Young Master Chen has truly gone mad!

He actually dares to provoke the Ancestor of the Zhao Family! And he even killed Zhao Yumei's father!

"Do you still intend to stop me?" Chen Zheng's gaze turned cold.

"Master Chen—!"

The middle-aged man's face turned deathly pale, and he stumbled backward in fear.

"You are provoking my Zhao Family! You are seeking death! Master Chen, if you dare set foot in the Zhao Family estate, not even the Heavenly King himself could save you!" Zhao Changsheng suddenly appeared, staring coldly at Chen Zheng as he sneered.

"The Heavenly King?" Chen Zheng frowned slightly, a contemplative look on his face. After a moment, he shook his head. "I originally planned to exterminate the Zhao Family tonight, but since you've arrived, I've changed my mind."

What!

Exterminate the Zhao Family!

Zhao Changsheng and the guards in the Zhao Family courtyard were all stunned.

Has Master Chen lost his mind? Exterminate the Zhao Family? That's just a madman's fantasy!

"Master Chen! Could it be that you've awakened your inherited memories?"

Suddenly, a gleam flashed in Zhao Changsheng's eyes as he stared intently at Chen Zheng.

"Heh." Chen Zheng let out a faint laugh.

"So that's how it is! No wonder you dared to barge into my Zhao Family so brazenly. No wonder you had the courage to kill my people! I understand now! I finally understand! Haha! Master Chen, congratulations on successfully capturing my attention! I have decided to take you as my disciple! Are you willing to take me as your master, join the Zhao Family, and help me ascend to the rank of Golden Immortal?" Zhao Changsheng let out a sinister laugh.

BOOM!

Suddenly, the sky above roared with thunder.

"A tribulation!"

"Zhao Changsheng is undergoing his tribulation!"

"This is Zhao Changsheng's Heavenly Tribulation! He's about to break through to the Golden Immortal realm! It's said that above the Golden Immortal is the Celestial Monarch! He's about to cross the great chasm between the mortal and immortal worlds!"

"Master Chen is doomed!"

In an instant, dark clouds gathered over the Zhao Family estate, and lightning danced like crazed serpents. The terrifying pressure of the thunder spread for hundreds of feet in every direction.

"Master Chen, I must face my tribulation first! After I'm finished, we shall have a proper chat!" Zhao Changsheng whispered, transforming into a streak of light that soared into the heavens.

WHOOSH!

In the blink of an eye, he vanished without a trace.

"This... Master Chen, what... what should we do now?"

Inside the Zhao Family courtyard, Old Madam Zhao stared at the terrifying thunder in the sky, her face filled with worry as she looked at Chen Zheng. She felt this tribulation was different from others; it was countless times more fearsome than the tribulations for the Golden Core or Nascent Soul Realms.

Because this was the Golden Immortal Tribulation.

Zhao Changsheng was about to endure the great tribulation to become a Golden Immortal. If he succeeded, he would be a Golden Immortal. Although the Zhao Family had a protective clan formation, it wouldn't last for more than five breaths. This time, once the Ancestor's seclusion ended, he should come out to help defend against the tribulation. But the crucial day of the Ancestor's seclusion had already arrived, so he might not be able to emerge from his retreat right now.

Unless... unless the Ancestor has already become a Demi Immortal!

"Hmph! You worthless thing, you're utterly unfit to be Master Chen's servant!" With a thought, Old Madam Zhao glared fiercely at the middle-aged man. "Master Chen is the heir of the Nine Heavens Mysterious Lady. If he perishes, she will certainly come to settle the score with you!"

SWISH!

Upon hearing this, the middle-aged man was so frightened he nearly collapsed.

Master Chen is the heir of the Nine Heavens Mysterious Lady! Holy hell! What a noble status! No wonder Master Chen is so domineering and arrogant! And I actually told him to leave the Zhao Family just now! I was so damn blind!

"Nine Heavens Mysterious Lady! Hmph!"

But in the next second, Old Madam Zhao let out a contemptuous, cold sneer.

