Some of the weaker ones felt their chests tighten as they spit out mouthfuls of blood.
Dust and sand filled the sky.
As the shockwave gradually dissipated, everyone stabilized their bodies and looked at the center with frightened eyes.
What happened just now?
Chu Yun, how could Chu Yun, how could he have the strength to fight a Qi Disciple Level 4?
As the dust settled, a figure could be seen standing there proudly with his hands behind his back.
These people all heaved a sigh of relief in their hearts.
It seems that Chu Yun is still too inexperienced, he wouldn't be that monstrous right?
The last person to stand was undoubtedly Chu Zhoushan.
As the dust settled, all of the members of the Chu Clan widened their eyes. Some of them even cried out.
"How is this possible?"
"It's Chu Yun!"
The one who was standing there, wasn't Chu Zhoushan at all, but the Chu Yun that no one was optimistic about!
How could it be him? Why was it him?
This was completely impossible!
Chu Yun raised the corner of his mouth into a smile. This was the first time he had used it in actual combat since comprehending the power of a Hand of the Flipping Cloud.
"Little... "You little beast!"
Chu Zhoushan stood up from the pile of broken stones. His breathing was heavy, and his eyes were blood-red.
Upon seeing Chu Zhoushan, everyone held their breath.
There was actually a bright red handprint on his face!
Chu Zhoushan, was he actually slapped in the face by Chu Yun?
As everyone knew, even if an expert with similar strength were to fight, it would still be difficult to hit the opponent's face. As the saying goes, not only did you not slap anyone in the face, but also in the face of true hatred in a battle to the death.
To be slapped in front of so many eyes, this was absolutely a form of humiliation!
It was no wonder that Chu Zhoushan was so angry.
"I will chop you into countless pieces, I will chop you into pieces!"
Chu Zhoushan was like a crazy demon beast as he rushed towards Chu Yun with dishevelled hair.
Things had gotten to this point. It had nothing to do with anything else. It was purely a matter of face!
As a senior, how could Chu Zhoushan have any face when he was mercilessly slapped in the face by a junior? In the future, would he be able to see anyone again?
The most important thing was that he was the one who took the initiative to attack them!
Many of those who witnessed the scene swallowed their saliva and took the initiative to look at Chu Tiankuo.
They finally understood why Chu Tiankuo had that confident look on his face the entire time. It was because Chu Yun's fighting strength was not weak compared to Chu Zhoushan!
If they really were to fight, even Chu Zhoushan might not necessarily be able to win.
Chus' chest rose and fell like a blacksmith's bellows. His face was pale and his scalp felt like it was about to explode.
Earlier, when he spoke out to support Chu Zhoushan, it was equivalent to him standing on Chu Zhoushan's side. Who would have thought that the situation would be reversed at this time? This caused his heart to feel extremely cold, and he was on the verge of despair.
"That slap just now was just a lesson for you." If you continue to pester me, I will show no mercy! "
Chu Yun's eyes were cold, his entire body brimming with killing intent, the light in his eyes overflowing.
As long as he wanted, in the next second, he could use his heavenly blade and cut Chu Zhoushan apart.
"Enough, all of you stop!"
At this moment, an old voice sounded out likhunderclap, intimidating everyone present.
Chu Tiankuo smiled and stood up from his seat.
This voice belonged to Chu Tiankuo and Chu Zhoushan's father, who was also Chu Yun's grandfather. The previous patriarch of the Chu Family — — Chu Chen, Old Man Chu.
Chu Zhoushan's body trembled, his eyes flashed with a baleful aura, but in the end, his anger still defeated his rationality, and he continued to charge at Chu Yun without slowing down in the slightest.
"Xiaoshan, didn't you hear what I said?"
Old Man Chu snorted coldly, a shadow flashed across the sky and struck Chu Zhoushan in the abdomen.
"Wuuwaa!"
Chu Zhoushan spat out a mouthful of blood, his movements suddenly stopped, holding onto his stomach, he rolled on the ground in pain.
