Translator: Sparrow Translations Editor: Sparrow Translations
Within the cave, the young boy howled, “I don’t believe that the Qu Clan would be capable of such monstrosity!”.
The man with the black mask did not respond.
There was a look of delight in his eyes.
Yes, the ancestor did lay down strict regulations.
Whoever beheads takes responsibility, but one shall never implicate family!
That was the rule of the Sects of the Bastion of Stars.
No one dared to break it.
Because all of them had their own families!
They had their own wives and children!
People whom they cared about.
If they went about committing atrocities everywhere, one day, karma would bite them in the ass.
Would the others let them go? Of course not!
What good would come from revenge then?
Only those who were cold blooded and had no feelings of family could do such things.
Everything that was happening was under the observation of the heavenly Dao because there was reincarnation.
Would this group of men dare to commit such offences?
They didn’t dare to.
If they did do so, once word got out, their Sect’s reputation would be destroyed forever.
Their faces would be scorn throughout the Bastion of Stars, this would be deadly for the clan.
This was why they didn’t dare to commit such heinous acts.
But it was alright to threaten the boy with such things.
What could the boy do against so many of them?
They didn’t believe that he could hold his calm.
His clan mates had already revealed that his soft spot was his family.
The two of them were equally as important as himself!
No, they were even more important than his own life!
How many times did he fight his own clan mates over this?
It was everything but short of killing someone.
It was precisely because he had this piece of information that the leader was certain of his tactics.
The young boy would cave in for sure!
Chu Yu recorded this scene down in his head using his sacred art.
The young man saw that there was no response and shouted another time, “This is the law of the entire Bastion of Stars! Don’t think you can fool me with this!”.
“Hehe, are you really that stupid? Or are you just pretending? If everyone in the world followed rules and laws, wouldn’t this world be perfect?” the man suddenly laughed.
“I don’t believe you guys would cross this line!” the boy yelled again.
“Forget it boss, don’t waste your breath. When the little rabbit’s clan mates described his mother and sister, I already had my thoughts. Why don’t I get the two of them over here now?”.
“Are you stupid? Capture them over? The little boy’s clan willingly handed them over to us, why would we need to capture them here?” another underling scoffed.
“Yea, this has nothing to do with ruining our clan’s image!”.
“Yes!”.
The group of them began discussing the situation.
They were a group of foxy individuals, how could the young boy outsmart them?
The boy’s expression was as dead as ash.
He knew that many of the things the men outside had said were real.
His clan not only betrayed him, they chased his mother and sister away as well!
“Perhaps my view before was too simple, too silly. If I die… they probably wouldn’t treat my mum and sister well either…”.
Tears welled up in his eyes as he tried to hold them in.
His clenched fist slowly loosened its grip.
He looked a decade older within seconds.
His voice suddenly became dead serious, “I have a request.”.
The man in the black mask gave a silent laughing gesture to his group outside.
All of them had faces of mockery and glee, but they made no sound.
The man asked coldly, “What is it?”.
“I don’t know what you guys will do to me once you capture me. I don’t think that its anything good, I know that very well. My life doesn’t matter. But… I have one request.”.
The young boy was like a trapped beast.
He trudged out and faced the group of men.
He gritted his teeth, “I’ve laid a powerful magical formation in the cave. Once you come in, half of this mountain would be gone. I’m willing to kill myself!”.
“What bullsh*t…” a man said as he kept quiet after receiving a deadly glare from the leader.
The others all had serious expressions.
They had all heard what the leader said about the magical formation.
“Go on,” the leader said.
“I want you guys to use your souls to swear that you won’t lie to me. I want you guys to take care of my mother and sister and help them settle down, and promise that you would never betray them, that you will never cause trouble for them! I want to see all of that. Once that is fulfilled, I will leave with you! Otherwise, I have over 90 magical formations here, you understand what that means right?”.
The young man said coldly, “I can end my own life! It’s just death!”.
“Do you agree to this?”.
He looked at the group with dead serious eyes.
Chu Yu nodded his head in the dark.
Magnificent!
Even at such a dire situation, he could think of method to trick the enemy.
What 90 magical formations?
How could he end his own life immediately?
The young man was betting on the fact that the enemy didn’t know much about magical formations.
The group of men all looked toward the man with the black mask.
He frowned and looked at the young man in the cave.
He couldn’t tell if he was telling the truth.
The magical formations were powerful, but they were not at the level of a great grandmaster!
So how would they be any match for the magical equipment that they had?
The young boy had no choice, he was at a dead end, all he could do was ensure his family’s safety.
He didn’t care about himself anymore!
He looked coldly at the group of men without saying anything.
The leader thought about it and said, “Alright, we’ll agree to it as long as you don’t pull any funny tricks.”.
The young man heaved a sigh of relief as he got ready to speak.
But just as he was about to do this, a voice echoed in the sky.
