C89 The Willow Tree Is Hidden in the Shadows but the Flower Is Bright in the Dark

No one realized why Shen Qiutong was here at this time. Everyone was shocked, but Shen Donghui was unusually calm. He took out a stick of incense from his sleeve and ordered his subordinate, Go ahead. " Hurry up and bring Eldest Miss back to her room. "

The subordinate carefully took the stick of incense and was about to walk towards Shen Qiutong. Before he reached Shen Qiutong, that person was already kicked to the ground by Shen Qiutong.

Shen Donghui was seriously filled with anger, but he did not flare up immediately. Shen Dongyang coldly snorted. " It seems like you are using this thing to confuse Qiutong's mind. This was the reason why he came here to uncover the secret of the golden mountain. This incense was a skill created by an evil person. I really didn't expect it. I thought you were just blinded by greed. I never thought that you would actually come into contact with those evil people. How could our Shen family produce such a useless thing like you! "

Shen Donghui looked at the incense on the ground and knew that nothing could be hidden from him. This thing only existed in the devil religion. Since the devil religion had disappeared from the Central Plains, this thing had also disappeared.

The most vicious part about this incense was that it could control the consciousness of people and make them do things that they didn't want to do. Apart from that, this person was no different from an ordinary person.

Many people in the martial arts world had experienced this before, so after chasing the Devil Cult out of the Central Plains, they destroyed this thing as well. The sect that led the war back then was the Godly Knife Sect.

Shen Donghui said with a cold smile. " Do you think you have a chance with just the two of you?"

Shen Dongyang said faintly, " Even if the chance is small, we still have to give it a try. At least, we won't let you win too quickly. "

Shen Donghui laughed loudly and took out a steel knife from his waist. The blade was half the height of a person and was tied around Shen Donghui's waist like a willow leaf.

Shen Dongyang's eyes widened when he saw the blade. It was like a copper bell. No matter who it was, anyone his age could easily tell the origin of the blade.

This was the willow leaf saber, the treasured saber passed down from the ancestors of the Liu Clan. It was said that this saber could cut through iron like mud, giving off an oppressive cold light. Not only that, but it was also very convenient to carry because it was not as hard as ordinary cold weapons. Its entire body was soft. It was like a willow leaf swaying in the wind in April. Therefore, it was called a willow leaf knife.

Its previous owner was the Sect Master of the Liu Sect, who had shocked all the generations of the Central Plains. Since the Godly Knife Sect had recognized the Liu Sect as an evil sect, they had ordered Dugu Kuang and the others to attack the Liu Sect and massacre all the people in the manor, not leaving a single one alive!

At this point, the Liu Sect had become a legend in the Pugilistic World, and the Lanceblade they possessed had also disappeared without a trace in that great battle.

Many people had searched the battlefield many times, but there had been no news, because the Lancets were very easy to carry. Therefore, anyone could easily hide the saber at their waist and take it away after the great battle.

For a moment, most people thought that it was Dugu Kuang who secretly kept the saber, but because of Dugu Kuang's special status, no one dared to come and provoke him. Therefore, no one cared about the saber that had been famous for many years.

Shen Dongyang's trembling hands looked at the saber in Shen Donghui's hand and asked, What?" This, could this be the willow blade?"

Shen Donghui sneered and said lightly, "If it is not the saber, what could it be?"

Shen Dongyang was silent for a long time and sighed. He said, "Sigh, why did this blade fall into your hands? Could it be that you are related to the great battle back then? "

Shen Donghui said, "No, no, no. I was just an insignificant businessman back then. How could I be compared with you big shots? However, everyone has a change in fortune. As the saying goes, the wind and the water take turns. Today at my house, you, Shen Dongyang, have been showing off in front of me for more than half of your life. Are you still not satisfied? It's my turn now. "

Shen Dongyang snorted coldly and said in a flat tone. " I remember that you were really a good child back then. Almost all of the elders thought that you were a good person that was hard to come by in the Shen family. I also thought the same in the past. But now I realized that I was really wrong. I was really wrong. I know that our father and daughter might die in your hands today. But I only hope that you know one thing. I am the patriarch of the Shen family. From this moment on, you have been expelled from the Shen family. You will never be able to step into the Shen family for the rest of your life. "

Shen Donghui was slightly startled. A cold light flashed in the corner of his eyes. He asked with a smile on his face. What what? Did I hear it wrong? A man who is about to die wants to remove me from the Shen family? I really think you are crazy. You're really crazy. "

Shen Dongyang snorted coldly. " You're the one who's crazy. We're all at this age. Do you really need to go to such an extent for the sake of your so-called reputation and wealth? I have long regarded all of this as smoke in my eyes. Actually, if you are willing, I can really give you everything I have. Of course, this is on the premise that you do what you did in the past. "

"Do you want to be a dog under your feet like in the past? Shen Dongyang, oh Shen Dongyang, can I understand that you were begging me just now? Begging me to let you two go?" Shen Donghui said proudly.

Shen Dongyang shook his head and looked at his daughter who was standing at the door. He sighed. " If you think I am someone who would beg others to live, then you are wrong. That means you don't understand me yet, If you don't understand your opponent, then easily make a move. . . Then it's very likely that this will be the last time you make a move in your life. "

Shen Donghui had a very powerful smile on his face. However, his back felt cold. That's right, he suddenly realized that he really didn't understand Shen Dongyang. A person who could start from scratch and bring his family business to the height of the sun couldn't possibly be a simple person. Just by looking at the people he usually interacted with, one could tell what kind of person he was.

However, it was too late. Shen Donghui had already reached this step. He would never shrink back and live like in the past. If a person could choose again, Shen Donghui would still choose this path. This was also the only path he could take.

It was impossible for a restless person to be willing to remain unknown for the rest of his life. Just like a martial arts master with ultimate skills, how could he only stay in the deep mountains and forests for the rest of his life?

The path they often chose was to walk out of the deep mountains and forests. After shaking the world and making everyone remember his name, he suddenly realized that life was so boring. A person pursued to the end but did not pursue anything. Then, he threw all his glory and reputation to the back of his mind and went into seclusion in the mountains and forests, living a hermit life.

Shen Donghui was obviously a restless person. He could not remain silent and nameless like this. He was the martial arts expert with the ultimate skill. Just as he was about to use his fists and kicks, he would not give up everything he had obtained and would not go back on his path.

Shen Donghui was such a person, so wasn't Shen Dongyang the same? He could indeed give up everything he had, but what if he had never had all of this from the beginning to the end? Would he continue to search and chase? Until he had all of this?

No one has the right to despise a person who is chasing. What you have might not be what others might have, but as long as he is working hard, it is certain.

Although Shen Donghui's way of doing things is a bit extreme, many times, isn't it the same for many people around us? Shen Dongyang's breathing was getting weaker and weaker. He knew very well that if he wanted to defeat Shen Donghui, he had to defeat him mentally.

He could practice martial arts secretly, but the mentality he gained from interacting with all kinds of people over the past few decades was something Shen Donghui could never surpass. This was what made Shen Dongyang the most powerful.

Everyone thought that Shen Dongyang was second to none in terms of power. He was rich, and next was that he was a very powerful swordsman. However, only a few people understood that the most powerful thing about him was his mind. A person who could control his mind at will was the most terrifying person in the world.

Therefore, no matter how much pain he suffered in the dungeon, Shen Dongyang would not make a sound, and he would not take it to heart because of the physical pain. His heart was peaceful, just like a pool of lake water. It was always calm. No matter how you disturbed it, it would eventually return to calm.

Shen Dongyang continued. " Thinking back to the time when Fifth Uncle told me that his son, Dongxu, was not as good as you. You were also raised by him, and he treated you as his own son. He even wanted to leave his property to you, but Dongxu wasn't willing to. He was a frivolous young master who ate, drank, and had fun. There was nothing he didn't want to do. Without money, it was the same as losing his life. Fifth Uncle had been heartbroken at night many times. He cursed angrily, Why aren't you his biological son? Why are you still by his side? "

At this point, Shen Dongyang couldn't help feeling a little sad. Shen Donghui's face had already turned ashen. He had never thought of this. That Fifth Uncle, who told him that he had raised him, was actually so good to him. Not only was he indebted to him for raising him, but he was also very concerned about him. He even wanted to give everything he had to Shen Donghui.

And what did Shen Donghui do? He plotted to kill his beloved fifth uncle and his son. Was he still considered a human? The last person in this world who truly treated him well was actually killed by him. What was there to be reluctant about in this world?

