This night, the Zhang family was destined not to be peaceful.
The Zhang family has stood in Zifeng City for many years, and its discipline and execution ability are indeed unquestionable. Just after Zhang Tong crushed the sound transmission bead, almost within a hundred breaths, the entire Zhang family mobilized to arrest them collectively. Capture the escaping Qingyu and Lin Shenxin.
Of course, the ordinary servants of the Zhang family would only help explore the grass, light torches, etc. The real arrests would have to rely on the many blood-tempering warriors under the Zhang family and those elders with profound cultivation.
But under such a large-scale arrest, the two people were still missing without a trace until the sky was dim.
When the sun rose, Zhang Juntan and another Zhang family elder who went to chase Qingyu came back with gloomy faces. Although they did not explain clearly, their faces said everything.
"Brother, where is that little beast?"
As soon as he entered the Zhang family, Zhang Juntan asked coldly to the head of the Zhang family who was welcoming him.
When they were chasing Qingyu before, although they didn't catch him, they still kept him within their field of vision. They got close to him several times as short as a hundred meters. This distance was enough for him to see. Qingyu escaped alone, without his little apprentice.
After this calculation, that little beast named Lin Shengsheng must still be in the Zhang family!
One night is enough for the Zhang family to dig three feet into the ground, let alone a thirteen-year-old child?
"That little guy? Juntan...Wudu...you...come with me!" Seeing Zhang Juntan returning empty-handed, the face of the head of the Zhang family seemed a little ugly, but he did not say anything about Lin immediately. The whereabouts of Derivatives led Zhang Juntan and another elder to the alchemy room.
"Junxi? Why are you here too...what is this!?"
As soon as he entered the alchemy room, Zhang Juntan saw the overturned medicine cauldron and the unconscious guards on the floor.
Zhang Junxi, who had already been alerted and came out of seclusion, was standing in front of Zhang Tong, who was wrapped like a rice dumpling, his face as sinking as water.
Zhang Juntan was immediately frightened and angry. Could someone be taking advantage of the situation?
Who has such courage?
"Brother! Who is it? The Bai family? Or the Xu family?"
The resentment in his heart completely exploded at this moment. Zhang Juntan looked at the head of the Zhang family with a cold face and asked in a cold voice.
But the head of the Zhang family looked puzzled and didn't say a word.
"Third Grandpa, you'd better ask him."
Zhang Junxi said in a low voice at this time.
"Zhang Tong? What's going on? Who beat you like this?"
Zhang Juntan looked at Zhang Tong, his eyes filled with emotion. Although he had been bandaged, Zhang Tong's serious injuries could not be covered up.
Zhang Tong can be regarded as his cousin. Although his cultivation is average, he is shrewd and very capable. Zhang Juntan still thinks highly of him.
But now... he is being beaten like this?
"Third uncle..." Zhang Tong opened his eyes slightly, as if he didn't dare to look at Zhang Juntan: "I..."
"Don't be afraid! Tell me! Third uncle will definitely help you find this place!"
"Yes...it's the child next to Qingyu!" Zhang Tong hesitated, seeming a little embarrassed to speak.
"What! That little thing? How is that possible!? Are you sure?"
There was a look of deep astonishment on Zhang Juntan's face. He stepped forward, grabbed Zhang Tong, and shouted.
"That's right, Third Grandpa."
Zhang Junxi said coldly: "It's that boy!"
"How is this possible?" Zhang Juntan directly interrupted Zhang Junxi: "How come Zhang Tong has the ninth level of body training, how could he lose to a brat?"
"This is indeed the case... But Zhang Tong has been injured by Qingyu before, and he is facing a little baby. It is inevitable that he will underestimate the enemy. It is not impossible to be defeated because of this." The head of the Zhang family sighed.
"Grandpa, I'm afraid things are not that simple, right?" Zhang Junxi sneered: "No matter what, Zhang Tong has the ninth level of body training. No matter how much he underestimates the enemy, he will not be beaten so miserably!"
As he spoke, he glanced at Zhang Tong, walked to him, and pressed his palm on his collapsed chest.
"I broke your sternum with one palm. This kind of power must be at least 1,800 kilograms, right? Judging from the appearance of those purple heart trees, that boy is probably practicing martial arts such as dragon tail swinging, but his own strength, He weighs at least 800 kilograms! That is...the seventh level of body training...or even the eighth level?" Zhang Junxi took a deep breath, and his face seemed to have returned to calmness, but with every word he said, his palm pressed on Zhang Tong's chest, But he unconsciously worked harder.
