. Wu, he would surpass their ability one day." Mr. Wei heaved a sigh as he marveled at the infinite potential of this young man.

"You mean, he can achieve the Immortal State?" Wei Ziqin asked incredulously as disbelief flickered in her eyes.

It was hard for her to imagine the power of the Immortal State after knowing the incredible power of a Transcendent Master.

"Unbelievable! Will he be able to fly in the sky and tunnel through the earth?"

"Immortal State?" The old man let out a quiet laugh."We don't even know if such a thing exists or not. I always believed that that was nothing but high tales."

Suddenly, as if something had caught the elderly man's attention. He looked over his shoulder into the distance as a strange emotion flashed across his face.

The next day, Chen Fan received a phone call. To his surprise, it was from Jiang Churan.

Jiang Churan called to check on him and see if he was alright after last night's ordeal. She also invited him over to join her and two friends for lunch.

Chen Fan declined the invitation as politely as he could.

Although he didn't appreciate the way those girls had treated him last night, as a Celestial Lord, he would not care about those frivolous matters. He didn't want to join them for lunch because he didn't want to be bored again.
