Chapter 763 Come Out for a Cup of Tea
This news was something he wouldn't have known, had it not been for the family head personally inquiring about it.
However, Zhou Qingming was unclear about which side had lost.
Although Zhou Qingming had always wanted to spar with Nan Zhu, upon seeing him today, Zhou Qingming vaguely understood where his own shortcomings lay.
Too young…
Zhou Qingming knew he had always been called the youngest martial artist of the Zhou family, but compared to Nan Zhu, there was still a gap.
The ages of the other three War Gods were similarly the case.
As he thought of this, a name suddenly appeared in Zhou Qingming's mind.
The Medical Saint Divine Venerable of the Celestial Physician Hall!
Rumor had it that this fellow wasn't old either!
Zhou Qingming sighed slightly before saying to the other two Grandmaster peak experts, "If you truly wish to spar with Nan Zhu, I won't stop you."
"However, whether you can safely leave the Southwest afterward will be beyond my control."
"Nan Zhu's relationship with the Southwest Prefecture leans more towards cooperation. The representative of the Southwest Prefecture is not Nan Zhu, but Jiang Luo. If I recall correctly, that fellow is the son-in-law of the Zhu family. While the Grandmaster peak martial artists in the Southwest Prefecture may not be as strong as Nan Zhu, do not underestimate all the martial artists who reside here!"
What the Southwest Prefecture represented, and the opponents they faced daily, were not few. The combat experience of all the martial artists within the prefecture was definitely much greater than that of the Zhou family.
As soon as the Zhou family's Grandmaster peak experts left, the crying within the Zhu family immediately stopped.
Zhu Wenyu immediately said to Chen Yang, "Quickly help see if there are any serious injuries."
What Zhu Wenyu was referring to was naturally Zhu Wenwu's body, as the mouthful of blood just now was not fake but was genuinely spat out.
However, before Chen Yang could act, Zhu Wenwu chuckled, "It's alright, it's alright. Nothing to worry about. It's just that during these past few days of recovery, there was a lot of stagnant blood in my body, and I took this opportunity to expel it."
Hearing this, everyone else breathed a sigh of relief.
After looking at each other, they all revealed smiles.
"These people from the Zhou family are not to be trifled with. We still need to keep a close eye on them. Old Jiang, arrange for someone to protect those three. It's not convenient for the Zhu family to appear."
Although Zhu Wenyu spoke of protection, everyone understood the underlying meaning.
Jiang Luo immediately nodded, "Rest assured, I've already secretly arranged for martial artists. It doesn't matter if they discover them."
"However, I believe these people will not linger in the Southwest for long."
Seeing that the matter was almost settled, Chen Yang was about to help Zhu Wenyu treat the injury on his leg when Zhou Zeyao's call suddenly came through.
As soon as the call was connected, Chen Yang heard the shock on the other end, "Chen Yang, are you guys crazy? A Grandmaster peak, just crippled like that? Even delaying them would have been better. If they're crippled, they'll have to cultivate again, when will that be?"
Zhou Zeyao felt like he could eat people. They had agreed to deal with the Zhou family, and now a Grandmaster peak expert had suddenly disappeared, which greatly increased the pressure on them.
After all, the number of Grandmaster peak experts in the Zhou family was not ordinary.
Chen Yang did not answer the question, but instead let out a cold snort, "Old Zhou, this matter was handled unethically by you. We agreed earlier that if there was any movement from the Zhou family, you would notify us immediately."
"But what did you do? Zhou Qingming brought two Grandmaster peak experts, and I don't even know who they are or what their strengths are!"
"The Zhu family is even more so. If they didn't resort to this desperate measure, how could they deal with these three? Who knows if the Zhou family has any Grandmaster peak experts secretly following them."
Zhou Zeyao coughed awkwardly. This was indeed his problem.
However, there was no other way. He never had a chance to notify Chen Yang and the others.
"Alright, alright, this is my fault, I'll take the blame. But there was truly no other way. Although the old foxes of the Zhou family have outwardly accepted me, they've secretly sent people to follow me. If I hadn't found an excuse to slip away, I might not have had the chance to call you."
"As for those three people you mentioned, one is Zhou Qingming, and the other two are not Zhou family martial artists, but two enforcers. If a fight were to break out, only Zhou Qingming would fight with his life on the line, the other two definitely wouldn't."
"As for Zhou Qingming's strength, he is very good at hiding it, and he has reached the Grandmaster peak for quite some time. Among the martial artists in the Zhou family, he can rank among the top five. But even if he's stronger, he can't defeat you, can he?"
"If you have the chance, just keep those three and teach the Zhou family a lesson!"
When Chen Yang heard this, he did not agree at all and rolled his eyes. "Stop talking nonsense. If you want to act, you do it yourself. The Zhu family has already taken such a big fall for you and me. If we act again, the entire Zhou family will likely mobilize!"
Chen Yang was not stupid. Some things couldn't be pushed too far. It was not yet time for the decisive battle.
"Hahaha, I understand what you mean. I'm just letting off some steam. By the way, there's something I haven't asked you yet. After you woke up, has your strength improved at all?" Zhou Zeyao's tone was laced with unconcealed anxiety.
Ever since Zhou Zeyao left the Southwest, he had been constantly thinking about what realm Chen Yang had reached.
Chen Yang knew that Zhou Zeyao would definitely ask this question and said with a cold laugh, "It's no problem to beat you!"
After a bit of casual chat, Chen Yang then told Zhou Zeyao about his spiritual breakthrough and how he had broken through Hu Feng's illusion technique.
"That's a top-tier illusion technique! Although Hu Feng learned it herself and didn't receive my guidance, so she didn't grasp some of the essence, she shouldn't have been able to break it so easily. It seems your mental strength has truly reached its peak!"
"After some time, when you return to Qingzhou, apply for a transfer to Qingzhou, and we'll talk when we meet."
"The person watching me has arrived. I have to hang up now."
At this moment, Zhou Zeyao quickly hung up the phone. He leisurely sat by the lake and took a sip of tea before quickly turning his head to look behind him.
"When did you two arrive? Since you're here, why don't you come out for a cup of tea?"
The two Grandmaster peak experts who had been monitoring Zhou Zeyao were shocked. They had just found Zhou Zeyao and had only been there for less than two seconds before he had already discovered them!
