“Brother Peng, what are you doing?” The village chief’s expression changed drastically. He quickly walked over and snatched the hunting saber from Peng Jiuyuan’s hand.

“Foolish!” 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. “I’ve let down the ancestors of the Peng family!”

The village chief frowned. Why are the Peng family’s ancestors involved?

“Peng Jiuyuan, you didn’t 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 circumstances, he didn’t do anything wrong.

Zhou Shu wouldn’t blame him for this. Of course, from now on, Zhou Shu won’t work with him anymore.

His relationship 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. There’s a story between them?

“I…” Peng Jiuyuan’s lips moved. He said the word ‘I’ a few times, but he couldn’t even say a complete sentence.

This series of events had caused Peng Jiuyuan’s worldview to collapse.

Zhou Shu’s words cut him off from the Ancient Heavenly Court. Peng Jiuyuan didn’t know if he should be sad or happy.

Ever since he found out that Zhou Shu was related to the Peng family’s 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 family’s reinforcements might arrive at any time. You and Cao Yue still have my strength. It shouldn’t be a problem to bring the villagers into the mountains.”

The village chief nodded and asked, “Mr. Cao Shu, we’re leaving. What about you?”

“We have to give the Dong family a target so that they won’t 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 family’s power, if they really searched the mountain, they might be able to find the villagers of Boundary Bridge Village.

“Mr. Cao Shu, you’re injured. If you encounter them…” the village chief said worriedly.

He wasn’t a fool. Previously, Zhou Shu hadn’t made a move. Instead, he had lent them his strength. The village chief had some guesses.

“Uncle, I’ll 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, I’ve thought it through. Without strength, my fate can’t be in my own hands. I don’t want what happened earlier to happen again,” Cao Yue said firmly. “Uncle, you’re 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, I’m not asking you to take me in as your disciple. I just want to be by your side and learn something.”

Zhou Shu’s expression was calm as he looked at Cao Yue. “Do you know what you will face if you follow me?”

“Little Yue, you can’t…” Peng Jiuyuan said agitatedly.

Cao Yue turned to look at Peng Jiuyuan and said seriously, “Uncle Peng, I know you’re doing this for my own good. You don’t 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 didn’t do anything wrong, but they were still killed by the Dong family’s knights.

“If not for Uncle, we would all be dead now.

“Uncle Peng, without strength, there will be no eternal safety. I don’t 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 Yue’s 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 I’m going to face. I’m not afraid of danger. I’m not afraid of death.”

Zhou Shu looked at him. “You chose this path yourself. I hope that you won’t regret it one day.”

Cao Yue thought that he would be facing the Dong family of the Zhu Rong Heavenly Kingdom.

He probably didn’t expect that Zhou Shu wasn’t 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 won’t regret it!” Cao Yue said in a deep voice.

“Get up. Follow me for now. As for how much you can learn, it’s 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 Yue’s 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 couldn’t, Zhou Shu would give him an opportunity to rest easy in the Zhu

Rong Heavenly Kingdom..
