Chapter 317

subordinate

"What's going on? How come your Chu family is fighting with the Shen family?" At this time, Bao Rui also noticed something and hurried over to ask.

"Oh, it turns out it's Xiaoyou Bao. There have been some grudges between our Chu family and the Shen family. Now it's time to settle the matter." Elder Chu said. As the previous clan leader, he had to stay when the current clan leader went to war.

In order to control the overall situation in the clan, he did not go to the battlefield in person.

"Grudge?! I know that there is a very big grudge between your two families and they have been entangled with each other for a long time. But now that you have mastered the lifeblood of the Shen family, it won't take long to completely defeat the Shen family. By then,

Not only is the Shen family weak in power, but it will also become a thorn in the eyes of many people. If you start to attack at that time, you can act in accordance with the righteousness without having too much impact on your own power, so why not do it?!"

Bao Rui said.

"We appreciate your kindness, little friend." Mr. Chu nodded, "It's just that the Shen family has touched the very foundation of our Chu family this time. We can't bear it any longer. If we swallow our anger today, we will do it again tomorrow."

If other families and forces try to attack our roots again and again, no family can afford it. Even with the help of our little friends, we can ensure the continuation of our family, but now, we must

Take action yourself and ensure that no one thinks that our Chu family is a soft persimmon who can be manipulated by others."

"What you are doing will only harm your Chu family. Although I don't know the cause of the matter yet, I suggest you think twice before you act." Bao Rui continued to persuade.

"My little friend, you don't have to worry about it. Besides, it's too late to say so now. The large army of the Chu family has already attacked the Shen family. Judging by the time, they should have already fought each other. It's too late to say anything now.

Already." Old Chu shook his head and said.

"Since my persuasion has no effect, I don't have to waste my words." Bao Rui said, "After all, you have cooperated with me for so long. If you have any problems, just try to find me."

"I have something I want to give to you in exchange for your help." When Bao Rui was about to leave, Mr. Chu suddenly took out an exquisite box and said.

"How do you say this?" Bao Rui couldn't help but stop and asked.

"Some of our tribesmen who went out came back and reported some things. They mentioned that some originally weak forces in several surrounding cities suddenly became strong, and then defeated some old forces and even took control of the city lord's palace." Chu Laodun

Liao paused and continued, "It is exactly the same as what is happening in Yunqu City now."

"Do you think your Chu family, like those forces, was chosen as a pawn to challenge the established forces?" Bao Rui directly hit the key to the problem.

"The foundation of our Chu family is enough for us to defeat the Shen family at the minimum cost." Mr. Chu directly avoided Bao Rui's topic and said, "But in this case, the mastermind behind it will definitely attack our Chu family."

"So, you already know who the mastermind behind this is." Bao Rui asked quickly.

"Our Chu family once had a glorious history, so our ancestors also left behind a lot of things, including such a wonderful item." Mr. Chu still avoided Bao Rui's topic and continued, as if

It was said to Bao Rui, but also to others, or to other people, "This thing is called Thunder Strike Wood. It is a treasure passed down from our ancestors. Although the power it contains is not amazing, it can only be relied on."

It is considered a third-level low-grade, but the mixture of thunder and wood attributes in it can help cultivators who specialize in thunder attributes to neutralize the violence of thunder attribute spells, making it easier to control, which can have an even more powerful effect.

"With that said, Mr. Chu opened the box, revealing a plain piece of charred black wood, but there were a few arcs flashing on the wood, adding a bit of mystery to it.

"You should have a good idea of ​​the masterminds behind the scenes. If you don't tell us who they are and what their strength is, I won't dare to take the matter." Bao Rui said with a frown, obviously not interested in Mr. Chu.

This request was very cautious. After all, her master's strength may not be able to defeat everyone.

However, Mr. Chu didn't seem to pay attention to Bao Rui's intention, but kept waiting. He didn't say much and didn't answer Bao Rui's intention.

