Chapter 265 - 265: The Attack of a Late-stage Zifu Disciple
“The evil cultivators of the Ghost Fiend Sect tried to destroy my Chen City. Fortunately, the heavens favored them and they were successfully destroyed by the Chen family.”
In Chen City, even though a month had passed since the invasion of the evil cultivators, the news of the destruction of the evil cultivators still occupied the front page of the Chen newspaper.
“Paper boy, give me a newspaper.”
A man dressed in white, who looked like a young master from an aristocratic family, bought a newspaper with a smile. Then, he walked to the tea stall and read it with relish.
When the waiter saw this, he smiled and asked,”Sir, you should be from outside
Chen City.”
When the noble young master heard this, he placed the report in his hand on the table and smiled at the waiter.” Oh, how did you know? Don’t tell me you remember everyone in Chen City?”
“This lowly one doesn’t have the ability.” The waiter scratched the back of his head with a silly smile, then smiled and said,”I had this guess because 1 saw that you were looking at Chen Bao with such relish.”
“The people of Chen City have known about this news for a long time, so they naturally wouldn’t be so focused on it.”
“And the reason why Chen Bao placed the news of the invasion of the Sorcerers on the front page was to prepare for outsiders like you.”
When the noble young master heard this, he patted the waiter’s shoulder with a smile.” Not bad, as expected of Chen Cheng. Even the waiter has such observation skills.””
“However, 1 have some doubts. I hope that the waiter can help me explain.”
“Oh, please speak, sir.” The waiter smiled.
“It’s like this.” The noble young master expressed his doubts.” The Chen Family is only at Rank-8. Even if the Chen Family Head is talented and can be said to be the number one monster in Da Qian. However, he had only trained for a short period of time, so it was impossible for him to be a match for a Zifu Disciple.”
“I heard that among the evil cultivators who came to invade this time, there was an evil cultivator at the level of a Zifu Disciple. How did the Chen clan defeat this evil cultivator at the level of a Zifu Disciple?”
“So you have doubts about this.”The waiter poured a cup of tea for the noble young master and immediately smiled.”Sir Chen Yang is not only talented, but his luck is also the best in Great Gan.”
“Luck?”
The noble young master frowned.” What does this good luck have to do with defeating the Zifu Disciples?”
“Of course there is.” “Ten years ago, Lord Chen Yang found a recently dead Underworld Dragon in the Endless Mountains.”
“Sir, you should know that Lord Chen Yang has an underworld dragon among his subdued beasts, right?”
The noble young master nodded, and a gleam of light flashed in his eyes as he quietly listened to the waiter.
The waiter did not seem to notice the strange look in the noble young master’s eyes. He continued to speak confidently,” That dead underworld dragon was a demon king level existence.”
“Lord Chen Yang extracted the blood essence of the demon king and dug out its demon core to feed his subdued beast.”
“It was precisely because of this that Lord Chen Yang’s Hellwyrm successfully broke through to become a Daemon King, allowing it to resist the Zifu Disciple.”
Hearing the waiter’s words, the noble young master didn’t quite believe it.” That’s impossible, right? Let’s not talk about swallowing the demon core. Will it cause any losses to the subdued beast?”
“Let’s say that after successfully refining the demon core, the subdued beast can completely absorb the spiritual energy in the demon core and advance to the demon king realm?”
“If it’s really that simple, wouldn’t those major forces be able to nurture many Daemon King familiars?”
It was no wonder that the noble young master had such doubts. Logically speaking, even if he swallowed the demon core of a demon king of the same type, it would be very difficult for a Demon Venerable to break through to the demon king realm.
Generally speaking, it was already very good to be able to let a Demon Venerable advance from the early stage to the late stage and let the late stage advance to the peak.
Only demonic beasts at the peak of the Demon Venerable realm could break through to the Demon King realm under the infusion of the massive amount of spiritual energy in the demon core.
But among them, the danger was extremely high. Generally speaking, it was already good luck to be able to kill one out of ten.
“That’s why I said that Lord Chen Yang is lucky.’The waiter echoed.
“As you said, there are so many restrictions and difficulties, but Lord Chen Yang was able to succeed. Doesn’t that prove that he is the number one person in Da Qian?”
The noble young master’s words paused. It seemed like that was the case.
“Of course. Regardless of whether it was because they swallowed a demon core or because of something else, the Chen clan had a demon king-level subdued beast, which was why they were able to defeat the Zifu Disciple.”the waiter said.
After hearing the waiter’s words, the noble young master was silent for a moment, then smiled and said,”How did you know about such a secret?”
“Secret?” The waiter looked at the noble young master in puzzlement.” I’m not the only one who knows about this.”
“Practically all of the people of Chen City saw Lord Chen Yang riding on the Hellwyrm Dragon to pursue the Zifu Disciple.”
“As for how the Underworld Dragon broke through to the Demon King realm, it’s news released by the Chen family. As for whether it’s true or not, we don’t know.”
“But there is one thing we can be certain of, and that is that the Chen Clan already has the power of a Zifu Disciple.”
Hearing this, the noble young master nodded.
That’s right. It didn’t matter how he obtained a Daemon King-level subdued beast, as long as he knew that the Chen family had Zifu Disciple combat strength.
It seemed that this trip was not in vain. Next, he should investigate if the Chen family had any other hidden combat strength other than this demon king.
Immediately, the noble young master paid the bill and fanned himself as he strolled around Chen City.
