174: The background is huge, but it's all dead

Ziyun Villa.

When Jiang Chen rushed back, Cheng Yurou and the others had already cleaned up the scene.

The housekeeper, Li Yan, seemed to have very rich experience in handling corpses. She helped Cheng Yurou move the bodies from the courtyard to a secluded spot in the back mountain, threw them into a Storage Ring, and then buried the Storage Ring underground.

At the same time, she was using some special methods to clean up the bloodstains and ashes in the courtyard.

Li Yan herself did not have a very high Cultivation, so when Cheng Yurou and the others took action earlier, Li Yan did not show up, but honestly hid in her room.

"Xiao Chen, you're back!?"

Cheng Yurou and the others were cleaning the floor when they saw Jiang Chen descend from the sky.

However, upon seeing the bloodstains on Jiang Chen, Cheng Yurou and the others' eyes immediately turned red.

"Xiao Chen, are you injured?"

The women put down their tools and gathered around Jiang Chen.

"I'm fine, this isn't my blood."

"None of you are injured, are you?"

Jiang Chen patted Cheng Yurou, and at the same time, took off his outer armor, revealing no wounds.

Moreover, Jiang Chen looked to be in good condition.

The women also immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

"Young Master, these guys suddenly broke in and said they wanted to capture us, so we had no choice but to act. If Young Master wants to punish someone, please punish Sining alone."

Xia Si柠 stepped forward and said, her cherry-like lips slightly parting.

She actively stood in front of Cheng Yurou.

After all, if killing these people were to bring some very serious consequences to the Young Master, then Xia Si柠 could only proactively step forward to prevent Jiang Chen from blaming Cheng Yurou.

"Sining, I made the decision, and I will bear the consequences alone."

"Xiao Chen, these people must have very strong backgrounds, right?"

Cheng Yurou said.

She knew there was a rule in Jianghu: one person's actions, one person's responsibility.

When they acted earlier, it was because the situation was urgent; if they hadn't, everyone might have been injured. But now it was different. Now that the matter was resolved, if someone had to bear the consequences, she would bear them alone.

"Hmm, as for their background, they have a bit."

"But it doesn't matter."

"I've already annihilated their Family."

Jiang Chen looked at the women, protecting each other so harmoniously, which made him feel very relieved.

"Ah? Annihilated their Family!?"

Cheng Yurou and the others' eyes widened in surprise.

Such a thing as annihilating an entire Family, at least in their view, was quite shocking.

However, in their hearts, they all unconditionally supported Jiang Chen.

After all, without Jiang Chen, they wouldn't be where they were now.

And Jiang Chen worked hard outside.

They couldn't help much at all.

At this point, everyone felt very guilty.

"These people are not innocent. These recent movements of the Demon were all caused by them."

"Just now, you probably also felt a towering Demon Qi; that was their Family's Clan Chief."

Jiang Chen said.

After all, Cheng Yurou and the others had not yet experienced bloodshed, and they found such matters somewhat difficult to accept.

However, upon hearing that the Jin Family was actually connected to the Demon, everyone's expressions became fierce.

"Hmph, to associate with the Demon, these people truly deserve to die!"

"Exactly, we firmly support whatever Young Master does to the end!"

Xia Sixuan also clenched her small fists and nodded.

The others all nodded too.

They hadn't expected these people to be connected to the Demon.

Fortunately, they were all killed, not a single one left.

"This matter is also my fault for not controlling it well, giving them too many opportunities, and allowing them to find their way to our home."

Jiang Chen's expression was quite self-reproachful.

If it weren't for Cheng Yurou and the others' courage, then even if they had some means of self-defense, these people breaking in could have very likely caused harm to Cheng Yurou and the others.

Seeing this, Cheng Yurou immediately stepped forward and grasped Jiang Chen's hand.

"Xiao Chen, you mustn't say that."

"The dangers you face while striving outside must far exceed today's by a thousand, ten thousand times."

"We only regret not being able to share more of your burdens."

Cheng Yurou said softly.

Hearing this, Jiang Chen's heart immediately felt warm.

The other three women also nodded.

"Mm-hmm, yes, Young Master... We only blame our own insufficient strength, otherwise, we would definitely rush ahead of you to help you slay your enemies!"

Xia Sixuan waved her fists as she spoke.

At this moment, Yang Shishi walked behind Jiang Chen.

She extended both hands and gently massaged Jiang Chen's back.

Those soft hands seemed to possess infinite magic, causing Jiang Chen's exhaustion to diminish considerably for a time.

"Haha, you are all too thoughtful."

"With you helping me stabilize the rear, I can rest assured on the front lines."

"If you encounter similar problems in the future, just go ahead and do what you need to do. No matter how powerful their background, I can deal with them."

Jiang Chen said.

After this incident, Jiang Chen also made up his mind.

Anyone who dares to touch his Family.

Then no matter who they are, they must be completely eradicated!

"Alright, Young Master has worked hard fighting outside... Now, leave it to us..."

Yang Shishi's eyebrows moved.

She also knew what a man needed most when he was tired.

"Young Master, the hot water has been prepared for you."

At this moment, the graceful and dignified Li Yan also stepped forward and said softly.

This reminder was just right.

Cheng Yurou and the other women covered their mouths and smiled.

"Alright, go wash up first."

"You're covered in blood."

"We're going to change clothes. Shishi made us some different clothes a few days ago."

Cheng Yurou smiled charmingly.

Hearing this, Jiang Chen's eyes immediately lit up.

"Then I'll wait for you all..."

Soon, sounds rose and fell in the bathing room of Ziyun Villa.

This night.

The entire Cangzhou City was also extremely restless.

Even the appearance of the Demon Palace caused panic for a time.

However, fortunately, the City Lord Sheng Yuntian arrived with his people in time.

He re-Sealed the Demon Palace.

Inside Ziyun Villa.

Jiang Chen watched the women fall asleep, tired, a hint of triumph on his lips.

At the same time, there was excitement in his eyes.

"It's time to open the scroll!"

It was already late at night.

Jiang Chen came to the Cultivation room.

The Cultivation room in Ziyun Villa was also luxuriously built.

And there was a Formation that isolated it, so the commotion inside would not affect the outside.

"Let's see how much enemy kill value I've accumulated."

Jiang Chen immediately looked at his attribute panel.

Upon seeing the numbers, excitement surged in his eyes.

[Enemy Kill Value: 1375]
