Chapter 836: Chapter 2 Promotion Chapter 836: Chapter 2 Promotion Shen Fuâs gaze was fixed intently on the boy.
But the more he looked, the more he felt the resemblance, even vaguely seeing a hint of Bu Chanâs shadow.
âCould it really be my senior brotherâsâŚâ
With a thought, Shen Fu suddenly spoke up, addressing the boy who was looking for a place to hide:
âUmmâŚ
your name is Wang Yiâan, isnât it?â
The boy, who was busy finding a place, couldnât help but turn his head to look at Shen Fu, his face somewhat blank, but a trace of wariness soon rose:
âWhat do you want?â
A smile squeezed itself onto Shen Fuâs otherwise indifferent face.
This vigilant look that was on guard against everything and could turn cautious at any moment was all too familiar the more he observed.
By this moment, he was seventy to eighty percent sure.
Although it was astonishing to encounter the child of an old acquaintance from such a great distance,
his overwhelmingly strong Spiritual Sense wasnât deceiving him.
...
Looking at the boy, his eyes softened involuntarily, and he said softly:

âYourâŚ
Whatâs your fatherâs name?â
Wariness grew more evident in the boyâs eyes as they shifted slightly.
Hesitantly, he said, âMy dad?
His name isâŚâ
Shen Fu subconsciously took two steps forward.
However, unexpectedly, the boy shouted in alarm:
âFu, run fast!â
As he spoke, to Shen Fuâs somewhat surprised gaze, the boy leaped onto the head of the massive lizard.
However, to the boyâs frustration, the light brown vertical pupils of the huge lizard showed bewilderment.
âHiss?â
The blue tongue flicked out, instantly wrapping around a Spirit Insect the size of a head that flew past the bushes and pulling it into its mouth.
It chewed leisurely and methodically.
âFu!!â
The boy anxiously stomped on the lizardâs head and then met Shen Fuâs slightly curious gaze with his eyes.
The air instantly became exceedingly awkward.
âAhemâŚâ
The boy squeezed out a smile, trying to appear as harmless as possible:
âUmmâŚ
If I said I was playing hide and seek with you, would you believe me?â
Shen Fu was somewhat speechless for a moment.
This childâs wariness was a bit too excessive.
But to be honest, he felt even more that the boy was indeed his senior brotherâs own flesh and blood.
Thinking this, he did not press further.
Given this childâs wariness, even if he asked further, the boy would probably still be on guard.
He simply stated, âYour fatherâs name is Wang Ba, right?â
The boy was startled, glanced at Shen Fu with suspicion, and questioned:
âI donât know himâŚâ
âHuh?â
Shen Fu was taken aback.
Was he mistaken?
Spiritual Sense quietly swept over.
He noticed that the boyâs small hands hidden behind his back were continuously gesturing to the giant lizard.
Shen Fu immediately realized what was happening.
âClever boy!
Still on guard, arenât you!â
A wave of speechlessness washed over Shen Fu.
However, he developed a slight interest and his face broke into a smile:
âHehe, are you playing hide and seek with your friend?
IâmâŚ
Iâm quite interested, why donât you include me?â
âPlay hide and seek with us?!â
The boyâs eyes lit up instantly, and the caution in them seemed to fade a bit.
Shen Fu chuckled softly to himself.
After all, he was just a childâŚ
As he contemplated this,
a chorus of childrenâs calls came from the depths of the woods:
âWang Yiâan, have you hidden yet?â
âWait!
Whatâs all the noise, do you want to rouse your father?
I might as well take you to Hutou Mountain!â
The boy commanded loudly with a frown.
He then quickly turned to Shen Fu and said:
âOlder brother, no time to waste, follow me, I have to find a place he canât findâŚâ
Older brother?
Shen Fu couldnât help but laugh and cry.
I call your father senior brother, and you call me older brother?
But he wasnât angry.
After all, he was just a child who probably picked up the term somewhere and used it casually without knowing better.
Seeing the boy no longer seemed guarded against him, Shen Fu shook his head secretly.
He was just a child after all, quick to forget.
If it were his senior brother, it wouldnât have been so easy to approach.
The boy stomped a few more times on the head of the large lizard which then stuck out its tongue to wrap around him, promptly running quickly in the opposite direction of the woods.
Shen Fu followed with contentment.
He then discovered, somewhat to his surprise, that although the large lizard appeared slow and clumsy, its speed was incredibly fast.
Even though he had been in the Golden Core Realm for several years and progressed very quickly under the âdedicated cultivationâ of his master, keeping up was somewhat strenuous.
As he continued, he couldnât shake a growing sense of strangeness.
âWang Yiâan, arenât we hiding a bit too far away?â
Unable to resist, Shen Fu glanced back only to find that the small woods were completely out of sight.
Instead, what loomed ahead was a towering peak of Hushou Mountain.
But the large lizard was still running swiftly toward the location of Hushou Peak.
The reassuring voice of the boy came through:
âNot far, not far at all.
Fatty Xiâs mount is a Hunting FalconâŚâ
Suddenly, Shen Fu understood.
Inside the Spiritual Government, the eerie voice that had been silent finally spoke up:
âIsnât this kid messing with you?â
Shen Fuâs expression cooled as he refuted:
âDonât always judge others by your standards.
He is just a child; what harm could he intend?â
As he was saying that, Shen Fu saw several figures in front who seemed to be discussing something, flying slowly towards them.
Seeing the running lizard and Shen Fu following behind, the people looked surprised, but after a glance, resumed their conversation.
And the lizard continued to run straight ahead in the previous direction.
However, just as they were passing by each other, the lizard suddenly halted abruptly, leaping behind those peopleââŹâwith one of the boyâs voices urgently shouting out:
