Combat Emperor: Zhang Yu's Journey
Chapters... 20: The Anger of the First Elder
After Xuan Yin left, Zhang Yu positioned himself in a state of sitting cross-legged. Taking out the three spiritual beast cores that he had gathered.
The first step, he took out one of the three spiritual beast cores. Putting hands together then flowing Qi regularly.
A moment later his palm glowed emitting a light which then spread absorbed into his body.
Time after time passed and the power energy at the core of the spiritual beast vanished unceasingly. Yet Zhang Yu was still stuck at the level of a nine-star expert, making him immediately take out another spiritual beast core and then do the same.
...
The afternoon changed, the afternoon changed the night. Zhang Long stood in front of the door of Zhang Yu's room with a man dressed in luxury. The look of his face looks sad because he never knocks on the door when the figure next to him wants to meet his son.
"Sorry, Fifth Prince. But it seemed that the current Zhang Yu could not be bothered. What if I wait for him for a minute?
Xuan Wu shook his head in a fit of resignation. "Because Zhang Yu can't be bothered, so Elder Zhang Long alone gave it away." His hand reached into his pocket, taking out a token with the emblem of the Xuan Empire.
"I hope that Zhang Yu can go to the capital and meet me. I will definitely be very welcoming to her when I come there."
Zhang Long was momentarily stunned staring at the token that was already in his hands. The Empire Token, when one possessed it, it was the same as acknowledging as a part of them.
Zhang Yu got the token from the Fifth Prince, it was the same as acknowledging Zhang Yu as part of it.
"Thank you for the Fifth Prince's appreciation, Zhang Yu will definitely come to the capital as soon as possible."
Xuan Wu smiled. "Because the purpose of coming here has been achieved, all I want to say goodbye to Elder Zhang Long. Also wanted to convey the greetings of Seventh Brother who was not feeling well so could not say goodbye directly."
"It's a real honor." Zhang Long escorted Xuan Wu to the front yard. Upon seeing the young man leave his residence, Zhang Long immediately ran towards Zhang Yu's room.
"Is Yu'er still locked up in her room?" The loud noise coming from behind made Zhang Long turn his head.
"Yet. But I don't think he'll be out much longer."
Like hearing his father's words. Right at this moment Zhang Yu opened the door of his room. His face seemed as radiant as finding the most precious gem.
Zhang Long and Zhang Bing looked at each other as if figuring out what had happened to Zhang Yu. At first it was still unaware, until Zhang Yu unleashed a hint of his strength.
"Master level?! Yu'er, how did you do it?" Zhang Long could not help himself and shook the very body of the son.
On returning home from the valley of the skull Zhang Yu was still at the level of an eight-star expert. Yesterday had already developed into a nine-star expert level. Now he broke through to the master level.
What kind of talent is this?! Is there still a younger generation in Qian Gu City that can compare to his son?
"Auntie doesn't know how you did it. But Auntie is so proud of you! Oh yeah, your dad has something he wants to give you."
Zhang Bing's words resuscitated Zhang Long. He immediately stuck out his hand hand handing over the imperial token that the Fifth Prince had given him. "Save it and if there's time come to the Capital. It will be good for your future because after all Qian Gu City is a backward one compared to the other three cities."
Zhang Yu accepted the token and looked at it for some time. "So he's back in the Capital" he said.
Zhang Bing looked at the dreamy Zhang Yu. He immediately pulled the tip of his nephew's clothes. "Do you intend to leave after only a few days?"
Sounds like a question, but it's actually a warning.
"Curtain! Since when are you so good at persuading? I really didn't know your mouth was so sweet." Zhang Bing turned his wheelchair and performed into the dining room. "Come on! Don't just stand there. I've prepared a good meal."
"Okay, we're coming!"
That night, Zhang Yu wasted time enjoying the delicious fine dining made by his aunt. Although only three, but the atmosphere really feels crowded and fun.
There is only one thing missing: the whereabouts of his mother. Since childhood, Zhang Yu has never seen his mother. He only knew his name, his mother's name was Xiao Mei.
Everyone said that his mother had died. But somehow Zhang Yu found it hard to accept that. Especially when he asked his father, with various reasons continue to try to avoid giving him answers.
...
The night passed and the day changed. The next morning, Zhang Yu woke up as usual and was about to go to the clan library.
But just out the door, some people barged into the courtyard.
"Zhang Yu's! It just so happens that you're out!" Zhang Xu, the old man came with some of his followers. Looking from her face that looked extremely angry, she must have come with no good intentions.
"First Chief, why are you looking for me? Is there anything important?" Zhang Yu asked as if he knew nothing. Of course this managed to make Zhang Xu's face even darker.
"Damn it! I'm really gonna teach you a lesson!"
That sixty-five year old man was already about to release his power energy. However it instantly stopped when Zhang Long suddenly appeared in front of him.
"First Chief, what are you doing?!"
Zhang Xu snorted. "Zhang Long! You should know what your son has done. He secretly attacked my son's stopping point. Now my son can only lie on the bed and he has lost his cultivation base! I don't accept it! I want your son to end up like that too!"
"First Chief, don't overdo it! I won't let you!" Zhang Long put up the body.
But his existence was not considered by Zhang Xu. "Since you're trying to protect her, then don't blame me!"
After saying Zhang Xu instantly shot out with a fist coated in his power. His eyes turned dark red as if he did not hesitate to finish off anyone who tried to block him.
Zhang Long's sweaty forehead felt the pressure radiating from Zhang Xu's body. Despite not knowing if he could withstand Zhang Xu's attack, he forced himself out his strongest defense.
However the difference in strength between a one-star senior level and a five-star grand master was too far away. Once Zhang Xu's fist hit the protective layer that Zhang Long had created, it instantly shattered into pieces.
Zhang Long's eyes twitched, he tried to think of another way to restrain Zhang Xu from harming his son.
At the same time, appeared a sizable silhouette of gold-colored armor protecting Zhang Long.
Zhang Xu thought it was another defense that Zhang Long had. Without thinking for a long time, he immediately hit it. But when he actually placed his punch on the surface of the armor.
All the power he put on his punch seemed to bounce back and hurt him. Zhang Xu was thrown dozens of steps and returned beside some of his people. The old man held his chest and then rubbed the blood on the corner of his lips with his other hand.
"Bad! What was that?!"
