Chapter 2395: Chapter 2384: Are You Aware of Your Crime?
Looking at the two trembling old men in front of him,
Ye Chenfeng felt somewhat amused inside. He said, "Can you find out the locations of the Wus and the Jiangs from the Medicine Saint Hall or the Artifact Saint Hall?"
Zhang Yingnian and Zhang Yingshui looked troubled.
Zhang Yingshui said, "Clan Leader, although we know people from the Medicine Saint Hall and the Artifact Saint Hall, those guys are stubborn. The Wus and the Jiangs you mentioned should be one of the Six Great Hidden Sects, right?"
"In the eyes of the Medicine Saint Hall, the Wu family is a holy land, and similarly, the Jiang family is a holy land in the eyes of the Artifact Saint Hall. It’s almost impossible to get information about the Wus and the Jiangs from them, but we’ll give it a try."
Zhang Yingnian bowed deeply, "Clan Leader, we are truly ashamed. This is the first task you’ve assigned to us, and we can’t guarantee a one-hundred-percent completion. Please do grant us punishment."
Ye Chenfeng was helpless with these two old men who kept asking for punishment. His brow suddenly furrowed as he remembered something. He had forced his way in here, so someone with ill intentions should know he was staying in Cheng Meizhen’s courtyard. He thought to himself ’Not good’ and said to Zhang Yingnian and Zhang Yingshui, "You two come with me to the Zhang Family’s outer courtyard immediately."
Having said that,
Ye Chenfeng then swept out of the stone chamber.
Zhang Yingnian and Zhang Yingshui, although not knowing why Ye Chenfeng was in such a hurry, still followed closely behind him.
At this moment, in the Zhang Family’s outer courtyard,
within the courtyard where Cheng Meizhen resided.
Earlier, due to the commotion caused by Ye Chenfeng in the outer courtyard, the people of Cheng Meizhen’s branch were relocated out of the inner courtyard shortly after. Naturally, they didn’t have the mood to join the excitement. But not long after, the inner and outer courtyards of the Zhang Family surrounded Cheng Meizhen’s courtyard tightly.
All the members of Cheng Meizhen’s branch gathered in her courtyard.
Cheng Yuanmu, Cheng Yiyao, and the old steward stood beside Cheng Meizhen, while Cheng Meizhen’s direct descendant, their genius Zhang Chengwen, stood on her right side, full of anger.
Besides Cheng Meizhen and the others, five fallen old ancestors of the Zhang Family were also here.
Among them, an ancestor at the Half-step Divine Venerable level stood at the forefront. His name was Zhang Zhixing.
Zhang Zhixing had, of course, noticed Ye Chenfeng rushing toward the stone chamber where Zhang Yingnian and Zhang Yingshui closed themselves in, but Ye Chenfeng was too strange, and even with his power, he couldn’t help at all.
Upon learning of Ye Chenfeng’s connection with Cheng Meizhen, he directly led others to Cheng Meizhen’s courtyard.
In case Zhang Yingnian and Zhang Yingshui couldn’t handle Ye Chenfeng, they could take Cheng Meizhen and others as hostages.
Someone from the Zhang Family had already indignantly recounted Ye Chenfeng’s actions.
This filled Cheng Meizhen and Zhang Chengwen with shock. They clearly felt that Ye Chenfeng’s strength was only at the Earth God Realm; how could he stir up such a storm within the Zhang Family?
Cheng Yuanmu, Cheng Yiyao, and the old steward looked worried. They had witnessed Ye Chenfeng’s terrifying combat power. They just didn’t know why Ye Chenfeng forced his way into the Zhang Family’s inner courtyard?
Zhang Zhixing shouted angrily, "Cheng Meizhen, does your branch know your crime?"
"How dare you bring someone with ulterior motives into our Zhang Family, your intentions are sinister! Who exactly is that young man? Confess all his background immediately!"
The aura of the Half-step Divine Venerable within Zhang Zhixing spread throughout the courtyard.
Pressing down layer by layer on Cheng Meizhen, Zhang Chengwen, and the others.
Cheng Meizhen only had the strength of a Half-step Divine King, and even Cheng Yuanmu was only at the Initial Stage of the Divine King Realm. The faces of their group turned pale instantly.
Cheng Meizhen looked at Cheng Yuanmu. Ye Chenfeng was brought by Cheng Yuanmu; could it be that Ye Chenfeng was indeed a person with ulterior motives?
"Cheng Meizhen, why don’t you quickly confess to the ancestor? You were relocated out of the inner courtyard as per the Zhang Family rules, and you want to do something harmful to the Zhang Family over this?"
"Your branch doesn’t even need to exist. Cheng Meizhen is the strongest person in your branch, yet she doesn’t even have the Zhang surname. She’s not one of our Zhang Family."
...
The voices of other Zhang Family members around them rose in the air, each speaking loudly.
The faces of Cheng Meizhen and Zhang Chengwen, among others, turned even uglier. Originally, their branch’s situation in the Zhang Family wasn’t good, and now...
Zhang Chengwen looked at Cheng Yuanmu, Cheng Yiyao, and the old steward. He wanted to say that all of this had nothing to do with his line, but Cheng Yuanmu was, after all, Cheng Meizhen’s own brother. As a junior, he couldn’t ignore his ancestor’s feelings.
Cheng Yuanmu, although not knowing Ye Chenfeng’s reason for breaking into the Zhang Family’s inner courtyard, knew that their lives were saved by Ye Chenfeng. They trusted that Ye Chenfeng must have his reasons, and they would not blame Ye Chenfeng in their hearts.
Cheng Yuanmu stood up, "The person you’re talking about is with me; this has nothing to do with my sister Cheng Meizhen, nor does it have anything to do with their branch."
After Cheng Yuanmu stood up,
Cheng Yiyao and the old steward also stood up unwaveringly.
If it weren’t for Ye Chenfeng, they wouldn’t even have the privilege to breathe now. Even if it meant dying once for Ye Chenfeng, so be it.
Zhang Zhixing, seeing Cheng Yuanmu and others standing up, sneered, "I couldn’t tell, you really are loyal and righteous. You must know who that kid is, right? Rampaging through our Zhang Family like this; do you really think our Zhang Family is a piece of meat you can carve?"
"It’s simply outrageous."
Zhang Zhixing’s figure rushed fiercely toward Cheng Yuanmu. He was holding back a stomach full of anger. He had vowed to capture Ye Chenfeng earlier but had ended up falling flat on his face. How could his mood be good?!
Of course, Zhang Zhixing wasn’t going to kill Cheng Yuanmu, as he needed hostages, and Ye Chenfeng was simply too enigmatic.
Cheng Meizhen saw Zhang Zhixing attacking her brother, and with her strength, she couldn’t stop him at all.
As Zhang Zhixing’s shadow flickered, his palm was about to grasp Cheng Yuanmu’s shoulder.
Two hurried shouts rang out: "Bastard, stop immediately."
As the voice rang,
two powerful forces directly impacted Zhang Zhixing’s body.
"Boom!" With a sound,
Zhang Zhixing’s body flew backward and once again landed face-first on the ground, falling flat on his face.
Before anyone could react, the figures of Ye Chenfeng, Zhang Yingnian, and Zhang Yingshui suddenly appeared in the courtyard. It was Zhang Yingnian and Zhang Yingshui who had just acted. They broke out in a cold sweat, and on their way to the outer courtyard, they learned some things from Ye Chenfeng’s mouth. If they hurt the Clan Leader’s friend, they wouldn’t be able to bear the consequences!
