rain.

The entire Chu County was rainy and dark, as depressed as Zhang Xingtian's mood at this moment.

Although there are many children of the Zhang family, there are absolutely very few outstanding people like Zhang Yin. For Zhang Xingtian, such juniors are far from comparable to those of a few dandy. What's worse is that this feeling of being completely out of control made him feel a little uneasy. If he doesn't die from killing a snake, he will be backfired. The Wei family is even more terrifying than a snake.

"Honor, our people have blocked Chu County. No matter who that person is, he will never let him escape." He strided into the study, and the old butler spoke softly, with a strong murderous intent in his plain tone.

"What's the reaction of the Wei family?" Zhang Xingtian asked in a deep voice with his brow raised.

"The guards and servants of the Wei family were all killed, only Wei Wu fled back. The eldest lady of the Wei family was held hostage by the other party. The Wei family also sent a large number of people to chase and block. There is no more news yet." After pausing, the old housekeeper continued, "I suspect that this may be the conspiracy of the Wei family. How could a servant hostage the eldest lady of the Wei family?"

"At any cost, be sure to bring me back." Holding up the teacup, Zhang Xingtian ordered lightly, "Whether alive or dead."

………………………….

The carriage was very bumpy, and Wei Yuan frowned slightly, but his eyes finally fell on Jiang Chu.

The fair hands were as slender as women, but they were as calm as a mountain. Even on this bumpy carriage, the hands holding the knife were not messy at all. The lifelike bamboo sculptures gradually took shape, but Jiang Chu's eyes were still as calm as water.

"Are you not worried at all?" Wei Yuan finally spoke out and broke the peace.

"Worried, is it useful?" Without looking up, Jiang Chu still carved the bamboo in his hand, as if Wei Yuan had asked a very idiotic question.

After a slight stagnation, Wei Yuan smiled bitterly unconsciously. This principle was very simple, but she didn't really want to ask this. She just wanted to break the depressing atmosphere. Of course, in fact, she was the only one who felt depressed.

The excuse was taken hostage, and in order to pursue authenticity, even the Wei family did not know the truth. Now, the people of the Wei and Zhang families are bound to pursue them with all their might. Even if Wei Wu intends to lead the wrong direction, the road to escape is also murderous intent.

No matter how firm and decisive he is on the surface, he will never be able to resolve his inner tension, and some traces will appear unnaturally. However, the guy in front of him seems to have no such emotion at all. This made Wei Yuan a little frustrated, and he became more and more curious about what his identity is?

"Why keep carving bamboo?" After thinking about it, Wei Yuan changed his question. If he was an ordinary servant, it was understandable to like bamboo carving, and it was always a skill, but Jiang Chu obviously didn't need this.

"Compared with this, you should probably be more concerned about how long it will take to leave Chu County." After completing the last knife, Jiang Chu put down the unfinished bamboo carving, grabbed the bamboo sword beside him, and got up and jumped out of the carriage lightly.

There was a sound of horse hooves and a strong and murderous aura in the wind and rain.

Wei Yuan did not lift the curtain, although she also wanted to see Jiang Chu take action.

When his eyes fell on the unfinished bamboo sculpture, Wei Yuan finally reached out and picked it up. Although it had not been completed, it could be seen that it was a sword-holder. The most important thing was that the moment he held it in his hand, Wei Yuan even felt a faint sword intent.

Jiang Chu went out quickly and came back quickly. He calmly returned to the carriage in just five minutes. During this period, the carriage did not even slow down its speed.

The coarse blue cloth was wet with the rain and pressed against Jiang Chu's body tightly. A faint blood color could be seen on the bamboo sword. Even the rain would be difficult to completely wash away the blood stains on it. Putting the bamboo sword beside him, Jiang Chu looked at the bamboo carving in Wei Yuan's hand, "If you like, I can give it to you, but it has not been completed yet."

"Continue to go north, it's Lingjiang. Before dark, we should be able to reach the riverside. The ship is ready to cross the Lingjiang River, it's Jingzhou." Without the intention of returning the bamboo carving to Jiang Chu, Wei Yuan looked at Jiang Chu's eyes and answered seriously.

Jiang Chu still had no intention of answering, and his eyes were still on the bamboo carvings in Wei Yuan's hands, which made Wei Yuan very angry. He was the eldest lady of the Wei family. Isn't there any bamboo carving that is attractive yet?

"Are you not curious at all, why should I go to Jingzhou?" In Zhulin, Wei Yuan simply said that he asked Jiang Chu to pretend to hold her away from Chu County, and prepared many explanations in his mind. However, Jiang Chu didn't ask a single word. Even now, he still had no intention of asking.

"I don't need to think so much, I'm only responsible for taking you away." After a moment of silence, Jiang Chu replied lightly.

"Are you blamed me for killing those people to silence?" Wei Yuan suddenly asked. She could feel that Jiang Chu's attitude towards her had changed, and this change began with her ordering to silence all the others in the bamboo forest.

