Yu Xiu finally leaned on the bed, and cried bitterly.
It is said that a woman's heart is like a needle at the bottom of the sea. But, how many people in the world can understand a man's heart? Especially a man like Dong Wu Lei. His personality was contradictory and extreme. Who could understand him?
Beating a woman didn't seem like a real man's behavior. But, a real man would disregard everything for his brother!
...
Dong Wu Lei whipped his horse and galloped wildly! He was burning with anxiety!
A road led straight to the end of the world. He was galloping alone on his horse!
His destination was the Broken Soul Cliff!
[Wu Shang, you must walk slowly!] [You must wait for me!]
...
Dong Wu Shang had only been intercepted by Ao Meng Yun of the Ao Clan along the way. Dong Wu Shang had forcefully rushed past them. He had a rough appearance, but he had the overall situation in his heart.
He knew that this wasn't the time to fight to the death with the Ao Clan. Therefore, he hadn't killed anyone. He had only relied on the Black Saber's sharpness and weight to open a path for himself. Then, he had swaggered away.
He had gone straight for three-thousand miles. And, he hadn't been intercepted a second time!
Dong Wu Shang muttered to himself because of this tranquility.
[How can it be so tranquil?
Could it be that no one has noticed me?]
He looked at the familiar scenery in front of him. He was getting closer and closer to the territory of the Dong Clan.
The Broken Soul Cliff would be three-hundred miles ahead!
He was less than one-thousand miles away from his home.
Dong Wu Shang hesitated, and stopped his footsteps. Then, he made a draft in his heart. This would be his last and most sincere effort to win back his elder brother.
"Big Brother, I will withdraw from the clan. I will still be a member of the Dong Clan. But, I won't participate in any clan disputes. I've come back today to help the clan get through this difficult time. But, I will ask my father to resign after this.
"I will accompany my Big Brother from now on. And, we will rush to the heavens!
"I will leave the Dong Clan to you, Big Brother. But, I will rush back as soon as the clan needs me. And, I will fight for our clan to the end! "
Dong Wu Shang shook his head. [It seems a little stiff?]
[But, how should I say this … Ah, the gap between us brothers has become bigger and bigger these years.] [Big Brother's loyal subordinates look at me as if they are looking at an enemy.]
[Big Brother, you don't know how much I miss the days when we brothers were as close as one.. I want to return to those days …]
Dong Wushang looked ahead worriedly. At this moment, he longed to go home, but he was also afraid of going home. Home was so warm, yet so far away.
After resting for a while, Dong Wushang set off again. This time, he did not hesitate.
The Broken Soul Cliff was up ahead!
The Dong Clan's territory would be beyond the Broken Soul Cliff.
And the Broken Soul Cliff was the best place for an ambush!
Only a few people could walk side by side through the dense forest on both sides of the road. Dong Wushang knew that if someone wanted to deal with him, they would definitely be there!
[It might be the Ou Clan's alliance, or it might be the Ao Clan, or … it might be my own clan!]
However, he strode forward like a shooting star without the slightest hesitation.
I've already hesitated and considered it. But now, no matter what lies ahead, I have to go through it! Regardless of whether it was a mountain of blades, a sea of flames, or a broken heart, he had to face what he had to face.
Dong Wushang strode forward, but he was unconsciously biting his lips.
The distance of three hundred miles was gradually left behind by him.
Dong Wushang was startled when he turned around the foot of the mountain.
At the foot of the Breaking Soul Cliff in front, there was a person standing upright. Behind him, there were dozens of people sitting and waiting. When they saw Dong Wushang's return, they immediately stood up. "Second Young Master is back!"
Dong Wushang felt somewhat relieved.
They were all Dong Clan's people. Most of them were Big Brother's people. But, the Second Senior Elder was also among them. [He doesn't like me, but he won't be so despicable with his status, right?]
[Moreover, these people are smiling. The Second Senior Elder's face is still ice-cold. But, he has always been like this. So, it's not a big deal.] [The only strange thing is, why are they here?] [Have they come to greet me?]
Dong Wushang suddenly felt excited as he looked at the smiling faces in front of him. He quickly walked forward.
"Second Senior Elder, you've had a hard journey!" A First Grade Emperor Level Expert welcomed him with a cheerful smile, "The situation in the Three Heavens is dangerous now. We have to be on guard. And, we know that the Black Devil wants to ambush you. You've just been intercepted by the Ao Clan. So, we've calculated the time and waited here."
He smiled, "This Broken Soul Cliff is a natural place for ambushes. We have to be on guard."
Dong Wushang suddenly felt relieved. [So, that's how it is.] He had a forthright and generous personality. So, he immediately smiled and said, "This is nothing. I can't thank you enough! Oh, by the way, Big Brother didn't come? "
"The Grand Duke is preparing a banquet and decorating the courtyard in the clan. He's welcoming the return of the Second Senior Elder." That Emperor Level Expert had an embarrassed look on his face. He said in a low voice, "To be honest, the Grand Duke was very angry. He was a little … hahaha. In fact, even people like us were very … upset. Second Senior Elder, please don't blame us. Cough cough … But then, the Grand Duke said, 'After all, you're my younger brother …' So, he asked us to come and greet you."
At this point, Dong Wushang was completely at ease. For him to be able to say these words, it could be considered as him being frank and sincere.
[It seems that Big Brother has really thought it through.] He couldn't help but sigh, "Alas, it's not easy for Big Brother …"
That Emperor Level Expert walked over with Dong Wu Shang in his arms. He then said, "Second Young Master, you must be careful. The Second Senior Elder has come forward to greet you … Well, you know his temper. Cough cough."
"Of course." Dong Wu Shang laughed out loud and walked forward.
