Chapter 1328
Zhou Liang
At the heart of the nine peaks, the five figures who were originally seated on the tall platform in the middle opened their eyes one after another. When they saw Zhuowen, who was holding hands with Mu Chenxue, their eyes immediately revealed a surprised expression.
Mu Chenxue was considered an influential figure at the heart of the nine peaks. She had defeated the five of them the moment she entered and became a core disciple of Sky Capital Peak. Recently, she had even been accepted as a direct disciple by old man Tiandu.
It could be said that Mu Chenxue had been in the limelight recently. There were only a handful of people in the inner academy who did not recognize Mu Chenxue.
"Who is this person?"
On the platform, a young man with a dark and cold expression slowly stood up. His eyes were cold as he stared at Zhuowen and asked in a deep voice.
"I remember this person. He seems to be the leader of the group who snatched the territory of Dao Hen's group. Zhou Liang, do you want to give it a try?
Although I know that you like Mu Chenxue, she is now a direct disciple of Sky Capital Peak. She is not someone you are worthy of. "
On the other side of the platform, a lady with short hair and a dry face laughed delicately. She stared at the young man with a mocking expression.
"Ni Yu, this has nothing to do with you.
I will definitely become a core disciple. It is only a matter of time.
Even if I am not worthy of Mu Chenxue, is that fellow who just entered the inner academy worthy of her?
That fellow's aura is only at the second level of the Emperor realm. He actually dares to hold Mu Chenxue's hand. He is simply ignorant and fearless. "
Zhou Liang snorted coldly. He took a step forward and rushed towards Zhuowen and Mu Chenxue.
Ni Yu's beautiful eyes flickered. She looked past Zhou Liang's back and landed on Zhuowen, who was holding Mu Chenxue's right hand.
Ni Yu's thoughts were much more meticulous than Zhou Liang's and she naturally noticed the bashful expression on Mu Chenxue's face. It was obvious that Mu Chenxue did not resist Zhuowen's tugging. This scene caused Ni Yu's eyebrows to furrow slightly.
She naturally knew Mu Chenxue's style of doing things very well. She was an extremely cold and arrogant woman. Her entire body exuded a cold aura. It was very difficult for ordinary people to get close to her.
Even though there was no lack of suitors in the inner court because of Mu Chenxue's beauty and bearing, most of these suitors didn't dare approach her. Because if they dared to approach Mu Chenxue, then most of them would have their tendons and bones torn apart, and their fates were rather miserable.
"Who is this guy?
Why does Mu Chenxue seem to treat him so differently? "
Ni Yu's eyes quickly landed on Zhuowen. However, when she looked at him, she realized that his cultivation level and aura weren't strong. He was only a second-level Martial Emperor.
This level of cultivation was not even comparable to Zhou Liang. Could it be that Mu Chenxue liked this kind of guy?
Swoosh!
When Zhuowen pulled Mu Chenxue and was about to reach the White Jade Pavilion, the sound of something breaking through the air suddenly swept past them. Immediately after, an extremely loud and piercing sound rang in Zhuowen's ears.
Zhuowen's eyes turned cold. His right foot moved, his waist twisted, and his right palm formed a fist. He suddenly punched out, bringing with him a terrifying gale that whistled behind him.
At this moment, Zhou Liang was just a few meters behind Zhuowen. He didn't expect Zhuowen's reaction to be so fast. He didn't even look behind him and directly attacked.
However, he wasn't afraid. With a cold snort, he also punched out. Soon after, the two fists collided, and a dull sound of thunder erupted.
Crack!
A clear bone cracking sound resounded. Immediately, the pupils of Zhou Liang, who was originally attacking from behind, shrunk to the extreme. He only felt an extremely intense pain being transmitted from his right hand. The bone cracking sound from earlier had been transmitted from his right arm.
"Why does this guy have such a terrifying strength?" Zhou Liang's pupils shrank to the size of needles. He took a step in the air and hurriedly retreated.
At this moment, Zhuowen's eyes were extremely cold. Although he didn't know this Zhou Liang, he had seen him before. He was one of the five strongest people at the bottom of the nine peaks. Previously, he had been training on the central platform at the bottom of the nine peaks.
Zhuowen didn't have any interaction with this guy before. Now that Zhou Liang attacked him for no reason, even if Zhuowen's temper was good, he still felt a little angry in his heart.
When Zhou Liang was about to retreat, Zhuowen's right hand clasped Zhou Liang's other hand. After which, Zhou Liang suddenly stopped retreating and was violently thrown to the ground by Zhuowen.
Rumble!
A dull thud rang out and dust filled the air. Zhou Liang crashed to the ground with his head facing upwards. Traces of cracks appeared on the ground where his back touched, densely packed like a spider web. Zhou Liang spat out a mouthful of blood and his eyes were filled with shock and anger.
Judging from this guy's aura, he was only at the second level of the Martial Emperor realm. How could his strength be so terrifying? He couldn't even withstand a single blow from this guy. Now, he was thrown to the ground like a little chick.
"Cough cough cough!"
Zhou Liang coughed. Just as he was about to get up, a foot suddenly stepped on his chest. He saw Zhuowen looking down at him coldly and said indifferently, "Did I offend you before?
Why did you attack me behind my back? "
At this moment, the surroundings became quiet. The exchange between Zhuowen and Zhou Liang was too fast. Just a moment ago, Zhou Liang was still behind Zhuowen. In the next moment, Zhou Liang was ruthlessly stepped on by Zhuowen. The process was a little too fast.
