C1383 Some Paths Are Destined to be Impossible to Turn Back

In the temple's grand hall, Shen Baichuan was staring at the old man in front of him. More accurately, he was staring at his father, Old Master Shen - Shen Guorong!    

    

Initially, Shen Baichuan thought that Shen Guorong was dead and was no longer around. However, after he was kidnapped, he realized that he was wrong!    

    

Not only was he not dead, he was also alive and well.    

    

At the same time, he hid in the dark and quietly watched everyone attack Xue Chendong. He looked like a fish and a clam fighting each other. Not only did he want to reap the benefits, he also wanted to attack Xue Chendong behind his back.    

    

Moreover, he was the first target.    

    

After knowing all of this, Shen Baichuan's heart felt as if it had been hammered by a heavy hammer. His heart was shattered into pieces.    

    

However, Shen Guorong was his father. He clearly knew everything, but he couldn't tell Xue Chen. Otherwise, if Xue Chen found out that he had been tricked by Shen Guorong, he wouldn't let this matter rest.    

    

Shen Guorong's plan was very good. Everyone in Shen Family knew that Old Master Shen had bribed everyone in the hospital to lie to them, so no one suspected that he was faking his death.    

    

At the same time, Shen Guorong was afraid that the matter would fall, so he killed everyone. Moreover, he killed everyone without making any sound. No one could prove that he was dead, and no one could tell that he was still alive. He was faking his death.    

    

Moreover, Shen Guorong used Xue Chen to help him take charge of the Shen Family, and at the same time, he supported the third generation of the Shen Family. Meanwhile, he was hiding in the dark and thinking about how to deal with Xue Chen.    

    

In this way, even if he faked his death, because of Xue Chen, those people wouldn't dare to attack the Shen Family. If Xue Chen died in the future, he would still be alive, and the Shen Family wouldn't dare to act recklessly.    

    

It wasn't an exaggeration to say that Shen Guorong's plan was going well.    

    

"Are you trying to expose me?" Shen Guorong looked at Shen Baichuan and asked.    

    

"You have joined forces with Zuo Cheng'ao. You are already fighting with the tiger. Plus, Zuo Cheng'ao killed Second Brother. He..."    

    

"Of course I will take revenge, but not now."    

    

"Not now?" Shen Baichuan laughed coldly. "I have already told Xue Chen that Zuo Cheng'ao will take action. When Xue Chen goes to find Zuo Cheng'ao, I will see how long you can hide."    

    

"I have guessed it." Shen Guorong said calmly, "Zhenye is making trouble. With Xue Chen's temper, he will most likely use force to intimidate everyone and make them not dare to act rashly. You will say that Zuo Cheng'ao will help Zhenye..."    

    

"But how can Xue Chen believe you? He will investigate!"    

    

"Since you have guessed it, then you should know that when Xue Chen makes trouble for Zuo Cheng'ao, your good days will come to an end!"    

    

"I know." Shen Guorong said neither lightly nor heavily, "But, Baichuan, although I designed all of this, you are the biggest push."    

    

"Zhiwen's death, Zhenye's current danger, and your wife Xiuwenn's current helplessness were all caused by you..."    

    

"What does this have to do with me? If it wasn't for you..."    

    

"Yes, if it wasn't for me, none of this would have happened. But if you didn't call Xue Chen for help, would all of this have happened?" Shen Guorong said indifferently, "And if you cooperate with me, then all of this can be avoided, right?"    

    

"But you don't cooperate with me at all!" Shen Guorong's voice suddenly became heavier.    

    

"Cooperating with you?" Shen Baichuan's face slowly revealed a mocking expression. "Cooperate with you to kill your own son-in-law?"    

    

"If that's the case, I really can't do it."    

    

"I won't kill Xue Chen..."    

    

"Yes, you won't kill Xue Chen, but Xue Chen won't give you the Qin Imperial Seal. Or rather, you won't be able to obtain the secret of the Qin Imperial Seal even if you die. Will you still not kill him?" Shen Baichuan said with a miserable face, "You can even abandon your own son, why would you care about a grandson-in-law?"    

    

"It's fine if you lie to my brother. Do you think I will believe you?"    

    

Shen Guorong sighed. "If that's the case, why did you come to me? Aren't you afraid that I will attack you again?"    

    

"Whatever!" Shen Baichuan said heavily. He said, "If you want to attack me, I will not show mercy. Moreover, you better trap me. Otherwise, if I leave or escape with injuries, Xue Chen will only want to find you even more."    

    

"It seems like you have made up your mind?"    

    

"Dad, I am advising you one last time. Turn back. When Xue Chen does not know anything, Martial God should turn back before he makes a move." Shen Baichuan begged, "When Martial God's Dragon Slaying Chess Game is ready, all of you who want to deal with Xue Chen and those who want to fight the Qin Imperial Seal will die without a burial ground."    

    

"What is Martial God doing in the dark?" Shen Guorong immediately became alert and stared at Shen Baichuan.    

    

"Dad, do you really think Martial God doesn't care about Xue Chen?" Shen Baichuan said with a bitter face, "That is his nephew, his biological nephew. Martial God has never married anyone and has no children."    

