Lu Fengxian left Chen Tong and his son to him, which surprised Chu Xiu. He thought Lu Fengxian would let these two people go.
But then Chu Xiu felt relieved when he thought about it. The Lu Fengxian now was not the Lu Fengxian in the original plot. This was a real world. Compared with the unchanging game, people's hearts will change.
Things that Lu Fengxian in the original plot would experience may not be experienced by Lu Fengxian in the current world, and with Chu Xiu's intervention, Lu Fengxian might also experience some other things.
This sudden thought made Chu Xiu a little anxious. Chu Xiu had always ignored one thing, and that was the butterfly effect.
Since his rebirth, this world has actually deviated from the plot. Although the Chu family incident happened, a person like Shen Mo who did not deserve to die died.
These are all small things, so they will not cause changes to the general plot for the time being, but when Chu Xiu becomes stronger and stronger, or when he comes into contact with more and more people, what will this world look like in the end?
Chu Xiu himself didn’t even know.
To put it simply, Chu Xiu's only advantage compared to others may gradually disappear.
Chu Xiu shook his head, with a cold look in his eyes. Regardless of the butterfly effect or the plot change, in this world, strength is the foundation of everything. As long as Chu Xiu keeps moving towards this goal, he will reach this world.
At the peak of his career, he could sit back and relax without fear of anything.
He had tolerated it for long enough in his previous life, so naturally he had to act bravely and radically in this life, and at the same time, his calculations were as smooth as walking on thin ice, so that he could reach the true peak all the way.
Putting these thoughts aside for the time being, Chu Xiu looked at Chen Yuanzhi and his son, searched their bodies, and found no purple-leaf dogwood. He said lightly: "Is it useful to stage a drama about the deep love between father and son here at this time?
Hand over the purple-leaf dogwood."
After seeing Lu Fengxian hand them over, Chen Yuanzhi and his son were already in despair.
They had already noticed who Chu Xiu was after just two days of contact with him. If he fell into his hands, they would be in danger.
Chen Tong said with a hopeful look: "If I hand over the purple-leafed dogwood, can you let us go?"
Chu Xiu shook his head: "It seems that you still don't understand what I mean. I asked you to hand over the purple-leaf dogwood. Is this sentence so difficult to understand?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Chu Xiu stabbed Chen Tong directly into Chen Tong's chest, twisted the handle of the knife, and found that Chen Tong had lost his breath.
Seeing his son being killed right in front of his eyes, Chen Yuanzhi was stunned for an instant. Chu Xiu pulled out his knife and said to him calmly: "The same goes for you. If you give me a chance, hand over the purple-leaf dogwood."
Chen Yuanzhi's eyes were red, and he yelled crazily at Chu Xiu: "Dream! I hid the purple-leaf dogwood, and you can't find it even if you search the Chen family! You killed my son, this time I
I also want all your hard work to come to nothing!"
Chu Xiu shook his head helplessly and said, "Another one who doesn't understand people."
This time, Chu Xiu didn't kill Chen Yuanzhi, nor did he waste all his efforts to really turn the Chen family upside down. He was still seriously injured, so the most important thing was to get his things out early so he could find a place to recuperate.
Chu Xiu went directly to the inner house in the backyard of the Chen family and intimidated some collateral disciples of the Chen family and direct relatives of Chen Yuan to come out.
The strength of the Chen family is not strong to begin with. Except for Chen Yuanzhi, who is innate, and Chen Tong, who is coagulated, the rest are in the body tempering realm. Therefore, during the fight, Chen Yuanzhi did not let them come out to die at all, but kept them all in the inner house.
, no matter what sound he heard, he was not allowed to come out, but now he was beaten by Chu Xiu.
Seeing Chu Xiu press those dozens of people out, Chen Yuanzhi gritted his teeth and said: "Chu Xiu! It won't harm your family, you don't follow the rules of the world!"
"The rules of the world? Who sets the rules?"
Chu Xiu said calmly: "Chen Yuanzhi, you think you have been involved in the world of martial arts all your life, but in fact you don't even know what the martial arts world is.
Only those who hold a knife in their hand are qualified to make rules. Now that I have a knife in my hand, what I say is the rule!"
Chu Xiu did not press Chen Yuanzhi any further. He turned his attention directly to a warrior in his thirties who was in the Chen family and asked, "What is your status in the Chen family?"
The warrior trembled and said: "Steward."
"A manager in his thirties? Are you a collateral bloodline of the Chen family?"
The warrior nodded reluctantly.
"Do you know where the purple-leafed dogwood is?"
The steward of the Chen family hesitated for a moment and shook his head.
But before he could react, Chu Xiu slashed out with his sword, and the corpses were separated in an instant, causing everyone in the Chen family to let out a scream.
Lu Fengxian, who was standing at the door of the hall, frowned. He somewhat disapproved of Chu Xiu's indiscriminate killing of innocent people, but thinking of what Chen Yuanzhi and his son had done, he didn't say much.
