Chapter 95 The Plan
1664 Words
As the family master, Chu Shengxi had to make a concession under the situation. He could protect the family members in a short period at least for now.
In his opinion, there was room to negotiate about the future trends, and the most important job right now was to save Chu Tian.
Chu Shengxi looked at Chu Ying and asked in a deep voice, "We have made a concession. Can you let go of Chu Tian first? Then we will have him cured."
"Of course." Chu Ying smiled coldly and got the ghostly spear back. He put it vertically on the floor and turned around, facing Chu Shengxi.
The servant who had brought them here curled up in a corner and trembled, with disbelief in his eyes. Was that the second young master Chu Ying? How could he...
"Han Cheng, come and take the young master to the doctor!" Chu Shengxi ordered.
The servant called Han Cheng hurriedly got up and summoned some people at the door. Then they ran to Chu Tian lying on the floor and carried him, walking out of the room.
Yuan Huan stayed silent in the distance and watched Chu Tian being carried out. Then he walked to Chu Ying and stood side by side with him. He stared at Chu Shengxi and Ms. He next to him and expressed impassively, "Master, since you have agreed to join our group, you should make some contributions, right?"
Yuan Huan said in an ordering tone, and Chu Shengxi could feel that although the breath from Yuan Huan couldn't compare with Chu Ying's breath like a demon's, it was weird. And he couldn't guess how powerful this visitor was.
"What should we do?" Chu Shengxi asked in a deep voice. From the bottom of his heart, he still rejected joining the group of warriors with ritual articles in the Elemental Star Headquarters, so he agreed on the surface, but his attitude was stiff.
"It's very easy," Yuan Huan answered, in a relieved tone, as if what he would tell them to do was as easy as eating an apple.
"You need to send some powerful men to the Xing family with us and kill them," Yuan Huan added indifferently. He mentioned killing people casually.
"Kill the Xing family?" Chu Shengxi was shocked and asked.
"Right, kill the Xing family. I will make them disappear from this world in the near future. This is their ending as they dare to turn against the group of warriors with ritual articles," Yuan Huan said, with cold light flashing and killing intent emerging in his eyes.
Chu Ying stood aside, and his eyes returned calm. He had finished his job, and the next negotiation would be left to Yuan Huan. He just stood there quietly with the ghostly spear in his hand, still giving people horrible pressure.
"Kill the Xing family? Aha..." Chu Shengxi talked to himself, and his eyes were distracted. It seemed that he was thinking about something, but soon he returned normal.
"How many people do you need?" He asked.
"Only ten powerful men with ritual articles at the peak of Red Level," Yuan Huan answered.
"Only ten?" Chu Shengxi frowned slightly and looked at Yuan Huan, saying in doubt, "Only these people can hardly wipe out the huge Xing family. Moreover, I have heard that there are two huge magical circles in the Xing family protecting them. It's easy for them to defend, yet they are hard to conquer."
"We have our ways," Yuan Huan didn't say more. He didn't need to tell the Chu family about the details of this task.
"You just need to follow our orders," He added impassively.
Chu Shengxi was unhappy to see such a lofty attitude, but he didn't lose temper. He said in a deep voice, "You may not know the Xing family's strength. The magical circles' defenses can't be broken randomly. I can send an elder from our Chu family to go with you. He has unique solutions to batter down the defenses of the magical circles."
Yuan Huan nodded slightly and agreed.
"But don't think too much. I don't want to help you. I just don't want our ten powerful men to court death for nothing," Chu Shengxi continued. What he could do was agree to their request at most, yet he didn't think that his family was subject to others.
Yuan Huan didn't care about Chu Shengxi's reactions. They only needed a family to follow their orders, and it had nothing to do with them whether the people in the family were willing to, and even the life and death of the family members had little to do with them.
They did have a plan to break the Xing family's magical circles, but some people needed to lose their lives to provide powerful energy. That was why he asked the Chu family to choose ten powerful warriors with ritual articles.
At this time, Chu Shengxi suggested letting an elder go with them. Obviously he had found something wrong, yet it would make Yuan Huan and the others save much energy, so it was something nice.
