"Is... you... how could it be you!"
Chen Xuanfeng's eyeballs nearly leaped out, a look of fear on his face.
"Zhou Yan... are you fake?"
Hearing this, everyone turned their heads, and upon seeing the person's appearance, they were astonished.
The man was burly, with a face full of stubble, and a weathered look in his brows. A sharp aura emanated from him.
This was clearly a young man.
However, this young man was somewhat tattered, his clothes stained with dust, looking very disheveled.
"No, no! This is an illusion, it must be an illusion!"
Chen Xuanfeng's face turned deathly pale, shaking his head repeatedly.
He could never have imagined that the person he had been desperately searching for would turn out like this, even appearing before him.
*Swish!*
Chen Xuanfeng fiercely pinched his arm, and upon feeling the pain, his face became even more grim.
"Damn it!"
"This must be an illusion!"
Chen Xuanfeng gritted his teeth, forcing himself to calm down.
"Zhou Yan, you are actually fake!"
"But do you think by impersonating Zhou Yan, I will let you go?"
Chen Xuanfeng's eyes glinted with malice, and he spoke word by word.
"No need!"
Suddenly, the young man slowly shook his head.
"I am Zhou Yan!"
"Zhou Yan, the third young master of the Zhou family, is not someone you, a waste, can compare to!"
Zhou Yan glanced indifferently at Chen Xuanfeng, then swept his gaze around, and said loudly, "My fellow disciples, Chen Xuanfeng intends to usurp the Zhou family's inheritance. His crime is unforgivable!"
"I ask all my brothers to assist me in eliminating this villain and protecting the safety of the family!"
Zhou Yan's expression was solemn, his voice resounding with power.
*Boom!*
Instantly, the surrounding crowd erupted in an uproar.
"Zhou Yan is a fake? What is going on?"
The crowd murmured in confusion.
"Hmph, you little beast, you want to frame me? You're dreaming!"
Seeing this, Chen Xuanfeng became furious.
"I framed you?"
"Just now, I was talking with His Highness the Seventh Prince when you barged in and tried to attack me!"
Zhou Yan shouted angrily, "You say you are my second uncle, but you want to take my life. Don't you deserve to die?"
"This..."
Hearing Zhou Yan's words, everyone exchanged glances, falling into silence.
At this moment, all eyes turned to Chen Xuanfeng with suspicion.
"Damn it!"
Chen Xuanfeng's face turned ashen, and he cursed inwardly.
He hadn't expected Zhou Yan to switch people at the last moment.
Originally, he wanted to get rid of Zhou Yan in the chaos and seize the position of family head.
Who knew that Zhou Yan had already prepared and laid a trap, causing him to stumble badly.
"You little brat, I'll kill you!"
In his rage, Chen Xuanfeng attacked Zhou Yan again.
"Chen Xuanfeng, you are seeking death!"
"Today, both father and son will remain here!"
Zhou Yan's expression was stern, and without haste, he shifted his steps, dodging Chen Xuanfeng's attack.
*Bang!*
Chen Xuanfeng's punch missed, the wind of his fist brushing past.
"Zhou Yan, die!"
Failing to hit, Chen Xuanfeng pressed on, launching a killing move.
"Hmph, stubborn and unrepentant!"
Zhou Yan's eyes flashed, a hint of disappointment crossing them.
"Chen Xuanfeng, your cultivation is too weak, you cannot defeat me!"
Zhou Yan's expression was calm, he swung his arms, circulated his inner true energy, and swept his right leg out.
*Bang bang bang!*
In an instant, Chen Xuanfeng was kicked several times, grunting and flying backward.
*Puff!*
Chen Xuanfeng spewed out a mouthful of hot blood, his chest caved in, his chest bones shattered, and his ribs broken.
This scene was shocking.
"Zhou Yan, I will make you die!"
Chen Xuanfeng struggled to get up, a fierce killing intent in his eyes.
"Unappreciative!"
Zhou Yan's gaze was as sharp as a knife, his killing intent soaring. He leaped up and charged again.
"Chen Xuanfeng, you are no match for me, surrender!"
Zhou Yan's gaze was cold, and his figure flashed, turning into a black streak, shooting towards Chen Xuanfeng.
"Zhou Yan, you dare to injure me?"
Chen Xuanfeng's eyes were filled with madness. He roared, and his entire body surged with true essence.
*Crack! Crack! Crack!*
A faint golden light emanated from his body, and a heavy aura swept in all directions.
"Hmm? Innate Golden Core Realm?"
Zhou Yan's pupils contracted, he stopped his attack, looking at Chen Xuanfeng with a hint of surprise.
That's right!
At this moment, Chen Xuanfeng had actually reached the Innate Golden Core Realm, having cultivated a Golden Core.
While his innate talent was not top-tier, he possessed a secret technique that forcibly elevated his realm to the Innate Golden Core.
At this moment, his strength far surpassed that of an ordinary Innate Golden Core realm cultivator.
But compared to Zhou Yan, the gap was still vast.
"Chen Xuanfeng, our grievances should be settled today!"
Zhou Yan's expression was indifferent, a mocking smile playing on his lips.
"Kid, you think you can kill me?"
Chen Xuanfeng's face was contorted with ferocity, and he said venomously, "My strength is enough to contend with the peak of the Innate Golden Core realm, you can never defeat me!"
"Oh? Is that so?"
Zhou Yan's expression was playful, and he stared at Chen Xuanfeng with a smile that was not a smile.
"Hmph! Kid, don't try to scare me. I tell you, I will kill you today!"
Chen Xuanfeng coldly snorted, his eyes ferocious, his entire body radiating killing intent.
*Swish!*
Suddenly, Chen Xuanfeng's figure flickered, and he lunged like a leopard, his claws extended, rapidly grasping towards Zhou Yan's neck.
*Clack!*
Suddenly, Zhou Yan extended a finger, accurately pinning Chen Xuanfeng's wrist.
Then, with a twist.
*Crack!*
With a crisp sound, Chen Xuanfeng's arm was dislocated.
*Stomp stomp stomp!*
In pain, Chen Xuanfeng staggered back several steps, clutching his dislocated arm, his face contorted in rage, his eyes about to burst.
"Ah... you bastard, you dare to break my arm!"
"I will kill you!"
Chen Xuanfeng's anger surged, he roared, and spat out a jade pendant.
*Buzz!*
Instantly, the jade pendant emitted a dazzling radiance, and within it, an ancient ferocious beast seemed to awaken.
*Roar!*
The next moment, a deafening dragon roar suddenly sounded, and a crimson-gold giant python, several zhang long, appeared.
The crimson-gold giant python bared its fangs, its forked tongue flicking, and lunged towards Zhou Yan.
Its massive body was like a mountain, obscuring half the sky.
"Beast, begone!"
Zhou Yan let out a low roar and struck down with his palm.
*Bang!*
The giant python's body trembled violently, letting out a scream, and flew backward.
"What?"
Chen Xuanfeng's eyes widened, his face full of disbelief.
He had spent a great deal of effort to purchase this crimson-gold giant python.
But now, it was sent flying by Zhou Yan with a single palm strike.
*Whoosh!*
Just then, Zhou Yan pressed forward, throwing a punch.
*Puff!*
Chen Xuanfeng was sent flying, crashing onto the ground.
*Gasp!*
Chen Xuanfeng spat out a large mouthful of blood, his internal organs felt like they were churning, and he was in unbearable pain.
"Chen Xuanfeng, are you convinced now!"
