Chapter 1139
The main hall fell silent again as the Zeng Family's higher-ups looked at Chen Yu anxiously.
If Yang Xia was a disciple of Celestial Sect, then Chen Yu could very well be a disciple of Celestial Sect as well.
Just now, they almost attacked this Celestial Sect disciple.
If he had accidentally killed Chen Yu just now, the entire Zeng family would most likely be buried with him.
"Are you a disciple of Celestial Sect?"
The Family Head revealed a smile.
"Yes."
Chen Yu replied calmly.
All the higher-ups in the main hall took a deep breath and smiled apologetically.
Celestial Sect was one of the three major sects of the human race. Every disciple in the sect was a genius among geniuses with a bright future ahead of them.
To the Zeng Family, getting to know a disciple of Celestial Sect was something worth celebrating.
The green-clothed woman stood to the side, and when she saw the clan's upper echelons' attitude toward Chen Yu, she was completely stunned.
She was young and did not know the status of Celestial Sect or the identity of a disciple of Celestial Sect.
However, seeing the higher-ups in the family, she understood and could not help but look forward to Celestial Sect.
Chen Yu was not interested in the fawning of the higher-ups. He walked towards the lady in green and asked, "You must be Zeng Qing?"
Yang Xia was currently out on a mission. The mission he had entrusted to the sect was for Chen Yu to go to the Zeng family and look for a woman named "Zeng Qing."
"Qing Er, Sir is asking you a question. Why are you in a daze?"
An Elder shouted. He was Zeng Qing's father.
He was puzzled as to how Zeng Qing knew a disciple of Celestial Sect.
Zeng Qing came to her senses and said hurriedly, "Sir, the Cheng Family has captured many disciples. Please save them."
She was a little nervous. Chen Yu did not know what was going on. He only knew that she wanted him to save them.
The Family Head spoke and explained the situation of the Zeng Family.
The nearby Cheng Family was powerful and had already swallowed three smaller families. Now, they had extended their claws to the Zeng Family.
The Cheng Family did not use force to suppress them. They felt that the Zeng Family already knew their strength. Therefore, they captured a few young geniuses of the Zeng Family to force them to compromise.
Swallowing the Zeng Family with the smallest price would bring the greatest benefits.
"It seems that Yang Xia's friend was coincidentally captured by the Cheng Clan. That's why the Cheng Clan issued the mission."
Chen Yu sorted out his thoughts.
"Sir, where are you going?"
The head of the Zeng Family asked.
"Save them."
With that, Chen Yu left the Zeng Family.
The higher-ups heaved a sigh of relief.
"With the Celestial Sect's disciples taking action, there shouldn't be any problems right?"
"Not necessarily. The Cheng Clan is cunning. What if they don't admit that they captured our clan's disciple?"
If the Cheng Family didn't admit that they had kidnapped the girl, how could Chen Yu save her?
"Qing 'er, what is going on?"
The elder's father asked.
As for the arrival of the Celestial Sect disciples, none of them knew about it.
"It's like this. Big Brother Ceng Hua once gave me a Message Amulet. He said that if I were to encounter any danger in the future, I should use the Teleportation Amulet to ask for help …"
"Now that Big Brother Ceng Hua has been captured by the Cheng Clan, I used that Message Talisman."
Ceng Qing told him what had happened.
She and Ceng Hua were in a relationship.
A few decades ago, when Ceng Hua was out traveling, she saved a man named 'Yang Xia'. In return, Yang Xia owed Ceng Hua a favor.
Later on, Yang Xia entered the Celestial Sect. This was something Ceng Hua didn't expect.
"If that's the case, that Sir's mission might be to save Ceng Hua. He wouldn't care about the feud between the Cheng Clan and the Zeng Clan."
"Sigh, why didn't you two mention this earlier?"
The higher-ups sighed. Such a huge favor was wasted by Ceng Qing.
"I hope that the Celestial Sect disciple can negotiate with the Cheng Clan smoothly and save our clan's disciple. At the same time, he can intimidate the Cheng Clan and ensure the peace of the Zeng Clan."
…
Chen Yu asked around and found out the location of the Cheng Clan.
He didn't go to the Cheng Clan directly. Firstly, it would be troublesome. If the Cheng Clan didn't admit to it, Chen Yu would have a bad reputation if he barged in.
After putting on the Astral Concealment Robe, Chen Yu became completely invisible and entered the Cheng Clan easily.
After randomly grabbing a person to search his soul, Chen Yu found the Cheng Clan's dungeon.
Before entering the dungeon, he suddenly felt a strong Yin Blood Qi. He couldn't help but frown and followed the aura to investigate.
In a forbidden area covered by an enchantment, Chen Yu found a huge medicine cauldron with three alchemists sitting around it.
Inside the cauldron was boiling hot blood, but it emitted a strong Yin Blood Qi.
At a certain moment, one of the alchemists took out a skeleton from the medicine cauldron.
"Using a human to refine medicine?"
The Cheng Clan was really ruthless.
Chen Yu was just curious and didn't want to be a busybody. He then went to the dungeon.
The dungeon was heavily guarded, but Chen Yu went in and out as he pleased.
Soon, he found a group of young men and women wearing the Zeng Clan's uniform in a cell that was sealed by an array.
The young disciples of the Zeng Clan were all pale, panicking and in despair.
