In years of famine and drought, their village even rejected fatty meat.

Chapter 216 Amazing!

"It doesn't matter."

Chen Dao also knew that Xu Zhiwen had done his best in this matter, and he had no reason to be harsh on him.

However... since the Fire Pattern Fruit for Xiaoyuan's advancement is something he absolutely must obtain, after a little consideration, Chen Dao said, "I plan to go to Ding'an County soon."

Since he couldn't obtain the Fire Pattern Fruit through Xu Zhiwen's friend, Chen Dao had no choice but to go and get it himself: "I would like to ask the county magistrate for a favor and help me contact Magistrate Li."

Going to Ding'an County?

Xu Zhiwen stared intently. This Fire Pattern Fruit seemed to be very important to Chen Xiaoyou, otherwise he wouldn't have gone all the way to Ding'an County to obtain it.

After a moment of contemplation, Xu Zhiwen said, "There's no need to contact them. I will personally accompany you, young friend Chen, on this trip!"

"Oh?"

Chen Dao looked at Xu Zhiwen in surprise: "The county magistrate is also planning to go to Ding'an County?"

"Not bad!"

Xu Zhiwen smiled and said, "My friend is in such a predicament, so naturally I have to go and see him."

"Alright!"

Chen Dao nodded and said, "Then let's set it for three days from now. We'll depart for Ding'an County in three days."

After settling the matter, Chen Dao left Chen Da, Chen Jiang, and Chen Si at the Fuhu Boxing Gym, and then took Chen Cheng out of the Fuhu Boxing Gym and headed straight for Baicaotang.

Inside Baicaotang, Su Qiaoxi sat behind the counter, resting her chin on her hand, staring blankly out the door.

Since the decision was made to move to Chenjia Village, Grandpa sold off all the valuable medicinal herbs and items in the house, and Baicaotang was practically closed. As a result, there were far fewer customers coming to see him and buy medicine every day, and Su Qiaoxi naturally had nothing to do. She could only sit here every day, staring blankly at the empty shop.

"Miss Su."

At this moment, the sunlight streaming in from outside was partially blocked, and Chen Dao and Chen Cheng walked in one after the other.

A look of joy immediately appeared on Su Qiaoxi's face, and she stood up and said, "Young Master Chen, you've arrived!"

As she spoke, Su Qiaoxi stared intently at the little round object on Chen Dao's shoulder, and subconsciously stretched out her hands.

"Hey!"

Having spent a lot of time together, Xiao Yuan was also familiar with Su Qiaoxi. She quickly jumped off Chen Dao's shoulder and landed in Su Qiaoxi's arms.

"Xiaoyuan, it's been a long time!"

Su Qiaoxi gently rubbed Xiao Yuan's head, her face beaming with smiles.

Chen Dao glanced around and asked, "Miss Su, is Manager Su not home?"

"Here I am!"

Su Qiaoxi replied, "Grandpa is resting in the backyard!"

After speaking, Su Qiaoxi looked up at Chen Dao: "Young Master Chen, are you here to take us to Chen Family Village?"

"bingo!"

Chen Dao smiled and said, "The houses we built for you are now complete. I've come here today to take you to live in Chenjia Village!"

Upon hearing this, Su Qiaoxi's eyes lit up; she had been looking forward to moving to Chenjia Village for a long time.

At the same time, Su Shihua, who had heard the commotion in the backyard, also came over. He happened to hear what Chen Dao was saying, and his eyes lit up slightly.

Since making the decision to move to Chenjia Village, Su Shihua has been waiting for Chen Dao to fulfill his promise to take them to live in Chenjia Village and ensure the safety of the grandfather and granddaughter.

"Young friend Chen."

Su Shihua smiled and asked, "But have the houses in the village been completed?"

"Of course!"

Chen Dao replied, "I will return to Chenjia Village tomorrow. Manager Su and Miss Su can come back with me then."

"Good good!"

Su Shih-hua stroked his snow-white beard and smiled as he agreed to the matter.

Then, as if remembering something, Su Shihua suddenly asked, "The recent events in the city seem to have something to do with young friend Chen?"

Su Shihua was referring to a piece of news that had been circulating widely in Taiping County recently: the Yuan family had been wiped out by the county magistrate in conjunction with the owner of the Fuhu Boxing School and a young man surnamed Chen, which had caused quite a stir in the town.

According to rumors circulating in the city, the young man surnamed Chen was named Chen Dao, the same name as the Chen Dao in front of him. Su Shihua naturally connected the two names.

"To be honest, Manager Su."

Chen Dao spoke frankly: "The elimination of the Yuan family was a joint effort between me, Magistrate Xu, and Master Li!"

It turned out to be true!

Although he had long suspected that the young man surnamed Chen was Chen Dao, Su Shihua still couldn't help but tremble when he heard Chen Dao admit it!

Having lived in Taiping County for decades, Su Shihua was all too familiar with the power and influence of the Yuan family. Despite being just a pharmacy owner, Su Shihua was a respectable figure in the city.

But compared to the behemoth that is the Yuan family, Su Shihua is nothing. In fact, his pharmacy does not dare to violate the rules of the three major families and does not dare to sell medicinal materials used by martial artists. This shows the power of the Yuan family in Taiping County.

However… this very family was wiped out by this young man who looked no more than fifteen or sixteen years old, in alliance with the county magistrate and the owner of the Tiger-Taming Boxing Gym…

At this moment, Su Shihua felt that he couldn't understand the young man in front of him. So young, yet he had the strength to participate in such a world-shaking event as the extermination of the Yuan family. It was truly astonishing!

Of course, besides shock, Su Shihua was also overjoyed!

He has already chosen to move to Chenjia Village. Under these circumstances, the stronger Chen Dao is, the better. And as things stand now...

Chen Dao could wipe out the Yuan family, so protecting him and Su Qiaoxi would naturally be no difficult task!

Su Qiaoxi also glanced at Chen Dao, her eyes gleaming with surprise. Although she rarely went out, she had heard about the massacre of the entire Yuan family. However, what Su Qiaoxi didn't expect was...

The young man before me was actually one of the instigators who annihilated the Zhu family!

Thinking of this, Su Qiaoxi couldn't help but feel a little dazed. She recalled the first time she met Chen Dao. At that time, Chen Dao was wearing tattered hemp clothes and came to Baicaotang to ask for the Blood Coagulation Fruit, a medicinal material that most martial artists considered useless. He looked just like those poor people who were destitute and could only hope to become martial artists by using such low-grade medicinal materials as the Blood Coagulation Fruit...

In less than a few months, Chen Dao had transformed from a poor peasant boy in her eyes into a martial artist capable of annihilating the Yuan family...

The changes were so rapid that Su Qiaoxi was having trouble adapting.

Of course, Su Qiaoxi didn't think there was anything wrong with Chen Dao's extermination of the Yuan family; on the contrary, she found it very gratifying.

The Yuan family was extremely domineering. Not only did they forbid the sale of medicinal herbs for martial artists, but the sordid affairs within the clan were countless. Near the Hundred Herbs Hall, a woman was once defiled by the eldest son of the Yuan family. The eldest son of the Yuan family personally brought the woman back the next day, which was extremely humiliating to that family. However, due to the power of the Yuan family, that family dared not speak out against it...

Su Qiaoxi would only applaud the extermination of a family capable of such a thing, without feeling the slightest sympathy!
