Within the quiet and spacious room, the atmosphere became quite strange.
In the surroundings, many people were sitting cross-legged and looking around.
Hearing the middle-aged cultivator's words, the Zhang clan's cultivators all remained silent.
No one dared to speak, nor did anyone dare to agree to the middle-aged cultivator's conditions.
After all, the middle-aged cultivator's conditions were simply too dangerous. If they were not careful, it was possible that the entire Zhang clan would be destroyed.
None of the people present dared to answer for Chen Heng.
However, if they did not agree, the Flowing Cloud Sect's conditions were right in front of them.
This was none other than the Flowing Cloud Sect.
Even though the Zhang clan had developed very well over the past few decades, and they were known as the fourth major faction in Yue Country, they were only second to the three major factions in Yue Country.
However, everyone knew that this reputation had been built up by Chen Heng alone.
It was because of Chen Heng, a Profound Understanding realm cultivator, that the Zhang clan had such power.
However, even so, compared to the Flowing Cloud Sect, the Zhang clan was just a minor figure and was not a match for the Flowing Cloud Sect.
If Chen Heng did not go and the Flowing Cloud Sect questioned him …
Thinking of this, everyone's heart sank, and they couldn't help but fall silent.
Looking at Zhang Chong and the others' expressions, the middle-aged cultivator once again smiled and said softly, "Chief Zhang, why are you so worried?
The Zhang clan's Chief is also from our Flowing Cloud Sect and is a disciple of our Flowing Cloud Sect. Going back this time is just to confront the demonic disciple; it is not a big deal.
Even if our Flowing Cloud Sect blames him, what can we do to your clan's Chief?
This time, we are just going to have the Zhang clan's Chief investigate; it will not involve anything else. "
The middle-aged cultivator smiled and said solemnly, "I swear that nothing will happen to the Zhang family and the Flowing Cloud Sect, and your clan's leader will return safely."
His expression was solemn as he looked at Zhang Chong and the others before him.
Even though he looked serious on the surface, he did not care about what he said at all.
No matter what, he would just say some pleasantries first.
After the other party entered the Flowing Cloud Sect, it would not be up to him to decide what to do.
Thinking to there, the middle-aged man's smile became even wider, and his expression became even more sincere.
The Zhang Clan members in front of him couldn't help but be shaken by his words.
"Could it be … it's really just an ordinary summons, and he doesn't intend to harm the clan leader?"
"That's right, our Zhang family has been here for so many years, why would the Flowing Cloud Sect directly attack us …"
Looking at the sincere and solemn expression on the middle-aged man's face, they could not help but be shaken, and many thoughts flashed through their minds.
Even Zhang Chong hesitated for a moment.
But in next to no time, he recovered from his shock, and a wisp of terror appeared in his heart.
He looked at the middle-aged man in front of him and forced a smile before saying, "Emissary …"
"There's no need to say more."
Looking at Zhang Chong, the middle-aged cultivator rose to his feet. His face flickered. "I have conveyed your message. Whether or not you will go is up to you and your noble clan's Patriarch."
"Can you give me an answer now so that I can report back?"
He got up from where he was, stood there, and said indifferently.
The moment he opened his mouth, an indescribable aura was released. It was like an invisible force field that spread in all directions and pressed down on the chests of everyone present.
In the blink of an eye, everyone's expression changed slightly as they felt a great pressure bearing down on them.
"Foundation Building!"
They looked at the middle-aged cultivator in front of them with shock on their faces.
Even though they had developed for 30 years, apart from Chen Heng and the others, there were only a few Foundation Building cultivators in the Zhang clan.
Of all the Zhang Clan members present, Zhang Ya was the only one who had reached the Foundation Establishment stage. Everyone else, including Zhang Chong, was still lacking.
Sensing the aura coming from the middle-aged cultivator's body, their faces involuntarily flickered. They could feel an intense atmosphere of oppression bearing down on their bodies without respite.
It was as if there was a massive mountain weighing down on them, making them feel quite shocked.
Even though they were both at Foundation Building, Zhang Ya felt a massive pressure, and she inwardly frowned.
Evidently, this envoy from the Flowing Cloud Sect had a higher cultivation than her.
Sensing the aura around her, she inwardly frowned and prepared to get up.
Around her, a clear sound could be heard.
In the distance, the sound of footsteps slowly rang out. It went from low to clear, and the sound slowly spread to this place.
Bang! Bang!
The strange sound of a heartbeat could be heard, as if there was a ferocious beast approaching. Its heart continuously beat, giving off a terrifying lifeforce.
After that inexplicable aura appeared, everyone immediately felt an inexplicable change.
