Chapter 62

At the Xiangshan Square, countless gazes were now focused on the center of the square, and many people's eyes were flickering slightly.

"Huh, isn't that Chu Yun, the ninth-ranked expert among the outer sect's top ten? Why is he causing trouble again?"

"That must be Senior Sister Su Yu, right? Chu Yun seems to be a fervent admirer of Senior Sister Su Yu. Now that he sees a man with her, he probably can't stand it, can he?"

"But that man, isn't he the waste from the Ye family of the Great Zhou Dynasty? Why is he here in our Star Constellation Sect?"

"Not only is he here, but he even seems to be holding the spirit value token of an inner sect disciple."

"If a waste can become an inner sect disciple, our Star Constellation Sect must really be in decline!"

"..."

Whispers echoed from all directions, clearly showing that many people were highly interested in the current standoff.

As for the discussions around him, Ye Zhong didn't care at all. His indifferent gaze fell on Chu Yun's face, which was tinged with mockery. After a moment, he sighed and said coolly, "For the sake of Senior Sister Su Yu, I won't kill you today. Slap yourself a hundred times, then get lost."

The calm voice echoed in the square, making many of the Star Constellation Sect disciples, who had been discussing in low voices, slightly stunned. Then their gazes turned to Ye Zhong with incredible expressions!

Doesn't Ye Zhong realize that if he hadn't said this, there might still have been a chance for a peaceful resolution? But now, with these words, given Chu Yun's character, this matter will definitely not end well?

The ninth-ranked expert among the outer sect's top ten is no ordinary person!

And Su Yu's delicate face also showed a bitter smile. Then she reached up to support her forehead, looking as if she couldn't bear to watch.

Perhaps among the many Star Constellation Sect disciples present, only Su Yu understood that Ye Zhong saying such things was really giving her face. If she hadn't spoken up, Su Yu suspected that Chu Yun would have been either dead or crippled by now.

Chu Yun's smile also froze in an instant. He looked at Ye Zhong with an expression of looking at a madman, then after sizing him up from head to toe, he sneered and said, "It seems the sun is really rising in the west. A waste from the Ye family dares to threaten me. Since you don't know when to die, I'll send you on your way!"

As he spoke, Chu Yun stomped his foot and lunged directly at Ye Zhong. A silver light arc flashed in his palm, and he slashed at Ye Zhong's throat. At that moment, Chu Yun's killing intent was boiling!

Ye Zhong's expression was cold, and a hint of killing intent appeared in his eyes. Chu Yun had the strength of the fourth level of Body Tempering. Originally, there was no enmity between them, and he just wanted to teach him a lesson. But this guy actually tried to kill him in one move? If he didn't have some strength, wouldn't he have died here for no reason today?

With this thought, Ye Zhong didn't say any more nonsense. As Chu Yun lunged at him, he shifted his step and took a step back, skillfully dodging Chu Yun's fatal move. Then he turned his hand and struck Chu Yun's back.

The confrontation between the two happened in a flash. Many of the Star Constellation Sect disciples around them didn't even see what happened, only a few skilled individuals showed a look of shock in their eyes!

This Ye Zhong is too strong!

"After that, let's go to the Spirit Medicine Hall." After his move, Ye Zhong didn't even look back at Chu Yun, but said calmly and then walked towards the Spirit Medicine Hall.

Su Yu sighed but didn't follow. Things had reached this point, it seemed that it wasn't the time to exchange spirit medicines anymore?

And many of the Star Constellation Sect disciples who hadn't seen anything clearly now showed strange expressions. Was this Ye Zhong crazy? Thinking about going to the Spirit Medicine Hall at this time? Even if he wanted to go, would Chu Yun let him go so easily?

"Spit—"

Just as almost everyone was thinking this, after his move missed, Chu Yun suddenly trembled, his face turned pale, and a mouthful of blood spewed out. The blood was mixed with bits of flesh, clearly showing that he was seriously injured.

"What!?"

"How is that possible!?"

"Chu Yun was defeated in one move? And he's seriously injured?"

"What happened just now!?"

