782: Goodbye, Jun Lingyu.

Tianxin Realm, Zhang Family.

A middle-aged man with an extraordinary air and the aura of someone in a high position was drinking tea.

This middle-aged man with the aura of a high position was none other than the head of the Zhang Family, Zhang Beiliang.

Just then, an old man wearing deacon robes hurried in. "Family Head, Zhang Li's soul lamp has gone out."

"How is that possible? Wasn't he supposed to be chasing down that brat?" Zhang Beiliang frowned slightly.

"Family Head, more than twenty days ago, Zhang Li did indeed follow that brat when he left Tianxin Academy," the deacon said.

"This is a bit strange. Could it be that the brat has someone from Tianxin Academy protecting him?" Zhang Beiliang muttered to himself.

"Family Head, what should we do next? Should we send more people to assassinate him?" the deacon asked.

"Hmph, whoever dares to kill my, Zhang Beiliang's, son must pay a bloody price."

A cold light glinted in Zhang Beiliang's eyes. "Notify the Blood Guard Battalion, have them change their appearances, and then guard outside Tianxin City. As soon as that brat appears, kill him without mercy."

"Yes, Family Head," the deacon replied respectfully.

...

Tianxin Academy, Core Disciple area.

Inside an extremely luxurious palace, Jun Lingyu's expression was terrifyingly gloomy.

Just a moment ago, he discovered that the soul lamp of his manager, Tang Tianming, had suddenly gone out.

"Could it be that the academy's higher-ups are protecting that brat?"

Jun Lingyu's brows were tightly locked, and a Killing Intent welled up in his eyes. "Stinky brat! No matter who is protecting you, once you have offended Jun Lingyu, the only thing waiting for you is death."

...

At this moment, Yang Lingchen had arrived at Hengtong City again. This time, he planned to head to Fengdi City in the Tianxin Realm.

Fengdi City, the city where the Zhang Family was located.

Since the Zhang Family was determined to kill him, Yang Lingchen naturally had to retaliate, otherwise, they would really think he was easy to bully.

After two teleportations and three days of flying, Yang Lingchen finally arrived at Fengdi City.

After entering the city, Yang Lingchen used a transformation technique to change his appearance and then stayed at the largest restaurant in the city.

As the largest Family in Fengdi City, the Zhang Family had absolute authority in the city, and no other Family dared to provoke them.

Yang Lingchen's plan was very simple: to drain the entire younger generation of the Zhang Family, letting them know how severe the consequences of offending him would be.

In the following days, the younger generation of the Zhang Family began to disappear inexplicably.

At first, the Zhang Family didn't take it to heart, but as the number of disappearances increased, the high-level members of the Zhang Family finally realized the severity of the situation.

In just ten short days, dozens of Zhang Family Geniuses had died at the hands of Yang Lingchen.

However, because the cultivation level of these young people from the Zhang Family was not high, Yang Lingchen's cultivation level did not see explosive growth after draining them; it only improved from the Early Stage of the Earth Immortal Realm Eighth Layer to the Middle Stage of the Earth Immortal Realm Eighth Layer.

Zhang Family, Council Hall.

"Have you found out? Who exactly did this?"

Zhang Beiliang sat in the main seat with a gloomy expression, his angry gaze fixed on the high-level members of the Zhang Family.

"Family Head, according to our image stone monitoring, this person is a young man, but it is very obvious that his appearance has been altered, so it is difficult for us to find his identity in a short time."

A middle-aged man wearing black robes with a gloomy face spoke up.

"Regardless, this guy dared to kill members of my Zhang Family, so he must pay a bloody price."

A bloodthirsty Killing Intent welled up in Zhang Beiliang's eyes.

"Family Head, do you think it's possible that this brat is Yang Lingchen?" the gloomy-faced middle-aged man asked.

"Regardless of whether it is him or not, we absolutely cannot let this brat go," Zhang Beiliang said coldly.

"Father, I have a method that can capture this person in one fell swoop," Zhang Wuhen said.

"What method?" Zhang Beiliang asked in a deep voice.

"I would like to use myself as bait to capture this person in one fell swoop."

Zhang Wuhen said: "Father can have the Elders hide inside my secret treasure space. Once this person makes a move, we can capture him in one fell swoop."

"Good, let's use this method."

A strange light flashed in Zhang Beiliang's eyes, and he immediately began to give orders: "Grand Elder, you hide in Wuhen's secret treasure space; Second Elder, you hide in Wuxin's secret treasure space; Third Elder, you hide in Qingya's secret treasure space. This time, strive to capture this guy in one fell swoop."

"Yes, Family Head," several Elders replied one after another.

"In addition, recall the Blood Guard Battalion from Tianxin City. I suspect that, nine times out of ten, that brat is likely Yang Lingchen," Zhang Beiliang said in a deep voice.

"Yes, Family Head."

...

At this moment, Yang Lingchen had already stepped onto the Teleportation Array heading to Tianxin City.

He had been slaughtering in Fengdi City for ten days, and the Zhang Family's guards had become increasingly strict. In order not to put himself in danger, Yang Lingchen naturally wouldn't stay here forever.

After all, with his current strength, it was almost impossible to destroy the Zhang Family in a short time.

Returning to Tianxin City again, Yang Lingchen's mood became much more relaxed. Only a little over a month had passed since he left, but his cultivation level had improved from the Earth Immortal Realm Fourth Layer to the Earth Immortal Realm Eighth Layer.

"Lingchen."

Just then, Ji Tiantian's elegant voice came from behind Yang Lingchen.

Immediately after, Ji Tiantian and Qiao Yanxi walked over from the distance.

What made Yang Lingchen feel surprised was that Jun Lingyu was actually beside Qiao Yanxi.

"Young Miss Tiantian, I didn't expect to meet you here." A faint smile curled up at the corner of Yang Lingchen's mouth.

He only greeted Ji Tiantian; as for Qiao Yanxi and Jun Lingyu, he didn't have any good feelings for them, so he directly ignored the two of them.

"Lingchen, where have you been this past month? I haven't seen you in class at all." A charming smile appeared on Ji Tiantian's face as she walked naturally to the front of Yang Lingchen.

"I went out for some training for a period of time and just happened to return today." A sunny smile appeared on Yang Lingchen's face.

"It's rare that we met today. Why don't we go to the Medicinal Cuisine Restaurant to eat something together?" Ji Tiantian said with a smile.

"If Young Miss Tiantian were inviting me alone, I would naturally have time, but if there are many people, then I won't go," Yang Lingchen said with a smile.

"Yang Lingchen, do you think everyone wants to eat with you?" Qiao Yanxi said coquettishly, her eyes full of disdain.

"...!" Yang Lingchen's mouth twitched slightly, and he didn't speak. He had absolutely no interest in such a brainless woman.

"Yang Lingchen, we meet again."

At this moment, Jun Lingyu stepped forward, his sharp eyes revealing an invisible pressure.

"Senior Brother Jun, as the number one Core Disciple, surely you wouldn't be petty with your Junior Brother over some small misunderstandings from before!"
