C368 Your Dao Tree Can Still be Saved
"Ah!"
Accompanied by an especially painful scream, the Third Elder of Xu Family, Xu Xing, who was covered in blood all over, fell out of the Illusory Spiritual Bell. His aura was extremely dispirited and many of the blood vessels on his body burst out, as he fell down from the sky in an exceptionally sorry state.
"Third brother!"
The Second Elder, Xu Sheng, who was fighting with the Head Elder, was surprised and angry at the same time.
Xu Xing actually lost?
And it had even lost to a youth with a Cultivation at the ninth level of the Core-Transforming Stage.
Xu Sheng, who was greatly agitated, was obviously in a mess. The Great Elder Xu Kai seized the opportunity to grab onto an opening. He clasped his hands together, and countless rays of golden light rapidly gathered in front of him, accompanied by a majestic, biting cold glint. The phantom of a Broadsword once again appeared in the Great Elder's hands …
"Golden Flame Sword Art!"
Second Elder Xu Sheng, who was caught off guard, had his pupils shrink to the size of a needle and panic appeared on his face. In the next moment, the strong sword shadow dragged out a strong tail in the air and hit the opponent's chest.
A circle of Golden Light exploded in front of him, the terrifying impact was similar to a meteorite that came from the heavens, it was extremely destructive.
The space trembled violently. Xu Sheng's shirt was instantly crushed into a fine powder. His skin and flesh split open and his chest slightly caved in. Accompanied by the sound of his bones breaking, a mouthful of blood sprayed out from his mouth.
"You …" Xu Sheng's eyes were bloodshot.
"It's the will of the heavens. It seems like you will never be the master of this family!"
Xu Kai narrowed his eyes and said coldly.
Next, he raised his hand and struck the opponent's body with his palm. Xu Sheng, who had suffered two heavy attacks in a row, had his momentum pushed down to the lowest point. He had already lost the power to resist. Falling from the sky without strength
The Third Elder, whose body was covered in blood, was the first to fall to the ground, raising a cloud of dust.
After the second elder landed on the ground, he was pressed down to his knees mercilessly by the first elder.
"Everyone stop!" Great Elder's voice was as powerful as a thunderclap, and it could not be resisted as it exploded in the ears of everyone present.
In that instant, the intense battle suddenly stopped.
Xu Dingfeng's face had already turned as pale as paper. He was terrified to the extreme. His knees bent and with a plop, he kneeled on the ground. His face was replaced by a thick layer of fear …
Defeat!
He suffered a terrible defeat!
It was an extremely unexpected defeat.
Immediately after, all of the Xu Family disciples by Xu Dingfeng's side threw away the weapons in their hands and surrendered.
Chu Hen also descended from the sky like a ray of light and landed firmly on the ground.
"Chu Hen, are you alright?" Xu Yourong immediately ran over to ask, her eyes revealing a trace of concern.
Chu Hen smiled, shook his head and said, "Not bad, there's no big problem."
Before the comparison, the look in Xu Yourong's eyes when she looked at Chu Hen had clearly changed quite a bit. Until now, she still could not believe that this handsome youth in front of her, was actually the champion of the Great War of Heavenly Ranking of the six nations …
It was not only Xu Yourong, but the gazes of everyone in the entire Xu Family were a little strange.
Feeling the strangeness in Xu Yourong's eyes, Chu Hen casually replied, "What? Could it be that you want to tie me up and return me to the Holy Star Dynasty to request for a reward? "
"Not at all! "It's not like I'm someone from the Holy Star Dynasty." Xu Yourong hurriedly explained.
Chu Hen smiled, "I'm just teasing you. I'm just joking!"
Chu Hen was not afraid of exposing his identity. After all, with Holy Star Dynasty's strength, they would have found out sooner or later that they came to Wind Hidden Domain.
In any case, they did not dare to come here and chase them down, as this place had to be even closer to the borders of the Fog Wind Dynasty. The terms of the agreement between the dynastic countries could not be easily broken.
Seeing Chu Hen's casual look, Xu Yourong had a feeling that she couldn't explain.
In her impression, Chu Hen should be one of those people with a cold personality. She never expected that once they came into contact, it wouldn't be like what she imagined.
At the same time, Xu Dingfeng, the Second Elder, and the Third Elder who was covered in blood all kneeled before the patriarch, Xu Hao.
The victor was the king and the loser was the thief. Today, they had finally lost in a complete mess.
"Let go of me. If you dare touch me, my Pei Family will not let this go easily!" On the other side, the ashen-faced Pei Feiming was also pushing and shoving along with a few Xu Family disciples.
Xu Hao looked at him coldly and waved his hands.
Several Xu Family disciples let go of each other.
At this moment, Pei Feiming had also lost his previous demeanor. A few strands of hair were in disarray, and his clothes were a lot more wrinkled as he pushed and shoved.
He looked at Xu Dingfeng and the others before saying, "Leader Xu Hao, today, I am only here to help with the refining. I do not know anything about the internal conflict in your family."
At a time like this, Pei Feiming could just push it away as clean as he wanted.
Xu Hao laughed coldly as a hint of sarcasm appeared on his face, "Since that's the case, then please forgive us for not being able to entertain Young Master Pei properly today. Servants, send Young Master Pei out!"
"Yes, Patriarch!"
The two Xu Family disciples coldly gestured towards Pei Feiming, "Young Master Pei, please!"
