Chapter 795: Fighting for Truth

"The Great Conquest Robbery Technique is truly exquisite and unparalleled. It allowed me to once again reach the top level of Zhou's Mysterious Skills after so many years."

Uncle Wang next to the Eighth Gentleman spoke up. He nodded to the Third Gentleman and said, "Third Brother, look, is there no more controversy?"

"Well, since Zhou Yi has confessed, there is no way to deny his guilt."

The three gentlemen nodded and said, "Now the question is, how to punish him?"

Zhou Nanwang immediately said after hearing this, "Zhou Jie's mutilation of his brothers is naturally a professional method."

With the remaining power of "Da Zheng Ti Jie Shou" and the sacred "family rules" in the minds of the tribesmen, he was invincible.

Even the Zhou clan members of Dongzong could not think of an excuse to oppose.

The aristocratic family formed a small kingdom of its own with a strict class hierarchy. It had all kinds of punishments, such as water torture and corporal punishment, and was independent of the royal law.

The three gentlemen and the eight gentlemen were all in a bad mood. The aristocratic families only knew the family rules but not the royal laws and national laws. This was undoubtedly a contempt for the royal family around them, the feudal lords.

But there is nothing we can do about it. The general environment is like this, and it’s not just the Zhou family that is like this.

"If it is the Zhou family law, I have no right to interfere, but the severity of the sentence also depends on the consequences of the crime."

As soon as the three gentlemen opened their mouths, Zhou Tianyuan and Zhou Feixing's eyes lit up immediately, and they grasped the key point.

Yes, although Zhou Yu admitted that he wanted to kill Zhou You and sent people to track him down, the assassination still failed.

Zhou Daqian was unharmed. Even if they wanted to punish him, the most they could do was to have him drink three cups of wine behind closed doors.

What a big deal!
"Zhou Nanwang, you also heard what the three gentlemen said."

Zhou Tianyuan was full of confidence, "Is your adopted son okay?"

"He's injured and has been recuperating in the other courtyard for more than half a year. How can he be fine?"

Zhou Nanwang spoke in a dissatisfied tone. At the same time, Zhou You also coughed a few times and covered his mouth in response.

The two sides were deadlocked on the severity of the sentence. Endangering the clan members was a serious crime, involving fratricide, which was a taboo in the aristocratic family.

Therefore, murdering someone of the same clan is the most severe punishment according to family rules.

The difference is that success and attempt are two different situations. The former is subject to light punishment and severe warning, while the latter is subject to the maximum penalty.

Zhou Tianyuan bit Zhou You to death without any injury, but Zhou Nanwang insisted that Zhou You was seriously injured and neither of them was willing to give in.

Suddenly, the Eight Gentlemen spoke up, "Why not have a fight?"

The Eight Gentlemen pointed at Zhou You and Zhou Yu and said, "Whoever wins will be punished according to his or her decision!"

"But Mr. Eighth Gentleman, my adopted son is injured, so I'm afraid I can't do anything."

Zhou Nanwang said.

Zhou Tianyuan said coldly, "Okay, Zhou Nanwang, don't be so naive. Do you really want me to point out something that we all know? Where is your son Zhou Mu now?"

When Zhou Mu was mentioned, Zhou Nanwang hesitated for a moment and said, "He went out for something."

"hehe!"

Zhou Tianyuan stopped there and didn't ask any more questions.

The advice of the Eight Gentlemen was very timely. Often in such situations, stopping talking and fighting is the most efficient way to resolve disputes.

Zhou Nanwang glanced at the Eight Gentlemen and knew that he was quite thoughtful. He had previously instructed Uncle Wang to speak up for him. Now, the purpose of proposing a boxing fight was to measure Zhou You's background and find out why he was interested in Zhou You!

He couldn't help but worry. If Zhou You accidentally revealed the Grandmaster's mark, the situation would become passive.

That would be the situation he least wanted to see.

Zhou and Zhou You were standing in the martial arts arena. The ground beneath their feet was not soil or stone slabs, but was forged from precious hardware.

