Chapter 965 The Worldly First
If this person hadn't shown up, it would have been fine. But since he did, Hou Yuanzhi naturally had to vent his anger.
For a time, everyone took their grievances and sought their revenge.
The battle aura emanating from the entire mountain peak caused other martial artists in Qingzhou City to tremble.
They had already experienced this kind of situation the last time.
Everyone even worried that these people would destroy Qingzhou City, but fortunately, this did not happen.
However, the aura today seemed even more intense than before!
Hong San and the others, who knew the inside story, wanted to go and help, but upon remembering the message Chen Yang had given him earlier... the people who came were all at the peak of the Grandmaster realm.
Hong San naturally would not choose to cause trouble for Chen Yang at this time.
The Four Great War Gods were also anxiously awaiting news from Chen Yang.
When the battle began, all four of them received information from their informants.
"The Zhou family has mobilized all their peak Grandmasters?"
Bei Xuan, who was recovering in the sect, wanted to go out immediately upon hearing this news, but he was stopped by the abbot of the Zen Buddhist Temple Sect.
"With your current strength, what help could you provide even if you went?"
"Your weapon was destroyed, and you haven't even fully succeeded in body tempering. Going there would only cause more trouble!"
"Do not go out until you reach true peak!"
When Bei Xuan returned last time, he had only intended to find some materials to forge himself a new weapon.
But Bei Xuan never expected that upon his return, he would be directly locked up.
The abbot personally oversaw his confinement!
Even if Bei Xuan wanted to sneak out, it was absolutely impossible.
Fortunately, he could still get news from the outside world on a daily basis.
Bei Xuan initially suspected that Saint Moon Divine Venerable was behind the appearance of many mysterious martial artists outside.
But it wasn't until... a few inexplicable peak Grandmasters appeared within the Zen Buddhist Temple Sect that Bei Xuan finally learned some inside information from the abbot.
Ancient martial artists!
The Zen Buddhist Temple Sect itself also had ancient martial artists!
And the cultivation technique Bei Xuan was currently practicing was taught to him by an ancient martial artist of the Zen Buddhist Temple Sect.
"Abbot! I seldom participate in worldly affairs. Apart from the others who are also War Gods, only Chen Yang is someone I deeply admire, and who has saved my life several times."
"You know all of this. If he dies, I will definitely avenge him and bloodbath the Zhou family!"
Bei Xuan's voice was very calm, but the killing intent in his tone was undeniably exposed.
The abbot of the Zen Buddhist Temple Sect immediately frowned upon hearing this.
To speak such words in a Buddhist sanctuary.
This Bei Xuan...
"Alas! I don't know if it was a good thing to let you go down the mountain for training."
"Do you know why the Zhou family has become the number one family in the secular world?"
"Is it simply because they have more martial artists and more peak Grandmasters?"
"Which great sect is not more powerful than them? If we were to truly count, there are several sects in Buddhism that do not fear the Zhou family."
"However, no one has ever targeted the Zhou family. Haven't you ever wondered why?"
Bei Xuan, who was in the room, was stunned.
The abbot's words implied...
Immediately after, Bei Xuan heard the abbot continue, "The Zhou family has a good relationship with the Profound Sky Cave Mansion. You all know this. It's because the Zhou family has had contact with the Profound Sky Cave Mansion for a very long time, but the relationship has never developed further."
"If a noble family can maintain a good relationship with a great sect, it is a very meaningful thing for both parties."
"But why didn't the Zhou family do so?"
"It's because their ambition is enormous! They, the Zhou family, a mere secular family, want to control the martial world and, in turn, suppress the sects!"
This was the first time Bei Xuan had heard such a theory.
The Zhou family, a secular family, how could they possibly achieve this?
"Impossible! The gap between a secular family and a sect is not a little bit. The cultivation techniques and so on would already be an insurmountable wall."
"Even if the Zhou family has continued for thousands of years, how many peak Grandmasters could they have? Enough to support a battle against the entire sect?"
Bei Xuan clearly could not believe this.
The abbot naturally understood Bei Xuan's thoughts and said with a chuckle, "Everyone's thoughts are actually the same as yours."
"They're just a noble family, why bother?"
"However, times have changed. Cultivation methods are from the inside out."
"But anything is possible in this era. You have experienced so much in the mortal world and have come into contact with many external matters. Do you remember the Zhou family's potions from before?"
"Potions?" Bei Xuan's heart trembled inexplicably when he heard these two words.
He had never told the abbot about this before, so how did the abbot know?
The previous friction between Chen Yang and the Zhou family was precisely because of the Zhou family's team using potions.
But potions merely enhance the physical fitness of ordinary people, allowing them to perform better on the field.
Those were things targeted at ordinary people.
Martial artists had already researched such techniques a long time ago.
It was nothing more than detonating their own vital blood to forcefully increase their power.
Even if potions could be taken by martial artists, the Zhou family's reliance on this to change everything would still be wishful thinking.
"Yes, don't underestimate that small potion. The energy contained within it is far beyond your imagination."
"An ordinary person can unleash blood qi power after taking it, but what about martial artists if they have corresponding potions?"
"It won't just be blood qi power that erupts. As far as I know, the Zhou family has been researching this for decades!"
"Moreover, the Zhou family is very cautious and has not placed this matter within the Zhou family's sphere of influence."
"Instead, through certain channels, they have set up research facilities in desolate areas overseas."
Outside the villa at this moment, facing three powerful peak Grandmasters who had appeared unexpectedly, the Zhou family was actually being suppressed.
Seeing the Zhou family retreating steadily, the Zhou family head's expression turned cold.
"I truly didn't expect that a small villa would hide so many peak Grandmasters. I must admit, I underestimated you."
"If I had known this earlier, I should have exterminated you in Modu!"
"This way, we wouldn't have lost so many men."
As the Zhou family head spoke, he suddenly used his powerful internal energy to forcefully push Wei Zhenru away. A syringe suddenly appeared in his hand.
"Why don't I let you witness today why the Zhou family is the number one family in the secular world! The true power of the Zhou family!"
Seeing the head's actions, many martial artists of the Zhou family took out similar syringes.
This caused the Zhou family's consecrated guests to be puzzled, as they did not possess these items!
