At this moment, the three members of the Zhou Family brought over by an irresistible force wore expressions of terror.
Originally, they were hiding well in a secluded part of the mountains, waiting for news from this side.
Yet just now, a force they couldn’t resist took control of them in an instant, and the Zhou Family Ancestor watched helplessly...
A Martial Arts Grandmaster, a renowned figure in the Northern Territory, completely lost control of his own body!
It’s bizarre!
As for the two Zhou family members only in the Innate Realm, it was as if they’d seen a ghost—why did such a strange event occur in broad daylight?!
"I was traveling here with two clan members and suddenly encountered an unusual incident. We are quite puzzled," the Zhou Family Ancestor quickly regained composure and said, remaining calm despite the crisis.
Though angry and shocked inside, he suspected someone was secretly causing trouble. However...
Whoever it was clearly possessed strength beyond his own.
However, perhaps not by much, hence doing something to humiliate them like this.
As long as they stick to the story of just wandering here, the Wuxiang Sect, lacking evidence, can’t do anything to them.
Indeed, upon hearing these words, the Sect Leader of the Wuxiang Sect clearly didn’t believe it, but for a moment, couldn’t think of an appropriate solution.
After all, the Zhou Family Ancestor’s strength surpassed that of the two Sect ancestors.
Their Wuxiang Sect’s foundation was ultimately too shallow.
Seeing the Sect Leader of the Wuxiang Sect show a hint of hesitation, the Zhou Family Ancestor began to relax, his elderly face becoming cold again.
What’s the harm of traveling with his clan in the Northern Territory? Being near Wuxiang Mountain at this moment is completely coincidental.
The Sect Leader struggles because the Zhou Family Ancestor knows he’s intimidated by his strength.
But just then, as the Sect Leader of the Wuxiang Sect was considering what to do...
Three subtle, faint whistling sounds, undetectable even to a Martial Arts Grandmaster, arrived in an instant!
The three members of the Zhou Family barely had time to react before their Dantian positions were pierced directly!
"Ah?!!"
Their continuous screams resounded as the Zhou Family Ancestor’s fury burned. His centuries of cultivation vanished with a single blow!
The other two screamed incessantly, especially Zhou Lan, who previously wanted to make Jiang Lingyue his own, screamed most miserably now.
Being born in the Grandmaster Zhou Family, how could he have suffered such agony?
Now in severe pain, Zhou Lan’s face contorted into a distorted shape.
"Ancestor, I’m in so much pain... Ah!"
Hearing this pitiful scream from his once-friendly great-grandson, the Zhou Family Ancestor felt only annoyance.
Who doesn’t feel pain?!
Having the Dantian destroyed for no reason, any normal person would feel pain!
Beside them, the sect leadership who rushed over at Jiang Lingyue’s call were also stunned.
"What... What is happening?!"
Out of nowhere, including the Zhou Family Ancestor, a Martial Arts Grandmaster Fifth Layer, and two Innate Realm members... their Dantian was destroyed in an instant?!!
The problem is, they hadn’t noticed anything at all before.
Does that mean this attack, aimed at them, could easily achieve the same result?
At this moment, the Wuxiang Sect leadership felt a chill spread from their Dantian location.
"Who on earth is repeatedly teasing us, now even committing such brutal acts?!"
The Zhou Family Ancestor’s eyes were bloodshot as he glared around: "If you’re so capable, yet do such harm against innocent people, why hide in the shadows?"
With his Dantian destroyed, unless he finds the rumored Spirit Medicine for restoration, he won’t be able to cultivate again in his lifetime.
Therefore, the Zhou Family Ancestor was determined to disgrace the hidden attacker!
The Wuxiang Sect Leader and others now looked a bit strange.
They vaguely sensed that this person was helping their Wuxiang Sect...
Otherwise, the Sect Leader of Wuxiang had no idea how to deal with the Zhou Family Ancestor without concrete evidence.
As for Jiang Lingyue, she quietly observed the scene in front of her, initially surprised.
Then seeing the renowned Zhou Family Ancestor in the Northern Territory, instantly fall from a Grandmaster Fifth Layer to a cripple...
She immediately felt a strange sensation arise.
The Wuxiang Sect Leader and others thought this hidden person was assisting them.
But Jiang Lingyue felt... it seemed like someone was avenging her.
Right after the Zhou Family Ancestor spoke, a Memory Stone suddenly fell from the void.
Alongside, a Sound Recording Jade also descended.
These items were well recognized by everyone.
The Wuxiang Sect Leader’s heart tightened, instinctively sensing there might be some content inside!
The Zhou Family Ancestor’s heart skipped a beat.
Holding both items, the Sect Leader of the Wuxiang Sect opened the Memory Stone first.
The images inside started to reveal.
Then he activated the Sound Recording Jade...
Moments later, the Wuxiang Sect group found the two items were synchronized between sound and image!
From the initial, detailed planning of the Zhou Family Ancestor in the mountain town, to the pursuit by the Wuxiang Sect’s Zhou-named Tier Two Alchemist, everything was vividly clear!
By this point, substantial evidence was fully sufficient.
The complexions of the Wuxiang Sect leaders began to turn a deathly pale.
It was actually true they plotted to undermine the future of their Wuxiang Sect!
The Zhou Family Ancestor, seeing these items, felt his heart turn completely cold.
They never imagined all their previous plans were completely under observation by their opponent!
Even being left with evidence, they hadn’t noticed at all.
At this moment, within Jiang Lingyue, that faint sense of strangeness intensified.
The one secretly doing all this for the Wuxiang Sect was undoubtedly a commendable benefactor.
Effectively brought evidence right to them, in a thorough manner.
However... in this world, where does one find such unexplained kindness?
"Do I know this person in the shadows?"
This thought crossed her mind, and Jiang Lingyue already intended to observe the surroundings.
However, apart from some Wuxiang Sect disciples who shrank their necks in fear of the powerful presence and decided to leave quickly, there was nothing noteworthy around.
"Well, very good! Fellow Daoist Zhou, do you have anything left to plead? Didn’t expect your Zhou Family Ancestor, so long famous in the Northern Territory, to be such a person in the background!"
After watching the entire sequence captured in the Memory Stone, the tone of the Sect Leader of the Wuxiang Sect became chillingly severe.
Of course, eight-tenths stemmed from genuine anger over Zhou’s attempt to undermine the foundation of the Wuxiang Sect.
Yet there was some newfound confidence due to the fact that the Zhou Family Ancestor had been rendered powerless by an unknown benefactor...
