The sun had already started to reveal itself, from afar it could be seen that three people riding on horses had come to Jinhu Village, they were Lho Zian, Qiao Lin and Jiu Rui, respectively, they came by racing their horses very quickly.
Upon arrival in front of the village, they were greeted with a terrible sight, many corpses of warriors were lying on the ground, The smell of blood fishy mixed with the smell of smoke was also felt.
They looked at Ho Chen who was talking to some swordsmen and walked over to him.
"That's Mr. Lho, he's come..!." Excited one of the warriors pointed towards Lho Zian who was walking towards him.
Lho Zian himself was quite surprised after seeing the warriors from the Green Snake sect already lifeless, not a single one alive.
Lho Zian was confused as to what to react, whether to be happy because of winning, but said to win in fact many villagers died, plus the warriors.
But Lho Zian still had a sense of indebtedness to Ho Chen, at least he and his swordsmen and some girls could survive because of Ho Chen's help.
The other nine warriors also did not expect that the help that came was only alone, but were able to defeat them all by themselves in just a third of the night.
"Broker Chen, thank you so much for helping us!." Lho Zian said with his body locked.
"Mr Lho, just save your thanks, we better take care of these bodies before they cause disease." Said Ho Chen.
They all agreed and immediately collected the corpses of the residents, the bodies of the residents in the tomb were mass, while the bodies of the Green Snake sect were piled up and burned by Ho Chen.
A full day they work, when night falls all the bodies are finished buried.
After all was done, they all sat pensively, they did not know what to do in the future, all the houses were burned down so that there was no house that was worthy to be inhabited by them.
"Sir, what are you going to do now?." Asked Ho Chen who was sitting with Jiu Rui and also Qiao Lin.
Lho Zian shook his head as well as replied, I don't know either!." Said Lho Zian.
"Alright Mr. Lho, if Mr. Lho and all of you don't mind, I have a little advice for all of you." Said Ho Chen.
Lho Zian immediately turned to Ho Chen and asked. "What is the swordsman's advice? Let's say we'll follow her." Said Lho Zian.
"If you want, go to the south, and look for the name of Bamboo Forest Village, you can live there and start your new life, there is also a new sect built, there is also a new sect, so the seniors all could also join the sect." Said Ho Chen.
"Brokers, don't call us seniors, we're just ordinary village warriors, so it's inappropriate for a swordsman to call us seniors." Answer one of them.
"You're all older than me, so it's appropriate for me to call you seniors." Said Ho Chen.
Lho Zian of course already knew if Ho Chen was very young, but the others were a little hesitant, because they had not seen Ho Chen's face.
"I salute to the swordsman Chen, this is proof that today's youth still respect those who are older, even though the swordsman Chen is very strong, he said, yet he did not want to be impudent to someone older than him." Said Lho Zian praising to Ho Chen's courtesy.
"You must be joking sir Lho, do you think this swordsman is young?." Said one of them.
"True, this warrior is indeed very young." The word Lho Zian convinced them, but none of them believed.
Ho Chen only smiled thinly behind his mask hearing the talk of those who were debating about his age which he thought was not very important.
"Mr Lho, there's something I want to talk about, can we talk alone?." Said Ho Chen.
"Of course you could be Chen's swordsman!." Answer Lho Zian.
Ho Chen and Lho Zian went to a place a little far away from them and stopped after being sure no one could hear the conversation of the two of them.
"Master Lho, I want to ask! Where did Lord Lho get this ring?." Ho Chen asked while showing the ring Lho Zian gave him.
Lho Zian was silent for a moment and began to tell the origin of the ring.
"The ring was already owned by the previous village heads, and continued to be inherited to the next village chief to me.
According to the story, someone once found the ring in a Goa, then gave it to the first head of Jinhu Village." Lho Zian said briefly.
Ho Chen nodded then said. "Did Lord Lho know if they actually came and attacked the village just for the sake of this ring?." Asked Ho Chen who was greeted with shock Lho Zian.
"What..! So this ring is actually what they're looking for? Butwhy? What's the special thing about this ring?." Lho Zian asked without covering up his shock.
Ho Chen began to tell about the secret behind the ring so briefly that it made Lho Zian even more surprised.
Lho Zian did not suspect that the ring that had accompanied him was an heirloom object, but Lho Zian realized that he still had the ring, then he will be the target of the black stream that has allied with the Devils.
"Broker, it's better that the swordsman keeps the ring, it'll be safer than being with me." Said Lho Zian who no longer wanted the ring of the doom.
"Alright if Master Lho gives it to me, I will take good care of him!." Answer Ho Chen.
After they finished talking, they returned to where Jiu Rui was and returned to talking until late at night.
In the morning, they gathered in front of Jinhu Village which has now been destroyed. "You should go to the Bamboo Forest Village immediately, sooner it will be better, and tell the Sect Chief of the Bamboo Forest if you come there on my orders." Ho Chen's Message.
"Thank you swordsman Chen, we'll be there soon, but if I may know, where are you going next?." Ask Lho Zian.
"I'll go to the Green Snake Sect first, if my business there is done, then we'll go back on our way back." Said Ho Chen.
"Alright everyone, take good care of yourself, remember to immediately go to the Bamboo Forest Village! See you soon...!." Ho Chen said then continued on his way.
They all continued to look at the departure of the three to the point of being invisible and then immediately prepared to leave for the Bamboo Forest Village following Ho Chen's advice.

"did we really go to the Green Snake Sect?." Qiao Lin asked after they were already far away from the Village.
"Yes, we're going there, I have to fix the mistake I made before." Said Ho Chen.
"What do you mean, are you planning on talking to Shuo Jie?." Ask Jiu Rui.
"No, I won't talk to him, but rather want to eliminate the sect from this earth."
"Outdating the Green Snake sect? The three of us, is it possible that we can destroy the sect?." Jiu Rui asked with doubt.
Ho Chen smiled faintly then said. "You don't have to go there, let me Niu and the White Dragon go there, you just wait in a safe place." Said Ho Chen speaking calmly.
Jiu Rui and Qiao Lin already knew the power of the White Dragon that could transform into an enormous dragon tail Se, yet they did not know what kind of strength Niu would have if he were on the battlefield.
The three of them continued walking towards the Green Snake Sect, this time Ho Chen's intention was already round, he was already unwilling to let the Sect allied with demons continue to expand. "Please wait for Shuo Jie, I came to make a calculation with you." Ho Chen said by clenching his hands together very tightly.
