Chapter 297
“What?”
Yang Zhen’s statement made the entire reception hall quiet in an instant, and everyone looked at Yang Zhen in surprise. They were bewilderment, especially the Fang Family’s elder, who turned his head and looked gloomily at Yang Jiang, asking in a deep voice, “Is this true?”
Yang Jiang and Aunt Lian were also taken aback, looking uncertainly at Yang Zhen. Seeing Yang Zhen’s calm demeanor, Yang Jiang gritted her teeth and nodded, saying, “It is true!”
“Jiang!” Aunt Lian exclaimed softly, seeming to want to say something but holding back.
The Yang Family’s treasure in Ice Martial City was famous, coveted by countless influential forces. Yet due to their reputations, none had taken action Now, let alone being in the Fang Family territory, their situation was extremely perilous. Moreover, the elder of the Han family, who had previously admired the treasure, was also present, aiming to decipher its mysteries.
With Yang Zhen’s declaration, he had almost offended both the Fang and Han families simultaneously-how could the three of them protect themselves amidst such circumstances?
What unsettled Aunt Lian even more was that, after hearing Yang Jiang’s words, a smile appeared on Yang Zhen’s face.
“Hmm!”
The Fang Family’s elder’s expression was gloomy and uncertain as he stared at Yang Zhen and demanded, “May I know this young friend’s name, and where are you from?”
Yang Zhen laughed and responded, “My name is Yang Zhen, and don’t worry I don’t come from any distinguished background or apprenticeship. I’m just a ’ distant cousin of Jiang.”
Distant cousin?
Hearing Yang Zhen’s words, Yang Jiang and Aunt Lian were stunned, staring blankly at Yang Zhen.
The people in the hall were also confused, their eyes darting between Yang Zhen and Yang Jiang.
Just then, Yang Zhen seemed to remember something and said to the Fang family elder, “Oh yes, I am here because I have some business on the Northern Island. Aren’t you all about to go there for some ancestor’s birthday celebration? Could I hitch a ride with you?”
Yang Zhen’s words echoed throughout the hall, and everyone looked bewilderedly at Yang Zhen.
“You insolent brat!” The Fang family elder roared in anger, pointing at Yang Zhen and demanded, “Arrogant boy, you talk nonsense. Let me ask you, were Yang’s injuries your handiwork?”
Yang?” Yang Zhen was startled, shaking his head and said, “I don’t know anv YangorNiu.”
‘How dare you, impudent rascal! Are you trying to deny it? If you didn’t cause the injuries on my body, did I do it to myself?” Fang Yang hobbled into the crowd, his face furious. He pointed at Yang Zhen and was about to continue speaking when suddenly, a figure flickered before his eyes.
Smack!
Acrisp sound was heard, followed by a yelp from Fang Yang. He spun several times m midair before thudding to the ground. When he struggled to get up one side of his face was already swollen red.
Yang Zhen, acting nonchalant, shook his hand and returned to his original position. With a wave of his hand, the stone floor of the hall cracked, and a burst of True Essence surged up. Amidst the flying rocks and stones,’ a seat even more impressive than the Fang famfly elder’s appeared in front of everyone. After sitting down, Yang Zhen frowned, sighed, and said, “Does it seem like a peaceful discussion is not possible?”
Everyone was dumbfounded by the sudden turn of events and looked at Yang Zhen m astonishment. The Fang family members, in particular, gathered around, their expressions all gloomy. Especially the elder, his eyes exhibited a distinct trace of greed.
Boom !
Awaveof enormous energy erupted from Fang Yang, whose roars resounded like a beast charging at Yang Zhen in a fit of anger. He was halted by Fang Quan’s grip from behind, who said sternly, “Fang Yang, stop it. Are you his match?”
Everyone inhaled sharply, startled, looking at Yang Zhen.
Earlier, Yang Zhen moved so fast he appeared ghost-like. No one was able to see his actions clearly and all of a sudden, Fang Yang was performing mid-air somersaults.
Yang Jiang and Aunt Lian looked at each other before simultaneously drawing their swords, standing in front of Yang Zhen.
The elder of the Han family, surprised, looked at Yang Zhen. A serious look flashed in his eyes as he looked at the young woman behind him.
The young woman from Han Family, Han Yan’er, suddenly had a glint in her eyes, she fixed her gaze on Yang Zhen, her eyes full of astonishment.
“Good! Good! Good!”
