Yu Chuchu

Snow fell in September, blanketing the world in white. Several carriages left deep tire tracks on the road. Although the weather was chilly, it didn't seem to bother the people inside.
"Husband, the weather in the south is nothing like the north. We haven't even reached the capital yet, and it's already snowing everywhere," Mu Huanhuan said, pulling her cotton robe tighter as she looked at the snow outside.
Yan Ying, standing beside her, chuckled, "My dear sister, you really don't appreciate this. Snowy scenery is every girl's favorite, but you're so afraid of the cold. It's such a downer."
Xue Tianjun was currently resting with his eyes closed. His trip to the capital had two purposes: first, to find the water unicorn Huo Huo had mentioned; and second, to find the songstress Liu Yuanyuan, whom he had met at Mu Family Village. He had been missing this woman for a long time. If she hadn't been in such a hurry to return to the capital, Xue Tianjun would have surely won her over at Mu Family Village.
But even those familiar with Xue Tianjun, like Yan Ying, wouldn't have guessed that he had a third purpose in bringing the women to the capital.
Riding in the same carriage with Xue Tianjun were Yan Ying, Mu Huanhuan, Qi Lian, Cheng Huan, and Shangguan Yan. Xue Tianjun also brought along other women: Mei Ji, Ming Yue, and the Si Ye sisters.
Although Wushuang City now consisted only of a city under the jurisdiction of Shi Wuzun, Xue Tianjun had announced to the martial world two days prior that the Tianxia Society and Wushuang City would merge, with the Xuemen as its main force. This news was undoubtedly the biggest shock to the world. The martial world was
instantly engulfed in conflict. However, no sect or gang dared to oppose the unification of the three major martial arts factions. Even the Xuemen, known for its conservative approach, was now seeing all the major and minor sects aligning themselves with it.
The unification of the martial world was something Xue Tianjun was determined to achieve, and his hasty dissemination of this news was purposeful.
After four or five carriages had traveled for two days and two nights, and were now almost at the imperial city, just as dawn broke, Blood Lord ordered them to continue. However, after leaving their temporary village, they hadn't gone far when Blood Lord immediately ordered the caravan to stop.
"Lord, the imperial city is not far ahead. If we stop now, the carriage wheels might freeze, making the journey difficult," said one of the drivers, all skilled martial artists Blood Lord had brought from Wushuang City.
Although he didn't need their help, they were better than those who knew no martial arts.
Blood Lord squinted at the snow-covered road ahead and coldly said, "You all return to the carriages. No one is allowed to get out without my order."
Although the attendants didn't understand why Blood Lord was doing this, they obediently boarded the carriages and gave instructions to all the women inside.
Only then did Xue Tianjun, draped in his long robe, stride forward. Anyone who witnessed his unusual appearance would be astonished. The large snowflakes falling from the sky, though easily melted, would still land on people. However, these dense snowflakes melted and disappeared within a third of Xue Tianjun's reach. After
walking a hundred meters, Xue Tianjun stopped. Not far before him, six people stood facing each other on either side of the road. On one side were four people dressed in black with brocade hats—three men and one woman—each armed, their faces grim and wary.
Opposite them stood a man and a woman. The man appeared to be in his thirties, with a rugged and somewhat frightening appearance. The woman, draped in white robes, looked only seventeen or eighteen, but her appearance was strikingly different.
Seeing that this young girl showed no fear in the face of four armed men, Xue Tianjun merely chuckled, already guessing that these two were no ordinary individuals.
"Yu Yu, you have committed a heinous crime! Today, the Four Divine Constables of the Imperial City will arrest you!"
"My father is completely innocent! You're framing him!" the young girl shouted. The
woman who claimed to be the only one from the Divine Constables sneered, "Yu Chuchu, when your father committed this crime, you were probably still a baby, not even born yet. How would you know what he did?" "
Chuchu, there's no need to explain for your father. The Divine Constables are the highest-level organization in the Imperial City. Yu Yu knows. The four of you are all renowned constables in the martial world. Chi Jiao once captured a member of the Xiong Ba Tian Xia Hui and escaped unscathed. Bai Jiao wiped out the Imperial City rebel army, single-handedly charging into an army of 50,000..." Yu Yu revealed the four men's backgrounds.
Xue Tianjun, standing a hundred meters away, found it amusing. These four members of the Divine Arrest Bureau all seemed quite formidable. The Crimson Flood Dragon even had a conflict with the World Alliance. What intrigued Xue Tianjun most was that the only woman among the four was a newly recruited female constable. No wonder Yu Yu only mentioned her name as Qing Xuan, without mentioning any of her past exploits that had shaken the capital and the martial arts world.
Although Qing Xuan was new to the Divine Arrest Bureau, her martial arts skills were in no way inferior to the other three—the Crimson, Black, and White Flood Dragons. This was no surprise; if she didn't possess some ability, why would the Divine Arrest Bureau, the highest-level organization in the capital, send her to capture a powerful figure like Yu Yu?
"Yu Yu, surrender now and come back to the capital with us, or don't blame us for being impolite," Qing Xuan coldly shouted.
Shaking his head, Yu Yu pleaded, "Four Divine Constables, I, Yu Yu, can go back with you, but I want to take Chu Chu to the capital first to find someone. Once I find that person and settle my little daughter Chu Chu in, I will let you decide my fate."
