"Alright! You're ruthless!" Nelson Chong's palm slapped Lucy Li's forehead, injecting a potent toxin into her body.
"Ferrid Chu, please save me!" Lucy Li pleaded.
"I can save you, but only if Tian Hui Pavilion and you belong to the Chu family. Otherwise, it's a no-go." Ferrid Chu said calmly.
"Belong to your Chu family? Dream on!" Lucy Li retorted.
"Then prepare to die!" Ferrid Chu sneered.
"You..." Feeling the poison in her body starting to take effect, Lucy Li bit her lip tightly, struggling for a few seconds before finally yielding. "Fine, if you can save me, from today onwards, both I, Lucy Li, and Tian Hui Pavilion will belong to your Chu family!"
"You two, stop the nonsense! At this critical moment, are you still talking business? Do you take me for air? Ferrid Chu, hand over Dragonchant!" Nelson Chong, driven to the edge by Ferrid Chu and Lucy Li, shouted loudly.
"Hmm?"
Before he could finish speaking, Nelson Chong felt his body rise, and at the same time, his throat tightened. When he looked again, Ferrid Chu was already standing in front of him, tightly gripping his throat!
"The sheath of the Tiger Roar Sword, it's mine now!" Ferrid Chu's clear eyes were filled with a murderous intent as he looked at Nelson Chong. In an instant, with a cracking sound, he snapped Nelson Chong's throat!
Pulling out the Tiger Roar Sword hidden on Nelson Chong's body, Ferrid Chu tossed him to the ground. As Nelson Chong died, a black smoke emerged from his body. The poison he cultivated needed constant nourishment from toxins and gases. With his death, the poisonous substances in his body began to dissipate.
Ferrid Chu held the Tiger Roar Sword, heavy and gleaming, made of pure gold. On both sides were engraved fierce tigers. The wide-open mouth of the tiger was the mouth of the sheath.
Crack!
Drawing the Dragonchant sword and inserting it into the Tiger Roar Sword, the tiger's mouth immediately clamped shut, emitting a resounding roar. At the same time, the Dragonchant inside the sheath also trembled violently, sending waves of energy pulsating out, making Ferrid Chu's clothes billow!
Gripping the hilt of the Dragonchant sword, Ferrid Chu felt a majestic force surge straight into his palm. Drawing out the Dragonchant once again, Ferrid Chu was astonished to find that the dragon pattern engraved on the blade now had golden scales on its back, making the dragon look even more vivid!
With Dragonchant and Tiger Roar combined, the power of this sword increased by dozens of times!
"You straight-laced guy, always focused on the sword. Hurry up and detoxify me. I belong to you now, aren't you going to take care of me?" Lucy Li, pale-faced, spoke with fading strength.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh!
Ferrid Chu flicked out over a dozen golden Dragon Needles, piercing different acupoints on Lucy Li. After just a few breaths, Lucy Li started to vomit thick black blood!
At the same time, Ferrid Chu also detoxified the heavily injured Poseidon Hu. A few minutes later, his complexion regained its rosy hue.
"Thank you, Master, for sparing my life. I will forever remember this kindness. Hundreds of my family members were killed. I will go back and gather my old comrades to rebuild our Hu Xiao Villa. If I have the chance to meet Master again in the future, I will surely repay Master for today's favour!" Poseidon Hu bowed in gratitude before swiftly heading towards Hu Xiao Villa.
"Ferrid Chu..."
Lucy Li looked at Ferrid Chu, her pretty face awkward, biting her lip lightly. After a few seconds of hesitation, she finally clasped her hands. "Master Ferrid, from now on, Tian Hui Pavilion belongs to the Chu family. I promise to fulfill this pledge."
"Just a moment ago, your promise was that both you, Lucy Li, and Tian Hui Pavilion would belong to the Chu family. Now calling me 'Master Ferrid' doesn't seem quite appropriate, does it?" Ferrid Chu said lightly.
Lucy Li took a deep breath, then bowed respectfully again. "Master, Lucy Li and Tian Hui Pavilion will be at your service from now on."
"Good, you catch on quickly!" Ferrid Chu said casually, then flew out a golden needle, directly piercing a hidden acupoint on Lucy Li.
"What does this mean?" Lucy Li looked at Ferrid Chu in astonishment, her face slightly red. That acupoint was somewhat embarrassing for her.
"Don't speak!" Ferrid Chu gently stirred the golden needle, injecting a stream of spiritual energy. He then tapped several other acupoints on Lucy Li.
"Bang!"
A loud sound came from Lucy Li's forehead. She looked at Ferrid Chu in amazement. "Master, my charm technique has advanced to the fifth level!"
There were nine levels in the charm technique, and Lucy Li had jumped from the third level straight to the fifth. Such tremendous progress was something she might not have achieved in years, even decades!
"Thank you, Master!"
Lucy Li said joyfully, her happiness evident.
"In the future, you will serve me exclusively. Whatever information I need, you will provide it to me first. As for others seeking information from me, you should naturally refuse." Ferrid Chu said indifferently.
"Master, Lucy will remember!" Lucy Li clasped her hands once again.
She suddenly felt that today had been incredibly surreal. Just a few hours ago, she had resented Ferrid Chu and wished to teach him a lesson. But due to a twist of fate, she had become Ferrid Chu's person, addressing him as 'Master'.
Although the transfer of Tian Hui Pavilion to the Chu family might invite opposition from many forces in Maple City, Ferrid Chu's strength was currently unfathomable.
More importantly, Ferrid Chu could easily elevate her charm technique by two levels. With such power, it would be hard to find an equal in the entire Spirit Realm.
So, belonging to Ferrid Chu didn't feel awkward or uncomfortable for Lucy Li. Instead, she felt a sense of belonging and anticipation.
"Master, yesterday, Euan Chen from the Chen family bought information from me. He wanted information on the personnel of Chu's Medicine Hall." Lucy Li remembered this and quickly reported it to Ferrid Chu.
Ferrid Chu nodded slightly, then turned to Violet who had come with him. "You go to Chu's Medicine Hall and meet up with your sister. Guard the Medicine Hall together. If anyone from the Chen family comes, show them no mercy!"
"Yes!"
Violet accepted the order and promptly left Tian Hui Pavilion, heading towards Chu's Medicine Hall.
"If there's any information about our Chu family, inform me promptly." Ferrid Chu instructed Lucy Li, then turned to leave.
"Master, it's getting late. It's time for dinner. Shall I prepare some dishes for you and accompany you for a few drinks? What do you think?" Lucy Li respectfully offered.
"No need, I have other matters to attend to." Ferrid Chu walked away without looking back.
Watching Ferrid Chu's tall figure gradually recede, Lucy Li's eyes flickered with a hint of melancholy.
Euan Chen from the Chen family will undoubtedly launch an attack against the Chu family. Ferrid Chu was very certain about this.
Killing Euan Chen was a piece of cake for Ferrid Chu, but what he wanted to eliminate was not just Euan Chen, but the entire Chen family behind him, the Chen family in Spirit Realm!
In two days, it would be the Chen family's ancestral worship day. At that time, the head of the Chen family, Fisher Chen, who was also Euan Chen's father, would bring the main members of the family to worship at the Chen family tomb in Maple City.
And three days later, it would be the memorial day for Ferrid Chu's parents. Ferrid Chu planned to use the heads of the Chen family as offerings to his parents!
