Chapter 972
Zi Chen left with Bing 'er.
The two of them looked at the two's back, their faces full of bitterness, but more than that, they rejoiced. After hanging for a month, Wu Yu might have died, but the Wu Family was saved.
"Uncle Hei, what happened?" Wu Mei and the others ran over from afar.
The big man looked at Wu Mei and snorted, "It's all your fault, you almost killed the entire Wu Family."
Wu Mei's face paled, the thing she was most worried about had happened. She asked, "Uncle Hei, what happened? Isn't he in the True Energy Boundary?"
The big man was furious when he heard that. If he was in the True Energy Boundary, then what were they? Mortals or True Energy Boundary?
The old man's face was still ashen. The big man coldly said, "Bullshit True Element Boundary. His strength is much stronger than the two of us. Not to mention us, even if your father came, he would be able to crush him with a single finger."
"What?" Wu Mei's face changed, and fear appeared on her face. She said incoherently, "Then, then what should we do?"
"What else can we do? Let Wu Yu hang there. As for you, quickly follow me back to find your father." The big man said angrily.
Wu Mei obediently followed the two back, leaving the other youngsters behind.
"Strange, if Bing 'er's bodyguard is so powerful, why didn't he kill Wu Yu and slaughter the entire Wu Family?"
"Yes, such a beastly act should be punished by death."
The other people's pale faces returned to normal, but their eyes were full of doubt.
"Uncle Hei, is what you said true? Bing 'er's bodyguard is really that powerful." On the way back, Wu Mei said carefully.
"Your Uncle Wang and I were almost scared to death just now, do you think it's fake?" The big man stared at Wu Mei.
Wu Mei hesitated for a moment, then asked, "Then why didn't he kill my brother and not pursue this matter?"
Wu Mei's question startled the big man. Yes, why?
The two of them were also very puzzled, then they looked at the old man. The old man sighed and said, "The opponent's strength is unfathomable, but he didn't appear before, only when the little girl was in trouble did he appear. I guess you guys planned this behind her back, and he already knew."
"Then why didn't he stop it earlier?"
"I think it has something to do with that little girl. She's too innocent and doesn't know the dangers of the world. The other party probably brought her out to gain experience."
The elder sighed and said, "Training is one thing, but what we should be praying for is that they are soft-hearted, because this kind of matter is enough to implicate the entire family. If they really want to exterminate the Wu family, there is nothing we can do."
"What about your younger brother?" Wu Mei asked.
"Wu Yu, no one can save him. Maybe your father has a way."
The group hurried back to the Wu Family and called out Wu Zhen, who was in seclusion.
When Wu Zhen heard what had happened, he flew into a rage. "What? You bunch of disappointing things only know how to cause trouble. Do you think the people of the aristocratic families are so easy to bully? It's one thing for a child to not know the severity of the situation, but you guys? Not only did you not advise him, you even dared to help him.
Wu Zhen reprimanded the three of them like dogs. The three of them didn't utter a single word.
"Is the other party really so strong that even you guys aren't his match?" After reprimanding, Wu Zhen asked.
When the big man heard this, a bitter smile appeared on his face. He said, "We didn't even dare to make a move, how could we be his match? Not to mention us, big brother, we can feel that if you go against him, you won't even be able to withstand a pinch of his finger."
The corners of Wu Zhen's mouth twitched, but there was also a look of horror on his face. Obviously, they had really kicked an iron plate.
"Hurry up and give me the things you swindled. Come with me," Wu Zhen said angrily.
"What are we going to do?" Wu Mei asked.
"Of course we're going to apologize and kowtow to apologize. Do you think we're going to propose marriage for you?" Wu Zhen glared.
The four of them quickly left the Wu Family and went to Zi Chen's residence.
In a short time, the entire Red Fruit Town was spreading the news, and it was the most authentic version.
Wu Yu had been hung for a long time, but the Wu family didn't send anyone to deal with him. Obviously, the other party had a great background.
In the room, Bing'er's face was full of self-blame and guilt, but more than that, she was disappointed. This morning, she was in a hurry to go out and didn't even bring the little white fox. She didn't expect this to happen.
Zi Chen stood in front of Bing'er and asked, "Are you still going out?"
Bing'er shook her head, her face full of grievance.
Zi Chen patted Bing'er's head and said, "You're still young and don't know anything. It's not wrong to treat people with sincerity, but you can't trust others easily. That Wu Mei didn't have good intentions when she contacted you. Do you remember the Beauty Rejuvenating Pill? Its quality is extremely low, and a bottle is only worth a few low-grade primal stones. She sold you a bottle for a thousand primal stones.
She was lying to you. "" Also, the clothes you bought recently are for ordinary people. They don't have any effect, but they look luxurious. These things are only worth a few primal stones. They're even willing to buy them with gold and silver. "
Bing'er blankly looked at Zi Chen and said, "Isn't gold and silver more valuable than primal stones?"
Zi Chen smiled and said, "Gold and silver are only the currency used by ordinary people. Primal stones are the currency used in Tianwu continent. The primal stones you spent before, if exchanged for gold and silver, should be enough to exchange for a dozen mountains."
Bing'er looked at Zi Chen in shock.
"It's my fault, I didn't tell you in advance. But today's matter is also a lesson. You have to remember it in your heart."
Bing'er nodded and said, "I know. I won't trust anyone in the future."
Zi Chen smiled and said, "It's not that I don't want you to trust me, but you have to have reservations. Don't trust others so easily. Don't you want friends? When we go back, I'll introduce you to some friends. Those are real friends."