"Zhou Liang has been taken care of so easily?"
Ni Yu, who had been paying attention to the scene, trembled. Her beautiful eyes widened as she looked at the scene in disbelief. Zhou Liang was one of the top five official disciples. Yet, he had been taken care of so easily. This showed how terrifying the young man who was with Mu Chenxue was.
"Zhou Liang?"
Mu Chenxue, who was standing beside Zhuowen, frowned slightly. She stared at the young man under Zhuowen's feet and said in a cold voice.
"Chen Xue, you know him?" Zhuowen asked in surprise.
Mu Chenxue nodded and said, "When I first entered the Inner Courtyard's Nine Peaks, he had pestered me before. However, I ignored him."
Hearing those words, Zhuo Wen came to know that Zhou Liang was once one of Mu Chenxue's pursuers. When he saw that Zhuo Wen and Mu Chenxue were walking together, he directly attacked Zhuo Wen.
"Who are you?" Zhou Liang was tough. He endured the pain and stared at Zhuowen.
Zhuowen did not bother to pay attention to him. He pulled Mu Chenxue and entered the White Jade Loft.
"He's so strong. When this man defeated Dao Hen, I thought he was at most a Second Heaven Emperor. Now, even Zhou Liang has been defeated by him. This man is unfathomable. I'm afraid he's more than qualified to become a core disciple of the Nine Peaks."
Many warriors in the surroundings were discussing animatedly. They looked at Zhuowen's figure with fear as he entered the White Jade Loft.
Zhou Liang struggled to get up. His face turned green and red. In the end, he left the place dejectedly.
The White Jade Loft was quite large. There were more than ten rooms inside. There was an open-air courtyard in the middle of the loft. There were white jade tables and stone benches in the courtyard. There were all kinds of green plants around. The environment was very elegant.
At this moment, there was a group of people sitting in the courtyard. They were Moyan Wushang, Qing Yin, Jia Nan, Gatha, and Mo Lingtian.
Zhuowen and Mu Chenxue's arrival naturally attracted the five people's attention.
"Brother Zhuo, you're finally back."
Jia Nan smiled heartlessly. He took a step forward and came in front of Zhuowen.
Looking at Jia Nan, Zhuowen's eyes revealed a strange look. He realized that Jia Nan's aura had become much stronger. There were also traces of Emperor's Might. He had broken through to the Emperor Realm.
"Jia Nan, you've broken through?" Zhuowen asked.
Jia Nan grinned when he heard Zhuowen's question. His eyes were filled with pride. He said, "Hehe, Brother Zhuo, you're really sharp. You saw it with a single glance."
"You purposely released your aura. Who couldn't tell?"
Jia Sha slowly walked over and curled her lips. Hearing that, Jia Nan scratched his head and gave a simple and honest smile.
"Brother Ling Tian has also broken through to the Emperor Realm. He broke through when you left the inner court for the Great Desolate Forest," Jia Nan said with a smile.
Zhuowen nodded. Jia Nan and Mo Lingtian were both peak Heavenly Venerables. In addition, they had absorbed the energy of the Heart of Emperor. It was only a matter of time before they broke through. Zhuowen was not too surprised by their breakthroughs.
Gatha looked at Mu Chenxue, who was beside Zhuowen. She asked in surprise, "Brother Zhuo, this is?"
This was because she discovered that Zhuowen was holding the girl's hand. Their actions were rather intimate. Moreover, when Gatha's attention fell on Mu Chenxue's face, a trace of absent-mindedness appeared in her eyes.
The girl in front of her was extremely beautiful. She was like a fairy. Whether it was her temperament or appearance, it was the first time Gatha had seen someone like her. Although she was also a girl, she was stunned and felt a little ashamed.
"Sister Chen Xue!"
Suddenly, Moyan Wushang appeared in front of Jia Nan and Gatha. His beautiful eyes stared at Mu Chenxue, who was beside Zhuowen. His face was filled with excitement.
Jia Nan and Gatha quietly took a step back. They looked at each other and suddenly understood. Zhuowen had gone to the Great Desolate Forest for the girl called Mu Chenxue.
As Jia Nan and Gatha had entered the outer court with Zhuowen, they had not seen Mu Chenxue before. They had only heard from Moyan Wushang that Mu Chenxue was Zhuowen's lover. The main reason why Zhuowen wanted to enter the inner court was because of Mu Chenxue.
"Hehe!
So it's sister-in-law. You're really beautiful. Brother Zhuo has good taste. "
Jia Nan's thoughts were pure. She spoke directly. At this moment, she did not hide her words.
Hearing this, Mu Chenxue, who was nestled beside Zhuowen, blushed like a ripe red apple. Although she knew about her relationship with Zhuowen, Moyan Wushang and some of Zhuowen's friends definitely knew.
However, now that Jia Nan had called her sister-in-law, she could not help but feel a little shy.
"Chen Xue, you're really amazing.
You've entered the inner court for less than a year and you've become a direct disciple of Sky Capital Peak. "Qingyin also came to Moyan Wushang's side and smiled at Mu Chenxue.
"Qingyin, long time no see!
I was just lucky to become a direct disciple. "Mu Chenxue said with a gentle smile.
"Let's sit down and talk. Chen Xue, you haven't seen Wushang and Qingyin for a long time. Let's catch up."
Zhuo Wen was all smiles. Soon after, he pulled Mu Chen Xue to sit on the stone bench, while the others also took their seats. For a time, everyone began to chat in high spirits. There were no personal grudges or benefits mixed in. It was just a conversation between friends.