    

"He raised Xue Chen with one hand. He treated Xue Chen as his own son. Do you think that Martial God will really sit in the dark and watch you kill Xue Chen one by one?"    

    

"I have never thought of that before." Shen Guorong denied it. "Martial God will do something, but I don't know what he will do."    

    

"But I think Martial God is after something big. Otherwise, he wouldn't have done so little in such a long time."    

    

"You don't need to try to trick me. I won't tell you anything." Shen Baichuan stared at Shen Guorong and said helplessly.    

    

"Baichuan..."    

    

"Don't waste your time." Shen Baichuan interrupted Shen Guorong directly. "Dad, I advise you to turn back. Now that Xue Chen doesn't know you are still alive, it is impossible for Yang to betray you. I will not tell Xue Chen either."    

    

"Let's just pretend that we don't know anything. Since you are still alive, let's live a peaceful life. After a hundred years, we will definitely..."    

    

"Shen Baichuan, do you want to curse me to death?" Shen Guorong interrupted Shen Baichuan. "Since I have already done it, I will not stop. If you want to tell Xue Chen, go ahead and tell him. The precondition is that he can still find me."    

    

"Are you really not going to turn back?"    

    

"When I stepped onto this road, I knew it was a road of no return. There was no possibility of turning back." Shen Guorong sighed softly and said, "That's true. Among your brothers, only your big brother knows the truth!"    

    

"I don't want all of you to participate. The Shen Family needs to exist..."    

    

"Don't pretend to be here!" Shen Baichuan interrupted Shen Guorong impatiently. He looked at the hypocritical Shen Guorong and said, "Do you know that you are not as good as Bai Guiqi?"    

    

"Bai Guiqi at least dares to put everything on the surface. Even if he wants to deal with Xue Chen, he can do anything to Xue Chen."    

    

"He is a real villain!"    

    

"You are a hypocrite!" Bai Guiqi said. Shen Baichuan immediately took over and said, "Hypocrites are much more terrifying than despicable people!"    

    

"Don't be so full of yourself. If Bai Guiqi hadn't been exposed, he would have done better than me."    

    

"I'm asking you one last time. Are you going to turn back or not?"    

    

"There are some paths. Once you take a step out, you can't take it back. You either succeed or die." Shen Guorong looked at Shen Baichuan and said seriously, "I can't turn back. You don't have to worry about it."    

    

After hearing Shen Guorong's firm words again, Shen Baichuan's face slowly showed an unprecedented bitterness. "Take care of yourself!"    

    

With that, Shen Baichuan turned around and was about to leave.    

    

Just as Shen Baichuan turned around, Shen Guorong suddenly spoke. "Baichuan, don't blame Xiuwenn. I forced her to do this. She didn't want to do this."    

    

Shen Baichuan stopped for a moment after hearing Shen Guorong's words. He then lifted his foot and walked out of the door.    

    

After Shen Baichuan left, Shen Guorong slowly closed his eyes and turned the prayer beads in his hand. He was mumbling something. He didn't know if he was reciting scriptures or mumbling something, or perhaps he was praying to Buddha.    

    

It wasn't that he didn't want to stay with Shen Baichuan, but he wasn't sure if he could stay this time. At the same time, with Shen Baichuan's temper, he had never fought a battle that he wasn't confident in. Now that he had found him, if Shen Guorong acted rashly, he would really be run away by Shen Baichuan. Then, it would really be like what Shen Baichuan said. He would be in big trouble!    

    

Therefore, he let Shen Baichuan leave this place.    

    

After Shen Baichuan walked out of the Great Hall of Heroes, he slowly turned around and looked at the majestic Great Hall of Heroes. He took a deep breath and sighed heavily. "Do you really think there is an immortality medicine in this world? Do you really think there is an immortal pill in this world and a secret prescription to extend one's life?"    

    

Shen Baichuan couldn't help but laugh as soon as he finished speaking. His laughter was very ear-piercing, and it made people fearful from the bottom of their hearts.    

    

Shen Baichuan had already guessed the reason why Shen Guorong wanted the Qin Imperial Seal. It was because Qin Shihuang wanted to live forever. Although Qin Shihuang was dead, who knew what was hidden in the Qin Imperial Seal?    

    

Furthermore, all kinds of rumors and wild history were flying everywhere. This made Shen Guorong, who was on the verge of death, want to take a gamble before he died.    

    

Even if he lost, it was worth it. What if he won?    

    

Or, even if there wasn't anything that he wanted, there must be some shocking mystery behind it. If he could obtain this secret, would the Shen Family be able to prosper for a hundred years?    

    

At the same time, even if he lost, Xue Chen would at least leave the Shen Family for Shen Xuening's sake.    

    

In Shen Guorong's opinion, no matter what, he was sure that he wouldn't lose anything. Therefore, he started to attack Xue Chendong, but all of his plans were ruined by Shen Baichuan's phone call.    

    

Shen Guorong felt helpless.    

    

As soon as Shen Baichuan walked out of the temple, he saw a young man standing at the door of the temple. His face was full of smiles.    

    

Shen Baichuan's expression changed slightly when he saw the young man.
