This scene was witnessed by Chu Tian, who was feigning unconsciousness.
His hands behind his back slowly relaxed.
The one who arrived was Old Yang, who had gone out on patrol.
“Clan Leader, what does this mean?”
His expression was grim as he pointed at Chu Tian, who lay on the ground.
Tu Gang was taken aback by Old Yang’s appearance.
He was slightly puzzled by his presence there; hadn’t he just gone out on patrol?
But when he saw Dian Dian peeking around the doorway, he understood.
“Heh heh, Captain Yang, I was about to ask you what you meant.”
Old Yang hadn’t expected the other party to turn the tables on him.
However, Tu Gang continued, “This outsider has spatial items. I presume Captain Yang has known this for a long time?”
Upon hearing this, Old Yang’s face changed, and he looked at Chu Tian, who lay poisoned on the ground.
He nodded helplessly.
Seeing his admission, Tu Gang’s voice grew even more stern, “Yang Kai, I saved you in the desert five years ago. Is this how you repay me, how you repay the Tu clan?”
“Do you know what a spatial item means to the Tu clan?”
Old Yang opened his mouth but couldn’t speak.
Tu Gang continued, “It is the future of the Tu clan, it can allow us to not live under the mercy of others.”
“You also know that in this Sea of Death, hunting food is not difficult, but how to preserve it…”
“With spatial items, we can eat fresh food at all times!”
“Yang Kai, you knew and didn’t report it. Can you face the kindness of the Tu clan for taking you in?”
Old Yang was rendered speechless by Tu Gang’s words.
Seeing his demeanor, Clan Leader Tu Gang changed his tone and said to Old Yang, “I won’t pursue past matters.”
“You may leave… Er Gouzi, do it!”
“No… you…” Old Yang, who was about to step forward to stop them, suddenly froze.
Er Gouzi, who was once again preparing to undo his belt, was now being held by the throat and lifted up.
“What a fine example of emotional blackmail!”
“You saved him… so he has to be loyal to you, right?”
“To give you time to escape, I took down over four hundred Death Scorpions by myself. Do you owe me a lick of my toes then?”
Chu Tian said with a cold smile, his grip tightening, and stared at the flustered Tu Gang.
“Ghk… ghk…” Er Gouzi let out stifling struggles.
Old Yang stepped forward, placing himself between Chu Tian and Tu Gang, and said to him.
“Brother Chu, as the clan leader, he isn’t wrong in what he’s doing.”
“It is the Tu clan who wronged you. You should leave and give them a chance to live.”
[Ding… System Prompt: Main quest triggered [Trial of the Blood King - The Treachery of Men 2 - Kill or Not to Kill], choose within three seconds.]
Suddenly, a system prompt appeared. Chu Tian responded with his actions.
Crack…
“No! Yang Kai, I order you to apprehend him.”
Two voices spoke simultaneously.
One was the sound of Er Gouzi’s neck snapping as Chu Tian crushed his throat and cervical vertebrae.
The other was Tu Gang’s furious roar from behind.
[Ding… System Prompt: You have chosen the path of killing to stop killing. Quest progression route changed, quest progress accelerated. Kills: Tu Gang 0/1, Quest Reward: Blood Clan Secret Map Fragment x1.]
Seeing the system prompt, Chu Tian rejoiced inwardly; a quest reward had finally appeared.
Old Yang, standing in the middle, was stunned by Chu Tian’s actions and the voice from behind.
Chu Tian casually tossed the corpse onto the ground.
He also fixed his gaze on Old Yang, knowing that to eliminate Tu Gang,
He still had to see the other party’s choice. If Old Yang interfered,
His chances of success would be very low. He had witnessed Old Yang’s skills.
“Alas… Chu Tian, you’ve already killed Er Gou. You must have cooled off by now, right? You should leave!”
Old Yang’s decision warmed Chu Tian’s heart.
The man was indeed a man of integrity.
He disdained to collude with Tu Gang, but he was unwilling to act against Chu Tian against his conscience.
He could only try to dissuade Chu Tian.
Seeing the choice he made, Chu Tian grinned…
*Pfft*…
“Ugh…” Old Yang, having just spoken, suddenly clutched his lower back and turned around abruptly.
Chu Tian saw a bone-white bone sticking out of his lower back.
Tu Gang retreated sharply, shouting, “Attack, kill them all.”
The other few people in the tent, initially startled when Er Gouzi’s body was thrown down,
Their gazes shifted to resentment towards Chu Tian.
