"boom!"

"boom!"

"boom!"

Despite continuous pounding, there was still no effect. Tian Jinzhong looked tense, was panting heavily, and his five fingers on his right hand were throbbing with pain. He looked at Zhuge Yu with a puzzled and pleading gaze.

"Junior Brother Zhuge, is it because it's too big and difficult to open?"

"It is precisely because the answer you want to know is inside that it is difficult to open and overcome. Even for me, it took many years of hard work to barely overcome the obstacles to the question I seek each time."

Zhuge Yu pondered and said, "The light sphere I just used is meaningless and unimportant to you. I need to exert force to shatter it, but you could probably tear it apart with a simple tug."

"Similarly, a ball that you can't break is just a piece of cake for me."

"However... everyone has their own destiny. Out of respect, I can't help you right away. You should try first. If you really can't break it, then I'll take action."

Tian Jinzhong received the hint and suddenly realized the answer. He was extremely eager for the answer, so he clenched his fist again and threw a heavy punch.

"boom!"

A dull thud resounded, and a faint crack appeared on it.

At the same time, intense pain came from his finger bone. Tian Jinzhong subconsciously looked down and saw that it was covered in blood and the bone was about to crack.

"drink."

He was determined to get the answer and launched a new offensive in one fell swoop.

Chapter 225 Sword Pointing at the Wang Family

"Wow!"

With a crisp cracking sound and dozens of repeated pounding, the sphere could no longer withstand the impact. Light burst forth, and streams of light containing messages entered Tian Jinzhong's brow.

The scenes of torture replay in the depths of my mind, and this time, the murderers, wearing masks and concealing their true faces, are right in front of me.

Tian Jinzhong stood silently behind them, gazing at the torture in the dungeon. His gaze pierced through the fog, revealing the faces of the people clearly. They seemed somewhat familiar, as if he had encountered them before when he intercepted the Japanese aliens during a battle on the coast.

"The Wang family?!"

The scene shifts again, revealing a meeting in a secret room where several of the Wang family's leaders are discussing matters.

The obese elder of the Wang family suggested killing him to silence him, which was agreed upon by the old man with the pen. The two of them wanted to kill him in a few words, but the head of the Wang family stopped them and said something that made his spine tingle.

“The Quanxing traitors have bullied my clan and killed my elders. Since that’s the case, they should pay the price.”

“Send Tian Jinzhong back, shift the blame eastward, and say that it was done by the sorcerers of Quanxing.”

The Wang family, one of the four families, actually broke the alliance agreement and attacked him in such a vicious way. They even took the opportunity to provoke a bloody war between the Celestial Master's Mansion and the Quanxing Sect so that they could reap the benefits.

Tian Jinzhong's chest heaved violently with anger. He stared intently at the faces of the clan elders present, his veins bulging with hatred.

"Wow!"

The scene before him vanished like smoke, and when Tian Jinzhong saw Zhuge Yu again, he opened his mouth to speak: "Yes..."

"Don't!"

"It should not be said lightly."

Zhuge Yu reacted swiftly, stepping forward and covering Tian Jinzhong's mouth.

"?!"

"Junior Brother Zhuge, what is the reason for this? Is it because I cannot tell you? Is it because your spirit is here, and it would violate some unseen law?"

Having his mouth released, Tian Jinzhong swallowed back the words in his throat, feeling that something was amiss.

"No...it doesn't affect me, but it does affect you, Senior Brother Tian."

Zhuge Yu recited them as if they were his own treasures:

"The answers you get inside are only for you to know, in theory. But if you forcefully tell outsiders, you will be punished by heaven. Your actions are tantamount to deceiving heaven. The severity of the consequences depends on the impact of the information you reveal on the world. At best, you will have bad luck; at worst, you will die a violent death on the spot."

"That's why many fortune tellers in the underworld often speak in a mysterious and cryptic way when they're predicting someone's fate. By not directly revealing the truth, they can convey information indirectly through ambiguity, thus significantly reducing the punishment."

"!"

