Chapter 148: Confronting the Gong Family, Can I Kill Someone?
The moon was bright and the stars were sparse.
The Cold Intent in Chen Yan's heart grew increasingly intense.
Compared to the overt suppression from Chu Feiyuan.
This invisible blockade.
Was more lethal, more terrifying, and more sinister.
Chen Yan looked up at the sky.
Could it be that Fate had decreed that both he and Chen Min of the Lao City Chen Family, as Broken Limit Awakeners, must inevitably clash?
The Tianjiao Trial in every city of Qinzhou began at the exact same moment.
For this trial, Lao City had even prepared an Ice Spirit on the verge of Dragon Transformation for Chen Min.
When that time came, it would be the moment of Chen Min's Hundred Meridians.
It was the most critical moment for them, these Broken Limit Awakeners, to engage in the Minzhe Struggle.
The Lao City Chen Family probably did not know that the Side Branch they had been suppressing all along was now one of the few people most threatening to their own Clan Internal Heavenly Pride.
Chen Yu spoke quietly, every detail aligning with Chen Yan's hypothesis.
To them, the Lao Chen were a behemoth.
But the massive Lao City Chen Family was, in front of the Five Clan Chen Family, likewise merely a bug.
To the Five Clan Chen Family, all Side Branches of the Chen Family were bugs; they couldn't be bothered to care, only occasionally picking a few strong bugs to cultivate.
This was a cultivation game.
The Lao City Chen Family would do anything to become stronger, but one could not disrupt the order of the game itself.
"So, the person secretly blocking us, Brother and Sister, is just a dog of the Lao City Chen Family."
Chen Yan spoke:
"It's just that this dog of theirs messed up this time; not only did they fail to successfully block us, Brother and Sister.
Their own identity was also exposed."
Chen Yu nodded:
"Exposing their identity is the most lethal thing for the Lao City Chen Family.
Once this matter reaches the ears of the Five Clan Chen Family, the Lao City Chen Family will become the one who disrupted the order.
Therefore, the Lao City Chen Family will certainly not hand them over to Vice Chief Shen."
Chen Yan slightly raised his chin.
Afterward, Chen Yan looked at his sister.
With a *slap*.
A palm landed lightly.
"You didn't tell me sooner."
Chen Yu instantly looked like she was about to cry, rubbing her head:
"I wanted to let Brother cultivate in peace and attract the attention of the person in the shadows myself, who knew..."
Chen Yu muttered, who knew Brother would rise so dazzlingly.
Chen Yan rubbed Chen Yu's head, messing up her hair.
"Ouch!" Chen Yu cried out.
Chen Yan was caught between laughter and tears, quickly restrained his smile:
"You joined the Gong Family; do you know where that person in the shadows is?"
"Brother, you..." Chen Yu was surprised.
She had already explained the cause and effect to Chen Yan.
Now she felt that since Lao Ge knew, there was no need to pay attention to that person in the shadows anymore.
Yet, although she thought this, Chen Yu did not disobey what Lao Ge said; with a wave of her hand, streaks of Golden Light flowed out, drawing a map.
"I searched for them in secret, so naturally I know."
Chen Yu drew the map, finally placing a dot on the image of a room:
"Right here."
Chen Yan nodded and Stood Up:
"Alright, withdraw from the Gong Family."
Chen Yu was stunned and hurriedly shook her head; the Gong Family was targeting Lao Ge.
"Withdraw!" Chen Yan said earnestly.
"Brother, I still have to participate in the Tianjiao Trial..." Chen Yu lowered her head.
Within the Tianjiao Trial, who knew what kind of struggle it would be.
It was not false that she worried about Lao Ge.
Naturally, Lao Ge wanted her to be safe, and how could she not want Lao Ge to be safe?
Moreover, her teacher also wanted her to enter the Tianjiao Trial.
Chen Yan fell into Silence, a complex feeling weaving within his heart, indescribable.
"Xiaoyu, you still underestimate your brother." Chen Yan spoke and turned to leave.
Tomorrow, he would go with Shen Yiwei to the Gong Family for negotiations.
Chen Yu stood up with her head lowered and followed closely.
Chen Yan stopped several times, Chen Yu stopped, and seeing Chen Yan continue walking, she followed quietly.
"What's wrong?"
In the courtyard, Chen Yuhu, who was sitting in the yard smoking a Cigarette, saw the brother and sister return just like that and spoke up in surprise.
Had a conflict?
Chen Yan entered the room silently.
"Xiaoyu, did you make your Brother angry?" Chen Yuhu looked toward his daughter, but saw Chen Yu only shaking her head and entering the room without a word.
Inside the room, a trace of confusion appeared in Chen Yan's eyes.
Had he been a bit too strict in disciplining his Sister?
His Sister was also a genius.
But the growth of a genius is always accompanied by all sorts of dangers.
Was that Woman, his Sister's Master, ultimately good or bad?
How much had he actually been seen through by the other party?
Fortunately, the matter of his SoulRefining had not been exposed; he still had a backup plan.
Knock, knock, knock.
The room door was knocked.
Chen Yuhu's voice sounded from outside.
"It's the middle of summer, what are you doing cooped up in the room? Dad cut some watermelon and bought a few bottles of Wine, come out and chat for a while."
Chen Yan walked out of the room and was pulled into the courtyard by Chen Yuhu.
A basin of cut watermelon was displayed in the basin, plump and juicy.
Chen Yu glanced at Chen Yan, then pouted and said nothing.
Chen Yan sat down, and a slice of watermelon was carefully handed over by Chen Yu.
Chen Yan took the watermelon and was about to take a bite.
"Ah-woo!"
He saw that the very center part had already been bitten off by Chen Yu with lightning speed.