The surrounding heaven and earth seemed to have changed. At this moment, the entire heaven and earth seemed to be fading. Everything lost its luster and color. The entire heaven and earth only had the sound of heavy footsteps, which caused people to feel fear.
In front of Zhang Chong, the middle-aged cultivator's expression finally changed.
Perhaps others would not feel it, but at that moment, he felt a suffocating pressure.
The sound of footsteps came from outside, and each step seemed to be stepping on his body. It was as if a mountain was collapsing, and the pressure seemed to be able to knock him down.
A terrifying power exploded out, causing everyone to feel a suffocating sense of terror.
His spirit was collapsing. Vaguely, a figure that looked like a Fiendgod slowly moved forward and approached this place.
Bang!
In the next moment, his face became extremely pale, and he took a huge step back. He looked at the outside world in disbelief, at the place where he was looking.
Under his gaze, the figure of a youth slowly appeared in this place.
The young man was very handsome and had long hair. He looked quite young, but his eyes gave off an ancient aura and gave off an extraordinary aura.
At this moment, he stood there alone. Just by standing there alone, it was as if he was the core of this world, so different from the masses.
A unique aura spread out from his body, enveloping the entire area and turning it into a domain that belonged solely to him.
Standing there and looking at the young man, the middle-aged cultivator and the others were dumbfounded, and their faces became somewhat pale.
"Profound Understanding …"
He stood there and looked at the young man in the distance as he gritted his teeth. By now, he knew who this young man was.
There was no doubt that in the Zhang Clan, who else could possess such prestige and such elegance besides the legendary Clan Leader of the Zhang Clan?
This time, their goal for coming here was the other party. However, when they actually saw the other party, the scene was shocking.
The might from this Zhang family's leader was much more powerful than the Profound Understanding cultivators they had seen in the past.
Profound Understanding cultivators were above Foundation Building, and only those at the peak of Foundation Building could become Profound Understanding cultivators.
Even within the Sky Cloud Martial School, such experts were rare. They were absolute powerhouses, and in the Sky Cloud Martial School, they were respected elders and enjoyed great honor. Foundation Building cultivators could not compare to them.
However, the middle-aged cultivator could sense that the might from this Zhang family's leader was much more powerful than that of the Elders in the Flowing Cloud Sect.
The fact that he had been sent to the Zhang Clan to serve as a messenger indicated that he was by no means weak. Even among Foundation Establishment cultivators, he could be considered to be one of the stronger ones.
However, even he could not help but tremble as he looked at the figure in front of him. Sensing the aura coming from his body, he could not summon any thoughts of fighting him.
His body uncontrollably trembled, and he instinctively felt fear.
However, after a moment, he calmed down and breathed in before saying, "What is clan leader's purpose in coming here?
Are you going to act against us? "
He felt quite nervous as he looked at the young man.
Before coming, the Flowing Cloud Sect's Elders had given him a magic tool. Even if a Profound Understanding cultivator attacked, it could temporarily protect him and give him a chance to escape.
However, it seemed that he had no chance at all.
The person in front of him was far more powerful than ordinary Profound Understanding cultivators, and it was possible that he had surpassed ordinary Elders.
Even if he took out a magic tool, what could he do?
He would only anger the other party for nothing.
As such, it was better to be direct.
"Didn't you want to see me?"
Outside the courtyard, Chen Heng stood there by himself.
Under the faint sunlight, he stood there, his white robes draping down his body. He looked quite talented, and his hair fell to the ground.
Looking at the middle-aged cultivator and the others, his expression was calm as he said softly, "Now, I'm here."
I'm here.
As the sound of his voice faded, everyone's expression changed drastically. They felt an invisible force rushing towards them from all directions, corroding their souls and disintegrating their strength.
The middle-aged cultivator's face flickered, turning pale and devoid of blood.
"Go back and tell them."
Looking at the middle-aged man and the others' reactions, Chen Heng said calmly, "In three months, I will set off to explore the Flowing Cloud Sect.
Before that, I hope that Junior Apprentice Sister Hou is fine. "
"Don't worry, Senior Apprentice Brother Zhang."
Hearing Chen Heng's words, the middle-aged man's face was pale as he nodded and said with difficulty, "We will definitely pass on Senior Apprentice Brother's words."
Chen Heng had come from the Flowing Cloud Sect, and even though he had not gone there for many years, he still had his status as an Inner Court Disciple.
As such, it was not a problem for the middle-aged man to call him Senior Apprentice Brother.
After hurriedly saying this, he deeply bowed to Chen Heng before quickly leaving with his people, not daring to stay here any longer.