Qing Xuan was taken aback. As a woman, she had compassion. Although Yu Chu Chu was Yu Yu's daughter, everyone in the Divine Constables' Bureau knew that Yu Chu Chu was a good girl, not a vicious villain, since they began pursuing Yu Yu.
But just as she was about to agree, the leader of the four, Chi Jiao, said coldly, "Yu Yu, you are cunning and treacherous. We've captured you several times, but you've always escaped. This time, we won't believe you. Given your character, if you kill a few more people in our capital, wouldn't the blame fall on all four of us?"
Yu Yu wasn't angry at Chi Jiao's suspicion; instead, he laughed loudly and said, "You can take me into the capital. As long as Chu Chu is safe, I won't resist."
The four exchanged glances. When Chi Jiao saw the three nod, he knew Yu Yu's words were credible. With their combined strength, no matter how powerful Yu Yu was, he couldn't escape.
"Ahem, the four of you bullying an old woman and a young girl like this is truly chilling, colder than this cold weather."
Not far from the six, a person gradually approached them. The group looked around; there were only the six of them and this person who seemed to want to stand up for them.
Upon seeing the newcomer, Yu Yu's face showed confusion, while the young Yu Chuchu smiled upon seeing the handsome man.
Chi Jiao stared at the newcomer and angrily said, "Who are you? Can't you see we're wearing Imperial City Divine Constables' uniforms?"
Seeing him point to the armband on his shoulder, Xue Tianjun shook his head and sneered, "Imperial City Divine Constables, haha, this is the first time I've heard of such an organization. The Divine Constables must be full of divine constables, but as far as I know, countless people in the martial world commit heinous crimes, yet I've never heard of any Divine Constables coming out to arrest them."
"You..." Chi Jiao was about to erupt in anger when Hei Jiao stopped him.
The four divine constables were no ordinary people, but not only did they fail to see what gave Xue Tianjun the right to speak so arrogantly, Yu Yu was also puzzled. He sensed that the man speaking up for him seemed to possess no internal energy whatsoever, and judging by his magnificent robes, he appeared to be a nobleman's son.
What puzzled Yu Yu even more was that although this place was very close to the imperial city, there were no towns or cities within a hundred miles. Could this person have come from the imperial city? But why did he appear when the group was facing off? No one had noticed.
Yu Yu had thought of this crucial point, but the four Divine Constables hadn't.
Qing Xuan, unlike Chi Jiao, wasn't hot-tempered. She looked at Xue Tianjun with her clear eyes and explained, "Martial arts matters are not under our jurisdiction, but Yu Yu is involved in a major case in the capital, so we should bring him to justice."
As she said this, Qing Xuan suddenly felt strange; why was she explaining herself to this person?
Xue Tianjun squinted at Yu Chuchu, remembering how she had broken the Sword Saint's soul-splitting technique with a single finger, how she had changed the history of Xiong Ba's death at the hands of the Sword Saint's sword energy. This girl also had another characteristic: cuteness and liveliness.
"Little sister, you heard it too, your father wants to discuss something with these older brothers and sisters. Big brother will take you over there."
Hearing Xue Tianjun's words, Yu Chuchu pouted and said sweetly, "I'm not going! Besides, I'm not a little sister, and you're not my big brother."
She tightly grasped Yu Yu's hand, her eyes also fixed on him.
At this moment, Yu Yu pushed her away and said in a deep voice, "Chu Chu, listen to this older brother and go play over there with him. Haven't you always wanted to have a snowball fight? Your father doesn't know how, but this older brother does."
As Yu Yu spoke, he looked at Xue Tianjun with gratitude.
Xue Tianjun nodded and smiled, "Little sister, if you don't listen to your father, you're being unfilial. If you're unfilial, you're not a good child."
Yu Chu Chu ignored Xue Tianjun, but she obeyed Yu Yu without question. No matter what Yu Yu's intentions were, she dared not disobey and could only run towards the distance.
"Brother, please take good care of her. If something happens to me, I hope you can take this into the capital."
Taking the letter from Yu Yu, Xue Tianjun was puzzled. He glanced at Yu Yu and smiled, "Don't worry, I won't let anything happen to her."
As Yu Chu Chu followed, the snow continued to fall wildly in the wind. When the two reached a distance, it was difficult to see the five people there; they could only see five black dots.
Seeing Xue Tianjun follow, Yu Chuchu raised an eyebrow and asked, "Who are you and why are you here?"
"Hehe, you're quite suspicious, Miss Chuchu," Xue Tianjun chuckled softly. Yu
Chuchu was taken aback, even more puzzled, "How do you know me?"
Xue Tianjun pointed towards Yu Yu and the four from the Divine Arrest Bureau, and laughed loudly, "You silly girl, I'm an old acquaintance of your father. What happened earlier was just an act. Your father isn't the bad person they say he is. He just hates evil and has offended a high-ranking official in the capital. If I hadn't brought you here, you would have suffered too."
"What? You're saying my father will be in trouble?" Yu Chuchu's eyes showed fear. She was about to run back when Xue Tianjun stopped her.
Xue Tianjun stared at Yu Chuchu and advised, "You'd better not go. All four of the Divine Arresters' Sect's top experts have appeared. Your father can't even handle them himself. If you go, he'll have to divert his attention to you. How can he focus on dealing with those four?"
Yu Chuchu looked at Xue Tianjun with a determined gaze and said coldly, "Get out of my way. He's my father. I can't watch him get hurt."
