Chapter Index

Hu Jiao’er has always been stronger than her younger sister. Usually, when she meets Old Fang, she will still respectfully call him senior, but at this moment, seeing that he actually wants to kill Yang Kai, she couldn’t help but scold him as an old bastard.

Old Fang’s face turned iron blue from being scolded. Due to the identity of this woman, he didn’t dare to attack on the spot but just said with a sullen face, “With his appearance, isn’t it berserk?”

Hu Jiao’er sneered, “If he went berserk, could we still stand beside him safely? Are you blind?”

Both Elder Fang and Elder Xu were stunned at the same time. After thinking about it, they also felt a bit confused. Yang Kai’s current state was completely beyond their comprehension. Under the influence of that soaring murderous aura, it was impossible for him to still have his sanity. But looking at his eyes, they were clearly calm and steady, without any of the eyes that should have been there after going berserk.

“Besides, you only saw him kill Cheng Ming. Have you ever thought about what that old guy did to him?” Hu Jiao’er raised her voice and asked.

Elder Fang moved his mouth and stammered for a while before saying, “I only believe what I see.”

Hu Jiao’er sneered again and again: “Half a month ago, the people from Lei Guang and Fei Hong Courtyard suffered a great loss at his hands. Today, they left the front line ahead of time and returned here. I think you can guess what their purpose is. Even if Yang Kai really killed them, it was out of self-defense. All these dead people are to blame for their own actions. What does it have to do with him? Could it be that when someone comes to kill you, you still have to stretch out your neck and let others chop it off, and not allow resistance?”

Guan Chile also nodded and said: “What the eldest lady said is right. The people from Lei Guang and Fei Hong Courtyard not only disobeyed the order and acted privately, but also returned here ahead of time, attempting to attack and kill their comrades. Please ask Young Master Xiang to uphold “justice!”

“Please ask Young Master Xiang to uphold justice!” Fang Ziqi had a smile on the corner of his mouth and also shouted loudly.

Xiang Chu smiled faintly and said: “If this is really the case, then I will naturally not shirk my responsibility. I will definitely punish the people from Lei Guang and Fei Hong Courtyard to serve as a warning to others!

Pausing for a moment, Xiang Chu continued, “But this is just your speculation after all. You all came back with me. I didn’t see how things developed, and naturally neither did you. Well, let the two sides who had the conflict tell us what exactly happened, okay?”

“I have no objection!” Yang Kai chuckled.

“As long as this friend understands.” Xiang Chu nodded. He turned his head and looked around, saying, “Elder Fang, Elder Xu, bring the still alive people over!”

“Yes!” Two Divine Movement Realm cultivators flew out. In a short while, they brought all the still alive people back.

Many of these people were seriously injured and couldn’t get up. Although Xie Rong and Li Fu weren’t in such a sorry state, their bodies couldn’t help but tremble either.

Quietly taking a glance at Yang Kai, the two quickly and nervously retracted their gazes. The other young disciples didn’t even dare to look at Yang Kai.

The battle just now had scared them out of their wits.

Even their elders, who were such powerful experts, were killed by Yang Kai with a single move. How could they, these young people, have the ability to resist?

“Xie Rong, Li Fu.” Xiang Chu called out softly.

“Y-y-yes.” Xie Rong trembled like a sieve, and his response was extremely unsteady. Li Fu only gave a soft hmm.

Xiang Chu’s brows furrowed slightly, and then he suddenly said gently, “You two should have seen everything that happened just now, right?”

“Y-y-yes.”

“Then tell the matter truthfully, leaving nothing out. If there is any falsehood or concealment, you know the consequences!” Xiang Chu said with a light smile.

Xie Rong and Li Fu looked at each other, and neither of them dared to speak.

Hu Jiao’er sneered: “Guilty conscience.”

Xiang Chu rubbed his forehead and said with a bitter smile: “Jiao’er, before the matter is settled, it’s better not to say that.”

Hu Jiao’er snorted coldly: “Young Master Xiang, I don’t want to remind you again. Please don’t call me that, okay?”

“Sorry, sorry. It was a slip of the tongue for a moment.” Xiang Chu didn’t feel embarrassed at all and repeatedly cupped his hands. Then he looked at Xie Rong and Li Fu and said, “If you don’t dare to speak, then this young master can consider that you are in the wrong first, and I can kill you now!”

Xie Rong and Li Fu couldn’t help but tremble, looking at Xiang Chu in horror.

Xiang Chu added: “However, if you have any grievances, this young master can also uphold justice for you!”

Upon hearing this, the people from Wind and Rain Tower and Blood Battle Gang couldn’t help but look a little gloomy.

Xiang Chu’s words didn’t sound wrong, but after careful consideration, they had great implications.

Sure enough, after looking at each other, the panicked emotions of Xie Rong and Li Fu gradually subsided, as if they had found a backer.

Li Fu said: “Xie Rong, you speak.”

Xie Rong swallowed his saliva, gritted his teeth, and nodded: “Okay.”

Taking a deep breath, he didn’t dare to look at Yang Kai, and said in a low and mournful voice: “Today, our two sects fought on Taifang Mountain, chased a group of warriors from the Cangyun Evil Land, and after killing them all, we found that we were not far from the camp, so we didn’t go to gather with Young Master Xiang and you. Instead, we simply came back directly.”

“Bullshit!” Hu Jiao’er couldn’t help but shout coquettishly. “Since the battle started, I haven’t seen you again. Where did you go to chase the warriors from the Cangyun Evil Land? Clearly, you had a premeditated plan and came back directly!”

