"Savior … Uncle God Slayer, you're exaggerating. You're all my family and friends. Everything I've done is what I should do, so you don't have to thank me at all," Xiao Chen said sincerely and didn't claim credit.
Sha Buhui once had a conflict with Xiao Chen and even became his enemy. He was saved by Xiao Chen just now. After hearing about Xiao Chen's strength and experience, he felt extremely complicated.
Sha Buhui originally thought that he would be able to catch up to Xiao Chen's strength after a few years of training, but reality proved that he was too naive. Forget about a few years of training, even if he trained for a lifetime, he wouldn't be able to catch up to Xiao Chen's footsteps. The distance between them would only get further and further apart.
"Sigh."
Sha Buhui, who used to have a higher cultivation than Xiao Chen, felt sorrowful when he thought that he was only at the third level of the Purple Image Realm. He knew that he and Xiao Chen weren't the same kind of people. He was just an insignificant stepping stone for Xiao Chen.
Feeling Sha Buhui's complicated gaze, Xiao Chen turned around and walked to Sha Buhui. He extended his right hand and said with a sincere smile, "Brother Buhui, it's been a few years since we last met. You look even more elegant than before."
"Err …" Facing Xiao Chen's words and actions, Sha Buhui was caught off guard. He hesitated for a moment and finally extended his right hand to shake Xiao Chen's right hand. He forced a smile and said,
"Xiao Chen, don't tease me. How am I elegant? Compared to your Brilliant Sun, I'm not even a firefly … "
"Brother Buhui, don't belittle yourself. Your talent isn't any worse than mine. I just had better opportunities than you. In the future, you can also become a Demigod Realm expert or even a Heavenly God Realm expert. Believe me."
Xiao Chen had a sincere look on his face. He planned to help the three of them, including Sha Buhui, improve their strength quickly, just like how he helped Xiao Haoran and the others. He didn't mind the past grudges anymore. After all, he and the Sha Clan had turned from enemies to friends.
"I … Xiao Chen, thank you for being so magnanimous and forgiving." Sha Buhui said shamefully. Recalling how he and the Sha Clan had used their power to oppress others, bully and hunt down Xiao Chen, he felt terrible.
"Buhui, don't be so wishy-washy. Xiao Chen isn't that kind of petty man. Otherwise, he wouldn't be taking care of everyone so much. Hahaha." Heaven's Slaughter laughed, dispersing the somewhat restrained atmosphere.
"Hahaha."
"Hehehe."
Everyone laughed, and the atmosphere suddenly became incomparably lively. Saving Kill Vanquisher and the other two was a good thing. Now that Xiao Chen and Kill Buhui had buried the hatchet, everyone was naturally happy.
Kill Vanquisher Wolf was the happiest. Back then, he had taken good care of Xiao Chen. Even when Kill Vanquisher had chased after Xiao Chen, he hadn't treated Xiao Chen as an enemy. Now, seeing Xiao Chen grow to such an extent, he felt incomparably gratified.
"Pa."
Xiao Chen was a person who knew how to repay kindness. He noticed Kill Vanquisher's gratified expression, so he let go of Sha Buhui's hand and walked up to Kill Vanquisher. He gave Kill Vanquisher Wolf a big hug and called out affectionately, "Third Uncle."
"Good, Xiao Chen. You still treat me as your Third Uncle. Third Uncle is so happy. Hahaha."
Kill Vanquisher laughed happily. In the past, he had admired Xiao Chen very much, even treating Xiao Chen as his own son. Now that Xiao Chen was treating him so affectionately, how could he not be happy?
"Once for Third Uncle, always for Third Uncle. Back then, Third Uncle treated me like family. Naturally, I can't forget my roots. Hehe." Xiao Chen's lips curled into an incomparably sincere smile.
"Vanquisher, it's fortunate that I returned in time back then. Otherwise, Xiao Chen, that unfilial son Heaven Potian … Sigh." Sha Zang Tian was talking about the past when he suddenly remembered that Heaven Potian had already met with misfortune. He couldn't continue and let out a heavy sigh in the end.
Xiao Chen and the others in the know naturally knew why Sha Zang Tian's expression had changed so drastically. All of them had a heavy heart. The Sha Family and the Su Family had been annihilated by the evil Zhao Ji in just a blink of an eye.
Kill Vanquisher felt that the atmosphere wasn't right. He looked around at everyone's heavy expression. Then, he exchanged glances with God Slayer and Sha Buhui. He had a bad feeling in his heart.
Could something have happened to Heaven Potian? Kill Vanquisher thought to himself. He gathered his courage and asked, "Grandpa, tell me. What happened to my father?"
"Vanquisher, you have to be mentally prepared." Sha Zang Tian took a deep breath and told him the truth of the Sha Family's annihilation.
"Nine years ago, when you guys left the Sha Family to train, the Sha Family was annihilated by an evil woman. I wasn't home at that time. This bad news was first discovered by Xiao Chen and Da Huang …"
"What! The Sha Family was annihilated? " Even though they were mentally prepared, Kill Vanquisher and the others were still shocked. They shouted angrily in unison, "Who is that evil woman? She deserves to die a thousand times! "
"That evil woman was an elder of a big family in the Central Plains. Three years ago, she was killed by Xiao Chen, Da Huang, and Xiao Sha. Even her family was annihilated by Xiao Chen and the others." Sha Zang Tian didn't feel relieved. He only felt endless sorrow.
"This …" Kill Vanquisher and the others couldn't get angry anymore. Their enemies were dead. What was the point of being angry? Sha Buhui didn't give up. He asked Sha Zang Tian with a heavy heart, "Great-grandfather, are my grandfather and my sister dead?"
"They are dead. I sent people to take care of the Sha Family's funeral. Nephew, Brother Vanquisher, Brother Slayer, the dead can't come back to life. My condolences."
Liu Ruhu took over Sha Buhui's words. It was just as he had said. After he came back, he found out that something big had happened in Sha Di City. Not only had the Sha Family been annihilated, but even their Liu Family had suffered great losses.
"My poor sister didn't even have time to get married. It's all because I'm useless as a big brother. I didn't have the ability to protect her and the Sha Family at home. Sigh." Sha Buhui grabbed his hair with both hands and blamed himself.
"Buhui, even if I was there, I wouldn't have been able to change the fact that the Sha family was annihilated. That evil woman was already a demigod-level one powerhouse nine years ago." Sha Zang Tian tried to comfort Sha Buhui.
Sha Slayer was relatively calm. He noticed that something was wrong. He asked doubtfully, "Why would a demigod expert kill the weak Sha Family? Did the Sha Family not have anything that could tempt a demigod expert? "
"That evil woman killed innocents. She didn't even treat the people of the Huangshen Continent as human beings. She alone killed hundreds of thousands of people in Sha Di City. She also killed Su Qingyi's family and took Su Qingyi away. I found Su Qingyi in the Central Plains." Xiao Chen gave Sha Slayer an honest explanation.
"Took Su Qingyi away? Something like that actually happened! " Kill Vanquisher, Sha Slayer, and Sha Buhui all looked at Su Qingyi. They didn't know why that evil woman took Su Qingyi away.
