My path to immortality began with my posting to guard Dawancun.

Chapter 119 Concealment
The initial joy that had arisen after slaying the enemy quickly dissipated.

Shen Changchuan could almost imagine it.
Once you become famous
The news spread,

The message was sent back to the Shen family compound.

This will cause me a lot of trouble!

That first wife is no pushover!
"Uh, young friend Shen, what's wrong?"

Seeing that Shen Changchuan's expression seemed a little off, Si Houqing quickly realized what was wrong and asked.

"Um, Manager Si, could you possibly keep the details of this battle a secret?"

"Why?"

Si Houqing was somewhat stunned.

Shouldn't a fifteen-year-old be full of vigor and want to make a name for himself every day?

What young person doesn't like a good reputation?
"Alas, this matter is somewhat complicated. The main problem is that Shen is not without enemies within his family."

"Becoming famous is indeed a good thing, but it's hard to resist the envy of others!"

Shen Changchuan sighed and said in a somewhat indistinct tone.

He didn't elaborate.

In fact,
Unless he makes things up or someone he knows leaks it, his identity is unlikely to be known by outsiders.

Especially in such remote and desolate places.

The entire Shen clan of Tiannan has tens of thousands of cultivators.
Unless one has a complete list of all cultivators in the Shen family, it would be difficult for outsiders to find out.

Moreover, he has always been extremely low-key. Not to mention outsiders, even within the family, not many people know him or that he is the illegitimate son of the Shen clan patriarch.

The Wu family knew this because
It's probably related to Shen Zhongshan and his group.

After all, Shen Cunrui was in their team.

They are naturally aware of their own identity.

But in a way, this is a good thing.

At least it made Wu Yuanzhi, the head of the Wu family, wary and dare not easily attack me, which led to the Biyuan Jingling Pill falling into my hands.

But no matter what,
Unless he deliberately reveals himself, his identity will only be known within a very small high-level circle.

Therefore, Shen Changchuan doesn't need to worry about Si Houqing being able to guess anything.

Internal family struggles

This kind of thing happens all the time.

Families without internal strife are extremely rare.

With Si Houqing's extensive experience and knowledge gained from traveling all over the country, he should be able to find similar cases.

And that is indeed the case.

After Shen Changchuan explained it this way, Si Houqing quickly understood.

His expression also became solemn.

This kind of thing
Not uncommon.

Not to mention a large family like the Shen family of Tiannan, even some small cultivation families and even the powerful clans of mortals have never lacked struggles!
Sometimes even some families' genius seeds,

They could all be sabotaged and destroyed by someone.

After all, for some people, your growth into a genius might be a good thing for the family.

But it might not be a good thing for me, because you're blocking my way, or if you grow up, you'll definitely infringe on my interests.

What belongs to the family belongs to the family, and what belongs to one's own family belongs to one's own family.

As long as people have selfish desires.

Internal strife is inevitable.

Also because of this,

While outstanding performance can sometimes be a good thing, potentially leading to investment from the family.

But sometimes it can be a bad thing.

Because you never know when someone jealous of you might stab you in the back.

perhaps,

This young friend Shen Changchuan has a grudge against some powerful figures within the family due to certain conflicts of interest.
Unfortunately, he lacked powerful backing within his family.

That's probably why I discussed with myself not to spread it around.

In a flash,

Si Houqing imagined many things.

"Don't worry, young friend Shen, I, Si, will definitely not leak this matter easily!"

Si Houqing gave an affirmative answer.

However, at the same time,

He thought about it for a moment.
However, he then offered the following suggestion:
"However, although I will not reveal the details of this matter to anyone, I do have some insights into it."

After careful discussion,
Shen Changchuan eventually changed his mind.

First of all,

The fact that the Blood Slaughtering Three Demons attacked but died in Dawan Village is something that cannot be kept secret forever.

Rather than letting the outside world speculate wildly and spread rumors everywhere,

We cannot yet take the initiative.

Secondly,

If the news gets out, it will definitely bring a lot of benefits.

Don't say anything else,

With the corpses of the three demons serving as a warning, even if this remote and desolate land becomes chaotic in the future, few people will dare to covet Dawan Village again.

Moreover, the news will greatly benefit the business operations in the eastern part of the village in the near future, making it easier to attract other businesses to set up shop and thus generate substantial profits.

of course,

These are just some of the reasons.

What truly made Shen Changchuan make up his mind was Si Houqing's suggestion to modify the process of killing the Three Blood Demons.

It probably means,
The reason they were able to kill the Blood Slaughter Three Demons this time was because they had discovered in advance that someone was going to attack Dawan Village, so they set a trap in advance to ambush the Blood Slaughter Three Demons.

For this reason, Shen Changchuan also used his connections within the Shen family to invite some helpers who were at the late stage of Qi Refining.

Finally, they were able to kill the Three Blood Demons.

In this case,
The news spread,

Shen Changchuan was able to enjoy the benefits of slaying the Three Blood Demons.

This would also avoid provoking the First Lady, who lives far away in Tiannan City.

Such great benefits,
Shen Changchuan naturally stopped refusing.

So the next day, not long after dawn...
The corpses of the three Blood Demons were hung on a pillar at the entrance of the village.

Shen Changchuan had originally thought that although these people came to kill him,
But considering the spoils they left behind, and the debts being settled after their deaths, it's best to just burn them and bury them in a hole.

However, subsequently,

After briefly inquiring from Si Houqing about the origins of the Blood Fiend Gourd and the specific circumstances of the Three Blood Demons,

He actually felt that the three of them died too easily.

He then instructed his maternal grandfather, Han Qinhu, to hang the body on a pillar to air dry.

These beasts,

They are not worthy of being buried in peace.

Let them stand there exposed to the sun and rain.

Although this would have little effect on punishing them, who were already dead.

But let them make the most of their remaining energy.
It would be good to deter those outsiders with ill intentions.

As for the storage bags that the Blood Slaughter Three Demons carried with them...
Considering that Si Houqing had also participated in the battle and played a significant role, Shen Changchuan discussed with Si Houqing about dividing the spoils of war.

However, Si Houqing directly rejected this offer.

He said that his contribution in this battle was negligible.

The three people on the other side were all killed by Shen Changchuan.
Without Shen Changchuan, let alone any spoils of war, it would be questionable whether he would even survive. What right would he have to share in these spoils?
Despite Si Houqing's firm refusal,
Shen Changchuan had no choice but to accept all the spoils of war.
