Chapter 126 Zhu Ye: The ancestor’s head is my certificate of surrender!
"Brother Li, are you up? It's urgent!"

Li Daoxuan, who was snoring on the bed one second, had already arrived at the door of the room and opened the door the next second.

"what's up?"

After sleeping all night, Li Daoxuan felt that his condition was better than ever.

He was originally planning to wait a few days before taking action against the two sixth-rate ancestors, but he couldn't wait to set off now.

"Come in."

Fang Jie entered the house. Zhou Xu and Bai Jun, who lived in the yard next door, heard the noise and followed him.

Three people and one ghost came to Li Daoxuan's room, and Fang Jie took out a letter from his arms.

"Who gave it?"

Li Daoxuan reached out and took it.

"The head of the Zhu family...Zhu Ye, he sent someone secretly and said he must not reveal it."

Li Daoxuan nodded and opened the letter.

There is not much content, only half of a piece of paper is written.

Li Daoxuan watched it from beginning to end with a smile on his lips.

"Brother Li, what is written in this letter?"

"Look at it."

Li Daoxuan handed the letter out, and they gathered around to look at it. After a while, they all raised their heads, with a hint of astonishment in their eyes.

"Do you think Zhu Ye is trustworthy?"

Li Daoxuan tapped his fingers on the back of the chair, frowning and thinking.

The content of the letter was actually very simple, that is, Zhu Ye wanted to surrender. In the letter, he revealed that the ancestor of the Zhu family asked him to spread the news about Tai Sui in the Red Lantern Square within Shenwu City.

But Zhu Ye was concerned about Li Daoxuan's safety, so he only spread the news in Fengxuan City and Ghost Cave City.

It has not spread in Shanshui City and Baozang City.

In addition, Zhu Ye also revealed in the letter the attitude and method of the Zhu and Zheng families towards the Chen Gu family, and informed him when and where Zhu Laozu would attack the fleeing Gu family.

And he also directly informed Li Daoxuan of Zhu Laozu's weaknesses.

Zhu Laozu was injured in his early years, so his right leg is actually disabled. He can walk normally, but once he starts to use it, his right leg cannot support it for long.

At the end of the letter, Zhu Ye solemnly apologized and told Li Daoxuan in the letter.

He said that he had left Temuma City to express his repentance.

"This……"

For a moment, Fang Jie didn't know what to say. He didn't know whether he should say that Zhu Ye was aware of current affairs or that he was a "filial son and virtuous grandson."

I don’t even know whether I should believe it or not.

Judging simply from this letter, his attitude is worthy of belief.

But when you think about his position, you can't believe that a person like the head of the Zhu family would surrender.

After Zhou Xu thought for a while, he frowned and said, "It's a pity that he has already left Hand Witch City, otherwise the best way would be to call him over directly and have a chat in person."

"It is."

After Fang Jie finished speaking, Li Daoxuan smiled and said, "Don't worry, I will reply to him and he will come over."

"Brother Li, you mean...he didn't leave?!"

"Definitely not. He is an old fox. He has taken out all the chips at the bottom of the box. How can he leave without taking a gamble?"

"If I'm not mistaken, the person who sent the letter hasn't left yet?"

"The person who sent the letter is the man selling jujube cakes on our Huangliang Street..." Fang Jie replied.

As he spoke, Li Daoxuan pulled out a piece of white paper and wrote directly on it: "I will believe you when you come here."

After saying that, he didn't put it in an envelope and gave it to Fang Jie in a random pile.

"Just give this to the date cake seller."

"Ok!"

Fang Jie took the white paper, turned around and went out.

Just after tea time, Fang Jie came back with a boy carrying a food box.

As soon as they entered the house, Li Daoxuan and the others recognized who this boy was.

"Brother Zhu, why are you dressed like this after I haven't seen you for a few days?"

Li Daoxuan said with a haha.

Zhu Ye put the empty food box aside, took off the cloth tied above his head, and said with a wry smile: "Daoxuan, please stop teasing me."

Several people sat down separately, but Fang Jie and the others did not speak.

Li Daoxuan also reached out and knocked on the back of the chair. After a while, he finally said: "As usual, state the conclusion first and then ask why."

"Please tell me, Master Zhu, what you are going to do?"

What Li Daoxuan said was obviously completely different from what Zhu Ye had expected, so he was stunned.

But soon, Zhu Ye calmed down and organized his speech.

"I can manage Shou Wu City for you, Daoxuan, so that this huge city can be your help, not your drag."

"Besides... Daoxuan, don't blame me. To be honest, your strength and talent are indeed much stronger than mine, and you will only get stronger in the future. But you may not know as much about this world as I do, so I can collect and provide you with a lot of information for Daoxuan."

"Besides, the four of us are within the territory of this Divine Witch City. For example, there are layouts in the other cities. I can take care of these for you, Daoxuan."

"Others can definitely do these jobs, but I can guarantee that they can't do them as well as I can."

If you want others to believe in you, you must first believe in yourself.

So Zhu Ye was extremely confident when he said this.