The Star Constellation Sect disciples around them were stunned for a moment, then they all exclaimed in shock. Most of them didn't see what happened, everything happened in a flash. Many of them thought a fierce battle would follow, but they didn't expect Chu Yun to be defeated so thoroughly in just one move.

Only a few Star Constellation Sect disciples at the fourth level of Body Tempering showed a look of shock in their eyes! Ye Zhong's physical strength was truly beyond expectation. His one move was enough to defeat Chu Yun, the ninth-ranked expert among the outer sect's top ten. For them, who couldn't even rank among the top ten, they would probably be killed in an instant!

No wonder Ye Zhong has the spirit value token of an inner sect disciple. This so-called waste from the Ye family is actually so formidable!

"Ye Zhong..."

Chu Yun, whose face was now as pale as paper, struggled to turn his head. When his gaze fell on Ye Zhong, his eyes flickered with shock and ferocity.

"You actually tried to kill me, you're dead!"

With a ferocious smile, Chu Yun flipped his hand, and a jade token appeared. Then he crushed it with a ferocious expression.

Seeing Chu Yun's action, Su Yu's eyes flickered, and she sighed, also taking out a jade token and crushing it.

This matter has indeed escalated!

"Spit—"

After crushing the jade token, Chu Yun's figure wavered, and another mouthful of blood spewed out, his face becoming even more ghastly. At that moment, he could clearly feel that Ye Zhong's seemingly casual finger strike had hit his heart meridian. If not for the Body Tempering Spirit Technique he practiced, he might have died.

Even with Chu Yun's temperament, a hint of regret and fear appeared in his heart at that moment.

"Who! Who dared to injure my disciple in the Star Constellation Sect!"

"Dear disciple, are you alright?"

Ye Zhong suddenly frowned, and his gaze fell on the figure rushing towards him. The figure landed on the square with a thud, and when his gaze fell on Chu Yun, his expression changed drastically.

This was an old man in a gray robe, with white hair and beard, a round face, and a heavy double chin. Despite this, his eyes were sharp like an eagle's.

But when his gaze fell on Chu Yun, his expression changed sharply. He quickly took out a pill and forced it into Chu Yun's mouth, then patted Chu Yun's body a few times. Chu Yun's internal energy stabilized, and the blood flowing from the corner of his mouth stopped.

After doing this, the old man turned his head, his gaze falling on Ye Zhong, and he sneered, "Boy, was it you who attacked Yun'er?"

Ye Zhong frowned slightly but didn't explain anything, just said coolly, "So what if it was?"

"Hahaha, so what! At such a young age, you are so ruthless, striking at someone's heart meridian in one move! Today, I will cripple your four limbs and have the sect leader give me an explanation!" The old man sneered, not bothering to ask about right or wrong, but stared at Ye Zhong with a look of hatred. This disciple was like a cherished treasure to him, a capital in his struggle for power within the sect. But today, his beloved disciple was injured, and it would take a long time to recover. This was something he couldn't swallow.

With a sneer, the old man took a step forward, and his aura instantly surged. An extremely terrifying pressure instantly enveloped Ye Zhong.

Seventh level of Body Tempering, Bone Marrow Cleansing stage!

This seemingly fat old man actually had such strength. If the opportunity arose, he could even challenge the realm of Martial Dao Xian Tian!

Such strength made him an elder-level figure in the Star Constellation Sect!

And with such a figure making a move, the faces of the surrounding Star Constellation Sect disciples changed slightly, showing a hint of disdain. Although they couldn't say anything with their status, they had seen the whole thing clearly. For this elder to want to cripple a Star Constellation Sect disciple without asking about right or wrong was truly contemptible.

Ye Zhong also knew that saying anything useless now was pointless. He just slowly exhaled, his gaze alert as he stared at the fat old man, and the Asura Sword Seals rapidly formed in his palm.

Even at this moment, Ye Zhong didn't think about begging for mercy or retreating. He wanted to see just how strong a mere seventh-level Body Tempering elder could be!

Seeing Ye Zhong's expression, which seemed to show no intention of retreating, the faces of the surrounding Star Constellation Sect disciples changed slightly. Was this Ye Zhong really planning to resist an elder of the sect? Even as an inner sect disciple, he might not be able to do such a thing?
