The Tianyun Sect is a secluded sect located in the mountains of Yunnan and Guizhou.

After settling his younger sister Shu Yaqi and aunt into his residence, Shu Tiancheng came to pay his respects to his master Guan Canghai and told him everything about his trip. When his master first heard that his sister had been bullied, he was angry, but as he continued to tell the story, his expression gradually returned to calm.

"Tiancheng, worldly affairs should be left as they are, and martial grudges should be settled through martial arts. This is what I taught you when you first entered the martial arts world. Now, I will remind you of it again, and I hope you will remember it." Guan Canghai always taught his disciples with care and without any fuss.

"Thank you, Master. I will remember this." Shu Tiancheng knelt down immediately upon hearing his master's teachings, but he was still unhappy. "Master, my sister was ultimately murdered. Now she has lost all her memories and her fate is tragic..."

When Guan Canghai heard Shu Tiancheng say this, he stood up, flicked his sleeves, and felt somewhat anxious for his disciple. He had never married in his life, and only took on this disciple when he was over sixty. This disciple was extremely talented and exceptionally intelligent, but he was too straightforward.

A teacher's duty is to impart knowledge and resolve doubts; it seems I have to say a few words about him.

"What a fool you are. Since it is a matter of worldly affairs, it should be settled in the worldly realm. The sect should not be involved. If the other party wants to use sect methods to deal with you, they will have to ask me whether I agree or not."

"Ah! Thank you, Master. I understand."

Shu Tiancheng had thought his master was trying to stop him from seeking revenge in the mortal world when he said those things before, but now he understood. Thinking back on the past ten years, how could his master not understand what he was up to?

"Tiancheng, get up. Although sect rules must be followed, don't be too rigid in everything. Being flexible is the way to get along with people. I heard from you that Li Mu has such skills. He is a rare mentor and friend. If you meet him again, you can ask him for advice. There is no end to the path of martial arts. You also need to go out into the world more and explore other aspects."

.

Shu Tiancheng stayed at his master's residence for nearly two hours, listening to his master talk about the Chen family.

This Chen family of Yanjing is truly extraordinary. Not only do they employ a group of martial artists as thugs, but they also have the powerful Huo Sect Master of the Heavenly Thunder Sect as their backer.

Especially after hearing that the Chen family has a martial artist named Tu Houhong at the peak of the Profound Realm who may break through to the Earth Realm at any time, he figured that if he rashly provoked him, he would probably not fare well.

After analyzing the Chen family, Guan Canghai saw that his disciple still looked determined, so he stopped trying to stop him.

Cultivators initially strive to strengthen their bodies, then defend their families, then their countries, and ultimately seek to exact revenge. If such matters are allowed to fester in one's heart, they will eventually succumb to depression and illness, and may even ruin their path in martial arts.

This disciple, Shu Tiancheng, has been cultivating in the sect for over ten years and has achieved some success in martial arts. Apart from accompanying me on a few outings to visit friends, he has never truly experienced the world. Let this be his experience of entering the world.

Shu Tiancheng understood his master's point about sects not getting involved in worldly disputes, but he felt that if he didn't vent his anger, he would be unworthy of being a son. So, he traveled all the way to Yanjing.

Before he came, his master repeatedly instructed him not to cause too much bloodshed because of personal grudges. Therefore, he had no choice but to give up his plan to kill the entire Chen family. His purpose this time was to cripple all the younger generation of the Chen family so that they would not be able to harm people again.

Thinking of the culprit Chen Jiaxiong who harmed his sister, and then of Li Mu saying that he had killed that guy, he felt very regretful for not being able to take revenge on his enemy.

I wonder what Li Mu, who said he would join me in dealing with the Chen family, would do if he came to Yanjing now.

About five kilometers away from the Chen Family Compound, near a vegetable market, in an old residential area, in a vacant room on the third floor of a building, Shu Tiancheng was sitting on the balcony observing the movements in the community.

His plan has now taken its first step. He's crippled one, and now he'll see who jumps out first. However, the Chen family is already on guard, and he estimates it will be difficult for them to make another move in the short term. They can only lie low, and he has no shortage of patience.

.

Chen Family Compound.

