The fellow apprentice whom his father had always regarded as his own brother had become a cripple due to his father's misjudgment, and had been bedridden for nearly fifty years.
Even he found it hard to accept.
It took Zhang Huaiyi quite a while to calm himself down.
He wiped the tears from his face and shook his head at Xia Zhi.
"No, I can't go back. The Eight Extraordinary Techniques shouldn't even exist!"
Although he was greatly shaken after learning about Tian Jinzhong's ordeal, Zhang Huaiyi's eyes subsequently became even more resolute.
"The Eight Extraordinary Skills are a scourge! I cannot bring them to Longhu Mountain!"
Xia Zhi had long guessed that Zhang Huaiyi wouldn't go back so easily.
Otherwise, almost fifty years have passed, and he would have returned to Longhu Mountain long ago.
"Uncle-Master, Master told me that if you insist on not going back, we'll knock you out and bring you back!"
Zhang Huaiyi didn't react, but Zhang Yude and Zhang Chulan's expressions changed.
But then they heard Xia Zhi say something.
"But before that, I'd like to ask Uncle Zhang. Do you have any suspicions about the group that attacked Uncle Tian back then?"
"Good lad! You really are my disciple!"
Zhang Huaiyi sighed in admiration, but shook his head slightly.
"This kind of thing is for an old guy like me to do. It's not your time to step up yet."
He looked at his son and grandson, hesitated for a moment, and then said to Xia Zhi.
"Forget about my son, he can manage on his own. Take my grandson Zhang Chulan to Longhu Mountain and tell everyone he's an orphan."
"No, Grandpa! I don't want to go to Longhu Mountain! I want to stay with you and Dad!"
Although Zhang Chulan is still young, he has received an education that is not typical for ordinary children.
He knew why his grandfather did it, but he couldn't accept it emotionally.
"Uncle-Master, don't underestimate people."
Xia Zhi glanced at the stone mill outside the window, made a hand seal, and raised her right hand.
boom!
A bolt from the blue!
The powerful lightning struck the millstone, shattering it into pieces.
Zhang Huaiyi, Zhang Yude, and Zhang Chulan all widened their eyes.
Especially Zhang Yude.
"Heavens above! Even my thunder magic can't be this powerful, yet a ten-year-old child has done it? Have I wasted the last thirty years of my cultivation?"
Zhang Huaiyi felt that his Yang Wu Lei was nothing special!
Xia Zhi, who had just shown off her skills, put her hands away and said to Zhang Huaiyi.
"Uncle Zhang, so many years have passed. Not all those who dared to harm Uncle Tian back then are dead. Let's investigate each of the suspects you suspect, Uncle. I refuse to believe we won't find any clues!"
"No, no!"
Although surprised that Xia Zhi might be a prodigy, Zhang Huaiyi, as stubborn as a rock, resolutely refused.
"This matter must not involve Longhu Mountain any further! Go back now while no one has found you! We also need to move immediately!"
Zhang Yude complained very reluctantly.
"Dad, we're moving again? We just settled down!"
"Idiot! If Longhu Mountain can find us, then others can too!"
Zhang Huaiyi glared fiercely at Zhang Yude.
"From today onwards, we'll be separated. Be careful! Chu Lan, go with your Uncle Xia back to Longhu Mountain."
"Uncle-Master, you're being way too stubborn!"
Xia Zhi sighed helplessly, as lightning crackled and swirled around her.
"It seems that unless I practice with my martial uncle, he probably won't listen to me."
Upon arriving outside, Zhang Huaiyi was enveloped in the same lightning as Xia Zhi.
"Between extraordinary individuals, it is always a matter of fists to settle things."
He smiled and waved to Xia Zhi, signaling him to make the first move.
"Come. Let me see how much of the skill my senior brother and I possessed back then!"
Chapter 297 Battle against the Qi Source Flow
Almost simultaneously, Xia Zhi and Zhang Huaiyi raised their hands, facing each other.
"Palm Thunder!" x2
Two streaks of blue and white lightning shot out from the left and right sides toward the center, finally colliding violently.
Thunder roared!
Two almost identical bolts of lightning exploded at a height of more than one meter above the ground, producing a thunderous roar!
boom!
The other villagers were startled by the thunder and looked curiously in the direction from which it came.
Why does it always thunder on a sunny day?
"what!"
Caught off guard by the sudden, close-range thunder, Zhang Chulan cried out in pain and quickly covered his ears.
The shockwaves from the explosions of the two palm-sized thunderbolts kicked up dust and smoke.
Zhang Yude watched intently as his father and Xia Zhi fought.