Fang Family’s elder was extremely furious, repeated ‘good’ three times He slowly stood up, stared at Yang Zhen, and said, “Yang Zhen, atsuchayoung age, you have such skills. No wonder you dared to cause a ruckus in my Fang Family. However, if you think you can act recklessly in Ice Martial City, then you are gravely mistaken.”
Yang Zhen casually sat there, upon hearing that, he snorted and said, “Elder, if I knew your Fang Family behaved so barbarically, I, Sao Saint, wouldn’t have walked in here courteously. Instead, I would have barged in here. A prominent family like yours using treacherous and despicable means to eliminate the Yang Family is one thing. But now, even when I, Sao Saint, am speaking gentlemanly, all you do is curse. Didn’t your mother teach you the five constants and four virtues? ”
Fang Family’s elder was enveloped by an aura of dark clouds. Seething with anger, he glared at Yang Zhen and shouted, “You are a cheeky one, aren’t you? Guards, seize him. To hell with sparing his life!”
Boom—!
In the hall, body after body of Void Cultivation Stage powerhouses erupted with mighty waves. In the blink of an eye, the waves filled the entire hall, all of which rushed toward Yang Zhen.
Yang Zhen shook his head in regret and said, “I just wanted to be a nice guy!” The moment his words fell, Yang Zhen placed his hands on both sides of his seatAburst of terrifying waves exploded from his body. His Ksitigarbha Skill was as fierce as a dragon. Multiple earthen snakes roamed around, drilling through the group of Void Cultivation Stage powerhouses. Every time a dull sound was heard, a Void Cultivation Stage powerhouse turned into a terracotta warrior.
The terrifying earthen waves rolled like the sky itself, and the rising and falling earthen snakes whipped up gales. In an instant, all of the Void Cultivation Stage powerhouses in the room turned into immobile terracotta warriors, giving off a bizarre sight.
Yang Zhen stood up, beckoning to Elder Fang, and said, “Come on, come on join them. It saves me the trouble of dealing with you later!”
While speaking, Yang Zhen looked at Elder Han with a peculiar expression. Surprised, he asked, “Old man, are you related to this old man? Do you want to join in too?”
Elder Han’s eyes twitched. After a moment of hesitation, he laughed and said “I, the old patriarch of the Han family, Han Jingtian, am not related to the Fang family.” 6
Yang Zhen made a polite bow and said, “So, you ‘re Elder Han from Ice Martial City’s first family, the Han Family. Let me first teach this Elder Fang how to behave as a human, then I’ll pay a visit to you!”
Elder Han made a peculiar face and said, “Alright, alright.”
“Bastard?” Amidst his rage, Fang Family’s elder roared. Suddenly, there was an explosion of violent True Essence from behind him. The furious energy shot up into the sky, rattling the entire roof.
This terrifying surge of True Essence caused a stir among everyone in Fang’s family. Countless people rushed towards the scene. Each one narrowed their eyes with an expression of severity, revealing their endless intent to kill.
Yang Zhen looked at Elder Fang with surprise. As expected of a superior in the Divine Travel Stage, a master who had broken through the Divine Travel Realm, he had condensed a golden and splendid palace behind him.
As the illusionary palace was completed, waves of majestic True Essence surged m all directions, causing people to tremble in fear.
Yang Jiang and Aunt Lian exclaimed and said to Yang Zhen: “Young Master, be careful. This is the Fang’s family secret technique ‘Sacred Palace Illusion.’ It’s very powerful. Ordinary True Essence cannot break its defense.”
Yang Zhen made a sound of surprise, his eyes on Elder Fang’s palace behind him. He muttered to himself, “So this is how you can play it?”
As soon as he finished speaking, the True Essence behind Yang Zhen began to surge, and the roaring sound echoed like dragon chants and elephant roars.
Elder Fang just laughed out loud and said to Yang Zhen, “Yang Zhen, can an ordinary beast’s illusion compare with my Fang Family’s exclusive Sacred Palace technique?”
Yang nodded his head and said, “That is indeed the case. However… what about this?”
Boom!
The moment Yang Zhen’s words fell, the Dragon Elephant illusion behind him suddenly exploded, forming a huge circular illusion. In the center, six-pointed stars shone brightly, and amidst the six-pointed star, an enormous tank gradually condensed.
Astonishing defense, isn’t it? Let me show you the power of my Blue Star super tank, which will bomb you, old fool, to death.
This… what is this?” Elder Fang was dumbfounded.
