Combat Emperor: Zhang Yu's Journey
Chapters... 21: The Valley of Flowers
"First Chief, are you okay?" Zhang Xu's five followers asked anxiously over the old man's condition.
Zhang Xu straightened his body without answering the questions of his five followers. Eyes were only fixed on the pair of father and son in front of him. "It turns out you have a protective artifact. I really underestimated you guys too much."
Zhang Long did not understand what Zhang Xu was talking about. The tail of his eyes glanced at Zhang Yu and slowly began to understand him.
"Yu'er, did you do it?"
"Yes, Dad. I took out the armor's armor."
Zhang Long did not ask from where his son could possess such a protective artifact. After the universe sword, it should also be a protective artifact obtained from his teacher.
"You guys don't get too happy. I'm not done!" Seeing the interaction between Zhang Long and Zhang Yu, Zhang Xu's face immediately turned a dead red.
His hand took out the fire dragon sword then prepared to blast through the murderous sword technique. But at this second, the sound of the baritone made the shadow of the giant claws in the air instantly vanish instantly.
"First Chief, what kind of commotion are you creating here?"
Zhang Xu's frown furrowed markedly, he twisted his body and found Zhang Lei walking from the direction of the courtyard gate.
"Patriark, I'm not here to create a commotion. But I want to hold you accountable!"
"What responsibility are you intending to strike with a murderous sword technique? Even if there's a problem, we're still a family."
Zhang Xu laughed sarcastically at Zhang Lei's words. "Patriark, you should know what he's done. During the previous final round, he attacked Feng'er's stopping point. Now that he was conscious, Feng'er was unable to sense Qi. He lost his cultivation base!"
Zhang Lei was stunned to hear Zhang Xu's story. The surprise is not made up. But he kept trying to calm down, then walked over to Zhang Yu.
"The First Elder said you have deliberately attacked Zhang Feng's stopping point. How are you gonna explain it?"
"First Chief, you said I did it. But do you have any evidence to accuse me?" ask Zhang Yu.
Zhang Xu narrowed his eyes, his gaze becoming sharp. "Bad! It was obvious Feng'er was like that because of fighting with you. Who else do you think it would be if you hadn't done it?"
He-he...
"First Chief, you're so unreasonable. Because someone else could have done it secretly." Zhang Yu did so with great care. So it was impossible for anyone to know back then that his attack hit the stopping point.
Zhang Lei hesitated a bit to make up his mind. On one side was the first elder, while on the other was Zhang Yu. Previously, the Fifth Prince had asked him a lot about Zhang Yu. Even the Fifth Prince said his intention was to invite Zhang Yu to the capital.
"First Chief, you better get back first. The matter about your son, I'll find a way out." Zhang Lei approached Zhang Xu and tried to persuade him.
Zhang Xu was very dissatisfied. But he knew that insisting here was also impossible to avenge his son.
"Zhang Yu, because my Patriarch did not extend this matter. But if within a month Feng'er isn't better, you'll feel the same way he did." Zhang Xu left with his five followers.
Zhang Lei was also about to leave because the commotion had been overcome. But right at this moment a man ran over while calling himself.
"Zhang Kun, what happened?"
The man named Zhang Kun stopped right in front of Zhang Lei. He took a big breath while wiping away the sweat that was pouring out.
"Patriark, something happened in the Valley of Flowers! Suddenly sprung a level four or even five spiritual beast. Some of the clan people who were there were trapped and died on the spot."
Zhang Lei's body stiffened upon hearing Zhang Kun's report. "Are there so many people in our clan?" tanyakanya.
"About a hundred people, Patriarch. But the only survivors survived forty. Including myself." Zhang Kun pointed out the injuries lingering on his body. One claw and two pricks. It barely survived!
"Zhang Kun, how could tier four and five spiritual beasts appear in the valley of flowers?" Zhang Long was also surprised to hear Zhang Kun's story. But there was one point he did not understand.
"I don't understand the Second Elder either. The Valley of Flowers that had long since only been inhabited by third-rate spiritual beasts downwards, now suddenly appeared fourth and fifth-tier spiritual beasts. It's totally unexpected and very strange!"
Zhang Lei while stroking his beard also thought about it. His face showed tension and also pressure at the same time.
"Second Elder, Zhang Kun, gather elders as well as those of the grand master level. We go to the valley of flowers to check."
"Okay, Patriarch!"
Zhang Lei and Zhang Kun left first. Zhang Long turned around intending to tell Zhang Yu to stay at home guarding his aunt. But ....
"Rohh ... Where'd this kid go?" murmured Zhang Long.
...
On the other side.
Zhang Yu had left the residence heading to the flower valley upon hearing the appearance of the fourth and fifth level spiritual beasts. He slipped away knowing that the father could not possibly let him go with the dangerous flower valley situation.
Zhang Yu's strength was indeed impossible to defeat tier four and five spiritual beasts. Even a third-rate spiritual beast might still be very difficult.
But this is a rare opportunity. As long as it could obtain the spiritual beast core, it was clearly an advantage to him.
After some time traveling, Zhang Yu arrived at the place he had been to a few days ago. He darted inside without saying much, but a different feeling could actually be felt by him
"What is this power aura? Why is it so thick?!" Zhang Yu was excited. But on the other hand, I am worried too.
A mill from the entrance of the flower valley, Zhang Yu saw dozens of corpses lying with bodies torn to shreds. Their clothes looked familiar, especially the black belt with dragon motifs. It was no longer wrong if they were the people of the Zhang Clan.
Zhang Yu stopped his steps and examined them more closely. The closer to them, the nose can catch the pugnacious aroma.
"Uhhhh! Are they scared to piss in their pants?" Zhang Yu did not realize that the scent of the porpoise did not come from the bodies of the Zhang Clan people. It comes from the ground around.
Zhang Yu was also unaware, if at the moment a pair of sharp eyes were scouting him from a distance. Round eyes blend yellow and black, with a bright red cornea. It looks intimidating and scary.
