Sun Zhe's body flickered and disappeared before everyone's eyes in an instant. Not only did the nearby Enforcement Team's Cultivators fail to see it, but even Shen Yan and Zhou Houyao, who had reached the Realm of Thunder Sovereign, did not notice a thing, as if Sun Zhe had vanished into thin air without any prior warning.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
A series of muffled sounds erupted on the street. The five black-clad Cultivators surrounding Sun Zhe trembled simultaneously, each spitting out a mouthful of blood. Their bodies leaned forward, and all five fell straight to the ground. At that moment, Zhou Houyao was horrified to discover that there were actually nine identical Sun Zhes surrounding him, all of them coldly staring at him.
A cold sweat slowly trickled down his back!
"Ninefold Shadow... how could you have this Martial Arts... you... you actually mastered it to perfection..."
Zhou Houyao could not hide the shock in his eyes. The Ninefold Shadow was one of the top-tier movement Martial Arts treasured in the Xuan Lei Sect's library, and it was also a Martial Arts he was currently practicing. He never expected that Sun Zhe would also master this Martial Arts and reach such a high level.
Although entering this Martial Arts was not difficult, reaching mastery required certain innate talent, and achieving perfection was even more challenging. As far as he knew, very few people could master this Martial Arts to perfection; even an elder in the late Thunder Sovereign stage within the Xuan Lei Sect had only reached the eighth shadow after years of hard training.
"How could I have this Martial Arts? It seems you really don't know me. I assume you were never a disciple of the Xuan Lei Sect. Since you asked so, let me make it clear: I am the Sun Zhe from back then, the one who was hunted down by your Zhou family, by the Xuan Lei Sect, and by the Golden Thunder Sect!"
Sun Zhe!
Upon hearing this name, Zhou Houyao's expression changed drastically, his shock deepening. How could he not know Sun Zhe? Even Zhou Family Ancestor, his grandfather Zhou Qi, regarded him with great caution—a figure who had been expelled from the Xuan Lei Sect and was a prodigy in cultivation over the past century.
At this moment, Sun Zhe's smile gradually faded. He no longer emitted any aura of a Cultivator and walked towards Zhou Houyao at a very ordinary pace. His steps were slow, but each sound of his footfall clearly resonated in Zhou Houyao's heart, like heavy hammers striking against his chest.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Even without emitting any aura of a Cultivator, after entering the Realm of the Thunder Lord, Sun Zhe possessed his own Spirit Domain and momentum. Under his overwhelming pressure, Zhou Houyao found himself unable to withstand it and staggered backward four or five steps before stabilizing himself; his Mid-Level Thunder Sovereign cultivation offered no resistance whatsoever.
"Weren't you killed by someone from the Golden Thunder Sect...? How could you possibly appear here? You are definitely not Sun Zhe; it’s impossible!" The horror in Zhou Houyao's eyes intensified as he shouted loudly.
"Brother Sun, you should leave quickly. The current Xuan Lei Sect is no longer what it used to be; it has become a branch sect of the Golden Thunder Sect. Your appearance in Beifeng City will surely be reported to the Golden Thunder Sect immediately. With their methods, they will likely send powerful individuals soon. By then, even if you want to leave, it will be too late."
Walking up to Sun Zhe, without even glancing at Zhou Houyao, Shen Yan spoke to Sun Zhe with concern. Although she was very happy that Sun Zhe had returned, she did not want to see him surrounded again by the experts of the Golden Thunder Sect.
The scene from that year at the Xuanlei Sect Great Hall had remained deeply etched in her memory.
"Sun Zhe, I advise you to escape quickly; otherwise, even without the experts from the Golden Thunder Sect coming, if my grandfather comes, you won't be able to escape."
Looking at the elegantly dressed Sun Zhe, Zhou Houyao knew that this seemingly gentle young man was a cold-blooded devil. Many disciples of the Xuan Lei Sect had died at his hands back then. Fearing that his fate would be the same as his cousin Zhou Hanbin's, he immediately reacted with a show of bravado upon hearing Shen Yan's words.