A tall and red old man was standing on top of the ruins of the meeting hall. His eyes were calm and his clothes fluttered in the wind.
That punch just now had come from him.
A single strike was enough to injure Chu Zhoushan. Old Man Chu's cultivation was definitely not weak!
"Dad, I refuse to accept this, I refuse to accept this!"
Chu Zhoushan painfully clutched his stomach, his eyes full of resentment.
"What are you unconvinced about?"
Old Man Chu gave a cold snort, "If I don't make a move now, this old face will all be lost to you. To make a move against your own nephew in public, and even lose in such a disgraceful manner, do you truly not know how to write the word shame? "
Chu Zhoushan was trembling from head to toe, his teeth clattering loudly.
To him, all of this happened in a blink of an eye, as though it was all just a dream.
Chu Zhoushan could not understand, why would he lose to Chu Yun in a fight?
What he used, was his clan's martial skill, Hand of the Flipping Cloud!
But when did Hand of the Flipping Cloud gain such power?
"We're about to arrive at the ancestral worship ceremony. Instead of making proper preparations, you started an internal strife here. Do you really think this old man is getting old and can't control you?"
Old Man Chu's gaze was as sharp as an eagle as it swept across the surroundings. All those who were seen by him lowered their heads subserviently, no one daring to look him straight in the eyes.
Chu Yun's mouth had a smile, looking at his grandfather who he had only seen a few times.
"Zhoushan is indeed a bit reckless, but Yun'er is also at fault."
Chu Tiankuo laughed as he came out to smooth things over, but looking at his expression, he was full of pride, how did he look like he was apologizing on Chu Yun's behalf in the slightest?
"Chu Yun, what's wrong with that?"
Old Man Chu stared at Chu Yun.
"My mistake was that I did too much harm to my uncle and did not think about kinship. Next time, I will pay attention! "
Chu Yun replied seriously.
"Pfft!"
Hearing that, Chu Zhoushan was so angry that his entire body trembled, he could not help but spew out another mouthful of blood.
Next time? Next time?
Old Man Chu gave a cold snort and waved his hand: "Smooth talker, disperse!" Tian Kuo, you stay with Chu Yun! "
Old Man Chu did not mention anything about the dispute over the Patriarch's seat, but it looked like Chu Zhoushan did not have the face to compete for the Patriarch's seat anymore these few years.
If you can't even beat the son of the Patriarch, then what right do you have to fight for the Patriarch?
Very quickly, everyone had left, leaving only Chu Tiankuo and Chu Yun.
Old Man Chu looked at Chu Yun, a look of benevolence appeared in his eyes, and he could not help but laugh: "Yun'er, I never expected your talent to be so extraordinary. From now on, it will be less than half a year, right? It's unbelievable that you could achieve such a feat! "
"Grandfather."
Chu Yun respectfully lowered his head.
Even though he had not seen Chu Chen come out a few times, but the other side was still his own grandfather after all, so he had to have some respect for him.
"Good, good. It seems like our Chu Clan will really prosper! "
Old man Chu was
obviously in a good mood, he turned and looked at Chu Tiankuo: "Tianwei, I heard that you destroyed the Chen family and unified Hong An city? Not bad, not bad! Originally, I had planned to personally clean them up after coming out of seclusion. "
"Father, these people do not have much to do with me. They are the people of the Tian Dao Sect."
Chu Tiankuo immediately replied.
"No matter who did it, it's all because of you."
Old Man Chu smiled, then said mysteriously, "Do you know why I've been in closed door cultivation for so many years?"
This time, Chu Chen had been in closed-door training for five years.
It had been so long that many people thought that Old Man Chu had passed away.
"Five years ago, I didn't have much time left, but I happened to get a 500 year old spiritual medicine which could help me break the age limit. Thus, I started my closed door cultivation and spent half a year to refine that stalk of spirit medicine and extend my thirty years of life. "There is no longer any limit to my cultivation, so I spent the rest of the four and a half years cultivating. Now, I am at the 5th level of Qi Condensation."
