Chapter 10 – Every Day the Protagonist Wants to Capture Me Auction Venue
The Chu family has three Di sons.1 Chu Yu is the third one. The second brother died early and the one in front of him right now is his eldest brother, Chu Sheng.
Based on the original Chu Yu's memories, Chu Sheng is warm and extremely devoted and indulgent towards his younger brother. Chu Yu also likes his eldest brother, so they are very close.
Hearing Chu Yu's question, Chu Sheng smiled: "While I was travelling these past three months. I passed by Jiao Xia and wanted to go to Tian Yuan sect to see you. I heard there that some monsters were causing mischief here so I wanted to eliminate them first. I didn't think that I would meet you here."
After explaining, he blinked and said, "How has my little brother been these past few months?"
Not too well.
In his heart Chu Yu lamented his fate but he was able to squeeze out a smile: "Everything is fine."
… If I remember correctly, the eldest brother who spoiled the original owner of this body had a bad end. The protagonist cut off his head with a sword and hung it in the Chu family's home which is in front of the Maple Valley.
After all, the escalation plot of a "weak to strong" upgrade2 stallion3 would usually involve the cutting down of large/major targets. It would be out of the question if the protagonist did not get rid of him in the end.
Chu Yu's wild and unrestrained behavior had been indulged4 by his elders and his death was just the opening act while Chu Sheng's revenge was the main show. When Chu Sheng heard that Chu Yu died, Chu Sheng rushed over to avenge him but he did not expect to be unable to even get close to the edge of the protagonist’s clothing before he was killed.
If he doesn't die like the original Chu Yu, then Chu Sheng’s sorry fate should not be so miserable …
Chu Sheng nodded genially then his face showed surprise when he noticed Xie Xi who was sitting quite closely beside Chu Yu, clutching his sleeve.
He had often gone to Yuan Chen Peak to visit Chu Yu, so of course he knew that this was the young boy that Chu Yuhad taken the lead in bullying. Although he didn't like it, after all the boy is not one of his people and in addition Chu Yu is his younger brother. He did not understand this situation so Chu Sheng just ordered Chu Yu not to go overboard.
At that time, Chu Yu’s expression was of utmost disgust, as though he loathed Xie Xi. How did these two people become so intimate after just a few months?
Not to mention, Chu Yu is a neat freak who doesn't like to be touched. In the past, Chu Yu had already flung this little guy several feet away from him.
Chu Yu noticed that Chu Sheng was looking at him suspiciously. He coughed lightly, looked at the quiet and clever Xie Xi, who was snuggling next to him, and introduced Xie Xi: "Eldest brother, this is my Xiao Shidi, Xie Xi."
Of course, he remembered that Chu Sheng knew about Xie Xi's existence.
In the past Xie Xi was the "trash" that everyone bullied and insulted but now he was solemnly introduced to Chu Sheng. This was his way of telling Chu Sheng that matters are different now, that Chu Yu has already acknowledged Xie Xi.
When Xie Xi heard Chu Yu's words, his eyes lit up and a happy expression flitted over his face.
As long as Chu Yu is happy that they are more intimate now, that is good.
Chu Sheng did not care much and just nodded.
"Little brother, you just said ‘it's a pity,’ what did you mean?"
You still want to talk about that?
Chu Yu was in a quandary. He didn't want to tell Chu Sheng that he had taken on a dangerous task to polish his fighting skills. He said: "It's a pity that the group of water demons will not all leave the water at the same time. To go underwater to eliminate all of those water demons will require a high level of cultivation…" Chu Yu stared at Chu Sheng, his eyes shining.
He seems to remember that Chu Sheng is now in the Foundation Building late stage?
Looking at Chu Yu shining eyes, Chu Sheng smiled and shook his head.
"Brother, I can’t go underwater."
Chu Yu was stunned for a moment and then he remembered why that was impossible.
Chu Sheng's spiritual energy is fire element. Based on the attributes of the five elements, water quenches fire. If Chu Sheng were to go down to the bottom of the river, his strength will be severely suppressed by the watery environment.
With his hopes dashed in an instant, Chu Yu felt a bit depressed.
Just then, the owner of the noodle stand came over. Looking at the thin noodles in clear broth topped by delicate, minced green onions, Chu Yu's mood instantly became better. He helped Xie Xi take bamboo chopsticks and he was about to eat when Chu Sheng looked at him strangely and said: "But younger brother, you don't like to eat green onions, right?"
… The original Chu Yu does have this memory.
Without missing a beat, Chu Yu took up his bamboo chopsticks, moved the bowl over to Chu Sheng's side and transferred the green onions to Chu Sheng's bowl, saying: "Just now I was thinking of the water demon problem so I forgot to tell the waiter not to put in the green onion."
He narrowly escaped danger. If Chu Sheng had detected that something was wrong, it's likely that he would tie him up and take him to the Chu family home to examine him for possession. He doesn't know how he entered Chu Yu's body; It might be considered possession.
Chu Yu grew more and more worried as he finished removing the chopped green onions and started eating the noodles. He secretly spoke to the System: "Tell me, is this considered a case of possession?"