Now, hearing the clan leader’s command, they revealed a reckless demeanor, holding various sharpened bone weapons.
They charged towards Chu Tian and Yang Kai.
They hadn’t witnessed Chu Tian killing over four hundred giant scorpions, so his words earlier
Were all considered bragging. Four hundred giant scorpions, were they kidding him?
Therefore, these people felt no fear towards Chu Tian at all.
Although they didn’t understand why Chu Tian was fine after drinking the poisoned water,
These barbarians clearly had no intention of considering this matter.
“Old Yang, what now?” Chu Tian supported Yang Kai.
He tilted his head and asked the other.
Old Yang shook his head helplessly.
He reversed his grip on the bone dagger stuck in his waist.
With a forceful pull, he directly snapped it.
Clearly, he knew that pulling it out would be more dangerous.
“Hurry, go!” With that, he pushed Chu Tian out.
Chu Tian was stunned. Even now, Old Yang was still protecting the Tu clan.
As he was pushed out of the tent, he saw Dian Dian and her mother trembling.
Upon seeing Chu Tian emerge, they retreated several steps.
Finally, Dian Dian’s mother, with a trembling voice, stepped forward and said, “If you’re leaving, take Dian Dian with you!”
Chu Tian knew that they had reported to Old Yang and that he had killed Er Gouzi.
After he left, the mother and daughter would likely not have a good end.
However, her request put Chu Tian in a difficult position.
After all, he was here for a mission and would eventually leave.
What would happen to Dian Dian then?
Besides, he hadn’t intended to leave.
The mission wasn’t complete, so where would he go?
*Bang*… *Bang*… *Bang*…
Several people were flung out of the tent in succession.
Old Yang, covered in blood, also rushed out.
“Why haven’t you left yet… Hurry, take them with you!”
As Old Yang spoke, shouting and killing sounds could be heard from a distance.
Dozens of people, armed, immediately surrounded Chu Tian and the other three.
“It’s over…” Old Yang muttered.
Chu Tian naturally disdained his words; they were just a mob.
This Old Yang, despite possessing excellent skills, had the courage of a rabbit.
The crowd parted, and Tu Gang appeared.
His current attire surprised Chu Tian.
Was this guy playing dress-up with him?
Tu Gang, who was trying to escape, had changed into gaudy clothes and wore a grinning mask.
He looked exactly like a wild boar.
In his hands, he held the skull of some unknown creature.
“Last chance for you all, hand over the spatial device!” Tu Gang, after his transformation, seemed to possess a certain confidence.
“Heh heh…” Chu Tian grinned, flashed, and appeared behind Old Yang, who was being supported by Dian Dian and her mother.
His hands formed claws, gripping the protruding bone fragments at Old Yang’s waist.
With a forceful pull!
*Chih*… A gush of blood spurted out.
“Ugh…”
The intense pain caused the valiant Old Yang to only grunt.
“Ancient Tree… Form… Activate!”
“Heal… Spring… Life Blooms!”
Three skills were unleashed, all striking the wound.
To the astonishment of Dian Dian and her mother, the wound on Old Yang’s waist visibly healed at an accelerated rate.
Even Old Yang was dumbfounded, looking at Chu Tian and saying, “Are you a Priest?”
“What is a Priest?” Chu Tian retorted.
His voice was loud.
Everyone around heard him clearly.
They all showed angry expressions.
Chu Tian completely ignored their anger.
Old Yang was also stunned by his words, then slowly said, “You’re not a Priest… then who are you…”
At this moment, Chu Tian’s abilities had become a mystery in Old Yang’s mind.
Chu Tian, clearly not interested in being a Priest, waved his hand and threw a jet-black spear.
This was a weapon he had picked up after defeating so many monsters in Blood Castle.
A Silver-grade spear.
However, its appearance was similar to a gun.
With the restriction of the Slaughterer faction,
He wondered if Old Yang could use it.
After casually tossing it to him, Old Yang caught it.
With a casual flourish, a spear flourish appeared.
Chu Tian and his eyes lit up simultaneously.
Could the people here not be restricted by the game system’s factions?
Old Yang was extremely delighted, stroking the spear in his hand.
“You protect them!” Chu Tian’s “them” naturally referred to Dian Dian and her mother.
“Be careful!” Old Yang didn’t waste any words, leveling his spear and positioning himself in front of Dian Dian and her mother.
At this moment, Tu Gang, holding the strange skull, stepped forward.
“Possessing the power of a Priest, yet slandering the Priest, I cannot let you live…”
Saying that, he raised the skull above his head and began to chant.