Seeing the noble young master leave the teacup, the person who was sweeping the floor beside the teacup slowly walked to the side of a person who was tidying up the trash.
“Tell the commander that the fish has bitten the hook.”
Then, the sweeper left and continued to sweep the streets. However, this route coincided with the route that the noble young master took.
Chen Clan, in the meeting hall.
After listening to Chen Ying’s report, Yang Chen waved his hand, signaling for Chen Ying to leave.
After Chen Ying left, Zhou Tianli couldn’t help but say,””Yang ‘er, what do you have to do to make that spy believe that the Chen Clan only has one Daemon King?”
“What do we do?” Yang Chen’s lips curled into a smile.” I don’t need to do it. Just let him investigate normally.””
“In any case, our Chen Clan truly only has the power of a Zifu Disciple. Why should we be afraid of him investigating?”
Hearing Yang Chen’s words, Zhou Tianli suddenly realized that he was overthinking things.
In the Chen Family, only the Great Elder knew about Chen Yang’s background.
Outside, only he and Wang Ming knew about Yang Chen’s background.
As long as they didn’t say anything, no one would know that Yang Chen had a stage level puppet in his hands.
As for the rest, he would let the Ghost Sect’s scouts investigate. However, they could only find the Hell Dragon.
If they were bold enough to come to the Chen family to investigate personally, they would only be able to find out about the Sirius Star Array.
Yang Chen had planned to release this information to confuse the enemy. Since that was the case, why would he be afraid of being investigated?
“Disciple, this time, although we can fool the Malevolent Ghost Sect and make them continue to send out Zifu Disciple level experts, we can still send them out.”
“But what about next time?”
“I reckon that this time, the Ghost Fiend Sect will send out a late-stage Zifu Disciple. If we still kill him, then the next person who will come will probably be the sect master of the Ghost Fiend Sect.”Zhou Tianli said worriedly.
“Don’t worry, I won’t.” Chen Yang smiled and shook his head,” The most important thing for the Ghost Fiend Sect now is to hand over the people they plundered to the sect behind them.”
“Otherwise, the Malevolent Ghost Sect wouldn’t have sent the Zifu Disciples over and directly mobilized the entire sect.”
“As for the next time we kill the enemy, it will definitely make the Ghost Fiend Sect more cautious towards us.”
“However, 1 can guarantee that the most the Ghost Fiend Sect can do is to send out spies to investigate the Chen Clan’s background in preparation for future revenge.”
“As for revenge, no matter what, it should be after the transaction is completed and not immediately.”
Hearing Chen Yang’s words, the Deshun Commandery Prince nodded slowly.”
In that case, we’ll do as you say.””
Zhou Tianli had also thought it through. With such a disciple around, there was no need for him to waste his brain thinking. He could just say who he wanted to hit.
Time passed by bit by bit. In the blink of an eye, another half a month had passed.
And the noble young master who had been scouting for information in Chen City half a month ago had also arrived at the manor of the Yingzhou ancestor.
In a certain hall, Sect Master Xu did not hide the killing intent on his face. He stared straight at the noble young master in front of him,” Speak, what information did you find on this trip?””
“Sect Master, after my investigation, the Chen family has a total of the Hell Dragon and the Sirius Star Array.”
“What did you say?” Zhou Muchun frowned and immediately asked,””Are you sure it’s the Sirius Star Array?”
“That’s right.”
Your noble son nodded, because this Sirius array is too famous, we will firmly remember it.”
“When I was near the Chen family, 1 sensed the aura of the Sirius Star Array.”
After hearing the noble young master’s words, Sect Master Xu looked at Zhou
Muchun.” Old Ancestor, the situation is clear now.”
” I don’t know where the Chen family got their hands on the Celestial Wolf Formation and Daemon King subdued beasts, but that’s how they managed to kill the Fifteenth Elder.”
“Sir, let me go and kill Yang Chen.”
Zhou Muchun looked at Sect Master Xu.” What a rash person. What a disgrace.

“The Chen family is just a minor illness, so there’s no need to take it too seriously. The most important thing now is to guard the food. If anything happens, your entire Ghost Fiend Sect will be buried with you.”
“As for the Chen Clan, they can send a late-stage Zifu Disciple.”
Hearing Zhou Muchun’s words, Sect Master Xu nodded.” Alright, I’ll go back and send the Third Elder over. The Third Elder is an expert at the seventh level of the Purple Prefecture Realm. It shouldn’t be a problem for him to take care of the Chen Clan.”
“By the way, Milord, do you know when the higher-ups will send people to receive the food? Guarding the rations requires a large number of our Ghost Fiend Sect’s men, and it really affects our development.”
“Why are you in such a hurry? How can transporting so many people be solved in a short period of time? The higher-ups naturally have their considerations. You just have to focus on waiting.”
“As for your losses, don’t worry. The higher-ups will definitely give you a satisfactory reward.”Zhou Muchun said.
Hearing Zhou Muchun’s words, Sect Master Xu took a deep breath and slowly said,””I understand. If there’s nothing else, 1’11 take my leave.”
“Go ahead.”
After leaving the main hall, Sect Master Xu went straight to the Ghost Fiend Sect’s lair and called the Third Elder over.” Third Elder, I have a mission for you. Go and destroy the Chen Family.”
A cruel smile appeared on Third Elder’s face.” Do you need me to destroy Chen Cheng as well?”
“There’s no need. The Li family’s investigators haven’t left yet. Isn’t massacring the city a slap to the Li family’s face?”
“I understand..”
