Chu Xiu's battle at the Chu Clan could be said to be extremely dangerous. As a Blood Condensation cultivator, he was the weakest of the group. If it weren't for the fact that the Internal Aura cultivators and the Xiantian cultivators had fought to the death, the final victor would definitely not have been him, Chu Xiu.
However, although this battle was dangerous, the rewards added up were enough. It could even be considered a pleasant surprise.
Forget about those external objects, the most important thing was the Glass Golden Thread Gu, which allowed Chu Xiu's originally average talent to have a qualitative improvement.
Of course, the Glazed Gold Thread Gu was not omnipotent. As a symbiotic body, the Glazed Gold Thread Gu would only return the same amount of strength to the host based on how much Qi and blood the host could provide.
If the Glazed Golden Thread Gu's host was a person who did not want to improve, then the effect would not be great.
Chu Xiu placed the two cultivation methods and the treasures he plundered from the Chu Family into the Secret Space Box and decided to go into seclusion for a period of time.
One was to recuperate from his injuries and make a breakthrough to the Xiantian Realm, and the other was to avoid the limelight.
Chu Xiu was sure that the entire Tongzhou Prefecture had exploded.
The Chu family had been exterminated, and the Shen family's patriarch had also died in the Chu family's hands. In such a large Tong Zhou Prefecture, all the influential forces had been wiped out in a single night. It would be strange if the matter did not blow up.
Following the commotion, Shen Mo's brother, Shen Bai, who had already joined the Azure Water Sword Sect, would definitely return. It didn't matter if this matter was traced back to him, Chu Xiu wasn't prepared to continue staying in Wei County.
The Azure Water Sword Sect was the number one sect in the Wei County and its influence in the Wei County was absolutely astonishing. Even in the entire pugilistic world, the Azure Water Sword Sect was considered a top notch sect.
There were countless sects, aristocratic families, and other martial arts forces in Jianghu, but only a small number of them could be ranked.
The largest information gathering organization in the world of martial arts was called Wind Sweeping Tower, which meant that a storm was coming. All the rumors and information in the world of martial arts, big or small, could not be hidden from Wind Sweeping Tower.
Right now, Wind Sweeping Tower had composed a song for the top sects in the Pugilistic World, describing all the powerful martial artists in the Pugilistic World:
The East and West Heavens, the North and South Buddhist Sects.
Daoism's Three Pure Ones, Four Spirits Fusion Divine Art.
The five swords divided heaven and earth. The six gangs gathered together.
The Seven Sects Performance. The eight sects shook the universe.
Nine families passed down for thousands of years, Jianghu passed down through the ages.
In this song formula, the Seven Sects and Eight Factions had the most members. Even though they didn't stand at the peak, but they had the greatest influence in the martial world. The Azure Water Sword Sect was one of the Seven Sects and was known as the local tyrant of the Wei County.
With Chu Xiu's current strength, he wasn't foolish enough to go against the Azure Water Sword Sect. Since he was all alone now, if he didn't stay in Wei County, he could just change to another place. Not long after, there would be a huge opportunity appearing in the Northern Yan region, and Chu Xiu was prepared to join in on the fun.
As for now, Chu Xiu was preparing to go into seclusion to accumulate strength.
Without strength, even if a fortuitous opportunity was right in front of him, Chu Xiu would not dare to take it.
While Chu Xiu was in seclusion, the entire Tongzhou Prefecture was indeed in an uproar.
In fact, some people had already heard the movements of the Chu family that night.
However, the Chu family's mansion occupied an entire street. Even if others heard some movements, they didn't dare to rashly come over to investigate.
After all, everyone knew that the second young master of the Chu family killed the Shen family's housekeeper, Shen Rong. What if the movements tonight were related to the Shen family? Therefore, they didn't meddle in other people's business.
Until the next morning, when the Shen family was suspicious that Shen Mo didn't return for an entire night, they went to the Chu family to inquire about the situation. In the end, no one answered the door, and there was a faint smell of blood drifting out from the courtyard.
The Shen family secretly cursed and quickly opened the door. The first thing they saw was a scene of corpses all over the ground!
The Chu family of the Tongzhou prefecture was annihilated in a single night. Among the dead was the Shen family's patriarch, Shen Mo. In a place like the Tongzhou prefecture, this was already a huge matter.
After the Shen family recovered from the shock, they quickly sent someone to the Azure Water Sword Sect to inform Shen Bai. For such a huge matter, they could only let Shen Bai personally handle it.
Seven days later, the Shen family's clansmen were waiting at the city gate. After a while, there was the sound of horse hooves coming from a distance. Five riders were rushing over. One of them was dressed in white and had a long sword with a blue scabbard on his back. His appearance was almost exactly the same as Shen Mo, but compared to Shen Mo, Shen Bai's face had an intense indifference that made people feel fear.
One of the Shen family's elders walked to Shen Bai's side while trembling with fear, "Young Master, you are finally back."
