The Cangling Zhang family dominates the continent!

Green mountains stretch out in a continuous stream, shrouded in mist. A clear stream rushes down, splashing and playing a cheerful melody. Birds sing in the woods, and insects chirp in the grass.

The breeze blows, the leaves rustle, the flowers sway gently, and emit a charming fragrance that makes people intoxicated.

Sunlight streamed into the courtyard, revealing a young man in a blue robe, his figure slender and sturdy. He held a longsword, his gaze firm and focused. His sword moved with him, his robes fluttering, and the wind from his sword whistled.

Every swing of the sword was full of power. Sweat slid down his cheeks, but it did not affect his rhythm at all. It seemed as if he had become one with the sword, showing the youthful heroism.

"Alas~ I've been stuck at the peak of the late Condensation period for two months and still can't break through."

"Currently, the family is developing steadily, and caravans are also leaving for other cities. I believe it will bring good profits to the family. After all, the hybrid spiritual rice and other items I developed are quite good."

Zhang Chentian wiped the sweat from his face and murmured in his heart.

"The little tower should have absorbed all those Earth-level weapons in the past few days. Once Su wakes up, we can go out."

Two months ago, after the feast ended, Zhang Chentian recalled the many earth-level weapons that Senior Yan Zhan had given him, so he went to discuss with Zhang Zongyu and the elders, wanting to take some of them for the small tower to absorb.

I thought I needed to tell a white lie, but unexpectedly I just made my intention clear.

Zhang Zongyu and several elders readily agreed, without even asking what he would use them for. They simply said, "These originally belonged to you. Since they are of great use, you can take them all. Our clan currently has no need for such high-level spiritual tools, and we dare not use them."

Seeing this scene, Zhang Chentian was moved, but he did not take them all away. Instead, he kept ten and let the small tower absorb the rest.

"Young Master, the clan leader asked you to come over, saying that a distinguished guest is coming," Qingdie said respectfully.

"Auntie Die, I've told you so many times, there's no need to perform these empty formalities in front of me."

"Qingdie dare not. I am the young lady's maid, just a servant. I am not worthy of the young master's mercy."

"There is no such thing as inferior or inferior to me. You grew up under my watch. Don't you know what kind of personality I have?" Zhang Chentian said helplessly.

"That's not OK."

"Alright alright."

"I'll take my leave," Qingdie said.

"Distinguished guest? Who is it? Forget it, I don't want to think about it. I'll just go over and take a look and I'll know who it is," Zhang Chentian shook his head and flew towards the family's reception hall on his sword.

"Chief Zhang, as long as you give the Li family 300,000 spirit stones, I can introduce you to the forces behind us. This is a great gift to you. You must consider it carefully."

After saying this, Li Bu'ren, the third elder of the Li family, drank the spiritual tea in his hand calmly.

"Don't think about it."

Upon hearing this, Li Bu Ren's eyes lit up instantly, and he thought to himself, "Just as I expected, I'm really quite clever!"

Just when Li Buren was about to say something, he heard Zhang Zongyu continue: "You can leave now. You are not welcome in my Zhang family."

"Huh? Patriarch Zhang, do you know what you are talking about? Even if you don't know how powerful the forces behind my Li family are, my Tianbao City Li family alone is not something that your Zhang family, a newly promoted fourth-grade family, can provoke. How dare you speak to me like this." Li Bu Ren said angrily.

After saying this, he released the pressure of the late Condensation period on his body with all his strength. The other five people of the Li family also took out their weapons. For a moment, the hall was tense.

"Hmph, you dare to be so presumptuous on my Zhang family's territory, are you looking for death?" Zhang Zongyu snorted coldly and activated the third-grade superior killing formation in the reception hall. Originally, Zhang Zongyu did not want to tear his face with the Li family this time, but he did not expect Li Bu Ren to be so arrogant.

In an instant, everyone in the Li family sensed the strong murderous intent in the hall.

Li Bu Ren, who had reacted quickly, said, "I apologize for my previous offense. I hope Patriarch Zhang will not blame me."

"Fuck you, where's that arrogance you had just now? It's too late to be humble now," Zhang Zongxuan cursed after hearing Li Bu'ren's words.

"you!"

"What are you talking about? You're being so arrogant in my Zhang family. I'm telling you, you've come to the wrong place."

"Chief, Chen Tian requests an audience."

"Come in." Upon hearing Zhang Chen's arrival, everyone in the hall put away their weapons.

"Greetings to the clan leader and the elders," after completing the ceremony, Zhang Chentian walked to the side of Zhang Zongyu and stood there without paying any attention to the Li family members. He had heard everything Li Buren said clearly, and what's more, he had almost died at the hands of Li Rufeng back then, so naturally he would not give them a good look.

"Tian'er, why are you so rude? Why don't you say hello to the distinguished guests from the Li family?" Zhang Zongyu pretended to be angry.

"It's my grandson's fault."

"Zhang Chentian meets everyone from the Li family." Zhang Chentian said lightly.

Although Li Bu Ren was very angry at Zhang Chentian's indifferent attitude, he had to say, "Young Patriarch Zhang, you are too polite."

After Zhang Chentian finished speaking, he stopped talking and quietly watched the performance of the clan leader and several elders.

"Elder Li, my Zhang family hasn't even come to settle accounts with your Li family yet, yet your Li family has come to my Zhang family and openly demanded spirit stones, asking us to join you, even claiming it's for our own good."

"My Zhang family belongs to the dynasty, not to any particular party. You must understand this." Zhang Zongyu said in a deep voice.

"Are you looking for my Li family to settle the score? My Li family knows that we have never offended your Zhang family. How can there be a settlement of score?" Li Bu Ren asked, somewhat confused.

"Hmph, your Li family is truly forgetful. During that trip to the secret realm a few years ago, Li Rufeng was reluctant to share the Dragon Essence Fruit and wanted to kill everyone present. I believe you must know about this."

"Feng'er did mention this, but in the end they all ran away. It's all the fault of that hateful masked man," Li Buren said angrily when he heard Zhang Zongyu's words.

"Do you know that among the people he wants to kill is a genius from my Zhang family? If it wasn't the masked man you mentioned, he would have died at the hands of Li Rufeng." In an instant, the atmosphere in the hall became tense again.

"Ah? What do you want to do? I advise you not to act rashly. I have a trump card given to me by my ancestor. If we really fight, you won't gain any advantage." Li Bu Ren said in panic.

"Hmph, get out of here right now. I'll spare your lives this time." After hearing what Li Buren said, Zhang Zongyu realized that he couldn't kill them this time. Otherwise, the loss would be too great and it wouldn't be worth it.

"Hmph, let's go," Li Buren walked out the door quickly.

"Grandpa, why don't you leave them here? There shouldn't be any big problems with the ancestor here," Zhang Chentian couldn't help but ask after Li Bu Ren walked away.

"If the ancestor were here, there would be no problem, but the problem is that the ancestor is not here."

"Ah? The ancestor is not here? Is he out?"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Zongyu activated the soundproofing formation. At this time, only Zhang Zongyu, Zhang Chentian, and several elders were in the hall.

"Tian'er, you know that lake in the north, right?"

"I know. Aren't there a lot of spiritual fields around that lake?"

"Actually, there's a small world at the bottom of the lake called Dark Abyss. The cultivation system there is the same as ours."