"What? The Nine Heavens Mysterious Lady?" The middle-aged man trembled. "Didn't she ascend long ago? The heir of the Nine Heavens Mysterious Lady... isn't that just a joke? Master Chen, you better run for your life!"

"Zhao Yumei! Get your ass out here! Master Chen came to rescue my daughter and me, to back us up, yet you sent people to kill him! I'm telling you, you have committed a monstrous crime! If Master Chen gets angry, he might slaughter the entire Zhao Family!" Old Madam Zhao shouted coldly.

"Master Chen! Master Chen! I beg you, please spare the Zhao Family! Our family cannot survive without Zhao Changsheng, otherwise the Zhao Family is doomed!" the middle-aged man wailed along.

"I, Chen, have never needed anyone to back me up," Chen Zheng replied indifferently. He took a single step, soaring into the air and appearing almost instantly within the Zhao Family's inner residence.

"Heavens! He's really here to kill us!"

"He actually dares!"

"Oh my god, what do we do?"

Seeing this, the members of the Zhao Family screamed in terror.

WHOOSH!

A purple divine light burst through the clouds, transforming into the phantom of a colossal beast. The phantom beast opened its mouth and devoured the Heavenly Tribulation, swallowing all of it in an instant before fusing with all its power. As the tribulation's energy merged into it, a boundless aura surged from within the beast phantom, sweeping through every inch of the Zhao Family estate in a flash.

"What... what is this aura?"

"It feels... it feels like an immortal's might!"

"It is an immortal's might!"

The Zhao Family members cried out in alarm again.

BOOM!

Suddenly, a bolt of lightning tore through the night sky.

Then, it began to rain blood.

"This... this is... Divine Punishment has descended!"

"The heavens are furious!"

The people of the Zhao Family looked up, trembling uncontrollably.

"Little one, I've been waiting for you for a long time."

Just then, a deep, hoarse voice echoed from the blood-red sky, as if descending from the highest heavens, resonating in all directions. As everyone was stunned by the voice, wondering who had spoken, a figure traversed the void, heading straight for the Zhao residence's inner compound.

"It's Master Chen! Master Chen!"

"Master Chen is still alive!"

The Zhao Family members abruptly raised their heads.

BOOM!

CRACK!

But in the next moment, another bolt of lightning struck down. This one was even more ferocious.

And it was aimed directly at Chen Zheng.

"This... Master Chen, you... you shouldn't have come..." Old Madam Zhao murmured. Witnessing this, she knew Chen Zheng was doomed to die tonight. She only hoped he could live out the last moments of his life in peace. As for everything else, she just prayed that the Zhao Family estate wouldn't be caught in the crossfire.

"Heh."

Facing the Heavenly Tribulation's deadly assault, Chen Zheng simply shook his head.

"ROAR!"

At that same moment, the colossal beast phantom roared again. An immense, boundless power erupted from it, blocking the lightning bolt. The descending, blood-red lightning exploded on impact.

"Oh?"

At that very instant, the beast phantom's brow twitched as if it had sensed something unusual.

"This little thing is rather interesting."

The next second, a voice laced with amusement drifted from the depths of the firmament.

BOOM!

An ancient warship materialized in the sky, a hazy figure standing upon its deck.

"Hm?"

The beast phantom's expression grew vigilant as it scanned the blurry figure. When it saw the figure more clearly, its brow furrowed even deeper.

"Master Chen!"

"That's an Immortal Boat! There's a Demi Immortal on board! Master Chen, retreat quickly!"

"Is the Immortal Boat here to deal with the heir of the Nine Heavens Mysterious Lady?"

The members of the Zhao Family screamed in panic. They had never witnessed a being of this level before. Only a few who were slightly calmer were now staring intently at the ancient warship.

"A Demi Immortal, you say?"

Chen Zheng raised his right hand and made a casual grab at the empty air. A cyan sword light flew out.

"Slash!"

The cyan sword light slashed forward.

RIP!

An ear-piercing tearing sound echoed through the air.
