Chapter 832: Demanding an Explanation
It must be said that the movement technique of the Six Ghosts is extremely formidable; although one of Lao Gui's legs was shattered by an arrow from Chen Yu, he was still running extremely fast.
It is just that this fellow does not know that an apricot-yellow Talisman has already appeared on his back.
Lao Gui fled all the way, quickly escaping out of this patch of woods; he covered several zhang with each leap, and in less than a few breaths, he was already several kilometers away from Chen Yu.
Lao Gui's heart was filled with wild joy; he believed he had escaped Chen Yu's control, and he had extreme confidence in his own movement technique, feeling that since he had fled so far, Chen Yu would certainly be unable to catch up to him.
But immediately, he felt heartbroken again; he and his five siblings were almost invincible in the Mangshan area, and they could walk sideways there.
Yet he never imagined that this seemingly simple mission would cause him to lose the lives of all his brothers here; he secretly made a resolution that one day he must return, and he must kill Chen Yu to avenge his brothers.
Chen Yu's Divine Sense still locked onto Lao Gui's figure; seeing that he had run far enough, he smiled slightly, took out a Talisman, stuck it onto an arrow, and then nocked it to his bow and stepped forward.
With a slight pull, the bow was drawn into a full moon; the arrow in Chen Yu's hand pointed straight at the sky, and then, with a release of his hand, the arrow was shot out.
The arrow gave a light whistle in mid-air, then transformed into a streak of light, moving at extreme speed in the direction Lao Gui had just fled.
Lao Gui, who was fleeing rapidly forward, suddenly felt a wave of killing intent coming from behind; he looked back and was scared out of his wits, only to see an arrow wrapped in yellow light flying toward him at high speed.
With a 'shoo' sound, the arrow pierced straight into his back; his body was carried forward by the powerful force, and with a 'pfft' sound, his body was pinned to a large tree in front.
At the same time, the apricot-yellow Talisman stuck to his back instantly ignited, and then a mass of crimson fire surged up; Lao Gui let out a desperate scream.
After the great fire, Lao Gui's figure turned into a charred corpse, and from then on, the Mangshan Six Ghosts, who had committed every evil, completely disappeared from this world.
After wiping out the Six Ghosts, Chen Yu returned to the hospital.
Mu Xi had already woken up, and He Lingyun was keeping her company in the ward.
"Is it all resolved?" Seeing Chen Yu return, He Lingyun asked.
"Yes, it's all resolved," Chen Yu nodded and said: "Has the person behind the scenes been confirmed?"
"Confirmed, it is Qiu Yanfang," He Lingyun said indifferently: "It has been over twenty years, and she has finally made her move."
"Why does she want to kill you?" Chen Yu clenched his fists tightly: "Is it not enough to have destroyed your family and stolen your husband?"
"Not enough, far from enough," He Lingyun smiled, and she slowly stood up and said: "This is a woman with an extremely strong desire for control; the things she wants to obtain must be under absolute control, and my existence has always been a threat to her."
"What is she afraid of? Could it be that she is still afraid that Chen Anyi might have a change of heart one day?" Chen Yu said coldly.
"That is not impossible," Mu Xi suddenly spoke up: "My people have already found out that Chen Anyi currently has no power to control the Chen Family."
"And when you saw him last time, he was merely superficially glamorous, but it is rumored that his status in the Chen Family is very low," Mu Xi said.
"Why is that?" Chen Yu's brows furrowed slightly.
"Qiu Yanfang married him only to control the Chen Family, and as for why he suddenly divorced back then and turned around to marry such a woman, that is not something we should be able to know."
"I will find a way to see him," Chen Yu nodded, and he said coldly: "But before that, I must go to the Chen Family to take a look and question Qiu Yanfang to her face if she wants to die."
At the Chen Family, Qiu Yanfang was fiddling with some flowers in the small garden when a bodyguard ran over in a hurry: "Head of Family's wife, the mission failed."
*Click*, Qiu Yanfang, who was pruning a bonsai, had a twitch in her hand, and that beautiful flower branch was cut off by her forcibly.
Looking at the ruined bonsai, Qiu Yanfang suddenly threw the bonsai onto the ground and said sharply: "Why did it fail? What about the Six Ghosts? Aren't they known as the top assassins in the country?"
"The Six Ghosts are all dead, with no remains left, and this time there was also military involvement," the bodyguard lowered his head slightly and said.
"I actually underestimated Chen Yu's influence, hehe, but it doesn't matter, I will play with them slowly," Qiu Yanfang sneered: "What about Chen Anyi?"
"The Head of Family is still in the study," the bodyguard said.
Qiu Yanfang said nothing and turned to go to the study.
In the study, Chen Anyi was still wielding his brush and splashing ink, only the calligraphy he wrote today had a condensed brushwork, appearing full of killing intent.
"Chen Anyi, you really have the leisure and elegance," Qiu Yanfang stared at him and said: "I did one thing today; I found people to deal with He Lingyun. Guess what happened to her?"
Chen Anyi's writing movement stalled slightly, then he continued to write; he still maintained an appearance of being indifferent to favor or humiliation: "It doesn't matter what happened to her; it has nothing to do with me."
"She was injured. The people I found were the Mangshan Six Ghosts. Even experts in the Martial Ancestor Realm can hardly escape death under their precise layout. How do you think He Lingyun fared?" Qiu Yanfang giggled.
Chen Anyi said nothing and continued writing; seeing his indifferent expression, Qiu Yanfang suddenly felt bored.
"Are you truly determined to ignore that mother and son?" Qiu Yanfang smiled: "Very well, since that is the case, then I will plan carefully next, and take the lives of that mother and son directly."
"Head of Family's wife, it's bad, Chen Yu is here," just at this moment, a bodyguard ran over in a hurry.
"What is he here for?" Qiu Yanfang's expression stalled, and her tone became somewhat hurried; it was clear that she was still somewhat panicked.
"He said he wants to see you, and he has come with ill intent; ninety percent of our Chen Family's Internal Guards have been beaten down by him," the bodyguard's tone was somewhat nervous.
"Bastard," Qiu Yanfang was furious; she could not bother to mock Chen Anyi anymore and walked quickly toward the front courtyard.
As soon as Qiu Yanfang left, the expression of indifference to favor or humiliation on Chen Anyi's face finally loosened; he collapsed onto the ground, gasping for air in large gulps.
"Lingyun, I'm sorry, I couldn't protect you well. Over twenty years of forbearance was just to get rid of all this. You wait a little longer; I will be reunited with you all very soon," Chen Anyi muttered.
In the front courtyard of the Chen Family, bodyguards were lying on the ground in a jumble, and Chen Yu was now surrounded by those who had fallen.
"Chen Yu, what are you doing coming to our Chen Family?" Chen Shaochong rushed up, not knowing whether he was courting death; he felt that Chen Yu had come to the door specifically for him.
"Today's matter has nothing to do with you, get lost," Chen Yu said indifferently.
Chen Yu had no ill feelings toward Chen Shaochong and his family; they were merely Puppets in Qiu Yanfang's hands here.
At most, this brat Chen Shaochong was a bit of a playboy, and Chen Yu would definitely teach him a good lesson if he found the opportunity.