Shen Bai dismounted from the horse and his expression was still indifferent, as if he still didn't know that Shen Mo was already dead.
He looked at that Shen family's elder until the other party was trembling. Shen Bai then spoke coldly, "My younger brother is dead, why are you all still alive?"
Hearing this, that Shen family's elder actually 'plop' and kneeled on the ground, trembling as he spoke, "Young Master, you really don't care about our matters ah! The Patriarch going to the Chu Clan was his own decision, how would we dare to obstruct the Patriarch? "
Back when Shen Mo inherited the Patriarch, he ruthlessly beheaded several Shen family's elders. Logically speaking, these Shen family's elders should be afraid of Shen Mo, but in fact, they were most afraid of Shen Bai.
Because Shen Bai once told Shen Mo that there was no longer a need for the Shen family to exist. Since they didn't want to be disciplined, then they should all be killed. Anyway, he could bring Shen Mo to join the Azure Water Sword Sect.
Shen Mo at least still had the Shen family in his heart, but in the eyes of this Shen family's Young Master, the Shen family was truly a dispensable existence.
If they were obedient, then they would be kept. If they weren't, then they would all be killed!
Looking at this Shen family's elder who was already in tears and snot, Shen Bai spoke indifferently, "Bring me to see the corpses."
Hearing this statement, that elder acted as if he was granted amnesty and immediately brought Shen Bai and the others to the morgue to see the corpses.
Seven days had passed, and the corpses naturally couldn't be left in the Shen family, or else they would have long started to rot. Therefore, the Shen family's members dealt with all the corpses and placed them in the morgue.
After arriving at the morgue, Shen Bai removed the white cloth and looked at Shen Mo's decapitated body. Shen Bai's expression was still as cold as ever, but at this moment, everyone could clearly feel that the coldness on Shen Bai's body had intensified. No one present even dared to breathe loudly.
After a long while, Shen Bai cupped his hands towards a middle-aged man behind him who was over 50 years old and dressed like an ordinary martial artist, "Constable Chen, sorry to trouble you."
That Constable Chen nodded and said, "Young Master Shen is too polite, it's only right."
As he spoke, that Constable Chen cleaned his hands and began to inspect the corpses one by one. He also inquired about the Shen family's situation in detail, such as the strength of the Chu Clan's members and whether they had offended anyone.
Among the five people that Shen Bai brought, three of them were Shen family clansmen. They had gone to the Azure Water Sword Sect to report to Shen Bai, but they didn't know this Constable Chen.
A Shen family elder pulled over a clansman who came to report and asked in a low voice, "Who is this Constable Chen?"
The clansman who came to report said in a low voice, "This Constable Chen's background isn't small. He is a veteran constable of the Guanzhong torture room. At his peak, he was an inner aura expert of the fifth level of the qi control realm.
However, because his old injuries had relapsed, he could no longer stay in the Guanzhong torture room, so he returned to Wei Prefecture to prepare to retire.
When Young Master heard the news of Patriarch's death, he specially invited this Constable Chen to help. "
The Shen family elder nodded his head in understanding. So it was a constable from the Guanzhong torture room. No wonder Young Master was so polite.
Even in a small place like Wei Prefecture, the Shen family had heard of the famous Guanzhong torture room.
Guanzhong was located in the center of the three kingdoms and belonged to the ungoverned area. The order was chaotic.
After a temporary truce between the three kingdoms, the martial arts world of Guanzhong worked together to establish the Guanzhong torture room to maintain order in Guanzhong. It didn't belong to any sect, nor did it belong to any kingdom. It maintained absolute justice.
The Guanzhong torture room didn't care about ordinary people. They were only responsible for maintaining order in Guanzhong, dealing with vendettas in the jianghu, and chasing down bandits and villains. Therefore, they were also known as constables of the jianghu. They had rich experience in dealing with such matters.
After a long while, Constable Chen stood up and pointed to the corpses of the three Dragon Riders Imperial Army soldiers, "The Chu family was massacred by these three people.
Two of them used spears and one used a saber. Looking at the calluses on their hands and the scars on their bodies, I dare to say that they were martial artists from the military.
However, they didn't have a waist token on them, so I couldn't tell which kingdom they were from.
According to the scars and the scene when the servants found the corpses, there were five people fighting. "
Constable Chen pointed to Chu Zongguang's corpse and the martial artist with whip scars on his face. "The Chu family's patriarch was ruthless enough. He used the Five Poison Sect's Blood Transformation Pill to launch a sneak attack, causing blood poison to enter his body and blinding his eyes before killing him. The last one should have been killed by your younger brother after he used a weapon with a strong sword intent to activate the sword light. "
Constable Chen looked at the last Dragon Rider Imperial Army soldier and Chu Zongguang's corpse with a strange expression. "As for the last person, when he was fighting with the Chu family's patriarch, he was ambushed by your younger brother. The two of them were killed together. The wounds were all in the same place. They were also killed by sword intent."