Old Man Chu had his hands behind his back, his tone full of pride.
Five years ago, his time was running out and there was no way he could take another step forward.
He hadn't thought that a 500 year old elixir would be able to help him live longer and break through again.
"Fifth level of Qi Condensation?"
Chu Tiankuo was shocked.
From the moment Old Man Chu injured Chu Zhoushan with a single strike, he could tell that Old Man Chu's cultivation had improved by a lot.
He never thought that not only would his lifespan increase, but he would also reach the fifth level of Qi Condensation.
This meant that the overall strength of the Chu Clan had risen to another level!
"Perhaps, this is fate."
Old Man Chu sighed with emotion, then chuckled and said: "Of course the thing that makes me most happy is Yun'er's Inherent Skill! "Come, Yun'er, let me see your martial soul!"
Chu Yun nodded, and released his Supreme Battle Soul.
The moment the supreme battle spirit appeared, the surrounding temperature plummeted. Killing intent filled the air and was incomparably majestic.
Ten yellow lights circled the side.
"Yellow Rank Level Ten Martial Spirit?"
Old Man Chu was a little surprised, of course, what surprised him the most was the appearance of Chu Yun's martial spirit.
This was a shadow that looked likuman figure. It was difficult to see its appearance clearly, but it emitted a monstrous killing intent. It was extremely mysterious.
"What Martial Spirit is this? I've never seen it before."
Old Man Chu was shocked.
Because Chu Tiankuo knew Chu Yun's secret, he quickly came out to smooth things over. "The TaiGan Continent is so vast, even if there really is a few bizarre Martial Spirits, they are not something that we can explore. However, the only thing he was certain of was that Yun'er's martial soul was very strong, and could greatly increase his strength and speed! That's why he can frequently fight those who havigher cultivation level! "
Chapter 66 - Still Not giving up
"So that's how it is."
Old man Chu was suddenly enlightened, then he laughed heartily, "To have this kind of miraculous martial soul, it's your fortune, Yun'er. But you must remember, cultivation is dangerous, you must never look down on someone who is superior! "
Following that, there was another series of warnings. Chu Yun didn't display any sign of impatience and just listened seriously.
"Alright, you can go back now. The ancestral worship ceremony will officially begin tomorrow."
Old Man Chu was in high spirits, clearly in a good mood.
The ancestral worship ceremony was to go to the ancestral shrine and ask the ancestors for protection and blessings.
To the family, the ancestral worship ceremony was an opportunity for internal communication.
… ….
"Father, this little bastard actually slapped me in public. Kill him, we must kill him!"
In a courtyard, Chu Qingya was trembling in anger, her lips were pale. It was obvious that she still hadn't walked out from her previous state of fear.
Chu Zhoushan gently touched his own cheek, and his entire body trembled from the pain. He gnashed his teeth and said fiercely: "Qingya, don't worry, I will make that brat pay the price! But since the old gramps is out, I can't do it myself … "
"Then what do we do? Are we just going to watch as he continues to act so arrogantly?"
Chu Qingya couldn't contain her anger. She couldn't get over this humiliation.
"Hmph, I have my own ways to deal with him!" I have an old friend's son who also cultivates in the Tian Dao Sect. However, he is a core disciple and is also a member of the largest alliance in the Tian Dao Sect. It's not convenient for me to help, but I can definitely kill someone with my own hands! I will immediately write a letter and request for him to come here to properly teach Chu Yun a lesson! "
Chu Zhoushan sneered, his eyes releasing a sinister light.
"This is great!"
Chu Qingya's beautiful eyes lit up.
"Also, Qingya, we have to prepare two hands. This little bastard must die, and I am determined to win the position of Patriarch. Hadn't Third Prince Xia Yang been trying hard to woo you recently? You can ask him to come to Hong An City and start a conflict with that little bastard! If Chu Yun ultimately died at Xia Yang's hands, I think even the old man would be helpless to do anything, right? "
Chu Zhoushan's entire body was filled with an evil aura, like an Asura from hell.
