Yun Shu didn’t want to prolong his life, though.

“Talk? Go talk in hell!”

Yun Shu’s hand dropped onto the top of Jiang Chun’s head in the shape of a claw.

Jiang Chun instantly died on the spot!

Silence seized the cave. After a while, a man slowly stepped out and suddenly went down onto his knees in front of Yun Shu,

“Senior Brother Yun, we will never tell anyone this, or we’ll be abandoned by both heaven and earth!”

“That’s right. No one is allowed to tell anyone what happened!” The other disciples also agreed.

Yun Shu instantly realized what they were trying to say. Committing murder was a felony in the Valley of Crime. So, they were afraid that he would silence them all to keep this a secret.

Yun Shu sneered. “It’s no big deal to kill a swine. You go and tell this to Elder Du.”

Yun Shu talked to one of the uninjured disciples.

“Senior Brother Yun, please spare my life! Please!” His voice was trembling.

“Don’t worry. Just go and find Elder Du.”

There were two bodies right in front of him.

Yet, Yun Shu had no intention to hide what he had done and even asked the man to find Elder Du. In their eyes, he was probably mentally sick.

The disciples were all a bundle of nerves as they waited, their breaths stuck in their throats. After a while, they heard a loud whirl of wind and then saw a large figure coming into the cave.

It was Elder Du, the guard of the valley.

Although Elder Du looked quite easygoing and always had a smile on his face, all the disciples knew that he could be severe when the situation called.

If anyone broke the rules, the elderly man would certainly show no mercy.

That was probably the end of Yun Shu. The disciples thought so to themselves.

However…

“Boy, you killed someone again? It’s been only a few hours since I saw you earlier,” said Old Du, shaking his head.

Yun Shu responded, “Senior Du, I never intended to cause any trouble, and it also bothers me a lot that there are always people trying to take my life. Last time, I almost got poisoned, and this time, Jiang Chun tried to kill me again. I was just protecting myself. How is that my problem?”

Old Du sighed. “Your words make sense, but it’s tough for me to deal with if you keep piling up bodies.”

The other disciples in the cave couldn’t believe what Elder Du just said.

What was going on here?

Something was clearly wrong!

At this time, one of the disciples, who was relatively older than the rest, stepped out and went down on his knees. “Elder Du, this is not Senior Brother Yun’s fault! Jiang Chun tried to kill him, so he had to fight back!”
