The abandoned cannon fodder girl's path to immortality

Chapter 199 Memorial
"Clan leader, save me! Ancestor, save me!"

The speaker was none other than Chen Zhiyuan, the team leader who led the team that day and the one with the highest cultivation level. He was not very talented, possessing five spiritual roots, and was still only at the seventh level of Qi Refining.

The First Elder and Chen Qiaozhen exchanged glances of disgust.

They have the nerve to beg for forgiveness for the things they've done; such people deserve to die.

"I have entrusted all of you to Jinshu's disposal."

After finishing her sentence, Chen Qiaozhen left the spot.

Before leaving, he left a message for his father, the new clan chief.

"Regarding Jinshu, let her handle it as she sees fit. If you dare to obstruct her, don't blame me for no longer protecting the Chen family. Furthermore, the Chen family's clan rules must be revised."

"Alright!" The clan leader's expression turned terrified. Now, when facing the Foundation Establishment daughter, he felt an unconscious sense of obedience.

"Elders, if you were also involved in this matter, then admit it. If Jinshu finds out, your generation will be expelled! We, the Chen family, dare not keep these nine people either; their descendants, children, and elders will all be expelled from the Chen family."

After the clan chief finished speaking, he stopped talking and looked at Chen Jinshu, hoping to satisfy him.

Chen Jinshu was naturally dissatisfied and didn't say anything, leaving her with several murderers to figure out what was going on.

"You'd better tell the truth! How many people do you want to harm?" the elders shouted at the nine people.

“My elder brother was exceptionally talented back then, and we thought he wanted to hone his skills, so we didn’t expose him.”

"You deserve to die!" Upon hearing this, Chen Jinshu swung his sword and slit the other man's throat.

A bright red line of blood shot high into the air, staining the entire lobby floor red.

The people around were so startled that they all scattered and ran away.

"If I hear such excuses again, go down to see my father."

"And don't even think about leaving the main hall. I've already reached the Foundation Establishment stage; if you don't want to die, stay put."

"How many of you are there?"

One of the Chen family disciples, who was fairly fair-skinned, knelt down before Chen Jinshu and said, "Back then, I was forced by Chen Zhiyuan and dared not speak out. But I have always been in great pain keeping it to myself. I dare not ask for your forgiveness, but I only hope that you can spare my two children for the sake of our shared Chen bloodline."

"Knock knock knock!" A series of kneeling and begging sounds echoed throughout the hall. The other offenders also kowtowed, and blood quickly streamed down their foreheads.

"Beg for mercy? What a joke! What do you say, Mother?"

"Shu'er, you can make the decision."

"That's good! I'm not willing to let these people get away with making more enemies. They've developed bad habits, and their descendants will likely be the same. Consider it a way of ridding others of a scourge."

She interrogated him a few more times, but the truth she gleaned was ultimately scarce.

However, she did hear an unexpected name: the third elder of the Chen family knew about her father's past but chose to keep it a secret because one of them was her father's cousin.

"Third Elder! You usually handle things fairly. Why is it that you become so indifferent when it comes to my father?" Chen Jinshu said with a mocking tone.

"Or do you think my father deserved to die?"

"I didn't. It was indeed my fault. I did learn the truth from that kid back then, but I was concerned about my brother's reputation..."

Chen Jinshu's anger flared up, and he raised his hand to stab the Frost Sword directly at the Third Elder's dantian.

"Face! Is your face more important than my father's life? How ridiculous!" "Bring the Third Elder's family, along with these nine people and their families, all here," Chen Jinshu said to the clan leader.

"it is good!"

After Chen Jinshu finished speaking, he raised his hand and slashed at the necks of the remaining eight people. Several lines of blood spurted out, and all the elders turned ashen-faced, not daring to breathe.

"Shu'er, won't this affect your temperament?" Wu Shuya asked with some concern.

"No. I'm clearing away the inner demons in advance so I can transcend the tribulation and reach the Golden Core stage later. How could it have any impact?" Chen Jinshu shook her head. Her mind was much clearer after dealing with Chen Wenshan, but some lingering emotions remained.

She figured it was because she still had entanglements with the Chen family, and now that she had resolved everything, she could clear her mind so she could focus on her cultivation in the future.

"That's good! Leave the rest of these people to Second Uncle to deal with. It's not good for you to kill too many people!" Chen Wentan said immediately upon hearing this.

"Alright. We'll leave the rest of these people to Second Uncle to deal with."

Chen Jinshu did not refuse upon hearing this. Killing too many people would have a slight impact on her, and she might have to face it again when she goes through her inner demon tribulation in the future. However, she had a clear conscience towards these people, so she was naturally not worried.

Soon, the clan chief, along with several other clan chiefs, emptied the coffers of the nine people, along with all their family wealth, including everyone from the branch of the third elder.

An hour later, the matter was finally resolved.

Chen Jinshu entrusted the handling of the relatives of the nine people to his second uncle, thinking that he would show them some pity.

But Chen Jinshu was surprised when her second uncle, Chen Wentan, killed them all. She even saw approval in Ning Lingwei's eyes.

Indeed, coming from a large family, one has a long-term vision.

These people might know some inside information, and now that their boss or children are dead, the younger ones might seek revenge in the future.

Instead of waiting for a tit-for-tat response to stop it, it would be better to nip it in the bud.

After finishing these tasks, Chen Jinshu and the others brought the corpses to the grave of their father, Chen Wen'an, to pay their respects.

Chen Jinshu placed Chen Wenshan's head in the center of the tomb, while the remaining corpses were placed behind it.

"Father! Jinshu has avenged you. I hope you can rest in peace in the afterlife!" Chen Jinshu bowed to her father.

"Jinshu has really made something of herself now. Not only has she become a disciple of a Golden Core Elder, but she has also become a Foundation Establishment cultivator. I'll be enjoying the good life with my daughter from now on!"

Wu Shuya looked heartbroken. Although Chen Wen'an had been dead for many years, she still remembered her husband's face very clearly. This was probably the curse that cultivators could never escape.

With a strong memory, the faces of those who have passed away are forever buried deep in my heart, and every time I recall them, I feel a pang of sorrow and longing.

"Big brother! I will definitely protect Jinshu and sister-in-law well." Chen Wentan's eyes were also a little bloodshot.

The group then piled the bodies of the Chen family members into a small mountain and immediately set it on fire.

The smoke from the burning fire turned into thick black smoke, which drifted upwards into the sky.

At that moment, Chen Jinshu felt as if his mind had been purified, and he felt exceptionally comfortable.

Seeing this from a hundred miles away, Chen Qiaozhen sighed and looked towards the Chen family with a hint of disappointment.

She was also a victim of her family during those years, but she was much luckier than Chen Jinshu.

"The Chen family is not a place I can stay for long!"
