Chapter 79: Chapter 79
"Zhou Feng!" Zhou Peng was a little surprised. The events of three years ago were still vivid in his mind. At that time, because of Zhou Kuang's words, Zhou Zhantian had punished him to reflect on his mistakes at the back cliff for three years. Staying at the back cliff for three years was like a death sentence. People who were exiled here were basically abandoned by the Zhou family. It was a miracle to survive in such a harsh environment. Looking at Zhou Feng again, his glabella was like a sword, and his eyes were bright. His whole body was like a completely new person compared to three years ago, and his strength had improved a lot. Seeing Zhou Peng, Zhou Feng withdrew his fist and was also greatly shocked on his face. He said blankly, "Have you also been punished?" After speaking, Zhou Feng smiled self - deprecatingly. Who among the Zhou family came to the back cliff without being punished? No one in the Zhou family was willing to step on this 'Hell Cliff'. He was the only one left alive in these years. With the will in his heart, he survived tenaciously. And now he began to like it here. This place had started his transformation. "The three - year period has arrived. Why haven't you left yet?" Zhou Peng asked in return. Then he put his hands behind his back and looked at the gray sky, lost in thought. The cold wind whistled past like a roaring hungry tiger, causing great pain on the face. At this time, Zhou Peng's heart calmed down inexplicably, enjoying the momentary peace brought by the bone - piercing cold wind. He temporarily suppressed the anger in his chest. With a plain expression on his face, he gently exhaled the stale air in his body and said, "It seems that you are doing well here. You have reached the Spirit - Gathering Realm." Zhou Feng was stunned. He and Zhou Peng were of the same age. But he found that Zhou Peng's back suddenly became extremely great, as if he was a wise old man. A feeling of having great ambitions and looking down on the common people arose spontaneously. Why was this so? He couldn't help but have doubts in his heart. What surprised him most was Zhou Peng's strength. In the past, he thought that the gap between them was not too big. As long as he cultivated hard, he would surely catch up in the future. Now, an insurmountable gap arose in his heart for no reason. The gap in strength was like this gap, and he couldn't cross it at all. "What is your cultivation level... what is your cultivation level at?" Zhou Feng was stunned for a moment and still asked. He had been taking Zhou Peng as his goal for three years. When he stepped into the Spirit - Gathering Realm, he thought that he had surpassed Zhou Peng. Now it seemed that not only had he not surpassed, but he was even further behind. The difference in momentum was too great. "The ninth level of the Spirit - Gathering Realm." Zhou Peng said faintly while looking into the distance. He asked, "Where did Meng Lei fall off the cliff?" "The ninth level of the Spirit - Gathering Realm, the ninth level of the Spirit - Gathering Realm..." Zhou Feng didn't listen to the latter sentence at all. Hearing the words "the ninth level of the Spirit - Gathering Realm", his heart was extremely shocked, and a self - deprecating smile hung on his face. The self - confidence that he had accumulated was completely shattered and vulnerable. "The gap is getting wider and wider." A bitter feeling arose in Zhou Feng's heart, and his face was full of a sense of helplessness. He thought that by using the power of the cold wind, he had broken through the Spirit - Gathering Realm and had reached the third level of the Spirit - Gathering Realm after one year of hard cultivation. This speed was already against the heavens. He didn't expect that Zhou Peng's cultivation level had reached the ninth level of the Spirit - Gathering Realm. Was he a human? He was completely a monster. Soon, he reacted to the latter sentence of Zhou Peng, and his face was full of bitterness again. He smiled bitterly and said, "I'm sorry. I didn't have the ability to protect him. If I had been strong enough at that time, maybe Meng Lei wouldn't have died." Zhou Peng didn't expect that Zhou Feng would apologize, which surprised him greatly. He said, "Can you tell me the situation at that time?" Zhou Feng looked at Zhou Peng, sat down on the ground, and looked into the distance. There was a faint sense of injustice in his eyes. He narrated the story in detail. When it came to the hateful part, a faint murderous intention and unwillingness were revealed on his face. He clenched his fist tightly, and his expression was gloomy. Zhou Peng listened quietly, trying his best to suppress the anger in his heart. The cold wind pierced into his body and constantly collided