God Slayer: Make Up for the Past

The letter in Chu Feng's hand weighed like a thousand-pound boulder, suffocating him. Its contents were intricate, touching upon the secrets of the Pan Yue family and a long-hidden conspiracy. Crucially, the letter hinted that Chu Feng's previous actions had played into this conspiracy, making it appear as if he had betrayed Pan Yue and colluded with the mysterious businessman Zhao.

He looked at the mysterious businessman Zhao, his eyes filled with even more doubt. Was this businessman being instructed by someone, or did he have other motives? Chu Feng took a deep breath and carefully put the letter away. He knew that this letter was the key to unlocking everything and the only evidence to prove his innocence.

"Pan Yue..." Chu Feng turned to look at Pan Yue, who still had a cold expression on his face, feeling helpless. Pan Yue's misunderstanding of him was too deep, and any explanation seemed pale and powerless at this moment.

Pan Yue turned his head away, not looking at Chu Feng. Ever since he discovered that Chu Feng seemed to have some connection with the mysterious businessman Zhao, he had built a wall in his heart, isolating Chu Feng from the outside world. He once considered Chu Feng his best brother, but now he felt like a stranger.

Chu Feng knew that he had to find solid evidence to break this invisible wall. He walked over to the mysterious businessman Zhao, who was groaning in pain after his wrist was twisted, squatted down, and said in a cold tone, "Tell me, who ordered you to do this?"

The mysterious businessman Zhao was sweating profusely from the pain, but he clenched his teeth and said nothing. A cold light flashed in Chu Feng's eyes. He knew that it would not be easy to pry the truth out of this cunning businessman.

He looked around and saw that the camp of the mysterious businessman Zhao was nearby. Perhaps he could find more clues there. Thinking of this, Chu Feng no longer paid attention to the mysterious businessman Zhao and walked straight towards the camp.

The camp was in a mess, clearly a scene of fighting. Chu Feng carefully searched every corner, hoping to find some clues.

Pan Yue stood there, watching Chu Feng's busy figure, with mixed feelings in his heart. He hoped that Chu Feng could find evidence to prove his innocence, but he was also afraid that the truth would make him even more disappointed.

Time passed, the sun set, and the sky darkened. Chu Feng searched almost the entire camp, but found nothing. He felt frustrated. Was there really no other clues?

Just as he was about to give up, his eyes fell on an inconspicuous wooden box in the corner of the camp. He walked over and opened the box, which was filled with various miscellaneous items. Chu Feng flipped through it casually, and suddenly, his hand stopped.

At the bottom of the pile of debris, he found a small box. The box was sealed with special runes and exuded a strange aura. Chu Feng's heart moved, and he carefully opened the box.

Inside the box was a stack of letters, each envelope unmarked. Chu Feng picked up a letter, unfolded it, and quickly scanned it. His pupils suddenly contracted, and his breathing quickened.

"This...this..." Chu Feng muttered to himself, his eyes gleaming with disbelief. He raised his head and looked at Pan Yue, his voice trembling: "Pan Yue, I...I found..."

Chu Feng's hands trembled, barely able to hold the stack of letters. They detailed the interactions between the mysterious businessman Zhao and a mysterious figure, as well as their plot to frame Chu Feng. Each letter was like a sharp knife, stabbing the mastermind and completely clearing Chu Feng of suspicion.

He took the letters and walked quickly to Pan Yue, his eyes flashing with excitement: "Pan Yue, look! These letters can prove my innocence!"

Pan Yue took the letter and flipped through it page by page. His expression gradually shifted from gloomy to shocked, and finally, a trace of guilt crept across his face. The contents of the letter were clear and undeniable. He had previously wrongly accused Chu Feng, even spoken harshly to him. Now that the truth was revealed, he felt immense remorse.

"Chu Feng, I..." Pan Yue put down the letter and wanted to say something, but found that his throat was choked and he could hardly speak.

Chu Feng patted his shoulder, a relieved smile on his face: "I know, you were also deceived. Now that the misunderstanding is resolved, we are still best brothers."

Pan Yue gripped Chu Feng's hand tightly, tears glistening in his eyes. He nodded vigorously, a thousand words melted into this single gesture. The barrier between them completely disappeared, and their relationship became closer than before, as if they had gone through a baptism, becoming more indestructible.

This scene caught the eye of the distant bandit Lin, and it made him feel a little uneasy. He had originally thought that Chu Feng and Pan Yue would part ways due to a misunderstanding, so that he could defeat them one by one and more easily obtain the spiritual vein. Now that the two had reconciled, it undoubtedly increased his difficulty.

"Looks like I have to change my plan..." Lin Dadao narrowed his eyes, a sinister glint flashing in them. He had originally planned to directly rob the spirit vein, but now it seemed that he had to get rid of Chu Feng and Pan Yue first.