"The lightning strike wood is a good thing, but it is not enough." At this moment, Zhou Wutian's figure suddenly appeared beside the two of them, and reached out to take the lightning strike wood from the box.

"Master?

!Why are you here?" Bao Rui couldn't help but said in surprise, and immediately understood why Mr. Chu's behavior seemed a little abnormal.

"What else do you need? As long as it's what our Chu family has." Mr. Chu immediately stood up and said respectfully.

"How did you know I would definitely come?" Zhou Yutian asked, changing the topic while looking at the thunder tree.

"Such a big thing happened in Yunqu City. As a participant, you will definitely pay attention to it, so I bet you must be monitoring this place somewhere around." Mr. Chu said quickly.

"It's impossible to calculate the poverty and lowliness of all living beings. Looking back, we can't help but feel the mixed feelings." Zhou Wutian put away the lightning and struck the wood, but suddenly smiled and recited a poem.

Mr. Chu couldn't help but change his face, and then immediately returned to normal, and said without any change in his tone, "You all know it, and I didn't hide it on purpose." He smiled and rubbed his two rough hands, as if

Just like an ordinary rural old man.

"What do you mean?" Bao Rui on the side is still a little confused. Although she has a good talent for business, she has too little experience outside. She still doesn't know many things, and many things still need time to accumulate.

.

"I want you to come with me. This is my condition. In exchange, I can help your Chu family to a high position in Yunqu City." Zhou Yutian said.

"I am already old and have lived for many years. Even if I stay by your side, I'm afraid I won't be able to serve you for long. Instead, I will become a burden to you," Mr. Chu said.

"Whether it's lifespan or cultivation level, it's not a problem for me. What I lack is talented and capable talents, not cultivators with high cultivation talents." Zhou Yutian said, "These are yours.

It should be able to be calculated.”

"I can't figure out your past or your future." Mr. Chu said, "I can't figure it out and I don't dare to figure it out."

"Bao Rui, please stay here while I take a step to talk to Mr. Chu." Zhou Yutian said and walked out, and Mr. Chu followed.

"You can't figure out my affairs, but you should know about hers." The two of them walked out, and then Zhou Yutian began to talk about Bao Rui's affairs.

"The second young lady of the Bao family." Mr. Chu nodded, "I had some contact with the Bao family when I was in the Yunze sect. Later, although I was no longer in the Yunze sect, some intelligence networks were not disconnected, otherwise we would not be able to be in the Yunze sect.

The Yunze sect has persisted until now." Mr. Chu said, "However, I heard that the second lady's talent is not very good and she is not suitable for the environment of the Huowu Sect. She cannot achieve very good results in cultivation, so she is not good at business.

I have high hopes for you."

"So what do you think of her current talent?" Zhou Kutian said.

"It's very shocking. My future achievements will not be lower than my peak years." Mr. Chu said.

"How long do you have left to live?" Zhou Yutian suddenly asked, changing the subject.

"Um." Mr. Chu was also shocked by such a sudden change, and he hesitated for a while before reacting, "I have spent one hundred and thirty spring and autumn years in the middle period of Yuheng, and after being seriously injured and declining, I have passed

For ten years, things have been getting worse and worse, and now we are running out of time, two months at most."

"Good guy, if you calculate this, the lifespan of an ordinary Yuheng cultivator is much longer than that of an ordinary Yuheng cultivator." Zhou Yutian said, "The average Yuheng mid-term cultivator can have a lifespan of one hundred and fifty years.

That’s good, you’ve been able to survive for so long despite being seriously injured, that’s impressive.”

"Those of us who spend our whole day calculating things will naturally lose some life span, so there are some life-extending methods to make up for these losses." Mr. Chu said, "If we are not injured, we can probably live to this day.

Two hundred years old, if you are lucky enough to reach the late Yuheng period, three hundred years old will not be a problem."

