Chapter 991 A Turn for the Better from the System?

"It has nothing to do with you. The leader of the Dark Group attacking others is undetectable even by a King-tier..."

"Unless you have the old man escort you, but that's impossible... You've actually done very well..."

Qin Tian quickly comforted him. He didn't want Chen Shu to collapse because of Zhang Dali.

It was something no one wanted to see if China lost two generations of geniuses at once.

"Yes... I should have let the old man accompany me..."

"I should have let the old man accompany me..."

Chen Shu shook his head, muttering repeatedly, like a neurotic.

The four King-tiers beside him felt a chill in their hearts and instinctively moved away from Chen Shu...

At the same time, the scene of the God of Cookery being assassinated on the spot had spread globally.

For a time, the whole world was in an uproar, and everyone was shocked by what they had seen.

"Damn it, there's no justice! With the official forces so powerful, can't they annihilate all the criminal organizations on Blue Star?"

"Yes, this is a global live broadcast, and it's the award ceremony of the God of Cookery Cup! It's like defecating on the heads of all major countries!"

"It's a pity for such a genius. He's only twenty-two years old, and he might truly become a legendary spiritual chef..."

Despite the global outrage, it couldn't bring back the death of the new generation God of Cookery.

"What a pity. If I had known, I might as well have given the God of Cookery trophy to me..."

At this moment, a teasing voice entered Chen Shu's ears.

"!"

Chen Shu suddenly looked up, locking onto the source of the voice. San Feng 11.

He saw a middle-aged mixed-race man at the very front of the crowd smiling at him.

It was Master Mu Tu, the runner-up!

"What did you say?"

Chen Shu's voice was calm, without any emotional fluctuation, but it made those around him tremble with fear.

"..."

Master Mu Tu's heart also skipped a beat, and his breathing became a little difficult.

But thinking of the plan, he could only force himself to calm down.

Just as he was about to speak, his body trembled. Chen Shu had already teleported in front of him.

The distance between them was only ten centimeters!

"I..."

Master Mu Tu looked into Chen Shu's calm eyes, instinctively swallowed, and then retreated several steps.

"Chen Shu, don't be impulsive!"

Fu Ning, who was beside him, quickly stopped him. This was a live global broadcast, and ten big figures from the culinary world were present.

If Master Mu Tu was indeed the murderer, even killing him would not be a big deal, at most, he would only be investigated afterward.

But if the other party was just an innocent bystander, killing him in public would be a huge issue.

Master Mu Tu was the runner-up of the God of Cookery Cup and a King-tier spiritual chef, not an ordinary person.

If he were to be made a scapegoat for Chen Shu's outburst, the World Spiritual Chef Association would come to condemn him.

At that time, no one could protect Chen Shu!

Seeing the four King-tiers stopping Chen Shu, Master Mu Tu felt relieved.

He smiled slightly and said softly, "It's just the death of a brother, do you have to be in such a hurry?"

"..."

Chen Shu's anger kept rising, his killing intent turning into substance, and people around him silently moved away.

"My family suffered a disaster back then, and many people died. I wasn't as sad as you were..."

Master Mu Tu shook his head, then said with a strange expression:

"Sorry, I said too much. Remember my name: Master Mu Tu..."

"!"

Chen Shu's eyes moved, and his mind instantly understood!

His voice was cold as he slowly said:

"Mu Tu... Mu Tu... You are from the Du family in Lan Hai City..."

"What Du family, I don't know what you're talking about..."

Master Mu Tu shrugged, looking confused and innocent.

"Alright, stop talking!"

At this moment, the four King-tiers beside them couldn't understand the conversation between the two.

But they didn't want Master Mu Tu to provoke Chen Shu, and wanted to forcibly separate them.

"..."

Chen Shu's mind temporarily recovered, and he immediately understood everything.

No wonder he felt the other party looked a bit familiar; it was because he bore some resemblance to Du Qing.

Moreover, his spiritual chef skills were so high, yet he was unknown, as if he had appeared out of nowhere. It turned out he was from the Du family, known as the God of Cookery family.

Now that the Du family was associated with the Salvation Church, they were like rats scurrying across the street on Blue Star, so naturally, they dared not make any more noise.

Master Mu Tu seemed to be comforting him:

"Don't worry, my nephew also died. Your brother won't be lonely down there..."

"Shut up!"

Fu Ning roared, even kicking him.

Although he didn't understand the other party's words, it was clearly an attempt to enrage Chen Shu.

Master Mu Tu was held by the golden peacock, preparing to move him away from Chen Shu.

His gaze remained on the distant Chen Shu, a faint smile on his lips.

Others might not understand this sentence, but Chen Shu definitely would.

This already indicated that Zhang Dali's death was related to him.

Last night, the Du family didn't ask for a refund from the Dark Night Organization but changed the mission objective from Chen Shu to Zhang Dali.

It was just assassinating an ordinary person, and the leader of the Dark Group readily accepted it.

Even if it caused global outrage, he didn't care at all. Whether Zhang Dali was killed or not, the Dark Night Organization was already a thorn in the side of the major powers.

"Make your move..."

Master Mu Tu had expectations in his heart, not believing that Chen Shu could truly endure it.

This was another strategy of the Du family!

Since they couldn't kill him directly, they would use other means.

As long as Chen Shu dared to make a move, the four King-tiers present would definitely think he had gone mad and was trying to vent his anger on an innocent person.

To prevent this from happening, they might even cripple Chen Shu's contracted spirit.

And he would only bear a little risk, with no danger to his life.

Even if he wasn't crippled, the result would inevitably be a serious injury, and then the Du family could join forces with Archbishop Kong for the next wave of assassination...

But this was only the best-case scenario.

In another scenario, he would be killed on the spot, and Chen Shu would also be wanted globally, essentially a mutual destruction.

However, there was another possibility: Chen Shu endured it on the spot and chose not to make a move.

But the Du family did not believe that the fierce bandit of Nanjiang would truly remain indifferent. Given his personality, he would avenge his grievances on the spot...

This was already an overt scheme!

Although Dali was the one who died, the Du family's target was still Chen Shu...

Of course, part of the reason was that Dali had snatched the God of Cookery trophy from Master Mu Tu, which made him determined...

Chen Shu was not stupid; he understood this clearly in his heart.

But even knowing the outcome, he still had to make a move!

Especially now that he knew the reason and understood that Dali's death was indirectly caused by him, his heart was filled with guilt.

He absolutely could not let the murderer live for another second!

Moreover, once Master Mu Tu left the scene, he would immediately leave the country of Nanqing. Where would he find him?

But just as he was about to make a move,

The system option he had been waiting for finally appeared!
