chapter 18 It’s time for my dragon to drink blood!

"Ah! Let go of me!"
It felt like his scalp was about to be torn off. Brooks Chen turned his gaze towards the person attacking him, his voice filled with horror. "Ferrid Chu, it's you!"
"He's Ferrid Chu! Quickly, capture him!" The new steward was also shocked for a second, then hurriedly shouted to the thugs.
Due to Ferrid Chu's previous takeover of the Chen Family Pharmacy, the security measures at the Chen family had been enhanced. Soon, over twenty thugs surrounded Ferrid Chu.
"Ferrid Chu, release me now! Otherwise, I'll make sure you beg for life but find no mercy, and wish for death but find no relief!" Brooks Chen was gripped by Ferrid Chu's hair, not daring to move.
"Tear!"
Ferrid Chu directly ripped off a chunk of Brooks Chen's hair, along with a large piece of his scalp. Then, a heavy punch landed, smashing Brooks Chen's head into the cement wall!
"Bang!"
Brooks Chen's skull was crushed by Ferrid Chu's powerful punch. Blood burst out like a red firework suddenly blooming!
"Yikes!" The new steward's face turned pale with shock. Brooks Chen was, after all, the young master of the Chen family. His death in the Chen Family Pharmacy would certainly implicate the steward.
At the same time, over twenty thugs surged towards Ferrid Chu.
"My Dragon's Roar hasn't tasted blood in a long time. Consider yourselves a feast for my Dragon's Roar!"
Ferrid Chu swung the Dragon's Roar, a sword, sending it slashing through. Instantly, more than ten people were cut in half by the blade or the sword qi. With a swift turn, Ferrid Chu directly chopped off the remaining few people's bodies at the waist!
"Splurt! Splurt! Splurt!"
Blood gushed out, filling the pharmacy with a pungent, metallic scent, permeating the nostrils of everyone present.
"Swoosh!"
Just then, a figure shot towards Ferrid Chu. He was a martial cultivator sent by the Chen family to guard the pharmacy, his cultivation already at the Eighth Layer of the Fortune Realm.
With both feet on the ground, his spiritual energy surged, and he shot towards Ferrid Chu like a soaring eagle!
"Eagle Spreads its Wings!"
This man shouted loudly. Immediately, under his sleeves, a row of sharp long knives was revealed!
"Fancy tricks!" Ferrid Chu sneered. He raised his right foot high, stomping the man's head under his foot. With a forceful push, Ferrid Chu directly crushed the man's head!
"Damn..."
The steward's face turned from ugly to extreme horror. On his frightened face, traces of fear emerged, for Ferrid Chu was about to kill him!
"Transfer the money, compensate me for my mental distress!" Ferrid Chu threw Jim Chu's account details at the steward.
"What?"
The steward was dumbfounded, but quickly understood. In just a few seconds, he transferred a total of two billion, from both his own account and the pharmacy's funds, to Jim Chu.
Jim Chu received the notification, momentarily stunned. Two billion, this was a major move. He also understood that the Young Master had just taken over the pharmacy!
"You tied up our Chu Family's herb gatherers, so I'll disable your legs as punishment!"
With the Dragon's Roar in his hand, it transformed into a streak of blood-red light. With a 'splat', the steward's legs were chopped off!
"From today on, this pharmacy will revert to the name of our Chu family!"
Ignoring the steward's heart-wrenching screams, Ferrid Chu picked him up and tossed him out of the pharmacy.
Ferrid Chu went to free the six girls, and then found clothes for Lorelei You.
"Young Master..."
Lorelei You looked at Ferrid Chu in astonishment. After the Chu family fell, she had only seen Ferrid Chu in the news, reporting his supposed death in a cliff fall. She never expected to see him here, rescuing them.
"Lorelei You."
Ferrid Chu was quite familiar with Lorelei You. He got straight to the point, "Would you like to continue working as herb gatherers for our Chu family?"
"Yes!"
Lorelei You didn't hesitate, the words came out of her mouth spontaneously. The other five girls also nodded in agreement.
"Good!"
Ferrid Chu nodded solemnly. He called Jim Chu to provide the information of these girls, whom Jim Chu already knew. Soon, each of these girls received ten million in their accounts!
"Young Master?"
Lorelei You, looking at the text message on her phone, looked up at Ferrid Chu in surprise.
"For your year of suffering, this is what you deserve. Starting today, you officially become herb gatherers for the Chu Family Pharmacy, with a salary five times higher than before."
Ferrid Chu said sincerely.
"Such good treatment!"
The girls were astonished once again. Then, smiles appeared on their faces. Herb gathering was their specialty, and they all wanted to continue with it.
"Squeak!"
At this moment, the door of the pharmacy was pushed open. A man in a white suit walked in, none other than the top figure in Maple City, Clara Bai.
He had seen the Chen Family steward wailing on the ground outside, so even though he was mentally prepared, he still felt nauseous upon seeing the twenty-something bodies lying haphazardly inside the room.
As a big shot in Maple City, he naturally knew Ferrid Chu's specific location. He had come to report to Ferrid Chu.
"Tidy up this place."
Clara Bai instructed his men.
Then, he walked up to Ferrid Chu, who stood up to assist him, after all, there were six girls inside.
"Mr. Bai, what brings you here?" Ferrid Chu wanted to give Clara Bai some face and discuss matters elsewhere, aside from Purple Cloud Sect personnel.
Clara Bai instantly unsderstood, bowing slightly. "Master Chu, I have something to discuss with you."
The two of them entered the pharmacy's conference room, Clara Bai closed the door, and he began, "Master, tomorrow I will transfer all the documents of this pharmacy to your name."
Ferrid Chu shook his head. "You can coordinate these matters with my steward, Jim Chu. What about the information I asked you to investigate?"
Clara Bai furrowed his brows. "Master, I'm afraid I haven't been very successful. The red-robed person who killed your parents a year ago, I still haven't found any concrete leads. I've only discovered that this person hails from the capital. Even the Chen family doesn't know the true identity of this red-robed person. They always wore a mask. The Chen family only realized the person's terrifying strength and decided to collaborate, ultimately destroying your Chu family and seizing your assets."
Ferrid Chu nodded slightly. It was not surprising that Clara Bai hadn't been able to find out the identity of the red-robed person. Even Lucy Li didn't know, and Clara Bai investigating would not yield more clues.
"Behind Maple City's Chen family, there is another Chen family, based in Spirit Realm. Is there a connection between this red-robed person and the Chen family in Spirit Realm?" Ferrid Chu speculated.
"The Chen family in Spirit Realm?" Clara Bai looked at Ferrid Chu in astonishment. At present, the head of the Chen family in Maple City was Euan Chen, but his father, Fisher Chen, was firmly rooted in Spirit Realm. The influence of Fisher Chen's Chen family in Spirit Realm was far greater than Euan Chen's power. This was also why Euan Chen dared to act recklessly in Maple City, relying on his father's backing.
"The red-robed person possesses terrifying strength. It's highly likely that they come from one of the major sects. Going by this analysis, it's very probable that this red-robed person has a connection with the Chen family in Spirit Realm. After all, the patriarch Fisher Chen is tremendously powerful, with close ties to many sects in the Nine Provinces!" Clara Bai explained.
"Meaning, it's possible that this red-robed person first contacted Fisher Chen, learned about the Jade-Faced Azure Dragon in our Chu family, and then came to Maple City, finding Euan Chen. Together, they seized our family's treasured heirloom and killed my parents!" Ferrid Chu's eyes gleamed with vengeful light.
