"I'm not afraid."
Hearing Chen Heng's words, Zhang Ya shook her head and said softly, "I'm just worried that clansman will fall into the Flowing Cloud Sect and be harmed by those scoundrels.
This trip to the Flowing Cloud Sect will definitely be extremely dangerous; please think about it carefully, clansman. "
"It's fine."
Standing there and looking at Zhang Ya, Chen Heng smiled and said softly, "It's just a bit troublesome.
"Since clansman doesn't want to change your mind …"
Hearing Chen Heng's words, Zhang Ya deeply breathed in before walking forwards and bowing to Chen Heng as she said seriously, "Then please take me with you, clansman.
I am willing to go with clansman to the Flowing Cloud Sect. "
Hearing this, Chen Heng could not help but feel quite surprised.
This trip to the Sky Cloud Sect, anyone with a discerning eye could tell that it would be extremely dangerous.
However, Zhang Ya did not hesitate at all. How could she be so decisive?
This decisiveness, this stubbornness, it was truly moving.
Chen Heng could not help but feel a bit moved, and he felt quite surprised.
"Since it's like that, let's go together."
Standing in place, he was silent for a moment before he opened his mouth again and chuckled.
Within Nine Peaks City, after a few days, Chen Heng set out.
He left Nine Peaks City and slowly headed into the distance, getting closer to the Flowing Cloud Sect and heading inside.
Time gradually passed.
Soon, more than half a month had passed.
Over the past half a month, Chen Heng had finally heard about what had happened in the Flowing Cloud Sect.
"The Flowing Cloud Sect was attacked?"
Hearing the news from the Flowing Cloud Sect, Chen Heng felt quite surprised.
The Flowing Cloud Sect naturally wanted to keep this news under wraps.
It was just that the commotion from that night had been too great, and the outcome had been terrible. Even if the Flowing Cloud Sect wanted to keep this news under wraps, they could not.
As such, even though the Flowing Cloud Sect had done their best to keep it under wraps, this news had still reached Chen Heng.
"Not bad."
Standing in front of Chen Heng and hearing the news from the spies, Zhang Ya could not help but look delighted, "This is an opportunity.
"Clan brother, Junior Sister Hou might be fine now."
She looked at Chen Heng and said seriously, "According to the scouts in the Flowing Cloud Sect, there seemed to be some activity in the Flowing Cloud Sect's prison that night. It seems that an important prisoner escaped."
"Perhaps it's Junior Sister Hou."
She spoke seriously, and unknowingly, she became a bit excited, "If that's the case, perhaps we don't need to go to the Flowing Cloud Sect."
"I'm afraid Junior Sister Hou has already left the Flowing Cloud Sect and left that place."
"We don't need to go to the Flowing Cloud Sect, we just need to stay in Nine Peaks City and wait for Junior Sister Hou to return."
She said seriously as she looked at Chen Heng in front of her.
Hearing her words, the expressions of the other Zhang Family members in the surroundings also changed slightly.
If that was the case, then they would not need to continue heading to the Flowing Cloud Sect.
Chen Heng did not need to be involved, so he continued onwards.
Everything could have been avoided.
At that moment, they all felt quite excited and looked at Chen Heng.
Under their gazes, Chen Heng fell silent for a moment before smiling.
"Interesting."
He chuckled softly, then slowly raised his head and gazed into the distance. In an instant, he gazed into the distance.
Under his gaze, the Heaven's Will interweaved in the distance, forming a heavenly net that covered everything in this area.
"Are there other powers joining in?"
Looking at the heavenly net in the distance, Chen Heng's expression was calm as he thought to himself.
Without a doubt, with Hou Juan's strength, she would not be able to do this.
To the Demon Sect from 30 years ago, the Flowing Cloud Sect might not have been much. However, within Yue Country, the Flowing Cloud Sect was undoubtedly the most powerful sect. Even the other two sects could not compare to it.
Overall, the Flowing Cloud Sect was the most powerful sect in Yue Country.
A mere Foundation Building cultivator like Hou Juan would not be able to do anything to such an existence and cause chaos within the Flowing Cloud Sect.
Evidently, someone else had acted and thrown the situation into chaos.
Hou Juan had taken this opportunity to escape and leave the Flowing Cloud Sect.
It was just that he did not know where she was.
Standing there, Chen Heng fell silent for a moment before once again speaking.
"Continue onwards."
He said softly, "Set out towards the Flowing Cloud Sect."
Hearing this, everyone from the Zhang clan, including Zhang Ya, felt quite startled.
"Wh … Why …"
A look of shock appeared on Zhang Ya's face. Just as she was about to ask Chen Heng, she met his gaze.
In front of her, Chen Heng's expression was calm as he calmly looked at her, not saying anything.
Facing this gaze, Zhang Ya did not continue to speak and only opened her mouth before silently leaving.
She retreated from this place and silently walked to the side.
Following this, the group continued onwards.
Soon, another few days passed.
"As expected, there are some problems within the Flowing Cloud Sect."