Zhang Tong, who was already seriously injured, was so pressed that his face was covered in pain and sweat, but when he looked at Zhang Junxi, he didn't dare to say a word.
Because he knew that Zhang Junxi must be extremely furious at this time. At this time, the calmer he looks, the more terrifying he is!
"More importantly... he seems to be only thirteen or fourteen years old! Haha... haha... what a genius! Haha!"
Click!
The vitality gathered unconsciously in Zhang Junxi's palm, instantly breaking Zhang Tong's newly connected bones again!
"ah!"
Under the severe pain, Zhang Tong could no longer bear it, screamed and passed out again.
When Zhang Juntan and the head of the Zhang family saw this scene, they looked at each other and sighed secretly.
They knew that Zhang Junxi was so angry that it must not only be because of the blood clotting grass!
More probably, it's because of the majestic revelation called "Lin Shengsheng".
At the age of thirteen, he was able to reach the seventh or even eighth level of physical training. With such talent, he undoubtedly surpassed Zhang Junxi by several blocks.
As elders who have watched Zhang Junxi grow up, they naturally know Zhang Junxi's temper. Zhang Junxi is extremely talented and practices hard. He has long been determined to go to Lei Xiaowu Mansion, get out of Zifeng City, and strive for a bright future!
But before he left Purple Maple City, he was severely beaten by an unknown little guy. How could he swallow this tone?
"snort!"
Zhang Junxi ignored Zhang Tong who passed out, and did not look at the head of the Zhang family or Zhang Juntan. He walked straight to the medicine cauldron and grabbed the blood-coagulating grass.
The mysterious elixir that once caused him to be counterattacked by the evil spirit even if he got close to it, now held it in his hand, but it could only make him feel a slight chill.
"It is indeed useless!"
Zhang Junxi directly put the blood clotting grass into his mouth, chewed it and swallowed it. As expected, the blood clotting grass that should help him break through the blood quenching only made his whole body slightly warm and had no other effect.
In other words, the blood clotting grass he carefully prepared was just gone!
"call……"
Zhang Junxi clenched his fists tightly, and the veins on his forehead popped out, showing that he was extremely angry.
He didn't expect that this time he just wanted to use Qingyu as cannon fodder, but in the end, the "cannon" he had prepared so carefully was taken away by others!
"Grandpa, Third Grandpa, what do you think we should do next?"
He turned his head and tried his best to look at the two elders calmly, but in his extreme anger, this calmness became even more distorted.
"Junxi..." When did Zhang Juntan see his grandson suffer such a big loss? He immediately snorted: "Don't worry, Third Grandpa will mobilize manpower to help you take down..."
"There are still a few Huangjie top-quality medicinal herbs in the family. Junxi, please take them first and use them." The head of the Zhang family suddenly pressed Zhang Juntan's shoulders and comforted Zhang Junxi: "Don't worry, even if the blood coagulation grass is gone, , the family will also help you collect medicinal materials these days to help you break through."
"Thank you very much, Grandpa." Zhang Junxi nodded, but the coldness in his eyes did not weaken at all.
The best elixir of the Yellow Order?
He has already eaten that kind of thing. The more he takes the same kind of elixir, the stronger his resistance becomes and the weaker the effect!
In other words, without the blood-coagulating grass, even if the Zhang family tries their best to help, he may not be able to complete the breakthrough and enter the realm of blood-quenching!
But without the cultivation of the Blood Tempering Realm, the Lei Xiaowu Mansion...
"Don't worry, Junxi. Even if you don't break through the blood quenching, the probability of entering the Lei Xiaowu Mansion is very high."
The head of the Zhang family comforted him again and left with Zhang Juntan.
"Brother, why did you stop me just now?"
After leaving the alchemy room, Zhang Juntan looked at the head of the Zhang family and asked in confusion.
"Juntan..." The head of the Zhang family shook his head: "We'd better not pursue the matter of those two people any further."
"What? Brother you? If I don't give an explanation for this matter, where will the majesty of my Zhang family be?"
Zhang Juntan's old face was full of confusion, as if he didn't understand why his eldest brother made such a decision.
"I asked Wudu about the process of your pursuit of Qingyu."
But the head of the Zhang family didn't answer the question and just shook his head.
"You and Wudu chased him all night, and were even within a thousand meters of him. This is probably not a coincidence."
