Chu Xiu looked at Lv Tong and shook his head. "I'm not threatening you. I'm a traitor of the Blue Dragon Society. If I go to the Blue Dragon Society and expose you, wouldn't I be looking for trouble? I just want to tell you a secret. A secret that you've done before, a secret that even you don't know about. A secret about your brother, Cheng Buhui. "
Lv Tong didn't want to talk nonsense with Chu Xiu. His hand was already on his sword.
However, when he heard that this matter was related to his brother, Lv Tong unconsciously let go of his sword. He said coldly, "Don't try to be mysterious. What are you trying to say?"
Chu Xiu said slowly, "I'm also an assassin of the Blue Dragon Society. I know what an assassin from the Blue Dragon Society is like. Apart from killing people, it's all about cultivation. It's like a knife without any emotions. You've been a member of the Azure Dragon Society longer than I have. Perhaps you've killed more people than you can count. But do you know that one of the people you've killed was the father of your brother?! "
Lv Tong couldn't help but tremble. He said in a low voice, "Nonsense! I was only at the inner aura stage when I betrayed the Blue Dragon Society. How could I kill my brother's father? "
Chu Xiu said indifferently, "It's true that Cheng Buhui is very strong, but who says that a father has to be stronger than his son?
All these years, have you ever heard Cheng Buhui talk about his background? Not even once, right? Because this is something that hurts him.
Cheng Buhui was born in the Songyang Prefecture of Eastern Qi's Songyang Prefecture's' Hegemon Sword Villa. 'Although the name sounds domineering, it's actually just a small villa with a few dozen people. The villa master, Cheng Nanhai, is only at the inner aura stage.
When you received the mission to kill Cheng Nanhai, Cheng Buhui was roaming the world. He was Cheng Nanhai's only son, and he was also the most talented disciple in the Hegemon Sword Villa over the years. Cheng Nanhai couldn't bear to let him waste his life in the Hegemon Sword Villa, so he let him roam the world.
In the end, by the time Cheng Bu Hui returned to the Hegemon Sword Villa, you and the other assassins had already exterminated the Hegemon Sword Villa.
It was because of this that Cheng Bu Ji was motivated to uphold justice and eliminate injustice in the world.
Tsk tsk, now that I thought about it, I was starting to admire Cheng Buji. If it was anyone else who encountered such a situation, they would have fallen into a demon's dark side. If they were lucky, they would have walked the path of revenge.
In the end, Cheng Bu Hui didn't want others to follow in his footsteps. Instead, he became a chivalrous person. His state of mind was truly admirable.
However, the problem was that Cheng Bu Hui didn't know who killed his entire family. He didn't have the ability to find that person. Now that the enemy was right in front of him, what do you think Cheng Bu Hui would do if he found out about this?
You were the one who personally killed Cheng Nanhai when the Hegemon Sword Villa was destroyed. Do you think Cheng Bu Hui would let you go out of consideration for his brotherhood and cut all ties with you? Or would he kill you? "
A ridiculing smile appeared on Chu Xiu's face. His figure faded away, leaving behind an expressionless Lv Tong, who was standing there expressionlessly, but his heart was in turmoil.
The hardest thing to understand in this world was the human heart, and the easiest thing to use was also the human heart.
It was extremely easy to kill with a knife, but killing with one's heart was even crueler, even though there wouldn't be blood.
The Jiangdong's Five Heroes actually didn't have much enmity with Chu Xiu, but it was a pity that they were stubborn and blocked Chu Xiu's path. Hence, Chu Xiu had no choice but to use all means to get rid of them.
If he wanted to blame someone, he could only blame Qiu Dongmao. If Qiu Dongmao hadn't used the five of them, they wouldn't be standing on the opposite side now.
However, Chu Xiu's personality had always been like this. It was fine if he didn't make a move, but once he did, he would do it to the extreme.
Although the Jiangdong's Five Heroes were a group, each of them had their own thoughts and mental flaws. Chu Xiu had already planted flaws in the hearts of three of them, and he was only missing one person. However, this person wasn't Cheng Bu Hui, but Liu Qingqing.
In fact, Chu Xiu really admired Cheng Bu Hui. He was a true chivalrous person.
His family was destroyed, but he didn't lose his sight because of hatred. Instead, he chose to devote himself to Jianghu to serve justice and fulfill his lifelong wish. It could be said that among the five of them, only he could be called a true chivalrous person.
Dong Xiangyi's chivalrous actions were full of utilitarianism, but Lv Tong didn't have any chivalrous intentions in his heart. He just wanted to repay a debt of gratitude. If Cheng Bu Hui asked him to be chivalrous, he would do it. If Cheng Bu Hui asked him to become a demon and kill people, he would do the same.
As for Wu Tiandong, he was impulsive and childish. He became sworn brothers with Cheng Bu Hui and the others because he yearned for the so-called chivalrous Jianghu. If he had encountered bandits in the early days, he might have also become a ruthless killer.
As for Liu Qingqing, she was just a woman. She didn't have great ambitions, but she was unwilling to submit to fate. Everything she did was just blindly following orders.
Therefore, whether it was now or in the original plot, Cheng Bu Hui could be called a true chivalrous person. A true chivalrous person with no flaws in his mental state could be compared to Chu Kuangge.
