Chapter 5412: Duanmu Yu’s groom

Translator: 549690339

There could only be two explanations for these people to appear in this place. They had either gotten the news from Ling Tianyou or his master, or they had gotten the news from other sources.

By normal judgment, the latter was much more likely. However, in this case, it was worth pondering what kind of channel was behind this.

After all, this place was too well-hidden, and even the official manager of the snake Island, Marquis Yu, might not know about it. It was fine if Ling Tianyou and his master accidentally came in, but if such a coincidence happened to two different people at the same time, it would make people shudder.

With Lin Yi’s personality, he’d have to find a way to get to the bottom of it if he thought there was something going on. He stayed where he was and watched. At this distance, he could clearly sense the movements of the people in front of him, but the other party couldn’t sense him, unless they were also at the xuansheng stage.

There were a total of four people. Their strength was not outstanding among the cultivators who came to the snake Island for the trial, but they were not too weak either. One was in the early jiedan stage, one was in the complete foundation Stage, and two were in the peak of the late Foundation Stage.

This kind of strength allocation was more than enough for the other ordinary trials in the immemorial small Jianghu. However, on this Snake Island, it could only be considered as passable, rather passable.

Even Ling Tianyou and his master were treading on thin ice here, let alone the people in front of them. If they were to encounter a ferocious spirit beast like the armored bone snake, this group of people would definitely be completely annihilated, and it would be difficult for them to escape even if they wanted to.

But what surprised Lin Yi was that these four people didn’t seem to be in the same group-they should’ve been in the same group, but they were having an internal conflict.

The four of them were divided into two groups. Early jiedan stage and two peak late Foundation Stage cultivators were in one group, and the remaining perfected Foundation Stage cultivators were in another group. At this moment, the two sides were confronting each other, swords drawn.

“Chu Tianlu, you didn’t expect this day to come, did you?” One of the peak late Foundation Stage Masters took the lead and sneered. It seemed that he was the core of the three-man Group. Even the early jiedan stage master was standing behind him with his hands clasped behind his back, just like an attendant.

“Why?” The young man named Chu Tianlu was both shocked and furious. Obviously, he had not expected things to turn out this way all of a sudden. In his opinion, the three people in front of him were not irreconcilable enemies at all. Even if they did not get along with each other occasionally, it was far from reaching the point where they would fight to the death. After all, these three people were from the same clan and clan!

Especially Chu tianliang, who was standing in front of him. They were very close by blood and were real cousins. In terms of status, they were both the direct grandchildren of the Chu clan’s master. They had played together since they were young and had a good relationship in the past. It was only in recent years that their relationship had become more distant. How did they end up in such a state?

“Why?” Chu tianliang laughed when he heard that. He said awkwardly,”My dear cousin, do you really not know why? I remember that you were always very smart when you were young. Every time Grandpa inspected us, you were always the one who received praise. Now that you’re in this situation, you can still ask such an idiotic question. Where did your smart brain go?”

Chu Tianlu was silent for a moment before he slowly said,””For the spiritual awareness fruit?”

As the saying goes, men die for wealth while birds die for food. Killing and snatching treasures had always been a norm in the cultivation world, especially in the face of such a rare treasure like the spiritual fruit that was almost legendary. Even if Blood Brothers turned against each other, it would be a very normal thing, not to mention that he and Chu tianliang were not Blood Brothers, they were merely cousins separated by a layer of blood.

“Speaking of this, we still have to thank you. If it wasn’t for your sudden idea to jump down, we wouldn’t have found this good place, let alone find the spiritual awareness fruit.” The three smiled at each other-the cave was so well hidden that even Lin Yi wouldn’t be able to find it with his spirit sense, let alone them.

Lin Yi’s heart skipped a beat as he turned his attention to Chu Tianlu. Was it a sudden thought …?

If it was like the last time when Ling Tianyou and the others were chased by the armored bone snake to the point that they had no way out, it would still be fine. But which normal person would suddenly have the idea of jumping into the sea? What the hell is this Chu Tianlu?

“But we haven’t even found the shadow of the spirit sense fruit yet, isn’t it too early to fall out with me?” Chu Tianlu retorted. He was not a fool. If Chu tianliang had really found the spiritual fruit, he would definitely be on guard against him. However, Chu tianliang’s impatience to make a move on him at this time was beyond his expectations.

“Hehe, my dear cousin, you’re really naïve to be able to ask such a question. Is there really nothing wrong with your brain?” Chu tianliang continued to mock, his face full of superiority as he sneered,””If I find a spiritual fruit, then of course I’ll fall out with you, but even if I don’t have a spiritual fruit, isn’t our relationship already doomed to be irreconcilable?”

“I don’t understand,” Chu Tianlu shook his head calmly and asked himself honestly. He had always treated his cousin Chu tianliang rather well since he was young. Even if he had become a little cold and distant in the past two years due to their different views, it was far from being considered an enmity. So why were they irreconcilable?

“Hmph, you’re really slow. Fine, since you took care of me when I was young, I’ll be merciful and let you die with a clear understanding. I’ll give you a hint, Duanmu Yu of the leaf spirit sect.” Chu tianliang snorted coldly.

Duanmu Yu? Lin Yi couldn’t help but be surprised at the name. He thought that this was just a common killing of each other-for treasures like the spiritual fruit, there would be countless killings every day, no matter if it was on Sky Class Island or in the ancient martial world. He didn’t think that Duanmu Yu would be involved!

“What do you mean?” Chu Tianlu still seemed to be confused.

“Ha, do you really not know or are you just pretending not to know? our Chu family will soon be connected by marriage with the leaf spirit sect! That nascent Soul Stage old monster of leaf spirit sect is seriously injured, and everyone knows that he can’t hold on for long. Grandpa just happened to be a new nascent Soul Stage old monster, and our Chu family’s power is far from comparable to these traditional sects. If we can’t find someone to rely on as soon as possible, Grandpa, a new nascent Soul Stage old monster, not only won’t be able to lead the Chu family to a meteoric rise, he might even bring about a disaster. After all, our Chu family has many enemies, and they definitely won’t sit back and watch the Chu family rise. Moreover, leaf spirit sect is in urgent need of a new nascent soul old monster. In addition, we have always had a good relationship. Since the couple is interested, marriage is a must!” Chu tianliang explained.

These things were no secret, and Chu Tianlu naturally knew about them. However, he still asked,””So what?”
