Chu Xiu was a little surprised that Lu Fengxian asked him to deal with Chen Tong and his son. He thought that Lu Fengxian would let them go.
However, after thinking about it, Chu Xiu felt relieved. The current Lu Fengxian was not the Lu Fengxian in the original plot. This was a real world. Compared with the unchanging game, people's hearts would change.
The things that Lu Fengxian would experience in the original plot might not necessarily be experienced by the Lu Fengxian in the current world. Moreover, with Chu Xiu's intervention, Lu Fengxian might also experience some other things.
This sudden thought made Chu Xiu a little anxious. Chu Xiu had always ignored one thing, and that was the butterfly effect.
Since his rebirth, this world had actually deviated from the plot. Although the incident of the Chu family had happened, Shen Mo, a person who should not have died, had died.
These were all trivial matters, so they would not cause the general plot to change for the time being. However, when Chu Xiu became stronger and stronger, or when he came into contact with more and more people, even Chu Xiu himself did not know what the world would eventually become.
Simply put, compared with others, Chu Xiu's only advantage might gradually disappear.
Chu Xiu shook his head, and there was a hint of coldness in his eyes. Whether it was the butterfly effect or the plot change, in this world, strength was the foundation of everything. As long as Chu Xiu kept moving forward towards this goal and reached the peak of this world, he would be able to rest easy and not be afraid of anything.
In his previous life, he had endured for long enough. In this life, he naturally had to act bravely and aggressively. At the same time, he had to be careful of scheming in his heart. Only in this way could he walk all the way to the true peak.
Chu Xiu tossed these thoughts to the back of his mind for the time being and looked at Chen Yuanzhi and his son. He searched their bodies but didn't find any Violet Dogwood. He said indifferently, "Is there any use in putting on a show of deep affection between father and son at this time? Hand over the purple dogwood. "
When they saw Lu Fengxian hand them over, Chen Yuanzhi and his son were in despair.
They had only been in contact with Chu Xiu for two days, but they had already realized what kind of person he was. If they were to fall into his hands, they would probably be doomed.
Chen Tong looked at him expectantly, "If we hand over the Violet Dogwood, will you let us go?"
Chu Xiu shook his head. "It seems that you still don't understand what I mean. I asked you to hand over the Purple Dogwood. Is it so hard to understand?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Chu Xiu directly stabbed the knife into Chen Tong's chest. He twisted the handle of the knife, but Chen Tong was already dead.
Seeing his son killed in front of him, Chen Yuanzhi was instantly stunned. Chu Xiu drew his saber and said to him lightly, "You too. I'll give you a chance to hand over the Purple Dogwood."
Chen Yuanzhi's eyes were bloodshot as he yelled at Chu Xiu crazily, "Dream on! I've hidden the Purple Dogwood. You won't be able to find it even if you turn the entire Chen Family upside down! You killed my son. This time, I'll make sure that all your efforts will be in vain! "
Chu Xiu shook his head helplessly and said, "Another one who doesn't understand human language."
This time, Chu Xiu didn't kill Chen Yuanzhi, nor did he waste his energy to really turn the Chen Family upside down. He was still seriously injured. The most important thing was to take the items and find a place to recuperate.
Chu Xiu went directly to the inner residence in the backyard of the Chen Family and forced some of the Chen Family's collateral disciples and Chen Yuanzhi's direct relatives out.
The Chen Family wasn't strong to begin with. Other than Chen Yuanzhi, who was a Connate Realm expert, and Chen Tong, who was at the Blood Condensation Realm, the rest were at the Body Tempering Realm. Therefore, when they were fighting, Chen Yuanzhi didn't even let them come out to die. Instead, he made them all stay in the inner residence and were not allowed to come out no matter what they heard. In the end, they were all defeated by Chu Xiu.
Seeing that Chu Xiu had forced dozens of people out, Chen Yuanzhi gritted his teeth and said, "Chu Xiu! You don't follow the rules of the underworld! "
"Rules of the underworld? Who set the rules? "
Chu Xiu said lightly, "Chen Yuanzhi, you think that you've been in the underworld for your entire life. In fact, you don't even know what the underworld is. Only those with a saber in their hands have the right to set the rules. Now that I have a saber in my hands, my words are the rules! "
Chu Xiu didn't continue to interrogate Chen Yuanzhi. He directly turned his gaze to a Martial Artist in his thirties and asked, "What's your position in the Chen Family?"
The Martial Artist trembled and said, "Manager."
"You're a manager in your thirties? Are you a collateral descendant of the Chen Family? "
The Martial Artist reluctantly nodded.
"Do you know where the Purple Leaf Dogwood is?"
The Chen Family's manager hesitated for a moment and shook his head.
However, before he could react, Chu Xiu directly slashed out with his saber and instantly decapitated the corpse, causing everyone in the Chen Family to let out a scream.
Lu Fengxian, who was standing at the entrance of the hall, frowned. He didn't agree with Chu Xiu's indiscriminate killing of innocent people, but he didn't say much when he thought of what Chen Yuanzhi and his son had done.