Xue Tianjun shook his head and said calmly, "Chuchu, going like this is tantamount to suicide. Besides, your father, Yu Yu, will handle this himself."
Looking at Xue Tianjun, Yu Chuchu cried out, "I can't watch him get hurt. Get out of my way."
Seeing her stubbornness, Xue Tianjun chuckled inwardly but didn't stop her.
Just as Yu Chuchu brushed past Xue Tianjun, she felt a tickle on her neck and immediately fell into his arms.
Looking at the little beauty in his arms, Xue Tianjun's lips curled into a wicked smile as he picked her up.
"Husband, who is this girl?" Near several carriages, Yao Shulan and her companion, bored, had come out to admire the snow, some even having a snowball fight.
Seeing Xue Tianjun return carrying a beautiful young woman, everyone crowded around.
Xue Tianjun chuckled softly, "A friend's daughter. Take good care of her. If she wakes up, say you rescued her by the roadside."
Yan Ying and the others didn't know what Xue Tianjun was planning, but his words were law, and no one dared disobey.
Watching Xue Tianjun disappear back into the swirling snow, Yan Ying and Yao Shulan quickly helped the young woman into the carriage.
With a loud "boom," snowflakes on the ground splattered, instantly turning into water droplets that flew like arrows towards the four Divine Constables.
Just as they reached the five men, Xue Tianjun saw Yu Yu make his move. He suddenly punched the ground, creating this shocking scene.
"Yu Yu, you have quite the audacity to resist arrest!" Chi Jiao, one of the Four Divine Constables, roared, clearly disregarding the water arrows formed from the melted snow, and instead raised his sword to strike.
With a whoosh, a crimson sword aura flew from his sword, shattering the incoming water arrows one by one, and heading straight for Yu Yu. Yu Yu remained unfazed, not even moving his body, but simply transformed his fist into a palm, forcefully striking the sword aura that Chi Jiao had suddenly unleashed.
Another bang resounded. Although the sword aura was driven by internal force, Yu Yu was no ordinary martial artist; he actually neutralized Chi Jiao's sword aura with his fist.
"Hmph, Black Jiao, White Jiao, Qing Xuan, let's all attack together! This time, we must capture Yu Yu and bring him to justice!" Chi Jiao roared.
Chi Jiao, renowned as the top constable in the Imperial City and even the entire Central Plains, had intended to show his prowess to the three new constables who had just formed the Four Great Constables with him. However, Yu Yu was the Imperial City's most wanted criminal, and Yu Yu's legend even instilled fear in Chi Jiao.
Hamralak, the most powerful man in the Imperial City, was the Emperor's most valiant and fierce general, but when he became a senior official, he ran rampant in the Imperial City, bullying men and women and committing all sorts of atrocities. Yu Yu had a grudge against him and had killed over a hundred people from his family.
Chi Jiao knew that Yu Yu didn't use swords, but his set of fist techniques terrified many, especially his bare arm, which bore a ferocious-looking beast totem.
Yu Yu was a man who hated evil as if it were his enemy. He never intended to fight with these four constables from the Divine Arrest Bureau. If they would let him take Yu Chuchu into the capital, the matter would be over, and Yu Yu would go back with them to face the charges. However, their bullying was too much, which made Yu Yu want to kill.
"Fine, come on, I want to see how you catch me." Yu Yu laughed loudly.
Before the four could surround him, he had already run towards them with his red arm raised. Looking at his attacking arm, it was actually ignited with raging flames.
Such a strange move stunned the four men, including Chi Jiao. When had they ever seen an arm that could ignite? They all knew that Yu Yu was a master, but no one knew exactly how skilled he was.
"Qilin Arm!" Xue Tianjun, who was not far away, also saw the arm that Yu Yu had used.
Thinking that this was the Qilin Arm, Xue Tianjun couldn't help but smile bitterly. The thought of the Qilin Arm reminded him of Bu Jingyun, but he had already rewritten the landscape of the martial world. Bu Jingyun was his prized subordinate, whom he had trained. Was he really going to cut off one of his good arms in exchange for this Qilin Arm? Even without the Qilin Arm, Bu Jingyun was still a top-tier martial artist.
Watching the five engage in fierce combat, Xue Tianjun could see that the four members of the Crimson Flood Dragon were simply no match for Yu Yu. If Yu Yu hadn't held back, he could have killed one or two of them within a few moves. However, Yu Yu didn't seem to intend to kill; he was merely entangled in a fierce battle with them.
"Pfft..." The Crimson Flood Dragon spat out a mouthful of blood, staggering back several steps.
This was just as Xue Tianjun had expected. Yu Yu hadn't even made ten moves yet, but he hadn't killed him. Otherwise, the most arrogant Crimson Flood Dragon wouldn't have had a chance to survive.
Yu Yu laughed wildly, "I'll show you how I can take on four at once!"
His arrogance didn't earn him any contempt from Xue Tianjun; on the contrary, Yu Yu's boastful words were a testament to his martial arts skills, which far surpassed those of the four, including Chi Jiao.
Just as Xue Tianjun was engrossed in watching, he heard Xue Lan's voice from the Blissful Realm: "Husband, we must find a way to get our hands on that Qilin Arm; it's useful."
"Useful what?" Xue Tianjun was taken aback. He knew the women of the Blissful Realm couldn't shake their bad habit of peeping at him, but Xue Lan's words puzzled him greatly.
