Chapter 71 Conquering the Mountains! Overbearing

"Where is Uncle Fu?!"

With just one strike, without even a visible movement, Xu Zhe, the supervisor of the dark prison, was sent flying, his fate unknown. The others, seeing Xu Changjun's indifferent expression, couldn't help but shudder, and no one dared to be stubborn anymore.

Anyway, it's all the Xu family's own business, so it can't be blamed on them. Their expression gradually returned to normal, and they quickly and respectfully guided the others.

"Young Master, over here, over here..."

After turning the corner, Xu Changjun arrived at a fairly clean prison. He immediately saw Uncle Fu sitting on a straw bed inside. It seemed that he was being taken care of and was not cold or hungry. His condition was not bad, so he felt relieved.

The jailer standing nearby quickly unlocked the door and opened it.

Xu Changjun went inside and helped Uncle Fu out. Uncle Fu wanted to say something, but his lips trembled and he ultimately didn't say a word.

They simply followed Xu Changjun out of the dark prison.

The other prison guards stood at the door, watching the two figures leave, then glanced at the unconscious supervisor Xu Zhe, their expressions gradually becoming strange. They didn't know what to do and stood there dumbfounded for a moment.

……

Xu Changjun brought Uncle Fu back to Lingbi Mountain. None of the men had dared to abandon their posts or run away before, as they had been terrified by Xu Changjun.

So everyone worked very hard, afraid that if they didn't do a good job, Xu Changjun would find another excuse to teach them a lesson.

Now that they see Xu Changjun return, and even bring out the old servant who was previously imprisoned in the dark dungeon, they are even more shocked, but they don't show it on the surface. They keep their eyes down and pretend they can't see anything.

After instructing the others to take good care of Uncle Fu, Xu Changjun gave them a cold look and left.

If you take his things, you have to give them back.

Xu Changjun was not one to be bullied; otherwise, he would have preferred not to stay in the Xu family.

If your mind is not clear, what's the point of cultivating the Tao? What's the point of seeking immortality?!

……

Boom!

When Xu Changjun returned, it happened to be the end of the year when the family was holding an ancestral worship ceremony.

Now that the ceremony is halfway through, it's time for the younger generation to compete and showcase their talents.

Meanwhile, Xu Changjun's fifth young master, Xu Yuanqing, happened to be at the ancestral worship ceremony. He was now uninhibited and taking the opportunity to test the family's attitude.

So using this incident as a pretext actually fulfilled Xu Changjun's wishes.

Although he knew it was the ancestral worship day, Xu Changjun also wanted to know what kind of status a Foundation Establishment cultivator held in the family, so he rushed over without hesitation.

……

As an important activity in the ancestral worship ceremony, the Xu family selects three of its strongest young members each year to compete with outstanding talents from outside the family, thereby enhancing friendship and fostering emotional exchange.

As the most powerful force in Yundong Lake and a dominant force, the Xu family naturally needs external allies to strengthen its power and increase its influence.

Thus, the three factions outside the lake, which had no direct interest in the Xu family, became natural allies of the Xu family, exchanging ideas directly and regularly. The martial arts ceremony was held to promote the connection and friendship between the younger generations of both sides.

These three factions outside the lake are the Illusionary Dream Pavilion, the Blazing Sun Sect, and the Netherworld Gate.

Just as Xu Changjun arrived, the martial arts ceremony was reaching its climax, and deafening cheers erupted from the audience.

"The Xu family's martial arts competition this year was far too intense. With only one win and two losses, they barely managed to salvage some face!"

"Who says otherwise? I thought we'd at least win a couple of matches, but we lost them all. It's really embarrassing!"

"I never imagined that while the Xu family is so prosperous, the younger generation would be so incompetent!"

A chorus of voices rose and fell like waves of heat. Not far away, Xu Yuanqing lay on the ground, his face filled with resentment and unwillingness.

As one of the three prodigies of the new generation of the Xu family, he never expected to be defeated so cleanly.

The opponent is too strong?! Where did they get such top-tier spiritual root aptitude?!

He was defeated without much resistance, and lost face big time.

However, just as he looked up, he saw a figure walking towards him.

Mistaking him for one of his servants, Xu Yuanqing angrily shouted, "Who let you come here? Get back here!"

"Go back?!"

Xu Changjun sneered, grabbed at the void with his right hand, and a burst of energy erupted.

Instantly, Xu Yuanqing, who was lying on the ground, felt a powerful force rushing towards him, and the surrounding spiritual energy suddenly became unusually active.

Then, as if an invisible force was pressing in on him from all directions, an invisible giant hand grabbed his neck and lifted him up.

In an instant, a terrifying force gripped his fate by the throat, suffocating him. He was suspended in mid-air, unable to exert any strength, and all his magical power was suppressed. Like a dying fish struggling, he couldn't help but tremble, and his legs kicked wildly.

In an instant, Xu Changjun appeared in front of him, staring coldly at him, at Xu Yuanqing, his face filled with intense killing intent, and said coldly.

"You dog, you dare to share my bloodline? Was it you, you piece of trash, who ordered Uncle Fu locked up in the dark dungeon?!"

After his parents passed away, Uncle Fu took care of him for ten years. Although his cultivation level was not high and he was just an old servant, he was Xu Changjun's bottom line.

He is a man who always seeks revenge and never holds a grudge. Anyone who dares to cross him will suffer a cruel lesson.

Xu Kunpeng was ignorant back then and tried to attack Uncle Fu, which resulted in him being seriously injured.

Now, Xu Yuanqing has come looking for death again, and has even imprisoned Fu Bo in a dark dungeon, where he never sees the light of day. Although Xu Changjun is furious, he is mostly indifferent.

Having reached the advanced stage of Foundation Establishment and possessing the Nine-Headed Serpent Demon Diagram, a seed of supernatural powers and spells, Xu Changjun was no longer particularly wary or afraid of the Xu family's higher-ups.

Ultimately, he wasn't a true member of the Xu family; he had possessed their body. If he accepted this bloodline, the Xu family would become his right-hand man; if not, then he didn't need the Xu family.

He appears furious now, but in reality, he is just using this outburst to test the Xu family's attitude and see if the Xu family of Yundong Lake is worth his investment.

"Let go, let go! Help..."

Xu Yuanqing felt an invisible hand gripping his neck, as hard as a pair of pliers. Terrifying pressure from all directions was squeezing his body and suppressing his magical power. At this moment, this dignified high-level Qi Refining cultivator was worse than an ordinary person.

The intense feeling of suffocation made him struggle desperately, his hands pounding against the invisible binding force. Xu Changjun stood in front of him, but he seemed like a huge black shadow that covered the sky and earth. Although they were only a few feet apart, it was as if there was an insurmountable chasm between them.

His struggles were to no avail, so he shouted at the top of his lungs.

In that instant, he truly felt the fear of death emanating from Xu Changjun.
