Eternal Heart

Chapter 1359: Murong Family

"Is it a demigod? Or..."

The minimum standard for mastering the Principles is being a demigod.

As for a god, the Sword Star Demigod dismissed this speculation.

In the entire Human Race, there are just a few in the Heavenly Union Realm.

He hadn’t heard of when the Heavenly Martial Sect acquired another person in the Heavenly Union Realm.

"Could it be a loose cultivator demigod? The Heavenly Martial Sect harboring this demigod secretly to win him over?"

The Sword Star Demigod speculated.

If this were true, the Heavenly Martial Sect indulges this demigod, seriously injuring his grandson, as if not taking the Murong Family seriously.

But the Sword Star Demigod couldn’t confront the Heavenly Martial Sect, so he could only remain here, forcing the person hiding in the Cave Mansion to come out.

"Who are you? Please come out and resolve this matter clearly; the Murong Family is not unreasonable."

The overwhelming presence of the Sword Star Demigod vanished, becoming calm.

"Grandfather? Why are you?"

Murong Can Guang was slightly surprised, how did the Sword Star Demigod’s tone become one of talking among peers.

Guan Hongri was also pondering. Both were young sect masters, so why was Ye Luofeng’s Cave Mansion Barrier so formidable, the difference in treatment was too vast.

Their level was too low to detect the power of the Principle level.

"Shut up, the person who injured you is very likely a demigod!"

The Sword Star Demigod reprimanded.

Demigod?

Murong Can Guang and Guan Hongri were both shocked, cold sweat emerging.

To offend a demigod and still be alive was already a blessing.

Now it seems that Chen Yu was indeed courteous back then, if they had offended a demigod outside, the result might have been death.

"However, even if it’s a demigod, they cannot attack members of the Murong Family at will. Everyone would prefer a peaceful resolution, and no one wishes to make enemies with the Murong Family."

The Sword Star Demigod said confidently.

At the next moment, a rare response came from within the Cave Mansion: "Roll as far as you can."

The atmosphere on-site suddenly froze, and the Sword Star Demigod’s face became unpleasant.

The other party injured his grandson first, yet was so arrogant and rude.

"Have you thought it through, going against the Murong Family?"

"You can hide for a while, but not for a lifetime, this account will be settled sooner or later!"

The Sword Star Demigod shouted angrily.

He had decided that if he couldn’t force Chen Yu out today, he would return to the clan and ask the Heavenly Union Realm Ancestor to come and reason with the Heavenly Martial Sect.

He didn’t believe that the Heavenly Martial Sect would still feign ignorance then, unless the Heavenly Martial Sect truly intended to oppose the Murong Family.

"Now that you mention it, I remembered there’s an account I haven’t settled with the Murong Family!"

Chen Yu recalled something.

Last time while visiting the Lin Family, on his way back to the Heavenly Martial Sect, he was intercepted and assassinated by several Emperor Xuanming’s subordinates.

Among them was an old man who seemed to be connected to an elder of the Murong Family.

If Chen Yu hadn’t been breaking through to the Xuanming Realm then, directly reaching mid Xuanming, he might have been caught by those people.

"Nonsense, what are you talking about?"

The Sword Star Demigod’s anger flared.

Now it was the Murong Family coming to settle accounts, how did it turn into the other party coming to settle accounts with the Murong Family.

He immediately ignited his holy power, fully activating the "Star Nebula Sword Formation," attempting to cut through the Array Barrier and drag out the scoundrel who spoke those words.

However, that array was as solid as a rock, not causing any damage, but instead, his sword array continued to disintegrate, its power diminishing.

"In two months, I will visit the Murong Family!"

Chen Yu’s cold voice came out.

The Sword Star Demigod was shocked, this voice resounded like heavenly thunder in his mind, containing a celestial power that could not be desecrated!

This feeling, could the other party not be a demigod, but a god?

Buzz! Boom!

The Array Barrier burst out with bright silver space power, intermingled with deep blue water flows, forming a layer of silver-blue storm.

The Sword Star Demigod’s trump card, the Star Nebula Sword Array, was instantly shattered and dissipated.

Then, the silver-blue storm spread outward.

Everything touched liquefied into water instantly, merging into the silver-blue storm.

This scene filled Murong Can Guang and Guan Hongri with horror.

"Retreat!"

The Sword Star Demigod was also shocked, and with Murong Can Guang, retreated backward quickly.

This silver-blue storm was too terrifying, instantly breaking his Star Nebula Sword Array, if it hit him, he might too meet his end here.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

The three of them retreated rapidly amid the dire crisis!

Fortunately, the silver-blue storm soon stopped expanding, gradually fading away.

At this moment, the three Sword Star Demigod’s tense nerves only slightly relaxed.

Coming back to his senses, the Sword Star Demigod found his back drenched in cold sweat.

"Can Guang, go back!"

The Sword Star Demigod glanced at the Cave Mansion enveloped by the barrier, but did not dare to approach it again, the opponent’s methods were too astonishing, and there was also an Array Barrier, he could not break through it.

"The Murong Family awaits your distinguished presence, humph!"

Before leaving, the Sword Star Demigod snorted coldly.

The two from the Murong Family left, and Guan Hongri also immediately retreated.

Even a demigod was forced to retreat, returning with no success. He now truly regretted being involved in all this.

The forbidden valley.

In an ordinary courtyard, a white-haired old man and a middle-aged man in green were quietly playing chess.

"I brought you trouble again."

The middle-aged man in blue smiled lightly.

