"Zhang Xuan?" The middle-aged lady's body stiffened. "The person that Hu Yiwei spoke of … Zhang Xuan?"
"Jian Qinsheng came from the Sanctum of Sages, so it goes without saying that the person he brought with him is that person. To think that we would have missed him …" the middle-aged man said with a bitter smile.
Disregarding the attitude of the elders in their clan, they had headed straight to the Sanctum of Sages to look for Zhang Xuan. They wanted to see if he was the one they had been searching for twenty years … Who could have thought that the person they had been searching for was already in their clan?
If they had not gone out previously, they might have already met him by now!
More importantly … they had met once along the way, but fate had played a trick on them, and they had missed each other just like that.
If only they had known that this would happen, they would have greeted Jian Qinsheng's beast.
"Since he's in the Zhang clan, we should hurry back. It's not too late now!"
The middle-aged lady said.
It was fortunate that they had learned of this beforehand, or else it would be too late for them to cry when they arrived at the Sanctum of Sages.
Hula!
Upon hearing those words, the beast beneath them hurriedly turned around and flew back.
Seeing the swift flight of the beast, the middle-aged lady heaved a sigh of relief before turning to the middle-aged man with a worried and anxious look in her eyes. "Quick, ask him what kind of person Zhang Xuan is, what does he look like, and what kind of personality he has …"
Knowing what his wife was worried about, the middle-aged man grabbed her hand and said, "Don't worry. Since Hu Yiwei has confirmed it, and he's in the ancient domain, there shouldn't be any mistake …"
The middle-aged lady's body swayed weakly. "I'm still worried …"
"We have been searching for him for so many years, and we have failed so many times. Even if he isn't, there's no doubt that he has something to do with our child!"
The middle-aged man nodded. "Otherwise, how could he possibly be so outstanding without inheriting my talent? Even Hu Yiwei was shocked by his prowess at such a young age!"
"Pfft!"
Hearing those words, the middle-aged lady burst into laughter. She patted the middle-aged man's chest and said, "Stop being so narcissistic!"
Hu!
The Communication Jade Token jolted once more, and a message was sent over. The middle-aged man tapped on it lightly, and the duo on the back of the beast saw a video playing.
A young man charged into the Guardian Formation of the Zhang Clan alone. Following which, the Dragon Spirit submitted, the Tiger Spirit collapsed, and countless buildings were reduced to dust.
The young man slowly turned around, and a proud expression appeared on his face.
"It must be him …"
Seeing the other party's appearance, the beautiful woman's body swayed, and she hurriedly covered her mouth, seemingly unable to control her emotions.
"He doesn't look like you or me …"
The middle-aged man frowned.
"He doesn't look like you or me, but his eyes are exactly the same as when he was young. There's no way I'm mistaken!" The beautiful woman clenched her fists tightly.
Over the past twenty years, they had met thousands of times in their dreams. Although she didn't know what he would look like when he grew up, she was certain that this was her son. There was no mistake!
No matter how much his appearance changed as he grew up, the impact he felt when he saw her for the first time would never change!
It was a kind of kinship, a kind of relationship where blood was thicker than water.
"But … the Third Elder said that he had gone to the Blood Reservoir to examine Zhang Xuan, and not only is his bloodline completely unrelated to the Zhang family, his soul is also completely unaffected as well. It has already been confirmed that he has no ties with Zhang Xuan at all!"
The middle-aged man was relatively more rational.
"Blood pool?" The beautiful woman sneered, "They still have the face to talk about blood pool? It's not like you don't know what happened back then. How did they treat that poor child of mine? Even if he survives, he won't have the slightest bit of the Zhang family's bloodline, so he has no ties with the Zhang family at all. However … he does have my bloodline running through his veins, and I can sense that he's my son. There's no mistaking it! "
"Since you're so certain about it, there's no doubt about it. However … that Zhang Xuan seems to be quite a troublemaker. In less than a day after he arrived at the Zhang family, he caused a huge ruckus and caused countless buildings to collapse!"
Seeing that his wife had confirmed the matter, the middle-aged man turned his gaze downward and shook his head. "The First Elder has already decided to have Zhang Xu and the others teach him a lesson so that he'll know the might of the Zhang family!"
"The might of the Zhang family? That Zhang Wuheng sure is brazen! If he dares to harm a single hair on my son, I swear that I'll tear down the ancestral shrine of the Zhang family when we return, or else I won't be Wang Mengya! "the beautiful woman bellowed with narrowed eyes as a powerful aura burst forth from her body.
Sensing this powerful aura, the aerial saint beast beneath her shrunk back in fright, and it plummeted several hundred meters from the sky, nearly plummeting to the ground.
"Let's go. We'll only know if Zhang Xuan is the one we're looking for with our own eyes. It's meaningless for us to dwell on such matters at the moment!"
The middle-aged man waved his hand before instructing the remaining saint beasts to hurry back to the Zhang family.
…
"Our clan head has already agreed to the duel. As long as you can defeat us, we'll have a duel with you!"
Zhang Xu and the others walked into the room once more.
"It's good that you've agreed to it!"
Zhang Xuan's lips curled up into a smile as he stood up and walked to the center of the room. With a wave of his hand, he asked, "Who wants to go first?"
"I'll go!"
Zhang Qin leaped forward with a furious roar. With a flick of his wrist, he drew a straight line with his sword and pierced it into the air, leaving a white trail in its wake.
"Swordsmanship!"
Even though Jian Qinsheng had not made a move yet, he could tell that none of his direct disciples were a match for Zhang Xuan.
"I'll suppress my cultivation to the same level as you right now!"
Knowing that the young man before him would not be an easy opponent to deal with, Zhang Qin took a deep breath and suppressed his cultivation to Grand Dominion realm pinnacle, the same level as Zhang Xuan.
"Make your move!"
After suppressing his cultivation, Zhang Qin raised his sword and pointed it at Zhang Xuan.
"I don't need my sword to deal with you. Two fingers will suffice!"
With a faint smile, Zhang Xuan raised his index and middle fingers together, and a surge of zhenqi shot out from his fingertips. The surge of zhenqi flowed back and forth until it was three chi long, reminiscent of a sword.
"You're courting death!"
Seeing how arrogant Jian Qinsheng was, Zhang Qin did not say anything else. He flicked his sword and thrust it toward Zhang Xuan.
Tzla!
Time seemed to have frozen in that instant. Zhang Qin and his sword seemed to have vanished into thin air. Be it with the naked eye or Spiritual Perception, it was impossible to detect them.
"Zhang Shi, be careful!"
Upon seeing this sight, Jian Qinsheng could tell that the young man before him had executed his strongest Speed Sword Quintessence right from the get-go.
Many of his direct disciples had lost to this move. Even though they had comprehended the Defense Sword Quintessence, they were still defeated before they could even react.
This fellow had used his strongest move right from the get-go. Could it be that Zhang Shi would be caught off guard and injured by it?
If that was really the case, he would be in deep trouble!
Peng!
Just as Jian Qinsheng was panicking, he suddenly heard a dull thud. Following which, the vanished Zhang Qin was sent flying into the wall not too far away. On the other hand, Zhang Xuan seemed to have not moved at all. The zhenqi at the tip of his finger was still flickering, and there was not a single ripple of shock on his face.
"It's easier than I thought. Next!"
