Two hours later. Quanjiang City.

Yinghui Grocery Store.

As Xiang Zeng raised his palm and slammed it down.

After a brief pause.

Whoosh!

Amidst the harsh friction sound, the rolling shutter door instantly transformed into countless iron pieces, piercing through the glass door behind and splashing into the grocery store.

Inside the grocery store, all the tables and merchandise on the shelves were all pierced by the flying debris.

For a moment,

The harsh alarm sound accompanied by the sound of glass shattering echoed within the alley.

“It seems that this Chen Sheng is quite vigilant.”

Zhou Zheng dug his ear and wore a thoughtful expression on his face.

His gaze swept past Xiang Zeng’s shoulder and quickly scanned the dimly-lit grocery store interior.

Immediately afterward,

Zhou Zheng softly stomped his foot.

Whoosh!

A piece of broken glass instantly cut through the air and shot towards the alarm system inside the grocery store.

With a ‘bang’ sound,

The harsh alarm sound instantly disappeared.

Finally,

The alley resumed its tranquility.

Xiang Zeng’s face was solemn and he remained silent.

He glanced at the store’s situation, confirming that there was no one there, and withdrew his gaze immediately.

He stepped forward,

His foot landing on the glass, making a ‘crunch’ sound.

Xiang Zeng advanced towards the deep end of the grocery store.

Zhou Zheng followed.

Passing by the kitchen, Xiang Zeng sniffed.

“The smell of spirit medicine.”

“Not long ago, someone was boiling spirit medicine here.”

He took a quick glance at the kitchen,

Confirming that there were no traces of anyone there, he immediately withdrew his gaze and continued heading in the direction of the backyard.

Hmm?

As soon as he entered the backyard, Xiang Zeng’s brows furrowed instantly.

The look on Zhou Zheng’s face behind him also inevitably revealed a trace of astonishment.

“Junior brother , ”

“Have we… been beaten to it?”

Looking around, the place was a mess.

The entire open space in the backyard was covered with cracked bricks and debris.

It seemed that there had been a great war here before.

Could it be that someone else is looking for Chen Sheng?

With such questions,

Xiang Zeng’s gaze swept around, seemingly looking for useful clues.

But soon, his gaze froze.

In Xiang Zeng’s eyes, a green fluorescence was reflected.

The spiritual medicine field in a corner of the backyard was the only area that hadn’t been destroyed by Chen Sheng.

On the spiritual medicine field, more than a dozen brightly glowing spirit medicines stood upright side by side.

Without any hesitation,

Xiang Zeng quickly approached,

And stopped in front of the spiritual medicine field.

He took one glance and immediately found his target.

Following that,

Xiang Zeng squatted down and inserted his hand into the soil.

When he pulled his hand out,

He was already holding a section of a tree root emitting a strong spiritual light.

Is this…

A trace of surprise flashed in Xiang Zeng’s eyes, And Zhou Zheng behind him wore the same expression.

“Such a high-quality spirit seed…”

The reason for this reaction from both of them was the incredibly high quality of the spirit seed before them, considered to be the best of the best.

Even with Xiang Zeng’s status, he had only seen such high-quality spirit medicine once or twice in his own father’s private spiritual medicine field.

It should be noted that,

As the physical attributes of martial artists continue to increase, the resources needed for cultivation would also become greater.

Even for a major sect like the Power Sect, spirit medicine is not a resource that can be squandered freely.

High -quality spirit seeds are extremely valuable, both for individuals and groups.

Like the spirit seed in Xiang Zeng’s hand,

It was enough to support the cultivation of a strong martial artist like the Sect Master of the Power Sect.

The resulting spirit medicine also had far better effects than ordinary spirit medicine ,

It was truly a priceless treasure.

“Junior brother… do we…?”

Looking at the spirit seed in Xiang Zeng’s hand, Zhou Zheng couldn’t help but swallow his saliva.

He was merely a disciple of an elder and had far less access to spirit medicine resources than Xiang Zeng, let alone Zhao Zhenfeng.

If he could get his hands on such a high-quality spirit seed…

“Wait a moment.”

Before Zhou Zheng could offer his suggestion, he was interrupted by Xiang Zeng.

His eyes were filled with surprise, as if he was considering something.

What did the Eagle Body Sect do to deserve such a top-grade spirit seed?

There must be some other way of obtaining it. At this moment,

An image emerged in Xiang Zeng’s mind.

Shen Ziming.