with the anger. At this time, it seemed that there was a small universe of ice and fire in his body, constantly erupting and destroying... After a long time, Zhou Feng let out a long sigh and said, "During all this, the clan leader was standing beside coldly watching. It's really chilling." "If he had said just a word for Meng Lei at that time, he wouldn't have been knocked off the cliff by the Great Elder with one palm. What a pity. Alas..." "The Zhou family is completely not the same as before." "Zhou Zhantian is self - willed and narrow - minded. He can't tolerate anyone in the Zhou family being stronger than him. He wants to cover the sky with one hand in the Zhou family, but he can't do it. He is always restricted by the Elder's Pavilion. For the position of the family head, he has to compromise with the Elder's Pavilion, resulting in this tragic incident." "The Zhou family is really ruined." After speaking, Zhou Feng closed his eyes slightly. His heart was like a knife was cutting it. He had cultivated for many years to change the Zhou family. Now thinking about it, how ridiculous he was. With his strength, he couldn't even withstand one move from Zhou Zhantian. What qualifications did he have to change the Zhou family? "By the way, the Yang family in Tianya City seems to attach great importance to Yun Man. They actually took out three crystal cores as betrothal gifts. The Great Elder could step into the Gang - Refining Realm because he swallowed the crystal core. Otherwise, he couldn't have broken through." "Three crystal cores? No wonder." Zhou Peng frowned and thought to himself, "It seems that Zhou Zhantian and Zhou Kuang each got one of the remaining two. The three of them are in cahoots. Zhou Zhantian, Zhou Zhantian, you didn't fulfill the agreement of that year, so that Meng Lei was knocked off the cliff by Zhou Xiangtian, and you just stood by and watched. Don't blame me for being ruthless tomorrow." As soon as this thought came out, the murderous intention was immediately revealed. The cold wind became even colder. Zhou Feng, who had endured the bone - piercing cold wind all year round, couldn't help but shiver. He stared blankly at Zhou Peng, and his heart was greatly shocked. "Go back to the Zhou family." "The Zhou family needs you." Zhou Peng suddenly said. Three years ago, Zhou Feng gave him a good impression at the family invitational tournament. He could bend and stretch, and he would surely achieve great things in the future. He could endure a moment of humiliation and cultivate hard, and he could take revenge on his enemy quickly. This kind of person knew how to hide and knew what he wanted. After more than half an hour of conversation, from his words, Zhou Peng could feel that he wanted to change the Zhou family and was eager to change. Although Zhou Peng himself also wanted to change the Zhou family, he had no time and didn't want to waste time on the Zhou family. For him, the Zhou family was too small, while his goal was too big and too far. After killing Zhou Xiangtian and getting a huge amount of experience and Qi energy points, he knew that the path he was going to take in his life was a path of killing. He had to step on the corpses of countless human - shaped bosses to reach the peak. Long Xiaotian of the Qianji Sect and the sect master of the Wanmo Sect were all super big bosses, and Zhou Peng had to step on their corpses to grow up. The path of killing. This was his future path! Zhou Feng was stunned and smiled bitterly. "Without the order of the clan leader, I can't go back at all. It's useless to go back. I still have to act according to others'. It's meaningless to live. It's better to cultivate and comprehend in this bone - piercing cold wind environment. One day in the future, when I can break through the Gang - Refining Realm and have the strength to change everything, then I'll go out..." "This is for you." Zhou Peng took out the crystal core dropped by Zhou Xiangtian from the space ring, smiled faintly and said, "Zhou Xiangtian is dead. You will be the clan leader of the Zhou family in the future." There was certainty in his tone. Zhou Feng didn't think that Zhou Peng was joking with him at all. Looking at the crystal core, Zhou Feng gritted his teeth and took it carefully and said, "Thank you." This was the second time he said "Thank you" to Zhou Peng, and it was heavier than the last time. "As for Zhou Zhantian, he won't live long. You can rest assured. I gave you the crystal core with the purpose of letting you revitalize the Zhou family and show your talents. The Zhou family needs a person like you." Zhou Peng stood up, with deep eyes. Suddenly, he looked towards the bottomless abyss and shouted loudly, "Meng Lei, you must be alive..." "I believe you are still alive!"
