Chapter 317 Yang Family, Xiuchuan (Part 1)
Wu Chi walked very carefully and walked for three days before returning to the small cave.
From a distance, Wu Chi saw Jiang Rui's figure. Although they had only known each other for a short time, Wu Chi still felt a slight warmth in his heart when he saw Jiang Rui.
Naturally, Jiang Rui was not the only one who saw Wu Chi coming back.
However, unlike before, no matter who it was now, they would not dare to be disrespectful at all when seeing Wu Chi again, and would even bow slightly to salute.
A person who can kill a master like Yang Jie is enough to win the respect of everyone.
"Miss Su, we meet again."
His eyes fell on Wu Chi and Su Wan. Unexpectedly, Jiang Rui did not say hello to Wu Chi first, but looked at Su Wan and said.
"Young Master Jiang has a noble status, and little girls don't dare to climb high." Unlike Wu Chi, Su Wan was also wary of Jiang Rui. In this situation, she didn't trust anyone except Wu Chi.
Smiling slightly, Jiang Rui didn't take it seriously. He turned to Wu Chi and said, "I didn't expect that you actually killed Yang Jie, Qianjie Sword, Yang Qianjie! See, my previous defeat was not unjust."
Shaking his head, Wu Chi said seriously, "He underestimated the enemy, and it involves a lot of luck. In terms of strength, I am far inferior to him."
Facing Jiang Rui, Wu Chi did not hide anything. He raised the corners of his mouth slightly and continued with a smile, "I know that even Yang Jie is not really a top expert among the third level of the prison world. So, I After thinking about it, it’s better to come and seek refuge with you.”
Taking refuge naturally means becoming a guest of the Jiang family.
At the second level of the prison world, Yang Minhong forced Wu Chi to choose between the Yang family and the Jiang family. However, Wu Chi used his own power to stir up the world and abruptly rejected this choice.
After entering the third level of the prison world, Wu Chi originally did not intend to get involved, but now, in order to save Su Wan, he finally made a choice.
"Frankly speaking, if you said this before, I would be very happy." Looking at Wu Chi, Jiang Rui said softly, "But now, I'm afraid there is some trouble."
Hearing this, Wu Chi's heart sank slightly.
Using the Jiang family to fight against the Yang family's threat is the best way now, but if the Jiang family is unwilling to intervene, his situation will become extremely dangerous, and it can even be said that there is almost no chance of survival.
"Yang Jie has a different identity. His death will definitely alarm Yang Xiuchuan! I'm not sure whether Yang Xiuchuan will come forward." After a pause, Jiang Rui continued, "The family believes that offending Yang Xiuchuan for you is not worth it."
Realizing what Jiang Rui meant about family, Wu Chi shrugged, "So what do you think?"
With a smile on his face, Jiang Rui said softly, "Whether it's worth it, for them, is a consideration of interests! But for me, it just depends on my heart. If I think it's worth it, it's worth it."
"Thanks!"
After a moment of silence, Wu Chi thanked him softly.
Jiang Rui's words are worthwhile, not just for words, but forcibly making a decision under pressure from the family. Such a decision deserves Wu Chi's serious thanks.
"Don't thank me in a hurry." Shaking his head, Jiang Rui continued, "Although I have some status in the family, after all, my strength is limited now and I cannot affect the decision of the entire family. Therefore, it can only be based on my personal In the name of helping you...do you understand what I mean?"
This sentence made Wu Chi frown slightly, and after thinking for a long time, he finally understood what Jiang Rui meant.
"So, I am not a guest of the Jiang family, but just your friend?"
"I have never had a friend, and you are the first." Looking at Wu Chi, Jiang Rui said equally seriously.
.......
"Master Xiuchuan, it's my incompetence! Not only did I fail to find out clearly about the relationship between Su Wan and Wu Chi, but I also seriously underestimated Wu Chi's strength, which led to Master Jie's death! I am willing to accept all punishment."
Kneeling on the ground, Mr. Wu said in a deep voice.
In front of him, Yang Xiuchuan was wearing a black coat and holding a tea cup in his hand. He stood quietly with no sadness or joy on his face and no expression at all.
After being silent for half a stick of incense, Yang Xiuchuan finally said, "Uncle Wu, you have been following me since I was ten years old! In more than three hundred years of getting along, I have never regarded you as an outsider... But , Yang Jie is my cousin after all, and someone needs to bear the consequences of his death."
There was a chill in his heart, and Mr. Wu was slightly chilly.
Over the years, he had never made mistakes in his work, but this was the first time Yang Xiuchuan spoke to him in such a tone, which made him uneasy and inexplicably afraid.
"Go back, our fate is over!"
The fingers loosened slightly, and the tea cup in his hand suddenly fell to the ground, making a crisp sound and shattering into pieces.
At this moment, Mr. Wu's heart suddenly sank to the bottom, as if what was broken in that moment was not just a tea cup, but also his heart.