In his memory, Xue Tianjun couldn't recall any of his women who were missing an arm. The thought of the Qilin Arm struck him, and before Xue Lan could speak, he asked telepathically, "Is it what Huo Huo needs?"
"Husband, you're right, it's what Huo Huo needs. This Qilin Arm was originally an ordinary arm. Before Huo Huo had cultivated to her current level, she was followed by a hunter who entered Lingyun Cave and stole her Fire Spirit Pill, which he then consumed. But this Fire Spirit Pill isn't something ordinary people can eat. When Huo Huo saw this man's Qilin Arm, she knew it was her Fire Spirit Pill, which is why she created such a powerful fire-attribute arm," Xue Lan explained.
Although he didn't fully understand, Xue Tianjun grasped the point. That hunter who dared to enter Lingyun Cave was incredibly skilled and daring. Seeing Huo Huo, a fire Qilin, he wasn't even afraid and still dared to enter Lingyun Cave. If Huo Huo, being a Qilin, hadn't had impaired eyesight, the hunter would have definitely been discovered.
“But this arm is already attached to him. Wouldn’t it be too cruel for me to take it off?” Xue Tianjun communicated with Xue Lan telepathically, actually wanting to know what Huo Huo wanted the arm for. Even if it was to retrieve her Fire Spirit Pill, it didn’t seem necessary to sever someone’s arm.
After a while, Xue Lan’s voice rang out again.
Hearing her relay Huo Huo’s words, Xue Tianjun finally understood. It turned out that the fire attribute contained within the Qilin Arm could actually remove the seal and restraints on Huo Huo’s companion, Shui Shui.
Thinking of the Water Qilin, Shui Shui, Xue Tianjun had no reason to refuse. If he had known earlier, even if Huo Huo and Xue Lan hadn’t said anything, he would have removed Yu Yu’s Qilin Arm to rescue Shui Shui.
“You’ve gone too far! Four against one! What kind of reputable constables are you?” Xue Tianjun shouted and charged into the battle.
Yu Yu was startled to see Xue Tianjun running towards him, then immediately shouted, "Brother, where's Chu Chu?"
As he approached, Xue Tianjun said, "She's in a very safe place."
Seeing Xue Tianjun in his long robes, the four members of the Divine Arrest Bureau immediately retreated cautiously and huddled together.
Yu Yu alone was enough for them to handle; this young man, though showing no signs of skill, dared to come forward, and his courage was truly inspiring.
"You shouldn't have come. This has nothing to do with you. I hope you'll leave, brother." Yu Yu didn't care about Xue Tianjun's help at all; he just wanted to teach these four self-proclaimed Divine Arresters a lesson. If Xue Tianjun got involved, the fight would undoubtedly become even more intense than before.
Blood Heaven Lord turned to look at Yu Yu, his voice filled with righteous indignation, "I know your name is Yu Yu, and I've heard of your deeds. But this isn't your own business. Chu Chu is my little sister. She asked me to teach these four arrogant fools a lesson. I was just helping her."
"What did you say, brat? Don't think you can be so arrogant just because Yu Yu is here. I'll cleave you in two with one strike!" Black Flood Dragon was an impatient man. Hearing this young man dare to talk back to Yu Yu about the four of them and even threaten to teach them a lesson, he couldn't stand it any longer and drew his sword to slash at Blood Heaven Lord.
At the same time, Red Flood Dragon and the other two joined the attack. They knew Yu Yu's strength, but with Blood Heaven Lord in front, Black Flood Dragon wanted to kill him even more to vent his anger.
He gripped his broadsword and swung it upwards, unleashing a burst of sword energy that struck Blood Heaven Lord with lightning speed.
As the blade energy hurtled towards him, Xue Tianjun suddenly let out a strange cry and retreated. At that moment, Yu Yu behind him moved, unaware that Xue Tianjun was deliberately dodging.
"Brother, get out of the way! You can't block this blade energy!" Yu Yu roared, unleashing his Qilin Arm again, attempting to break the black dragon's blade energy.
Just then, Xue Tianjun suddenly turned and grabbed his hand, crying out, "Brother Yu, I'm so scared!" Yu Yu
was startled and cried out, "Let go!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Yu Yu saw a sinister, triumphant smile on Xue Tianjun's face. He was horrified to see Xue Tianjun's hand reach back and grab the blade energy.
Blade energy is formless; even the most powerful person cannot grasp it. Yu Yu immediately sensed danger. He should have realized this young man was no ordinary person, but now it was too late.
He saw Xue Tianjun grip the blade's energy and suddenly raise it upwards. The blade's energy caught him off guard, and Yu Yu even tried to use his Qilin Arm to destroy it. But when the energy made contact with his arm, Yu Yu realized he had miscalculated.
"Ah..." A scream escaped Yu Yu's lips as a blood-red sword shot into the sky. The
spray of blood stained the silvery earth crimson. Yu Yu clutched his severed shoulder, now devoid of his Qilin Arm, his face contorted with rage as he glared at Xue Tianjun.
In the blink of an eye, the four members of the Divine Constable Crimson Flood Dragon Clan, unaware of this sudden turn of events, were already behind Xue Tianjun. However, Black Flood Dragon didn't hesitate, raising his blade to slash at Xue Tianjun's back.
Xue Tianjun whirled around, coldly saying, "Seeking death."
The words "seeking death," and the chilling gaze, startled Black Flood Dragon. The sudden appearance of the man's sinister smile filled him with boundless fear, but the blade was already raised, and there was no going back.
