Chen Han spoke calmly.

At this moment, Zhao Tieshan stood before him, his legs weak and his fists trembling.

He could already sense that, despite both being martial artists at the Transformation Realm, he was no match for this person.

"This is terrifying! This person's punching power and qi are truly terrifying. It's unheard of even among those at the highest level of internal energy cultivation. And his bones and muscles—are they made of iron?"

Zhao Tieshan even began to doubt his own existence. This person was not just a martial artist at the Transformation Realm; his true strength was probably at the level of a martial artist.

"Do you know that my master is nearby? If you dare to kill him..."

Before Zhao Tieshan could utter his threatening words, Chen Han appeared before him, a fist rapidly enlarging in his eyes.

The next moment, Zhao Tieshan was blasted to death!

"Since your master is nearby, I'll have to shut you up quickly."

Chen Han waved his hand dismissively and looked at the last person, He Yegou.

The reason this person is still alive is entirely because Chen Han held back.

He had already seen through the man's cowardly nature, so he spared his life to question him.

Feeling the crazed gaze fixed on him, He Yegou shuddered and immediately knelt down. Zhao Tieshan had already been beaten to death; how could he dare to act recklessly?

"Grandpa, please don't kill me, please don't kill me... I'll give you anything you want, except my life..."

Feeling threatened by death, He Yegou could barely speak, his crotch was soaked, and the smell of urine filled the air.

Chen Han looked disgusted. He had to admit that this was the first time he had ever met someone in this line of work who was so afraid of dying.

"I'll ask a question, and you answer it, understand?"

He Yegou nodded repeatedly, his voice trembling, "I understand, I understand."

"What are you all doing here?"

"I have been ordered by my superior to come and surround the remnants of the Chen family."

Remnants of the Chen family?

A dark cloud suddenly rose in Chen Han's eyes, and he asked in a cold voice, "Tell me the whole story from beginning to end."

"Grandpa, I don't know much, please forgive me. It's like this, recently the Chen family has been short of martial arts training resources, so we gathered most of the family members here to hunt beasts in the wilderness."

We are sworn enemies with the Chen family, and we certainly won't miss this opportunity.

"After that, I was ordered to come here to ambush the remnants of the Chen family, and then I knew nothing more."

After He Yegou finished speaking, he seemed to suddenly realize something, and then said...

"By the way, I also know that some of the gang members were responsible for luring the Red Spiders to surround the Chen family. They probably wanted to use the Red Spiders to destroy them, and then we would wipe them out."

Chen Han's expression changed, and he thought to himself, "Those elders of the Chen family are always meticulous in their actions. Coming to such a desolate place to hunt beasts, they naturally suspect that hostile forces might take the opportunity to retaliate, hence their concealment."

The wilderness is vast, spanning thousands of miles. If the Black Mountain Gang wanted to find them, and plan and execute a route to attract the Red Spiders in advance, the difficulty would undoubtedly be enormous.

Furthermore, there's simply not enough time. The red spiders live deep in the wilderness, and it would take at least ten days to attract them. It's not that easy.

Thinking of this, Chen Han frowned slightly. 'If that's the case, then only one possibility remains—a high-ranking member of the Chen family has betrayed us!'

The hunting routes and rest stops were planned in advance, and no one except the few high-ranking officials who discussed the matter knew about them.

The fact that the Black Mountain Gang was able to lure Red Spider to the Chen family's stronghold in such a short time means that the traitorous high-ranking member had leaked this information beforehand, giving the Black Mountain Gang time to make their plans.

Chen Han's mind raced, and he quickly analyzed the ins and outs of the matter.

"Grandpa, I've told you everything I know. Please let me go."

Chen Han smiled coldly, "Fine, but not now. Where is the Chen family camp? Lead the way."

Chen Han didn't want to get involved in this matter, and now that things had come to this point, he couldn't control it anymore; he might even lose his life.

However, since Shen Yue has learned martial arts, she might also be in a hunting party. Others could leave without a care, but Shen Yue couldn't, absolutely not.

Meanwhile, at Chen Family Camp, the camp was in complete chaos, with only Chen Qiuyang in charge.

At this moment, in the darkness outside the camp, swarms of ferocious red spiders had completely surrounded the Chen family camp, their countless blood-red eyes particularly eerie.

Large numbers of red spiders rushed in, eager to devour their meal.

"Listen up, all of you! Break out to the south!"

Chen Qiuyang roared, and everyone followed the flow of people southward. They knew that if they didn't fight, they would die, and they ran faster than each other, carving a bloody path through the beast tide.

Finally, there were no more red spiders blocking their way, and they didn't have many men left.

The once mighty army is now reduced to a few remnants. Two of the three elders are missing, and the only one who was with them has lost an arm and is also suffering from a deadly poison.

The rest, the older generation is fine, they have rich combat experience and are not seriously injured, but the younger generation is in a bad situation. Only about 10% are still here, the others are either dead or not fast enough and have become trapped beasts in a cage.

Looking at the despair on his clansmen's faces, Chen Qiuyang understood that the clan was likely doomed from this devastating blow.

"Let's go back to the city."

He reluctantly gave the order, even though many of his people were still alive within the Red Spider's encirclement, they were powerless to do anything about it.

Where there is life, there is hope.

······

On the other side, "Boy, I've given you your only way out. Whether you live or die is up to you."

The aged Chen Shanhe stood with his hands behind his back and spoke in a booming voice. In front of him was a group of Chen family members who were unable to escape, including teenagers, girls and fierce men.

Without exception, they were all seriously injured and no longer able to fight.

Behind Chen Shanhe were dozens of martial artists with gleaming eyes and imposing demeanor, including his trusted confidant who had reached the Transformation Realm.

These were the small forces he secretly organized, and also part of the capital that enabled him to plot a rebellion.

In front of everyone, Chen Lei remained unmoved by the olive branch offered by Chen Shanhe. He was an upright and honest man, how could he bear such a shameful reputation for fear of death?

"Elders of the land, I, Chen Leisheng, am a member of the Chen family, and I will die as a ghost of the Chen family. A true man is born between heaven and earth; how can I, with my eight-foot frame, live below others and betray my promise?"

"I'm not going with you. Come on, either kill me or I'll take the person away."

Chen Shanhe shook his head helplessly, a look of regret on his face. "Chen Lei, don't you understand? The family is not a good place at all."

"If you stay with the family, you lose your own identity. Everything you do is controlled by the family's will. You will dedicate your entire life to the family without any choice in the matter. This is a common problem that families cannot avoid."

If the ruler demands the death of the prime minister, the prime minister has no choice but to die.
