Chapter 352: The Fall of the Martial Ancestor

After finishing this sentence, Chen Yu turned and left, disappearing from the scene in a few leaps.

Mu Chengcang stood blankly on the spot; suddenly, with several popping sounds, several sprays of blood erupted from his chest.

He spat out a mouthful of fresh blood, a mist of blood exploded from his body, and Mu Chengcang looked up at the sky and fell straight backward.

"Master..."

"Senior Brother."

The scene immediately fell into chaos; no one had expected that the renowned Master Mu would actually be defeated in Fengling by a nameless junior.

"No wonder little Chen wasn't panicked at all; it turns out he had nothing to fear," Old Hong said with a chuckle.

"Indeed, the waves of the Yangtze River push the ones in front; from now on, the name of Mu Chengcang will no longer be among the Northern School Grandmasters," Li Xuanling nodded slightly and stood up.

Returning home, Chen Yu collapsed and fell asleep; this battle had pushed him to his limit, and although he had broken through the Profound Mysterious Sacred Clarity Scripture at the final moment, the energy expended was immense.

This sleep lasted for a day and a night, and it wasn't until noon the next day that he woke up with a start.

After waking, he found himself staring directly into the eyes of Ning Ruoxue.

"How long have I slept? Why are you here?" Chen Yu sat up abruptly.

"Don't worry, you only slept for a day and a night. If I don't watch over you, who will take care of you?" Ning Ruoxue rolled her eyes at Chen Yu.

"When... when did you arrive?" Chen Yu gave a sheepish smile.

"I came right after you returned. When I knocked and no one answered, I just came in. After I got in, I found you sleeping like a pig," Ning Ruoxue said leisurely. "You're lucky it was me; if it had been someone else, who knows if they might have had ulterior motives toward you."

"Then thank you," Chen Yu gave a bitter smile. "Thank you for not having ulterior motives toward me."

"I actually wanted to," Ning Ruoxue tilted her head and stared at Chen Yu. "But you have to give me the chance. You were sleeping like that; even if I had the heart, I wouldn't have the strength."

"How is the situation now?" Chen Yu asked.

"It didn't cause too much of a stir. Mu Chengcang has lost all his Cultivation and has already returned to his hometown. At his age, having lost all his Cultivation, I'm afraid he won't live much longer," Ning Ruoxue said indifferently.

"And the Yu Family?" Chen Yu asked.

"Yu Lingxuan of the Yu Family is definitely not reconciled. She is mobilizing resources and gathering powerful killers, intending to fight you to the death," Ning Ruoxue said.

"Then I'll have to go and meet her. If this person isn't removed, I won't be able to sleep soundly," Chen Yu sneered.

Night, Yu Clan mansion.

The Yu Clan residence was brightly lit, as bright as day; the mourning hall Yu Lingxuan had set up for her daughter had not yet been removed.

Nearly a hundred people had already been gathered in the courtyard; these people wore white flowers on their chests and were lined up neatly in the courtyard.

These were the majority of the forces the Yu Clan could mobilize; in addition, there were over thirty Blood Guards hidden in the shadows, all dressed in black robes and concealed in the darkness.

They were death soldiers, beings born to never see the light; they only walked in the dead of night, silently severing the heads of their enemies.

Besides these, there were some mercenaries and killers from abroad; this was all the power Yu Lingxuan had gathered in the shortest possible time.

"Is everything ready?" Yu Lingxuan was dressed in white, wearing a white flower on her head, her face plain and unadorned.

"Sister, everything is ready, but... are we sure we want to do this?" Yu Zu stepped forward.

"What else? What other choice do I have? Even Mu Chengcang was defeated by Chen Yu's hands. Besides gathering all the power of the Yu Clan to fight him to the death, what else can I do?"

Yu Lingxuan said sternly, "Split into three groups: one group to Yaoshan to wipe out Chen Yu's father, and one group to Biyue Lake to capture Chen Yu's wife and daughter. Tonight, no matter what forces intervene, kill without mercy."

Yu Zu's expression changed; Yu Lingxuan had gone mad. She was openly starting a war in Fengling, which was not permitted by those above.

Private grievances naturally had their own ways of being resolved; sometimes those above would turn a blind eye, as what they sought above all was "stability."

But Yu Lingxuan's approach was a decision to start a major conflict; this would not only fail to avenge her but would very likely lead the Yu Clan to total ruin.

"Did you not hear my words?" Seeing Yu Zu standing motionless, Yu Lingxuan was furious.

"Sister, let's reconsider this matter. Even Master Mu was defeated; Chen Yu is not so easy to deal with," Yu Zu said with his head bowed.

"Are you the Head of Family, or am I?" Yu Lingxuan stared fixedly at Yu Zu. "Remember, you are just an orphan picked up by the Yu Family. If it weren't for the Yu Family, you would have died in a trash heap."

"The old master thought highly of you and recognized you as an adopted son of the Yu Family, but don't really think you are one of the Yu Family. You are just a dog raised by the Yu Family; you must do whatever I tell you to do," Yu Lingxuan said sternly.

A flash of hatred crossed Yu Zu's eyes: "Sister, I am also doing this for the good of the Yu Family. Do you really want to drag the entire Yu Family to their deaths?"

"I am the one who calls the shots in the Yu Family now. As long as Chen Yu is alive, Sichun will never have peace. Now, do as I say immediately. Even if I can't kill Chen Yu today, I will kill his closest kin."

"Yu Lingxuan, you are courting death yourself." A cold voice came, and the Yu Clan gate was kicked open from the outside with a boom.

Chen Yu stepped out, and he was already in the courtyard. Behind him were thirty members of the Swift Shadow, all filled with killing intent and looking fierce.

"Chen Yu, you still dare to come to our Yu Clan?" Yu Lingxuan stared at Chen Yu angrily. "Fine, since you've come, I don't need to rack my brains to find you. Leave your life here today."

"Even Mu Chengcang couldn't do anything to me; do you really think these rabble are my opponents?" Chen Yu glanced at Yu Lingxuan.

"Heh, we are rabble?" Yu Lingxuan tilted her head and stared at Chen Yu. With a wave of her hand, several people behind her suddenly reached to their waists and drew guns.

Over a dozen guns were aimed at Chen Yu, and Yu Lingxuan said sternly, "Chen Yu, I admit you are indeed powerful. I didn't expect your strength to have actually reached the realm of a Martial Ancestor."

"But so what? You are only flesh and blood. No matter how powerful or fast you are, can you be faster than the bullets in my hand?" Yu Lingxuan said coldly.

"You still won't give up. To be honest, Yu Sichun deserved to die. By eliminating her, I even accumulated some merit for myself. Do you know why? Because she was an evil person who had long since angered both heaven and man. Even without me, someone else would have made her die," Chen Yu smiled.

"This is the Heavenly Dao, and no one can change it."

"Shut up! My daughter was a princess held in the palm of my hand from the time she was small. Even if she wanted the stars in the sky, I would find a way to get them for her. Who do you think you are? You made me lose her, and I will make you suffer."