With a "whoosh," Black Flood Dragon's body flew backward like an arrow. Blood gushed from his mouth mid-air, and before he could even scream, he crashed onto the snow ten meters away, rolling several times before coming to a stop.
When Red Flood Dragon and the others looked, Black Flood Dragon was clearly lifeless.
"No..." Red Flood Dragon roared. He never imagined that one of his four constables would die here.
The sudden turn of events was something Yu Yu and the four constables hadn't anticipated. Who was this young man on their side? He had severed Yu Yu's Qilin Arm, yet killed Black Flood Dragon.
"Who are you? Why did you do this?" Although Red Flood Dragon was shocked by Black Flood Dragon's death, he also knew that rushing in recklessly would only be suicide.
Yu Yu shared his confusion. He couldn't believe that this man, who had initially shown him goodwill, would suddenly and ruthlessly sever his Qilin Arm. Without it, Yu Yu was barely clinging to life; he knew he had no chance of leaving this place.
Xue Tianjun sneered, "Who I am is unimportant, but perhaps this gives you a reason: I dislike you all and want to kill you all."
Hearing this, the three Crimson Flood Dragons trembled. Yu Yu stared at Xue Tianjun in utter disbelief, gritting his teeth, "Where did you take my daughter? She's innocent!"
"Don't worry, Chu Chu will be fine. You should worry about yourself first." Xue Tianjun said, walking towards the Qilin Arm on the snow. He didn't bend down, but in an instant, the Qilin Arm vanished.
Seeing this strange scene, the three Crimson Flood Dragons gasped in shock. Their eyes never left Xue Tianjun; how had he made that bloody, severed arm disappear?
Upon seeing the disappearance of the Qilin Arm, Yu Yu's expression changed drastically, and he said in a deep voice, "You came here just to take one of my arms."
Staring at his ferocious face, Xue Tianjun chuckled in a low voice, "An arm. This is no ordinary arm. It can't play its true role if it stays on you, but it will be of great use in my hands."
"You...you are so vicious..." Yu Yu had forgotten that Chu Chu was still in Xue Tianjun's hands. He was more worried that this person had taken the Qilin Arm. Did he know the true function of the Qilin Arm? Did he want to replace his own arm with the Qilin Arm?
Shaking his head and sighing, Xue Tianjun stared coldly at Yu Yu and said, "This is not viciousness. You are a wanted criminal in the capital. If I kill you, I can go to the capital to claim credit. You killed the Four Great Constables, and I killed you. Tell me, isn't my merit great?"
Yu Yu suddenly grinned maliciously, "Haha, kill me? We'll see if you have the ability."
Just as he finished speaking, Xue Tianjun's figure suddenly soared into the air. Although Yu Yu no longer had the Qilin Arm, he had sealed his mouth. Even if he fought to the death, he firmly believed that he could exchange a few blows with this young and vicious man.
But he was wrong. Blood Heavenly Lord suddenly spun in the air, whipping up thick snow from the ground beneath his feet, rushing towards Yu Yu like a whirlwind.
"Ah..." Yu Yu roared, clenching his remaining right fist and striking at the oncoming snow pillar.
The snow pillar cracked open, swallowing Yu Yu whole. Blood Heavenly Lord spun rapidly in the air for a while before landing on the ground. The snow pillar had transformed into an ice pillar, and through its crystalline surface, Yu Yu could be seen inside, his raised hand frozen.
Clearly, he was dead. The three Crimson Flood Dragons, who had initially harbored thoughts of revenge for Black Flood Dragon, now only wanted to leave this place, to get far away from this fiend.
"Haha, I told you, Yu Yu killed the Four Divine Constables, how can you escape?" Hearing footsteps, Blood Heavenly Lord turned to look at the fleeing Crimson Flood Dragons and laughed loudly.
White Dragon and Black Dragon were the closest of friends, like brothers. But under these circumstances, he had no choice but to abandon his airs as a divine constable, kneeling on the ground and pleading, "Hero, we are all constables of the Imperial City, ordered to arrest people. If we have offended you, please forgive us."
"White Dragon, you..." Red Dragon glared at the kneeling White Dragon. He couldn't believe that a dignified divine constable would kneel before a mere江湖人 (jianghu person, a figure from the martial arts world). What a humiliation!
Qingxuan, the only woman among the four divine constables, was also filled with fear. She was afraid of death, terribly afraid of death. Although she held the title of divine constable, she would rather give it up than die here.
Blood Heavenly Lord looked at Red Dragon and praised, "Good, you have guts. Then I'll make sure you die the most miserable death."
As soon as he finished speaking, a glint flashed in Red Dragon's eyes, and the sword he gripped tightly was held horizontally in front of him. It seemed he wanted to fight Blood Heavenly Lord.
A sudden, dramatic change left Qingxuan disoriented. She vaguely saw the Crimson Dragon's body instantly shatter into pieces, not even having time to utter a scream. She also saw the White Dragon, right before her eyes, swallowed by a black fissure.
Who was this smiling man—god or demon?
His face was reflected in her terrified eyes. Qingxuan trembled, her face deathly pale, and she slumped onto the snow. Death was perhaps her only option.
"Heh, beautiful lady, if you want to commit suicide, you'll have to ask for my permission first."
With a crisp "clang," the sword Qingxuan held to her neck shattered silently. Was this man also going to cruelly kill her, or would he use an even more ruthless method to kill her?