“A bunch of old men threatening a kid and forcing him to a dead an. You still have the guts to act like you’re being benevolent? Don’t you know shame?”.
“Who?”.
“Who’s that?”.
“Who are you?”.
“Show yourself!”.
The group from the Qu Clan were stunned as they raised their heads to look up in the sky.
For someone to have avoided the detection of their magical equipment, what kind of cultivation did he possess?
A dark hue crept over their hearts.
The boy was shocked, his eyes suddenly had hope.
The masked man suddenly spat at the young boy, “Get out now! We already agreed to your request!”.
The young man hesitated.
He didn’t know if the voice in the air was there to help him.
So, he stood there without moving as he looked at the masked man and said, “Someone has come to seek trouble with you… shouldn’t you settle that first?”.
“Settle your *ss! Who dares to interfere with the matters of the Qu Clan? Are you disobeying us now you little twat?” the masked man shouted.
Chu Yu’s body was in the cave, but his divine sense covered the entire range of mountains.
He laughed, “Little boy, don’t be afraid, what Qu Clan? We don’t need to be afraid of them! I’ll help you rescue your mother and sister.”.
“Friend, although I don’t know where you’re from or who you are, but are you really going to interfere with the matters of the Qu Clan? Anyone can talk, but few can walk the talk!” the masked man threatened.
He looked at the young man at the mouth of the cave, “And you, you little b*stard, I’m giving you this one chance!”.
The young man hesitated before finally shouting, “Elder, I’m sorry… Please don’t interfere with this matter, the Qu Clan’s power is formidable. I thank you for your thought!”.
He bowed down to nobody and said to the men outside, “I…”.
Just as he said this, a gust of demonic wind blew across the outside of the cave.
Boom!
The 20 of them were blown away like leaves.
They could not control their own bodies as the gust of wind sent them flying.
Incredulous looks appeared in their eyes.
Their hearts faded to grey.
They knew that they were done for, they had met a powerful being!
Great Saints definitely did not have such power to toy around with people of the same level of cultivation.
The opponent clearly did not intend to kill them either.
Otherwise, they would have been long dead.
“So kid, I didn’t bluff you am I right?” Chu Yu’s voice resounded in the cave.
A look of glee appeared on his face, but the boy calmed himself down and said, “Thank you elder, but why did you save me? Nothing good will come from offending the Qu Clan. Perhaps Elder doesn’t know about the Qu Clan?”.
Although he was crafty, the young boy had a good heart.
Chu Yu laughed, “I saved you because you caught my eye and struck me as a good kid. As to the Qu Clan, I don’t need to think of them.”.
The masked man stood up in the distance and said, “Elder, do you really seek to make the Qu Clan your enemy?”.
“F*ck! Don’t make me laugh, how are the few of you fit to represent a clan?” Chu Yu scoffed.
“Yes, we’re not fit to represent the entire clan, but we’re here on the ancestor’s orders! The ancestor represents the entire Qu Clan,” the masked man said.
In this realm, the Qu Clan was the almighty.
No one dared to offend them.
It was impossible that this stranger had never heard of the Qu Clan.
“So what then? Ask your ancestor to come and see me!” Chu Yu said as he grabbed the young man and left he place.
Before he left, he already sent an attack to strip the masked man of his cultivation.
A great Saint without cultivation was as good as a crippled human!
“Let me warn you guys. If you commit such atrocities again, your clan will be implicated!” Chu Yu warned as he left with the young man.
The group from the Qu Clan were stunned, they did not believe what had just happened.
Their leader had become a cripple within seconds.
He looked into the sky with tears in his eyes as he croaked, “Is this retribution? In my life… I’ve never respected the rules, I’ve committed heinous crimes…. This time, karma has finally struck… I’m a cripple now!”.
Looks of fear filled the eyes of the men.
They had initially thought that the leader’s cultivation had been sealed, they couldn’t see any pain in his expression.
But now, they realised that he was crippled!
All of his cultivation!
What kind of power was this? They hadn’t even seen the enemy!
It was terrifying!
Without a second word, they brought the boss back.
Chu Yu’s powers were great!
This man hadn’t even sensed a semblance of pain before his cultivation was taken away!
It was not that he didn’t want to physically punish the group of men, sometimes, these methods were more effective,
As for the Bastion of Stars, Chu Yu was a newcomer, he didn’t want to take sides before knowing how things worked here.
Even if this clan was an enemy of the village of Dao, he wanted to understand the situation better before making a move.
The young man was brought along by Chu Yu to a faraway place as they landed on the summit of another divine mountain.
The first thing the young man did was kneel in front of Chu Yu and said, “Thank you elder for saving my life! I am forever indebted to you, please help me save my mother and sister!”.
The plea was sincere.
Chu Yu liked this young man, he admired his spirit.
He was an intelligent boy.
Chu Yu smiled, “Show me the way.”.