After the two palm strikes ended in mutual destruction, Zhang Huaiyi and Xia Zhi, both surrounded by lightning, charged at each other at the same time!
Amidst the blinding blue and white lightning, Xia Zhi stretched out her fist and punched Zhang Huaiyi in the chest.
Zhang Huaiyi was unaware of Xia Zhi's true strength and assumed that he was small and weak.
He stretched out his right hand to block Xia Zhi's fist, while his left hand grabbed Xia Zhi's shoulder.
As a result, when Xia Zhi's fist struck Zhang Huaiyi's palm, he immediately felt a tremendous force coming from the other side!
Zhang Huaiyi's expression changed, and he stomped his right foot hard on the ground, leaving a deep half-footprint, changing his forward momentum to a backward one.
At the same time, his right palm slid, rotating to deflect the force in the direction from which it was transmitted.
Otherwise, Zhang Huaiyi's wrist would have been dislocated by this enormous force.
Zhang Huaiyi shook his wrist and found that it was a little sore and swollen.
This is a sign of a sprain.
"What a strength!"
Zhang Yude touched his head, looking somewhat surprised.
He never expected that his father would suffer a small loss when he fought this child who looked only twelve or thirteen years old!
Summer Solstice, having gained power, is relentless.
He quickly took two steps on the ground, surrounded by lightning, moving as fast as lightning as he approached Zhang Huaiyi.
Having just lost face, Zhang Huaiyi decided to use his true abilities.
Don't let this junior apprentice look down on you!
The Qi surrounding his body suddenly condensed. Although its volume shrank considerably, its quality was qualitatively improved.
Using this kind of Qi to drive the Yang Five Thunders can multiply their power!
In Xia Zhi's view, this was clearly the beginning of the Foundation Establishment stage.
He smiled slightly, and more of his magical power was released. The power of his own Yang Five Thunder was no weaker than Zhang Huaiyi's, and even more terrifying!
Zhang Huaiyi and Zhang Yude were terrified to see Xia Zhi using her magic to activate the Yang Five Thunder Transformation!
Zhang Huaiyi's expression changed.
"How did you learn the Qi Source Flow?"
"Is Martial Uncle's Qi Source Flow actually just converting Qi into magical power? Then Master can do that too!"
Xia Zhi spread out the five fingers of her right hand, and then clenched it tightly.
boom!
Tiny lightning bolts exploded in his palm, then attached themselves to his right hand, forming a lightning claw.
"I am born with the body of all laws, so I was born with this ability."
"He was born with it? He was born with it?"
Zhang Huaiyi stood there, his expression a mixture of shock and disappointment.
"I didn't leave any Qi Source Flow at Longhu Mountain, yet some Longhu Mountain disciples are born with it. Is this fate?"
If Xia Zhi hadn't been surnamed Xia, Zhang Huaiyi would have thought he was the next Celestial Master designated by his senior brother Zhang Zhiwei!
Zhang Huaiyi looked at Xia Zhi with a solemn expression.
Although he is a junior, his strength has already surpassed that of many sect leaders and elders!
“Child, many people have died because of the Eight Extraordinary Techniques. This matter is far too dangerous. I have prepared for the worst. I cannot take you with me.”
"Then I'll have to take you back to Longhu Mountain first, Uncle!"
Xia Zhi clenched her right hand into a lightning claw, but took out a magic wand with her left.
"Transform quickly!"
He waved his magic wand and turned several stone pillars next to him into tigers.
"Ow!!!"
To Zhang Huaiyi's astonishment, three tigers roared and swung their sharp claws, pouncing at him!
"Amazing!"
Seeing that Xia Zhi could actually turn a stone into a tiger, Zhang Chulan almost applauded.
"what!"
But Zhang Yude slapped Zhang Chulan on the head and said irritably.
"Just look, don't say anything."
Zhang Chulan: (`ヘ')
"die!"
Zhang Huaiyi let out a sharp shout and moved as fast as lightning.
He dodged a tiger's pounce with a swift movement, then slapped it on the head with his palm.
The tiger's head and body exploded, turning into scattered shards of rock.
Then Zhang Huaiyi shrank back, lunged forward, dodging another tiger, and kicked out with unparalleled speed and force, his right foot like a cannonball.
Click!
The kick landed squarely on the tiger's throat.
The tiger's eyes froze, its body trembled as it fell, turning back into a stone slab.
A deep footprint was left on the stone pier.
Zhang Huaiyi was terrified as he stared at the last tiger, muttering to himself.
"When did Longhu Mountain acquire such magic? I haven't been back for almost fifty years. How much have I missed?"
