Tick... Tick... Tick...
Crimson blood slowly dripped from the corner of his mouth, the crisp sound echoing sharply in the silent square. Looking at the solitary figure standing proudly in the center of the square, accompanied by the howling Desolate Autumn Wind, a chill involuntarily crept into everyone's hearts.
Being ruthless to others is something most people can accept; however, being equally ruthless to oneself is truly rare!
"I am indeed not your match right now, but I will kill him, and you cannot stop me!" With lips as pale as snow and a face equally white, Sun Zhe's legs trembled uncontrollably, his whole body seemed on the verge of collapsing. He was indeed gravely injured. Yet, facing Zhou Yuanxin, Sun Zhe's eyes were filled with mocking cold laughter and a deeply hidden fury.
"You..." A flash of anger crossed Zhou Yuanxin's face, but after glancing at the lifeless Cai Yuanheng on the ground, he ultimately suppressed his anger and abandoned the idea of teaching Sun Zhe a lesson. Everything he had done was predicated on Cai Yuanheng agreeing to his demands; now that Cai Yuanheng was dead, all his actions had naturally lost their meaning.
Moreover, Sun Zhe was a disciple of Xuan Lei Sect. Even though he was merely an Outer Sect Disciple, he was still part of Xuan Lei Sect. No matter how bold Zhou Yuanxin was, he did not dare to truly harm him unless he had a compelling reason; otherwise, the elders in his family would never allow him to offend Xuan Lei Sect.
"Brother Sun," at some point, the two disciples of Xuan Lei Sect had come to support Sun Zhe's trembling body.
Sun Zhe looked up at them with indifference in his eyes and struggled to break free from their support, saying lightly, "There’s no need for you two to follow me anymore..."
Reaching the horse, after several attempts, Sun Zhe finally climbed onto its back. Looking at the crowd in the square who were still somewhat at a loss, Sun Zhe's eyes were filled with arrogant laughter. After years of grievances, he finally got his revenge—a feeling that ordinary people could not comprehend. Although he had made an enemy of Zhou Yuanxin and possibly offended the Zhou family, he did not regret it!
"Haha... How about Cai Yuanheng? How about the Zhang Family... And you, Zhou Yuanxin... Who can stop me from taking my revenge!" After a moment, Sun Zhe burst into wild laughter. Although there was still a trace of blood at the corner of his mouth, his arrogant demeanor remained incredibly defiant.
In front of hundreds of onlookers and amidst strong figures from the Zhou family, ruthlessly killing Cai Yuanheng—how audacious that was!
Suddenly...
Out of nowhere, a violent wind swept through the entire street, and a rustling sound echoed in everyone's ears. Only Sun Zhe's laughter resonated in the wind; his arrogant voice and emaciated figure left a deep impression in everyone's minds.
"Go!" He tugged on the reins without paying attention to anyone else and galloped toward Xuan Lei Sect with a long laugh. In the blink of an eye, that green figure vanished from everyone's sight.
After Sun Zhe left, the two disciples of Xuan Lei Sect exchanged glances and saw regret in each other's eyes. However, there was no room for redemption now; ultimately, they could only leave Zhang Manor behind.
Standing before Zhang Manor, Zhou Yuanxin's face was dark as if water could drip from it. Watching Sun Zhe leave, his eyes were filled with icy cold light.
"Lord Zhang, what do you think we should do about this matter? This Sun Zhe is brazenly killing my Zhang Manor's supervisor, clearly relying on his identity as a disciple of the Xuan Lei Sect, knowing that ordinary soldiers dare not confront him. I ask Lord Zhou to stand up for my Zhang Family." A gentle and enchanting voice rang in Zhou Yuanxin's ear; it was from the Yuan Clan, who had somehow arrived at Zhou Yuanxin's side. Her captivating eyes shimmered with faint tears, evoking a sense of pity.
"Hmph, this child is ungrateful, thinking that entering the Outer Sect of the Xuan Lei Sect allows him to act with impunity... This matter is far from over!" Zhou Yuanxin's eyes glinted coldly, a flash of killing intent fleetingly passing by as he replied calmly.
...
"Thud!"
In front of the Xuan Lei Sect, two gatekeeping disciples were chatting when suddenly a muffled sound startled them. They looked up to see a young man fall off his horse. After a moment, the horse did not leave, but the young man lay on the ground without any movement.
"What... what happened here..."
"Let's go check it out..."
"This seems to be our Outer Sect's Sun Zhe. I saw him during the grand ceremony a few days ago; he is a named disciple of Elder Li..." As they approached, one of them immediately recognized Sun Zhe, and the clothing he wore indeed indicated that he was a named disciple of Elder Lei. However, this subtle distinction was lost on outsiders.
"How could Brother Sun Zhe be so severely injured? Who would dare to harm someone from our Xuan Lei Sect..."
"Don't ask too much; let's get Brother Sun Zhe to Elder Li. He will handle everything; with his character, he won't ignore this..." Seeing Sun Zhe's injuries, one of them quickly said to his companion.
"Alright."
The two then carried the unconscious Sun Zhe into the Xuan Lei Sect.
...
Inside a guest room in the Xuan Lei Sect, a young man lay on the bed, his pale face devoid of color, only his black eyes seemed to flicker with mysterious hues. Not far from the bed stood a White-Haired Elder, hands clasped behind his back. This casual posture exuded an undeniable aura; these two were the already awakened Sun Zhe and his master, Elder Li.
"The general situation is as follows..." After a while, Sun Zhe recounted everything that had happened at Zhang Manor without holding back any details, even sharing the reasons for seeking revenge because he appreciated Elder Li's teachings and trusted his master.
"You want to seek revenge on Zhou Yuanxin?"
Elder Li turned his gaze out the window, his lips moving slightly as he began to speak.
"Yes!" Sun Zhe did not deny it. His principle had always been that if others did not offend him, he would not offend them; but if someone wronged him, he would retaliate! Since Zhou Yuanxin had relied on his superior cultivation to seriously injure him, why should he not seek revenge?
With a gentle sigh, Elder Li's eyes flickered slightly as he slowly turned to look at Sun Zhe and said,
"Now there are only seven or eight months left until the Sect's Inner Sect Competition. During this time, you should stay in the Sect and focus on your cultivation. As long as you can place in the top ten in this Inner Sect Competition, entering the Inner Sect should not be a problem. By then, I will pass on everything I have learned to you."
"Do not underestimate this Inner Sect Competition. It is not just the Outer Sect Disciples participating; this year's Inner Sect Disciples will also take part. They not only possess extraordinary talents but also have access to the rich resources of the Inner Sect for their cultivation. They are your true opponents. Of course, I have already prepared everything you need for your cultivation during this time. Your injuries are not too severe, so once you recover, you should enter seclusion..."
"Master... I..." Hearing Elder Li's arrangements, Sun Zhe became anxious.
Elder Li cast a calm glance at Sun Zhe, and in that moment, Sun Zhe felt as if he had been completely seen through. Suddenly, it was as if a bucket of cold water had been poured over him, and his earlier impulsiveness cooled instantly.
"Do you still not understand? This matter is settled!"
Sun Zhe was taken aback and immediately realized that even his master could not provoke the Zhou family!
