Chapter 749 Return
Chen Yang was not masochistic. It was just that the place the Zhou family ancestor wanted to shatter was Chen Yang's heart.
After being strengthened by the chaotic energy, Chen Yang was eager to know how much of the bronze cauldron's power he had yet to unlock!
The previous blow made Chen Yang fully aware of the bronze cauldron's formidable strength.
Just as Chen Yang's heart was about to be struck, several bronze cauldrons suddenly shielded his heart.
The immense impact force did not cause Chen Yang's heart any pain whatsoever.
The Zhou family ancestor's power was entirely absorbed by the bronze cauldron!
Upon seeing this, the Zhou family ancestor's eyes trembled.
Although he had many doubts about Chen Yang in his heart, he understood that if he did not unleash his true power in this fierce battle, it would likely end without a conclusion.
Seeing that the two showed no signs of stopping, Zhou Zeyao's gaze immediately fell upon the other members of the Zhou family.
The Zhou family wanted to eliminate Zhou Zeyao and Chen Yang, and Zhou Zeyao was equally eager to silence these people.
"Chen Yang, oh Chen Yang! You truly can't stay quiet for a moment. Don't you know when to reveal yourself and when not to?"
At this moment, Zhou Zeyao was grinding his teeth in anger.
Chen Yang was so young, yet possessed such immense power and considerable combat experience. It was evident he had forged his way forward step by step.
Someone like him should deeply understand the meaning of caution!
If they did not resolve all these people from the Zhou family today, and this matter were to be exposed, not only the Zhou family but likely others would also come for Chen Yang!
Even Zhou Zeyao himself now wanted to drag Chen Yang aside and question him thoroughly!
With that punch earlier, even if Chen Yang hadn't been heavily injured, he wouldn't be standing there as if nothing had happened.
Either he had something to protect himself, or he possessed a special technique!
A peak Grandmaster, by all rights, should not be able to surpass the limits of human capability.
But Chen Yang had not only achieved it but had also significantly surpassed it.
The Zhou family's consistent display of such formidable power had already shocked Zhou Zeyao.
Chen Yang's ability to withstand those two blows unharmed was far beyond Zhou Zeyao's expectations.
Zhou Zeyao suddenly recalled Xu Qingquan's words: regardless of the era, he was a genius.
Whether it was Chen Yang or the Zhou family ancestor, if placed in that era, they would likely be peerless cultivators!
Zhou Zeyao considered himself a genius in his previous life, but now, compared to Chen Yang and the Zhou family ancestor before him, he felt like he was just average.
This thought, as soon as it entered Zhou Zeyao's mind, immediately made him anxious.
Zhou Zeyao had always harbored a certain sense of superiority. After all, the knowledge in his mind was something others could never comprehend.
Even Xu Qingquan was merely a disciple of a sect.
In his previous life, Zhou Zeyao was a true overlord of a region. Although his personality was somewhat timid, his status was undeniable. The things he knew were as vast as the sea.
But after witnessing the battle between these two, Zhou Zeyao felt that his slight sense of superiority had been shattered!
"Chen Yang, oh Chen Yang, how much more are you hiding!"
While these people were fighting, both the Southwest Prefecture and the Zhu family received news.
The Zhu family, in particular, sensed the fluctuations of the battle.
"Peak Grandmaster!"
A flicker of intensity appeared in Zhu Wenyu's eyes. This was the power he had once dreamed of.
Since his legs were crippled, Zhu Wenyu had always believed he would never be able to possess such strength again. He had no interest in battles between martial artists, dedicating his entire focus to the Zhu family.
After meeting Chen Yang last time and undergoing treatment for his legs, Zhu Wenyu's inner fire was rekindled.
"Fifth brother! Fifth brother, we just received news of activity from the mine!"
Although they couldn't see the destruction caused by peak Grandmaster combat, the fluctuations in aura could, to some extent, affect perceptive martial artists.
Coupled with the fact that the Zhou family's mine was always a place heavily guarded by the Zhu family, they were naturally the first to receive the news.
"I know. Send a few uncles over, but it's best not to get involved in the fighting!"
"Has the Southwest Prefecture sent anyone?"
Old Master Zhu saw that his fifth son seemed to know everything, and a stone in his heart was put down.
"No news has come yet, but I suspect if it is indeed a battle between peak Grandmasters, it would require Nan Zhu himself to act."
Upon hearing this, Zhu Wenyu's face showed a wry smile. Others didn't know where Nan Zhu was now, but how could he not know.
Nan Zhu, as the God of War of the Southwest region, should indeed appear at this time, but he had already gone to Qingzhou City!
As the two spoke, Zhu Que also walked in.
"The activity at the mine, I need manpower to go there!" Zhu Que's voice was urgent.
Zhu Wenyu immediately sensed something was wrong.
Since Zhu Que's return, she had been dealing with internal affairs of the Zhu family.
Zhu Wenyu had also intended to use this opportunity for everyone to get acquainted with Zhu Que.
But now, the sudden battle at the mine causing such a strong reaction from Zhu Que was truly uncharacteristic of her usually calm demeanor.
"What's wrong? Do you know someone at the Zhou family mine? If you're talking about the Shi family, they've already entered Nanlong City. Even if ordinary people are affected, it's the Southwest Prefecture's responsibility. The Zhu family can only handle the aftermath, as it's the Zhou family's territory."
As Zhu Wenyu spoke, Old Master Zhu remained silent. He also understood the underlying meaning in his fifth son's words.
Faced with such a question, Zhu Que's eyes flickered, but sensing the intermittent battle fluctuations, she knew she had to go.
The familiar aura of the Celestial Venerable made Zhu Que unable to calm her mind.
"I want all the Grandmasters of the Zhu family to go to the mine with me! If we can take this opportunity to drive out the Zhou family, wouldn't that be great!" Zhu Que's voice was extremely firm.
Zhu Wenyu, however, shook his head, "What's the use of so many Grandmasters? If they aren't peak Grandmasters, it's useless."
Sending the entire Zhu family would be something no fool would agree to.
After speaking, Zhu Wenyu suddenly thought of something: "Where is Chen Yang now?"
Zhu Que did not answer, but the worry in her eyes was evident.
Zhu Wenyu looked at Zhu Que with disbelief, and asked word by word, "Chen Yang is fighting the Zhou family at this time? Didn't we agree before that if we were to fight, we would act together!"
"As the Saintly Healer Celestial Venerable of the Hall of Heavenly Physicians, how can you not keep your word!"
Upon learning that it was Chen Yang fighting the Zhou family, Zhu Wenyu could no longer hold back.