A few days later, looking at the Flowing Cloud Sect's emissary, Zhang Ya thought to herself.
Over the past few days, the Flowing Cloud Sect's people continuously came, and messengers were continuously sent over. It seemed that they wanted Chen Heng to quickly go to the Flowing Cloud Sect.
This sort of anxiousness was something that the Flowing Cloud Sect had never seen before.
Evidently, there were some problems within the Flowing Cloud Sect.
If there were no accidents, Hou Juan should have already escaped from the dungeon, just like the rumors said.
It was because of this that the Flowing Cloud Sect was so anxious, wanting Chen Heng to quickly go and capture her.
However, seeing how anxious the emissary was, Zhang Ya felt quite suspicious.
"There are definitely some problems within the Flowing Cloud Sect, and Junior Apprentice Sister Hou is most likely not in the prison."
Standing there and looking at Chen Heng, Zhang Ya inwardly frowned, "It's just that clan brother has not changed his mind …
"Clan brother, just what are you thinking?"
She thought to herself as this thought flashed through her mind.
Undoubtedly, Chen Heng could tell what was going on.
If even she could tell that there was something wrong, with Chen Heng's intelligence, there was no way he would not be able to tell.
However, despite this, he still stuck to his original plan and did not change his mind. He continued to head towards the Flowing Cloud Sect, wanting to go there.
This made others feel quite confused.
Zhang Ya wanted to ask about this, but she did not know where to start.
"Forget it."
In the end, she shook her head and said, "No matter what, Clan Brother must already have an idea."
I just need to stay by clan brother's side, and that will be enough. "
She had long since made her decision. No matter what happened to Chen Heng in the future, she would follow him to the death.
Since that was the case, there was no need for her to hesitate or ask anything.
She would just stay by Chen Heng's side; that was enough.
Time gradually passed.
Soon, it had been a few days.
On the ground, a figure was slowly walking through the wilderness.
Faint sunlight fell on this person's body, making her seem bright.
If someone was here, they would be able to tell that this person was an extraordinarily beautiful woman.
The woman wore white clothes, and there were many wounds all over her body. Her face was extremely pale, as if she was injured, but she did not slow down at all. She quickly passed through the area, continuously advancing.
"I have to be fast, I have to be fast …"
On the road, Hou Juan clutched her chest and forced herself to walk forward.
Over the past few days, she had been moving around and had gathered much information.
This included the Zhang family's movements.
If she was not mistaken, Chen Heng would soon reach the Flowing Cloud Sect.
She had to stop Chen Heng and the others here and tell them everything. Otherwise, it would be too late.
"Cough … cough …"
As she walked, her face became pale and she continuously coughed up blood.
Waves of intense pain emerged from her body, enveloping her from head to toe.
But she didn't care. She just ran forward with all her might, wanting to reach her destination.
It was just that as she desperately advanced, the backlash within her body became more and more terrifying, causing her body to become even weaker.
Amidst the pain, her consciousness gradually became hazy and hazy.
.....
"We're almost there."
On the road, Zhang Ya sat on the carriage and looked into the distance. After estimating the distance, she turned and looked at Chen Heng, "Clan brother, it's not too late to change your mind.
"The Flowing Cloud Sect is just ahead. If we turn around now, they might not be able to catch us."
Looking at Chen Heng, she spoke seriously.
They were now very close to the Flowing Cloud Sect.
For the Flowing Cloud Sect's cultivators, they could already sense Chen Heng's group's existence.
Under these circumstances, they were already in great danger.
If the Flowing Cloud Sect's Profound Understanding cultivators acted, apart from Chen Heng, everyone else would not be able to escape.
However, Zhang Ya was not afraid.
It was fine if they died; as long as Chen Heng could leave this place, the Zhang family would still exist.
As such, it was not too late to change his mind.
"It's too late."
Chen Heng sat within the carriage with his eyes closed. Hearing Zhang Ya's words, he silently shook his head, "Do you smell it?
There's a faint smell of blood. "
He slowly opened his eyes and looked into the distance as he spoke softly.
"What?"
Zhang Ya was stunned.
Bang!
In the distance, a crisp sound suddenly came, accompanied by waves of magic power fluctuations, and the smell of blood spread out when blood was splattered.
Even though it was very faint, the pure smell of blood was detected by everyone present.
"Enemy attack!"
Sensing the magic energy ripples, Zhang Ya's expression slightly changed, and her body turned into a blur as she rushed out of the carriage.
She left this place and quickly rushed into the distance.
However, when she saw the scene in the distance, her expression greatly changed.
"Junior Apprentice Sister Hou!"
In the distance, there was a figure standing there. It was a middle-aged man dressed in black robes. He looked very dignified, and his every movement gave off an extraordinary aura.
In his hand, there was a figure that he was grabbing tightly by the neck.
Zhang Ya was not unfamiliar with this person; in fact, she was quite familiar with him.
It was none other than Hou Juan.