"How old are you, still snatching watermelon from your Brother? Isn't there plenty more?" Chen Yuhu scolded with a laugh.
Chen Yu chewed the watermelon, a Smile appearing in her eyes.
Her peripheral vision carefully noticed Chen Yan's side, and she saw a trace of a Smile also appearing at the corners of Chen Yan's mouth.
Chen Yu was finally at ease and handed over another slice of watermelon.
Chen Yan took it and ate the melon quietly.
…………
"In the end, you've grown up."
Inside the room, Chen Yan murmured.
He shook his head.
Xiaomei was doing this for his own good now.
Having a Master with powerful strength, in terms of safety...
Chen Yan, when it came down to it, could not immediately trust that Woman.
Chen Yu was only fifteen years old, and the cognitive gap between them was immense.
But so far, everything was looking up.
Chen Yan's Mu Guang was low and deep.
Tomorrow, he would go with Shen Yiwei to the Gong Family for negotiations.
That person in the shadows had found protection with the Gong Family, and once the Strong Ones of the Lao City Chen Family arrived...
Everything would pass as if it had never happened.
【Break-Saint Tree (Level Five): 2/50
Force: 1/100
Blood: 24/100
Technique: 97/100
Body: 93/100
Array: 1/100
Origin: 0/100】
One day had already passed.
Today, he had not practiced his Cultivation Technique for most of the time, so the growth of the Break-Saint Tree had also stagnated for half a day.
Observing the Break-Saint Tree, which was now robust and resembled a pillar supporting Heaven, a trace of a Smile appeared at the corners of Chen Yan's mouth.
Both the 【Technique】 Character Sacred Fruit and the 【Body】 Character Sacred Fruit were on the verge of maturity.
The 【Body】 Character Sacred Fruit matured extremely quickly because Chen Yan was constantly practicing 【Heavenly Patrol】.
And the 【Technique】 Character was because Chen Yan had entered the Dao and comprehended his own unique External Forging Ultimate Technique.
【Break Void】!
To shatter all falsehoods and Malice.
With a single Fist, by compressing the air and combining it with Fist Intent, one could erupt with powerful energy in an instant.
It was called an External Forging Ultimate Technique.
Chen Yan preferred to call this a True Intent Method.
Because 【Break Void】 was an Ultimate Technique triggered by Fist Intent.
If one had to determine its grade...
It should be Qingqiong Grade C-Class.
However, unlike ordinary Martial Techniques, 【Void-Breaking】 is a unique move developed solely by Chen Yan.
Therefore, from the very beginning.
Chen Yan's mastery of 【Void-Breaking】 was one hundred percent.
That is to say, reaching the level of Subtlety.
As Chen Yan continues to develop it, 【Void-Breaking】 will only become more powerful, and its grade will also continuously rise.
Looking at it now, 【Void-Breaking】 is Chen Yan's strongest move.
Because Chen Yan's own physical strength has already surpassed the Unity Realm.
For a Half-Step Fourth Stage Ancient Beast, 【Void-Breaking】 means an instant kill.
There is also the Extreme Satin Pattern.
Chen Yan's Mu Guang flashed, and Grain Marks emerged all over his body.
Thirty-Sixth Power Pattern, thirty-three Bone Patterns, thirty-one Skin Patterns, and thirty-three Tendon Patterns.
One hundred and thirty-three in total!
The Power Pattern, in particular, allowed Chen Yan to reach the Boundary Limit of his Cultivation Realm at a certain moment.
Is the Boundary Limit thirty-six?
Chen Yan's Mu Guang flickered.
When he surpassed eighteen in Tendon, Bone, Skin, and Power, he also felt the Boundary Limit of his Cultivation Realm.
The question is, is this Chen Yan's Limit?
Chen Yan's Mu Guang tightened, and a flash of brilliance emerged.
He closed his eyes and began Meditation.
Meditation on the Technique skills of 【Void-Breaking】.
Currently, the Ji Character Fruit has already reached ninety-seven percent; it is the Fruit closest to maturity.
…………
…………
The next day, in the afternoon.
Military Martial Guard.
Chen Yan stood before Shen Yiwei.
"Chen Yan, accompany me to the negotiation today; you need not be nervous."
Shen Yiwei spoke, looking at Chen Yan.
"Mm." Chen Yan nodded, cold light appearing within his narrowed Frost Mo.
This was originally a matter between him and the person in the shadows.
This Gong Family insists on interfering; do they think he, Chen Yan, is easy to bully?
Last night, Chen Yan practiced his Cultivation Technique all night.
The Ji Character Fruit, which had already reached ninety-seven percent, had only grown by one point overnight.
Such efficiency.
It has nothing to do with Chen Yan's aptitude.
It is about his state of mind.
"You must have learned of some things." Shen Yiwei scrutinized Chen Yan, feeling that Chen Yan's state at this moment was clearly not right.
Chen Yan remained in Silence, and only spoke after a while:
"May I kill?"
Chen Yan's voice was low.
Only when saying this sentence did he feel an indescribable sense of gratification in his heart.
Shen Yiwei was taken aback, looking at Chen Yan for a long time this time.
Suddenly.
"Hahahahaha!"
Shen Yiwei burst into Laughter, Tears even appearing at the corners of his eyes as he looked toward the Heaven.
"I truly did not expect this."
Shen Yiwei slowly shook his head, as if meeting Chen Yan for the first time:
"My decisiveness is actually not as good as that of a Seventeen-year-old Youth."
His voice grew lower and lower, then he looked at Chen Yan:
"You may!"
Whoosh!
A gust of Wind Element wrapped around Chen Yan and Shen Yiwei, and the two went straight up into the clouds.
