Chapter 168 - Four Great Ancestors (1/2)
Chapter 168 Four Great Ancestors
Liang Jiaye, his brother, his son, and the other people were dumbfounded. They felt as if their brain had turned to mush.
What did they see?
A little Yin Grade martial artist actually destroyed a Supreme Great Ancestor’s weapon. Although the great ancestor had casually picked a weapon, based on his cultivation base, he could not be opposed by a Yin Grade martial artist even if he used a rice straw.
However, the spectators’ understanding was changed today.
What did it mean when a Yin Grade martial artist could resist a Supreme Great Ancestor?
When the martial artist grew up, how appalling would he become?
The thought of it made Liang Jinye and the other people feel like they had fallen into a 10,000-year-old ice house, causing them to s.h.i.+ver.
Tributary Chen lowered his head to look at the powder around him, and he no longer intended to make another move.
Being a Supreme Great Ancestor, he was already bullying the weak when he went all out earlier. If the great ancestor continued to oppress the young fellow again, it would mean that he was ignoring his ident.i.ty and would be sneered at.
Nonetheless, instead of feeling furious, Tributary Chen was somewhat glad.
Ou Yangming inhaled deeply and placed his spear vertically as he cupped his fist. “Senior, your weapon was too poor. If that wasn’t the case, I couldn’t have resisted it.”
It was true that he noticed the weak points in the spear and utilized leveraged force, but he dared not be confident about blocking the spear of a Supreme Great Ancestor, who had also fathomed the integration of Heaven and man, through the continuous attacks.
Tributary Chen waved his hand as he was rather moved. He asked, “I suppose you’re done watching from the side?”
“Heh, Chen Dishou, being the imperial family’s tributary and the Chen family’s great ancestor, you actually bullied a Yin Grade junior. Won’t you feel embarra.s.sed if word gets out?”
“Brother Ni, since you can’t stand it anymore, fight on his behalf and prove that Changlong County has talents too!”
Two people slowly walked out from two different directions. The moment Wu Guotu saw them, he sighed a breath of relief.
‘Since they’ve come, tonight’s matter has been completely solved.’
Chen Dishou expressed after he glanced at them, “Ni Xuetian, Fang Zhaoyang, you actually came together, what a surprise.”
Ni Xuetian and Fang Zhaoyang smiled plainly, but they did not stop. They arrived beside Ou Yangming in a while.
“Lil’ Ou, he’s the famous master from the Chen family in the capital. He showed you mercy by not killing you when you exchanged blows earlier, so aren’t you going to thank him?”
Fang Zhaoyang nodded and said, “A young man should respect an elder. Don’t be shy.”
Wu Guotu, Liang Jinye, and the rest widened their eyes. Those who recognized the two elders were dubious if they heard them wrong.
Instead of ordering or reproaching Ou Yangming, the two elders sounded like seniors who were conversing about their daily lives with their grandson.
Judging from the elders’ status, very few people—even in their own clan-were qualified enough to be spoken to that way by them. Nevertheless, the elders displayed that att.i.tude when they talked to Ou Yangming, a small Yin Grade martial artist.
Liang Jinye’s mouth twitched, and he was starting to feel more dispirited. Ou Yangming did not defy their instructions, so he bowed respectfully and said, “Thank you for having mercy on me, senior.”
Chen Dishou slowly nodded and asked, “Who taught you your spear technique?”
“It was the West Camp’s commanding general,” Ou Yangming answered after hesitating
“Oh, the Immense Forest West Camp.” Chen Dishou finally looked more at ease. “Your spear technique is great, and you’ve acquired its essence, but if you don’t progress on the path of spear cultivation, you’ll regress, so you mustn’t slack.”
“Yes,” Ou Yangming responded and thought, ‘Looks like Tributary Chen and General Chen Yifan have a close relations.h.i.+p, and they might even be from the same clan…!
Chen Dishou asked after some thought, “Did he tell you anything when he taught you the spear technique?”
Ou Yangming was stunned. “No!”
“No? How did he teach you the spear technique then?”
Ou Yangming pondered and answered honestly, “The general performed it once in front of me and asked if I understood what I watched.”
“Oh, what did you say?” “I understood it.”
Chen Dishou looked doubtful as he asked, “Did he only perform it once?”
“Yes.”
Ni Xuetian and Fang Zhaoyang exchanged glances and laughed out loud. “Brother Chen, I can’t believe that your clan’s Suicidal Spear can be learned by having it performed once!”
Chen Dishou’s face slowly darkened. He remarked, “The two of you can try to learn it too.”
“Thank you for your kindness, Brother Chen, but the Ni family has too many unique skills that were pa.s.sed down to us, so I’ll politely refuse your offer.” Ni Xuetian laughed.
“Young fella, answer me honestly. Is it true that Yifan only taught you the spear technique once?” Chen Dishou questioned with fierce eyes.
Ou Yangming answered with a deep voice, “I won’t go so far as to lie to you about this, senior.”
