Chu Chen sneered.
"Become a ghost? Heh... you don't even deserve it!"
"You'll never be a ghost in this life!"
"Because, after I kill you, you will be my most loyal servant.
At that time, I will send your corpse to the Chu family head..."
Chu Feng's eyes flashed with ferocity.
Rumble!
Thunderclouds churned in the void, lightning snakes writhing.
Streaks of lightning struck the courtyard, shattering it into pieces.
"Damn it!"
"This is a sacred place of the Chu family, not to be desecrated!
You little beast, you are so audacious to commit murder here, you deserve to have your nine generations exterminated!"
Chu Haonan was furious.
But soon.
His voice abruptly stopped.
"Huh?"
"He actually withstood these lightning strikes?"
Chu Feng's eyes widened in surprise.
He had used a secret technique to activate his Sword Soul Body, unleashing strength comparable to a peak sixth-tier Martial Master!
Furthermore, wielding a sharp sword, he had unleashed martial skills and various profound sword techniques.
Such powerful swordsmanship had still failed to kill Chu Haonan?
"What kind of sword technique is this?"
"It can actually devour my sword energy and strengthen itself?"
Chu Feng frowned and pondered.
However, he quickly reacted and roared, "I don't care what sword art you use, I will kill you today!"
Whoosh!
A brilliant sword light streaked across the sky.
Chu Feng pointed a finger at Chu Haonan's chest.
Pfft!
Chu Haonan was sent flying backward.
Chu Chen followed closely, flicked his wrist, and plunged the blood-soaked wooden sword into his forehead, killing him instantly!
Chu Haonan's body stiffened.
He died with his eyes wide open, staring at Chu Chen, as if cursing him venomously.
"Hmph."
Chu Chen snorted lightly.
The next moment, Chu Haonan's corpse fell to the ground, twitched a few times, and then lay silent.
"What sword technique is this?"
Chu Chen looked at the wooden sword, his eyes filled with confusion.
Although he knew many sword techniques.
He had never seen a wooden sword as peculiar as this one!
Swish!
A green light flashed.
Chu Chen held the wooden sword and examined it carefully. After a moment, he exclaimed in surprise, "This is... a Wood Element Sword Art!"
"No!"
"This is definitely not a Wood Element Sword Art, but a more advanced sword art!"
Chu Chen's expression was one of joy.
He understood the value of this wooden sword!
It turned out that his father in this life was a sword genius!
Not only was his martial pulse of extremely high grade.
His sword talent was also terrifyingly potent.
Once he became a Sword Warrior, he could comprehend the 'Wood Sword Seal'.
The function of this 'Wood Sword Seal' was to amplify the power of sword martial arts, doubling their might.
"Hahaha..."
"My father is indeed extraordinary, the Wood Sword Seal he left me is even stronger than I imagined!"
Chu Chen's face was excited, his pupils flashing with fervor, and he couldn't help but burst into wild laughter.
Rumble!
The celestial phenomena outside had still not subsided.
This area had already been sealed off by the high-ranking members of the Chu family!
"Where is my mother? Where is she?"
Chu Chen looked up at the dark, ominous clouds.
He could sense that this celestial disaster was aimed at him!
"Young Master, the Madam was already arranged to go to the Imperial Capital."
At this moment, a maidservant walked over and said respectfully.
Chu Chen nodded, asking no further questions. The Imperial Capital was far from here.
With his mother's strength, she could traverse the void and reach there, couldn't she?
"In the Chu family, the only one I care about is this lowly girl..."
"However, since she was sent to the Imperial Capital by the elders of the Chu family."
"Then the Chu family will definitely not treat her poorly, and she will surely be safe!"
"I won't worry about these matters for now."
Chu Chen collected his thoughts.
Then, he strode out of the Chu family mansion.
"Hmm?"
Chu Feng's steps halted, and he turned to glance at the mansion.
"Why is there a familiar scent?"
Chu Feng frowned.
He vaguely smelled the scent of blood.
Had this branch of the Chu royal family experienced a massacre?
However.
Chu Chen only paid a little attention.
He knew very well that the waters of the Chu family were deeper than Chu Haonan imagined.
After all, his father was a core disciple of the direct lineage of the Chu family.
And he possessed an eighth-tier martial pulse talent, holding significant influence and power within the Chu family!
"Chu Chen, what do you think you're doing?"
"If you dare to kill me, the Chu family will never let this go..."
Chu Haonan's corpse turned into bones.
He was dead.
His soul dissipated.
Chu Feng waved his hand.
A ball of golden primal energy descended.
Instantly, the remains began to fuse rapidly.
"This Chu Haonan was quite wealthy."
Chu Chen's eyes gleamed.
The storage ring of this Chu family head was filled with spirit stones, precious medicines, spiritual artifacts, and other resources.
They were all piled together, worth nearly a hundred spirit stones.
"What a pity."
"The cultivation technique I'm currently practicing is the 'Chaos Demonic Body', which requires a massive amount of energy to cultivate to its peak."
"Without so many spirit stones, even with spirit stones to aid my cultivation, it would be difficult to reach the highest realm..."
Thinking of this, Chu Feng couldn't help but sigh.
He reached out and took out two spiritual artifacts.
One was a long saber with dragon and tiger patterns engraved on its blade, named 'Dragon Slayer'.
The other was a jade pendant.
"Chu Haonan, take these two items to mourn your son, as a gift of apology."
Chu Feng said indifferently.
These two spiritual artifacts were carefully chosen by him, and their quality was excellent!
Especially the Dragon Slayer, which was a genuine first-grade spiritual artifact!
In the Chu family.
This saber could allow him to establish a foothold within the Chu family.
The other jade pendant was the Chu family's inheritance jade token.
It was said that every ten years, the Chu family ancestral shrine would open, revealing the Chu family's inheritance land for trials!
This inheritance jade token could replace the Chu family head's token, command the masses, and lead the Chu family elders!
However, since ancient times, only martial artists of the Innate Martial Sovereign realm or above could possess this item.
"Now, I am also a young master of the Chu family."
"Once I reach the Martial Venerable realm, with the inheritance jade token.
And with this Dragon Slayer saber and the inheritance jade token, I will surely be able to roam the world and dominate all directions!"
Chu Chen's eyes lit up with brilliant light.
He desperately yearned to become stronger.
Only by becoming a peerless powerhouse would he have the right to change everything.
The direct descendants of the Chu family were not valued.
That's why, back then, he had fled with all his might, wanting to leave the Chu family!
But it was different now.
He had become the young master of the Chu family.
With a noble status.
As long as he didn't make mistakes, he would enjoy the best cultivation environment the Chu family had to offer.
"Eh?" "This little maid..."
Suddenly.
Chu Chen's eyes narrowed, and he looked at the maidservant in the corner of the courtyard.
"This little maid looks so familiar..."
Suddenly.
A memory fragment flashed through Chu Chen's mind, and he instantly understood the identity of this maidservant, his expression changing drastically.
This maidservant was actually the woman who was once engaged to him.
"Damn it!"
"My engagement was supposed to be held by Sister Liu Rou! She actually married that trash Chu Feng?"
