Clan Rise: Starting as a Grandfather

Chapter 965: Chapter 683: A Dignified Death

“What are you all waiting for?” Wang He was anxious, wanting to call for reinforcements.

Zhang Luan, Jian Chengfeng, and others hesitated a bit, but they didn’t hesitate for long.

“Ahem, hey, Little Jian, you see an old man like me and don’t even pay your respects!” An Yuxing appeared behind Jian Chengfeng at some unknown time, grinning.

Jian Chengfeng’s mouth twitched slightly, “Senior, can you not call me Little Jian!”

“Hahaha, who’s to blame for you being so young!” An Yuxing laughed heartily.

“Let’s all watch, lest we hurt the harmony!”

At this moment, Zhou Tianci and Liang Shengze also stepped over corpses and walked slowly in.

The two first nodded to Zhang Luan, then looked at Li Zhen and Yang Jiushi.

Zhang Luan’s eyes were full of helplessness. Was there still any point in fighting this battle?

If facing Liang Shengze, he still had the confidence to fight to the death, but facing Zhou Tianci, he truly had no desire to make a move.

Zhou Tianci was not someone from his era. When Zhou Tianci rose to fame, he was still a small soldier in the army.

Not to mention there was also An Yuxing beside him.

Four against three, they had no confidence of winning.

Moreover, there were still more than a dozen Innate Martial Artists around.

Zhang Luan swept his gaze over the surroundings, looking at the figures standing at the edge of the sea of fire and in the dim places, and sighed softly in his heart.

It’s not that I lack resolve, it’s just that it’s meaningless.

The gap is too big; this is not something that can be made up for by fighting desperately.

Yet it was not over, Yu Qingyi appeared out of nowhere and casually scattered a handful of seeds, causing countless vines to grow wildly in the battlefield.

In the blink of an eye, a massive cage appeared around the original main general’s tent, isolating inside and out.

“I am Yu Qingyi, greetings to all seniors!”

Yu Qingyi stood on one of the vines and bowed slightly to everyone.

Her move completely astonished everyone, even An Yuxing widened his eyes, looking incredulous.

“Mrs. Yu, what is this?” Zhou Tianci directly asked.

Yu Qingyi was not modest, smiling faintly, “It’s just a little bit of my insight into Dao Intent!”

Although her appearance still looked very young now, her age did not allow her to call herself concubine anymore, she was already a great-grandmother, calling herself old woman was only appropriate.

“Dao Intent!” Zhou Tianci’s eyes flickered, looking at the huge cage woven from vines.

This is the Azure Dragon Vine, not only growing quickly and having a thick shape, but also very tough, even harder than pine wood by several degrees.

“Dao Intent can actually reach such a level?” Zhang Luan said, staring wide-eyed in amazement.

At this time, he completely forgot about Wang He inside the cage, even Emperor Tianwu was the same, their hearts and eyes filled only with the towering cage ten zhang high.

Not to mention Zhang Luan and others, even the well-traveled Zhou Tianci had never seen such a method by Yu Qingyi.

Of course, this is not to say that Yu Qingyi’s method is so incredible, but Zhou Tianci’s experience is still too limited.

Although he had been to Dazhao and seen many Innate Martial Artists in Dazhao, and heard a lot about Martial Arts Dao Intent, his understanding of Dao Intent still pales in comparison to Yang Zhenshan.

After all, at that time he was only mixing in the fringe areas of Dazhao, not truly facing martial artists of Dao attainments, otherwise, he wouldn’t have come back.

While everyone marveled at Yu Qingyi’s methods, inside the vine cage, Yang Zhenshan and Wang He tangled for dozens of rounds, Wang He unable to match Yang Zhenshan, ultimately defeated.

With Yang Zhenshan’s cultivation, it was quite easy to defeat Wang He, but he did not go all out, nor did he use Dao Intent, only using the mysterious characteristics of Innate True Qi and the subtleties of the micro to tangle with Wang He.

This was not Yang Zhenshan being arrogant on purpose, but wanting to practice his understanding of the mysterious and the micro through actual combat.

The mystery is a characteristic of Innate True Qi, actually having a form very similar to Dao Intent, it can even be said that the mystery is a diluted version of Dao Intent, it’s just that the mystery mainly manifests in the transformation of Innate True Qi’s external form, while Dao Intent is the extension of a martial artist’s spirit, mindset, and will.

And the micro is reflected in the subtle control of Innate True Qi, in fact, many of its methods can also be applied to Dao Intent.

Mystery, micro, and Dao Intent have many things in common and are complementary to each other.

Opportunities to spar with Innate Martial Artists are rare, Yang Zhenshan finally found a decent opponent, so naturally he wanted to seize the chance to refine his insights.

Actually, in terms of mystery and micro, he’s really not stronger than Wang He, even weaker than Wang He.

Just after dozens of tangles, Yang Zhenshan gained quite a few new insights.

Unfortunately, Wang He only had that much ability, even if Yang Zhenshan did not use Dao Intent, Wang He could only persist for dozens of rounds under his spear.

The long spear swung around, firmly striking Wang He’s chest and abdomen, Wang He couldn’t help but spit blood, then the whole person slammed into the vine cage like a cannonball.

Yang Zhenshan leaped out, and the next moment, the sharp spear light was already at Wang He’s throat.

Wang He’s pupils suddenly shrank, “Lord Yang, I lost!”

He admitted his defeat, although he merely said a simple sentence of losing, but actually it represented his concession.

The concession was naturally to survive, and survival was naturally to find a better future for himself and his descendants on the side of the Yang family.

Wang He had his own pride, so there were some words he wouldn’t say outright, but Yang Zhenshan could understand the meaning within.