"Isn't it a coincidence?" Zhang Juntan chuckled: "He is a blood-tempering warrior..."
Zhang Juntan's voice stopped suddenly, as if he had realized something.
"I also hope that he is just a blood-tempering warrior, but how can a blood-tempering warrior withstand the evil aura of the blood-coagulating grass? Can he even secretly absorb the blood-coagulating grass?"
"Is it possible... that he has some special treasure?"
The head of the Zhang family sighed: "This is also possible, but... I am more inclined to him and hide my strength!"
Zhang Juntan's face was slightly wrinkled and his heart was surging. Was he hiding his strength? You can hide your strength in front of them. Your true strength must be at least a level higher than theirs, right?
"That's actually not my biggest worry."
But Zhang Juntan's horror was not over yet. The head of the Zhang family came over with words: "If he really hides his strength, with such a level of cultivation, it is unlikely that he is an independent person with no family or sect."
"I heard that during your pursuit, his movements were very strange?"
Zhang Juntan nodded solemnly: "It should be a physical and martial skill. The level of sophistication must be higher than my Zhang family's "Liu Yun Xing"!"
"Sure enough..." The head of the Zhang family sighed heavily: "Martial skills may be acquired by him by chance, but even his apprentices have such talents, plus there may be some abilities to resist and ingest blood clotting grass. The essence of the treasure, all things put together, it can’t be a coincidence, right?”
Zhang Juntan's face finally turned ugly. He finally understood the concerns of the head of the Zhang family.
Treasures, strength, martial arts, and bloodline, these add up to the foundation!
The heritage of a powerful sect alone!
In Lei Xiao Divine Kingdom, the word "zong" mainly refers to clan, that is, family, and the family line of ancestors. To put it bluntly, it means some families with strong inheritance and heritage or the union of multiple families.
The members of these families are powerful, and they often unite with many strong people. With the accumulation and establishment of so many strong people from generation to generation, they can often build a huge foundation!
The most powerful "sect" in Leixiao Divine Kingdom is naturally the royal family of the Divine Kingdom, but other sects should not be underestimated.
These sects often have a history of a thousand or even thousands of years, and among them there are countless strong people, and their inheritance is rich, which is far beyond what their Zhang family can match.
The Zhang family is just a small family. They don't even dare to call themselves kings and hegemons in Zifeng City. If they were placed in Tiannan County, they would only be considered good.
To put it bluntly, if you really provoke some terrifying sects, you can send a few strong men at will, and they can push the Zhang family to the ground!
Thinking that Qingyu might have such a background, Zhang Juntan felt chills all over. This kind of plot really irritated his old heart.
A master lives in seclusion in the world of mortals, encounters a young genius by chance, falls in love with talents, and teaches the latter to become talented step by step. This seems to be in line with the routines of those martial arts novels.
But... could this kind of story in folk biographical novels really happen?
"Could it be just a coincidence? If it comes from the sect, what does he want from us?" Zhang Juntan was still a little unwilling to give up.
"I also hope it's a coincidence, but as far as I know, the wife of Qingyu disappeared in Tai'an Town last night." The head of the Zhang family whispered.
"Missing?" Zhang Juntan was surprised.
"Yes, the two blood-tempering warriors I sent to look at him didn't find out how she disappeared, and at this time..." The head of the Zhang family took a long breath: "It can't be a coincidence, right?"
Zhang Juntan suddenly didn't dare to speak anymore. If there were too many coincidences, it would no longer be a coincidence!
Even though they were still not sure whether Qingyu really came from a powerful sect, this suspicion was enough to stop them from taking any rash action.
Because, if one thing is not handled well, that will be the end of the family being destroyed!
"Brother, what about us now?" he asked in a low voice.
"Let's leave it as it is regarding the Blood Coagulation Grass. It's just a mysterious medicinal plant. My Zhang family can't afford to lose it." The head of the Zhang family shook his head.
"What about Junxi?"
"Let nature take its course... Anyway... even if there is no Blood Coagulation Grass, he should be able to enter Lei Xiaowu Mansion."
There is no doubt about Zhang Junxi's talent. He is not the legitimate son of the Zhang family, but he has climbed to the position of the young master of the Zhang family because of his outstanding talent.
The two old men have always been very optimistic about him.
Just his performance today...
Recalling Zhang Junxi's previous ferocious attitude and distortion, the head of the Zhang family frowned, as if... he was still a little disappointed.