They knew that the Cheng Clan was too strong. Even if the Zeng Clan didn't compromise, the Cheng Clan would use forceful methods to conquer them. By then, they might not have a chance to live.
But suddenly …
A large hole appeared in the black-glazed gold prison cell. Immediately after, a hole also appeared in the formation barrier.
The Zeng Family stared at the scene in front of them, dumbfounded. Were they hallucinating?
"Could this be the Cheng Clan's plan? Letting us escape and then killing us?"
A young woman said.
At this moment, an unfamiliar voice came from the void in front of them, "I'm here to save you. Go!"
When the crowd heard this, they immediately stood up, all of them extremely excited.
"Don't worry. Just walk out. The Cheng Clan won't be able to see you," Chen Yu said.
He used the Space Ultimacy to hide the figures and auras of these people.
With Chen Yu's Level Five Space Ultimacy, even if he hid so many people at the same time, only a Four Star King would be able to detect them. But why would a Four Star King guard the dungeon?
"Is Zeng Hua here?"
Chen Yu asked.
In this mission, the target he was helping was Zeng Hua.
"I, I am!"
A slightly calm man said.
He guessed that Zeng Qing must have used the communication amulet to ask "Yang Xia" for help.
But from the voice, it didn't seem to be Yang Xia.
Then …
Under Chen Yu's lead, about twenty Zeng Clan disciples successfully escaped from the dungeon.
They couldn't believe it, wondering if they were dreaming.
It was only after they left the Cheng Clan that they believed it was true. They were saved by a mysterious person.
"Thank you for saving our lives, Sir."
Zeng Hua said gratefully.
At the same time, they were curious about the strength of this senior. He was actually able to make the few of them walk out of the Cheng Clan just like that. What kind of unimaginable means was this?
At this moment, the figure of his savior appeared.
It turned out to be a man younger than him.
…
In the Zeng Clan's meeting hall.
The higher-ups were still in the meeting hall.
After all, Chen Yu might not be able to save all the disciples. Even if he did, the Zeng Clan might not be safe.
"In about a day, the Celestial Sect disciple will be back. By then …"
Suddenly, there was a commotion outside.
"What's going on? What's with all this commotion! "
An elder of the clan stood up impatiently, ready to deal with the matter.
But just as he walked out of the hall, he was stunned on the spot.
He saw that Chen Yu had returned. Behind him, there were ten to twenty Zeng Clan disciples.
They were all back!
All the higher-ups walked out. When they saw the result, they were all shocked.
Everyone knew how powerful the Cheng Clan was.
It hadn't even been ten hours, and they were all back.
With the speed of a Star Condensation King, it would take at least 65 hours to rush from the Zeng Clan to the Cheng Clan.
In the end, 65 hours later, everyone was back.
Everyone was shocked. How did Chen Yu do it …
"The matter has been resolved. Goodbye."
Chen Yu said calmly.
This mission was simple indeed. Logically, it should have been done by the Celestial Sect disciples. But Chen Yu, who was ranked 0th on the Heavenly Martial List, snatched it away.
"Zeng Hua will never forget senior's life-saving grace. However, the clan is in danger, and I hope senior can lend us a hand."
Zeng Hua said gratefully and made a request.
"Zeng Hua, how can you speak to a lord like that?"
The higher-ups of the Zeng Clan scolded.
Zeng Hua was just an ordinary Star Condensation Initial Stage cultivator. What qualifications did he have to ask Chen Yu to do anything? The higher-ups were nervous, afraid that Zeng Hua's actions would make Chen Yu unhappy.
But in fact, the Zeng Clan hoped that Zeng Hua would do so.
"Lord, the Zeng Clan is grateful for what you have done today."
The Clan Head bowed and cupped his fists, "Lord, you have been busy the whole day. Why don't you rest here? We will prepare the banquet …"
Chen Yu looked at Zeng Hua and nodded.
When Yang Xia reported the mission, he helped Zeng Hua solve the problem. Since Zeng Hua made a request, he would help.
Seeing this, the higher-ups of the Zeng Clan smiled and immediately went to prepare.
As long as Chen Yu was willing to stay here, even if it was just for a day, they would be able to interact more with Chen Yu and befriend this Celestial Sect disciple.
After a while, the banquet began.
Chen Yu tasted the delicious food, enjoyed the dance and music, and immersed himself in the atmosphere.
Ever since returning to Celestial Sect, he had been cultivating in seclusion. Taking this opportunity to relax a little and strike a balance between work and rest was not a bad thing.
But at this moment.
"Bad news, bad news."
A panicked voice came, disrupting the music.
The faces of the higher-ups of the Zeng Clan turned gloomy. This was a critical moment. If there was anything, it could have waited until after the banquet.
An Elder glanced at Chen Yu, and seeing that he looked normal, he left the banquet.
"What? The Cheng Clan is attacking? "
In the next moment, Elder Zheng's shocked voice was heard by everyone in the Zeng Clan.
"The Cheng Clan is attacking."
"Oh no, what should we do!"
The Zeng Clan was in a mess. After all, the Cheng Clan was too strong, casting a shadow over their hearts.
"What are you panicking for?"
The Clan Head stood up and shouted, stabilizing the situation.
He then bowed and smiled apologetically, "My apologies for disturbing Lord."
