A man's promise was worth its weight in gold!
Although there was nothing too deceitful in war and he was cold-blooded and ruthless to the enemy, Xiao Chen still had certain principles as a person.
A man cannot stand without integrity.
Since he had made an agreement with Zhangsun You Ye, and Zhangsun You Ye did it, Xiao Chen could naturally do it as well. Otherwise, Xiao Chen could not be called a man and was not qualified to reach the peak of martial arts.
A man should be magnanimous and do everything with a clear conscience. If the enemy could keep their promise, Xiao Chen could also keep his promise.
No one would laugh at Xiao Chen as an idiot. They would only admire Xiao Chen's magnanimity and integrity because there were too few people who could do this.
Most people would usually kill the hostage after using the hostage, burning the bridge after crossing the river, and not keeping their promise. Although there was nothing wrong with this, it was already a despicable behavior.
After flying for hundreds of miles, the experts of the Zhangsun family, the Li family, and the Zhou family still did not catch up. Could it be that the experts of the three families were still fighting and had given up on the pursuit of Xiao Chen?
This was very possible.
Zhangsun Wuxin became nervous. He was afraid that Xiao Chen would burn the bridge after crossing the river and kill him, so he asked in a low voice, "Xiao Chen, I have done it. Can you let me go?"
"It's not time yet." Xiao Chen replied faintly and changed his direction to fly toward the southwest. In the process of flying, he would change direction from time to time in order to get rid of the enemy who might be chasing him.
"Okay."
Zhangsun Wuxin looked helpless. He did not dare to say more, for fear of angering Xiao Chen and causing a fatal disaster. People had to bow their heads when they were under the eaves. His life was now in the hands of Xiao Chen, so he naturally did not dare to speak carelessly.
Xiao Chen felt Zhangsun Wuxin's worry, so he added, "Don't worry. I, Xiao Chen, am a man of my word. Since your father can do it, then I will naturally let you go."
"Xiao Chen, I admire you! Uh … "Zhangsun Wuxin was delighted and blurted out a compliment. After saying it, he was stunned and a little embarrassed. He rolled his eyes and said seriously,
"Xiao Chen, to be honest, there is no deep hatred between us. It's just a small conflict. I hope you can join the Zhangsun family and work together with me to share glory, splendor, and wealth. How about it?"
"Conspiring together? Share glory, splendor, and wealth? Hehe. Xiao Chen hadn't expected that Zhangsun Wuxin would try to rope him in at this time. He couldn't help but be slightly stunned, and then he sneered.
Zhangsun Wuxin heard Xiao Chen's sneer, but he didn't give up. In order to gain Xiao Chen's help, or to learn the secrets of Xiao Chen's strength, he continued to say shamelessly, "Xiao Chen, I sincerely invite you …"
"Shut!" Xiao Chen impatiently interrupted Zhangsun Wuxin's treacherous solicitation. He subconsciously released a murderous aura and said coldly,
"I don't want to join the Zhangsun family, let alone work with you. Don't you just want something useful from me? If I lose my value, then you can't wait to kill me, right? Third Young Master, am I right? "
"Ah … Xiao Chen, you misunderstood me." Zhangsun Wuxin was shocked by Xiao Chen's murderous aura. He wanted to explain, but the latter had asked him to shut up. For the sake of his life, he did not dare to continue.
"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh."
Xiao Chen did not want to talk anymore. He had not completely gotten rid of the threat. If a strong enemy wanted to kill him, then he could still be easily discovered. Therefore, he had to stay far away from the Dark Sky Residence and cultivate in seclusion.
…
"Bang, bang, bang."
"Boom, boom, boom."
Xiao Chen had already flown hundreds of miles away. Zhangsun You Ye, Li Shijie, and the rest of the twelve were still fighting. Almost everyone was more or less injured, and three of them were not lightly injured.
It seemed that the two sides were really fighting this time. They would not let it go until there was a clear winner and a life and death battle.
"Li Shijie! You're dead! "
Zhangsun You Ye's combat strength was not bad. He was actually evenly matched with Li Shijie, whose cultivation was one level higher than his. Moreover, he became braver as the battle went on. The outstanding disciples of the aristocratic families were indeed capable.
"You want to defeat me with your mediocre martial arts? You're dreaming! " Li Shijie did not show weakness and opened his mouth to retort. He paused for a moment and felt that it was not enough, so he mocked,
"Zhangsun You Ye, you fool. You didn't save your own son and even let Xiao Chen leave. The next time you see your son, you'll probably only see a corpse. Hehe."