Xia Yang was the third prince of Da Xia Empire. He walayboy with a lecherous personality and had no ambition. He was also a student of the Martial House of Grand Xia and had always been bitterly pursuing Chu Qingya.
It had to be said that Chu Qingya had quite a few tricks up her sleeve. She was able to move between all sorts of royal members and was actually quite adept at it.
"Good idea, I'll contact Xia Yang right now!"
Chu Qingya nodded, obviously very satisfied with this method.
Xia Yang was the third prince, if he really killed Chu Yun, what could the Chu Family do? Rebel? Against the royal family?
"Little bastard, you dared to hurt me. I will make you regret ever being born into this world!"
Chu Zhoushan sneered, and smashed the pavilion in the courtyard into pieces witalm.
In the blink of an eye, the next day arrived.
Early in the morning, the Chu Clan got up and prepared. They paid a lot of attention to this ancestral worship ceremony.
The news of Old Man Chu coming out of seclusion quickly spread throughout the city.
Previously, many of the Chu Clan members thought that the old man had died, but they didn't expect that he had not died, and instead had a new breakthrough in his cultivation.
After coming out of seclusion, the Chu Clan's overall strength had increased yet again.
In front of the ancestral hall, all sorts of offerings had already been arranged, and the ancestral worship ceremony had officially begun.
"May our ancestors protect our Chu Family and protect our descendants as they climb the peak on the path of martial arts!"
Old Man Chu solemnly offered a stick of incense and kowtowed several times towards the ancestral tablets.
Then, Chu Tiankuo, Chu Zhoushan and the rest walked into the ancestral hall and paid their respects to the ancestor.
Chu Zhoushan looked at Chu Tiankuo beside him, and said in a low voice: "Chu Tiankuo, the Patriarch's position, will definitely be mine!"
Chu Tiankuo did not even glance at him, and chuckled after hearing that: "Why do you still have the face to fight for the position of Patriarch? Isn't that disgraceful enough? "
"Cut the crap, just wait and see!"
Chu Zhoushan was flustered and exasperated, after throwing
down those words, he turned and left.
After they finished paying their respects, it was Chu Yun and the rest of the juniors' turn.
The ancestral worship ceremony lasted for almost half a day.
"Young master."
Chu Hongfei and Chu Mo walked over excitedly.
"How have you been?"
Chu Yun asked with a smile.
"Thanks to Young Master, no one dares to bully us anymore. Even the elders would take care of us during class."
"That's right, we've even doubled our cultivation resources every month!"
The two of them looked pretty good. Although their cultivation level was rising slowly, they had already reached the fifth level of the Mortal Realm.
With the grade of their martial spirits, having this kind of speed of improvement was already a miracle.
In the future, he would at least enter the Qi Transformation stage with ease.
"That's good."
Chu Yun nodded, the two of them had a good relationship with his kin, if he could help, he would help.
"That's right, Young Lord, we heard a piece of news before we came here."
Chu Hongfei suddenly spoke.
Chu Yun's brows twitched: "What news?"
"The beasts in the Formless Mountain are in chaos. Many villages have been destroyed at the foot of the mountain. However, those beasts didn't rush out either. I don't know why, but they are still wreaking havoc in the mountain."
Chu Hongfei was worried.
The Formless Mountain was an ancient and deep mountain. There were all kinds of demonic beasts within it. In the depths of the mountain, there were even many Qi Transformation Stage demonic beasts. It was extremely dangerous.
The most important thing was that the Formless Mountain was very close to Hong An City. It was less than ten kilometers away from Hong An City. If those beasts rushed out, Hong An City would definitely be the one to bear the brunt!
"There's suching?"
Chu Yun looked up with interest.
He had been worried that he would not havlace to practice the Hand of the Flipping Cloud and the Berserk Dragon Blade Art.
"Yes, if Young Master is interested, you can go to the Formless Mountain and investigate, but you must pay attention to safety."
Chu Hongfei knew that Chu Yun liked to challenge others, so he specially passed the news to him.
