Chapter 39 A Bloody Massacre

"Brother Fru, please come in."

Old Fru nodded and calmly walked forward.

And at this moment, the air grew mighty tense, as everything around Old Fru seemed to turn its attention towards him.

The trees that previously blew gently in all directions now leaned towards him instead, as if watching his every move.

The shrubs on the floor were the same as well.

The entire jungle seemed focused entirely on Old Fru.

But more importantly, the lady who had just gracefully opened the door to him had a strange light in her eyes as her seemingly gentle smile became crooked.

Her expression was that straight out of a horror movie, as her lips pulled upward at an exaggerated angle that was impossible for ordinary humans to do.

Suddenly, old Fru, just one step away from entering, raised and turned around warmly.

"Sayo. Meeting you again has been the best gift anyone could give me."

The lady smiled stiffly while continuously staring at the door behind him: "Brother Fru. Why are we still talking about this? Aren't I here now? So why don't we go in and talk more?"

Old Fru shook his head and sighed: "Sayo. Do you know the greatest thing about love? It's the ability to recognize one's partner."

"I know that. But why don't we talk about it more inside?"

Old Fru chuckled bitterly: "Sayo. The depth of my love for you is something that no one can compare to in my heart. That said, I've always been able to recognize fakes at the drop of a hat."

The stiffly smiling lady started fidgeting slightly: "Come now, brother Fru. How come I didn't understand what you're talking about?"

Old Fru walked towards her with an even broader smile than before.

"I have to admit, for a moment, I sincerely wanted to stay here forever. But you're not my beloved. You're not my Fru Che's woman. You are nothing but a fraud. Indeed, I know my woman is alive somewhere… But no matter where she is, she would never willingly build her home in an evil sect."

Old Fru quickly took out his sword, instantly causing the lady's face to get distorted.

Her face started sagging as if leaking to the ground.

Her neck seemed to grow longer, with many rings of fat.

Ugh... It was a disgusting brownish worm that was somehow transparent as well.

Its body was so horrendous.

Imagine accidentally kissing it?

Old Fru almost looked when that thought flashed through his mind.

Luckily, he was prepared.

~Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle.

Seeing that its ploy had been uncovered, fake Sayo tried to run away into the hole.

But how could Old Fru let it go?

"Goodbye, fake Sayo."

~Swish!

Old Fru sliced through the last and appeared behind her with his eyes closed.

It was only after the creature dropped dead that Old Fru finally placed his sword back and opened his eyes.

Now, the scene before him had drastically changed to one that would undoubtedly bring about tremble in fear.

It was all an illusion aimed at using a person's fondest memories or beloved ones against them.

Looking at the scene before him, Old Fru's expression turned grim.

The spot where the house previously existed had become a vast bottomless pit with countless weird groaning sounds coming from beneath.

Old Fru couldn't see what creatures were down there.

But judging from their methods, they should be stronger than he was.

After all, they were able to trap him because he had a lower cultivation level than they.

.

As for what had been following him this entire time, it looked like a large human-sized worm on a plant.

Judging from everything that happened, although the thing down the while is powerful, it seems that its weakest body extension should be this worm thing.

It didn't dare to attack him and even tried to run back into the hole, meaning that it was just something used to distract or lure its victims in.

So was the thing down there, plant, beast, or a mixture of both?

The key point was that there were many things down there.

When Old Fru woke up, he saw the other Shadow guards drawn forward by other Worm thingies.

Of course, he destroyed them, waking everyone up instantly.

"Remember! Nothing here is real. Keep your heads level-headed."

"Yes, elder Fru."

"Alright. Let's go!"

Old Fru dared not dilly dally here anymore.

Who knew what other tricks these creatures would have?

With that, they went forward, facing countless dangerous situations one by one.

They faced several killing formations that sent brutal attacks at them nonstop until they finally broke the formation.

But that wasn't the only type of formation or danger they faced.

From narrowly escaping multiple traps to battling several creatures that acted as guardians here within the restricted area, Old Fru and the rest were already dead ass tired when they finally reached the location where the children were locked up.

Old Fru himself was a Formation Master taught by Chu Che's mother and a few other teachers.

So without a doubt, if old Fru wanted, he could leave here and get famous.

But he chose to stay behind and care for Chu Che instead.

What truly saved them this time was their knowledge of formation arrays.

Many moderate-ranked formations here were too flawed, in Old Fru's opinion.

Compared to those around Wenji town, one could immediately tell which ones were superior.

The ones in this sect were rubbish.

And while Old Fru and his gang finished saving the children, Chu Che, on the other hand, continued his murderous bloodbath.

.

Plugh.

Sect Elder Wushi coughed a huge ounce of blood after receiving a fatal attack from Chu Che.

How could this be?

His eyes darted left and right as he tried to remain focused

F***!

He felt his life draining before his eyes as he continuously glared at Chu Che.

The heavens were truly unjust!

He had painstakingly cultivated for close to 281 years now to get to his current level.

Yet, the brat of just 16 years seemed stronger than he was.

Was this some sort of joke?

Thinking about it made Wushi even more unwilling to die in his hands.

He almost cried, cursing the heavens for their biased favorability towards the youngster.

"Why? Why? Why did the heavens bless you so much?"

"Old man. I've been asking myself the same question for years now. Why did the heavens make me this handsome? Why did they make me so eye-catching? This is something that I, too, want to know."

"..."

Chu Che sighed. " Alas, even you are drawn to my handsomeness. But don't worry. I'll make this quick to end your frustration."

(-_-)

Wushi didn't even have the strength to get angry anymore, as he had just let himself go.

At this moment, any place was better than here.

~Swish

He was dead.action

The last elder was dead.

With that, Chu Che turned toward everyone else calmly.

"Now, it's your turn."
