Chapter 1614 Hideout
The expression of deep shock blossomed on their faces when Wu Lei and Tan Zemin saw Qing Feng's real face.
'Xiao Tian?!'
They found it hard to believe what they were seeing.
Of course, they knew who he was because it could be said they were related to his father in the past.
And their relationship was not a good one, but a bad one!
After all, his father had caused trouble for them.
"Why? Why does it have to be him? Why does brother Qing have to be Xiao Tian?" Tan Zemin did not want to acknowledge that Qing Feng was Xiao Tian because he hated Xiao Tian's father to the bone.
Sure, Xiao Tian had never done anything bad to him or the villagers, but his father was the source of their suffering in the past.
If he had to say the names of the people he hated the most in this world, Xiao Tian's father would be ranked in the top three.
It could be said Xiao Tian's father was the reason why he lost his fellow disciples in the past.
"Xiao Tian!" Tan Zemin's expression turned angry as he remembered his fellow disciples who had died.
At this moment, he almost could not control himself because he felt like he was seeing Xiao Tian's father when he saw Xiao Tian.
"Stop! Don't do anything to him!" Wu Lei stopped Tan Zemin when Tan Zemin was about to walk closer to Xiao Tian. "Calm yourself now!"
Of course, a feeling of anger also welled up within him when he saw Xiao Tian because he also hated Xiao Tian's father.
However, Xiao Tian and Xiao Tian's father were two different people. Even though they were related by blood, but they should not blame Xiao Tian for his father's actions.
It would be unfair to Xiao Tian because he also suffered since he was a kid.
First, Xiao Tian was kicked out of the Xiao and Ye families, and last, he grew up without a father's love.
Wu Lei knew that Xiao Tian also suffered because the Ye family did not welcome him after he was kicked out by the Xiao family.
This was the reason why Wu Lei did not blame Xiao Tian for his father's actions because he was only a young man who got dragged into the adults' problem.
Tan Zemin immediately came to his senses and could think clearly now. Previously, the flames of anger consumed his body.
That was why he could not think straight earlier. "I'm sorry, village chief. I lost control of myself earlier. He looked just like his father, so my mind tricked me into thinking I saw his father."
"It's fine. I understand your feelings." Of course, Wu Lei understood Tan Zemin's feelings because his hatred for Xiao Tian's father was as big as Tan Zemin's. "Now, let's bring them to the village first."
"Alright." Tan Zemin nodded his head.
After arriving at Wu Lei's house, they put Xiao Tian and Long Jingxian in the guest room. Wu Lei only had one guest room, so Xiao Tian and Long Jingxian were in the same room.
Coincidently, Shangguan Wan'er and her husband arrived at her father's house after Wu Lei put Xiao Tian and Long Jingxian in the guest room.
"Father, how is Luli's condit-" she stopped her words halfway when she saw Xiao Tian.
'Xiao Tian?!'
She still did not know that Qing Feng was Xiao Tian.
Like her father, she could control herself when she saw Xiao Tian. "Father, why is he here?"
"Qing Feng is Xiao Tian." Wu Lei went straight to the point.
"What?!" she found it hard to believe what she was hearing. "So, the one who helped us until now was Xiao Tian?!"
"Yes. I was also shocked earlier." He told her what had happened to Xiao Tian and Long Jingxian in the lake. "Wan'er, call a doctor now. We need to check their condition first."
"Alright." After saying that, she went out to find a doctor.
After the doctor arrived at Solaris village, she immediately checked their condition. She said they were poisoned.
However, the poison was not a deadly one, so she told Wu Lei and the others not to worry.
After treating Xiao Tian and Long Jingxian, the doctor gave medicine to Wu Lei. After that, she left.
"Wan'er, call all your fellow disciples to meet me in our hideout." Wu Lei spoke and paused for a second before he continued, "We need to discuss something."
"Alright." She walked out of her house to call her fellow disciples to meet her father in their hiding place.
Wu Lei wasted no time and headed to his room. A wooden door leading to their hideaway came into sight after he pushed the cupboard to the side.
After opening the door and lighting the torch, he headed to their hiding place. Their hideaway was quite far from the village.
He needed to walk in the dark secret passage for fifteen minutes to reach their hideout.
Actually, their hiding place was inside a cliff. There was a big cliff several hundred meters from Solaris village.
The cliff was not formed naturally but man-made.
Yes, Wu Lei and the others built that cliff thirteen years ago!
They needed a safe place to hide, so they decided to build a cliff.
After reaching their hiding place, Wu Lei lit all the torches in their hideout. As soon as all the torches were lit, a wide area came into sight.
There was a large round table with thirty chairs to his left. On his other side, there was a practice ring and many swords placed on the sword shelves.
Wu Lei wasted no time and immediately sat on his seat.
*Sigh…
He sighed when he remembered that Qing Feng was Xiao Tian.
Even though his gaze was fixed on the practice ring, but his mind was on Xiao Tian. He still found it hard to believe what was happening.
"Is it fate?" he sighed again.
Shortly after that, twenty-nine people entered the secret place.
If Xiao Tian was in their hideaway, they would know half of them because they chatted with them a few times.
After they sat on their chairs, Yiran inquired, "Why did you suddenly gather us in our hideout? Is there anything important to discuss, Shiming?"
Shiming was Wu Lei's real name. Because they were hiding from their enemies, they needed to change their names and appearances.
[A/N= I won't reveal all their real names. I will just use their names until now. With this, it will be easier for you guys to remember who is who.]
Actually, Wu Lei did not know where to start. If he went straight to the point, he was afraid that Yiran and the others would attack Xiao Tian immediately.
'Where should I start?'
He did not want something bad to happen to Xiao Tian, so he needed to choose his words carefully.
After thinking for several seconds, Wu Lei decided to tell Xiao Tian's good side and contribution to the village first. "You guys know Qing Feng, right?"
"Yes, we know him." Yiran and the others responded in unison. "Why did you suddenly drag him into our conversation?"
"Lei, did you gather us in our hideout because of him?" Chunxi inquired.