“We didn’t. Young Master Xiang, every word I said is true. If you don’t believe me, you can go and check at the western foot now. There should still be some corpses left there.”

Xiang Chu nodded slightly: “I will check. For now, I will assume that you went to chase the enemy, but… failing to return and gather in time is also the fault of your two sects. I will deal with this matter severely. Do you have any complaints?”

“No!” Xie Rong and Li Fu shook their heads simultaneously.

The Hu sisters were so angry that their delicate chests heaved. Although Xiang Chu seemed to handle the matter properly, passing it off so lightly was clearly favoring the people from Lei Guang and Fei Hong Courtyard.

“Continue!” Xiang Chu motioned.

“After we returned here with our respective elders, we were originally going to wait for Young Master Xiang and you to return and then report. But unexpectedly, while we were resting, we suddenly felt a soaring evil aura.”

“Soaring evil aura?” Xiang Chu raised his eyebrows.

“Well, we have never felt such an evil aura. The elders of the two sects thought that some powerful evil demons had arrived, so they led us to meet the enemy. But when we followed the aura to the place, we suddenly found that the evil demon was actually… actually…”

“Actually what?”

“Actually that person.”

“Which person?” Xiang Chu asked eagerly.

“The person that the Hu sisters brought back a few days ago!” Xie Rong gritted his teeth and replied in a deep voice.

Xiang Chu looked up at Yang Kai. The latter smiled at him.

The smile was plain and the expression was calm, which made Xiang Chu can’t help stunned for a while.

“And then?” Xiang Chu turned his gaze away and asked.

“And then… that person attacked us like crazy, and the elders of the two sects couldn’t stop him. Countless disciples died and were injured. In the end, it was only because the two elders sacrificed their own lives that we were able to protect the rest of us.” Xie Rong said this with a heartbroken look, pounding his chest and stamping his feet. He wailed, “Please, Young Master Xiang, make the decision for our two sects and avenge the dead brothers and sisters and elders!”

Li Fu also cried like a pear flower in the rain in a timely manner, wiping the corner of her eyes and choking, “Please, Young Master Xiang, make the decision. I swear that I will not be a human being if this is not avenged!

Hearing what they said, the people of the Blood Battle Gang and the Wind and Rain Tower gritted their teeth and secretly hated in their hearts.

Xiang Chu was silent for a while and then said, “Get up.”

“If Young Master Xiang is unable to uphold justice for us and kill that evil demon, we will kneel here and not get up!” Xie Rong and Li Fu kowtowed with their heads touching the ground.

Xiang Chu’s face showed displeasure. He said, “The matter is not yet clear. This is only your one-sided statement. If you wish to kneel, then kneel here.”

Raising his eyelids, he looked at Yang Kai with a smile and said, “This friend, do you have anything to say? I, Xiang, am not the kind of person who can’t tell right from wrong. If you have something to say, I will listen attentively.”

The Hu sisters immediately looked at Yang Kai nervously.

Yang Kai shrugged and said indifferently, “No!”

“Yang Kai!” Hu Jiao’er’s face suddenly changed in horror. She nervously grabbed his arm.

Xiang Chu was also quite surprised and looked at him in surprise, seemingly not expecting that he wouldn’t defend himself either.

Looking at his calm expression, Xiang Chu had a bad feeling.

He didn’t dare to defend himself and didn’t show any nervousness. Obviously, he wasn’t afraid that something would happen to him at all. Was this person arrogant or confident?

“Yang Kai, say a few words. They are slandering you. How can you not say anything?” Hu Mei’er was also in a hurry.

Yang Kai smiled faintly and said, “If you want to impose a crime, there is no shortage of pretexts.”

The Hu sisters’ expressions froze. Only then did they suddenly remember that even if Yang Kai defended himself, it might be useless. His current state was enough for the people here to classify him as an evil demon!

Everyone is currently at war with the Cangyun Evil Land. What does it mean for a devil to appear here? Everyone can kill him. So even if Lei Guang and the people from the Feihong Courtyard made the first move, Yang Kai still can’t claim to be in the right.

Excuse me, it’s just a waste of saliva!

His face gradually sank, and Yang Kai sneered, “Whether I’m a human or a devil, it’s not up to outsiders to judge.”

Xiang Chu’s eyelids couldn’t help but twitch, and he stared closely at Yang Kai.

It was a long while before he said, “Does this friend mean that I don’t have the qualification to judge you either?”

“Do you deserve it?” Yang Kai looked at him indifferently.

“Presumptuous!” Old Fang shouted angrily. “The Xiang family is a first-class aristocratic family, and the young master is the person in charge here. What are you, daring to talk to the young master like this?”

“A first-class aristocratic family, what great prestige!” Yang Kai laughed loudly.

“Today, this young master will let you see the prestige of a first-class aristocratic family!” Xiang Chu was also enraged by Yang Kai. With a cold snort, he said, “Old Fang, Old Xu, capture this devil.”

“Yes!” The two Divine Movement Jing experts responded and moved.

“How dare you!” The Hu family sisters immediately flashed out, and their delicate bodies blocked in front of Yang Kai.

Xiang Chu’s face sank, and a hint of viciousness flashed in his eyes. He took a deep breath and said, “Two girls, if you don’t want to get hurt, stay away. If you continue to be stubborn, this young master will arrest you together on the charge of your two families having private dealings with the devil!”

“What a big hat!” Guan Chile took a step forward and sneered. “Young Master Xiang, is this how your Xiang family handles things?”

Xiang Chu’s face was gloomy. “This is how I, Xiang Chu, handle things! If the evil demons are not eradicated, people’s hearts will not be at ease!”
