"Ninth brother?!"
Chu Liechu lifted his helmet visor, revealing a handsome face.
Chu Zhiyuan stepped down from the boulder, coming to him: "Big brother, it's been a hard journey for you."
He nodded at the four middle-aged men, expressing his gratitude.
The position of the venerables is unusual both in the Martial Arts world and within the Court.
These four were evidently tributes.
The four men cupped their fists in a gesture of respect, and stepped aside.
Chu Liechu said, "It wasn't too difficult... we should have arrived at the Phoenix Imperial City last night."
Due to a demon clan ambush and a hard fight, they had to rearrange and deal with the aftermath of six Imperial Guards, which delayed their journey by half a day.
Chu Zhiyuan asked, "Big brother, did you manage to obtain any items from the attackers?"
"What do you intend to do with them?"
"Naturally, to track down the murderers!" Chu Zhiyuan slowly replied, "They killed our people, how can we let them roam free?"
