Brother Peng, what are you doing? The village chiefs expression changed drastically. He quickly walked over and s.n.a.t.c.hed the hunting saber from Peng Jiuyuans hand.
Foolis.h.!.+ the village chief berated. Brother Peng, what has happened is over. What are you doing?!
Village Chief. Peng Jiuyuan was in tears. He was too ashamed to look at Zhou Shu. Ive let down the ancestors of the Peng family!
The village chief frowned. Why are the Peng familys ancestors involved?
Peng Jiuyuan, you didnt do anything wrong. Zhou Shu walked over and sighed. If I were you, I would have made the same choice. You did it to protect everyone.
Peng Jiuyuan had indeed betrayed Zhou Shu, but Peng Jiuyuan was only an ordinary person. Under the circ.u.mstances, he didnt do anything wrong.
Zhou Shu wouldnt blame him for this. Of course, from now on, Zhou Shu wont work with him anymore.
His relations.h.i.+p with Peng Jiuyuan ended here.
Zhou Shu no longer owed him anything for saving his life.
Facing Zhou Shu, Peng Jiuyuan knelt on both knees and buried his face in the ground. I deserve to die!
Peng Jiuyuan, from now on, we have nothing to do with each other, Zhou Shu said in a deep voice. In the future, stay in Boundary Bridge Village and live your life.
The village chief looked at Zhou Shu and then at Peng Jiuyuan. Theres a story between them?
I Peng Jiuyuans lips moved. He said the word I a few times, but he couldnt even say a complete sentence.
This series of events had caused Peng Jiuyuans worldview to collapse.
Zhou Shus words cut him off from the Ancient Heavenly Court. Peng Jiuyuan didnt know if he should be sad or happy.
Ever since he found out that Zhou Shu was related to the Peng familys ancestral teachings, Peng Jiuyuan had been mentally prepared. He had even thought about what would happen after he died.
But what had happened had made him clearly realize that death was not a matter of words.
Sometimes, it was not that easy to die.
Just as Peng Jiuyuan was in a daze, Zhou Shu turned to the village chief and said, Village Chief, leave now. The Dong familys reinforcements might arrive at any time. You and Cao Yue still have my strength. It shouldnt be a problem to bring the villagers into the mountains.
The village chief nodded and asked, Mr. Cao Shu, were leaving. What about you?
We have to give the Dong family a target so that they wont spend time looking for you, Zhou Shu said calmly.
Only by staying could he give the Dong family a way to vent. Otherwise, with the Dong familys power, if they really searched the mountain, they might be able to find the villagers of Boundary Bridge Village.
Mr. Cao Shu, youre injured. If you encounter them the village chief said worriedly.
He wasnt a fool. Previously, Zhou Shu hadnt made a move. Instead, he had lent them his strength. The village chief had some guesses.
Uncle, Ill go with you. I can protect you! Cao Yue suddenly said loudly, his eyes full of determination.
Little Yue, you The village chief and Peng Jiuyuan were stunned.
Uncle, Ive thought it through. Without strength, my fate cant be in my own hands. I dont want what happened earlier to happen again, Cao Yue said firmly. Uncle, youre injured. I can take care of you by your side. If you encounter the Dong family again, I can help you deal with them!
Plop
Cao Yue suddenly knelt in front of Zhou Shu. Uncle, Im not asking you to take me in as your disciple. I just want to be by your side and learn something.
Zhou Shus expression was calm as he looked at Cao Yue. Do you know what you will face if you follow me?
Little Yue, you cant Peng Jiuyuan said agitatedly.
Cao Yue turned to look at Peng Jiuyuan and said seriously, Uncle Peng, I know youre doing this for my own good. You dont want me to take the risk. But can we really live a stable life if we stay in Boundary Bridge Village? Uncle Qingshan and the others didnt do anything wrong, but they were still killed by the Dong familys knights.
If not for Uncle, we would all be dead now.
Uncle Peng, without strength, there will be no eternal safety. I dont want to see the people around me killed again.
Peng Jiuyuan: You
Uncle Peng, thank you for raising me for the past ten years, but I want to choose my own path. Cao Yues voice became more and more firm. His eyes lit up as he kowtowed to Zhou Shu. Uncle, please give me a chance!
Cao Yue said in a deep voice, I know what Im going to face. Im not afraid of danger. Im not afraid of death.
Zhou Shu looked at him. You chose this path yourself. I hope that you wont regret it one day.
Cao Yue thought that he would be facing the Dong family of the Zhu Rong Heavenly Kingdom.
He probably didnt expect that Zhou Shu wasnt from the Zhu Rong Heavenly Kingdom. If he followed Zhou Shu, he might be involved in the grudges of the Ancient Heavenly Court in the future.
The level of danger would definitely be different.
I wont regret it! Cao Yue said in a deep voice.
Get up. Follow me for now. As for how much you can learn, its up to you,
Zhou Shu said.
He did need an errand boy by his side.
Peng Jiuyuan could no longer be used.
Cao Yue was also his savior, and Zhou Shu liked Cao Yues personality very
much.
He was young and malleable.
Zhou Shu wanted to observe him for a while. If possible, he would take Cao Yue in as his disciple.
If he couldnt, Zhou Shu would give him an opportunity to rest easy in the Zhu
Rong Heavenly Kingdom..