Meanwhile, in another hidden corner, Sun Xieling was observing all this. With a sinister smile, he said to his minions, "Go, tell those smaller forces to test Chu Feng and Pan Yue's strength again. I want to see how powerful they are when they join forces."

As night fell, the forest fell silent. Chu Feng and Pan Yue walked side by side, discussing their next plan. They decided to first find the guardian of the spiritual vein and learn more about its specifics. Then, they would devise a way to deal with the forces behind the thief Lin and the mysterious businessman Zhao.

Suddenly, a gust of cold wind blew, and a rustling sound came from the woods. Chu Feng and Pan Yue immediately became alert, as they sensed a powerful evil force approaching.

"Be careful!" Chu Feng shouted softly, and a dazzling light condensed in his hand.

Pan Yue also quickly prepared for battle, with a determined gleam in his eyes.

The next moment, a group of hideous monsters rushed out of the woods and launched a fierce attack on them. Chu Feng and Pan Yue fought side by side, their coordination even more tacit, their moves connecting seamlessly, making it difficult for the enemy to resist. Liu Lingmai researcher watching nearby was stunned. He had never witnessed such a spectacular battle.

"Their strength is so powerful..." Liu Lingmai researcher muttered to himself, his eyes full of awe.

Chu Feng chopped a monster apart with his sword, then turned to Pan Yue and said, "It seems that Sun Xieling still refuses to give up..."

Chu Feng's longsword danced with silver light, its aura surging as he slashed through the advancing monsters one by one. Pan Yue, wielding a short knife, nimbly weaved between the monsters, his blade flashing as he struck their vital points with pinpoint accuracy. The two men worked in perfect harmony, attacking and defending at the same time, like an impenetrable barrier, blocking every attack from the monsters.

"Breath of Frost!" Pan Yue shouted softly, and a layer of frost appeared on the short knife in his hand. He swung out an ice-blue blade, freezing several monsters into ice sculptures.

Chu Feng seized the opportunity, swung his sword, and smashed the ice sculpture into pieces, sending fragments flying everywhere.

"What a great cooperation!" Liu Lingmai researcher who was hiding behind a tree couldn't help but admire. He had never seen such a wonderful battle. The strength of Chu Feng and Pan Yue was far beyond his imagination.

During the battle, Pan Yue looked at Chu Feng, his eyes filled with regret: "Chu Feng, I'm sorry for what happened before. I was too impulsive and shouldn't have doubted you."

Chu Feng patted him on the shoulder and smiled: "It's all in the past. The important thing now is to solve the trouble at hand." He understood Pan Yue's character. Instead of dwelling on past mistakes, it would be better to face future challenges together.

The battle lasted for nearly half an hour, and the number of monsters gradually decreased. Finally, with the fall of the last monster, the battle finally ended.

"These monsters must have been sent by the small forces commanded by Sun Xieling." Chu Feng looked at the monster corpses scattered on the ground, his brows furrowed. He knew that this was just a test from Sun Xieling, and the real threat was yet to come.

"We must find the guardian of the spirit vein as soon as possible and understand the specific situation of the spirit vein." Pan Yue said, "Only by mastering more information can we better deal with the challenges ahead."

"Yeah." Chu Feng nodded. He knew that time was running out and all forces were coveting the spiritual vein. They had to act as soon as possible.

"Chu Feng, Pan Yue, are you okay?" Liu Lingmai researcher walked out from behind the tree with a hint of worry on his face.

"We're fine." Chu Feng said, "Have you found anything?"

Liu Lingmai Researcher shook his head: "No, I only saw these monsters suddenly appear and then fight with you."

Chu Feng pondered for a moment and said, "Let's go back to the village first, tell the village chief about what happened, and then make plans."

The three returned to the village, only to find that it was filled with a strange atmosphere. The streets were empty, the doors of every household were closed, and the air was filled with an eerie silence.

"What's going on?" Pan Yue whispered. He felt a sense of unease.

Chu Feng took out the letter he had found earlier and was about to reveal the conspiracy of the mysterious businessman Zhao to the villagers, but he suddenly stopped and his eyes fell on an old tree at the entrance of the village. On the trunk of the old tree, a strange symbol was engraved, emitting a faint red light.

"This symbol..." Chu Feng frowned. He felt that this symbol was familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen it.

"What's wrong?" Pan Yue followed Chu Feng's gaze and saw the strange symbol.

Chu Feng didn't answer. He slowly walked towards the old tree and reached out to touch the symbol. Suddenly, the symbol glowed brightly, and a powerful force sucked Chu Feng in...

"Chu Feng!" Pan Yue exclaimed and wanted to step forward to stop him, but it was too late.
