Chapter 280: Chapter 300: Why Not Ask That Person For Help?_1

The atmosphere in the Chu Family Villa was heavy.

Chu Songhan, the cultivation genius of the Chu Family who had been away for many years, had returned. However, he was ambushed and killed before he even stepped into his family home.

Chu Songhan’s body had been treated by the mortician and was resting peacefully in a coffin, his face serene, no longer showing any signs of struggle, and no bloodstains were visible. It looked as if he was merely sleeping.

Chu Songfeng’s face was cold: "Xiao Jiu is dead. What should we do now?"

Chu Tianyu looked uneasy, remaining silent.

He had always admired his Ninth Uncle, who was daring, not caring about right or wrong, and doing what he wanted. He couldn’t wait for his return, hoping that he would silently take care of Lin Chen and slowly torture him. Chu Tianyu would stand by and witness Lin Chen’s fate worse than death, and then his hatred would be vented.

But now, Chu Songhan was dead, killed by Lin Chen.

The Chu family had just attempted to assassinate Lin Chen, but Lin Chen immediately retaliated. The difference was that the Chu family had failed, while Lin Chen succeeded.

Lin Chen didn’t lose a single hair, but the Chu family lost a grandmaster murderer hidden outside, a highly deterrent killer.

Chu Xuankong’s face was cold: "I just want to know, how did Lin Chen find out about Xiao Jiu’s whereabouts?"

Chu Songfeng said: "When Xiao Jiu came back, he booked his flight with his own passport. As long as you can access the air traffic system, you can find out Xiao Jiu’s flight."

Chu Xuankong said coldly: "Back then, Xiao Jiu had announced that he was dead, and very few people knew that he was abroad. How would Lin Chen know after so many years, and why would he check?"

Chu Jianfan frowned: "Is it really because some people in the Chu family don’t want Xiao Jiu to come back, so they informed Lin Chen and used his hand to get rid of Xiao Jiu?"

As soon as these words came out, the rest of the Chu family looked at each other with subtle expressions. After all, everyone clearly knew the reason why Chu Songhan was expelled from the family and sent abroad.

If Chu Songhan hadn’t crippled that person back then, whether Chu Songfeng could sit in the position of the family head would still be uncertain.

Chu Songfeng noticed the subtle gazes of the crowd and firmly denied it: "Lin Chen openly spoke in front of Yang Yifan yet didn’t do anything to him. Obviously, he was deliberately framing us and making us suspicious of each other. The decision to bring Xiao Jiu back was known only to a few of us, and it’s impossible that someone leaked the information to Lin Chen."

Someone asked: "Then why would Lin Chen suddenly check Xiao Jiu’s whereabouts?"

Chu Songfeng was silent for two seconds: "Although very few people know about Xiao Jiu going abroad, it is not a secret. Lin Chen can’t deal with us on his own, so he must find help..."

Chu Xuankong raised his white eyebrows: "The Wei Family?"

Chu Songfeng nodded: "The Wei Family also knows about Xiao Jiu’s situation. After all, they have been our mortal enemies for generations, and they keep an eye on us and know our matters quite well. If Lin Chen sought the Wei Family’s help, it’s entirely possible that they would tell him about Xiao Jiu."

Chu Xuankong remained silent for two seconds: "Since we’ve ruled out our own people, then let’s not create any more trouble. Think about what to do next."

Someone angrily said: "Isn’t he working at the pharmaceutical factory? Gather all the combat power of the Chu family and surround him to kill him directly. I don’t believe he can escape!"

Chu Songfeng said coldly: "Do you want to commit murder in broad daylight? Have you considered the consequences? Moreover, even if we can suppress the consequences, can we guarantee success? If we fail, he will definitely go into hiding and retaliate against us from the shadows. Who can stop him?"

"Even if we succeed and kill Lin Chen, will the grandmaster around him retaliate? Will his Master Xue Kuangren retaliate? Once they no longer confront us directly, how do we kill them?"

Everyone fell silent.

The trouble with grandmasters was precisely this: if you don’t kill them in one hit, you’ll have a headache later on.

Killing a grandmaster with connections was even more difficult because you had to not only defeat them with your martial prowess but also be able to deal with the vengeance of the forces behind them.

Xue Kuangren was a well-known expert and lunatic. If he went crazy, the Chu family might not be able to withstand it!

Someone said resentfully: "It’s just that our Chu family doesn’t have a great grandmaster. Otherwise, we could silently kill Lin Chen and let him disappear from the human world. If his crazy master came, we could suppress him as well!"

A great grandmaster?

Chu Xuankong’s face turned slightly colder. He had been a grandmaster for several decades and was stuck at the peak’s threshold for a long time, unable to take that final step. Wasn’t this remark a slap in his face?

Chu Songfeng thought for a moment, his gaze falling on Chu Xuankong: "Grandpa, can we ask the person from the Zhu Family to help us? I remember that the Zhu Family seems to owe us a favor..."

Chu Xuankong pondered: "It should be feasible. The Zhu Family is powerful and does not fear Xue Kuangren."

A joyful look appeared on Chu Songfeng’s face: "Why don’t we ask him for help? Otherwise, more people in our Chu family might die or be injured. I even suspect that the next target for Lin Chen will be our two uncles and you, Grandpa..."

After hesitating for a moment, Chu Xuankong finally made a decision: "Invite him to the Mid-Autumn Ancestor Worship ceremony in two days and make this request in front of the ancestor’s tablet. He probably won’t refuse."

Chu Songfeng’s eyes shone with excitement: "Alright, I’ll go arrange it."

Chu Xuankong cautioned: "Be discreet. Don’t alert anyone, and don’t let anyone know he’s coming..."