Before this, he had suspected that this new disciple of the Yihe Gate might have some connection with Chen Sheng.

Upon seeing this spirit seed, Xiang Zeng became increasingly certain of the guess in his heart.

In all of China, there really weren’t many who could produce such a top-notch spirit seed.

At least not among those Xiang Zheng had seen or heard of.

At the very least, it required the level of a sect belonging to the Martial Arts Association Committee to possess one.

With this thought,

Xiang Zheng’s plan for dealing with Chen Sheng gradually changed from killing him outright to capturing him for interrogation.

If he could extract information from Chen Sheng, and even get Chen Sheng to admit that the spirit seed was a reward from Shen Ziming of Yihe Gate for hiring him to attack Xiang Zheng.

Maybe….. there would be an unexpected surprise.

A glint flashed in Xiang Zheng’s eyes.

If this spirit seed was really given to Chen Sheng by Shen Ziming.

Then the Power Sect could use this as an excuse to pressure Yihe Gate to give an explanation.

If they cannot explain.

Then it would be a disciple of Yihe Gate colluding with others to attack the disciples of the Power Sect.

If this accusation could be successfully pinned on Yihe Gate.

Then even if their Sect Leader, Sun Yihe, was a long-time brother of the Chairman of Martial Arts Association, there would undoubtedly be consequences.

“Now, let’s see if Chen Sheng will come back.” “If he learns of the situation and flees in advance…” Xiang Zheng slowly got up.

He was about to hand the spirit seed to Zhou Zheng.

But at that moment.

The voice from the entrance of the courtyard interrupted his words.

“Don’t worry.” “I’m not going anywhere.”

Whoosh!

Both of them turned their heads to look.

The figure of Chen Sheng appeared before their eyes.

Huh?

The instant they saw him,

A hint of confusion flashed across Xiang Zheng’s face.

The Chen Sheng in front of them differed greatly from the attacker in his memory.

The Chen Sheng in front of them appeared to be just over one point eight meters tall and quite thin.

However, the man who attacked him that day was at least one point nine meters tall even without entering the Breathing Method state and had a more imposing build.

“Are you Chen Sheng?”

Xiang Zheng frowned deeply.

At this moment,

Due to the dramatic change in Chen Sheng’s body,

Xiang Zheng, who was initially certain that the other party was the attacker, could not help but waver in his heart.

But soon,

He reaffirmed his thoughts.

After all,

There were too many ways to change one’s appearance in this world.

Perhaps the other party had deliberately disguised himself when attacking him.

“It’s me.”

Facing Xiang Zheng’s question,

Chen Sheng admitted without any concealment. At the same time,

His gaze swept over the evidently hostile duo.

Xiang Zheng.

He had once killed him,

Although he didn’t know how he came back to life, his attributes had not changed much and were not worth mentioning.

As for the other one…

Chen Sheng’s gaze landed on Zhou Zheng.

The other party’s attribute panel appeared before his eyes.

[Zhou Zheng] [Strength:124] [Agility:117]

[Constitution:119]

He was also not worth mentioning.

After quickly scanning the other party’s attributes and confirming there was no threat, Chen Sheng no longer paid attention to them.

Thus,

Chen Sheng looked towards the palm of Xiang Zheng’s hand.

To be precise, it was the spirit seed in his hand. “What are you trying to do with my stuff?” A hint of coldness appeared in Chen Sheng’s eyes. At the same time,

He took a step forward and slowly approached the duo.

“I want to ask you where you got this from?”

Xiang Zheng raised the spirit seed in his hand and shook it slightly, his eyes fixed on

With Zhou Zheng by his side now,

He appeared very composed against the suspected attacker Chen Sheng.

“A friend gave it to me.”

“Which friend?”

“Is it any of your business?”

Chen Sheng stood firm, facing Xiang Zheng’s intimidating gaze, two meters away from him.

The reason for not getting closer was due to the figure blocking his way.

Zhou Zheng.

He was tall and not much shorter than Chen Sheng before his breakthrough.

Now, standing between the two, he blocked Chen Sheng’s line of sight completely.

“Chen Sheng, right?”

“Hello, my name is Zhou Zheng, a disciple of the Power Sect.”

“Please maintain a certain distance.”

“For your own safety’s sake.”

Although Zhou Zheng’s face still had a smile,

It was completely different from when he faced Zhao Zhenfeng and Xiang Zheng.

The words were filled with an undeniable sense of refusal..
