In the Ma family's small world, an unfamiliar voice suddenly appeared from the rafters of the main hall.
Lao Yang, Xiao Hei, and Wei Du, three peerless experts, instantly appeared before everyone.
Old Madam Ma, seated in the main hall, also had a flash of brilliance in her eyes as she stood up.
Everyone's gaze turned towards the source of the voice.
No one knew when this person had arrived.
Light flickered at Wei Du's fingertips.
Once the identity of the other party was confirmed, if it were an enemy, he would strike with all his might for a swift kill.
"Don't move, it's Brother Xinghe!" Aunt Ma, though half a beat slower in her reaction, was the first to speak.
Upon hearing this, the crowd slowly took a step back.
They felt no hostility from this person.
Since it was someone they knew, and judging by the address, a familiar acquaintance.
That person also leaped down lightly from the rafters.
"Xinghe, you still love squatting on the rafters so much. Didn't you have enough fun when you were little? Is your backside itching again?"
Old Madam Ma also confirmed the identity of the arrival and slowly sat back in her chair.
The latter smiled awkwardly and touched his nose.
His demeanor bore a slight resemblance to Chu Tian.
Luoluo stared blankly for a moment.
The person was none other than Chu Xinghe!
Luoluo had also seen him in the Luo family's small world.
At that time, he seemed to have some mental issues, was extremely arrogant, filled with a thirst for blood, and could be described as half-corpse, half-ghost.
However, the aura on him now lacked that corpse-ghost energy.
He looked like an ordinary person, his aura even bearing a slight resemblance to Wei Du.
Just as he floated down to the ground and before he could speak.
*Zi zi zi...*
Suddenly, several whistling sounds of air being broken pierced everyone's ears.
"Hmm?" Chu Xinghe let out a questioning sound from his nose.
*Ding ding ding ding...*
A series of crisp sounds emanated from his body.
Only then did everyone see that eleven golden needles were embedded in his collar.
"Grandpa..."
"Master Huang..."
Everyone cast their gaze towards the direction of the attack.
Master Huang still maintained his posture of having thrown the needles.
"It was you... who killed my daughter and son-in-law! I want you to pay with your life..."
Master Huang's face was contorted, revealing intense hatred.
"So many years have passed, and you can still only use eleven needles. Compared to Sister Huang Mei, your aptitude is far too poor!"
Chu Xinghe was unfazed by Master Huang's hatred and calmly uttered these words.
"You..."
"Sister Huang Mei and her husband did indeed die because of me. I am standing here, letting you kill me, if you can!"
Master Huang was so enraged by Chu Xinghe's words that his beard puffed out.
As soon as he uttered the word "you," Chu Xinghe walked up to him and stood there, as if truly waiting to be at his mercy.
"Fine, you said it yourself..."
Master Huang's hand twitched.
A sharp surgical scalpel appeared at his fingertips.
*Swish...*
A cold glint swept across Chu Xinghe's neck.
*Zi la...*
A piercing sound, like steel rubbing against steel,
rang out, heard by everyone as their expressions grew tense.
"Old man, you... are courting death!"
It was Xiao Hei who roared and rushed in front of Chu Xinghe.
Everyone's gaze was fixed on Chu Xinghe's throat!
There was only a shallow white mark there.
Then, looking at the surgical scalpel in Master Huang's hand,
it had already become blunted.
Then, looking at Chu Xinghe's hand, he was holding a blue ball of light flickering with electricity.
Its trajectory was clearly aimed at Master Huang.
Everyone knew that this blue lightning ball was naturally emitted by Xiao Hei.
"Damn, what is going on? This is a bit messy... Xiao Hei, hurry back, what are you getting involved in!"
Miao Zuo stepped forward and reached out to pull Xiao Hei.
Xiao Hei ignored him.
His eyes flashed with killing intent, staring at Master Huang.
"Try touching my grandfather again!"
Lin Yu suddenly interjected, standing between Master Huang and Xiao Hei.
This turned into quite a lively scene.
Everyone exchanged glances.
What was all this about?