Tian Jinzhong's pupils contracted slightly as he understood the cause and effect. He was even more grateful to Zhuge Yu, because according to the information contained in the light sphere, without the inner vision's exploration, he really wouldn't have been able to find out about the Wang family.

"Thank you so much, Junior Brother Zhuge!!!"

Tian Jinzhong bowed respectfully with his hands clasped in front of him.

"Are you sure everything has been investigated thoroughly?"

Zhuge Yu pressed on, his brows furrowing slightly, a sense of disgust rising within him at the sight of the strange monster slowly awakening in the inner realm.

"Hmm. By the way, Junior Brother Zhuge, if I indirectly convey a message to Senior Brother and Master, will they be in trouble?"

Tian Jinzhong was eager for revenge, but he did not want to implicate the two men or have a negative impact on them.

"No, here are two methods for you, Senior Brother Tian."

"Firstly, you can say nothing and let the Celestial Master protect you while you seek revenge, provided you don't indiscriminately kill innocent people, otherwise you'll incur sin."

"Secondly, try to be vague, so that the consequences of saying it directly will be too heavy."

Zhuge Yu patiently gave instructions, not forgetting to say:

"Of course, Senior Brother Tian, ​​you are not a sorcerer. You may only glimpse the secrets of heaven once in your life, and it hasn't reached the point of affecting your life. Many sorcerers often suffer backlash and die young because they calculate too much. Your situation is relatively safe. I am just reminding you, that's all."

“Okay...I understand, Junior Brother Zhuge, thank you very much.” Tian Jinzhong nodded.

"Alright, then Senior Brother Tian, ​​I'll see you out first. I'll wake up slowly later so that Uncle-Master and the Celestial Master don't have to worry about me."

Zhuge Yu smiled calmly and waved casually. Before Tian Jinzhong could respond, his figure disappeared from the vast inner world.

"boom!"

At the same instant, a wet water droplet appeared in the void, dozens of times larger than the previous millstone-shaped sphere of light.

A strange figure stood beside the water droplet, its appearance strikingly similar to Zhuge Yu, and it spoke in a seductive voice:

Don't you want to know where your parents are?

"Feng Hou Qi Men... What a wondrous, divine technique..."

"Make more repairs, take a few steps forward, control all the changes in the world, and live a carefree and unrestrained life! Wouldn't that be wonderful!"

Seeing that Zhuge Yu did not react, the man suddenly became angry and snarled:

"You wasteful fool! You really aren't tempted by the Eight Extraordinary Techniques?!"

"You were just one step away! Just say the word! Doesn't your uncle spoil you? Go and take it! Cultivate it openly and honestly! Why pretend to be so aloof?!"

"..."

"Save your breath. You can't do anything to me. One day, I'll learn the methods of my ancestors and burn you to ashes."

Zhuge Yu's face was frosty. Faced with his inner demons, his cultivation was not high enough. At most, he could only suppress them, not eliminate them.

"You fool, you'll regret this one day!"

The man roared and unleashed a punch that shattered the enormous water droplet, which vanished in an instant.

In the vast inner world, Zhuge Yu stood still, his figure gradually fading away.

When he opened his eyes again, he was back in the real world. Everyone present was waiting for him to recover, and they were relieved when they saw that he was alright.

"Was it going smoothly?" Jiang Mo asked the two who had woken up one after the other.

"How is Jinzhong?" Zhang Jingqing asked, also concerned.

"Reporting to Sect Leader Jiang, Master, I am fortunate to have the assistance of Junior Brother Zhuge, and the truth has been verified."

Thinking of the information in the inner world, Tian Jinzhong couldn't help but feel apprehensive. The Wang family's leaders were ruthless and ruthless; if it were a small sect, they really wouldn't be able to do anything about them.

"Oh, who is it? Jinzhong? Could you tell me roughly?"

Zhang Jingqing couldn't wait to avenge her disciple.

"Junior Brother Zhuge, am I... available?" Tian Jinzhong recalled the instructions in the inner world, turned to look at Zhuge Yu, and asked if the time was right.

"Okay, go ahead and speak, but try to be careful."

