Chapter 275: Shall We Take a Detour?

Chu Nan himself couldn't figure out how to explain to others the bizarre triangular relationship between him, his old pal, and his master.

In theory, his old pal should be his master's named Senior Disciple, which would make him Chu Nan's fellow disciple brother! However, this guy was more than a decade older than him, and when Chu Nan was little, he even called the man "Uncle," but after he became an apprentice, the man suddenly turned into his Senior Disciple brother, throwing all familial relations into confusion!

Whether to call him "Disciple Brother Uncle" or "Uncle Disciple Brother" was equally awkward. How could anyone understand if he explained it that way? So Chu Nan got used to calling him "old pal."

And then there was his eccentric master which only gave Chu Nan an even bigger headache. He had talked about going to die, and then said something about contacting him later—it was unclear whether he meant a real death or a fake death.