Jiang Chu still didn't answer, of course, this might be an answer.

"I am not alone. Behind me is the entire Wei family. I must be responsible for the entire Wei family! They may be very loyal, but they may not be able to support the Zhang family's forced confession. Only dead people will not reveal any secrets." Wei Yuan didn't know why he wanted to explain, but these words were pressed into his heart like a big stone, which made her breathless.

"If you can't stand it, then you can leave now. What you owe me has paid off." He threw the bamboo eagle at Jiang Chu with force, and Wei Yuan's eyes were slightly red and tears fell silently.

Subconsciously catching the bamboo sculpture, Jiang Chu was silent for a long time, and finally sighed and put the bamboo sculpture down.

"Miss, will it be safe to arrive in Jingzhou?"

"It can't be said to be certain, but at least there will be a chance to turn the situation around and get a glimmer of life for the Wei family." After pausing, Wei Yuan continued softly, "In half a month, the Star Palace will open the Star inheritance."

With his eyebrows raised, Jiang Chu finally fell silent.

"Do you understand star power? My Wei family has the skills to practice star power, and I can pass it on to you in return." After hesitating for a moment, Wei Yuan still asked, "Of course, if possible, I hope you can pass your sword technique to my Wei family."

"No need, I can't condense the star power for the time being." Jiang Chu's face was very calm, as if this was an insignificant little thing.

Can't condense star power?

This simple sentence fell into Wei Yuan's ears, but it was definitely like falling thunder.

If Wei Yuan had great confidence in Jiang Chu before, then that sentence immediately shattered Wei Yuan's fantasy. In this world, only star power is the master who determines everything, and cannot condense star power. Even if there is a superb sword technique, it is just a castle in the air. It is difficult for Wei Yuan to imagine how Jiang Chu could answer so calmly, and naturally he could not notice the two temporary words in Jiang Chu's mouth.

Wei Yuan didn't say anything, but Jiang Chu could easily read her meaning from Wei Yuan's eyes.

Shaking his head slightly, picking up the bamboo carving again, Jiang Chu said softly, "My sword, no one can learn it."

...............

"Lingjiang!"

Holding the whip with one hand, Zhang Ye's eyes showed a strong sense of confidence, "No matter who he is, the destination of taking Miss Wei's family away, it can only be Jingzhou! We are waiting for him in Lingjiang."

The eldest lady of the Wei family is not just a woman. The reason why she acquiesced to Zhang Yin's forced marriage is that Wei Yuan may be the only chance for the Wei family to turn over. Nothing else, although Wei Yuan is not very strong now, his talent in star power is excellent. However, half a month later, the star inheritance will be carried out in Jingzhou. If he can pass the star inheritance, he may enter the star realm and even be attracted by the Star Palace.

Before entering the Ningxing Realm, although the star power can improve physical fitness and temper the body, it is not very obvious for the improvement of strength. However, once you enter the Ningxing Realm and the star power is released, it will definitely be a total change. A strong man in the Ningxing Realm is even enough to support a family.

More importantly, once you are attracted by the Star Palace, even if you give the Zhang family ten courage, you will never dare to deal with Wei Yuan.

Unfortunately, the plan was completely disrupted because of this servant who jumped out for no reason. Even Zhang Yin, a direct descendant of the Zhang family who had a great hope of accepting the inheritance of the Star, died.

Zhang Ye didn't believe that the servant's appearance was just an accident, and even suspected that this was the backup plan left by the ancestor of the Wei family before his death.

Of course, even so, it would have no meaning. In any case, he could not tolerate Wei Yuan's escape into Jingzhou, and he would have no choice but to go to war with the Wei family immediately.

…………………

Sitting quietly in the hall, Wei Yongxin tapped the table gently with his fingers.

"Wei Wu, tell me the truth, what's going on?"

The people from the Wei family have already chased them out, but Wei Yongxin did not let the family masters participate. In the final analysis, he still doubted the authenticity of this incident.

"Uncle Second." Wei Wu shook his head and said, "I don't know why that servant was hiding so deeply, and even Zhang Yin was no match for him at all."

"You know, I'm not asking these." Wei Yongxin said in a deep voice, "Actually, these are not important at this time. Even if Yuan'er is really hostage, it's better than falling into the hands of the Zhang family. I ask you, just make a clearer judgment, you should understand."

After the death of the Wei family ancestor, Wei Yongxin, the second master of the Wei family, had almost unshakable status in the Wei family. Faced with Wei Yongxin's questioning, Wei Wu finally surrendered.

"It is true that the little boy killed Zhang Yin, but it was Yuanmei who begged him to take him away from Chu County." After gritting his teeth, Wei Wu continued, "Second uncle, when he reached this point, he could not admit the relationship between the servant and my Wei family, otherwise he would have caused a huge disaster for my Wei family. Everyone present at that time was silenced by me. No matter whether they could leave Chu County, they would not be involved in my Wei family."
