Chapter 19 Night Massacre of the Chen Family
what--
A piercing scream shattered the silence of the night. The head of the eldest son of the Chen family suddenly exploded before the eyes of the second and third sons, his brains mixed with blood splattering all over their faces.
"Big brother!"
"It's the Su family's spirit beast, the giant eagle!"
"He's spotted us! Run!"
By the light shining through the crack in the door, the second son of the Chen family saw a huge bird's beak and was immediately terrified. He grabbed the third son of the Chen family and turned to run away.
Unfortunately, these two ordinary mortals were no match for a winged spirit beast.
Faced with the intruder, Little Grey unleashed its murderous intent, charging forward and piercing the throat of the second son of the Chen family. Then it immediately turned around, extending its sharp claws to rip open the head of the third son of the Chen family.
Upon hearing the screams, Su Qingyan and his wife Zhang Hui rushed out of the cultivation room. As soon as they opened the door, they saw a headless corpse. The gruesome scene shocked the couple, and their minds went blank for a moment.
Before I could even catch my breath, the next second I saw Little Grey killing the second and third sons of the Chen family.
Chirp chirp chirp—
After securing a triple kill, Little Grey let out a series of piercing hisses, excited and thrilled.
Su Qingyan couldn't understand the meaning of each of Little Grey's cries, but he could "hear" the specific meaning that Little Grey wanted to express through the soul connection between them, and it was very clear.
"Little Grey said that these three intruders were masked and had been sneaking around our door eavesdropping for a long time, showing no signs of leaving."
"It said this was a provocation against it as the owner of the territory, so it killed them."
"Little Grey did the right thing, but this is too bloody, ugh..." Zhang Hui frowned, couldn't hold it in, and ran to the side to vomit for a while.
Then, rubbing her stomach, she turned around, her face a little pale, and said thoughtfully, "Recently, my breasts have been very swollen, and I often feel nauseous and want to vomit, not just this time."
"I reckon she's most likely pregnant with her second child..."
Upon hearing this, Su Qingyan, who was supporting his wife, immediately lost his serious expression and smiled brightly.
He exclaimed in surprise, "Really?"
"I never imagined that the tradition of our Su family's single-lineage succession would be broken by me so soon. I really... don't know how to express my joy."
Zhang Hui forced a smile and said, "I never thought I could get pregnant so quickly after becoming a cultivator."
"It seems our Su family's luck has turned around."
After a pause, Zhang Hui pointed to the two corpses at Little Grey's feet and said, "Have a doctor come over tomorrow to take a look and check their pulses."
"Now, my husband, you should first go and find out who these three men in black are."
"It would be best if you could recognize it."
Zhang Hui was a little worried about her pregnancy, wondering if she was mistaken and needed to consult a doctor to confirm.
Su Qingyan, on the other hand, had no such concerns.
This was the result after he invested 2 points of his family's luck.
Since his wife has feelings for him, things are basically settled.
"I hope my second child will have spiritual roots!" Su Qingyan prayed in his heart, without explaining anything to his wife, and turned to walk straight towards Little Grey.
Lifting the blood-soaked mask, Su Qingyan frowned immediately and exclaimed in surprise, "Isn't this the second son of the Chen family?"
They immediately removed the mask from the other corpse as well, and saw that it was the third son of the Chen family.
Su Qingyan stood there stunned for a moment, his mind racing. Combining recent events with known information, he quickly pieced together about 70-80% of the story.
Then he turned to his wife, Zhang Hui, and said, "They are the three Chen brothers."
"That one with the headless head must be the eldest son of the Chen family."
"When we were building our new house recently, we kept a close watch on the spring. Rumors about our family spread like wildfire in the village. They all said that we were hiding a magical treasure. I suspect that the three Chen brothers believed this rumor and wanted to steal our treasure."
"They've got some nerve."
"Knowing that our house is guarded by a spirit beast, they still dare to do such petty theft."