Looking at the expression in his eyes, Qingxuan sighed. Since she couldn't kill herself with a sword, she could only bite her tongue to end it all.
However, before she could bite her tongue, the man's hand had already gripped her chin, forcing her to open her mouth, but her teeth couldn't reach her tongue.
Xue Tianjun leaned down, looking down at the beautiful constable, a wicked smile playing on his lips. "You have no right to commit suicide. Your life is in my hands. I can decide whether you die or live."
Qingxuan nodded subconsciously. She could only obey this man; clearly, no matter what suicidal thoughts arose in her mind, he wouldn't allow her to die.
"Stand up." The man's voice rang out again, and Qingxuan staggered to her feet.
"Your name is Qingxuan?"
"Yes...yes..." Qingxuan answered in a trembling voice.
"My name is Xue Tianjun." The man's self-introduction shocked Qingxuan once more.
This young man was the most famous person in the martial arts world recently. It was he who had turned the Tianxia Society and Wushuang City, two originally irreconcilable gangs, into the number one gang in the martial arts world.
Qingxuan looked at Xue Tianjun and murmured, "You... how are you going to deal with me?"
Xue Tianjun laughed, tilting his head back, "Why would I deal with you? A beauty like you is too precious for me to handle."
Feeling his hand gently stroking her chin, Qingxuan blushed, but his lewdness left her powerless and unable to resist.
"The three of them are dead. Yu Yu is dead. Only you are alive. If you take Yu Yu back to the capital, I think the title of the Divine Arrestor's First Divine Arrestor will undoubtedly belong to you." Xue Tianjun suddenly said this. Qingxuan was
stunned. What he said made sense. If she took Yu Yu's body back, she would definitely be the most famous in the Divine Arrestor's Sect. Even without Yu Yu, although she could be considered the top expert in the Divine Arrestor's Sect, she would have no glory to boast about.
Looking at Qingxuan's expression, Xue Tianjun continued, "Don't worry, I have no hostility towards you. I actually want you to have a good time in the capital. I think you'll know how to explain this to the capital and your superiors when you get back."
Qingxuan remained silent, only nodding indifferently.
"I'll find you. Take this corpse back." Xue Tianjun's figure suddenly left behind many afterimages, and the ice sculpture-like Yu Yu instantly fell to the ground from the shattered ice pillar.
Several carriages continued on their way, with arguments occasionally coming from inside.
"Who told me to leave here? I need to find my father..."
Yan Ying looked at the little girl who had woken up and said softly, "Little sister, you can't go now."
Yu Chuchu looked at the four or five women older than her in the carriage and felt strange. How did she end up here? Where did the man who took her away go?
The carriage curtain was lifted, and Xue Tianjun, dressed in a black brocade robe, bent down and stepped inside.
"Husband, she keeps insisting on going to find her father," Yao Shulan said sweetly upon seeing Xue Tianjun.
Yu Chuchu looked at Xue Tianjun with some hatred and said coldly, "Why did you take me away? Where is my father?"
Xue Tianjun sat down beside her, his face grim. He took out the letter Yu Yu had given him from his sleeve and said regretfully, "Your father, Yu Yu, has been killed by the Divine Arrest Bureau."
"What?!" Yu Chuchu was shocked, and tears immediately welled up in her eyes.
As she got up to get out of the carriage, Xue Tianjun suddenly reached out and touched her. Unable to move, Yu Chuchu looked at Xue Tianjun with eyes full of sorrow and resentment.
At this moment, Xue Tianjun opened the letter in his hand and said, "Chuchu, your father entrusted you to me. Actually, he brought you to the capital this time to find his relatives."
Although Yu Chuchu could not move, she could speak. She had been with Yu Yu since she was a child, and she had no relatives in the capital.
"You're lying to me."
"Well, why would I lie to you? Look for yourself." Xue Tianjun unfolded the letter in front of Yu Chuchu.
Yu Chuchu's eyes swept over the letter, and Xue Tianjun couldn't help but chuckle inwardly. So Yu Chuchu couldn't read.
Sure enough, Yu Chuchu said sweetly, "You're lying to me! My father won't die! This letter is a forgery! What nonsense is all this scribbling on it? You're just trying to fool me!"
"Little girl, my husband isn't a bad person. How could he lie to you?" Yan Ying was somewhat annoyed. If Yu Chuchu hadn't been brought back by Xue Tianjun, she would have definitely slapped her twice.
Xue Tianjun shook his head, handed the letter to Yan Ying, and smiled, "Read it aloud."
Yan Ying nodded and immediately read the contents of the letter aloud.
Listening to her reading, Yu Chuchu's eyes were filled with disbelief. Yu Yu wasn't her father; she was the child of a wealthy family in the capital, the Sima family of the capital. How could this be?
"I have no reason to lie to you. Your mother's name is Sima Yujiao. Because your biological father was assassinated by another family in the capital, Yu Yu, who was on good terms with your father, killed the family that harmed your father in a fit of rage. That's why this happened today." Xue Tianjun had already read the contents of the letter.
This Yu Chuchu wasn't Yu Yu's daughter, but the youngest daughter of the Sima family in the capital. To escape the revenge killing, Yu Yu had taken her away, and now he just wanted to return her to the Sima family.
"Is this true? Is this true?" Yu Chuchu's eyes were filled with tears. To have to endure such emotional turmoil at such a young age was indeed a great blow to her.