He then slowly walked into the crowd.
The Dong Clan had three Senior Elders. The Senior Elder in front of him was the second one. His name was Du Liu Feng. He was nearly a hundred years old.
A strange look flashed through Du Liu Feng's eyes when he saw Dong Wu Shang walking over. He then insipidly said, "Second Young Master, I've heard that your cultivation has reached First Grade Saber Emperor?"
Everyone seemed somewhat nervous when they heard this question. They pricked up their ears, and opened their eyes wide as they looked at Dong Wu Shang.
"Yes. I was lucky enough to break through to First Grade Saber Emperor. "Dong Wu Shang smiled modestly and said," I've made Second Elder laugh. "
Du Liu Feng looked at Dong Wu Shang with a strange look in his eyes. He then said, "Second Young Master, you're ten years old this year, right?"
Dong Wu Shang rubbed his head and replied with a smile, "Ten-and-a-half years old. I'll be twenty years old in half a year. "
Du Liu Feng let out a long 'oh' sound. Then, he said, "Was the journey peaceful?"
Dong Wu Shang smiled contemptuously and said, "There were only a few jumping clowns. They weren't worth mentioning."
"Jumping clowns …" Du Liu Feng's eyebrows twitched. He reluctantly pulled out a smile and said, "Second Young Master has grown up."
"Let's go. Everyone in the clan is anxiously waiting for us." Du Liu Feng smiled. Then, he resumed his expressionless face.
Dong Wushang smiled and walked into the crowd. People from all directions also surrounded him with smiles on their faces, surrounding him in the middle.
Du Liu Feng tightly wrinkled his brows. He then turned around, and silently walked forward. One would've seen his complexion in a very complicated manner if they had seen him from the front. His eyes were full of contradictions.
Ten-and-a-half years old Emperor Level Expert! Saber Emperor!
What kind of potential did he have? How could an old man like him, who had climbed to the eighth grade of Emperor Level Expert in over a hundred years old not understand?
However, he couldn't consider this at the moment. Jianghu was in chaos right now. The Dong Clan couldn't withstand a civil war. The Dong Clan would've likely been destroyed in this great tide of Jianghu if these two brothers were to fight at this time.
Dong Wu Shang wouldn't have a choice even if he didn't fight for it. That was because the Eldest Brother and the Third Brother had already made up their minds to push Dong Wu Shang onto the throne of the Clan Lord.
Wasn't the Mo Clan's Mo Tian Yun and Mo Tian Ji brothers a good example? The Mo Clan's strength had dropped by almost half after the last fratricide between the two brothers.
The Mo Clan wasn't as big as the Dong Clan. But, the ancestors of the Mo Clan weren't weak either.
But, how could the prosperity of the clan be entrusted to a single person? Good martial arts and high cultivation aren't necessarily qualified to be the Clan Lord, right? Du Liu Feng had quarreled with the Eldest Brother and the Third Brother more than a hundred times on this point. But, they were obstinate in their own ways.
Therefore, he had no choice but to personally take action today. However, he hesitated at the last moment. [Do I really have to kill a young expert with boundless future prospects? This would've been a great loss to the clan. In fact, it could've been our hope to rush to the Upper Three Heavens in the future.]
Du Liu Feng's face was calm and collected. He frowned as he silently hurried on ahead.
"Senior Elder!" an Emperor Level Expert anxiously called out. It seemed as if he was reminding or urging him. He was obviously anxious when he saw that Du Liu Feng was somewhat hesitant.
"Forget it!" Du Liu Feng sighed in his heart. He suddenly stopped, and coldly shouted, "Attack!"
The eight people who were closest to Dong Wu Shang immediately attacked as soon as he gave the order.
Dong Wu Shang was walking in the middle of the group. He was in the middle of the 40-50 people. He was happily walking forward with the group of the clan when he suddenly felt a burst of palpitations. It seemed as if a great crisis had suddenly struck his body.
He couldn't help but subconsciously twist his body. And, a sharp pain spread from every part of his body at the same time.
The eight people who were too close to Dong Wu Shang heard the order. But, they didn't have enough time to draw their swords. Moreover, swords and sabers would make a sound. So, they simply used their fists and feet. And, all of them heavily hit Dong Wu Shang's body at the same time.
They hit his back, legs, waist, chest, nape, lower abdomen, dantian … and his temples!
Dong Wu Shang was caught off guard. He suddenly suffered a fatal attack. He angrily screamed. His tall and sturdy body was sent flying like a huge gunnysack.
Cracking sounds echoed in midair. It was unknown how many bones in his body had been broken. He was bleeding from his seven orifices. His vision was almost blurred. He only felt that every part of his body was in heart-wrenching pain.
Dong Wu Shang's body fell to the ground with a 'puff' sound. And, a splendid blood splashed on the ground.
However, he angrily turned over, and jumped up. He felt that his right leg had gone soft when he fell to the ground. And, he nearly fell down. He hastily used his left leg to support his body. Only then did he realize that his right leg had been broken.
His right arm, which he had used to wield the saber, hung down softly. His shoulder had been shattered.
Eight experts had attacked Dong Wu Shang at the same time. He had been caught off guard, and had sustained injuries. He didn't have the slightest ability to counterattack. In fact, he didn't even have the ability to escape.
Dong Wu Shang's entire body was madly gushing with blood. His eyes were bleeding as he looked at these people in front of him. His eyes were filled with sorrow. He muttered, "So, it's still like this? Big Brother … has he really attacked me? He … has he really attacked me? "
Blood continuously gushed out of his mouth as he spoke.
Dong Wu Shang could clearly feel that his heart was splitting into pieces.
Compared to the pain on his body, the pain in his heart was ten thousand times worse.