"That's like lighting a lantern in a latrine—they're asking for trouble!"
At this moment, Zhang Hui also came over, her slightly pale face showing a solemn expression, and said, "It's not a good thing that the three Chen brothers died in our yard."
"Previously, our Su family and the Chen family only had some conflicts of interest, and there was still a possibility of mediation."
"Now...we've become mortal enemies."
"The Chen family only had three brothers in this generation, and they all died at our hands."
"If the Chen family's immortal seedlings find out about this, they will definitely not let us off the hook."
"Then let's handle it cleanly and not let her know." Su Qingyan thought for a few seconds and continued, "It's a good thing this happened at night. If it had happened during the day, I really wouldn't know how to handle it."
"Since the Chen family is so eager to die, then let's grant their wish."
"Now that the three Chen brothers are dead, the Chen family only has two old men and six little kids left, not counting the immortal seedling who went to the Moon Shadow Sect."
"I didn't want to make things so cruel, but the Chen family has been forcing me!"
"In order to survive, I have no choice but to ask all of you Chen family members to go to hell and reunite."
"Wife, clean up the bloodstains in the yard. After Xiao Huihui and I finish dealing with the bodies of the three Chen brothers, we'll go to the village and wipe out all the remaining 'remnants' of the Chen family."
"The entire Chen family disappeared, and no one knew that the three Chen brothers died in our house."
"It is indeed quite unlucky that these three short-lived people died in the newly built house."
"Although I don't believe in this, it does feel a bit off-putting."
After listening to her husband's plan, Zhang Hui tacitly agreed, but added, "That's all we can do for now. Remember not to make too much of a commotion."
"Furthermore, revenge between cultivators often doesn't require evidence."
"Once we've dealt with the Chen family's affairs, we need to go to the market as soon as possible to see if there are any suitable defensive formations. We need to save up some money and find a way to buy them to prepare for the Chen family's retaliation from their immortal offspring in a few years."
"Plan this out early to avoid being caught off guard."
"My lady, you've thought things through perfectly." Su Qingyan turned around and agreed. Then, together with Xiao Huihui, they moved the bodies of the three Chen brothers into the woods and buried them under the red ginseng plants.
Consider it a way to make use of waste and fertilize the land.
After working for so long, it's already past midnight.
When Su Qingyan brought Little Grey to the village, there was no one on the road. Every household had closed their doors and windows, and there were no lights in sight. Instead, the sound of snoring could be heard everywhere.
The houses in the village are all wooden, and the sound insulation is very poor.
A dozen minutes later, Su Qingyan and Xiao Huihui arrived at the entrance of a newly built house on the west side of the village.
Since the Chen family's immortal seedlings were taken in by the Moon Shadow Sect, the three Chen brothers have taken advantage of this power to seize a lot of wealth. The original dilapidated wooden house was demolished and rebuilt into a large mansion.
Su Qingyan gave Xiao Huihui a few brief instructions.
Little Grey immediately took off, circled the rooftops of the various houses in the Chen family compound twice, and quickly brought back information about which houses had people inside.
Over the next hour or two, Su Qingyan and Little Grey worked closely together, easily cutting open the locks on the doors of each room in the Chen family mansion.
They moved very quietly, and the remaining members of the Chen family were still asleep when Little Grey pecked through their foreheads, killing them silently, leaving none alive.
Not even a scream could be heard.
After killing all the Chen family members, Su Qingyan took advantage of Little Grey's fast flight speed to airlift all the corpses and blood-stained bedding from the Chen family mansion to the woods for centralized disposal.
Overnight, all members of the Chen family, except for the Immortal Seed at the Moon Shadow Sect, perished.
And so, a few more days passed.
Rumors began to circulate in the village that the three Chen brothers had made a fortune and moved their entire family to the immortal city where cultivators lived, to live with their immortal offspring, Chen Linlin.
As for how many people believe the rumors.
This is not important.
Time will smooth over all doubts.
