Chapter 232 (2/2)

”Zhu Feng?” Zhou Yuan's eyes narrowed slightly. It seemed that the two brothers had finally reached their limits.

He knew that it was impossible for Zhu Yue to silently sit by when Zhou Yuan had ‘snatched’ Gu Hongyi away.

”Is Zhu Yue amongst them?” Asked Zhou Yuan.

If Zhu Yue was coming too, Zhou Yuan would have to go bring Tuntun over. After all, a good man would not purposely suffer for no reason. No matter how arrogant he was , he would not directly face an inner mountain disciple like Zhu Yue when he was only at the first layer Alpha-Origin stage.

”Nope.” Shen Wanjin shook his head.

Zhou Yuan let out a carefree laugh. If Zhu Yue's wasn't coming, a mere Zhu Feng would not be able to cause any trouble.

Shen Wanjin only grew even more worried at the sight of Zhou Yuan's carefree appearance. Though Zhu Feng was not part of the newly crowned ten great outer mountain disciples, he was still above average amongst the first class disciples, his strength far surpassing Han Shan's.

While they conversed, the sound of rushing wind had already approached the entrance to the mountain. Zhou Yuan soon saw a dozen figures fly over, landing a short distance from the creak.

The one leading the group was naturally Zhu Feng.

Zhu Feng stared at Zhou Yuan with hostility as he frostily said, ”Zhou Yuan, I do not know what kind of honeyed words you used to scam junior sister Gu Hongyi, but I advise you to stop with your tricks, because you will not be able to bear the responsibility of affecting her training!”

Gu Hongyi's pretty face immediately turned ice-cold as she angrily said, ”Zhu Feng, what does where I train have to do with you? You’d better get lost!”

Her bright eyes icily looked towards Zhu Feng and gang, causing them to stumble slightly in response.

However, Zhu Feng was not scared off by this, summoning his courage as he said, “Junior sister Hongyi, we’re doing this for your sake. You should not listen to this guy’s flowery words.”

Gu Hongyi's anger turned to laughter. ”Flowery words? Do you fools know what level I've reached while practicing the Ethereal Form technique with him?”

”I've already unblocked 25 apertures. If I were to continue under Zhu Yue instead, I don't think I'll even reach 15, right?!”

Zhu Feng's expression changed slightly, while the other disciples looked towards Gu Hongyi in disbelief as they involuntarily cried out, ”25? How can that be?!”

However, they knew that someone like Gu Hongyi would never lower herself to lie to them.

Could Zhou Yuan really be so capable?

Zhu Feng's expression fluctuated indeterminately. Soon after, he looked towards Zhou Yuan in contempt and said, ”All of us know how talented junior sister Hongyi is, so it's not surprising for her to accomplish this in a few days.”

”But I'm afraid you don't have the qualifications to take credit for her success.”

His words were clear insinuating that Gu Hongyi's amazing talent was the only reason for her accomplishments, and had nothing to do with Zhou Yuan. Gu Hongyi's earlier words were merely her trying to defend him.

The others inwardly nodded upon hearing this, finding this the more acceptable explanation.

After all, they would rather believe in Gu Hongyi's astonishing talent than a mere first layer Alpha-Origin having such capability…

Gu Hongyi was so frustrated that she no longer knew what to say. The brains of these people were too good at coming up with bullshit.

Just as she was about to begin scolding again, Zhou Yuan stopped her with an outreached hand.

Zhou Yuan helplessly said, ”It is useless for you to reason with them.”

Gu Hongyi glared at Zhou Yuan. Why would she bother if not for him.

”When you encounter such people, there's no need to talk too much…”

Zhou Yuan grinned at Gu Hongyi as something seemed to slowly climb up in his eyes. ”Didn't you say something about me earlier? I recall you saying I'm like an old man, right?”

”It’s just drive, I do have some too…”

His gaze turned towards Zhu Feng and the rest, his grin widening with a hint of blade like iciness.

”Aren't you guys here to stir up trouble…”

”Come then, you guys are just a bunch of trash anyways. Shall I take on all of you alone, or do you guys want to come at me together…”

”I leave the choice to you.”

At the final word, Zhou Yuan's expression turned completely cold as ice, berserk Genesis Qi abruptly erupting from his body like a storm.

Behind him, a strange splendour appeared in Gu Hongyi's eyes as she gazed at the now overbearing young man who gave off an incomparably pressuring aura.

It was as if the current Zhou Yuan and the gentle young man who usually taught her were two completely different people.