Seeing her pained expression, Xue Tianjun reached out and patted her neck. Yu Chuchu swayed and fell into his arms.
"Husband, what exactly happened?" Yan Ying asked in confusion.
Like her, the other women were also extremely puzzled, clearly indicating that Xue Tianjun seemed to know a lot about this matter.
However, Xue Tianjun didn't offer any explanation, but a domineering, wicked smile appeared on his face as he thought of the beauties within the imperial city.
The towering and magnificent imperial city, with its colossal buildings reaching ten meters in height, indicated that there were more than a dozen such structures within its walls. After passing through the city gates, Xue Tianjun and his entourage were finally allowed to enter.
"Husband, this is the imperial city! It's so lively, much more lively than Wushuang City!" Yan Ying laughed, looking at the bustling scene around her.
Although silver snow was falling, it did nothing to dampen the enthusiasm of the strollers, and vendors were also setting up stalls under the eaves, hawking their wares.
Xue Tianjun nodded. He had once thought that the imperial city was just another palace for an emperor, but this imperial city in the Fengyun Realm was even more magnificent than his own Blissful Realm.
However, these high-ranking mansions, while beautiful to look at, weren't actually very practical.
Just as the group had walked down a street, Shangguan Yan's sweet voice came from the carriage: "Husband, Miss Chuchu has woken up."
The carriage stopped, and Xue Tianjun turned back and climbed out. Seeing Yu Chuchu sitting up with red eyes, he couldn't help but show concern, saying, "Chuchu, you're awake."
"Is everything you said true? Is everything in the letter true?" Yu Chuchu's eyes flickered as she stared at Xue Tianjun, questioning him.
Xue Tianjun said earnestly, "Why would I lie to you for no reason? I can't be sure about this either, but as long as we find the Sima family, we can ask."
Hearing his words, Yu Chuchu fell silent. If all of this was true, she wasn't Yu Yu's daughter after all; he was just her savior.
Looking at the expression on her face, Xue Tianjun said softly, "Chuchu, get down and walk around. You must have been very uncomfortable sitting in the carriage all the way."
"Mm..." Yu Chuchu didn't refuse his kindness.
Although Yu Chuchu was only seventeen or eighteen years old and looked like a naive little girl, she had matured considerably after years of wandering the martial world with Yu Yu.
She knew how kind this handsome yet slightly wicked man had been to her along the way, and besides, there were so many women and girls her age here calling him "husband." Yu Chuchu had no reason to see him as a bad person.
Stepping down from the carriage and walking side-by-side with Xue Tianjun, her feet crunching on the soft snow, Yu Chuchu sighed deeply. Perhaps due to the many things she had experienced, the little girl's face showed a deep sense of vicissitude.
"Since ancient times, who has not died? Let my loyal heart shine in history. Whether Yu Yu is your biological father or not, I admire him. He is a true man," Xue Tianjun sighed, looking up.
When Yu Chuchu was reminded of such a painful event, she choked up and said, "My father was always a good man. He never did anything bad. These divine constables are all villains. I want to avenge my father."
Wu Huanniang and the others had already walked a long way forward, fully aware of the situation. Suddenly, Xue Tianjun grabbed Yu Chuchu's hand, turned to look into her eyes, and said firmly, "Little Chuchu, you can't do this kind of revenge."
"Even if I die, I will kill a few of them," Yu Chuchu pouted and shouted.
Xue Tianjun shook his head and said softly, "I won't watch you go to your death. I'll take care of everything. If you want to wipe out everyone in this imperial city, I can help you. Just say the word, and I can kill everyone in the Divine Arrest Bureau."
Yu Chuchu stopped and stared blankly at Xue Tianjun. Why was he making such outrageous statements? Why was he treating her like this? Yu Chuchu couldn't understand what connection she had with this Xue Tianjun.
"Don't ask me for reasons. All of this is for you. When Brother Yu was dying, he told me to take good care of you, to take care of you for the rest of my life. Even if you find your family, Brother Yu wouldn't feel at ease with you. He wanted me to marry you, but of course I won't do that. You are my little sister, how can I marry you?" Xue Tianjun seemed to be talking to himself.
But these words were a shock to Chuchu. A man wanted to take care of her for the rest of her life? What kind of nonsense was this? She didn't doubt that Yu Yu would say such a thing, because Yu Yu had long hoped to find her a good husband.
Thinking of Yu Yu, Yu Chuchu's tears welled up again. Xue Tianjun quickly wiped away her tears, leaned forward to look into her beautiful eyes, and said softly, "Everything is over now. If you keep crying like this, it will only make Brother Yu suffer down there. And there are so many people on the street. If you cry like this, people will think I did something to you."
Yu Chuchu blushed and said sweetly, "I won't cry. I will be strong. I won't let my father worry about me."
"That's right. Let's go. Let's find the Sima family first." Xue Tianjun held her hand tightly and wouldn't let go. Yu Chuchu, whose hand was being held, could only let him hold hers.
Although this feeling made Yu Chuchu feel a little uncomfortable, a sense of security also made her feel much better. Looking at the back of that tall, handsome man with long hair, Yu Chuchu vaguely remembered someone who often appeared in her dreams. That person held her hand and led her to explore the world, but that person had never shown her his face.
After walking through two streets and asking no fewer than ten passersby, Yu Chuchu's face showed disappointment.
