C40 (2/2)

The trial had finally ended.

In the next moment, a gentle yet irresistible force sent the two of them out.

At the same time, on the plaza behind the Zhou Mansion's mountain, the crowd was already in an uproar. As the elders of the Zhou Clan looked in the direction of their clan, their eyes were filled with excitement.

After waiting for countless years, this day had finally arrived.

As for the young disciples of the Zhou Family, they didn't know much about the matter of the inheritance, so their excitement was purely because someone had finally completed the clan's trial.

Weng! *

Not long later, a sound of space shaking appeared in front of the open ground. The intense atmosphere of the open ground immediately became quiet upon hearing the sound. Everyone's gaze was immediately attracted over.

Under their agitated gazes, the figures of Cang Yun and Zhou Xian'er gradually appeared in front of the crowd.

In the next moment, Zhou Hao led the Zhou clan elders to the two of them.

”Father!”

”Uncle Zhou.”

Seeing this, Zhou Xian'er and Cang Yun bowed.

”The seventh manual, good!” Zhou Hao looked at Zhou Xian'er. After feeling the unstable aura of the latter's cultivation, his calm face revealed a hint of abnormal excitement. For such a young martial artist of the seventh layer, whether it was a father or a sector lord, Zhou Hao was very pleased.

”Nephew Cang Yun, thank you for your hard work.” After nodding to Zhou Xian'er, Zhou Hao shifted his gaze to Cang Yun, who was at the side. His expression turned solemn as he spoke in a heavy tone.

Regarding this, Cang Yun slightly smiled. He did not have the thought of doing a meritorious service. Instead, he respectfully replied, ”I only did what I should have done. The one who really worked hard was Xian'er.”

Hearing Cang Yun's words, for some unknown reason, Zhou Xian'er recalled the scene where the two of them embraced each other. Her face reddened slightly, and she hurriedly lowered her head, not daring to speak.

”Hmm?” Zhou Hao seemed to have noticed Zhou Xian'er's abnormality and raised an eyebrow. His gaze swept over the two people in front of him and then landed on Cang Yun, revealing a meaningful smile.

”Heh.” When he felt Zhou Hao's burning gaze, Cang Yun's back felt a little numb. After he gave a guilty smile, he lowered his head slightly and did not say anything else.

Seeing this, Zhou Hao withdrew his expression and said loudly: ”All Zhou clan elders, immediately return to the meeting hall to convene the family meeting.”

As the sound of his voice faded, Zhou Hao turned his gaze onto Cang Yun and Zhou Xian'er once again. ”All of you, follow me as well.”

After he finished speaking, Zhou Hao led the two of them towards the Zhou Mansion. The other clan elders followed closely behind him.

However, not long after he walked out, Cang Yun felt a hidden enmity staring at him from behind. He frowned and turned his head around, but did not discover anything.

”What's wrong?” Zhou Xian'er who was at the side saw the unusual reaction of Cang Yun and asked curiously.

”It's nothing. I just felt like someone was staring at me. Maybe I was mistaken.” Cang Yun searched for a while but still found nothing. He shook his head with a smile and explained.

”Heh, big brother Cang Yun is a famous person in our Zhou family right now, it's normal for people to pay attention to him.” Zhou Xian'er did not think too much into it, and said while laughing.

”Maybe.”

Cang Yun replied with a faint smile, but in his heart, he secretly remembered this matter.