Chu Xiu turned his gaze to the second person expressionlessly: "Do you know where the purple-leafed dogwood is?"
The second warrior was in his forties and was also a branch of the Chen family. When he saw Chu Xiu's eyes turning around, he collapsed and shouted: "Don't kill me! I know! The Purple Leaf Dogwood is in the secret room of the owner's house.
But the keys to the secret room are in the hands of the master and the young master respectively. Only when the two keys are combined into one can the secret room be opened!"
Chu Xiu curled his lips and said: "Take the key and open the secret room. Bring me the purple-leaf dogwood and the Chen family's elixirs. Don't even think about escaping unless you are confident that you can be faster than me."
The collateral clan member of the Chen family shivered and found a copper cloud pattern that looked like an ornament from Chen Tong's body. Then, with Chen Yuanzhi's murderous gaze, he found a very similar one from Chen Tong's body.
If you don't look carefully at the moiré pattern, you really can't tell that it is the key.
Holding the key, the Chen family member brought the purple-leaf dogwood and a large bag of bottles and cans to Chu Xiu as quickly as possible, and said tremblingly: "Sir, all the treasures of the Chen family are here.
.”
Chu Xiu patted his shoulder and said with approval: "Yes, from now on, you are the head of the Chen family."
The side clan member was stunned and said: "But the head of the family..."
Before he finished speaking, Chu Xiu stabbed Chen Yuanzhi directly with a knife, pulled out the crimson blade, shook the blood on the knife and said: "It's okay now, you are the new head of the family."
After taking these things back into the space secret box, Chu Xiu left directly with Lu Fengxian.
Except for Chen Yuanzhi and his son, there are no other direct members of the Chen family. If they are killed, the direct lineage will be completely wiped out.
And before leaving, Chu Xiu randomly appointed a collateral clan as the head of the family. He just said it casually, but power is something that can make people get lost. Without the direct clan, what will happen to the clan members of the collateral clan?
That's not something Chu Xiu would consider.
Now that Chu Xiu was seriously injured, he was not in a hurry to return to Luyang Town, but was planning to find a remote barren mountain to recuperate.
On the way, Lu Fengxian suddenly said: "Brother Chu, you helped me this time. I will leave all the purple-leaf dogwood to you. I won't take my share."
Chu Xiu raised his eyebrows and said: "Not to mention helping you, my goal from the beginning was actually that Purple Leaf Dogwood. And if you hadn't stopped the three men from the Black Tiger Gang this time, I wouldn't have been able to kill Xu Chongyang."
Lu Fengxian shook her head persistently and said: "The meaning is different. For me, you are helping me."
Seeing Lu Fengxian's persistence, Chu Xiu didn't show any pretense, because Lu Fengxian's character was like this. If you help him one point, he will return ten points to you.
Therefore, in the original plot, Nie Dongliu was actually mostly pretending to win over Lu Fengxian, but even so, Lu Fengxian was willing to help Nie Dongliu in the end and took the blame for him.
"By the way, Brother Chu, I have one more thing to say, although you may not like to hear it."
Lu Fengxian looked at Chu Xiu and said, "Brother Chu, your personality is a bit extreme, and it is easy to cause excessive killing, just like you killed that Chen family branch today.
Although you can't avoid killing people when traveling in the world, you can't be dominated by the will to kill. My master once said that when he was in the Northern Yan Army, he fought with the Eastern Qi Dynasty. He killed countless people in the battle, and even his eyes were red from the killing.
He almost killed his own people.
This situation is a shock to the state of mind and can easily delay future cultivation."
Lu Fengxian didn't blame Chu Xiu for killing innocent people indiscriminately, he was just worried that if he continued to kill like Chu Xiu, he would easily fall into the devil's path.
Chu Xiu smiled and said: "Brother Lu, if I said that I actually don't like killing people, would you believe it?"
Lu Fengxian didn't say anything, but looked at Chu Xiu with an expression that said, "Do you think I will believe it?"
Chu Xiu shook his head and said: "I am telling the truth. For me, killing is just a means to achieve my goal. If there is a more convenient and faster way, I don't want to kill anyone.
But most of the time, killing is the best way to solve the problem. Just like what happened just now, there is great terror between life and death. Although there are many people in this world who are not afraid of death, they are definitely not many.
As you can see, killing only one person saves me a lot of effort and time, which is very cost-effective.
And you don’t have to worry about me being frightened by the murderous aura. Among the exercises I am currently practicing, there is a magic method that can condense the murderous intent and evil aura between heaven and earth to hurt the enemy. Its close-range power is not inferior to Gangqi.
No matter what kind of power it is, to me it is just a means, a tool. People will not be driven or affected by tools."
Lu Fengxian nodded, as long as Chu Xiu knew this, and some of Chu Xiu's theories sounded very novel to him, which made him feel a little emotional and inspired.
