Daming: After self-explosive time travel, Lao Zhu's mentality collapsed

Memories of ten years ago came flooding back like a tide, and Chu Ze's face turned from shock to pale, and then from pale to anger. Ten years ago, he was still the crown prince, and was ordered to quell the rebellion in Southern Xinjiang. The King of Southern Xinjiang resisted stubbornly, but was eventually slaughtered after the city was broken. And this man in black was the only son of the King of Southern Xinjiang, that is... his own brother! Chu Ze had always thought that he had died in the battle, but he didn't expect that he actually survived and endured for ten years just for revenge.

"I... I don't remember." Chu Ze's voice trembled a little. He tried to keep calm, but his heart was in turmoil.

The man in black, or rather, the prince of Southern Xinjiang, named Chu Yuan, sneered, his eyes full of mockery. "Don't remember? Haha, of course you don't remember! You are so high up, how can you remember those ants you stepped on? You slaughtered my entire family and took my kingdom, but now you say you don't remember? Chu Ze, you have such a cruel heart!"

Chu Yuan's voice was hoarse and angry, and every word was like a sharp knife, piercing Chu Ze's heart. He had never thought that he would commit such a heinous crime. He always thought that he was a wise monarch, but he didn't expect that in the eyes of others, he was actually an executioner!

"I... I was just following orders at that time..." Chu Ze tried to explain, but found that any explanation was pale and powerless.

“Following orders? What a true follow-up! Don’t you have your own judgment? Can’t you show some mercy?” Chu Yuan pressed on step by step, his tone becoming more and more excited.

Chu Ze was silent. He had nothing to say. Indeed, he could have shown mercy at that time, but he didn't. In order to establish his career and consolidate his position, he chose to be cold-blooded and ruthless.

"Where's Xiaotao? Hand her over!" Chu Yuan suddenly shouted, with a hint of ruthlessness in his eyes.

Chu Ze's heart sank suddenly. He thought of Xiao Tao, her gentleness, and her kindness. He would never let Chu Yuan hurt her!
"What do you want to do?" Chu Ze asked vigilantly.

"An eye for an eye, blood for blood!" Chu Yuan gnashed his teeth and said, "You took away my most precious thing, now, I will also take away your most precious thing!"

Chu Ze's face turned pale instantly. He knew what Chu Yuan was referring to. Xiao Tao was his most precious person and an indispensable part of his life. He would never let anyone hurt her!

"Don't even think about it!" Chu Ze roared, his eyes full of murderous intent.

“Then let’s see if you have the ability to do it!” Chu Yuan sneered, and his figure flashed and disappeared into the woods.

Chu Ze hurriedly chased after her, he knew that this was a life-and-death battle. He not only had to protect Xiao Tao, but also his country and his people!
In the maple forest, the shadows of the trees were dancing, and the air was filled with murderous intent. Chu Ze and Chu Yuan started a fierce fight. Chu Ze was a martial arts master, invincible in the world, but Chu Yuan was no ordinary man. He had practiced hard for ten years, and his martial arts skills were advanced, and every move was deadly.

The two men fought back and forth, punching and kicking each other, making bursts of air-breaking sounds. Maple leaves fell, like blood splattering.

Chu Ze became more and more frightened as he fought more and more. He found that Chu Yuan's martial arts were so powerful that he even had a tendency to surpass him. He couldn't help but wonder: What on earth had Chu Yuan experienced in the past ten years?
"Ah!" With a scream, Chu Ze's shoulder was scratched by Chu Yuan's sword, and the blood instantly dyed his clothes red.

Chu Ze groaned, endured the pain, and continued to fight. He knew that he couldn't fall down, he still had a lot of things to do.

“Chu Ze, you are no longer the same person you were ten years ago!” Chu Yuan taunted as he attacked, “Your martial arts skills have declined, and your heart has become soft!”

Chu Ze ignored Chu Yuan's ridicule. He focused on fighting and looking for an opportunity to counterattack.

Suddenly, Chu Ze had an idea, and he remembered a long-lost sword technique. This sword technique was extremely powerful, but he had never used it in actual combat.

"Try this!" Chu Ze shouted and used the long-lost sword technique.

The sword light flashed, like a silver snake dancing wildly, instantly enveloping Chu Yuan. Chu Yuan was caught off guard and was injured by the sword energy, retreating repeatedly. "What kind of sword technique is this?" Chu Yuan asked in horror.

"This is the sword technique I created myself!" Chu Ze sneered, his eyes full of confidence.

Chu Ze pursued the opponent with his swordsmanship, which was as smooth as flowing water. Chu Yuan was gradually unable to resist and was injured in many places.

“You…you actually…” Chu Yuan’s tone was filled with reluctance and despair.

"I have said that I will definitely protect Xiaotao and will not let anyone hurt her!" Chu Ze's tone was firm and resolute.

The sword flashed, and Chu Yuan's chest was pierced by Chu Ze's sword. He widened his eyes, filled with resentment and resentment.

"You...you..." Chu Yuan wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't say it.

He slowly fell to the ground, his blood staining the maple leaves red.

Chu Ze looked at Chu Yuan lying on the ground, feeling mixed emotions. He won, but he was not happy at all. He killed his own brother, how could he face this?

Suddenly, there was a sound of hurried footsteps. Chu Ze looked back and saw Xiao Tao running towards him.

"Chu Ze, are you okay?" Xiao Tao asked anxiously, her eyes full of concern.

Chu Ze looked at Xiao Tao, and a warm feeling surged in his heart. He opened his arms and hugged Xiao Tao tightly.

"I'm fine, I'm fine." Chu Ze's voice was a little choked.

Xiaotao hugged Chuze tightly, feeling the warmth from him, and her heart was filled with a sense of security.

"Chu Ze, let's go back." Xiao Tao said softly.

Chu Ze nodded, took Xiao Tao's hand, and left the maple forest.

Maple leaves fell, like blood. This tragedy of brothers killing each other ended with Chu Yuan's death. But Chu Ze's heart was full of pain and confusion. He didn't know what his future would be like? He didn't know how to face this cruel reality?

Chu Ze loosened his embrace, and Xiao Tao took a step back, lowering her head, twisting the corners of her clothes nervously with her hands. The sweet smell of maple leaves filled the air. Xiao Tao didn't dare to look at Chu Yuan's body, and she felt her stomach churning. Chu Ze noticed her discomfort, reached out and gently stroked her back, his tone gentle but with a hint of imperceptible fatigue: "I'll take you back to the palace."

Xiao Tao nodded gently, letting Chu Ze lead her, and walked away step by step on the fallen leaves. Along the way, the two of them were silent, and the atmosphere was so depressing that it was suffocating.

After returning to the palace, Xiao Tao went straight back to her bedroom, locked herself in the room, and faced the sudden fear and anxiety alone. She didn't understand why Chu Ze wanted to kill Chu Yuan? Why were brothers so cruel to each other? She didn't understand what Chu Ze meant by "protection"? (End of this chapter)