"Do you need help? The Murong Family should also have two Heavenly Union Realm experts."

The gray-haired old man spoke calmly.

"There’s no need for help. If we can’t even handle a Murong Family, our father and son going out to temper ourselves might as well be seeking our own death."

The middle-aged man in blue joked.

"Ah, back then I was sure you would become a leading figure of the Human Race, guiding us to a higher level. It’s a pity you encountered her..."

The gray-haired old man sighed.

Reflecting on the past, there are always many regrets and sorrows.

Nowadays, the Human Race only occupies a tiny piece of the main world and must constantly guard against many foreign enemies.

The Dead Spirit Desert has been completely occupied by the Silver Soul Clan. Both sides have temporarily ceased fighting, but this is only the calm before the storm.

If the Human Race lacks sufficiently powerful Heavenly Union Realm experts, they will eventually fade from history.

Meng Qingyun was once the one favored by the gray-haired old man.

Now, Meng Qingyun has wasted too much time, lost potential, suffered severe injuries, and his cultivation has regressed by a whole realm.

"I don’t find it regretful. What I couldn’t achieve, Yu’er definitely can, and even better."

The middle-aged man in blue affirmed confidently.

Within the cave mansion.

Chen Yu successfully comprehended the Water Principle, having just tested it slightly, not daring to try further.

To Chen Yu, the Sword Star Demigod was too weak; many things couldn’t be tested on him.

In two months, at the Murong Family, there might be an opportunity to try.

Originally, Chen Yu had no plan to visit the Murong Family.

But the repeated provocations from the Murong Family reminded Chen Yu of an old score he intended to settle.

He also needed to prevent the Murong Family from continuing to bother Ye Luofeng about a marriage alliance after he left.

Having successfully comprehended the Water Principle, Chen Yu began studying the Wood Principle. However, without the appropriate Law Crystal, he could only rely on some ordinary materials to comprehend it by himself.

As a result, his cultivation efficiency greatly decreased.

This is why each step forward in the Heavenly Union Realm requires a long time.

Cultivation levels are too high, and resources suitable for this level increasingly scarce.

Fortunately, Chen Yu’s understanding of laws is rapid, and in terms of cultivation, he possesses the Chaos Body, one of the best physiques for cultivation in the world.

Time passed, and nearly two months elapsed.

Chen Yu’s act of repelling the demigod occurred in the core area of the sect, inhabited only by a few young sect masters and a few elders.

Additionally, the Heavenly Martial Sect had sealed off information, so not many people knew about it.

At most, they knew that the Sword Star Demigod suddenly descended upon Martial God Mountain, and subsequently left hurriedly with Murong Can Guang.

One day, Chen Yu concluded his cultivation.

His Wood Essence had been perfected, just a step away from advancing to the level of Law.

Bidding farewell to Ye Luofeng, Chen Yu quietly left Martial God Mountain, meeting with Meng Qingyun at the foot of the mountain, then heading to the Murong Family.

...

The Murong Family, one of the two Divine Realm Families among the Human Race, is a dominant existence among the Human Race.

Within an ancient and imposing hall.

The powerful figures of the Murong Family, who usually secluded themselves for arduous cultivation, appeared one by one.

"I say, are we making a mountain out of a molehill? That person said they’re coming for a visit, perhaps to apologize and express their remorse?"

"According to the Sword Star Demigod, the other party doesn’t seem like they’re coming to apologize, but rather to knock some sense into our Murong Family!"

The higher-ups of the Murong Family conversed.

"Hehe, it seems our Murong Family has been too low-key recently, and now every cat and dog dares to come challenge us."

An old man with a single eye laughed and then looked towards the Sword Star Demigod, saying, "Murong Xing, did that kid fool you? The two-month deadline has passed, yet the person is nowhere to be seen?"

As soon as the one-eyed old man spoke, the scene fell silent.

Because he was the second demigod of the Murong Family, and they didn’t get along well, leading to various factions within the Murong Family.

Moreover, most clansmen did not quite believe the Sword Star Demigod’s words.

The Sword Star Demigod kept his eyes closed and remained silent.

To be honest, he wasn’t sure if Chen Yu was truly coming or just bluffing him.

"Haha, I think someone came back empty-handed, lost face, and made up such a lie!"

"Even the Sky Martial Sect Master, Sikong Wanli, wouldn’t dare to come to the Murong Family to settle accounts, yet you, Murong Xing, randomly made up an unknown person to deceive us."

The one-eyed old man continued to taunt the Sword Star Demigod.

Just at this moment.

"Report!"

"A man in black appeared two hundred miles outside the family!"

A member of the Murong Clan knelt outside the hall.

In response to an outsider’s provocation, the Murong Family was on high alert, activating their array and various safeguards.

Thus, as soon as Chen Yu neared the Murong Family, the news arrived.

The atmosphere in the hall suddenly changed, with numerous powerful and terrifying auras accompanied by astounding Sword Intent surging forth.

"I want to see for myself who is so audacious to challenge the Murong Family’s authority."

The one-eyed old man immediately stood up, his pupils emitting a ghostly black cold gleam.

"Report!"

"A man in black has intruded into the family territory, claiming he came to settle accounts!"

Upon receiving this news, all the high-ups in the hall were astonished.

Wasn’t he just two hundred miles away? How did he get here so quickly?

Was the first report delayed?

While everyone was puzzled,

A black-clad man with a tall build, hands behind his back, strolled in from the entrance of the hall as if leisurely touring a famous historical site.
