CHAPTER 38
Annexation of a family
At this moment, the way the crowd looked at Chu Xingyun had changed. They no longer dared to treat him as a sixteen-year-old boy. Just his decisiveness in killing was far better than anyone present.
"Patriarch Bai, Patriarch Hu, and Patriarch Sun." Chu Xingyun spat out a word and looked at the three Clan Heads who had been arrogant just now. His eyes were still calm.
The three Patriarchs trembled and hurriedly said, "Patriarch Chu, this is a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding …"
Before they could finish speaking, the three of them felt a chill run down their necks. Soon after, the entire world began to spin. Their heads flew up and finally fell to the ground.
Puff! Puff!
The three corpses fell to the ground, causing a cloud of dust to rise. The crowd's expression became incomparably miserable. They didn't even dare to breathe loudly. Dead. Another three family heads had died. They all died at the hands of Chu Xingyun.
They didn't know how to describe their current feelings. Originally, the group of people had come here in such a grandiose manner. They thought that they could easily kill Chu Xingyun and divide the Fire Spiritual Stone Vein.
But now, there was a shocking reversal in the outcome!
As Chu Xingyun spoke, he killed Chu Pingtian and the others. Even the four family leaders couldn't escape. They would never forget that.
"Chu Family Head, my Yang Family is deeply regretful. From today onwards, I am willing to be your servant. Please be magnanimous and let me go." The Yang Family Head suddenly spoke and directly knelt down.
"The same goes for my Zheng family. We're willing to do anything for Patriarch Chu!"
The heads of the clans, who were usually arrogant, were now kneeling in front of Chu Xingyun, begging for mercy and kowtowing to admit their mistakes, causing the ground to tremble.
They were very clear that the Chu family, with the help of the Yan poison, had completely made up for their weakness in strength. In the near future, they would definitely become a tyrannical family, completely changing the structure of West Wind City.
Since Chu Xingyun disdained to form an alliance with them, then they were willing to become Chu Xingyun's slaves, in order to protect their own lives and preserve the lineage of their entire clan.
Yan Du turned around to look at Chu Xingyun, only to see Chu Xingyun raise his eyebrows slightly. He said in a mocking tone, "With your strength, you want to become my, Chu Xingyun's, servants? Don't you think you're dreaming?"
Back then, Chu Xingyun had no choice but to take Yan Du as his servant.
The people in front of him had varying levels of strength. The strongest was only at the fourth sky of spirit gathering realm. What was the point of having such a servant? It would only be a waste of time.
When the crowd heard Chu Xingyun's words, they wailed even more miserably. When they thought of the miserable deaths of Lin Chongdao and the others, their hearts began to beat faster.
This feeling of fear was too strong, almost causing them to completely collapse.
"However …"
Just when everyone was in despair, Chu Xingyun said in a low voice, giving them a glimmer of hope. Their eyes widened, afraid that they would miss a single word.
"If you're willing to recognize Tiger Chu as your master, I can consider letting you go." Chu Xingyun's tone was indifferent, causing the crowd to be shocked. Tiger Chu? The servant who followed Chu Xingyun around?
Even Tiger Chu himself was shocked. He felt like he couldn't regain his senses.
The people in front of him were all experts from various cities. Many of them were even the heads of their own clans. Asking them to recognize him as their master, was this a joke?
"What? You're not willing? " Chu Xingyun's voice suddenly turned cold. Yan Du immediately took half a step forward. The aura of a ninth sky of spirit gathering realm wreaked havoc, like an invisible blade placed on everyone's necks.
The clan heads looked at each other with hesitation. In the end, they let out a long sigh and lowered their heads in Tiger Chu's direction.
"Young master …" Tiger Chu felt as if he was dreaming. His voice began to tremble.
Chu Xingyun smiled and said, "I'm giving these people to you because I believe in your ability. From today onwards, all the matters of the Chu Clan, as well as the management of these clans, will be handed over to you."
Tiger Chu immediately felt a heavy burden on his shoulders. Other than being shocked, he felt even more grateful.
He could clearly feel the trust in Chu Xingyun's eyes. It was very real, without the slightest bit of falsehood. This made Tiger Chu have the urge to cry. He immediately said, "Young master, I won't let you down!"
Seeing this scene with their own eyes, the hearts of many clan heads were shaken.
After what happened just now, all of them were convinced by Chu Xingyun's words and actions. They felt that Chu Xingyun was definitely not a fish in a pond. In the future, he would definitely achieve great things.
Chu Xingyun trusted Tiger Chu so much and even handed them over to him. There must be a reason.
Thinking of this, the clan heads felt a little relieved. They suddenly felt that submitting to Tiger Chu wasn't a shameful thing. Who knows, it might even bring great benefits to their clans.
This kind of thinking would indeed become a reality in the near future. Every time these clan heads thought of what happened today, they would sincerely rejoice that they made such a decision.
Of course, this was all for later.
Chu Xingyun didn't need to worry about the rest of the matters. It was all handed over to Tiger Chu and the deacons.
When they returned to the Chu Clan and spread the news of the other clans submitting to them, the entire Chu Clan was in an uproar. Almost everyone's face was bursting with joy. Some even began to dance.
Originally, they were worried that the Chu Clan would attract the hatred of other clans after obtaining such great wealth. Now, with Chu Xingyun's help, so many clans were willing to submit to the Chu Clan and be used by the Chu Clan.
It wasn't an exaggeration to say that the Chu Clan now had both wealth and power. It had reached an extremely terrifying level!
That night, the entire Chu Town was immersed in laughter. Every household was brightly lit. It was extremely lively.
Chu Xingyun didn't join in the celebration. After he returned to the courtyard, he directly entered the inner space of the Reincarnation Stone.
"Now that Chu Pingtian and the others are dead, the Chu Clan can finally settle down. In the future, under the management of Yan Du and Tiger Chu, I believe that the Chu Clan will be able to clean up the decline quickly and gain a firm foothold in West Wind City."
When he thought of this, Chu Xingyun felt a weight lifted from his heart.
He had already made plans for the Chu Clan. But he didn't expect that because of Chu Pingtian's stupid actions, he would save so much time. He could swallow up so many clans in one fell swoop and make his strength soar.
Now, Chu Xingyun didn't have to worry about the Chu Clan at all. He could focus on what he wanted to do.
Reaching out his hand, a fist-sized red spiritual fruit appeared before Chu Xingyun.
This spiritual fruit had a strange shape. It emitted a faint warmth as if it was surrounded by an invisible flame. It was the Flaming Heart Fruit.
