Chapter 252: Du Xuzi died, shocking everyone

~6 min read 1,177 words

Kid, there's one more thing.

What is it?

Heishanyang whispered, "That outsider has come to Longshe Cheng."

Chen Chuyang narrowed his eyes, staring at Heishanyang.

Heishanyang felt uncomfortable being stared at, and said: "How is Longshe Cheng?"

Longshe Cheng is fine, you don't need to worry. Inside Longshe Cheng there's a ruthless female swordswoman; her sword aura is terrifying. Even I, hiding in the formation on Longshe Shan, can feel how terrifying that sword aura is. The outsider doesn't dare clash with that swordswoman and chooses to leave; I reckon he'll soon come looking for us here. Kid, should we take care of him?

Since we've come this far, we can't let him leave alive.

We killed Fifth Heavy Mountain, and we'll kill this outsider too—leave no survivors.

Chen Chuyang narrowed his eyes, thinking.

Heishanyang continued: "Given those outsiders' nature, they won't let anyone connected to the Wild Dragon Snake Cave Heaven go. He'll soon find clues and come looking for you here. Rather than let him cause trouble for others, let's kill him first."

He happens to be nearby. If we strike fast enough before others react, we can kill him first. I'll help you destroy the corpse and erase traces—I guarantee no one will find out, and even if they do, they won't talk.

Outsiders are shouted down by everyone; they lack the strength to act. Believe me, if you, kid, strike once and kill an outsider, no one besides outsiders will dare cause trouble inside or outside Longshe Cheng.

Doing this has benefits: it will deter others, especially sect members. Everyone knows how terrifying an outsider is; if they think of moving against Longshe Cheng, they'll have to weigh their own strength.

Furthermore, it lets them cultivate in peace; there will be no fighting for the next few years.

This disturbance caused by the Wild Dragon Snake Cave Heaven was huge; many died, including Fifth Heavy Mountain. Many have set their sights on Longshe Cheng, but the person who seized the Wild Dragon Snake's corpse hasn't appeared—we don't know who took it. Could it be that the corpse is still in Longshe Cheng?

It's not just one or two people thinking this; after all, few know what happened in the Wild Dragon Snake Cave Heaven, and no one knows how those forces and people will react.

Given the nature of those forces, they won't give up until they find it.

Kid, doing this brings more benefit than harm, but we'll eventually be exposed here. Those outsiders aren't fools; they won't stay deceived for long—you need to prepare in advance.

Moreover, your strength keeps growing; even I can't see through it.

Always hiding isn't a solution; others will think you're easy to bully.

Strike once, and those people won't dare act recklessly.

This is exactly what Heishanyang wants.

From now on, if those outsiders descend, they'll also head for Longshe Shan.

The downsides are clear, but it can also protect the Chen clan inside Longshe Cheng—isn't that exactly what Chen Chuyang wants?

Chen Chuyang thought for a long time, lifted his head, and stared at Heishanyang: "Where is the person?"

Heishanyang laughed: "Come with me; in combat I might not match you, but in tracking people I can leave you worlds behind."

Chen Chuyang: "……"

You're a goat, not a dog.

Chen Chuyang sent a mental message to Shang Hongxue, telling her to stay put on the mountain while he went out.

Then, following Heishanyang, he left Longshe Shan.

He went north all the way.

He walked for the time it takes to burn an incense stick.

Heishanyang suddenly exclaimed excitedly: "Found him, kid—he's right ahead."

Chen Chuyang raised his hand to conceal their presence, landed on the ground, and blended with the surroundings.

Then he led Heishanyang forward; this maneuver amazed Heishanyang. At the same time, glancing at Chen Chuyang, his aura seemed off—their auras had vanished, completely merging with the mountain forest; they were the forest, and the forest was them.

This move is somewhat heaven-defying.

After walking a quarter hour, they slowed their steps and approached that person.

Du Xuzi stopped his steps, looked around, and assumed a fighting stance.

In that instant, he sensed danger.

That danger was close and getting closer.

"Who's there? Come out!"

Heishanyang raised his head, saw the unrest in Chen Chuyang's pupils—they had been discovered.

Chen Chuyang didn't care at all and walked out slowly.

Du Xuzi saw a person and a goat walk out, his gaze turning cold.

His pupils locked onto Chen Chuyang as he coldly said: "Kid, was it you who killed Fifth Heavy Mountain?"

To find him and dare appear before him—aside from the killer, there's no one else.

For this person to dare show up before him is absurd.

This is not taking him seriously.

Outsider, you shouldn't have come, and you shouldn't have gone to Longshe Cheng.

Chen Chuyang spoke slowly, raising his right hand; the power of heaven and earth was controlled in his palm.

It was as if heaven and earth lay in his palm.

Du Xuzi felt that pressure, his expression turning grim.

Heaven and earth's power—you can actually control it? You're not of this world?

Which faction are you from? My lord is of the Mu Long Family.

Offend the Mu Long Family, and you know the consequences.

Chen Chuyang acted as if he hadn't heard, clenching his right hand.

Du Xuzi's body shuddered, and a mouthful of blood spurted out.

Pfft.

His body deformed, his chest caved in.

The heavenly power pressed on his body, which he could not resist.

"You..."

"You talk a lot." Chen Chuyang coldly clasped his hands, palms together.

Du Xuzi's body, kneaded together, became a pile of meat paste.

The inner elixir floated in midair, and Du Xuzi's soul was also on the inner elixir, wanting to escape.

"Ah, why bother?"

He reached out, and that inner elixir was held in his palm.

Pill Fire burned, and Du Xuzi's soul let out a miserable scream.

"Ah—"

The miserable scream rang out, and his soul dissipated along with it.

There was still one inner elixir left; Chen Chuyang casually tossed it, and Heishanyang opened its mouth, swallowing it together with that meat paste.

"Tsk tsk, the taste is really not bad."

Heishanyang didn't forget to comment.

His gaze fixed on Chen Chuyang, utterly shocked.

The move was too fast; Du Xuzi couldn't even resist, and was instantly killed.

This scene made it very excited; this master is too powerful, too suitable for it.

No nonsense, no pretense—kill first, talk later.

Such methods are very decisive, and also……swift; Heishanyang likes such a master, and only such a master can survive to the end.

"Traces."

Heishanyang said: "I know, brat, watch me."

Opening its mouth, it devoured again; all traces were erased along with it.

Around, there were no traces of them left.

Du Xuzi's existence was also erased.

Nothing remained.

Chen Chuyang glanced, nodded satisfied: "Not bad, some methods."

"These outsiders don't seem very strong either; they just died, boring."

Heishanyang: "……"
