Most of the cultivators who had rushed to the banquet had very honorable identities or possessed powerful cultivations, and they were quite puzzled as to how Ji Yutang, with his status, would personally strike an old man.
This matter was bizarre and perverse.
Of course, there were some people that could see the clues.
That old man with half white hair and half black hair, although, there were no holy qi fluctuations or spiritual power fluctuations in his body, he was no different from an ordinary person.
However, his body’s blood qi was exuberant and filled with full vitality, not like a dying old man at all.
Most likely, Chi Yutang was able to see this, and that was why, he personally made a test run.
Besides, even if the old man with half white hair and half black hair was really just an ordinary person, then what was the difference between Chi Yutang killing him and pinching an ant to death?
It wasn’t a big deal at all.
However, right at this moment, a silhouette, flashed out from the position between Chi Yutang and Chu Siyuan.
That silhouette struck out like lightning, his fingertips pointing forward, striking out a bowl-thick purple electric light that spread out forward.
“Boom!”
Chi Yutang retreated backward seventeen steps in a row, and on his arm, yet there was still a fine electric pattern flowing, emitting a giggling sound.
The young man standing between Chi Yutang and Chu Siyuan, wearing a golden mask, was none other than Zhang Ruochen.
Zhang Ruochen converged his spiritual energy back, the electricity at his fingertips disappeared afterward, and sneered, ”The royal family’s son is so brutal and petulant, killing innocents indiscriminately, is this the world in full bloom under the rule of the Empress? Today, I am considered to have grown in insight.”
The surrounding banquet goers, all of them looked at each other in disbelief, feeling unbelievable.
“This young man, it’s incredible that he could block Chi Yutang, one of the four princes of the Lingxiao Heavenly King’s Mansion, even if Chi Yutang didn’t use his full strength.”
“This person is using spiritual power that can manipulate thunder and lightning, and the power of that strike just now is at least comparable to the full power strike of a Forty-seventh Order Spiritual Power Half-Saint. It’s not certain that it didn’t use its full power at all.”
Even though Zhang Ruochen was wearing an Illusory Gold Mask, the crowd was still able to tell that he was, well, not very old.
On top of the Golden Winged Eagle King’s carriage, Wan Huayu’s eyes, staring towards Zhang Ruochen, her small crystalline mouth slightly hooked, revealing a smirk.
“To be so young and have such a powerful spiritual power, this son is by no means a nobody, Chi Yutang will probably cause quite a bit of trouble.”
Wan Huayu didn’t step in to stop the fight between Chi Yutang and Zhang Ruochen, happy to watch the fun, and at the same time, there was some curiosity as to what was the origin of that man with the golden mask?
On Chi Yutang’s face, a cold look appeared as he said, “Today, the Sacred Lord of the Cai Family will announce the whereabouts of the Secret Scrolls of the Blood Race, and the strongest members of the Undying Blood Race will surely infiltrate the Cai Mansion to spy on the news.”
“This Worldly Prince has long since seen that there is something wrong with the two of you, which is why he went out to test the waters. Sure enough, you really aren’t ordinary people, so why don’t you immediately remove your disguises and reveal your true colors?”
The cultivators present at the scene immediately let out a large clamor and stared at Zhang Ruochen and Chu Siyuan with more than a little hostility.
The Human Race and the Immortal Blood Race were at absolute opposites, either you die or I die.
If, Zhang Ruochen and Chu Siyuan’s identities as Immortal Blood Race were to be realized, the two of them, today, would definitely be killed by a thousand cuts.
“The Sacred Lord of the Cai Clan will be announcing the whereabouts of the Blood Race Secret Scroll?”
Zhang Ruochen’s gaze, stared towards Chu Siyuan, wanting to inquire what was going on?
However, Chu Siyuan’s gaze, which was also fixed on Zhang Ruochen’s body, was quite angry as he transmitted, “Zhang Ruochen, didn’t you claim to keep a low profile? Why did you show your cultivation, yet you prevented Lao Fu from revealing his identity?”