After more than three hundred years of following him, he could not change the fact that he was just a servant of the Yang family.
For Yang Jie's death, Yang Xiuchuan needed to give an explanation to his family. It was not just as simple as killing Wu Chi, his enemy, but he also became a victim.
Once he lost the protection of Yang Xiuchuan, all the aura on his body would fade away, and he would become just a servant of the Yang family.
Originally he was almost half a master, but this sentence suddenly brought him back to his original form.
This huge gap made him feel despair instantly.
He was pleading, but after so many years of getting along with him, he knew Yang Xiuchuan's temperament better than anyone else. Once he made a decision, no one could make him change his mind.
But when he raised his head again, Yang Xiuchuan had already disappeared.
……. .
"Amitabha, what does Master Yang mean?"
Looking at the wick in front of him, the monk in golden cassock asked in surprise.
"The wick in front of the Buddha has been baptized by thousands of years of wishes. It is a small gift from me to the master! How about putting this battle aside for now?" Looking at the other party calmly, Yang Xiuchuan said calmly.
With a slight thought in his mind, the monk clasped his hands together and said softly, "Master Yang, please excuse me."
In the past few months, he had fought against Yang Xiuchuan more than ten times, and each time they were neck-and-neck. In fact, to be honest, he still lost slightly.
Under such circumstances, Yang Xiuchuan had no reason to admit defeat! But now, Yang Xiuchuan would rather give away treasures such as lamp wicks in front of the Buddha, but he has given up temporarily, and his intention is worth pondering.
He didn't want to completely anger Yang Xiuchuan and risk his life or death, so since Yang Xiuchuan had already made concessions, he had no reason not to agree.
However, the third level of the prison world is so big, and it is not difficult to know what Yang Xiuchuan wants to do.
........
"The quality of this small cave is very high. It should be able to support two people practicing at the same time. Of course, the effect will be less! However, if the loss of spiritual marrow is not taken into account, it is not a big problem."
Entering the small cave, Jiang Rui took out a lot of things, including hundreds of poisonous insects.
"Miss Su, this is the poisonous insect you want! Time is too short, we can only get so many for the time being."
"Thank you very much."
After accepting these poisonous insects, Su Wan felt happy and thanked them.
With the addition of these poisonous insects, she will have room to display many of her methods, which can be said to greatly increase her strength.
Shaking his head, Jiang Rui looked at Su Wan and said, "Miss Su, you are too dependent on these poisonous insects now. This kind of practice has gone astray! If you want to go further, you must find a way to get rid of your dependence on these poisonous insects. .”
Although Su Wan's method of poisoning was very clever, in fact, in Jiang Rui's eyes, it was not a concern at all.
As her strength improves, unless Su Wan can make a breakthrough, her threat will only become smaller and smaller.
After being slightly startled, Amelia Su nodded, "Thanks for reminding me, I will find a way."
Jiang Rui just mentioned it casually and didn't care about Su Wan's matter. He turned to Wu Chi and said, "The recent actions of the Yang family are very strange! I have always made people pay attention to the movements of the masters of the Yang family, but the strange thing is that these people don't do anything at all. No movement at all.”
Speaking of this, Jiang Rui couldn't help but show a trace of worry on his face.
No change is the biggest change!
There can be no news about Yang Jie's death, so the only explanation is... they have received news from a higher level, and someone will solve this matter!
And in the third level of the prison world, there is only one person higher than them... Yang Xiuchuan!
Wu Chi raised his eyebrows and said in a deep voice, "You mean... Yang Xiuchuan will take action?"
When the name Yang Xiuchuan was mentioned, Jiang Rui became silent for a while.
After a long time, he finally said, "Although some people have always said that I am as famous as Yang Xiuchuan, in fact, I know very well! I am far inferior to him. At least, I may not be able to compare with him within a hundred years."
Jiang Rui is very proud. It is not easy for a person who is so proud to say such things.
This also made Wu Chi clearly realize the power of Yang Xiuchuan again.
"If you hadn't been born in the golden world, you would never understand what the name Yang Family Xiuchuan means..." After sighing, Jiang Rui said in a deep voice, "I will try my best, but if he really comes forward... I You may not be able to stop him.”
There are gains and there are losses!
Now Jiang Rui protects Wu Chi in his own name, which eliminates the need for Wu Chi to make a harsh oath of fate, and is not bound by the Jiang family's guest status.
But again, it cannot represent the entire Jiang family, which means that in the face of Yang Xiuchuan's strength, the power Jiang Rui can use is also very limited, and may not be able to threaten Yang Xiuchuan.
Jiang Rui exited the small cave mansion without much explanation from him.
But Wu Chi and Su Wan couldn't help but feel a sense of crisis again. However, neither Wu Chi nor Su Wan could do anything about it.
You can borrow external forces, but in the end the only thing you can rely on is your own strength!
From the moment Wu Chi decided to save Su Wan, this was the price he had to bear.
There is no value or not, only willingness or not.
