Traveling Through the Grave Robbers' Chronicles: Starting from Meeting You

After Zhang Qiling pressed the trigger, all the bookshelves in the library began to move rapidly, and the bronze bells hidden everywhere suddenly rang.

"Cover your ears and stay awake."

He let out a soft roar, and everyone covered their ears tightly, trying their best to resist the temptation and pull of the bronze bell.

The piercing sound of the bronze bells was too strong. Even though all of them had tried their best and put in all their efforts, in the end, they still fell to the ground one after another and fell into the illusion.

Xie Yuchen opened his eyes again and found that he was standing on the stage in the backyard of Xie's house. The huge courtyard was empty except for him.

"Boss, what are you doing standing here alone? Come down quickly. The stage is too high. What if you fall?"

He looked down and saw that the man was none other than Xie Qian, the steward of the Xie family. He was standing under the stage with a worried look on his face, stretching out his arms, wanting to pick up Xie Yuchen.

Xie Yuchen looked at Xie Qian who appeared out of nowhere and was full of confusion. He saw it clearly just now that Xie Qian did appear in front of him suddenly.

He took two steps forward, squatted down and stared at Jie Qian's face.

Xie Qian has been the steward of the Xie family for many years. He was a confidant personally trained by Xie Jiuye when he was alive. Everyone in the Xie family knows him.

Ever since Master Xie Jiu passed away, Xie Qian has devoted all his energy to taking care of Xie Yuchen, helping the young boy to manage all the affairs of the Xie family.

Later, Xie Qian was killed by the rebels of the Xie family, and the only support left by Xie Jiuye for Xie Yuchen was also buried by a handful of yellow earth.

From then on, he became completely isolated and helpless in the Xie family.

Xie Yuchen squatted at the edge of the stage and stretched out his hand to Xie Qian, who immediately hugged him with a smile.

Xie Qian's embrace was still as warm as Xie Yuchen remembered, just as before, making him greedy.

When Xie Qian gently put him on the ground, Xie Yuchen realized that he was much shorter than Xie Qian.

His body shape now is no different from when he was eight years old.

"Master, let's go back. Your uncles are still waiting for you in the lobby. Wait, no matter what they say, don't listen. Just treat it as if they are farting.

Everything will be taken care of by this old guy like me. Anyway, I'm old and my body is already buried up to my mouth. I'm not afraid of anything.

What I fear most is that I will die before you grow up. Who will protect you then? "

Xie Qian talked to himself earnestly, and when he looked at Xie Yuchen, his eyes were full of reluctance and worry.

Xie Yuchen looked up at him. Xie Qian's hair and beard had turned white, and his face was full of wrinkles. He was now nearly eighty years old.

"Don't worry, I can protect myself."

I'm just sorry, I was too young at that time and didn't have the ability to protect you.

"Well, that's good. The head of the family is Jiu Ye's grandson, so his abilities are naturally not much different from Jiu Ye's. It's just that you have to suffer."

Amid Xie Qian's sigh, Xie Yuchen walked into the Xie family's meeting hall. Several uncles and their men were sitting there in a domineering manner, and when they saw him, they all looked at him with disdain.

"Hey, the head of the family has just taken the position of the head of the family, and he doesn't take us uncles and aunts seriously?

They left us in the hall for so long, and none of the servants had a clue, not even bringing us a cup of tea."

The servants standing everywhere lowered their heads, looked at their noses, and pretended not to hear anything.

These relatives of the Xie family do not take the young head of the family seriously. The Xie family is suppressed by Xie Qian, so they do not have the courage to do so.

Xie Yuchen's gaze swept coldly across the face of the person who was shouting. He strolled to the seat at the top and sat down. With a wave of his hand, exquisite pastries and tea were immediately placed in front of him.

"Grandpa has just left, and the uncles are here to make noises. What does that mean? Do you want to rebel?"

His voice was cold and sharp, like ice that had not melted for ten thousand years, bursting with undisguised murderous intent.

The Jie family members who came to cause trouble looked at each other in confusion. They didn't understand how the person in front of them could have such a strong deterrent effect with his words when the person was clearly an eight-year-old kid.

"Stop yelling at us here. We are here to ask you to give up the position of the head of the family and replace it with someone who is capable and obedient."

Xie Yuchen listened to what the leader said and a faint sneer appeared on his lips.

This scene is so similar to the one after the death of Huo Xiangu, when those people in the Huo family forced Huo Xiuxiu to give up the position of head of the family.

"What if I say no?"

As soon as he finished speaking, before anyone in the hall could say anything in response, the blade, shining with a cold light, pierced into the chest of the leader.

The white knife goes in and the red knife comes out.

Xie Yuchen acted quickly and ruthlessly. The tip of the knife flipped a circle, and the man's beating heart suddenly shattered. He fell heavily to the ground, and stopped breathing with a look of unwillingness in his eyes.

Until his death, he probably never understood how Xie Yuchen, who was only eight years old, dared to draw a knife against him and kill him.

He had no idea that Xie Yuchen in front of him had a soul of a man in his twenties under his eight-year-old body.

He had experienced the affairs of the Xie family once before, and now, dealing with these uncles again was a piece of cake for him.

What followed was a one-sided massacre. Xie Yuchen killed all the uncles and aunts who opposed him in the hall with one sword.

The strong smell of blood wafted through the hall, making people feel nauseous.

Xie Qian stared in amazement at Xie Yuchen, whose body was covered in blood. In the eyes of everyone in the Xie family, he now looked like a Shura who had returned from hell.

Xie Yuchen looked around, threw away the bloody long knife in his hand, took out the handkerchief he carried with him, and casually wiped the blood stains on his hands.

"Clean up and send their bodies to various halls for everyone to see."

He left after he finished speaking, his small figure emitting a powerful aura.

"Yes."

Xie Qian belatedly agreed and ordered the Xie family's servants to clean up the bodies in the hall and transport them to the various branches of the Xie family to deter those who were preparing to make moves behind the scenes.

After Xie Yuchen dealt with the uncles and uncles who took the lead, the Xie family, which had been turbulent, fell into an eerily calm atmosphere.

Everyone was terrified of this new young master.

They didn't even dare to think that Xie Yuchen dared to kill even his own uncles and aunts. They, as outsiders, who opposed him, would have a miserable end.

On the tenth day after Xie Yuchen became the head of the family, he sat alone on the bed, looking at the bright moon outside the window, waiting for his old friend to return.

His eyes were fixed on the closed door, looking forward to the moment when it would be opened.

He waited and waited until the sky grew brighter and the bright moon disappeared, but the person he wanted to see never showed up.

"Sister, why didn't you come?"

While Xie Yuchen was muttering to himself, Xie Qian pushed the door open and walked in. At that moment, Xie Qian saw a deep joy in Xie Yuchen's eyes.

That touch of joy disappeared in the blink of an eye the moment I saw him, as if it had never appeared.

"Boss, are you waiting for someone?"

Xie Yuchen looked up at Xie Qian, concealing the disappointment in his eyes and remained silent.

He looked at the rising sun outside the window, and suddenly remembered everything he saw in the illusion after eating poisonous mushrooms in Yu Village.