"You … You dead man's mouth! I'll let you, a dying man, spit a few more mouthfuls of shit. Hmph! " Zhangsun You Ye's expression changed drastically. As he cursed back, he began to worry about Zhangsun Wuxin's safety.
Previously, Zhangsun You Ye had been threatened by Xiao Chen and had no choice but to agree to Xiao Chen's request. But now that he thought about it, he had only made a verbal agreement with Xiao Chen. Why did he believe that Xiao Chen would let Zhangsun Wuxin go?
He regretted it.
Zhangsun You Ye somewhat regretted letting Xiao Chen leave. But in that situation, he had no choice but to agree to Xiao Chen's conditions for Zhangsun Wuxin's sake. Otherwise, Zhangsun Wuxin would be chopped into pieces by Xiao Chen.
Although he had never seen Xiao Chen fight, Zhangsun You Ye still had a discerning eye. He felt that Xiao Chen was a ruthless and decisive person, so he did not dare to take the risk of angering Xiao Chen.
Because he was distracted, Zhangsun You Ye's attacks on Li Shijie were not as strong, so he gradually fell into a disadvantage.
"Idiot." Li Shijie sneered. His combat strength erupted, forcing Zhangsun You Ye to retreat.
"Ah! Damn it! "
Zhangsun You Ye's mind suddenly became clear. He realized that he had finally gained the upper hand, but in just a moment, he had fallen into a disadvantage. He was surrounded by danger, and immediately roared in anger.
"Third Brother!" A few hundred feet away, Zhangsun You Ri was fighting Zhou Botong with all his strength. When he heard Zhangsun You Ye's angry roar, he could not help but feel anxious.
Zhangsun You Ri wanted to help Zhou Botong, but he could not split himself. Zhou Botong was like a dog skin plaster that kept pestering him. He could only have the heart to kill his enemy, but he could not reverse the situation.
"Swish, swish, swish."
At this time, there was a slight sound of something tearing through the air. Although the sound was very soft, it still attracted the attention of both sides.
"Another spatial shuttle ship? There's only one figure in the ship, and it looks somewhat familiar. "
Because of the distance, Zhangsun You Ri could not clearly see the appearance of the person in the spatial shuttle ship. He only felt that it was somewhat familiar.
"It's Father! Lord Father is here! Haha! Li Shijie, you are dead! Hahaha! "
Zhangsun You Ye's eyesight was much better than Zhangsun You Ri's. He saw the person in the spatial shuttle first and immediately started shouting in delight, his laughter interspersed with his words.
"Zhangsun Wudi? He actually came in person? Not good! " Li Shijie and Zhou Botong also saw the appearance of the person. Their expressions immediately changed, as though they had seen a ghost in broad daylight.
A person's name was like a tree's shadow.
Zhangsun Wudi was the current patriarch of the Zhangsun Clan. His status was one of the few in the Central Plains. In the eastern region of the Central Plains, other than his father, Zhangsun Wu Tian, he could be said to be the number one.
Moreover.
Zhangsun Wudi's strength was also top-notch. He had already reached this level over ten to twenty years ago. Whether he had reached the Heavenly God Realm or not, outsiders had no way of knowing.
Even if Zhangsun Wudi had not broken through to the Heavenly God Realm, he was at the peak of the half-god realm. Li Shijie and Zhou Botong could not contend against him.
"Retreat!"
Li Shijie and Zhou Botong would never think that Zhangsun Wudi was here to give them an award. Feeling guilty, the two looked at each other and shouted at the same time, then flew into the sky.
"Swish, swish, swish." Li Shiming and Zhou Nantian saw that their leader had escaped. They immediately flew away without hesitation. If they did not escape, would they stay and wait for death?
As soon as Zhangsun Wudi appeared, Li Shijie and the others decisively flew away. They were naturally scared away. One could imagine that Zhangsun Wudi's prestige and strength were not just for show.
Zhangsun Wudi's name was quite good. Invincible, invincible. He had scared away the patriarchs of the Li Clan and the Zhou Clan with his invincible aura. It seemed like his father, Zhangsun Wu Tian, was quite talented and had foresight.
The person who came was Zhangsun Wudi. He actually found Zhangsun You Ye and the others. However, the battle between experts was very big, so it was not surprising that he could find them.
Zhangsun Wudi's eyes were like torches. He naturally saw the battle two hundred thousand zhang away. When he saw the experts of the Li Clan and the Zhou Clan escaping, he could not help but sneer and shout:
