Chapter 1265: Chapter 1265: Who Was Wrong? [Bonus for Alliance Hierarch An]

Seeing the ancient tree sprout brought joy to everyone.

Except for He Peng!

And of course, the members of the He Family!

He Peng’s heart was filled with fear: "How is this possible?! How is this possible?! How could you make this ancient tree sprout?! This can’t be?!" 𝘧𝘳𝘦ℯ𝓌𝘦𝒷𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝓁.𝒸𝘰𝓂

He had previously calculated that if one wished to make the ancient tree sprout, it would require decades of nurturing using the Dragon Vein Power within a Feng Shui Array!

And Xiao Xiao’s so-called blood sacrifice was merely to the array, not to the ancient tree!

However, the backlash was real, naturally, it was the Dragon Vein Power’s backlash against the ancient tree.

There’s a lot behind this, so let’s not go into specifics!

But no matter what, these are the reasons He Peng was certain Medicine King Valley wouldn’t abandon him!

Because Medicine King Valley needed them to keep the array going!

Yet! Just earlier! Right in front of his eyes!

He actually witnessed Lu Xiaobu make the ancient tree sprout out of thin air?!

This is impossible! Impossible!

Of course, even if he didn’t believe it, facts are facts!

The ancient tree has sprouted!

He’s become useless!

A wave of fear rose in his heart!

He even directly saw death approaching!

"Sect Master! Save me! Save me! I’m still useful! Still useful! Though the ancient tree has sprouted, nurturing it further is still beneficial! Sect Master! Save me!"

He Peng crawled to the side of the Medicine King Valley Sect Master, clutching the Sect Master’s leg and pleading vehemently.

He couldn’t be useless, being useless would mean certain death!

"Get off!" The Medicine King Valley Sect Master kicked him without mercy.

This time, he did not hold back, one kick breaking six of He Peng’s ribs!

He hadn’t forgotten that this fool almost caused the whole Medicine King Valley to vanish into dust!

Now he dares to beg? Rest assured, Lu Xiaobu doesn’t need to kill you!

Because there’s no chance for it!

"Old Poison, what do you say?" Lu Xiaobu looked at Old Poison.

"Master Lu, as I mentioned before, I owe you a favor!" Old Poison acknowledged earnestly.

"And these guys?" Lu Xiaobu looked at those He Family members who had been like hungry wolves but were now crying and wailing.

"Let me handle them." Old Poison glanced at Xiao Xiao, who was still unconscious, and said, "For you, it’s probably not convenient."

"Alright, thank you then." Lu Xiaobu nodded.

Indeed, it wasn’t appropriate for him to do it personally, as he was already Xiao Xiao’s enemy for killing her father, grandfather, and brother.

If he personally wiped out the He Family now, it really wouldn’t make sense!

"It’s only right. This bunch of garbage can still be considered as belonging to Medicine King Valley, and we won’t shirk the blame." Old Poison nodded and then addressed the Sect Master: "Capture them all and treat them as traitors!"

"Yes." The Sect Master nodded.

In any sect or organization, the crime of a traitor is almost always the highest!

Because while there might be reasons for other actions, the existence of a traitor is absolutely intolerable!

Thus, this sentence sealed their fate — death was the only path!

Suddenly, these people began to wail.

Some resisted, some begged, some shirked the blame, some cursed!

"No! No!"

"We don’t want to die! Please, spare us!"

"It’s not related to us! It’s all He Peng! It’s all He Peng!"

"I was wrong! I was wrong! I’m willing to serve as a slave, please let me go!"

"Lu Xiaobu! Even if I become a malicious ghost, I will curse you! It’s all because of you! And that bitch He Mei!"

"Peng!"

The last speaker had his chest exploded by Zhang Meng’s kick, dying instantly!

"Sorry about that." Lu Xiaobu said to Old Poison.

"Perfectly normal." Old Poison smiled: "It should be said, dying instantly is already a mercy for them!"

Before, Xiao Xiao’s life was disregarded; now it’s the same for these people!

And at this moment.

"Report Sect Master, a woman is tied up inside the He Family’s side hall!" A disciple reported: "She should be Xiao Xiao’s mother. May I ask how to handle this?"

"Master Lu, what do you suggest?" Old Poison consulted Lu Xiaobu.

"Let her come, explain it clearly. She should have nothing to do with this matter." Lu Xiaobu considered.

Soon, Xiao Xiao’s mother, disheveled and with blood on her head, rushed over: "Xiao Xiao! Xiao Xiao! Where is my Xiao Xiao?!"

Then, she saw Lu Xiaobu and grabbed his hand, pleading: "Lu Xiaobu! I beg you! I beg you! Xiao Xiao knows nothing! Nothing! You’re her uncle! Please spare her!"

She had been tied up the whole time, so she knew nothing.

However, she knew the He Family would certainly use Xiao Xiao against Lu Xiaobu!

Could someone as ruthless as Lu Xiaobu spare Xiao Xiao?

"She’s over there, go ahead." Lu Xiaobu sighed and pointed to Xiao Xiao, who was held by Lu Father.

"Xiao Xiao! Xiao Xiao!" Xiao Xiao’s mother rushed over, snatching Xiao Xiao from Lu Father’s arms, and guardedly watched everyone.

She appeared frantic.

Everyone knew that anyone approaching her now would likely face an attack!

A woman may be weak, but a mother is strong!

A woman is weak, but a mother is strong!

Just like that mother from years ago, who would rather perish to protect Lu Xiaobu and his brothers!

Lu Father glanced at Xiao Xiao’s mother, closing his eyes slightly.

What a catastrophe this is!

Why did it turn out this way!

They could have been a happy family!

Yet it ended in mutual destruction!

Suddenly, he felt very tired and wanted to sleep!

"Alright! Dad! Let’s go!" Lu Xiaobu supported Lu Father, leading him out: "Leave it to the mother and daughter!"

The mother and daughter needed time, and his father needed time!

Watching Lu Xiaobu’s departing figure, the madness in Xiao Xiao’s mother’s eyes gradually faded!

She looked at the figure of Lu Xiaobu, not particularly tall or strong, with complicated feelings.

Logically, this person should be a demon in her eyes, after all, he killed her father-in-law, her husband, and her son!

From every angle, he should be an absolute demon!

But!

At this moment, now, as she held Xiao Xiao, she couldn’t help thinking constantly about He Mei, the woman who once enchanted the city and called her sister-in-law!

What must it have felt like for He Mei to watch her son leave her, knowing that her own father would strip her son of everything?!

Is Lu Xiaobu a monster?!

He’s also just a child who lost his mother young!

Was it wrong for him to seek revenge?! Apparently not!

Was it wrong for me to hate him?! Apparently not!

Who’s truly at fault?!

She’s now confused!
