<b>Chapter 62 â Things Escalate</b>
At this moment, countless gazes were focused at the centre of Mount Xiangâs square. Their eyes were flickering slightly.
âHey, isnât that one of the Top Ten Outer Disciples, ranked 9th, Chu Yun? Why is he here to cause trouble again? â
âIsnât that Senior Sister Su Yu? Chu Yun seems to be one of her persistent pursuers, now that she has a man by her side, Iâm afraid he wonât be able to stand it, right? â
âBut isnât that man the Ye Clanâs trash; Five Great Clans of the Great Zhou Dynasty? Why would he appear in our Xingxiang Sect?â
âNot only has he appeared, but he also seems to own an Inner Discipleâs Spirit Value Token.â
âEven trash can become an Inner Disciple, then our Xingxiang Sect will be in decline!â
All sorts of whispers resounded in all directions. Clearly, quite a number of people had a high interest in the two parties who were about to confront each other.
Ye Zhong was not interested in the surrounding discussions. His indifferent gaze landed on Chu Yunâs slightly mocking face. After a while, he sighed and said, âFor the sake of Senior Sister Su Yuâs face, I wonât kill you today. Slap your own mouth a hundred times and scram.â
The faint voice echoed in the room, causing the surrounding disciples who were still discussing to be stunned, one by one. They looked at Ye Zhong with interest!
Did Ye Zhong not know that if he did not say this, there was still room for peace? With his personality, Chu Yun would definitely not let this matter go easily.
He was ranked ninth among the Top Ten Outer Disciples. He was no ordinary figure!
A wry smile appeared on Su Yuâs delicate face. After that, she extended her hand to support her forehead with an expression that said she couldnât bear to watch any longer.
Perhaps Su Yu was the only one among all the disciples of the Xingxiang Sect who understood that Ye Zhong was really giving her face by saying such words. If it wasnât for her, she doubted that even if Chu Yun wasnât a corpse, he would have already been crippled.
The smile on Chu Yunâs face froze at that moment. He looked at Ye Zhong with a twisted expression, and laughed coldly, âIt seems like the sun is rising from the west, the Ye Clanâs trash even dared to come and threaten me, since you donât know life or death, then I will send you on your way!â
As his voice faded, Chu Yun stomped his feet on the ground, his body pouncing towards Ye Zhong. On his palm, a silver arc of light flashed, and his palm was already aiming straight at Ye Zhongâs throat. At this moment, Chu Yunâs Murderous Aura was surging!
Ye Zhongâs expression was cold, but his eyes were laced with killing intent. Chu Yun had the strength of the Fourth Layer of Body Tempering. Originally, the two sides didnât have any grudges between them, so he was just to teach him a lesson. But this fellow actually wanted to kill him in their first encounter? If he didnât have some ability, wouldnât he have died here for no reason?
Thinking of this, Ye Zhong did not waste any time talking nonsense with him. Instead, he took a step back the moment Chu Yun pounced at him, dodging Chu Yunâs killing move by a hairâs breadth. With a flip of his hand, he casually pressed his fingers into the middle of Chu Yunâs back
It could be said that their confrontation lasted only a split second. Most of the onlookers were unable to clearly see what exactly had happened just now. Only a few of the more capable individuals had a shocked look in their eyes at this moment!
This Ye Zhong was too strong!
âLetâs head to the Spiritual Medicine Hall.â After making his move, Ye Zhong did not even have the mood to look back at Chu Yun. Instead, he spoke plainly and headed towards the Spiritual Medicine Hall.
Su Yu couldnât help but sigh. Now that the situation had developed to this point, it was no longer the time to exchange any Spirit Herbs, wasnât it?
Many disciples of the Xingxiang Sect, who werenât able to see a thing, had strange expressions on their faces when they heard this. Could this Ye Zhong be a fool? You still want to go to the Spiritual Medicine Hall at this time? Even if he wanted to go, would Chu Yun let him go so easily?
After shattering the jade token, Chu Yunâs body shook and he spat out another mouthful of blood, his expression turning ugly. At this moment, he could clearly feel that Ye Zhongâs seemingly casual finger attack had landed on his heart meridian. If not for the fact that he was cultivating an extraordinary Spiritual Secret Art of Body Tempering, he might have died by now.
Even with Chu Yunâs temperament, a hint of regret and fear appeared in his heart.
âWho is it!? Who dares to injure my disciple within the Xingxiang Sect!â
âMy dear disciple, are you alright?â
Ye Zhong suddenly frowned as he gazed at the front of him. He saw a figure rushing over like a stream of light, and landed on the square with a loud bang. When his gaze landed on Chu Yun, his expression changed drastically.
It was an old man with a completely white beard, wearing a grey robe. He had a round face with a thick double chin and fat body. However, even so, his eyes were as sharp as an eagleâs.
When his gaze landed on Chu Yun, his expression became fierce. With a flip of his hand, he took out a medicinal pill and quickly stuffed it into Chu Yunâs mouth. He then patted Chu Yun a few times before the aura in Chu Yunâs body stabilized, and the blood that was overflowing from the corner of his mouth was also stopped.
After doing so, the old man turned around abruptly, and his gaze landed on Ye Zhong. He then sneered, âBrat, it was you who attacked Yunâer, right?â
Ye Zhong frowned slightly, did not explain anything but said indifferently, âSo what of it?â
âHeh heh heh, âSo what of it?â, huh. Good answer! At such a young age, you are actually so vicious and merciless. When you made a move, actually aiming for the otherâs heart meridian! Today, this old man will cripple all four of your damn limbs and let the Sect Master give me an explanation!â The old man grinned fiercely. He didnât bother to ask what was right or wrong. He just stared at Ye Zhong with hatred in his eyes. He regarded Chu Yun as the apple of his eye, one of his assets in the struggle for power within the sect. But today, his beloved discipleâs heart meridian had actually been damaged. He didnât know how long it would take for him to recover and he just canât let it go no matter what.
Laughing maliciously, the old man took a step forward and his aura surged up. A terrifying pressure also engulfed Ye Zhongâs body.
Seventh Layer of Body Tempering â Marrow Quenching Stage!
This seemingly incomparably fat old man actually possessed such strength. If he had a fortuitous encounter, then this person could even break through to the Innate Martial Dao Realm!
With such strength, he was definitely on the level of an Elder of the Xingxiang Sect!
And when such a figure brazenly attacked, the surrounding disciples of the Xingxiang Sect all had slightly changed expressions of disdain on their faces. Even though they couldnât say anything with their status. However, they all saw the development of things clearly, and this Elder was going to cripple a disciple of the Xingxiang Sect without asking, which really made them feel disdainful towards him.
Ye Zhong knew that it was useless to talk to him now. He slowly let out a sigh, warily staring at the fat old man in front of him. He just activated the Shura Sword Seal, and the imprints quickly formed on his palm, one after another.

Even at this moment, Ye Zhong did not have the intention to beg for forgiveness or retreat. He rather wanted to try and see how strong an Elder at the Seventh Layer of Body Tempering could be!
Seeing that Ye Zhong did not seem to plan to retreat, the surrounding disciplesâ expressions all changed. Could it be that this Ye Zhong was planning to fight against a Sect Elder? Even if he was an Inner Disciple of the Xingxiang Sect, he wouldnât dare to do such an audacious thing, right?