When Chu Siyuan thought about how he had just splashed and rolled around, his old face turned red, and he only felt that he had lost all of his hundreds of years of face.
Only at this moment did he realize that he seemed to have been pitied by Zhang Ruochen once.
This brat, he was definitely taking revenge, and he might be referring to how he was laughing at him just now while standing at the back.
Zhang Ruochen didn’t dare to show a smile as he solemnly said, “Senior Chu is the head of a clan, a highly respected and famous person, naturally, he needs to keep a low profile. I, however, am different, it was the time when I was young and vigorous, when I saw someone disrespecting senior, I couldn’t restrain myself for a moment, so I did something impulsive.”
Zhang Ruochen did not want Chu Siyuan to continue to hold onto this matter and immediately asked, “What exactly is the matter with the Blood Clan Secret Scroll?”
Eight hundred years ago, one of the ancestors of the Cai Family, who was a Pavilion Master of the Sacred Brightness Central Empire, was indeed involved in compiling the Secret Scrolls of the Blood Race.
However, why was it the Cai Family that announced the whereabouts of the Secret Scrolls of the Blood Race, but not the Shangguan Family?
One had to know that Imperial Master Shangguan Que was the one who presided over the compilation of the Secret Scrolls of the Blood Race, the most important figure.
When the Sacred Scripture Talented Maiden went to visit Shangguan Que, she didn’t even meet Shangguan Que in person, nor did she ask about the exact whereabouts of the Blood Clan Secret Scrolls, and merely obtained a note.
Even, because of this matter, she had almost lost her life.
Chu Siyuan transmitted his voice, “What’s so strange about that? Back then, when the Sacred Brightness Central Empire was still in existence, the ancestor of the Cai Family, who was once ranked as the Minister of the Phoenix Cloud Pavilion, personally participated in compiling the Blood Clan Secret Scroll. Isn’t it a normal thing for the descendants of the Cai Family to know about the Blood Clan Secret Scrolls?”
Obviously, Chu Siyuan had known about this matter for a long time.
Zhang Ruochen’s eyes sank as he said, “As far as I know, the person who presided over the compilation of the Blood Clan Secret Scrolls was Imperial Master Shangguan Que. Why wasn’t it published by him?”
“Sage King Que hasn’t shown up for many years, and it’s an unknown whether he’s still alive or not.”
Chu Siyuan’s eyes were a little strange, then, he added, “Last time, when that heavenly daughter of the Nalan Family went to visit the Shangguan Family, didn’t she almost meet an untimely end? Old me has some suspicions that the Immortal Blood Clan has already infiltrated the Shangguan Family, and it’s very likely that the Que Saint King has already fallen many years ago.”
Zhang Ruochen and Chu Siyuan used the means of voice transmission and exchanged words for a long time, paying no attention to Ji Yutang at all.
“No one has ever dared to ignore this Worldly Prince, the two of you, are truly too arrogant.”Chi Yutang said in a deep voice.
Zhang Ruochen glanced toward Chi Yutang and said, “No one has ever ignored you, it’s just that …… we think you’re too stupid.”
Chi Yutang’s eyes narrowed as he cupped his hands into a claw shape, and two powerful masses of holy qi erupted from his palms as he said, “Just now, the power used by this son of the world was no more than ten percent. Now, this Worldly Son is using ten percent of his power, so I’d like to see if you still dare to speak out of turn.”
Zhang Ruochen remained calm and said, “Don’t be unconvinced, saying that you are stupid is already lifting you up. What kind of pig brain did you grow to suspect that we are the Immortal Blood Race?”
“The Cai Clan had already spread the news several days ago that it would be announcing the whereabouts of the Blood Clan’s Secret Scroll today. If you are an Immortal Blood Race, would you be foolish enough to sneak into the Cai Family until today?”
“The Cai Family is a medieval family with a large family, just the slaves, maids, and guards are also a huge number. I’m an Immortal Blood Clan, so if I directly capture a guard, drain his blood, and change into his likeness, wouldn’t I be able to easily enter the Cai Family?”