But they were all very curious about Xiao Hei's sudden outburst.
Seeing Lin Yu blocking the way, Xiao Hei's eyes flickered.
He knew that Lin Yu's relationship with Chu Tian was not shallow.
Moreover, it seemed that Ma Deju had a fondness for this girl.
"Chu Mo?"
Just as the atmosphere became awkward and stagnant,
Chu Xinghe, standing behind Xiao Hei, had a look of disbelief, even surprise, in his eyes.
In front of him, Xiao Hei, with his back turned, called out doubtfully.
Xiao Hei, his eyes flickering, suddenly heard these two words.
His body stiffened, and he slowly turned around.
"It's... it's me..."
As Xiao Hei uttered these words, his eyes suddenly welled up with tears, and he was extremely emotional.
"So they really know each other!" This was the thought that flashed through everyone's minds.
However, they became even more perplexed.
Everyone knew that Xiao Hei had been brought over from another world by Chu Tian.
Moreover, those familiar with him did not know that he also had a name called Chu Mo!
He was originally Mo Qilin, and it was not wrong for him to take Mo as his name.
But why was his surname... Chu?
"It really is you! How did you get here too? Did Father bring you? Where is my father now?" Chu Xinghe confirmed Xiao Hei's identity.
He grabbed his shoulder, appearing exceptionally excited.
The words tumbled out of his mouth.
"Uh..." Xiao Hei felt a bit awkward hearing him mention "Father" repeatedly.
The one who brought him here was not Chu Xinghe's father.
"Well... after you left, I only stayed with Master Batian for three years. Then he suddenly disappeared, and I returned to my clan!"
Xiao Hei recounted a past experience.
Apart from Chu Xinghe, everyone else could not understand what he was saying.
However, the name Batian, when heard by the Ma family, told them who it was.
Chu Batian was precisely Chu Xinghe's father.
He once controlled the eight great families alone, and was also the ninth family outside the eight great families, but their Chu family line was single-lineage.
Therefore, they had never publicly claimed to be a family.
The world only knew of the eight great families, and not the Chu family.
After he said this, everyone could almost understand that Chu Xinghe, Chu Batian, and the other person he mentioned had all traveled to the world of the Sea of Death.
"Then how did you get here?" Chu Xinghe was also stunned after hearing this.
"If I'm not mistaken, it should be your son who brought us here!"
Xiao Hei looked around at everyone, indicating that they all came from the same place as him.
"My son?"
Chu Xinghe's eyes instantly widened.
Madam Ma and Aunt Ma also exchanged glances.
"Could Chu Tian really be..." Both of them saw the meaning in each other's eyes.
Old Madam Ma slowly shook her head and spoke.
"You might be mistaken! I sparred with Chu Tian before, and he doesn't have the bloodline power of the Chu family at all..."
"Chu Tian? You say his name is Chu Tian?"
Chu Xinghe seemed not to hear Old Madam Ma's words and directly interrupted her.
He once again cast his gaze towards Xiao Hei, while also scanning the surroundings.
Everyone nodded, and finally, Xiao Hei nodded and said.
"Yes, it's just the single character Tian! I remember it very clearly... When Sister Jiu'er was pregnant, Master Batian had already given him a name.
A single character, Tian. At the time, you and Sister Jiu'er thought it was the same as Master Batian's name and wanted to change it!
But Master said, although his name, Batian, sounds domineering, it is still covered by 'Tian' in the end.
Your name is Xinghe, but you don't know that Xinghe is also merely a tiny speck of dust in the vast universe!
His grandson, named Tian, is... the meaning of light, the meaning of nature, the meaning of purity, the meaning of freedom, the meaning of supreme victory, the meaning of the Heavenly Way!"
As Xiao Hei spoke these words, his eyes held a hint of recollection.
Everyone was also deeply shaken by these words.
Although they didn't know if this Chu Batian was Chu Tian's grandfather.
But this person was definitely a peerless hero.
"Can you guys stop chatting for a moment? Someone is about to die here!"
Suddenly, the voice of Little Dragon Girl was heard.
