Chapter 492: The Zhang Family

In the Zhang family Council Pavilion.

"The Young Master... is dead," the Second Elder, White-Browed Liu Chang, said in a deep voice.

"Hmm..." a female elder's expression was ugly, and she said in a low voice.

"The family head is traveling far away in seclusion, currently breaking through his realm; now it is us holding the fort in the family. How... should this matter be handled?" a tall elder said solemnly.

"Who exactly acted, and picked such a precise time? Could it be that he knew the family head was away?"

"We just annexed the Jiang-An Consortium and haven't even rested, yet such a big mess occurs; it's truly bad luck..."

The Great Elder sat high in the main seat, his face calm as an ancient well, his eyes flashing with sharp light.

He was extremely old, his face full of wrinkles, his forehead dark, looking like a zombie about to die.

Yet, he had maintained this posture and lived for over twenty years.

Every year, people guessed he would die, but he never died.

Every elder present knew what kind of power was contained in his body, so they were all respectful to him.

"I'm afraid... it is time to clean up the families that have had friction with us in recent years..." the Great Elder said slowly, his voice extremely aged.

"Too much time has passed, and the world has forgotten why the Zhang family is one of the three great families..."

His tone was indifferent.

But just this one sentence of his determined that people would die.

Many people would die.

"Hmm, the Baili family has sealed their mountains for many years, accumulating strength."

"The Yang family has also had much friction with us recently; it is time to act and intimidate the human world." The Second Elder stroked his beard and said.

"Should we notify the family head?" an elder asked.

"No need, the family head's breakthrough is urgent." The Great Elder waved his hand, his voice aged and hoarse.

"First, send people to capture the person who acted, lock him in the Soul Prison, and torture him for a hundred years."

"My Zhang family must take revenge for every grievance."

"If we don't do this, the damage to my Zhang family's majesty is too great!" A female elder's face was cold as she said solemnly.

If someone were present, they would definitely recognize that she was the Zhang family's female demon who dominated the world fifty years ago, Zhang Xuanrou.

Now, her strength had likely reached the seventh turn.

"This matter naturally doesn't need to be discussed; we have already sent people," an elder replied.

"Why attach such importance to it."

"Hmph, that playboy, if it weren't for him being the family head's son, I would have already acted to expel him from the family!" The Seventh Elder, Yu Lue, sneered.

"Yu Lue, you must not speak recklessly!"

"The family head is always the family head, and the Young Master is also the future heir of our Zhang family; being young means being childish, he just needs time to settle!"

A red-robed elder's face was cold as he stared at him.

In those eyes, there was even killing intent!

"Yu Lue, do you dare to say this in front of the family head?!"

"Yu Lue, are you looking for death?" The elders looked over one after another, their eyes cold.

"Yu Lue... take back those words." The Great Elder's eyes surged with a bit of threat as he said.

Upon hearing this, the Seventh Elder nodded, his smile fading as he became extremely solemn.

"Since the Great Elder says so, then I will take them back." He lowered his head and bowed.

"Sorry, elders."

He could bend and stretch, and was also the most smooth-talking among the elders.

"No matter what, we are all Zhang family members; although you all have your own interests, we are always Zhang family members, remember this!"

"Cough, cough..." the Great Elder said, coughing twice.

"Immediately investigate this matter clearly, and use all means."

"Capture the murderer and lock him in the Soul Prison..."

A series of measures were all arranged.

It could be called a net of heaven and earth.

At this moment, in a distant S-grade dungeon.

A middle-aged man wearing a luxurious green robe stood with his hands behind his back, actually standing under a golden waterfall, enduring the baptism of the violent waterfall.

The gravity of this dungeon world was countless times that of the Blue Star.

This golden water waterfall, even if a sixth-turn expert were to replace him, would be smashed into blood mud!

Under the man's feet was a golden array, flowing with brilliance, assisting the water waves in forging his body.

His face was majestic, and his eyes flashed with sharp light.

He was precisely the family head of this generation of the Zhang family, Zhang Mingjue!

At the same time, he was also Zhang Tang's father.

He hadn't handled family affairs during this period precisely to break through his realm here.

In the dark, he felt something, and in his eyes, a trace of killing intent inexplicably emerged!

"Has... something happened to the family?"

He was silent for a moment, but still decided to continue breaking through.

This body-forging array was something he had spent a great price to cast, and it could not be wasted.

"Breakthrough is urgent."

"No matter what, as long as it's not Tang'er who has an accident, it can be endured."

He said solemnly.

The strength of the family head represented the power of a family.

Therefore, his realm improvement could truly help the family.

In order to concentrate on breaking through, he even blocked all news from the family side.

Zhang Tang was dead, and Meng Qingtian's mental power was exhausted.

At this moment, in the Moon-Howling Ghost Mountain dungeon.

Beastmaster Hua Ling was shocked, and the Deer Girl Xiao Tang beside her also suddenly had her expression change slightly.

"Wha... what happened?"

"My soul slave brand seems to have disappeared."

Once these words were spoken, Hua Ling was shocked.

"Really?"

"The thunder mark placed in my body by that fifth-turn expert also seems to have dissipated; we can exit the dungeon!" ===== CHAPTER 494 =====