Pei Feiming's face sank. This wasn't a 'please', it was clearly a different method to chase him away. Of course, Pei Feiming didn't dare to touch Xu Hao's bad luck at this time. It would be good enough if Xu Family didn't pursue the responsibility of 'colluding' with Xu Dingfeng.
Immediately, Pei Feiming waved his sleeve, turned around and left. As he left, he did not forget to fiercely glance at Chu Hen who was standing with Xu Yourong.
The atmosphere became even more silent!
Everyone's eyes were fixated on the three people kneeling in the middle.
Other than Xu Dingfeng, the other two were severely injured, especially the Third Elder, Xu Xing. He was barely alive and could faint at any moment.
"What else do the three of you have to say?" Xu Hao said coldly.
Xu Sheng's eyes showed his unwillingness and hatred. He said, "Hmph, there's nothing to say. Since ancient times, the victor has always been the loser. Since I've lost, if you want to kill me, then kill me. Don't speak rubbish in front of me."
"Very good!" Xu Hao replied blandly, then looked at Xu Dingfeng, "What about you?"
Xu Dingfeng's body could not help but tremble and his hands were trembling. However, he knew that it was impossible for Xu Hao to bypass him. He gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice, "Please give me a quick death!"
Chu Hen, who was not far away, could not help but shake his head. Previously, he had underestimated Xu Dingfeng, but now, it seemed that Xu Dingfeng had a bit of backbone.
The reason for the rebellion this time was most likely because he was bewitched by Xu Sheng and the others.
Of course, this was Xu Family's own matter, so what should he do next? They had nothing to do with Chu Hen.
Of course, Xu Yourong's gaze was somewhat unwilling. After all, she and Xu Dingfeng had grown up together. It was impossible for them to abandon each other so easily …
Xu Hao let out a deep breath as his throat started rolling. He said in a harsh tone, "Put the three of them in jail and put them under strict supervision. After discussing the crimes with the elders, we will discuss them."
"Yes, Patriarch!"
After he finished speaking, a few Xu Family disciples went forward to detain Xu Sheng and the other two. Then, Great Elder Xu Kai personally escorted them to the prison.
As for the other clan disciples who betrayed along with Xu Dingfeng and the others, they were also imprisoned one after another, awaiting punishment.
A storm of turbulence had finally died down at this moment. The process could be said to have been a surprise without any danger. However, the biggest contribution of all was all thanks to Chu Hen's help.
An hour later!
It was almost dusk but the Xu Family Great Hall had fallen into silence.
Including Patriarch Xu Hao, Great Elder Xu Kai, and the other higher ups of the various families were all secretly pondering in their hearts. Each and every one of them had a hesitant expression on their faces.
Chu Hen calmly sat on the guest chair beside Xu Yourong. A faint smile hung on his face.
The reason for this silence was none other than Chu Hen's reward. They wanted to give a vein to each other.
Xu Family only had a total of four mines, and taking one of them out would be equivalent to weakening one fourth of one's strength.
If this was in the past, the crowd might not be in such a difficult situation.
However, there had just been a huge change in the family. The loss of the second, third and Xu Dingfeng as well as the three powerful pillars of the Xu Family was not an optimistic situation.
Removing another vein only made the situation worse.
But then again, if it wasn't for Chu Hen, Xu Hao probably wouldn't be able to sit in the seat of the family head. On one side was the grim situation of the family, and on the other side was the favor that had to be returned. This was a bit difficult.
"Father?" Xu Yourong couldn't help but to call out when she saw Xu Hao not saying anything for a long time.
Previously, Xu Yourong and Chu Hen had a conversation, so comparatively speaking, she was on Chu Hen's side.
All the elders couldn't help but look up at Xu Hao.
Xu Hao let out a long sigh, his eyes revealing a determined look, "Fine! Although our Xu Family has encountered this difficulty, in the end, we still cannot do something like breaking one's promise. "Little Brother Chu Hen, I'm willing to give you a mine."
Chu Hen's eyebrows twitched and his eyes lit up.
But before Chu Hen could say anything, the other elder stood up and rejected him, "Patriarch, our Xu Family cannot weaken another power anymore!"
Then, the elder turned towards Chu Hen, clasped his hands, and said, "Brother Chu Hen, you've helped our family, we are very grateful to you. However, regarding the compensation, can we negotiate a bit more?"
"Yes, Patriarch, Fifth Elder is right."
"Little Brother Chu Hen, if you want the mines, can you wait for two to three years for our family to recover a bit before we give the mines to you?"
All the elders tried to persuade him.
"There's no need for that!" Xu Hao got up and stopped everyone, with a firm tone, he said, "I, Xu Hao, may be half crippled, but I haven't lost my backbone. If I don't even have the most basic character, how can I revive the family?"
After being scolded like this by Xu Hao, the higher ups and elders all felt ashamed.
"Little Brother Chu Hen!" Xu Hao looked at Chu Hen and said solemnly, "Tomorrow morning, I will hand over the ownership of a mine to you."
"Then, I'll have to thank Xu Family Master!"
Chu Hen stood up, clasping his hands together, and between his brows, a faint sense of admiration and praise emerged. Then, he smiled lightly and continued, "Xu Family Master, I have one more thing to say."
"Little brother, don't worry about it!" Xu Hao said.1
Chu Hen's eyelids twitched. He first looked at Xu Yourong beside him, then said loudly, "I feel like there's still hope for Xu Family Lord, for the Dao Tree in your Niwan Palace …"
