172: The Past of Chu River

“Take it and leave quickly!”

Shen Xi reminded him in a low voice.

The principle that an innocent man is guilty because of his treasure is even more true in the world of Martial Artists.

Even if you do nothing, for the sake of profit, there will still be some ill-intentioned people who will try to kill you.

The Kind-faced Young Man’s strength was not enough to guard the sound transmission flower.

Now that Shen Xi was still here, even if those people were eager to act, they wouldn't dare to make a move rashly because of Shen Xi.

But once Shen Xi left, the Kind-faced Young Man would become a target.

It was precisely for this reason that Shen Xi secretly gave the Kind-faced Young Man a sound transmission flower and advised him to leave Sound Transmission Valley quickly.

“Thank you!”

The Kind-faced Young Man obviously understood this principle. He accepted the sound transmission flower, did not linger, and turned to leave the spot.

As for the others, even if they felt something was amiss, on one hand, they weren’t sure if Shen Xi had given the sound transmission flower to the Kind-faced Young Man, and on the other hand, due to Shen Xi’s presence, they could only watch the Kind-faced Young Man leave.

“We should go too.”

Shen Xi looked at his companions.

Everyone nodded quickly.

Their purpose in coming here was for the sound transmission flower; now that they had it, there was naturally no need to linger.

Their top priority now was to find the fat man and his group.

“One flower per person. At that time, notify each other of your situation at any time. Once someone is found, tell everyone.”

Shen Xi distributed two sound transmission flowers to each person.

In addition to what they needed for themselves, it was also so that once someone was found, the sound transmission flowers could be given to them to maintain contact.

“Hmm! I wonder how they are doing now.”

Chen Fang took the sound transmission flower, his eyes filled with worry.

Almost two days had passed, and he wondered if the fat man and his group had encountered any danger… At the same time.

Chu He was fleeing in a somewhat disheveled state.

Behind him, two luxuriously dressed fops let out wild laughter, following him unhurriedly like a cat toying with a mouse.

“Chu He, you might as well struggle!”

“Even if you flee to the ends of the earth, you won’t escape our grasp.”

“Oh! I almost forgot, you are now trapped in the Third Zone and cannot break the Regional Barrier, so you can only flee in a sorry state within this area. You can’t even reach the ends of the earth.”

“Hahaha, this feeling of playing with other people’s lives in the palm of our hands is simply too much fun.”

The two fops spoke in unison, not taking Chu He seriously at all.

Chu He did not retort to the taunts.

In the depths of his eyes, only a trace of hatred remained.

“I don’t like your eyes. Later, I’m going to dig out your eyeballs and step on them.”

Fop A’s face showed a hint of displeasure.

They had been chasing Chu He for a whole hour, intending to toy with him and make him beg for mercy.

But unexpectedly, Chu He remained silent, only focused on fleeing, and did not show any fear, only hatred.

This left Fop A’s pathological psychology unsatisfied.

“Heh heh, it’s normal for him to hate us. After all, his entire family died by the hands of our two families.”

Fop B clearly knew better how to provoke others’ anger.

A casual remark instantly filled Chu He with towering hatred.

“The Chu Family’s vengeance, I will definitely repay it ten-fold, a hundred-fold!”

This was the first sentence Chu He had spoken after being chased for so long.

Apparently, he knew the two fops.

And there was a deep-seated blood feud between them.

It was precisely for this reason that the two fops began their pursuit the moment they discovered Chu He, and Chu He also harbored deep hatred for the two of them from the bottom of his heart.

“Oh? So you can talk? I thought you were a mute!”

Fop A revealed a half-smile and continued, “Chu He, do you hate us two very much? Do you wish you could eat our flesh and drink our blood?”

“Tsk tsk tsk, utterly ridiculous!”

“Back then, your parents died by the hands of our parents, and now you are no exception; you will also die by our hands.”

“It was already your great fortune that you managed to escape by chance back then, but now, you are fish on a chopping board, only to be slaughtered by us. I want to see if you are still that lucky to escape again.”

Fop A grew more and more smug as he spoke, unable to help but shake his head.

Chu He was merely at the Houtian Chucheng Realm.

But they were all at the Houtian Lesser Stage.

In a one-on-one situation, they could easily kill Chu He, let alone two-on-one. This was simply a one-sided massacre.

“Xu Family, Wu Family, Wen Family…”

Fop A’s words brought back memories of past events for Chu He.

At that time, he was only six years old and had a happy family. His parents were even known as a divine couple in the Martial Artist world, not only possessing incredibly high looks, but their coordinated sword and saber techniques had dominated the Martial Artist world for over thirty years.

But everything changed one night.

Seven major powers jointly besieged Chu He’s parents.

Even though their strength was formidable, fighting many with few, they still did not fall into a disadvantage, but two fists ultimately could not contend with four hands; the number of enemies was simply too great.

Under a war of attrition, Chu He’s parents gradually ran out of stamina and were surrounded and killed.

And the seven major powers clearly did not want to leave any hidden dangers. After killing Chu He’s parents, none of Chu He’s relatives escaped their cruel hands.

Grandfather, grandmother, uncles, aunts… all of his relatives were killed that night.

Firelight and the smell of blood became the main theme of that night.

Under the protection of his relatives, Chu He feigned death and barely escaped, then became a vagrant, eventually being sold to a wealthy man and becoming a slave.

It wasn’t until recently that he met Shen Xi.

The endure and resilience in his eyes caught Shen Xi’s attention, which allowed him to escape the fate of a slave and have the Opportunity to acquire a large amount of resources, rapidly increasing his strength.

Everything was developing in a good direction, and Chu He also firmly believed that as long as he Cultivated diligently, he would one day be able to avenge his relatives.

Entering the Chasing Wind Secret Realm was also with this thought in mind; he wanted to find an Opportunity to improve his combat power.

But what he didn’t expect was that the descendants of the seven major powers also came to the Chasing Wind Secret Realm.

And among them, the younger generations of the Wen Family and Xu Family happened to be teleported to the same area as him, and they quickly discovered that he was the sole survivor of the Chu Family from back then.

Hence, this scene unfolded.

The Wen Family fop and the Xu Family fop naturally would not let Chu He go and chased him all the way.

And Chu He’s strength was not just a little bit worse than theirs. Under the absolute disparity in combat power, Chu He had no power to fight back at all.

If it weren’t for their intention to toy with him, he would have long since died without a burial place.
