78: Section 78

At this moment.

A woman of extreme beauty descended the mountain and, seeing him, asked, "Are you from the Chu Family?"

"Yes."

Chu Zhong recovered and nodded quickly.

Then, he asked again, "May I ask where the Young Master is?"

"I am the Young Master's maid. The Young Master is waiting for you on the mountain. Please come up the mountain with me!"

Zhao Chan said, then proceeded straight up the mountain.

Chu Zhong followed behind, the shock in his heart growing stronger.

Such a devastatingly beautiful woman, almost like a Fairy, was actually the Young Master's maid?

His heart was greatly shaken.

He dared not look further, only trudged up the mountain with his head down.

Soon.

He arrived at the mountain peak.

He saw a young Martial Artist dressed in white sitting in a pavilion, surrounded by surging clouds. He was immersed in it, with Dao rhythm flowing and immortal aura intertwining, like a banished immortal descending to the mortal world, supremely transcendent.

"Young Master, the person has been brought!"

Zhao Chan bowed and said softly.

"You are... Young Master?"

Upon hearing this, Chu Zhong immediately knew that this was his Young Master.

However.

He couldn't quite believe his eyes.

This figure, like a celestial being, was actually the Young Master of his Chu Family?!

"Chu Zhong, why are you here?"

While Chu Zhong was stunned, Chu Mo asked.

These words pulled Chu Zhong back to reality from his daze.

He remembered his duty for coming here, and his face instantly turned pale. He knelt on the ground with a thud: "Young Master, something has happened at home!"

Sure enough!

Chu Mo knew that something must have happened at home.

"What exactly happened? Speak!"

His heart sank, and he spoke.

Chu Zhong dared not delay and immediately recounted the matter from beginning to end.

Chu Mo once had a younger sister, only one year his junior.

Later, after he went to the Holy Land, although he never saw his sister again, when the Family occasionally sent resources, they would also send Family letters, and his sister Chu Rou would also write to him, sharing her daily life at home.

Although the two had never met, because they had Family letters to maintain contact, they had not grown estranged.

And this time, the trouble at home was because of Chu Rou.

Some time ago, she went out to play but was accidentally fancied by the son of the School Master of a local School named Cangyuan Palace.

That person, seeing Chu Rou's uncommon beauty and appearance, wanted to take her as a concubine.

However, this person was notoriously lecherous and had many evil reputations in the vicinity, so the Chu Family was naturally unwilling to push Chu Rou into a pit of fire.

But who knew that the other party would directly turn hostile and issue an ultimatum to the Chu Family, demanding that the Young Miss be sent over within half a month, otherwise, the entire Chu Family would be annihilated.

Cangyuan Palace was a powerful Upper Sect, whose prestige was immense, and it was simply incomparable to the Chu Family.

The Chu Family sought help everywhere, even bringing up Chu Mo, who was Cultivating in Taichu Holy Land, but it still failed to make Cangyuan Palace back down.

According to that scoundrel.

"If you were an Inner Sect Disciple of Taichu Holy Land, I might give you some face, but a mere Outer Sect Disciple is truly a laughingstock!"

Seeing that the name of Chu Mo, an Outer Sect Disciple of the Holy Land, could not even scare the other party.

The entire Chu Family was troubled by this, and the old madam even fell ill because of it.

Chu Mo's father immediately sent Chu Zhong to find Chu Mo and ask him if he had any solutions.

After all, Chu Mo was Cultivating in the Holy Land, and perhaps he had befriended one or two Inner Sect Disciples. If they could mediate the situation, it might resolve the Chu Family's immediate crisis.

Therefore, upon receiving the order, Chu Zhong rushed over without stopping.

After more than half a month of traveling day and night, he finally arrived here.

After listening to Chu Zhong's narration.

Chu Mo's face was ashen.

He never expected that while he was Cultivating in the Holy Land, his Family would be subjected to such humiliation.

"Cangyuan Palace!"

"They are courting death!"

Killing intent flowed from Chu Mo's heart.

Without the slightest hesitation, he immediately ordered, "Go and invite Elder Shaoguang here."

Zhao Chan nodded and turned to leave.

In a moment.

Elder Shaoguang arrived upon hearing the news.

"Young Master, you seek me?"

He bowed respectfully.

Chu Mo directly recounted the matter roughly. Upon learning the news, Elder Shaoguang was also full of anger: "Young Master, Cangyuan Palace's actions are indeed a capital offense. I will now send a message to Elder Cangming of Zhu Xuan Temple. Within three days, Cangyuan Palace will surely be captured and brought before you for your disposal."

"No need!"

Chu Mo's face was ashen, and he said in a deep voice, "This time, I will go back personally."

Cangyuan Palace's actions enraged him greatly.

If he didn't personally kill them, his anger would not subside.

Of course.

Cangyuan Palace was a minor matter; with his status, he could destroy it with a wave of his hand.

More importantly.

He hadn't been home for over ten years, and this was a good opportunity to see his parents and sister.

"Very well!"

"Since that is the case... I will go prepare the travel essentials."

Shaoguang nodded.

However.

He then suddenly spoke again: "Young Master, I wonder if you will be acting discreetly or making a grand display on this return trip?"

As soon as these words were spoken, Chu Mo immediately understood the meaning behind Elder Shaoguang's words.

Acting discreetly.

Naturally, it meant annihilating Cangyuan Palace and then reuniting with his Family.

If it was a grand display, it meant openly showcasing his status and prestige—as a Tai Chu True Disciple of Taichu Holy Land, his status was incomparably noble, and his travels would not only be accompanied by Dao Protectors but also by carriages, attendants, and guards.

Wherever he passed.

Banners would flutter, and his prestige would be immense.

All forces would need to receive him carefully, without the slightest neglect, otherwise, it would be disrespectful to Taichu Holy Land.

"Display all the pomp and circumstance, and make a grand departure!"

Chu Mo pondered for a moment and then said so.

Normally.

He would naturally not be high-profile.

But this time, he was returning not only to reunite with his Family but also to kill and establish his prestige, to let the world know that he, Chu Mo, was already a Tai Chu True Disciple!

Only in this way.

After he left, his Family would not be bullied by others.

After all.

As his Cultivation grew higher, his contact with his Family would inevitably lessen. He didn't want such things to happen again in the future, so he might as well let the world know the Chu Family's status directly this time.
