Chapter 412 Remnants of Japan Cause Trouble
On his map, not only was Bear Mountain marked, but the location of the treasure was also indicated.
But unlike his own position, Chu Chen believed that the map taken from the cave in the sacred mountain was obviously more realistic than theirs.
Therefore, someone must be deliberately spreading this information behind the scenes.
But who could be so bored?
Furthermore, what is their purpose? To incite the martial arts practitioners of Great Xia to kill each other.
Looking at the map in front of him, Chu Chen had many guesses popping into his mind.
"Never mind, I'll get what's mine first," Chu Chen thought to himself.
If someone really wants to make things more difficult for me, that's fine too; I won't be stingy with my son's playing.
Then he turned to the second brother and said, "You should go back. There is no treasure here, and even if there were, it is not something you can get your hands on."
Out of consideration for fellow countrymen of the Great Xia Dynasty, Chu Chen finished speaking, pulled Suo Dong up, and headed towards the mountain.
The man from before tried to kill me, but he's dead. These people had no intention of harming me, so why go to such lengths to kill them all?
But now that things have come to this, if they still have ulterior motives, then they shouldn't blame me for being ruthless.
Everyone watched Chu Chen and his companion's departing figures with lingering fear in their eyes.
"Second brother, who is he? Why is he so powerful?"
"Stop talking, I think we should go back. The boss tried to kill him, so he was killed. This man is not to be trifled with!"
After the second brother finished speaking, he led his brothers down the mountain.
The other group, led by a man clutching his still-bleeding thigh, glared maliciously in the direction Chu Chen had left.
"Hmph, if I can't do anything to you, someone else will!"
After saying that, he led his men down the mountain. Perhaps he knew more than the second brother.
Chu Chen led Suo Dong uphill, and after walking for a while, suddenly, another dark figure swiftly swept towards the top of the mountain.
"It seems there are more and more people."
"That's right, young master, and the timing is just right. Could it be that we're being watched?"
Looking at the dark figure in front of him, Suo Dong turned to Chu Chen and said.
"Never mind, whatever other people's motives are, I'm going this time."
Chu Chen didn't stop, and pulled Suo Dongshi along, using their speed to fly towards the mountaintop.
Moreover, its speed was no slower than the previous shadowy figure.
Upon seeing this, Suo Dong's heart tightened. He had always thought that Chu Chen was a master of hidden weapons.
I never expected that the strength they revealed would be so terrifying.
As far as he knew, there was no known technique in the entire Great Xia Dynasty that could conceal one's aura. Could it be that the young master before him was not a native of Great Xia?
Suo Dong's guess was correct; Chu Chen was indeed not from Great Xia, but not in the way she had imagined.
The two continued upwards, and when they reached the summit, wow, it was already packed with people, some standing and some sitting.
Moreover, there were some acquaintances among them.
"Master Xiaoyao, Eunuch Wei, you've come too?"
Chu Chen walked up to the two old men and asked.
"Hey, Chu boy, what brings you here? Did you also receive news of the treasure?"
"Hehe, you've misunderstood. I only found out about the treasure here because I captured her."
Chu Chen smiled at the two of them and casually pointed at Suo Dong.
"Her?" Zhu Liuxiang looked at Suo Dong and said with a puzzled expression.
Immediately afterwards, Chu Chen briefly explained to Zhu Liuxiang the conflict he had with his fellow disciples, Suo Dong and Suo Dong.
Zhu Liuxiang nodded in agreement: "Indeed, there are indeed experts on Luo Zhong Island. I didn't expect them to have come to the Great Xia as well?"
Meanwhile, Eunuch Wei pulled Chu Chen aside and said, "Young Master Chu, although Luo Zhong Island is not large, their island lord is always eyeing the world. They must have sent them here for this treasure that can command mysterious power. Let's leave this man to us."
Chu Chen nodded indifferently after listening.
Previously, I had planned to bring Suo Dong along, hoping to extract some information from her.
However, judging from the current situation, it's likely that the treasure has already been revealed. I can find out by asking Zhu Liuxiang later.
Now that Eunuch Wei has taken over, I'll leave it to him to handle; I don't want to carry a burden myself.
So after handing Suo Dong over to Eunuch Wei, he pulled Zhu Liuxiang aside.
"Master Xiaoyao, do you know what the treasures inside look like?"
"It is said that it was a piece of wood. His Majesty learned that many martial arts practitioners had received mysterious arrow messages, so he sent me and Lao Wei to come and investigate."
"Didn't Master Zhu consider that the gathering of so many martial arts figures here might be a deliberate act by someone?"
“That’s right, that’s why Lao Wei and I came here. After all, people from the martial arts world are an indispensable part of our Great Xia. If someone takes this opportunity to make us kill each other, it would be a great loss for Great Xia.”
Chu Chen nodded after listening. At Zhu Liuxiang's request, it was decided that Eunuch Wei would stay outside while Zhu Liuxiang and Chu Chen would enter the secret realm to search for treasures.
Just as the three were discussing their strategy, a group of about twenty masked men, each carrying a long sword and completely covered in black cloth, glanced at them from a distance.
Immediately, they said in the unfamiliar Da Xia language, "Young Master, the fish have taken the bait. It's time to launch our plan."
"Don't rush. Do you see those three? One is the strongest grandmaster in the Great Xia Dynasty, another is the emperor's personal bodyguard, but that young man will die today because he is the murderer who killed the ancestor."
If Zhu Liuxiang and Chu Chen heard this, they would definitely remember that the so-called ancestor was Kato Shimoe from Japan, and Chu Chen had only killed one Japanese master.
But at this moment, Chu Chen and his two companions were completely unaware that they were actually being watched.
At the command of the young master of the men in black, the group of men in black instantly dispersed.
They slowly moved closer to other smaller groups.
Suddenly, a shout erupted from the crowd: "Ah, treasure! I've found treasure!"
In that instant, everyone turned to look in that direction.
A masked man dressed in black held a handful of gold and silver treasures high above his head and shouted loudly at the crowd.
Wealth is the most tempting thing, and these martial arts practitioners, who had come for the treasure, instantly surrounded the man in black.
Chu Chen turned his head and said, "Is this guy an idiot? He should be keeping quiet and making a fortune at a time like this, why is he shouting it out?"
"Something's not right with these men in black."
Zhu Liuxiang immediately saw through the situation: "This is bad, they're trying to start a fight, we have to find a way to stop them."