Chu Xiu turned his gaze to the second person expressionlessly. "Do you know where the Purple Leaf Dogwood is?"
The second Martial Artist was in his forties and was also a collateral descendant of the Chen Family. When he saw Chu Xiu's gaze turn over, he immediately broke down and shouted, "Don't kill me! I know! The Purple Leaf Dogwood is in the secret room in the Patriarch's house, but the key to open the secret room is in the hands of the Patriarch and the Young Master. Only when the two keys are combined can the secret room be opened! "
Chu Xiu curled his lips and said, "Take the key to open the secret room and bring me the Purple Leaf Dogwood and the Chen Family's medicinal pills. Don't think about escaping, unless you are confident that you can be faster than me."
The Chen Family's collateral descendant trembled as he searched Chen Tong's corpse for a copper cloud pattern that looked like an ornament. Then, under Chen Yuanzhi's murderous gaze, he found a very similar cloud pattern on his body. If one didn't look carefully, they wouldn't be able to tell that it was the key.
Holding the key, the Chen Family's collateral descendant almost used the fastest speed to bring the Purple Leaf Dogwood and a large bag of bottles and jars to Chu Xiu and said with a trembling voice, "Sir, the Chen Family's treasures are all here."
Chu Xiu patted his shoulder and praised, "Not bad, from now on, you are the Chen Family's Patriarch."
The collateral descendant was stunned and stammered, "But the Patriarch …"
Before he could finish his words, Chu Xiu directly pierced Chen Yuanzhi with his saber and pulled out the crimson saber. He shook off the blood on the saber and said, "It's done now. You are the new Patriarch."
After putting these things into the secret space box, Chu Xiu directly left with Lu Fengxian.
Apart from Chen Yuanzhi and his son, there were no other direct descendants in the Chen Family. After killing the two of them, the direct descendants could be considered to be completely destroyed.
Moreover, before leaving, Chu Xiu casually appointed a collateral descendant to be the Patriarch. He just said it casually, but things like power can make people lose themselves. Without the direct descendants, how the collateral descendants would fight was not something that Chu Xiu would consider.
Now that Chu Xiu was seriously injured, he was not in a hurry to return to Lu Yang Town. Instead, he planned to find a remote barren mountain to recuperate.
On the way, Lu Fengxian suddenly said, "Brother Chu, this time you helped me, I will leave all the Purple Leaf Dogwood to you. I won't take my share."
Chu Xiu raised his eyebrows and said, "It's not really helping you. Actually, my goal from the beginning was the Purple Leaf Dogwood. Moreover, if you hadn't stopped those three from the Black Tiger Gang, I wouldn't have been able to kill Xu Chongyang."
Lu Fengxian shook her head firmly and said, "The meaning is different. To me, you are helping me."
Seeing that Lu Fengxian was so insistent, Chu Xiu did not argue, because that was Lu Fengxian's personality. If you helped him a little, he would return ten times the favor.
Therefore, in the original plot, Nie Dongliu was mostly trying to win over Lu Fengxian. But even so, in the end, Lu Fengxian was still willing to help Nie Dongliu, and even took the blame for him.
"By the way, Brother Chu, I have something to say, although you might not like it."
Lu Fengxian looked at Chu Xiu and said, "Brother Chu, your personality is a little extreme, and it's easy for you to kill too many people, just like how you killed the collateral descendant of the Chen Family today.
Although killing is inevitable in the pugilistic world, you can't be controlled by killing intent. My master once said that when he was in the Northern Yan military, he fought with Eastern Qi and killed countless people. In the end, he was so angry that he almost killed his own people.
This kind of situation is a shock to the state of mind, and it can easily affect future cultivation. "
Lu Fengxian did not blame Chu Xiu for killing innocent people. He was just worried that if Chu Xiu continued killing, it would be easy for him to fall into the devil's path.
Chu Xiu smiled and said, "Brother Lu, if I said that I actually don't like killing, would you believe me?"
Lu Fengxian did not say anything, but just looked at Chu Xiu with an expression that said, "Do you think I would believe you?"
Chu Xiu shook his head and said, "I'm telling the truth. Killing is just a means to me to achieve my goal. If there is a more convenient and faster way, I would not want to kill people.
But most of the time, killing is the best way to solve problems. Just like just now, there is a great fear between life and death. Although there are many people in this world who are not afraid of death, there are definitely not many.
You also saw that killing only one person saved me a lot of energy and time. It's very worth it.
Also, you don't have to worry that I will be affected by the killing intent and evil aura. Among the cultivation techniques I'm practicing now, there is a devil's cultivation technique that can gather the killing intent and evil aura between heaven and earth to attack the enemy. Its power in close combat is not inferior to Gang Qi.
No matter what kind of power it is, it is just a means to me, a kind of tool. People will not be driven and influenced by tools. "
Lu Fengxian nodded. It was good that Chu Xiu knew this. Moreover, some of Chu Xiu's theories sounded very novel to him, and he felt a little emotional and inspired.