He didn't care whether he could capture Sun Zhe; what he cared about was whether he could save his own life at Sun Zhe's hands. As for opposing Sun Zhe, the pressure he felt earlier had already made him understand the gap between them. Even though he had reached the Three-Star Thunder Sovereign realm, he was definitely no match for Sun Zhe.
"Golden Thunder Sect? No worries, they won't come..."
Sun Zhe smiled confidently and explained to the anxious Shen Yan.
Although Seven Swords True Monarch Zhuang Yuanhang was no longer by his side, he had once protected him in the past. Sun Zhe believed that the Golden Thunder Elder would not cause him trouble anymore, especially for Zhuang Yuanhang's sake. Or perhaps the Golden Thunder Elder simply did not regard him as a threat; capturing him back then was merely for the Thunder Giant Sword in his family's ancestral tomb to unlock the Evil Demon Sea's restrictions.
If Sun Zhe grew to a certain level, perhaps the Golden Thunder Elder would send someone to deal with him or even risk offending Zhuang Yuanhang by acting personally. However, Sun Zhe was currently just a Thunder Lord Stage Cultivator, someone who couldn't even compare to an Elder Steward of the Golden Thunder Sect. He posed no threat to them and naturally wouldn't attract their attention.
"Haha... Sun Zhe, it really is you! I didn't expect you to still be alive; you certainly haven't disappointed me!"
A loud and arrogant voice rang out from the other end of the street. A young man dressed in a Purple Robe rushed over and appeared before Sun Zhe and Shen Yan in an instant. With a face like carved jade and looks comparable to Pan An, Zhao Dasha's noble demeanor had only intensified over these past few years.
Zhao Ang seemed like a born nobleman; not only was his attire luxurious and extravagant, but his entire aura was also proud and fierce. His attitude towards people and matters was exceedingly arrogant; he showed no restraint against anyone he disapproved of. Thus, even though the entire Beifeng City was dominated by the Zhou family, he dared to stand up for Shen Yan and confront Zhou Houyao.
"You’re still alive; how could I possibly die first!"
Surprised that Zhao Ang had also arrived, Sun Zhe smiled slightly and retorted without hesitation. Although Zhao Ang's words remained true to form, Sun Zhe could sense his joy beneath them; it was just that he wasn't as shameless as Shen Yan.
When he first started, although he had some resentment towards Zhao Ang's cold mockery, he later realized that this was just Zhao Ang's character, and he no longer cared. Zhao Ang was one of Sun Zhe's few friends, and even back in the Xuanlei Sect Great Hall, he had boldly confronted Zhou Qi for Sun Zhe without any hesitation.
Years ago, the three major figures among the Outer Sect Disciples of the Xuan Lei Sect had gathered once again. The three Thunder Lord Level Cultivators from back then had all become Thunder Sovereigns or stronger now. Excluding Sun Zhe, Shen Yan had already reached the early stage of Thunder Sovereign, while Zhao Ang was on the verge of becoming a Mid-Level Thunder Sovereign. Given their ages, they could already be considered extraordinary.
The three exchanged glances and saw each other's joy; sometimes, one could understand another's feelings without words.
“Uh-oh, Zhou Houyao has run away!”
Shen Yan's expression changed as he suddenly thought of something and immediately called out to Sun Zhe.
However, Sun Zhe showed no signs of panic. Instead, he smiled slightly and turned to look in another direction down the street. His eyes narrowed slightly, and his deep gaze seemed to penetrate space, spotting the fleeing Zhou Houyao.
“Let him lead us to Zhou Qi; it would be troublesome for us to find him ourselves…”
As soon as he finished speaking, Sun Zhe stepped forward. With his cautious nature, how could he make such a mistake? The so-called lack of attention was merely giving Zhou Houyao a chance to escape. The real purpose was to have Zhou Houyao take him to find Zhou Qi; Zhou Qi was the person he truly wanted to locate.
Watching Sun Zhe walk ahead, Zhao Ang and Shen Yan exchanged glances and noticed a hint of surprise in each other's eyes. They seemed to increasingly find it hard to understand Sun Zhe.