This is called a hardware stand, and only top families like the Zhou family can afford it!

"Zhou Daqian, your master doesn't think highly of you!"

Zhou Yu's face was full of sarcasm. "You know that once you are on the hardware stage, your life and death are not decided by others. It all depends on the outcome of the boxing fight. If I win, I will beat you to death on the spot, and Zhou Nanwang will have nothing to say."

"Hehe, Zhou Nanwang can't even take care of all his biological sons, let alone you, an adopted son."

"The Eight Gentlemen let you on stage, but they didn't take you seriously!"

Zhou You suddenly interrupted him, "Take a break. You've just been hurt by the Grandmaster's profound skills. You should take care of yourself first."

This one sentence choked Zhou Xie so much that his eyes bulged out and he couldn't say anything he had to say.

Zhou You stepped lightly on the hardware table, thinking that in order to build this venue, at least one million tons of various rare metals would be needed. The Zhou family's foundation was indeed unfathomable.

If it is melted down to forge weapons...

Well, Zhou You seemed to have guessed the logic of how the aristocratic families became powerful: they monopolized resources, weakened civilian warriors, maintained their own advantages, and used their bloodlines as a first step to nurture warriors of higher realms to maintain their status.

Damn exploiting class!
Ah, I am now a member of a noble family, and I am at the upper level, so it’s okay!
"Zhou You, stop talking nonsense. You are a bastard raised outside. I think you have never seen the power of Zhou's profound skills. I will open your eyes today!"

Zhou Xie crossed his arms, and a pitch-black light shield floated outside his body, which was the Liuli Shouguang Fist.

Oh!

Zhou You thought the color was wrong. The defensive boxing he practiced was clear and transparent like colorless glass, so why was his inky color? Could it be that different branches of boxing had different variants?
Just when I was wondering, Zhou Yi actually rolled the light shield forward to attack. His boxing style can not only defend, but also attack.

Zhou You pulled out a wooden stick from his sleeve and smashed it on the wall. "Bang!"

He did not use his knife or gun because the light shield of the Liuli Shouguang Fist was smooth and arc-shaped in its force dissipation, which was most effective against sharp weapons. Instead, blunt weapons such as sticks and hammers caused the most damage.

This stick incorporates his highest level of fighting style, it looks like a wild dance but it hits the target.

"Well, it's not the Shenhou stick!"

The three gentlemen were shocked at first when they saw Zhou You swinging the stick, but they were relieved after seeing how he moved.

Uncle Wang on the opposite side also laughed and said, "How could it be Shen Hou's Sky-piercing Unparalleled Stick? He was born in the north, and Shen Hou is far away in the southern border. There is no connection between the two."

This conversation mentioned Shen Hou, which aroused some interest among the masters.

On the hardware table!

Zhou You smashed down with his sticks, but they bounced off the pitch-black light shield, and the force returned intact. It accumulated again and again and it had reached a very dangerous point.

His wrist trembled slightly, and he thought to himself that this was a really shady boxing style, and the defense was giving the enemy a headache.

In the past, he was on the defensive, leaving the enemy with nowhere to attack. Now, as an attacker, he finally understands how his former enemies felt.

Colored glaze longevity light, perfect and perfect!
Suddenly, the pitch-black light shield suddenly cracked open, and a finger flew out, like picking up a dead leaf.

This time the change of moves was quick and sharp, and contained a killing move in the defense. Only after Zhou You practiced this style of boxing did he realize how exquisite the changes in this move were.

Black light flickered at Zhou Xie's fingertips, like a chess piece about to fall on the chessboard, and with a crisp click, the outcome would be decided.

This move is called the unique skill 'Fixing Star'.

Just at this moment, the accumulated rebound force on the wooden stick hit and exploded, causing Zhou You's arms to swing backwards.

The middle gate of his chest and abdomen was wide open, and he withstood Zhou Jie's "fixing star" one-finger fatal attack.
