Chapter 179 - 179: 176: Thousand Year Treasure_l

Zhang Huaizhong exclaimed with joy, “Yang Chen, it’s you Yang Chen! And Yingruo sister, you’re fine, it’s really great that you’re fine.”

Tears streamed down Zhang Huaizhong’s face. Although Zhang Yingruo was not his biological sister, she was a member of his clan, and their blood ties were close. Now that the Zhang family had fallen, only he could understand how extravagant it was to see another surviving family member.

“Brother Zhang, it’s okay now. Leave the rest to me.” Yang Chen looked down and stared at the trembling traitors who had originally betrayed the Zhang family and joined the Horse-thief Gang, saying, “You really put on a great show for me. You just betrayed the Zhang family and joined the Horse-thief Gang. Should I treat you as members of the Horse-thief Gang, or should I protect you as members of the Zhang Family? This makes things a bit difficult.”>

Hearing Yang Chen’s words, these traitors who had betrayed the Zhang family knelt down one by one, shouting at the top of their voices as if they were afraid that Yang Chen wouldn’t hear them: “Young Master Chen, we are from the Zhang family, the Zhang family!”

“Bullshit. vou still dare to sav vou are members of the Zhang familv. esDeciallv you Zhang Shengyi. You still dare to say you are a member of the Zhang family?” Zhang Huaizhong roared angrily:

“Why shouldn’t we be considered members of the Zhang family? Our last name is Zhang, we have the blood of the Zhang family, we are members of the Zhang family.” Zhang Shengyi shouted loudly, his voice hoarse. He knew about Yang Chen’s entry into the Spirit Martial Realm, and he had just witnessed Yang Chen killing the bandits.

In front of Yang Chen, he had no room for resistance.

“That’s right, we are members of the Zhang family.”

Yang Chen looked at the scene and sneered, “Zhang Shengyi, I used to think you were just a little schemer, but I didn’t expect you to put on such a good show, even daring to kill your own clan members. You really have no conscience. ”

“Yang Chen, I was just… I was just wronged. I was temporarily yielding. I planned to infiltrate the Bandits’ Gang and make plans for the Zhang family later.” Zhang Shengyi quickly came up with a reasonable excuse.

Upon hearing this, Yang Chen didn’t even look at Zhang Shengyi: “Miss Zhang, although I hate traitors, this is ultimately the Zhang family’s business. Choose how to deal with them, Miss Zhang.”

Zhang Yingruo had naturally seen everything that had happened in front of her from beginning to end. Adversity reveals true nature, and she finally knew what kind of people these spineless traitors were.

Thinking of this, she clenched her teeth tightly: “Young Master Yang, theoretically speaking, they are indeed members of the Zhang family, but the Zhang family doesn’t need spineless people like them.”

“Good, Miss Zhang’s choice is absolutely wise.” Yang Chen shouted sharply and then glanced at the Zhang family’s cowards below.

These cowards of the Zhang family widened their eyes one by one, kneeling down and begging for mercy.

Yang Chen showed no mercy, his True Qi surged, and he killed all the traitors of the Zhang family cleanly.

Zhang Yingruo made the right choice. These traitors, if left behind, would make no sense at all. The Zhang family did not need these fence sitters; keeping them would only bring disaster.

Eventually, when the Zhang family would be rebuilt, these traitors would become parasites sooner or later. Rather than that, it was better to kill them prematurely.

“Thank you, Young Master Yang.” Zhang Yingruo said with tears in her eyes.

“There’s no need for that. Since I vowed to protect the Zhang family, I have no intention of breaking my word. Now, Miss Zhang, go ahead and untie the surviving members of the Zhang family. You need to reunite for a while.” Yang Chen smiled and said.

Zhang Yingruo gratefully responded and hurriedly ran over.

Tonight, Yang Chen stayed at the Zhang family’s residence temporarily. As for Elder Yang and others, Yang Chen had naturally arranged everything for them.

At night, Yang Chen stayed in the room specially arranged by Zhang Yingruo.

He didn’t cultivate but instead focused his attention on the box with prohibitions given to him by Zhang Xuelian.

Today at the Zhang family, Yang Chen remembered this item and then said, “Rainbow, do you think that now that I have entered the Spirit Martial Realm, I have the ability to open this box?”

“Young Master can try. Logically speaking, the power of the Spirit Martial Realm can indeed break the first level of prohibition. However, these prohibitions are very complex, and I can’t guarantee it. Whether you succeed or not still depends on you, Young Master,” Rainbow poked her head out and spoke softly.

Upon hearing this, Yang Chen nodded and didn’t delay any further. The True Qi in his hand surged, and in an instant, he struck the mysterious box.

“Bang!”

A sound was born.

Rainbow quickly used her Divine Soul Power to block the spread of the sound, making it difficult for outsiders to hear Yang Chen’s actions.

“Huh?”

Yang Chen didn’t seem so calm at this moment. He looked at the box without any movement and touched his chin, “There isn’t even a trace of movement.”

This made him feel incredulous.

He didn’t believe it.

He didn’t give up after the first strike.

That strike just now was just a probing one.

This time he was going to give it his all.

In an instant, he gathered True Qi in his hand, and then the Essence Blood of the Black Mountain Black Bear trembled slightly in his hand. In an instant, a miniature Black Mountain Dark Cloud Palm formed, and Yang Chen suddenly bombarded the prohibition on the box.

Boom.

The deafening sound was blocked by Rainbow’s Divine Soul Power, not spreading out and disturbing others.

At this moment, dust flew up, causing Yang Chen to cough endlessly. When Yang Chen could finally see clearly, a smile of joy gradually appeared on his face: “Broken. Haha, the power of the Black Mountain Dark Cloud Palm is indeed extraordinary.”

Rainbow exclaimed, “Congratulations, young master. If it was another Spirit Martial Realm practitioner, it would have taken at least two or three layers of prohibition to break the prohibition. You broke it with just the first one.”

At this moment, Yang Chen’s attention was not on Rainbow’s praise. Both of his eyes were fixed on the box.

Upon breaking the first prohibition, the first drawer of the box opened, revealing a delicate and finely crafted silver key floating inside.

This key exuded an enticing aura. If it weren’t for Rainbow’s Divine Soul power blocking it, the Zhang family would have been overflowing with light, illuminating the four directions.

Seeing this scene, could Yang Chen not be surprised, “What is the history of this key?”

Rainbow stared intently at the key and kept saying, “Young Master, you’ve picked up a treasure this time.”

Despite his rich experiences, Yang Chen was not omniscient. Hearing

Rainbow’s words, he hesitated and asked, “Rainbow, do you know this key?”

“Yes, yes. My inherited memory contains information about this key; this key is associated with a thousand-year-old treasure. Young master, with this key, you get an opportunity. That woman was really generous.” Rainbow exclaimed, referring to Zhang Xuelian, the woman in this context.

Yang Chen hesitated for a moment.

Thousand-year Treasure?

What…

What on earth did Zhang Xuelian give him?
