The siblings, Mu Fan and Ling'er, were frightened stiff by the scene before them, with Ling'er even shutting her eyes tightly, unwilling to witness what was about to unfold!
Even the severely injured martial artist gaped in shock, not expecting such a fierce onslaught from these individuals!
He had no idea how the young man would counter, for if it were him, he would undoubtedly be dood, perhaps managing to severely wound one at best.
Su Chen, observing their attack, curled his lips into a cold smirk, seemingly unconcerned!
Suddenly, his body leaned backward sharply, dodging the dagger aid at his heart, and at the sa ti, he kicked out, striking the wrist of the person on his side wielding a knife, sending the knife flying.
Out of nowhere, he now had a dagger in his hand, and almost in the sa instant, he swung the dagger above his own head!
The material of that dagger was unknown, but it instantly split the sword chopping down at him into two halves!
These moves might look simple, but to execute all within a single breath was sothing not many could accomplish!
The next mont, a surge of cold light erupted, and three spurts of fresh blood shot out; those three n were already down on the ground.
They were clutching their furiously bleeding necks, their faces filled with terror as they looked at Su Chen, as if he was a death-bringer from Hell!
Su Chen, facing this scene, felt nothing, for he had seen far too much...
Resignation, anger, regret? Those emotions were all too familiar to him!
The severely injured martial artist, observing Su Chen who appeared unscathed, could not help but feel a pang of fear!
In that mont, he realized that the young man's hands were probably stained with much more blood than he could ever imagine!
The remaining three, who had not even had the chance to react, were completely petrified by the sight.
Suddenly, soone scread, and they imdiately turned and fled!
At that point, they did not care if they could survive after returning; all they wanted was to escape from this devil!
Su Chen snorted coldly, flicked his wrist, and three Silver Needles flew out, hitting the back of their heads, causing them to collapse instantly, motionless!
Su Chen then dealt with the first man he had knocked out by hitting his jaw, resolving that since he had acted, he naturally could not be soft-hearted.
Having road the Dark World for many years, Su Chen knew this principle all too well.
"Alright, now that this matter is resolved, do you have any plans?"
Su Chen walked up to Mu Fan and asked casually.
"Thud!"
Upon hearing Su Chen's words, Mu Fan imdiately kneeled down, his voice trembling:
"Thank you, sir, for saving our lives!"
Then Ling'er and the severely injured martial artist also kneeled down, expressing their gratitude for Su Chen saving their lives.
If it weren't for Su Chen today, their fate would have been uncertain, likely resulting in death!
The Mu siblings could never have imagined that a young man they had t by chance a few months ago would save their lives today when they were in dire straits!
"Get up, you don't have to do this; I just did what ca naturally,"
Su Chen said, helping them to their feet with a smile.
Actually, he had driven away earlier because this incident had nothing to do with him, and he did not want to attract any unnecessary trouble.
Moreover, his own affairs were already a tangled ss, far from sorted out, leaving him no mind to ddle in the affairs of others.
However, after driving for a while, he ultimately felt uneasy and decided to turn back.
After all, he had t the siblings once before, and his impression of them had been rather positive; watching them face death was sothing he found difficult to do.
Su Chen also realized that after returning to the urban life, his heart had progressively softened.
If it had been the old days in the Dark World, he would definitely not have turned back; there, showing rcy was your greatest weakness!
In that place, there were only interests and slaughter, and only with such an approach could you survive there!
"No matter what, you saved us, and we siblings will rember this kindness in our hearts!"
Mu Fan spoke earnestly, and Mu Ling'er nodded in agreent.
"So, what are your plans now? Is there anything I can help with?"
Su Chen asked, since he had helped, he might as well help to the end.
"Mr. Su, could you please take us back to the hotel? Our belongings are still there."
Mu Fan said, sowhat embarrassed.
"No problem."
Su Chen nodded, as this was just a small effort for him.
The hotel was not too far away, about seven or eight kiloters, and they arrived in a short while.
After dropping them off, Su Chen accepted their warm invitation and went up to sit for a while, and once in the room, Mu Ling'er poured him a glass of water.
Su Chen took a sip of water and asked:
"What exactly happened today? Can you tell about it?"
Upon hearing Su Chen's question, everyone hesitated a bit, and seeing this, Su Chen waved his hand and said:
"If it's inconvenient, never mind; I was just asking casually."
"We definitely wouldn't tell others, but there's no need to conceal anything from our benefactor."
Mu Fan thought for a mont and said:
"Mr. Su, actually, we are all people from the Miao Tribe."
"Miao Tribe?"
Su Chen was sowhat taken aback by this, as he had heard of the Miao Tribe before, a mysterious entity.
It was said that the people there were skilled in witch doctoring and Gu techniques, and outsiders hardly understood them, let alone dared to provoke them; it could even be said that they were greatly feared!
"And those who were chasing you, are they from the Miao Tribe as well?" Su Chen couldn't help asking.
"Yes, but they are not from the sa tribe. Our Miao Tribe consists of many tribes both large and small, and they belong to the currently largest one, the Cang Lang Tribe,"
Mu Fan nodded as he spoke.
"Why were they chasing you?" Su Chen asked again.
"Because they wanted to take a book from us—the 'Spirit Insect Manual'. It's our tribe's supre treasure!"
Mu Dan said:
"Actually, there's a long story behind this; I should tell you the full story."
"Stop calling benefactor; it sounds strange. Just call Mr. Su like before."
Su Chen said with a smile.
"Alright, I will continue to call you Mr. Su."
Mu Fan smiled and said, a carefree person himself, he didn't insist after hearing Su Chen's words.
Then he began to tell Su Chen about the background and consequences.
It turned out that, years ago, the Miao Tribe had seven major tribes, with other tribes almost attached to them.
The strongest among these seven tribes was the Heavenly Moon Tribe, followed by the Cang Lang Tribe, then the Red Hawk Tribe, with the rest being more or less the sa.
Since the Heavenly Moon Tribe was the strongest, the rulers of the Miao also ca from the Heavenly Moon Tribe.
This point was actually similar to other parts of the world; everything was dictated by power!