Zi Chen was aware of Bing'er's every move in the small town, including the conversations and schemes of Wu Mei and the others. Zi Chen didn't stop Bing'er, so that she could learn from her mistakes.
In the past, he had also been betrayed. But at that time, there had been no one behind him. If it hadn't been for his heaven-defying luck, he would have long since died.
Zi Chen was destined to not be able to accompany Bing'er forever. So when she was under his protection, it wasn't a bad thing to suffer a bit.
Bing'er was still a child. With Zi Chen's persuasion and guidance, as well as changing the topic, she quickly became happy. However, Zi Chen could see that today's lesson had been deeply engraved in her heart.
"Senior, Wu Zhen has come to bring my daughter to apologize."
Wu Zhen's voice rang out from outside. Zi Chen frowned slightly and indifferently said, "You know how to conduct yourself."
If it had been someone else, they would definitely have been infuriated. Or perhaps they would have directly gone to save their son. Of course, if it had been someone else, perhaps Wu Zhen would have done the same.
"Wu Zhen has come to bring my daughter to apologize. Senior, please open the door," said Wu Zhen when Zi Chen didn't reply.
Zi Chen looked at Bing 'er. The smile on Bing' er's face had disappeared. It was obvious that she was still angry.
She directly walked to the door and opened it. Seeing Wu Mei kneeling on the ground with a guilty expression, she icily said, "You can leave. I don't want to see you again."
Wu Mei's mouth opened as if she wanted to say something, but Bing'er directly slammed the door in her face.
The three people outside exchanged glances. They didn't know what to say.
"You can leave." Zi Chen's voice rang out from within the room.
"Senior, we've come to apologize. Here are these things." Wu Zhen took out the yuan stones that Bing'er had given him, as well as other things. There were a lot of them. They were over eighty percent of the Wu family's wealth.
"There's no need. I've already given them to you. You can leave." Zi Chen's voice was much colder.
"Senior, we're just a branch of the Wu family. Please show us some mercy," said Wu Zhen.
"You have two choices. The first is for the Wu family to be exterminated and everyone to die. The second is for Wu Yu to stay outside the town for a month."
Zi Chen's indifferent voice was filled with indifferent killing intent. The four of them couldn't help shivering.
As expected, every expert was decisive when it came to killing.
Wu Zhen could only leave unwillingly. He didn't even go outside the town to see his son, nor did he give him any help. He didn't dare.
After returning to his residence, Wu Zhen's expression changed, and he sighed repeatedly. No one knew that this Wu of Wu Zhen's was the same Wu as the illustrious Wu of the eastern region. As for Wu Zhen himself, he was also an expert. However, he had committed a grave mistake and had been banished from the Wu family.
In truth, he had no relationship with the Wu family at all. That was because the Wu family didn't even acknowledge his existence. However, he had another life-saving straw.
"Whatever, whatever. Since things have gotten to this point, I can only trouble him." Wu Zhen waved his hand and took out a jade pendant.
The jade pendant emitted a blue light. There was a dragon and phoenix carving on it, and on the other side was the character Wu.
Of course, the reason he had suffered such an unimaginable injury was to save one person. Back then, that person had given him a medallion and told him to come find him if he needed help.
Over the years, Wu Zhen had never come to him for help. But today, for his son, he had no choice but to use this method.
"Peng." The jade pendant was crushed and a sense of urgency was released from it.
In the distant Wu family, a young man sensed the aura and frowned. He looked in the direction of the aura.
"This is the aura of the jade pendant I gave to Wu Zhen back then. I think he must be in trouble. Back then, in order to save me, he suffered an unimaginable injury, and his cultivation base regressed. Even his precious pill couldn't recover. This is what I owe him. Now that he's in trouble, I must do my best to help him." The young man's eyes were filled with determination.
His status in the Wu family was very high, and he had come from the ancient road. On the ancient road, he had advanced to the Xiantian realm, so his strength was naturally terrifying.
This time, he didn't even bring anyone with him.
A few days later, the young man arrived at Red Fruit Town. Wu Zhen had been waiting outside the town. When he saw the young man arrive, his face flashed with excitement, and he quickly went to greet him.
"Wu Zhen, what happened?" the young man immediately asked.
Wu Zhen shook his head and sighed. "Ah, the family is unfortunate. Wu Yu, since you're here, I'll leave this matter to you. Let's go back first. I'll tell you the details."
On the way back to the town, Wu Yu saw Wu Yu tied up outside the town. He frowned, wondering who was so cruel to tie him up. It was obvious that he had been beaten up before.
In the living room, wine and dishes were served. Wu Zhen recounted Wu Yu's matter. He didn't exaggerate, but told the truth.
"Wu Yu, I'll leave this matter to you," Wu Zhen said.
Wu Yu frowned and said, "This matter is your family's Wu Yu's fault. It's commendable that the other party didn't kill you to vent his anger. But since I'm here, I'll settle this matter for you. If reason doesn't work, then use your fists."
Wu Zhen's expression changed. "I'm afraid that won't work. The other party is very strong."
Wu Yu smiled. "This time, I've advanced to the Xiantian realm. As long as the other party is still in the Core Essence realm, I think I can deal with him. Even if he's …"
As Wu Yu spoke till here, he immediately paused. Wu Zhen's expression also changed. The two of them turned their heads, their eyes seemingly penetrating the wall and landing on the ground below.
