Chapter 934: Shang Hongxue's Worry
There really isn't any left, brat. Even if you kill me, I still don't have it.
Heishanyang stood firm and unyielding, refusing to submit to Chen Chuyang's pressure.
Chen Chuyang directly moved against Heishanyang, searched thoroughly, found nothing. It is certain that Heishanyang left a backup; the soul it contributed originally was fine, so it must have hidden some means that Chen Chuyang cannot detect.
In that case, Chen Chuyang ought to give it a thorough check, especially regarding the soul; now his strength has increased manyfold, so naturally he should examine it carefully.
Seeing this, Heishanyang hurriedly begged for mercy: 'Kid, there really isn't any left. If I had such a scripture, I would have given it to you long ago. The Green Lotus Sword Scripture came to mind only after seeing your son; before that, I had never thought of it at all. Do you believe me?'
Chen Chuyang narrowed his eyes, staring into Heishanyang's eyes.
Heishanyang and Chen Chuyang locked gazes, neither afraid nor looking away.
After a moment of mutual stare, Chen Chuyang said, 'Are you sure about that?'
'Exactly, otherwise why would I be so shocked? I'm not that easily frightened by the Green Lotus Sword Scripture.'
Given that, everything can be explained; Heishanyang's shock and fear must mean it was set up by someone.
If so, then Heishanyang certainly hides many secrets, and likewise, there are plenty of schemes.
It is a threat that could explode at any moment.
Heishanyang read Chen Chuyang's expression and quickly said, 'Kid, rest assured, aside from this matter, I have nothing hidden from you.'
'You can't seal me away; I am sincere toward you, never having harbored any ulterior motive.'
Chen Chuyang reached out to stroke its head and said lightly, 'That would be best. You are in danger now; I don't know whether to keep you.'
Heishanyang shivered, knowing this kid was not joking.
'Gurgle.'
It was frightened, really; this kid truly wants to kill me.
'Kid, you can't act recklessly; I've helped you a lot over the years—no merit, but hard work. You can't kill me.'
Chen Chuyang smiled narrowly and said, 'I keep your contributions in mind, but you had better speak the truth, otherwise.'
'I have no secrets.' Heishanyang immediately declared; at this moment, we cannot be slow.
A moment's delay means death.
The person before it truly would kill it.
'Best that way.'
Chen Chuyang continued stroking its head, gently saying, 'You know my nature best; I don't like being deceived, and I usually dismember those who betray me.'
'You'd better pray you haven't betrayed me, otherwise.'
Heishanyang quickly bowed its head: 'I know, I will not betray you.'
Chen Chuyang released its head and said slowly, 'Remember what you said; when the time comes, I don't want to kill you, after all I've grown accustomed to your presence these years, and I don't want you dead.'
'I understand.'
Chen Chuyang liked its cleverness and also its sensibility.
Those lacking sense have long been killed.
Chen Chuyang brought Heishanyang down from the mountaintop, returned to the courtyard, cast Heishanyang aside, and strode straight into the rooms to accompany his woman and son.
Only then did Heishanyang let out a breath, its whole body nearly collapsing to the ground.
It was scared to death.
At that moment, it nearly died.
'I was scared to death; that kid really has murderous intent.'
'He surely knows about my earlier deceit; fortunately these years I haven't caused trouble, otherwise I might really be killed by this kid.'
This matter is settled; that kid won't bring up old scores again.
Heishanyang let out a breath, and at the same time became more resolved on one thing: it must not betray this kid, absolutely not.
Chen Chuyang repays grudges; once offended, no matter where you flee, he will pursue and kill you.
Until he kills you.
Inside the room.
Shang Hongxue saw Chen Chuyang return and woke up.
The son also woke once, famished; she was roused by the noise and got up to nurse him.
'Back?'
'Mm.'
Shang Hongxue looked at her husband before her and asked, 'Brother Chuyang, what is our son's physique?'
'Did you hear that?'
'Mm.' Shang Hongxue stared fixedly at Chen Chuyang, waiting for his answer.
Chen Chuyang knew he couldn't hide it from this girl and said directly, 'The son's body is the Green Lotus Sword Physique, a special constitution, just like yours.'
'Merely his physique differs somewhat; overall, it's not much different from yours.'
Then Chen Chuyang told Shang Hongxue what he had learned from Heishanyang; there was no point in hiding it, better to tell her directly so she could be mentally prepared and also get ready for the future.
Otherwise she would remain ignorant, lost in confusion.
'Specifically, this is it: I have examined and cultivated the Green Lotus Sword Scripture; there is no problem.'
'Brother Chuyang, are you sure?'
'Mm.' Chen Chuyang said, 'The Green Lotus Sword Scripture contains only the first four layers; there are no later layers, so I cannot guarantee that the later ones are problem-free. The first four layers are enough for the son to cultivate for a long time; by that point he will also have self-defense ability and can venture to Tianwai to adventure.'
'By then, it will be beyond our control.'
Shang Hongxue worriedly said, 'I know; I just worry that our son will be schemed against by others.'
She lowered her head, looking at the son lying beside her, just born yet already facing such things; it's too hard on the son.
Her eyes filled with affection; as her first son, Shang Hongxue reached out to stroke his cheek.
Don't worry, with me here, no one can hurt him.
Chen Chuyang reached out, embraced Shang Hongxue, and gently said: "As the child's father, I will not allow anyone to scheme against him, to hurt him."
I will always protect you mother and child; no one is allowed to let you suffer injustice.
Mm.
Shang Hongxue showed a smile; she believed Chen Chuyang.
With Chen Chuyang's words, Shang Hongxue will no longer worry.
The big stone in her heart was set down, and she just leaned against Chen Chuyang's embrace.
Holding his wife, looking at his son, Chen Chuyang will not allow anyone to hurt the two of them; no one can.
Even if it's the Green Lotus Sword Immortal, when it comes to that point, Chen Chuyang doesn't mind fighting him.
Chuyang brother.
I'm here.
You will always protect us mother and child, right?
Yes, I will always protect you.
Anyone who wants to hurt his wife cannot, unless they step over his corpse.
He still has plenty of time; Chen Chuyang's heart begins to feel urgent, if his strength is not enough, then it will be so.
Once again, he feels his strength is not enough.
Chen Chuyang closed his eyes, began to crave power.
Only with great strength can one protect wife, child, and family.
