Chapter 972 Traitor
After the Abbot of the Zen Buddhist Monastery spoke again.
This time, no one opposed.
Befriending Chen Yang seemed like a good choice.
Having dealt with the people from the Xuantian Cave Mansion, Chen Yang shifted his full attention to the Zhou family.
The Zhou family head trembled upon seeing that Chen Yang had killed two Grandmaster peak experts from the Xuantian Cave Mansion.
What was difficult for him to accept was that Xuan Qing, the Mansion Lord of Xuantian Cave Mansion, had already fled.
Was this still the legendary sect?
Although Chen Yang's meridians had reached their limit, he did not stop.
He could not afford to worry about the spiritual forces outside the battlefield.
He merely informed Zhou Zeyao and Liu Shu of the situation.
With the two of them by his side, he could at least hold them off for a while.
Although the Zhou family warriors had injected the serum, it was still extraordinarily difficult to defeat Chen Yang.
Just as the two sides were in a stalemate.
Zhou Zeyao made his move.
Zhou Zeyao was extremely fast and had been positioned behind the Zhou family warriors.
By the time he had dealt with three Grandmaster peak experts, the others finally reacted.
"Zhou Zeyao! What are you doing? You traitor!"
Although the Zhou family head had been suspicious of Zhou Zeyao all along, this fellow had never revealed his intentions and had not disobeyed the Zhou family's orders.
He had even passed the test of the life tablets inside the ancestral hall.
Later, after the incidents involving Zhou Lihao and Xuantian Cave Mansion, the Zhou family head had summoned the Grandmaster peak experts who had been following Zhou Zeyao.
He had truly considered Zhou Zeyao one of his own.
However, it was rumored that Zhou Zeyao had fallen into a demonic state due to some matters and was not in good mental condition, so he had not been heavily relied upon.
But in the Zhou family head's heart, he had planned to hand over the entire business in the capital to Zhou Zeyao after this matter was resolved.
Although the Southwest situation had not been handled perfectly, even without merit, there was still effort.
It was time for Zhou Zeyao's branch of the family to receive some benefits.
But the Zhou family head had never imagined that at such a critical moment, Zhou Zeyao would betray the Zhou family!
Hearing this, Zhou Zeyao chuckled, "Don't say that. Although I am Zhou Zeyao, I have no great relation with your Zhou family."
As Zhou Zeyao spoke, his hands did not stop.
The sudden burst of powerful energy left those around him unable to react.
Zhou Zeyao had never been famous in the Zhou family. If it weren't for the Southwest incident, his name would never have caught their attention.
But when Zhou Zeyao made his move, they understood that this fellow had been hiding his strength all along!
"Why!"
The Grandmaster peak expert who had been following Zhou Zeyao closely clutched his abdominal wound and looked at Zhou Zeyao in shock.
He couldn't understand why Zhou Zeyao would suddenly betray them.
Zhou Zeyao looked at him helplessly. Of all the people in the Zhou family, who had the best relationship with him?
It was naturally this fellow with whom he had been constantly strategizing and fighting!
Zhou Zeyao had not wanted to fight him, but he had no choice. This fellow was a standout among the Grandmaster peak experts of the Zhou family.
"Don't worry, I will do my best to protect your descendants," Zhou Zeyao could only offer his answer in the end.
This was all he could do.
Watching the regret and unwillingness in the other's eyes gradually fade, Zhou Zeyao then collected the corpse into the spatial storage of his Tree Mound Necklace.
The Zhou family had instantly lost several more Grandmaster peak experts.
The Zhou family head never expected that even with the Zhou family warriors having taken the serum, they still couldn't defeat Chen Yang.
"No! The Zhou family cannot disappear here!"
With that thought, the Zhou family head transmitted a message to the others.
A moment later, a thunderous roar echoed throughout Qingzhou City.
The trembling warriors in Qingzhou City all felt a jolt upon hearing this sound.
This commotion was no longer something that only Grandmaster peak experts could produce!
The spiritual forces outside the battlefield also widened their eyes upon witnessing this scene.
"The Zhou family has some backbone, actually self-destructing!"
The self-destruction of a Grandmaster peak expert would naturally produce immense destructive power.
Let alone the fact that the Zhou family warriors had all taken the serum.
The power generated by their self-destruction even shattered the villa's defensive formation.
Fei Zilin, unable to dodge in time, was directly struck in the heart.
Spitting out a mouthful of blood containing his essence, the Zhou family warrior beside him immediately seized the opportunity.
"Big Brother!"
"Zilin!"
Fei Zijin, Zhuo Zehan, and Wu Hanyu saw this and wanted to rush to help, but they were too far away and were being held back, unable to reach him in time.
In a daze, Fei Zilin saw the figure of the Zhou family warrior. By the time he tried to block, it was already too late.
The Zhou family warrior struck out with his palm. Fortunately, with the shouts of Fei Zijin and the other two, Fei Zilin hastily dodged, and the palm only hit his shoulder.
However, even a blow to the shoulder caused a severe injury.
In an instant, the successive injuries almost caused Fei Zilin to faint.
Fei Zilin's injury, like a chain reaction, caused a wave of chaos.
Seeing this, Chen Yang forcibly activated his Heavenly Star Secret Technique. The moment he caught Fei Zilin, he sent him back to Fei Zijin and the other two.
As for the other Zhou family warriors, they charged directly towards Chen Yang and the others.
"Boom, boom, boom!"
A series of explosions and powerful fluctuations even attracted the attention of several spiritual forces outside the battlefield.
"What is the Zhou family trying to do? Can their warriors afford to expend themselves like this?" Everyone was somewhat puzzled. No matter how many warriors the Zhou family had, this method of self-destruction was truly shocking.
Cultivating a Grandmaster peak expert took at least several decades.
The Zhou family's original numerous warriors, after taking the serum, were comparable to the strongest sects.
But now, with each Grandmaster peak expert lost, the Zhou family's strength weakened.
If they were the Zhou family head, they would certainly not make such a choice.
"No, these fellows' spiritual forces have not disappeared!"
Old Monster Zhang was the first to detect something amiss.
No one had noticed this at first.
Upon Old Monster Zhang's reminder, everyone finally realized.
After self-destruction, theoretically, spiritual forces should not remain but should dissipate during the explosion, or even cause a spiritual shock.
However, the spiritual forces of these Zhou family warriors had suddenly vanished.
It was not like the dissipation of spiritual forces during self-destruction, but rather they had disappeared out of thin air.
Not only did they sense the problem, but Chen Yang also reacted immediately.
However, this was not the time to worry about that.