Her face was as pale as paper, and her aura was incredibly weak. It was as if she could die at any moment, and she was powerless to resist being gripped by the middle-aged man.
"Who are you?"
Seeing this, Zhang Ya's pupils constricted as she looked at the middle-aged man in front of her.
As soon as she finished speaking, the middle-aged man in front of her did not reply. He only silently turned around and looked at Zhang Ya.
In the next moment, a fatal pressure descended.
An extremely terrifying aura surged forth, as if it was connected to the power of the heavens and earth, wrapping up the heavens and earth in all four directions and pressing down together, turning into a palm that reached out towards Zhang Ya.
The massive power exploded out, surpassing the limits of Foundation Building and reaching a new peak.
Profound Understanding!
In that moment, Zhang Ya thought to herself.
Now, after thirty years, she had long since reached the Foundation Establishment Stage. Moreover, even among the Foundation Establishment Stage, she was not considered weak.
To be able to make her feel so terrified with one strike, it was without a doubt, Profound Understanding.
"Am I going to die?"
In front of her, the palm slowly stretched out. It seemed very slow, but in reality, it only happened in a split second.
Feeling the terrifying power in front of her, Zhang Ya's face was full of shock as she thought to herself.
In the next moment, the palm landed on her body.
Following a loud boom, the heavens and earth shook and a series of rustling noises could be heard.
Even the ground was shattered, directly splitting apart, forming deep scars on the surface.
This attack that could destroy mountains and break rivers did not cause any damage to Zhang Ya.
Standing where she was, Zhang Ya gasped for air and finally reacted.
"Hmm?"
In front of her, the middle-aged man frowned. He raised his arm and continued forward.
However, this time, he did not continue to attack Zhang Ya. Instead, he attacked the carriage.
With a loud boom, the entire area was covered by a massive wave of energy. The air around them started to twist and the mountains and rivers started to crumble. Everything was shaking and shaking.
The impact of a single strike was actually so terrifying that it was terrifying.
However, when such a terrifying attack landed, it didn't cause any results.
There seemed to be a layer of invisible ripples in the surroundings that instantly enveloped the area, directly canceling out the power contained in the attack and causing no results.
Seeing this, the middle-aged man looked quite disbelieving and prepared to attack again.
However, at that moment, something completely new happened within the carriage.
Bang! Bang!
Light sounds could be heard from within.
The majestic sound was like some kind of war drum, exceptionally loud and clear.
An inexplicable sound came from all directions.
Following this, a figure slowly got up and walked out from within the carriage.
Boom! Boom!
The void around him twisted. Vaguely, spiritual light flickered everywhere, turning into waves of divine light that made the figure look as tall and majestic as a Fiendgod.
The middle-aged man could not help but take a step back, a look of shock on his face.
"This … how is this possible?"
A look of shock appeared on his face, and he could not believe it.
They were both at the Profound Understanding realm, but this person had not even appeared or attacked, yet he already had such terrifying might.
How was this possible?
In the next moment, he could not think about this anymore.
That was because a formless beam of divine light shot over and slammed into his body, quickly sending him flying.
His body retreated and crashed heavily into a huge mountain, causing the mountain to collapse and collapse.
Formless magic energy rampaged about within his body, directly injuring him.
With just a simple attack, he had defeated a Profound Understanding realm cultivator.
This level of strength directly stunned Zhang Ya who was watching from the side.
"What are you standing there for?"
A voice suddenly sounded out. It was incredibly gentle but gave off an unusual sense of majesty.
Zhang Ya instinctively turned around and saw Chen Heng calmly standing there by himself.
When he got down from the carriage, his figure didn't look any different from before. He was still as tall and straight as before.
Under the sunlight, the young man's figure appeared, looking quite calm.
However, Hou Juan was no longer in the middle-aged man's hands; she had been grabbed by Chen Heng.
"This is?"
Standing there and looking at Hou Juan, Chen Heng inwardly frowned.
To be honest, Hou Juan's current situation was a little terrible.
There were numerous hidden injuries all over his body, as well as many other minor injuries. It was an extremely troublesome sight to deal with.
If it was just that, it would not be a big deal. However, there were even deeper injuries on her body.
These were not simple injuries but damage to her Spirit Foundation.
"Just what happened?"
After examining Hou Juan's body and sensing her injuries, Chen Heng inwardly frowned.
Damage to one's Spirit Foundation was no simple matter.
Chen Heng had a lot of authority on this.
In the past, as a True Lord, he had been incredibly powerful, but facing damage to his Spirit Foundation, he had been helpless and could only pass away.
For even a True Lord to be like this, it could be imagined just how troublesome these injuries were.
However, at the same time, such troublesome injuries were not something that could be caused so easily.
Just what had happened to Hou Juan's body?
At that moment, Chen Heng thought to himself.
However, this was not the most important thing right now.
Standing there, Chen Heng handed Hou Juan to Zhang Ya and turned to look at the middle-aged man.
The middle-aged man had already gotten up and was looking at Chen Heng with an unsightly expression.
