Chapter 255
The old beggar's eyes gleamed with a glimmer of spirit upon hearing Qinchuan's words, but they immediately dimmed again, his gaze scattering as he was lost in memories.
In a low murmur, he muttered, "Descendant of the Great Emperor... Descendant of the Great Emperor..."
While speaking, tears suddenly streamed down from the old man's eyes as he cried out, "Forefathers above, your descendant has failed you, disgracing your esteemed name."
After crying, he started to cough incessantly again, indicating that his illness was quite severe.
After a long while, the old beggar regained some clarity and asked, "Young man, what business do you have with the Chou Family?"
Qinchuan knew that this old beggar was indeed a descendant of the Gongshan Family, who were the current Chou Family.
Observing the descendant of a once great emperor reduced to a street beggar, he couldn't help feeling a sense of sorrow.