"You?" Zhou Yutian seemed to have discovered the crux of the problem.

"Well, besides me, I have a few senior brothers who escaped back then and have no contact with them now." Mr. Chu seemed to be aware of Zhou Yutian's intention and said quickly.

"Alas, things are unpredictable. I wish you brothers and sisters can meet each other soon." Zhou Yutian said with a slight sigh, and then changed the subject, "This time, your Chu family suddenly launched an attack. Have you thought about how it will end?"

"Before this, I have prepared some escape routes for the Chu family. Before my deadline is approaching, it would be worthy of the people to completely withdraw the Chu family from Yunqu City." Mr. Chu said, "However, since your Excellency,

After bringing these two people to Yunqu City, when I took a look at the secrets, I discovered some changes. I finally seized the opportunity that day, welcomed little friend Bao Rui back, and let the Chu family join your Excellency.

It’s planned.”

"So, you have already planned to vote

What's the plan?" Zhou Yutian said, "Aren't you afraid that I will do something bad to you?"

"Your Excellency has great plans and will need the Chu family in a short period of time, so he will not attack the Chu family. And by doing this, I can be regarded as doing justice to the Chu family. After all, there is no such thing as me in the Chu family now."

Where is the bloodline." Mr. Chu said.

"Oh?? There's a story——" Zhou Wutian became interested when he heard it.

"It's not really a story." When Mr. Chu saw Zhou Yutian's interest, he couldn't help but smile bitterly and continued, "I am not from the Chu family, nor am I named Chu. It was the previous generation of family masters who picked me up and then claimed

It was his illegitimate son who raised me up. Later, the great elders of the clan tried to seize power and murdered the family head. However, I luckily broke through Yuheng, regained the position of the family head, and quickly killed the great elders. Now,

All members of the Chu family are concubines and have no blood connection with me, so I have done my best to be benevolent and righteous, and it doesn’t matter at this point."

"Since the Chu family is planning to take refuge with me, then you, Mr. Chu, must also join me." Zhou Yutian said, "After all, it doesn't make sense to have more or less families like the Chu family under me, but if it doesn't count

Try your best to join me, this is the greatest help."

"Chu Ling is not talented, so he is willing to serve this little friend. However, there is not much time left, so he can only do his best." Mr. Chu said.

"Humph, you don't need to test me. If you sincerely surrender, I will naturally not treat you badly. Whether it is lifespan or cultivation level is not a problem." Zhou Yutian said, "Your temptation will only make people feel uncomfortable, and even feel that they are already dead.

You've been tricked into this."

"My little friend's strength is astonishing. The method of asking the sky must not be inferior to mine. You are not afraid of my calculations at all. I think what little friend lacks is just experience and experience in these places. In my early years, I traveled to the Eastern Region and Central China.

Some of the insights gained from the field can definitely help the children." Mr. Chu said.

"Okay, what's going on with the Shen family now? Are there any changes in the future?" Zhou Yutian waved his hand and asked.

"Today's Shen family is probably under the instruction of someone sent by Yunze to test my current strength. When the Shen family can no longer hold on, it is estimated that a master from the Yuheng period will come forward. Then I will have to come forward.

And that person's goal will be achieved." Mr. Chu said.

"You are quite calculating. Do you know that we are going to cause trouble to the Yunze faction?" Zhou Yutian asked.

"Yes, but the Yunze Sect is very evil. If you go this time, you must make more plans." Chu Ling frowned and said, "I suspect that the Yunze Sect is controlled by someone."

"Oh?" Zhou Yutian continued to ask after hearing this.

"I discovered the thing vaguely after we escaped from the Yunze Sect." Chu Ling said, "And I suspect that my master's failure to break through has a lot to do with the people behind them, even the newly promoted Yunze

It was also because of their help that the elders of the sect broke through to the level of Tianquan. Otherwise, it would have been impossible for that person to break through to Tianquan in such a short period of time with his qualifications."
