Chapter 226 Xuzhou



Bang!

Are you alright?

Shen Qing burst in, asking anxiously.

He breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Shangwu was unharmed.

"fine."

Shangwu replied that he was referring to Xu Ruiling, who had returned with Shen Qing.

Hello.

Chenyu greeted him awkwardly.

Xu Ruiling walked up and gave her an inquiring look.

“They said their boss discovered the Creation Cult’s stronghold, which is why they’re being hunted down by the cultists,” Shangwu explained. “I was just about to ask them for more details.”

Shen Qing seemed to only then notice the two almost identical brothers, his expression changed slightly, and he gestured to Shang Wu with his eyes.

Did they tell them who their boss was?

"No, I was just about to ask."

Seeing Shangwu's questioning look, Chenyu quickly said, "Our boss is a shareholder of the martial arts company."

"Xuzhou".

Shangwu clutched the scabbard in his hands, his fingers unconsciously tapping on the hilt.

"You said your boss is Xu Zhou, that businessman?"

"That's right."

Chenyu admitted it.

Xu Ruiling's gaze also changed slightly. She looked at the two of them strangely, and then looked at Shen Qing.

Previously, it was said that Xuzhou might be a cult, but now this boss has been attacked by cult members?

Shangwu did not draw any arbitrary conclusions.

If he had been any later in the fight, Chen Yu would have been pierced through the chest by the scythe cultists.

Even for a grandmaster, that would be an absolutely fatal injury!

This point cannot be faked for the time being.

Is there a problem?

Chenyu sensed that the atmosphere was a little subtle, and asked in confusion.

"It's alright." Shangwu shook his head and said, "Your brother's injury can't be delayed. I called for an ambulance, and they'll be here soon. If you're worried, tell me where your boss is, and I'll go check on him."

"Excuse me for asking," Chenyu feigned ignorance, "Who are you people?"

"What I mean is, ordinary martial artists avoid cultists, so why are you going to approach them?"

"Your boss will answer that for you," Shang Wu said calmly.

"Okay then, I'll go with you."

Xu Ruiling said, "Don't force yourself. Your brother's injuries are not minor. You should go to the hospital with him."

"It's alright." Chen Yu had a complicated expression. "My brother and I have already received a favor from the boss. Even if my brother wakes up, he will agree."

"Okay." Shangwu uttered only one word.

After watching the ambulance take Chen Hang away, Chen Yu led the three of them and sped off into the distance, explaining as he did so.

“Our boss has a bit of paranoia. He hired a lot of bodyguards, but he was still not at ease, so he built a secret passage under the Wuxing Hotel.”

"When the cultists appeared, he immediately left through the secret passage."

"Five believers came, but I wonder how the boss is doing now."

The anxiety in his words and his increasingly rapid pace proved that he was indeed very worried about Xuzhou's safety.

"You guys, slow down."

Shen Qing chased after him with difficulty.

"Grabbing the sword."

Shangwu swung his longsword, carrying Shen Qing into the air.

Qin Sheng: ...

"It smells bloody."

Halfway there, Xu Ruiling suddenly stopped.

"not good!"

Chenyu's speed increased dramatically once again, revealing his extreme anxiety.

"Keep up."

Shang Wu and Xu Ruiling followed closely behind, along with Shen Qing who was hanging there…

After a moment, Chenyu stopped and silently watched the scene before him.

Shangwu and the other two also arrived, and their expressions turned somewhat solemn as they looked at the scene.

The earthen ground was now covered by a lid, and a figure leaned against a stone not far away, staining the ground red.

Thin bubbles of blood rose from his stomach, and for a moment the wound that pierced his waist was clearly visible.

"boss!"

Chen Yu instantly appeared beside Xu Zhou and immediately placed his hand on his shoulder, trying to use his energy to keep him alive.

The sound seemed to pull Xu Zhou back from the brink of death. He opened his somewhat cloudy eyes, and a sliver of clarity appeared in his eyes as if in a final burst of energy.

“Chen…Yu…”

Xu Zhou's voice was very low, almost inaudible.

"Xu Zhou! Hang in there! I'll take you to get treatment right away!"

As he spoke, Chenyu's face showed genuine anxiety and worry.

Because this was totally not in the plan!

According to Xu Zhou's original plan, he would stage an attack in front of Shang Wu and the other two. Although it seemed like every move would be deadly, he should not forget that they were believers.

His recovery ability is far more terrifying than that of ordinary people, not to mention Chenyu's flesh and blood armor.

Therefore, this seemingly dangerous attack only existed in Shangwu's eyes; everyone else was just putting on an act.

But by this point, Xu Zhou should have been poisoned by a rare toxin and was barely clinging to life with the help of medical technology, confined to his bed.

This level of understanding is enough to dispel Shangwu's and Shangwu's suspicions.

But now Xuzhou is truly half-dead!

A cold glint flashed in Chenyu's eyes. Could it be that someone had secretly interfered with the plan?

Although it was just acting, the brothers did owe Xu Zhou a favor, and it was with his help that they were able to save the nursing home.

This is true!

"Chenyu, the rest... the rest is up to you..."

Xu Zhou didn't say much, nor was he able to say more.

Although he inflicted the wound on his stomach himself, it did indeed bring him to the brink of death.

He thought his plan was perfect and enough to fool Shangwu, that brat from the Kaitian Academy.

Qin Sheng's words disrupted his thoughts, making him wonder if he might make things worse, so he decided to take a big gamble!

The genius from the academy, Du Shangwu, brought precious elixirs and managed to bring him back from the brink of death!

He loses, he dies, but he can completely clear the Chen brothers of suspicion and leave the rest to them.

If he wins, he lives and then personally delivers the dragon beast into Qin Sheng's hands!

Either way, the dragon beast could fall into the hands of the Creation Cult, with only one's own life at stake.

Xu Zhouyi didn't know why they had to go this far.

He stared blankly at the sky, looking a bit impulsive.

Scenes flashed before my eyes. I remember when I left the Xu family, I was questioned and everyone thought I couldn't achieve anything and couldn't take over the family business.

At that time, he made a bold statement that he would achieve great things without relying on the Xu family, and came to District 11 alone.

After becoming a black market boss, his business was unable to expand until the advent of live weapons.

But unexpectedly, he became a believer and embarked on a different path.

Now that he has successfully taken control of District 11, Qin Sheng, as the leader, still does not believe he can obtain the dragon beast and still wants to personally take action.

Haha, I've really wasted these past years, still so impulsive. I should have thought things through more... I should have...

Slowly close your eyes.

I don't know if it's just my imagination, but the corners of his mouth were actually slightly upturned.

It was as if he was mocking the Xu family and Qin Sheng, saying, "He did it!"
