54 Chapter 54 – Danger (1/2)

Zhu Xuan was moving fast towards the Snowcape Demon Mountain and almost reached the border of the mountain.

He was thinking where he needs to go and what to do next after entering the Snowcape Demon Mountain. He can't stay in there forever and since Lei Shu academy is no lost cause he was thinking if he should join one of the sects in the kingdom.

Anyway, he was first planning to go to Tanxin city and think of his future plans.

While he was thinking, he suddenly felt a killing intent and immediately dodged to the side form where he was and boom sound heard from behind him.

He turned around while moving and saw two people rushing out of the dust created by the attack. He immediately recognized both of them. One of them was a Zhu clan elder who was supporting Zhu Lang, Zhu Shen Chen who is at Qi gathering initial stage and the other was a subordinate of General Hong Dong Shen, Ru Feng who is at Qi gathering middle stage.

Ru Feng sneered ”You senses are quite sharp to be able to escape my attack. I expected nothing less from the son of Silver shadow, Zhu Ling Han.”

Zhu Xuan was shocked to hear it and then he suddenly understood that some elder of the main hall have betrayed the Zhu clan. And seeing the elder from Zhu Lang's faction here to kill him he understood Zhu Lang must have been the one who released his father's information and they must have followed his aunt and found him.

Zhu Xuan didn't know was after he left the arena the day before, one of the main hall elder who supported Zhu Lang, afraid of some powerful faction coming and destroying the Zhu clan, revealed all the information regarding what happened fifteen years ago hoping Zhu Lang, using his core disciple status to protect him.

Zhu Lang was first shocked, but then was ecstatic since this is the best opportunity to destroy Zhu Xuan and at the same time getting closer to the imperial family. He already lost interest in becoming the clan leader of Zhu clan when he become a core disciple and learnt more about the world of cultivators. He wanted to widen his horizons and become stronger, and he felt this is his chance and approached Feng Tian, ninth imperial prince staying in Qinglu city. He informed of the true identity of Silver shadow and Zhu Xuan, but he said Zhu Ling Han threatened to eradicate the entire clan if they didn't protect his son.

Zhu Lang was also the one who gave the idea of following Zhu Jia Li, considering how close they were and Feng Tian ordered Ru Feng along with Zhu Shen Chen to follow her while the rest of the imperial army still searching through every nook and corner in Qinglu city.

Ru Feng was skeptical at first, but after following her for a day she left the city and came to Clearwater city with a clan elder which confused him. But he was patient and waited, and when he saw her leaving alone and finally meeting Zhu Xuan near Snowcape Demon Mountain he was incredibly happy.

Zhu Xuan looked at them with a grim face and also worried about his aunt and tenth sister since those two are the ones close to him in the clan.

Seeing Zhu Xuan not speaking anything, Ru Feng sneered and said with a mocking tone ”It is heavens will for me kill the son of Silver Shadow.”

Zhu Shen Chen who was next to Ru Feng said ”Senior Ru Feng, you can't kill him. Second prince asked him to capture him and take him back alive to get some information from him. And if we capture him, we can use him to lay a trap to kill Silver Shadow.”

Seeing Ru Feng started thinking, he continued ”Moreover, if we capture him we might be able to learn the secret about the powers of the silver shadow. So Senior let me capture him. You don't have to take action for a puny body purification stage brat.”

”Very well, but don't take long and capture him as fast as possible. Even though his aunt left, there is a possibility she come back with that elder to safeguard him after hearing the battle sound” Ru Feng said lightly and backed away to watch the battle.

Zhu Xuan didn't say anything and took out his sword from the sheath ready to attack. Zhu Shen Chen put on his glove and approached fast moving with an incredible speed. He attacked at Zhu Xuan's chest but he put up his sword against the approaching fist. Both of them clashed and Zhu Xuan was pushed back with an incredible force. He flipped and steadied himself tens of meters away.
