Eternal Life: I Can Break Through The Limits Of All Methods

Chapter 128: Zhou Junyang's Probe

When Zhou Junyang approached, Chu Ming felt a moment of nervousness.

Even though a hundred of such people wouldn't be enough for him to fight, the other party had the potential to expose his strength.

He had to be careful in dealing with it.

Zhou Junyang smiled and raised his cup, saying, "I am Zhou Junyang from Chixiao Peak."

"You entered the sect a few years earlier than me, so I address you as senior brother."

"Senior brother Chu, congratulations!"

"Sister Li has an extraordinary appearance, and senior brother Chu is fortunate!"

Chu Ming clinked his cup with Zhou Junyang's and said, "So it's junior brother Zhou. I've heard of your name from the Dragon Gate Trial."

"I am honored that senior brother can attend my wedding banquet."

Zhou Junyang smiled apologetically, "I'm sure senior brother already knows my identity."

"I apologize for the actions of my incompetent younger brother. Please forgive me and let it not affect our relationship."

"I have prepared a generous gift just now, specifically to apologize to senior brother for my younger brother's actions. Senior brother will know when you go back and examine it carefully."

Chu Ming smiled bitterly and said, "It's nothing compared to what happened before."

"After all, the rules of the outer sect have always been like this, and I have no complaints."

"Besides, you are you, and he is he. I don't need to generalize, let's just consider everything in the past."

Zhou Junyang thanked him with a cupped hand gesture, "Thank you for your understanding, senior brother."

"By the way, there is a small favor I would like to ask senior brother for. I wonder if senior brother is willing?"

Chu Ming said, "Just tell me directly, junior brother Zhou. If I can help, I will."

Zhou Junyang turned around and took a few steps slowly.

With a worried expression, he said, "After the Dragon Gate Trial, although I received the elders' and master's appreciation."

"But my brother's heinous act of killing fellow disciples always makes me feel ashamed and brings disgrace to my family."

"If I can find him, I will personally kill him to save the disciples of the Punishment Hall from taking action."

"But he has disappeared without a trace, and there is no news at all."

"I want to ask senior brother again about the specific details of that day, to see if I can find some clues."

Chu Ming looked troubled and said, "Didn't I already explain everything clearly? You can go to the Punishment Hall to inquire, junior brother."

Zhou Junyang pleaded, "I want to hear it in more detail from you again. Maybe I can find some small details and clues."

Chu Ming sighed, "Ah, at that time, I was really terrified. Now that I think about it, I still feel lingering fear."

"But since junior brother Zhou wants to hear it, I will tell you again."

He repeated the same set of words he used back then.

He remembered this important information very clearly.

He even added some irrelevant details, but they were all insignificant and consistent with his original statement.

This made it sound more authentic, unlike something fabricated.

Zhou Junyang asked him a few more questions, and he answered casually without any flaws.

After listening, Zhou Junyang rubbed his chin and pondered, "I see..."

However, at this moment, he suddenly looked up, and his eyes were completely filled with golden flames.

Facing Chu Ming, he said, "By the way, could it be that you killed him?"

Chu Ming suddenly felt a trance, and at the same time, he felt a small part of his Spirit Partitioning Soul being surrounded by a blazing flame.

The burning sensation made him involuntarily want to tell the truth. If he didn't, it felt like his soul would be ignited by the flames.

The spiritual power he displayed at this moment was only at the level of just reaching Foundation Building, and for a moment, he felt like he had fallen into this kid's trap.

But if he completely condensed his soul to resist this mental power, it would inevitably expose his true strength.

However, in the midst of hesitation, that feeling of wanting to speak the truth involuntarily disappeared, but the burning pain in the soul still remained.

Chu Ming looked inward and saw Long Ling'er, who was suspended in the Dragon Domain space, her eyes flickering with a hazy starlight. Just now, she used the Dragon Head Rod to connect her vision and helped neutralize Zhou Junyang's spell.

Moreover, she cleverly did not neutralize the flames, so as not to expose anything.

He pretended to be absent-minded and said, "No! How could I kill him?"

Li Haimeng in the bridal sedan slowed down. She had originally locked onto Zhou Junyang with her divine sense, intending to suppress him with pressure if he made any suspicious moves.

But when she tried to exert pressure just now, she found that she couldn't suppress him. It seemed that he had some kind of protective Law Treasure on him.

"What are you trying to do?" She suddenly became angry, rushed out of the bridal sedan, and struck Zhou Junyang with a palm.

Unexpectedly, a red bell-shaped barrier suddenly appeared around Zhou Junyang, with a fire dragon coiling around it, completely blocking her attack.

She didn't linger and instead pulled Chu Ming away, protecting him behind her.

She took out a Divine Pill and stuffed it into Chu Ming's mouth.

After eating it, Chu Ming felt the burning sensation disappear and the damage to his soul was repaired.

Li Haimeng turned around and said to Zhou Junyang in a cold voice, "Are you looking for death?"

Seeing this sudden change, the few remaining people around also looked over.

After hearing Chu Ming's reply just now, Zhou Junyang secretly felt a little disappointed.

Wasn't it him? Did I guess wrong?

He smiled apologetically, repeatedly bowing, "Sorry! Senior brothers and sisters, I was a little impulsive just now. I used this method because I was anxious to inquire about the whereabouts of my younger brother."

"I overthought it and thought there might be some hidden situation. I apologize, I apologize."

"Consider this bottle of Divine Pill as an apology. I'll take my leave."

Saying that, he turned and left the main hall.

Li Haimeng's eyes were filled with anger at this moment. She wanted to stop him and demand an explanation, but she was held back by Chu Ming behind her.

Chu Ming shook his head and said, "Forget it, Meng'er, I'm fine."

Zhou Junyang's sudden probing was indeed unexpected.

He didn't use any dangerous means, just forcefully questioned him.

With the backing of his powerful support, there shouldn't be any major trouble.

Fortunately, Chu Ming handled it well and didn't reveal his true strength.

After this incident, Zhou Junyang shouldn't suspect him anymore.

It's not a bad thing after all.

Li Haimeng relaxed her clenched fist, let out a heavy sigh, and said, "I didn't expect that the Fire Cloud Perfected Being would pass on the Dragon Fire Barrier to him. No wonder he's so confident."

"This kind of evil technique is most damaging to the soul, and he actually used it on his fellow disciples."

"Unfortunately, my strength is limited, and I no longer have my master's protection. I have no way to stand up for my husband."

"But I will remember this grudge!"

"If there is a chance in the future, I will make him pay a hundredfold!"

"Husband, are you okay now?"

She grabbed Chu Ming's hand and asked worriedly.

Chu Ming didn't mind Zhou Junyang's little actions.

After all, he was Zhou Junyi's older brother, and no matter what, he would have to deal with him in the future. It's just that the timing is not right yet.

But Li Haimeng's protective actions warmed his heart.

He took the initiative to hold Li Haimeng's hand and smiled, "I'm fine, Meng'er. It's just that my soul was slightly attacked, but it's nothing."

Li Haimeng was delighted to see him take the initiative, and a smile appeared on the face hidden under the veil.