After listening to this, Li Daoxuan asked: "Why do you have so much confidence in me?"

Zhu Ye smiled.

He finally got the question.

So he cleared his throat and told all the things that had happened that he had sorted out from historical books.

Among them are how the monsters emerged from the chaotic era.

There are also stories of how ancient aristocratic families and top grain eaters fell in this chaotic era.

Li Daoxuan listened a little casually at first, but when he heard what happened later, he couldn't help but sit up straight. Not only him, Zhou Xu, who didn't seem to care at first, also listened very seriously.

Even the ghost Bai Jun couldn't move at all.

It wasn't until about half an hour passed that Zhu Ye finished speaking bit by bit.

When he was speaking at first, Fang Jie listened casually, but when he finished speaking, Fang Jie had already taken the initiative to pour him tea.

Zhou Xu also looked at Li Daoxuan and said with a complex expression: "Master Zhu is a talented person."

Yes, he is a talent.

Li Daoxuan didn't expect that Zhu Ye could actually read history and reach this level.

He has really read all the history books of this era of peace and chaos. It is no wonder that the Zhu family has become the number one family in Shouwu City in his hands.

It's no wonder that he would surrender.

Because he has read all the ups and downs in history in history books.

"Yes, Master Zhu is really a talent."

Fang Jie also nodded vigorously.

Li Daoxuan still didn't rush to speak. If he spoke, it would mean he agreed. He tapped the armrest of the chair with his fingers.

Seeing this, Zhu Ye said again: "Because I have read so many books, I know that people like me cannot go very far in this era of peace and chaos."

"But Daoxuan, you are different. You two are the kind of people who can go a long way in this chaotic era."

"That's why I made this choice."

After hearing this, Li Daoxuan finally clasped his hands and said, "Since you, Master Zhu, are so sincere, it would be my fault if you hesitate any longer."

"It's not enough just to say you're sincere. You have to let us see your sincerity."

"I said that, do you understand?"

Li Daoxuan looked at him with bright eyes.

When Zhu Ye heard this, his expression instantly turned ugly. He was not stupid, so of course he could understand what Li Daoxuan meant.

"But...but I can't kill my ancestor."

When Li Daoxuan heard what he said, he couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth.

Who are these people, can they kill their own ancestors without any psychological burden?
Oh, me too... Li Daoxuan smiled and said: "Of course I won't embarrass you with this kind of thing, I just need you..."

Li Daoxuan leaned into Zhu Ye's ear and whispered softly.

Zhou Xu and the others sitting next to them also heard Li Daoxuan's plan clearly.

After Zhu Ye heard this, he only had one feeling. This guy seemed to be acting recklessly. How could he be so evil? ?
……

Old Ancestor Zhu drank the last sip of tea brought from home.

He has been walking in the mountains and forests for a day.

Not far in front of him was the Gu family's last escape team, led by a man named Gu Xia.

Old Ancestor Zhu felt that he had been very kind and actually let them live for another half day.

Of course, another reason why he had been holding back and not taking action was that the previous road was an upright and bright road.

Ancestor Zhu cherishes his face and would not do anything on the road.

But it's okay now. The Gu family and the others walked into the mountain trail.

Old Ancestor Zhu looked forward and murmured in his heart: "Are we going to Huaiyin Ghost Market?"

"Then it's no wonder we took this path."

Old Ancestor Zhu stopped and looked back.

Along the way, he felt like there was something following him several times, but he didn't see it when he turned around several times.

He also looked at things that track ghosts and evil spirits, but he didn't notice them.

He just thought he was suspicious.

After all, he found nothing.

Seeing that these grain eaters from the Gu family were about to cross a mountain river, Old Ancestor Zhu finally did not hesitate any longer.

His figure disappeared instantly.

But in the blink of an eye, the three or four grain eaters from the Gu family fell into the rushing river, and blood gushed out.

There was only the vague shadow of a big stick.

Only Gu Xia, who was walking in the front, was left.

She felt something and turned around in disbelief. All the Gu family members following her had disappeared.

What appeared next was a gray-haired old man.

There was a hint of despair in Gu Xia's eyes, "Is it the ancestor of the Zhu family or the ancestor of the Zheng family?"

Old Ancestor Zhu did not speak.

"Can you give me a way to survive?" Gu Xia begged.

"Ancestor, I can do whatever you want me to do..."

Old Ancestor Zhu shook his head slowly, "The elders in your family should have taught you the principle of cutting off the grass by removing the roots, right?"

Gu Xia still wanted to talk.

But an old right hand had already pinched her snow-white neck, and there was a "click".

A bright red dress bloomed on the river.

Old Ancestor Zhu weighed the several shroud ghosts in his hand and put them all into his own Sumeru.

"Don't blame me. If you want to blame, blame the world."

After he finished speaking, he was about to turn around, but he found a sharp pain in his right leg, which made him turn pale and almost fall down.

The next moment, he heard a slight sound.

It was as if someone stepped on the water and came behind him.

A soft voice rang in his ears.

"Separate... corpses!"