Shen Donghui couldn't help but feel a little lost. Just when he was at a loss, Shen Dongyang suddenly jumped up, and his sharp blade went straight to Shen Donghui's throat. Only then did Shen Donghui react. He hurriedly raised the willow knife in his hand, but it was already too late. He could only retreat backwards, but was cut in the back by Shen Qiutong who was behind him.

Blood flowed down like a waterfall in June. Shen Donghui fell to the ground with an Ah sound. Shen Qiutong was after all a daughter and had never killed anyone before. He could not help but hesitate when attacking, so although this slash made him bleed a lot, it would not kill him.

Shen Donghui turned around and jumped up. With a stride, he stabbed the willow leaf knife at Shen Dongyang's armpit. No one knew what it was for. Shen Donghui did not stab at Shen Dongyang's throat but his armpit instead.

Only Shen Dongyang understood that this was the true power of the willow blade. It was a diversion.

The blade of the saber suddenly turned and turned into a flash of saber light. Thousands upon thousands of blade lights. Only one of them was the real blade. Shen Dongyang hurriedly used the blade to protect his neck. With a loud bang, Shen Dongyang and the blade flew seven or eight steps away.

Shen Qiutong was shocked. She took out the knife and used it to block the knife light for her father. Unfortunately, she was also seriously injured.

When Shen Donghui slashed at the father and daughter, a cold blade light fell from the sky. Murong Ke's blade blocked Shen Donghui's path. A cold light shot up into the sky. Shen Donghui didn't care who this person was. He was in his current condition.

However, he was wrong. His thousands of light beams were just the most ordinary blade light in front of Murong Ke. When their blades collided, a beam of light rose up, and nothing could be seen where it shone. Both of them retreated more than ten steps. Shen Donghui had to rely on the stone wall behind him to stand firm.

Shen Dongyang, who was half lying on the ground, had quick reflexes. He followed up with another slash. At this time, Shen Donghui had already gotten up. He was seriously injured and did not want to continue fighting. He pulled out the saber in his hand. With three swooshes, Shen Dongyang was forced back. The corner of Shen Dongyang's eye was cut open by the saber.

Shen Dongyang fell to the ground. Shen Qiutong was not in the mood to chase after him. She quickly went up to help her father up. Murong Ke jumped out and chased after Shen Donghui.

The Shen family members were shocked when they heard the news. Each and every one of them guarded the door worriedly. The doctor they invited stayed in the room for a full six hours to treat Shen Dongyang before barely managing to walk out.

The doctor wiped his sweat and sighed. " Master Shen was truly a good man. He had more than two hundred wounds on his body. Each injury is enough to make an ordinary person faint for many days, but Master Shen actually survived for so many days. It was truly commendable. I'm impressed. I've been suffering from medical treatment for so many years. There are more than ten million patients I've seen. Only Master Shen can be considered a hero in the world. "

Third Granduncle listened with hot tears in his eyes. He almost could not believe his ears. There were more than two hundred wounds. This was not something a pampered Great Master could bear. It was even more impossible for the Shen family to receive such treatment.

It was hard to guard against thieves at home every day and night. Everyone felt that it was the Godly Knife Sect who was causing trouble, but who would have thought that it was their newly elected patriarch who was causing trouble? Not only that, he was also going to kill the Shen Dongyang who created this family.

Shen Donghui's sins were unforgivable, but didn't Third Granduncle, who had pushed Shen Donghui to the position of patriarch, have any responsibility at all? Third Granduncle stood in the rain for a long time, unwilling to move. From the seams of the window, it could be seen that Shen Dongyang's bandaged wound was almost wrapped by a white cloth. Could this be the result he wanted to see?

He was a man who had lived for more than seventy years. In the entire Shen family, he could be considered a person who understood the situation better. It was because Shen Donghui had saved him that he pushed Shen Donghui, the devil, to the altar.

This was his sin. He had to bear his own sin. Otherwise, he would be letting down his conscience. Third Granduncle returned to his room and wrote down a lot of words on the table.

He had almost written down his entire life. After that, he walked quietly to the beam of the room.

There was a snow-white cloth tied to the roof beam. He would use this snow-white cloth to end all his sins and mistakes.