At his prompting, Tian Jinzhong fell into thought, organizing his thoughts, before finally saying, "A drop of dew on a jade lotus, its roundness only known when it is not yet fixed?"

As a sorcerer, Zhuge Yu immediately understood and asked, guessing, "The pipa and the zither are each a pair?"

"..." Tian Jinzhong suppressed his excitement and nodded cautiously, indicating that the answer was correct.

By this point, the group, being quite perceptive, easily deduced the truth based on the clues in the two riddles.

"Wang family?"

The Celestial Master's face darkened; he hadn't expected such a ruthless move from his opponent, and his anger surged.

"If it's them, then it's normal."

Jiang Mo, knowing the whole story, said:

"The Quanxing demons also covet the Eight Extraordinary Techniques. A while ago, their sect leader led them to the Wang family, causing a great disturbance, killing many people, and even stealing the 'Spirit Binding and General Commanding' that Feng Tianyang had offered as tribute."

"The Wang family has accumulated a long list of old and new grudges, and they hate Quanxing to the bone. All of this is just a scheme for them to seize the source of Qi. They are also using your hands as bait to start a war with Quanxing and plan their revenge."

"I'm so angry."

Zhang Jingqing's fists clenched so tightly they cracked; he knew something was amiss and it might not have been the work of Quanxing.

He could accept that the murderer was some rogue cultivator who had never joined the alliance, and that killing them would be the end of it. But when the truth was revealed, he discovered that it was the Wang family, an ally, which made him furious.

"Jinzhong, are you feeling unwell?"

"I can take you there anytime to demand an explanation. Whoever hurt you, I will make them pay with their life. Even if the sky falls, I will stand up for you. I can't bear to see this happen."

The Celestial Master's tone was firm and cold. He hadn't been this angry or out of control in over a decade; he truly couldn't restrain himself today.

If we let the murderer go free and kill him without leaving a trail of heads, wouldn't anyone be able to bully the disciples of the Celestial Master's Mansion in the future?

"Jinzhong, rest assured, my master and I will never let those bastards who hurt you get away with it."

Zhang Zhiwei spoke calmly, but his determination was unwavering.

"Master...Senior Brother..."

Tian Jinzhong was deeply moved, his eyes welled up with tears, and he choked up as he said, "I'm so grateful for your care and for helping me avenge my family. I don't know what to say. Please accept my bow."

"Foolish! I regard you as my own son, and your senior brother treats you like a brother. This is just a trivial matter. Why bother yourself? Don't mention it again!"

Zhang Jingqing felt sorry for the child, who was too sensible. Fortunately, he was safe now, otherwise he would have a guilty conscience for the rest of his life.

"Shall we set off tomorrow?"

"When the time comes, you can point out the beasts that hurt you to your master. I will kill them all and see what the Wang family can say in response."

"Your disciple will follow your instructions."

Zhang Tianshi then looked at Jiang Mo and said, "I wonder if it would be possible to trouble Sect Leader Jiang to come with us and be a witness?"

"Since the Celestial Master has invited me, and I have no urgent business to attend to, I will go to the Wang family as a guest and see how they will explain themselves."

As evening approached, Jiang Mo and the others soon had dinner. Afterward, he sent Lu Jin and Zhang Zhiwei down the mountain to rent rickshaws from a car rental shop in the city.

Late at night, rickshaws drove back into the mountains to wait.

The following morning, Jiang Mo, along with several disciples and the three Celestial Masters, set off together.

At dusk, the three rickshaws finally arrived in front of the Wang family's house.

The hot-tempered Taoist priest endured the journey, and upon arriving at his destination, he got out of the car first and closed the door.

"boom!!!"

"Tell Wang Zhiheng to come out and see me!"

The old man stood at the door and angrily rebuked them. When they saw that it was the Celestial Master, the family guards panicked and hurriedly went to report.

Wang Zhiheng, head of the Wang family, father of Wang Ai.

"Trinity...Trinity Gate is here too?!"

"Hiss... What on earth is going on?"

There were only six guards at the gate, all of them drenched in sweat, and they dared not even stop the guests, watching helplessly as they barged into the mansion.