Zhang Ruochen split his head and counted down Chi Yutang, causing all the people present to look dumbfounded.
What kind of character was Chi Yutang, one of the four dukes of the Lingxiao Heavenly King’s Mansion, the elder brother of Chi Banzai, how dare someone say that he was incredibly stupid and call him a pig’s brain?
Chu Siyuan was a very cultured Confucian and Taoist celebrity, although, he felt that Zhang Ruochen had gone too far in his words, his heart was very comfortable.
Chi Yutang was so furious that his face was a shade of red and a shade of white, a blood filament emerged from his eyes, and the murderous aura on his body, became even more intense.
Anyone could tell that Chi Yutang was already on the verge of going berserk, and at any moment, he would destroy that old man and young man with his harsh methods.
“What? Want to kill someone?”
Zhang Ruochen’s gaze, glancing in the direction of Cai Mingliang, was somewhat indignant as he said, “The Cai Family is at least a medieval family, with great emperors having been born in their ancestry, how can they be so unbearable now? On such a joyous day, someone wants to kill someone in front of your house, and you don’t dare to take care of it?”
A look of shame and anger appeared on Cai Mingliang’s face.
Of course, Cai Mingliang really didn’t dare to offend Chi Yutang, after all, Chi Yutang represented the Lingxiao Heavenly King’s Mansion and the imperial family.
On top of the frame of a certain Sacred Sect’s carriage, a young man, said, ”The two of them are deliberately coming to pick a fight, aren’t they? Blocking directly outside the Cai Mansion’s front door, if they continue to do so, there’s no need for the Cai Family’s banquet to be held tonight!”
“Offending both Chi Yutang and the Cai Family at the same time, what exactly is the origin of these two?”
Weakly, if Zhang Ruochen hadn’t revealed his identity as a Spiritual Power Half-Saint, I’m afraid that those present at the banquet would really think that they were just here to cheat the food and drink.
Now it was different.
One had to know that no matter where one went, a Spiritual Force Half-Saint was a top tier figure, and even the Medieval Family would pull in with generous treatment.
How could it be someone who cheated on food and drink?
Right at this moment, inside the Cai Clan’s residence, a silhouette with a huge breath flew over in a hurry, landing in front of the gate and glaring at Cai Mingliang, saying, “Cai Mingliang, what’s going on, why are you stopping all the guests outside?”
This person, named Cai Jin, was a high-ranking member of the Cai Family, with a cultivation level of Ninth Order Half-Saint, managing all things big and small in the Cai Family’s Sacred Mansion.
When Cai Mingliang saw Cai Jin, he let out a slight sigh of relief and said, “Grand Master, there are two guys who cheated on their food and drinks, and they got into an argument with Chi Shi Zi.”
When Cai Jin saw Chi Yutang, he revealed a pleasant smile and arched his hand, saying, “It’s truly magnificent that World Prince Chi is able to visit the Cai Clan’s Sacred Mansion.”
Chi Yutang glared in the direction of Zhang Ruochen and Chu Siyuan, revealing a resentful expression as he collected his holy qi back before arching his hand at Cai Jin and saying, “The Grand Chief has come at the right time, in the Cai Clan, there are some matters that are indeed not quite in line with the rules when it comes to having this son of the family do them. The next matter will be handled by the Grand Master!”
“Just two grubs in the district, this Chief Steward will never forgive him …… lightly ……”
Cai Jin, with a smile on his face, turned his head and stared at Chu Siyuan’s body, and at that moment, his heart beat furiously, and his entire body was stunned.
That was the …… Painting Saint Ancestor?
It was true that Cai Jin hadn’t crossed over into the Saint realm, but as a great governor of a medieval family, his status was by no means below a Saint realm giant, so naturally, he had seen the Painting Sect Ancestor before.
Therefore, in the first moment, he recognized Chu Siyuan.
The renowned Painting Sage, one of the four great masters of the Confucian Way, was actually treated as a food and drink cheating vermin and stopped outside the Cai Clan’s Sacred Mansion?
