The governor’s household, the Zhao family mansion.

“Big Brother, that Zhou Donghuang killed the two level-five adepts from the governing Wu family of Guangling prefecture… the first young master of the Wu family Wu Nanxun had his meridians destroyed and has become a martial invalid.”

After receiving the news of what occurred at the main entrance of the Magnolia Guild, Zhao San immediately went to find his older brother, the governor of Yunfeng prefecture and patriarch of the Zhao family, Zhao Lishang.

“I never imagined that even Wu Yunfeng and Wu Hailang would die at Zhou Donghuang’s hands… either one of those two would be a match for me.” Zhao Lishang spoke with a serious expression, and continued to question Zhao San, “How long did he take to kill the two of them?”

Zhao Lishang had sparred with both Wu Yunfeng and Wu Hailang and knew their strengths in detail.

“One… one exchange…”

Zhao San smiled bitterly.

Zhao Lishang was instantly dumbfounded when he heard this, and it took a long while to come to his senses with a bitter smile on his face. “I originally assumed his ability was equal to mine at most… now, it looks like I underestimated him.”

“Big Brother, I can’t understand… why didn’t he kill just those two from the Wu family and be done with it, instead of proceeding to main Wu Nanxun. Isn’t he afraid of the Wu family’s vengeance?”

Zhao San was puzzled by this.

“You are more familiar with him than I am… do you think he would do something he is not confident of?” Zhao Lishang countered.

“He…”

Zhao San hesitated momentarily as he considered it, then shook his head. “He wouldn’t.”

Although Zhao San had not spent a long time interacting with that youth, the immense self-confidence that radiated from that youth gave him a sense that he would not be frightened even if the sky collapsed.

“Because of this, there is only one possibility: He does not consider the Wu family a threat,” Zhao Lishang said with a complicated look.

“Does not consider the Wu family a threat?”

Zhao San was shocked.

The Wu family was a grand family and one that had many level-six adepts of Qi-gathering.

If that Zhou Donghuang did not consider even the Wu family a threat, how strong was his ability?”

The Hong family mansion.

“That Zhou Donghuang… has such courage?”

The second master of the preeminent Hong family, Hong Kun was in a state of shock for a good while upon receiving the news from outside and had just recovered his wits.

The strength of Zhou Donghuang’s ability had greatly surprised him.

However, he felt that Zhou Donghuang’s courage was even greater, to the extent that he dared to kill the people from the governing Wu family of Guangling prefecture and even maim the first young master of the Wu family, Wu Nanxun!

“I never imagined he had this level of ability.”

“With the ability he has demonstrated today, even the governor of Yunfeng prefecture Zhao Lishang is no match for him.”

“However, although the strength of his ability is indisputable, the same cannot be said of his brain… he even dares to maim First Young Master Wu Nanxun of the grand Wu family. He’s simply trying to get himself killed!”

Wu Nanxun was the designated future governor of Guangling prefecture, and because of this, outsiders referred to him as the young governor. And now, his meridians had been maimed in the prefecture capital of Yunfeng prefecture, and that made him a martial invalid.

Zhou Donghuang maimed the future governor of Guangling prefecture… it could be imagined how furious the governing Wu family of Guangling prefecture would be when news of this reached them.

“Seems that it won’t be necessary for Yun Fei and Dandan to seek the help of the disciples of the Valley of the Medicine Masters; that little fellow is doomed,” Hong Kun muttered with a glimmer in his eyes.

Not long ago, his older brother, the patriarch of the Hong family Hong Wei, had left the Hong family together with Chen Dandan and brought her out of Yunfeng prefecture to the Valley of the Medicine Masters.

He was aware of Chen Dandan’s life story as well as the conflict between her and Zhou Donghuang.

The Li family mansion.

“Today, with the patriarch and head lady, together with our son-in-law, and with the two level-five adepts with him, that Zhou Donghuang of the Magnolia Guild is doomed!”

This was the thought of all the members of the Li family before Patriarch Li Jingyu of the Li family, and the others set off. After all, the man of the head lady of the Li family was the young governor of the intermediate-level Guangling prefecture. Moreover, with the young governor were two level-five adepts who could match the governor of Yunfeng prefecture in ability.

It turned out that the members of the Li family were left dumbfounded when the news reached them.

“Patriarch is dead? Killed with one strike of Zhou Donghuang’s palm?”

“Head Lady is also dead? Moreover, Head Lady was killed by the son-in-law himself?”

“The two level-five adepts with son-in-law were also killed with a single sword stroke from Zhou Donghuang? And Zhou Donghuang even destroyed son-in-law’s meridians?”

The members of the Li family could never have imagined that the patriarch of the Li family not only failed in avenging the second young master of the Li family, Li Pingyun but had even died at Zhou Donghuang’s hands.

Their source of self-confidence, the two level-five adepts of the governing Wu family of Guangling prefecture, had also been killed by Zhou Donghuang.

“Will he take his anger out on our Li family? If he does, who in our Li family is a match for him? Who can stop him?”

