C390 The Score Was Settled
After being surrounded by the blockade, all the merchants that could leave the Chen Family Fortress had left, leaving behind only the few hundred clansmen of the Chen Family as well as those related to Chen Family. In total, there were no more than a thousand people there, which was why Chen Yu was able to see an incomparably empty and desolate scene when he returned on his Red Crown Eagle.
In these three days, there weren't many outsiders who came to the Chen Family Castle, but both the Jun Family Battlefield and Yan Clan had sent many people over, and also delivered a large amount of resources for materials and dance. All of these were freely provided to the Chen Family Stronghold, to thank Chen Yu for bringing Jun Che, Yim Zifong and the other two into the Ruling Spirit Sect.
Before that, the three families had all sent supplies to the Chen Family Fortress, but there wasn't much supplies, just enough for the Chen Family Fortress to maintain. When they didn't know whether Chen Yu would be able to come out alive from the Ruling Spirit Sect Punishment Tower, they obviously wouldn't be able to place all of the treasures on Chen Yu.
Of course, this kind of great favor was not enough for them to completely lose face for Su Family. Of course, when Chen Yu returned as an inner disciple of Ruling Spirit Sect, everything changed.
So, Chen Yu treated the three family masters with respect, but there was no need to say how grateful they were. It was just an exchange of benefits.
Aside from the three Patriarchs, the other people of the three hundred prefectures, such as Castle Lord, also heard the news and moved. However, Liu Tie didn't see any of them and let Chen Wenfaang handle them.
With regards to the fortress that had people participating in the siege of Chen Family Castle, Chen Yu's original intention was to make eye for eye, tooth for tooth, and break through each and every one of them. But after a discussion with Chen Wenfaang, in the end, he only accepted the compensation from the majority of the families.
Chen Family still had to stay in the Minglan City after all. Chen Yu wouldn't be back for too long this time, so although Chen Yu could start a massacre, if they were to form an irreconcilable feud, once Chen Yu left, the Chen Family Fortress would be in trouble.
After all, there were only a few hundred people in Chen Family, which was too little when compared to the population of the large sized castles. Chen Wenfaang, who was the strongest, was only at the third level of Heavenly Astral Stage, so his strength wasn't considered strong.
Of course, those people whose hands were stained with the Chen Clansman's blood, naturally wouldn't be let off.
It was already close to noon, and when Chen Yu walked out of the Patriarch's Palace, his Outer Sect was already filled with a dense sea of heads.
"Ah Yu, you must avenge the dead clansmen. Use Su Qingfeng's head as a sacrifice for their souls!" Someone shouted.
"Ah Yu, you must succeed. However, you are the hope of our family. As long as you are here, our family will prosper. An old man who was leaning on a walking stick walked in front of Chen Yu. He patted Chen Yu's shoulder with his withered hand as he said this.
Chen Yu sighed in his heart. This old man was the last remaining old man in the clan, and when the clan had entered the Divine Meteorite Mountain Range, the death toll between the old and young was extremely high. Amongst those old men who were over seventy years old, this old man was the only one still alive.
At that time, in order to avoid Su Qingfeng's imminent destruction of the Chen Family, the Chen Clansman had to pay a price of blood while carrying old man to help the child enter the Divine Meteorite Mountain Range. This hatred, had already been branded into the bones of Chen Clansman.
"Sixth Grandpa, don't worry. No matter what, I will bring back Su Qingfeng's head. This is what I owe you! "
"Good, good!" The old man's tears flowed as he turned around to make way.
Chen Yu continued to walk forward.
Pairs of eager eyes stared at Chen Yu, giving him a lot of pressure.
Until they reached the city gate, the children and elders of Chen Family were still following them.
At the city gate, the Red Crown Eagle was emitting a monstrous and ruthless might as it waited there. Wen Congann watched as Chen Yu walked in with his tribesmen escorting him and a trace of envy actually flashed in his eyes.
Chen Yu stopped in his tracks, turned around and bowed to all his clansmen. Without further ado, he walked towards the Red Crown Eagle with Chen Wenfaang and the rest.
Chen Wenfaang and Chen Yuan, Chen Wentine and Chen Lee, were intimidated by the Red Crown Eagle's power and might. Their breaths were stifled, but they still resolutely took a step forward.
Chen Yu's battle was too important. Even though there was a certain level of danger, Chen Wenfaang and company had to personally go and watch. Chen Yu could not convince them, so he could only bring Chen Wenfaang and the others along after consulting with Wen Congann.
Without waiting for Chen Yu and the others to come close, the Red Crown Eagle let out a dissatisfied hiss.
Wen Congann's expression changed, he immediately whistled, and went up to comfort the Red Crown Eagle.
Under Wen Congann's comforting, the Red Crown Eagle gradually calmed down.
"I'm sorry, Senior Brother Chen, Duke Guan Yun's personality is a little ruthless. When Uncle and the others get up there, you must take care of them! " Wen Congann said to Chen Yu.
It was very hard to tolerate cultivators with low strength riding on this beast type beast. The fact that Wen Congann was able to do this was a testament to his extraordinary talent in the field of beast taming.
Chen Wenfaang and Chen Yuan were both at the Heavenly Astral Stage level, so they could jump onto the Red Crown Eagle's back by themselves. Chen Lee and Chen Wentine were slightly weaker, so Zhou Tie had no choice but to carry one each and fly onto the Red Crown Eagle's back.