Following Chen Jiaxiong's car accident, the Chen family compound was once again shrouded in gloom. The reason was that Chen Jiaguo, the second son of the second branch of the Chen family, was seriously injured and hospitalized, while his three bodyguards were also seriously injured and unconscious, one of whom was a martial artist in the early stage of the Yellow Realm.

After the incident, the Chen family reported it to the authorities. Old Master Chen, who hadn't left his house for many years, even went out to have tea with someone.

As the head of the Chen family, Chen Jizu was extremely troubled. The whole story had been reported: Chen Jiaguo was attacked while having a secret rendezvous with his lover. Although the three bodyguards did their best to protect him, they still could not save Chen Jiaguo from harm.

If even the martial artists he had raised could be seriously injured, then the person who launched the attack from the shadows was undoubtedly Shu Tiancheng.

Since learning that Shu Tiancheng was coming to Yanjing, Chen Jizu had said to the family more than once that at this stage, the Chen family members must keep a low profile, as danger could occur at any time. His own son had been confined to the house, but this nephew was still causing trouble and dared to go out for a secret rendezvous. He was really courting death.

If the younger members of the family could stay obediently at home and lure Shu Tiancheng to the Chen family compound, the martial artists raised by the Chen family could at least ensure the safety of their family members, if not capture him in one fell swoop. Furthermore, they could track his movements and then work with the official forces to capture or persuade him to leave.

The Chen family is now in a very passive position. Although the official Zongwu Department has opened a case, the person has already been injured, and the murderer is still lurking in the shadows, ready to strike at any moment. So, the Chen family members are no longer able to leave their homes.

"Sigh!" Chen Jizu sighed in his study. He had underestimated Shu Tiancheng. Before, he thought of him as a brute. Now, this man was completely unruly and actually resorted to sneak attacks as an assassin. It was quite a headache to have a Xuan Realm martial artist as an assassin.

.

Today, the old man has already had tea with his superiors, and the Zongwu Department has also agreed to do its best to capture Shu Tiancheng. However, if they want to catch the murderer in the short term, the Zongwu Department may have to use the Chen family's members as bait. Even their own son has to be used as bait. This is not a matter of face; it is a matter of whether the Chen family's foundation is stable.

Thinking about the Chen family's foundation, Chen Jizu picked up the phone on the table, found Huo Zheng's name, and pressed the call button. However, the number seemed to be out of service. He dialed twice in a row and got the same result, so he had to hang up.

Huo Zheng was his nephew. This nephew was exceptionally intelligent from a young age, and his sweet talk was sickening. Whenever he asked for something, even if it was a trivial matter, he would describe it in a beautiful and eloquent way, and he would fulfill all his requests.

The reason why she dotes on her nephew so much is because of her brother-in-law Huo Huanyu. Huo Huanyu is from the Huo family in Yunnan Province. The Huo family is a merchant family. Normally, such a merchant family is not worth mentioning in the eyes of the Chen family, an official family. However, Huo Huanyu has another identity: the sect leader of the Heavenly Thunder Sect.

It can be said that Huo Huanyu is the Chen family's biggest trump card. Over the years, the Chen family has been able to recruit so many martial artists, partly because the Chen family has provided them with a lot of resources, and partly because Huo Huanyu has backed them up. With martial artists under their wing and a powerful backer, it would be difficult for the Chen family not to rise to prominence, unless they are completely incompetent.

However, this powerful backer cannot be brought up openly. Although he is the brother-in-law and the child is already so grown up, they have not been formally married. Nevertheless, those who need to know about this relationship know it, and there is no need to let those who don't know it know.

Chen Jizu put down the phone, rubbed his chin, and irritated. Huo Zheng had run off to find women again, and he had five or six mistresses in various places, and he was still enjoying it.

Normally, if someone needs to contact Huo Huanyu, they have to go through this nephew. Even his own sister can't. Only this son can contact the sect. Now that they can't even find their nephew, how can they make contact?

Chen Jizu had no choice but to pick up the phone and call Chen Jiayu. He needed to find Huo Zheng first before he could arrange the rest of the matter.

Even if Chen Jizu were beaten to death, he would never believe that Huo Zheng was dead, and that the one who killed him was Li Mu, whom he considered troublesome.