Just when a crowd of Li family juniors was discussing the danger they were in, Li Yun and Li Rui had just arrived back at the Li family mansion.

When they heard that Patriarch Li Jingyu of the Li family had led a force to the Magnolia Guild to make trouble, both mother and daughter had escaped through the back door of the Magnolia Guild.

In order to avoid anyone noticing that they had been to the Magnolia Guild, they had specially made a big detour out of the prefecture capital and re-entered the prefecture capital from the opposite direction before returning to the Li family mansion.

But after going through all that trouble to return to the Li family mansion and hearing the members of the Li family exaggerating their danger, they were dumbfounded.

In their eyes, how could the mighty patriarch have been killed by Zhou Donghuang with a single blow?

Moreover, the strength behind the Li family, the young governor of Guangling prefecture, the first young master of the grand Wu family Wu Nanxun, had not only killed the head lady of the Li family but had even had his meridians destroyed by Zhou Donghuang?

The two level-five adepts of the governing Wu family of Guangling prefecture had also been killed by Zhou Donghuang?

“That child Donghuang… is that powerful?”

Li Yun was wide-eyed in shock.

Li Rui was also in a state of shock but soon regained her senses and smiled coldly. She said with an expression of glee, “If that Zhou Donghuang has offended the governing Wu family of Guangling prefecture… he is as good as dead!”

“The Wu family will definitely not let him off!”

“If I had known earlier that he was so stupid as to offend the grand Wu family, why would I have bowed and scraped before him?”

Saying this, Li Rui’s cold smile grew even colder.

In the spacious mansion of the preeminent Lu family, the news of what had occurred at the main entrance of the neighboring Magnolia Guild was being proclaimed everywhere.

The uproar even startled Lu Qinghu, who had been practicing intently in his room.

Lu Qinghu could not resist going out to find out what was happening.

However, he turned around and returned to his room very quickly.

“Young Master Donghuang killed two level-five adepts of the governing Wu family of Guangling prefecture? He maimed the first young master of the Wu family, Wu Nanxun?”

Shaking his head, Lu Qinghu was not surprised by this and continued to practice.

In his view, the fact that Young Master Donghuang dared to do this meant that he was surely confident and not afraid of that grand Wu family coming to make trouble for him.

What on earth was that potion that Young Master Donghuang instructed Fu to send over?

In just these two days, half of the effectiveness of that potion at most has been used, and I am already at the point where I can attempt to advance to level-five of Qi-gathering.

Two days earlier, Lu Qinghu had not thought much of it when Fu sent over that bottle of potion. But when he consumed that potion and began to practice, he noticed that his level of practice had increased dramatically, and in just two short days, he improved so much that it equaled his past ten years of hard practice.

I feel… I only need to let the rest of the potion take effect, and I will directly attain level-five of Qi-gathering!

With this thought, Lu Qinghu suppressed his burgeoning excitement with an effort, and immersed himself once more in practicing, closing himself off to the raucous noise outside.

Other than the four preeminent families of Yunfeng prefecture, the Fang and Ma lesser families had also been scared silly by Zhou Donghuang’s actions that day.

They never imagined that Zhou Donghuang would dare offend even the grand Wu family, the governing family of Guangling prefecture.

Just as the people of the prefecture capital were in a state of shock over what Zhou Donghuang had done, Zhou Donghuang himself was wandering leisurely through the streets of the prefecture capital, weaving through the crowds at a relaxed pace.

Without seeming to feel it… it has been three months since being reborn here.

Zhou Donghuang walked leisurely as he shook his head and sighed.

Previously, at this time, I was on Earth… the seal within my body had been broken not long ago, and I had not even attained level-one of Qi-gathering.

In just over three months, I have already attained level-five of Qi-gathering.

Previously, I took almost twenty years to attain level-five of Qi-gathering.

On the Earth, in an age without practice, qi was sparse, and for Zhou Donghuang to begin from nothing and practice till the level of petty consummation of Qi-gathering, took him fifty whole years.

This was also because he eventually traveled throughout Earth and noticed ancient traces. After some exploration, he had a fortuitous encounter.

After spending ten more years, he smoothly attained the stage of Connate stage.

After that, in the next few decades, he used the power of Earth’s science to travel to nearby planets where qi was denser to practice, and he smoothly attained the stage of Primal Core before he left Earth.

To physically travel across space, a minimum stage of Primal Core was required. Otherwise, one would never be able to withstand the force of the magnetic fields in space.

“In this life, I will strive to attain the level of Primal Core within five years!” Zhou Donghuang muttered.

If what Zhou Donghuang had just said was announced far and wide, it would have been enough to scare everyone not just on the planet of Ziyun, but in the myriad civilizations of the universe.

After sightseeing for a while more, Zhou Donghuang turned to return home.

In two days, I’ll travel to the Chu royal city… and Guangling prefecture happens to be on the road I must take to reach the Chu royal city. I’ll go with Wu Nanxun to the Wu family.

This will prevent the Wu family from making trouble for the Magnolia Guild while I’m traveling to the Chu royal city.