"Okay. Since you will send more people to help us, of course, they are welcome, Master Chu." Yuan Huan smiled and had a different opinion about Chu Shengxi.
He always thought that Chu Shengxi seemed not averse to this task but felt joyful. Although this family master looked displeased, he was thoughtful, as if he had been prepared.
"Okay," Chu Shengxi responded. "That elder of our family is staying secluded, and it's the final phase. He will come out in three days. Is that OK?"
"Of course. Then we will set out in five days. Thanks for arranging the people needed for us, Master Chu," Yuan Huan replied. Then he left this room with Chu Ying. They didn't say goodbye but left only two horrible receding figures.
Ms. He couldn't control herself anymore. She rushed into Chu Shengxi's arms and sobbed too much to speak.
"Well. Chu Tian will be alright, while perhaps his right arm can hardly lift a ritual article. Alas..." Chu Shengxi comforted her, with helplessness in his eyes.
He supported Ms. He, and they left this meeting hall with complicated memories.
...
On a starry night.
On the roof at the top of the Chu family's villa, two figures stood in the breeze.
"You have come?" One of them asked casually. His voice was deep and masculine. He was the master of the Chu family, Chu Shengxi.
"Yes," The other answered respectfully. A middle-aged man stood next to Chu Shengxi. He was dressed in simple black wide clothes, and the solid muscles were revealed, with a strong sense of explosion. It was the elder of the Chu family, Chu Nan. He was almost at the same age as Chu Shengxi, but he had impressive attainments in skills of ritual articles and making ritual articles.
"Do you know why I asked them to give us three days yesterday even though you can come out today?" Chu Shengxi asked unhurriedly.
"No. Did you keep some methods?" Chu Nan asked in confusion.
"Do you remember the engagement of the lady from the Jin family and Chu Tian?"
"Of course."
"Ten years have passed. The Xing family develops rapidly, and we can't catch up with them. If the engagement didn't bind us to the Jin family, we would have been destroyed by the Xing family a few years ago." While speaking, Chu Shengxi paused for a moment and took a deep breath. Then he continued.
"Now the Xing family has joined the Bloodline Warriors in the Elemental Star Headquarters, and their strength's promotion can't be imagined. If we don't weaken them or kill them earlier, they will threaten us greatly in the future.
"The people from the group of warriors with ritual articles in the Elemental Star Headquarters came this time, and they happened to coincide with us on this point, but I can hardly accept their aggressive and lofty attitude. What I fear most is that after we help them deal with the Xing family, the Bloodline Warriors in the Elemental Star Headquarters will take revenge on us." Chu Shengxi analyzed.
"Then the group of warriors with ritual articles will stand by and watch the Bloodline Warriors get back at us, as if nothing has happened," Chu Nan spoke out the consequence.
"Right. If the engagement of Miss Jin and Chu Tian is still effective, I won't consider these. After all, with the help of the Jin family in magical circles, we won't be afraid. But it's different now. Chu Tian has lost an arm, and I am worried that after the Jin family know that, they will break off the engagement which is not solid."
"So you want to..." Chu Nan asked tentatively.
"Some people from the Jin family will come to see Chu Tian in two days at regular intervals. I want you to make a ritual article within two days which can make Chu Tian's right arm like real. We can't let this matter threaten our family's safety," Chu Shengxi said seriously.
"Two days?" Chu Nan asked hesitantly.
"Right. If you can't make it, you will take the consequence." Chu Shengxi turned around and left after saying that coldly.
Chu Nan shook his head and whispered, "It's not difficult to make a ritual article within two days. It's no problem to daily use the low-quality arm made within only two days, while I can't ensure it in battles. Moreover, once it is installed in the human body, it can't be changed. Master doesn't consider Tian's feelings at all."
While speaking, Chu Nan sighed and then flew up, falling in a small room in the depths of the villa. It was his room to make ritual articles. He wanted to make it as soon as possible and tried to let Chu Tian get a right arm, which was not so low-quality. That was all.
