Chapter 256: Chapter 190: An Old Acquaintance’s Shock, Clouds and Rain in an Old Place
By the time they came to their senses, Li Chang’an was already gone.
At this moment, a touch of wistful loss bloomed in everyone’s heart.
But more than that, they felt gratitude.
Luo Kun faced the spot where Li Chang’an had been standing and offered his solemn thanks.
“Thank you for your teachings, Elder Li!”
Everyone else chimed in, their voices loud and clear.
“Thank you for your teachings, Elder Li!”
“Thank you, Elder Li…”
“…”
On this day, a chorus of gratitude echoed through Qinghe Marketplace, lingering for a long, long time.
…
At this moment, Li Chang’an, Zheng Qingqing, and Zheng Yuandao were rushing toward the Zheng Clan Territory.
The Zheng Clan Territory was not far from Qinghe Marketplace. At their speed, it took them less than an hour to arrive.
From a distance, countless buildings stood in dense, orderly rows, built around a large lake.
The three of them did not conceal their auras.
The moment they arrived, Zheng Feihong, who was guarding the clan territory, flew into the air and announced loudly, “Zheng Feihong of the Zheng Family welcomes you, Daoist Li!”
“You’re too kind, Daoist Zheng.”
Li Chang’an’s expression was cold, his tone flat.
His attitude toward Zheng Feihong was completely different; he did not address him as an Elder, but simply as a fellow Daoist.
Below, within the Zheng Clan Territory, countless Zheng Family disciples looked up.
Zheng Lingfeng was among them.
Shocked and in disbelief, he stared intently at the familiar figure.
’Li Chang’an! How can it be Li Chang’an?!’
Feeling that immense Foundation Establishment aura, Zheng Lingfeng was struck dumb, as if by lightning.
He had long since heard the news of Li Chang’an’s Foundation Establishment, but he had always insisted that it was just someone with the same name, not the Li Chang’an he knew.
But today, Li Chang’an, radiating Foundation Establishment Power, loomed over the Zheng Clan Territory, completely shattering the pathetic fantasy in Zheng Lingfeng’s heart.
His eyes filled with bloodshot veins, and his face gradually began to twist.
’No! No! Why him? Why couldn’t it be me? Why did my Foundation Establishment fail?’
’The heavens are unfair!’
Zheng Lingfeng’s voice was hoarse as he muttered under his breath.
He tore at his hair, praying this was all a nightmare from which he would soon wake.
During all those years in Qinghe, he had always looked down on Li Chang’an. He was a Celestial Pride from a Foundation Establishment Family, while Li Chang’an was just a talentless Loose Cultivator.
But now, their roles were reversed.
Li Chang’an didn’t need the background of a Noble Family.
If he so wished, he could establish a new Foundation Establishment Family at any time!
Above the clan territory, Zheng Feihong’s expression was grave; he could feel Li Chang’an’s killing intent.
“Daoist Li, for what purpose have you come here today?”
“To kill Zheng Lingfeng!”
Li Chang’an was blunt, not bothering to hide his intentions in the slightest.
The moment the words left his mouth, the atmosphere instantly grew tense.
In the Zheng Clan Territory below, the many disciples of the Zheng Family were both shocked and terrified.
They had seen Li Chang’an arrive with two of their own ancestors and had assumed he was a guest. They never would have imagined he was here to kill someone!
“Lingfeng, why did you provoke this Foundation Establishment Powerhouse?”
The many Elders and seniors of Zheng Lingfeng’s branch of the family all began to speak at once.
Their voices were anxious as they questioned him one after another.
“Things haven’t reached the worst-case scenario yet. Quickly, explain the whole story.”
“As long as we pay a certain price, we should be able to save your life!”
One urgent voice after another rang in Zheng Lingfeng’s ears.
But he turned a deaf ear, not responding to a single one.
At this moment, the immense pressure of death, combined with the shock and resentment in his heart, was like a nightmare, frantically devouring his very being.
The next instant, he suddenly let out a hysterical roar, “Li Chang’an, this is the Zheng Clan Territory! I am protected by my ancestor and the arrays! You can’t kill me!”
Hearing this crazed voice, countless members of the Zheng Family paled.
’How could a mere Qi Refining Junior Cultivator provoke a Foundation Establishment Great Cultivator like that?’
The atmosphere across the entire clan territory grew even more tense, as if a violent storm was about to break.
Above the clan territory, Li Chang’an remained indifferent.
He glanced at Zheng Feihong before him, his tone neutral.
“Daoist Zheng, are you going to stop me?”
“Daoist Li…”
Zheng Feihong took a deep breath.
Suddenly, he shot backward and waved a hand.
Immediately after, Magical Power surged around the clan territory, and a fiery red curtain of light suddenly rose, like an inverted giant bowl, enclosing the entire Zheng Clan Territory for protection.
Zheng Feihong shouted coldly, “Li Chang’an, Lingfeng is right! If I let you kill a Zheng Family disciple in our own clan territory, where would the Zheng Family’s honor be?”
“Honor?”
Li Chang’an couldn’t help but laugh.
’This guy secretly harmed several Zheng Family disciples, yet he still has the nerve to talk about honor.’
“Zheng Feihong, do you really think a few Tier Two Arrays can stop me?”
“Whether they can or not, you’re welcome to try!”
Zheng Feihong’s stance was firm, unwilling to yield in the slightest.
Below, Zheng Lingfeng’s eyes were bloodshot as he clenched his fists tightly.
’Tier Two Arrays… If Li Chang’an tries to force his way in, he’ll definitely die!’
His face was twisted and his voice hoarse; in his mind, he had already torn Li Chang’an to shreds countless times.
However, things did not go as he wished.
Li Chang’an, wielding the Pupil of Truth, saw through the details of these arrays with a single glance.
’Two Tier Two Middle Grade Arrays and one Tier Two Low Grade Array.’
’Arrays within arrays, interlinked and layered.’
’An ordinary Foundation Establishment Cultivator would likely have no way to deal with this and could only retreat in defeat.’
’The clan territory of a Foundation Establishment Family, developed over many years, was not so easily assaulted.’
’But I am no ordinary cultivator.’
His figure flashed, and he entered the array. The Forbidden Spirit Chessboard materialized in his hand.
“Forbid!”
A black stone suddenly fell.
With a soft CLACK, the entire Zheng Clan Territory seemed to freeze for an instant.
The three Tier Two Grand Arrays enveloping the clan territory all malfunctioned in unison.
“Not good!”
