Deep Thoughts
After Chu Xingyun left, Shui Qianyue was so angry that her body trembled. She coldly said, "This Chu Xingyun is so lawless. He doesn't put me in his eyes at all. No matter what, he must die!"
In Shui Qianyue's eyes, Chu Xingyun was nothing more than a toad in a smelly ditch. He could only look up to her for the rest of his life.
Even if she knew that Chu Xingyun's cultivation had soared, Shui Qianyue didn't care at all. She thought that Chu Xingyun was just a piece of trash who had taken some pills.
But just now, Chu Xingyun had actually humiliated the Shui Family. Before he left, he even said that he wanted to end the agreement from a year ago. How arrogant and egotistical! Shui Qianyue couldn't tolerate this. She felt like she was being disgusted by a toad.
"Chu Zhen now has Yan Du holding the fort. I'm afraid he'll have even more experts in the near future. If we try to deal with Chu Zhen, we'll only be asking for trouble." Shui Chongxian felt his heart bleed as he looked at the hundreds of heads before him.
"Qianyue, if our Shui Family wants revenge, we can only count on you. You must ruthlessly defeat Chu Xingyun in the Martial House selection. You must even kill him!"
A cold light flashed in Shui Qianyue's eyes. She said, "Of course. With my current strength, killing him is as easy as blowing off dust."
"I think we shouldn't underestimate him. The current Chu Xingyun is a completely different person compared to the past. Since he dared to say those words, he must have made some preparations. Moreover, I have a feeling that he knows about what happened sixteen years ago."
Shui Chongxian's words were like a warning bell, startling Shui Qianyue. Indeed, Chu Xingyun had changed greatly compared to the past. Not only was his cultivation stronger, but he was even able to recruit a powerhouse like Yan Du. This didn't make sense.
"The Martial House selection will be held in Blackwater City. You should leave a few days in advance and inform Elder Gu of this matter. Have him help us." Shui Chongxian thought for a long time and said in a low voice.
"Elder Gu? Is he in charge of the Martial House selection this time? "Shui Qianyue's eyes flashed with joy.
"Of course!"
Shui Chongxian revealed a hideous grin as he said, "This time's Martial House Selection is a great opportunity for you. As long as you obtain Elder Gu's approval, not to mention killing Chu Xingyun, it won't be difficult for you to even become the champion."
Hearing Shui Chongxian's words, Shui Qianyue immediately forgot about her humiliation. She was looking forward to it. With Elder Gu as her spy, killing Chu Xingyun would be a piece of cake.
West Wind City.
Chu Xingyun and Yan Du were rushing towards the city gates, preparing to return to Chu Town.
Along the way, Yan Du's expression was a little strange, as if he wanted to say something, but did not dare to.
"Do you think that I've missed a good opportunity to wipe out the Shui Clan?" Chu Xingyun noticed Yan Du's expression, so how could he not know what he was thinking?
"Master is very perceptive." Yan Du was slightly startled before he voiced his doubts, "After this incident, the Shui Family has already suffered heavy losses and their influence has been greatly weakened. With Chu Zhen's current strength, he could easily wipe them out. Why didn't he seize the opportunity and instead leave?"
If the Shui Family targeted the Chu Family like this, if it was Yan Du, he would directly lead a group of experts into West Wind City and slaughter the Shui Family without a second word. In any case, with the support of the Hundred Treasure Tower, no one dared to say anything.
"Destroying the Shui Family is easy, but what about revenge?" Chu Xingyun stopped. Yan Du was stunned by his words.
"On the surface, we do have the ability to destroy the Shui Family. But don't forget, the relationship between the Shui Family and the Dreamy Cloud Martial House is not simple. If we destroy the Shui Family and incur the wrath of the Dreamy Cloud Martial House, how will Chu Zhen deal with it?"
Others might not know about the relationship between the Shui Family and the Dreamy Cloud Martial House, but Chu Xingyun was very clear about it.
In his previous life, Shui Qianyue had won first place in the Martial House's selection. She had directly chosen the Dreamy Cloud Martial House and became a core disciple of the Dreamy Cloud Martial House. Her path of cultivation had been smooth and she had received the support of countless elders.
Because of this, even the Shui Family had become one of the top families in the region, and their limelight was unparalleled.
From this point, it could be seen that the relationship between the Shui Family and the Dreamy Cloud Martial House was not simple. Chu Xingyun would not take the risk to attack the Shui Family because of a moment of anger. It would only bring about endless disasters.
"Since the Shui Family's background is so terrifying, why did you come to humiliate them?" Yan Du was still puzzled. He could not understand Chu Xingyun's actions.
"The Dreamy Cloud Martial House is one of the giants of the Liuyun Dynasty. It is impossible for such an existence to take care of every aspect of the Shui Family. Even if they have a friendly relationship, they will only help when the Shui Family is in danger. We killed the Shui Family's people and humiliated them. But in the end, the Shui Family was not destroyed, nor did they decline. With the status of the Dreamy Cloud Martial House, it is impossible for them to take action."
Chu Xingyun's eyes were like torches. He had already seen through everything, "The reason why we came to humiliate them was to intimidate the Shui Family, so that they would not dare to do anything in the future."
After Yan Du heard the explanation, he suddenly understood. He looked at Chu Xingyun with fear.
Coming to humiliate them was such a small matter, but there was actually so much scheming behind it. However, Chu Xingyun had already seen through all of this. Just this thought alone made Yan Du feel ashamed of his own inferiority.
"How is your cultivation of the 'Poison Devouring Arts'?" Chu Xingyun's sudden question made Yan Du start. He immediately replied, "I've already reached the third level. At this speed, I will definitely be able to step into the earth spirit realm within three years."
Yan Du's words were filled with pride. Stepping into the earth spirit realm in three years was already extremely fast. Moreover, he had a completely new understanding of the art of poison through practicing the 'Poison Devouring Arts'. Once he stepped into the earth spirit realm, he would definitely be a top expert.
"Three years is too slow." Chu Xingyun furrowed his brows and took out a piece of paper. He threw it to Yan Du and said, "If you want to step into the earth spirit realm, you must sense the evil yin aura of the heavens and earth. My understanding of the evil yin aura is recorded here. Go back and study it carefully. Before I participate in the martial house selection, I must step into the earth spirit realm."
"Ah?" Yan Du jumped up in fright. There was less than a month until the martial house selection. Wanting him to step into the earth spirit realm in such a short period of time, was this a joke?
Yan Du unfolded the paper and glanced at it. It was this glance that caused him to be completely dumbfounded. Every word inside seemed to have a magical power that made him feel as if his hairs had been opened.
One glance was worth several months, or even half a year of hard work!
"Do you still think that my words just now were a joke?" Chu Xingyun looked at Yan Du with a supercilious smile. He was a Martial Emperor. Just a random piece of cultivation comprehension that he'd written was a priceless treasure.
