After Jhingi calmed down he explain everything to Linfeng. He didn't leave anything out. He is also curious about Von.
Jhingi grow up in Meirong's clan. He is a very prominent figure. At just 20 years old he is considered stronger than an average elder. He only heard rumours about Von and his powers but at that point like everybody he dismissed it as exaggeration.
But today facing Von he got humbled. He doesn't understand Von's power, but he Isn't disheartened. If it all took one loose to break his spirit than maybe he should give up pursuing power.
"Hmm" Linfeng calmly listened to Jhingi's explanation after hearing the final part he looked at Jhingi with questioning eyes. "Jhingi? Why do you have weed with you? And that much weed? just to test Von?"
Shit! "W-well master! I-I smocke it sometimes..." Jhingi awkwardly said while scratching his head. Facing Linfeng's piercing contemptuous gaze Jhingi become embarrassed.
"I don't do it that frequently, just here and there!" Linfeng's contempt kept growing the more he heard Jhingi he stopped him and told him to rest. Jhingu stood up an went away looking down at his feet, ashamed. I didn't even get to hear master Linfeng's words on that brat Von's power! Shit!!!
After Jhingi left Linfeng light up a ciger. This days he is in too much pressure. He should start visiting a therapist soon.

Old man wang is sure that he isn't dreaming. He had at least pinched himself 10 times now. But he doesn't seemed to woke up.
That arrogant smile! Arrogant attitude! No regard for anything It's definitely Von!!!!! But how?
After Wang heard Linfeng took away Von he was completely sure that Von is dead. Everybody knows that if anyone kills He clan's members that person fate is sealed. But right now Von returned and he is smiling the same way he remember.
Von stopped his laughing abruptly, he lost his interest on the police officers. He turnned his face towards Wang. Old man wang felt his leggs almost give up seeing that demon directly looking at him.
I was smoking with h-him a few moments ago?? Shhshskk!! God please help me!!!
"Old man wang you look young as I remember, Don't you?" Wang shivered. "V-Von it's good to see you alive and w-well, hahaha" Von completely ignored him." Xueli did got your genes."
Old man wang dropped on the floor. He can't bear Von's direct gaze but something has made his body completely frozen. He felt suffocated and scared for his life. Who knows what this lunatic will do? So he braced himself and closed his eyes. But as abruptly it came it also went away. Hearing footsteps he opened his eyes and saw Von walking away.
He is relieved and confused at the same time. Relieved that this monster finally lost his interest on him. Confused because Von was extremely close with Xueli. After all Xueli was the one who raised him, give him that name. So, why isn't he asking anything about her?
"V-Von!?" Despite his fear curiosity got the better of him. Von stopped and looked back at him. Disinterest iched into his face. "D-Don't you wanna know where Xueli is? I can tell you where she liv...."
Wang stopped seeing Von leaving. Confusion apparent on his face.
"Don't care." with those words Von walked away leaving stumped Wang.
Von stopped in an emtey park and sit down on a bench. He relaxedly leans back, lights up a cigarette and closed his eyes. Xueli. A name he forgot even existed. It's been a decade huh?
18 years ago a man in his 50s and his 17 year old daughter found an abandon infant in a dumster. They took pity on him and take him with them. Xueli specially raised that child. She named him Von.
I am really ungrateful huh!
!Buzz!Buzz!Buzz!Buzz!
Feeling his phone vibrating he opened his eyes and saw that it's his mom calling. A soft gentle smile formed on his face as he pressed receive.
"Von!!! Where are you? It's dangerous staying so late. Get back quickly!"
"Hey old lady I aint a child no more! Stop nagging!!"
"Watch your language!! And I am not old. I am still young and beautiful!!!"
"Okey,okey."
"You man are the ones who age and look disgusting while us women ages beautifully!!"
"Okey I am sorry. Can you stop?"
"Huh you are still so fragile. Quickly get home..oh and buy some eggs from the department store, Bye!"
Von exhaustedly put down his phone and light up another cigarette as the previous one is burnned out. If he had smoked while talking to his mom she would have knew right away and started nagging again. Linhua doesn't like Vom smoking. She is disgusted by cigarette smell and most importantly she doesn's want her son's life endangered in any way.
After relaxedly smoking Von stood up and stretched his body a little. Hmm why is my body so siff. Ahh~ stretching feels so good!
———————
The first thing Von see after he enter home is Lihua cooking while Hei lan watch news. Seeing this a little smile formed on his face. He placed the eggs on kitchen counter and hugged Lihua.
"Von! Go freshen up. And you smoked again? Disgusting!!!" Lihua said as she cooked. Von smiled more. After hugging her for a moment he stopped and looked at Hei lan. He smirked.
"Hey old man? What!? You want me to hug you too? Hahahaha not happening! Hahahah"
Hei Lan annoyedly looked at him and asked where was he all day. Von shrugged, "hmmh in china?"
Veins bulged on Hei lan's neck. Lihua pinched Von and told him to stop bothering his dad. Von laughed and went towards bathroom.
"How quickly my boy had grown up! Sigh! Time seems to fly when you have kids." Lihua said with nostalgia. Hei Lan also become filled with emotion. Even though Von is a spoiled brat he is still his son.
After returning Von sat down at the tabe waiting for his mom to finish cooking. He glanced at the TV but looking at the way the reporter was talking about some celebrity, he looked away with disgust. Hei Lan also snorted in annoyence.
Lihua finished her cooking and smiled looking at both Von and Hei Lan making disgusted faces at the reporter. She doesn't understand why they both hate such news? It can be entertaining sometimes.
She took both Von and Hei lan's hands and closed her eyes. Both father and son sighed in resignation and also closed their eyes. Only after praying are they allowed to eat. Or else not even Von can touch his food if he didn't pray. But Von didn't hate it. In fact a small smile can be seen at the corner of his mouth.