Unfortunately, if one wanted to be a true chivalrous person in Jianghu, chivalrous heart was actually secondary. Strength and power were the most important.
Chu Kuangge was able to become a great chivalrous person. The biggest contribution was not his chivalrous heart, but his cultivation that could be regarded as the top among martial arts masters. He had the entire Guanzhong torture room as his backing.
Obviously, Cheng Bu Hui did not have these, so his fate would be somewhat miserable. Even without Chu Xiu, it would still be the same.
Hidden in the dense forest, Chu Xiu quietly waited for Liu Qingqing's arrival.
Dong Xiangyi and the other two had seen Chu Xiu in secret, but none of them said anything about it. Therefore, from Liu Qingqing's point of view, Chu Xiu did not even chase after her, or he did not dare to chase after her. Therefore, she also boldly went to relieve herself. Of course, in the distance, she was accompanied by Wu Tiandong, who had a strange expression on his face.
At this moment, Liu Qingqing suddenly felt some movement in front of her. She subconsciously tightened her grip on the long sword in her hand, but she heard a faint voice say, "Ms. Liu, calm down. If I wanted to sneak up on you, you wouldn't be standing now."
Liu Qingqing said coldly, "Chu Xiu, you really dared to chase after me! However, you underestimate me. I am indeed no match for you, but we are both in the Three Flower Realm, so I won't be killed by you in one move! "
Liu Qingqing's words were not just arrogant. Although she was a woman, her strength was not weak.
She was originally from a small family and had some martial arts foundation. After meeting Cheng Buhui and the others, Cheng Buhui taught her many things about cultivation. Dong Xiangyi, who was from the Gaoling Dong family, also taught her some things about the foundation of inner strength. Even Lv Tong patiently taught her many killing techniques. She did not know if it was because she already had a relationship with all three of them.
After wandering the martial world for so many years, Liu Qingqing had killed many people. At this time, facing Chu Xiu, she did not panic. She immediately prepared to attack and call for help.
However, at this time, Chu Xiu said, "Ms. Liu, you don't have to be so sensitive. I have already said that I did not want to sneak up on you. This time, my target is only Qiu Dongmao.
In fact, it is very funny. I have no grudge with you Jiangdong's Five Heroes, but in the end, you are opposing each other because of an outsider. Isn't this very ironic?
I said that Qiu Dongmao poisoned Qiu Zhensheng, but you don't believe me. Let's not talk about this for now. The key is that you spent so much effort to escort Qiu Dongmao to Glazed Ink City. What are you after? Benefits? Then I can tell you, don't even think about it. Qiu Dongmao can't give you any benefits.
The crown prince only values his identity as Qiu Zhensheng's illegitimate son and wants to use him to control the Pegasus Farm. Now that Qiu Zhensheng is dead, even if the Pegasus Farm chooses a new owner, it will not be Qiu Dongmao. Therefore, this person is actually already considered useless. It is already very good that he can guarantee a high position and wealth in his next life. Why do you have to work so hard? "
Liu Qingqing frowned, but in the end, she did not attack Chu Xiu. This was because Chu Xiu's words had indeed hit the nail on the head.
After wandering the martial world with Cheng Buhui for so long, Liu Qingqing was still a little tired. After all, she was a woman and did not have as strong a conviction as a man like Cheng Buhui.
From her behavior, it could be seen that Liu Qingqing wanted to marry a strong man, a man who could give her a sense of security so that she would not have to wander around.
At first, this person was Cheng Buhui, but then it became Dong Xiangyi. Of course, Lv Tong should be an exception.
Now Wu Tiandong was pursuing her, but Wu Tiandong was not as good as Cheng Buhui and Dong Xiangyi in all aspects except for sincerely treating her well. Therefore, Liu Qingqing was a little resistant and had not yet agreed to Wu Tiandong's request.
This time, when she escorted Qiu Dongmao, it really made her think that she could be recruited by the crown prince. However, she did not dare to tell others.
Cheng Buhui hated being someone else's lackey. Even if this person was the crown prince, Dong Xiangyi did not want to submit to others. Lv Tong, on the other hand, only followed Cheng Buhui. He would do whatever Cheng Buhui asked him to do.
Therefore, Liu Qingqing told this matter to Wu Tiandong. Unfortunately, Wu Tiandong was a guy who did not have any far-reaching ideas. He only knew how to follow what others said. He had to listen to Cheng Buhui on this kind of matter.
Looking at Liu Qingqing's expression, Chu Xiu knew that he was right. This was because Liu Qingqing was such a person in the original plot.
In the end, Chu Xiu said indifferently, "I'm trying to sow discord and recruit you. You can't rely on the crown prince, but I can introduce you to the second prince of Eastern Qi. Although this prince is not as prominent as the crown prince, he is more capable and famous than the crown prince. You don't have to be in a hurry to answer me now. I have no grudge against the Five Heroes of Jiangdong, so I will give you some time. This is also the last chance. I hope you can grasp it. "
After saying that, Chu Xiu immediately left. Liu Qingqing, who was still standing there, even forgot that she had to go to the bathroom. Her expression kept changing, and it was only when Wu Tiandong shouted at her that Liu Qingqing realized what she was going to do.
