I Am Born With A Sliver Spoon

“Okay, thank you very much!” Xiao Yan nodded and took a sip of juice. He proceeded to dig into the food, but looked visibly nervous and cautious of his surroundings.

Chen Hao grinned and said, “You received two million for the fly whisk, didn’t you? Why are you still mistreating yourself like that? Piaopiao told me that you were having buns and salted vegetables when she found you.”

“I don’t dare to touch that money. If you guys want it, I can give you!” said Xiao Yan.

Chen Hao smiled and shook his head. “We don’t want your money. We just want to ask you about the fly whisk. Where did you get it? Besides, it doesn’t look like you went to the auction on your own accord.”

Xiao Yan pondered a moment, raised his head and said, “I’m sorry, but I can’t tell you guys about it. If you want the money, I’ll give you the money. I’m just doing this on someone else’s order!” Xiao Yan was so startled that he did not dare to eat any more.

“Brother, you don’t have to be so nervous! We don’t mean anything else. Let’s do it this way then. I’ll rephrase my question: When you received the fly whisk, was there anything else or any message that came along with it?” Chen Hao asked cautiously.

Xiao Yan hesitated for a while before he finally answered Chen Hao’s question. “A friend from the South is coming!”

“Hey, what’s that supposed to mean? My master is asking you something important, and yet you keep talking about irrelevant stuff!” Shen Piaopiao rebuked angrily.

“A friend from the South; did he mean by the Chen Family from the Southern Region?” Chen Hao asked with a smile.

Upon hearing that, Xiao Yan stared at Chen Hao, his eyes almost bulging out. “Dude, seeing as you know about the Chen Family from the Southern Region, is your surname Chen?” Xiao Yan became ecstatic.

Hence, he came all the way to Ji Province to personally deliver a valuable gift to Chen Hao as a request to be the latter’s servant. Although Master Ghost could predict the future, the future was not a fixed variable, and it was always subjected to change. He did not know what kind of danger lay ahead. Hence, he changed his name, and concealed his identity in order to escape his enemies who intended to kill him. At the end of his letter, Master Ghost brought up

Hence, Master Ghost took it upon him to search for magical relics in order to help him improve his cultivation base. But unbeknownst to Master Ghost, Chen Hao’s current cultivation base had exceeded that of a normal human’s limit. Nonetheless, the diagram reminded Chen Hao of something else—Master Ghost
