Chapter 141: Why Did It Come to This (1)
Translator: Daoist6fubtiW
“Swordsman!”
Hearing the cries of shock from the Foundation Building cultivators present, Yang Gongwan felt as if her head had been hit hard. She was dizzy and could not recover for a long time.
What she had painstakingly pursued year after year was actually completed by a cultivator from a small family that she had never really valued.
At this moment.
An unprecedented sense of defeat overwhelmed her.
She finally understood what her grandfather had always told her. A big family started from a small family.
Not many big families were born big families.
She looked at Chen Daoxuan, who was the center of attention. It was as if she could see the rise of a large family from that dazzling figure.
Swordsman!
If Chen Daoxuan didn’t fall in the future, the Chen family would definitely rise and be unstoppable.
Yang Gongwan, who understood how terrifying Swordsmen were, knew this very well.
“Brother Zhou, let’s go.”
Chen Daoxuan looked at Zhou Siliang, who was gradually losing control of his emotions, and a thunderous voice exploded in his ears.
They were shocked by the explosion.
Zhou Siliang regained some of his consciousness. He looked at Chen Daoxuan with pleading eyes.
” Brother Chen, help me this once. 1 beg you, please save my father!”
Hearing this.
Chen Daoxuan fell silent.
After a long while, he sighed. It’s not that I don’t want to save Uncle Zhou, but this decision is both your Zhou family’s decision and your father’s own choice.”
Chen Daoxuan didn’t know what the Zhou family was thinking.
However, in his opinion, although Zhou Mucheng was at fault, his crime did not warrant death. The Zhou family’s actions were a little too harsh on their clansmen.
At least.
The Chen family under Chen Daoxuan’s control would not be able to make such a cold decision.
From the perspective of benefits.
The Zhou Clan had undoubtedly paid the smallest price to preserve their reputation.
Once the Zhou family investigated this matter thoroughly.
Not only would he be able to return justice to the Zhou Clan, but he would also be able to establish the Zhou Clan’s absolute prestige in front of the millions of cultivators in Guang ‘an Prefecture.
It would even lay the foundation for the Zhou family to become the number one family in the Azure Continent in the future.
The Zhou Clan had only lost an insignificant late Foundation Establishment cultivator who didn’t have much lifespan left.
Even the other members of the Zhou Clan would not feel that the clan was cold.
After all, the Zhou family was now being accused by everyone and suffered injustice. It was all because of Zhou Mucheng’s dereliction of duty.
If not for that…
With the Zhou Clan’s strength, they would definitely not fall into such a dilemma.
“No, I can’t! I don’t believe it!”
Zhou Siliang kept shaking his head.” The family will never give up on my father! Our Zhou family has stood in Guang ‘an Prefecture for more than a thousand years. What storms have we not experienced?
Back then, during the Rebellion of God Extinction, so many Golden Core cultivators of Cang Prefecture died in battle and so many families were destroyed.
1 don’t believe that my Zhou Clan will abandon our clansmen after the death of a mere hundred Foundation Establishment Cultivators! 1 won’t believe anything I say!”
Zhou Siliang’s eyes were red as he spoke. His expression was as if he wanted to eat someone alive.
Seeing him like this, Chen Daoxuan did not know how to console him.
There was only silence.
“Wu…Uh, Father, what are you doing?”
Zhou Siliang turned around with difficulty and saw Zhou Mucheng, who was covered in blood, pressing his right palm against Zhou Siliang’s back.
Dharmic spell dao patterns circulated on his palm.
Chen Daoxuan recognized it at a glance. It was the technique to seal the Dantian’s Sea of Qi.
Zhou Mucheng’s left chest spirit armor had a hole in it. From the hole, one could even vaguely see his beating heart.
An ordinary person would have died long ago from such injuries.
However, as a late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator, Zhou Mucheng still forcefully mustered up his remaining True Essence. Under his sneak attack, he temporarily imprisoned Zhou Siliang’s dantian.
Zhou Mucheng ignored his son’s surprised gaze and turned to Chen Daoxuan. He bowed to him while trembling and said, “”Nephew, thank you!”
“Uncle Zhou, please rise!”
Chen Daoxuan rolled up his True Essence and brought Zhou Siliang, whose Dantian was sealed and had temporarily lost control of his True Essence, onto his flying sword.
She used her hands to support Zhou Mucheng’s kneeling body.
Zhou Mucheng then looked at his own flesh and blood. His eyes revealed a hint of love as he said,”Siliang, from now on…Father is not in the world, you should consult your Brother Chen on everything.
Don’t mess around with those scoundrels like you did in the past, remember?”
Zhou Siliang was sobbing and shaking his head with red eyes.
“Father, no, don’t!”
Tears kept rolling down Zhou Siliang’s cheeks. He shouted hoarsely,” We are from the Zhou family. The Wu family won’t dare to do anything to us. Father, run! Run!”
Hearing this.
Zhou Mucheng smiled miserably.
” Back then, I escaped from the Southern Mountain’s City. From then on, 1 swore that I, Zhou Mucheng, would never escape again!”
After saying that.
Zhou Mucheng no longer looked at his son. He turned to Wu Guangyi and said loudly,”Old Ghost Wu, I lost. According to the agreement, my life is yours!”
Who knew that when he heard this.
Wu Guangyi glanced at Chen Daoxuan with a hint of fear in his eyes.
“Cough cough! Don’t worry, this is my own choice. It has nothing to do with anyone else!”
Zhou Mucheng immediately knew what Wu Guangyi was thinking when he saw the look in his eyes. He coughed up blood and laughed wantonly.
“Good!”
Wu Guangyi nodded his head heavily.” After today, the Wu family will no longer mention the Zhou family’s attempt to kill our Wu family members. However, the Zhou family must give us an explanation as soon as possible!” “Don’t worry!”
Zhou Mucheng nodded.” Even if you didn’t say anything about this, the Zhou family will still give the Wu family and the millions of people in Guang ‘an Prefecture an explanation!
In the thousand years since the Zhou Family established Guang ‘an City, other than the Rebellion of God Extinction back then, there has never been such a serious assassination. My Zhou Family will definitely give everyone a satisfactory explanation for this matter!”
Zhou Mucheng’s words were firm and decisive.
With that, he closed his eyes and prepared to reverse his true essence and sever his heart meridian.
But in the next second.
However, he discovered that his true essence had been sealed.
No, to be precise, his entire body was imprisoned.
“Who is it?”
Zhou Mucheng opened his eyes in horror.
Although he had almost completely exhausted his true essence, he was still a late-stage Foundation Establishment Cultivator. For him to be able to do something like this was something that even Zifu Disciples would find difficult to do.
Could it be…A Golden Core cultivator!
Zhou Mucheng was shocked by his thoughts.
At this moment.
A familiar voice entered everyone’s ears.
“Clan brother, why are you doing this!”
In the sky above Spirit Day City, dozens of miles away from Spirit Mountain.
A white figure walked towards them in the air.
The white figure’s steps were very slow, but every step seemed to be stepping on everyone’s hearts.
Ripples bloomed in the air under his feet, like the legendary lotus flowers that grew with each step.
Guang ‘an Sword Immortal Zhou Mubai!
” Third level of the Purple Prefecture Realm!” Yang Linyuan gasped when he saw the person.” How did his cultivation increase so quickly?!”
Yang Linyuan muttered.
But at this moment.
No one was paying attention to his words anymore. Everyone’s attention was on the white figure who was walking towards them step by step..