Chen Lee's current strength was at the peak of Qi Condensation, just half a step away from it. Back then, his father, Chen Wenxi, had helped Chen Wenfaang block the blade of Zhang Chaolin's dying knife. Chen Yu and his son owed Chen Lee a favor. Chen Yu had taken revenge for Chen Lee this time, so naturally, he had brought Chen Lee along with him.
Under Wen Congann's comforting words, the Red Crown Eagle flew up unwillingly towards the Minglan City.
However, in less than an hour, the Red Crown Eagle that had originally deliberately slowed down had already reached the Minglan City.
The appearance of the Red Crown Eagle once again caused a commotion within the Minglan City. After knowing that the last time the Red Crown Eagle flew above the Minglan City was something that Chen Yu rode on, the Minglan City did not fear this extremely tyrannical Red Crown Eagle at all. Instead, they were all looking forward to the situation that would change the Su Family and even the entire Minglan City.
Under Chen Yu's guidance, the Red Crown Eagle directly flew towards the Su Family.
It was a pity that Su Family could not tolerate outsiders going over to the to watch this battle. Thus, most people could only gather outside the profound workshop, looking in the direction of Hidden Sword Peak from afar.
The Red Crown Eagle quickly flew past half of the Minglan City, flew past the Everlasting Workshop, and arrived above the Hidden Sword Peak.
Although outsiders were forbidden from getting close, there were still many warriors on the Hidden Sword Peak. Especially the black-clothed guards who were guarding around the mountain peak.
When Chen Yu killed Su Xu and escaped, he had experienced the power of the Su Family Black Cloaked Guards. As he stared at the Black Cloaked Guards, the corners of Chen Yu's mouth curled up into a mocking smile.
Su Family's actions, were all meant to intimidate.
Chen Yu knew that perhaps, in the eyes of the entire Su Family, or even Su Jingxuan, he was only at the seventh level of the Heavenly Astral Stage after all. Even though he had killed quite a few practitioners at the ninth level of the Heavenly Astral Stage, it still wasn't a fatal threat.
This was also one of the reasons why Second Elder Su Jingzhan was unwilling to sacrifice Su Qingfeng. If they knew that Chen Yu could heavily injure the entire Su Family, the five elders might not let Su Jingzhan protect Su Qingfeng.
As the Red Crown Eagle landed, Chen Yu and the rest all jumped down from the Red Crown Eagle.
Wen Congann whistled and let the Red Crown Eagle fly away.
Chen Yu looked at the crowd that had gathered several hundred meters away. The largest camp was the place where Su Jingxuan and the other Su Family elders were leading the higher ups, and amongst these people, Chen Yu also saw Su Yulian, who was looking at Chen Yu with a complicated expression.
Behind Su Yulian, Su Yu, who had a grudge with Chen Yu, had a perturbed look on her face.
Chen Yu also saw Su Qinghuan and Su Tang, they visited Chen Yu two days ago, but Chen Yu did not see them.
Other than that, Chen Yu also saw many familiar faces, including Su Jingyan and Su Xianyi, as well as some Su Family experts who he had chased after and killed when he escaped from the Minglan City.
The other side was the higher-ups of Lu Yuan, Mrs. Ya, and the three great families. Chen Yu took a glance from afar and nodded, his gaze fixed on the last side.
The last faction was the father and son of Su Jingzhan and Su Qingfeng, as well as the more than ten Heavenly Astral Stage warriors who clearly belonged to them.
Su Qingfeng was dressed in a purple robe and still had a calm and luxurious demeanor. However, with such a calm and proud attitude, it was hard to guess what he was thinking inside.
On the other hand, a trace of anxiety flashed across Su Jingzhan's eyes from time to time.
"Young Master Chen!" Su Jingxuan and the other three Elders stepped forward to welcome Chen Yu.
Chen Yu's gaze did not leave Su Qingfeng as he said to Chen Wenfaang and the others, "Dad, you guys go watch the fight at Elder Lu's place!"
"Alright!" Chen Wenfaang nodded. His expression became complicated, but in the end, he only said: "Be careful!"
Chen Yu nodded.
"Young Master Chen." Su Jingxuan saw Chen Yu ignoring him, smiled bitterly and said, "You can rest assured. No matter what, we will guarantee the safety of your father and your people. You don't have to worry!"
"Got it!" Chen Yu said lightly without turning his head and said loudly, "Su Qingfeng, what are you waiting for?"
Su Qingfeng's expression finally changed. As if he had made up his mind, a cold killing intent flashed past his eyes and he took a step forward and said: "Surnamed Chen, you think you can act without restraint just because you're an inner disciple of Ruling Spirit Sect?"
Chen Yu could not help but scold him, "Su Qingfeng, are you still lying to yourself? Since I dared to say it, I have absolute confidence that I can take your life. Do you remember what I said after I slapped you at the Yulee Workshop? "Even though the two year agreement is a bit late, you still have to fulfill it in the end. Today is the day you die, so I'll send you to reunite with your son Su Xu, who has been waiting for you for too long!"
Su Qingfeng's expression immediately turned ashen when he heard that. Back then, Wu Tie's death was his greatest pain, causing him to be furious. It was futile to try to take revenge on the Chen Family Castle.
"Today, I'll use your head to pay my respects to Xu'er's spirit in heaven!" Furious, Su Qingfeng slapped his Storage Bag and took out a sword.
The grudge from back then must be resolved!