"Husband, could it be that the Sima family you mentioned has already left the capital, or are those passersby lying to us?" Yao Shulan said angrily.
Xue Tianjun shook his head and said, "The Sima family shouldn't have left the capital."
Everyone looked at Xue Tianjun with suspicion.
Xue Tianjun explained, "If I'm not mistaken, the Sima family is now just like an ordinary family. If what the letter says is true, Chuchu's family was a prominent family in the capital. There were some events that caused the Sima family to decline. Those passersby must know about the Sima family, which is why they acted that way. Didn't you see? Every time we asked a passerby, as soon as we mentioned the Sima family, they didn't even want to answer."
Hearing this, the women all nodded. Indeed, as Xue Tianjun said, the passersby they encountered immediately tried to run away as soon as they heard that they were looking for the Sima family.
Clearly, the Sima family was a taboo in the capital, otherwise the passersby wouldn't have reacted this way.
Yu Chuchu asked worriedly, "Brother Tianjun, if they really are my relatives, will they be in danger?"
"No, don't worry. Since Yu Yu brought you here to find them, he naturally won't risk coming up empty-handed," Xue Tianjun said confidently.
Yan Ying frowned and said, "Husband, are we going to ask house to house?"
Xue Tianjun gave a strange smile and said, "Asking for directions earlier was far too polite."
Hearing him say this, the women were puzzled again. Did they have to argue with people to ask for directions? How could they possibly get directions that way?
Looking at their expressions, Xue Tianjun took a few steps forward alone. Two burly men were passing by ahead. Seeing them, Xue Tianjun greeted them with a beaming smile.
The two men, thinking he had unintentionally taken the wrong route, immediately tried to move aside, but Xue Tianjun stretched out his arms.
"Hey, what's wrong with you? Why are you blocking our way?" one of the burly men, a head taller than Xue Tianjun, said coldly.
Xue Tianjun chuckled softly, "I wanted to ask you two brothers about someone."
The two men's expressions immediately softened upon hearing this. One of them laughed, "Alright, go ahead. We've been in this imperial city for decades. Besides those in the palace, we know quite a few people outside."
"That's good. The person I'm asking about is Sima Yujiao," Xue Tianjun said directly.
Upon hearing the name Sima Yujiao, the two burly men's expressions changed, and they both waved their hands, saying, "We're sorry, we don't know her. We've never heard of her."
Xue Tianjun raised an eyebrow and said, "Oh, didn't you just say you knew a lot of people? How come you say you don't know Sima Yujiao? Let me remind you, the Sima family is a prominent family in the imperial city."
"No matter what you say, we've never heard of the Sima family. Go ask someone else," the first burly man said, waving his hand and pulling his companion away.
As the two men passed by Xue Tianjun, suddenly their feet left the ground. Startled, they couldn't turn around, for their necks were being gripped and they were being lifted up.
"You...who are you? What are you doing?" the men cried out.
Although they were ordinary people, the strength to be lifted so easily was extraordinary.
Xue Tianjun gripped their necks with both hands and said coldly, "I just want to know where the Sima family is. Tell me, and you can leave. Don't tell me, and you'll die." He
deliberately drew out the word "die. "
These words made the two men tremble. They realized that the man asking for directions was a martial arts expert.
"The common people don't fight with officials, and ordinary people certainly don't fight with martial arts masters." The two burly men were terrified. One of them shouted, "Put us down first, then we'll tell you."
With two thuds, the two burly men collapsed to the ground. Xue Tianjun turned to face them, looked down at them, and said expressionlessly, "If you dare to lie to me, I will make you wish you were dead."
Just seeing the coldness on Xue Tianjun's face made the two burly men tremble with fear. After they stood up and looked around, one of the burly men lowered his voice and said, "Hero, it's not that we don't want to tell you, it's just that no ordinary person in the capital dares to mention the Sima family. Even if we say the name Sima, if the patrolling soldiers hear us, we brothers will lose our lives."
"I just want to know where the Sima family is." Xue Tianjun didn't want to listen to his nonsense. Of course, he had also seen a clue from Yu Yu's letter. The Sima family had a feud with the people of the capital, and they must be in big trouble.
The burly man looked around again and whispered, "The Sima family is located outside the north wall of the imperial city, but the Iron Blade Battalion guards it. As far as I know, all the men there were killed years ago, leaving only the women."
Xue Tianjun narrowed his eyes and asked, "Only the women remain, guarding the Iron Blade Battalion? What's that about?"
The burly man, fearing trouble, quickly replied, "I heard the Sima family offended a minister in the palace, Wei Ming. He's the emperor's brother-in-law, so the Sima family suffered a terrible fate; they're lucky they weren't wiped
out." "Oh, I see. Okay, you can leave now," Xue Tianjun nodded.
The two burly men exchanged a glance and immediately took a few steps forward.
At this moment, Xue Tianjun's voice rang out again.
"Remember our conversation today. I don't want anyone else to know, or this will be the consequence..."
A loud bang startled the two burly men, who turned around in fright. When they saw that the stone lion outside some house had been reduced to dust, they simultaneously knelt on the ground.
"Have mercy, sir!"
After they kowtowed several times, when they looked up again, the man had vanished without a trace.
"Third brother, you're dead. That man must be friends with the Sima family. If he goes to rescue a woman from the Sima family and gets caught, he'll implicate you, and you're finished."
"Second brother, don't scare me. He doesn't know us. Sigh, looks like we can't stay in this capital city anymore."
