Chapter 20: Taking the Unconventional Path?

“You… hello… brother Zhang Yue.”

Zhang Xue’er greeted him symbolically, but regretted her words as soon as she said it.

A person who was that arrogant in a large sect was so angry that even Zhang Yang could not protect her.

“And you are Zhang Yang, right? Mother’s hope is always on her lips.”

Zhang Yue turned his head and looked at Zhang Yang. He looked really good and very strong.

He closed his eyes slightly and said admiringly, “You are indeed the genius mentioned by our mother.”

Zhang Yue envied Zhang Yang that his family cared so much about him.

Zhang Yang was unlike him where he only lived in the small Heavenly Gate sect and could only command such petty people who bullied others.

“Brother, I took the liberty to enter your territory.”

Zhang Yang secretly opened his data table while Zhang Yue was talking.

He found that although Zhang Yue was a relatively ordinary cultivator, he was still a person who had cultivated for more than ten years.

His data exceeded his by hundreds in all aspects.

After confirming the look in his eyes, he found that he was someone that he could not defeat for the time being.

“It’s okay. I don’t care about this. It’s such a big piece of territory anyway.”

Zhang Yue opened his claws and pointed at the boundary that could be seen.

He had been in the heavenly faction for dozens of years and had made a lot of contributions to the sect. Therefore, the sect had specially approved a relatively desolate immortal mountain as his territory. He had also become an honorary elder.

If he could, he did not want to live in such a boring heavenly faction.

However, his talent was destined to be mediocre. Perhaps he would have to cultivate for hundreds of years before he had the capital to establish his own sect.

Zhang Xue’er blinked and said enviously, “No, brother Zhang Yue. I’m so envious that you have this piece of land.”

Zhang Xue’er’s words came from her heart. If it was possible, she also wanted this small piece of land to slowly develop.

“Come on. No one will like this place, including myself.”

Zhang Yue rolled his eyes speechlessly. As the owner, he did not like this place, let alone others.

“By the way, what are you guys here for?” Zhang Yue asked curiously.

In a place like this, no one would want to snatch this place, right?

Even if they wanted to snatch it, at a glance, Zhang Yang and Zhang Xue’er’s strength would not be able to defeat his.

“Actually, we were going to the main peak training grounds, and we passed by here on the way,” Zhang Yang explained.

“Main peak training ground?! Oh my god, my dear brothers and sisters, why are you guys going there, hahaha!”

Zhang Yue opened his big mouth and laughed at the sky, as if he was listening to the funniest joke in the world.

“Eh… brother Zhang Yue, what are you laughing at?”

Zhang Xue’er was a little confused. Was the main peak training ground that funny?

“Hahaha! That’s the grave of cultivators below the intermediate level. With such small arms and legs, going there is simply courting death.

“Which idiot told you to go to the main peak training ground? You should know that even I don’t dare to go there, haha.”

Zhang Yue was laughing at the ignorance of Zhang Yang and the others.

Zhang Yang said coldly, “Li Zhe.”

“Cough, cough, cough!” Zhang Yue hurriedly stopped laughing and coughed. He said in disbelief, “Did he really ask you to go there?”

“Yes.” Zhang Yang nodded.

Gulp… gulp…

Zhang Yue swallowed his saliva. Fortunately, Zhang Zhe did not know about the laughter just now. Otherwise, he would definitely skin him alive.

“Since it’s him, then I have nothing to say. I wish you guys all the best in surviving.”

Zhang Yue did not continue chatting with Zhang Yang as he was now going to enjoy dinner.

“Wait for me, brother!” Zhang Yang called out to Zhang Yue.

Zhang Xue’er’s face was full of confusion. Why was her brother calling out to Zhang Yue at this time?

“What’s wrong?”

Zhang Yue stopped mid-air and turned his head to ask, a little puzzled, “Actually, brother, I just wanted to tell you to not make things difficult for the boy called Hu Tao.”

Zhang Yang went straight to the point.

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhang Yue’s gaze became unfriendly. He said, “Brother, you should know the price of snatching food from the giant dragon’s mouth.”

“Of course I know, but… I have a way. You have to let him go,” Zhang Yang said confidently.

After hearing this, Zhang Yue almost laughed out of anger. “Oh, really? Then let me try.”

Zhang Xue’er’s eyes widened. Did her brother have a trump card that he did not show?

Just as everyone was watching, Zhang Yue spoke.

“Hmph! If you don’t let him off, I will tell him what you said to elder Li Zhe today!”

Zhang Xue’er was speechless.

Zhang Yue screamed internally, ‘You! You…’

Zhang Yue’s eyes widened, but he did not know what to say. It seemed like he was used by the other party.

‘As expected of my brother.’ Zhang Xue’er was speechless in her heart.

“How about this? Let Sun Tao go, and I won’t tell elder Li Zhe about this matter.”

Zhang Yang had grasped Zhang Yue’s personality and temper.

Zhang Yue was so angry that he almost exploded. He did not expect his younger brother to be that despicable!

Zhang Yue, who was about to compromise, suddenly thought that elder Li Zhe had gone to take revenge.

Even if Zhang Yang wanted to complain, he had no way of passing the news to elder Li Zhe.

Zhang Yue raised his head and said confidently, “Zhang Yang, elder Li Zhe is out right now. It seems like he can’t hear your voice. Also, what makes you think that he will believe this newcomer?”

He was almost done for by this kid.

“Really? But do you know that I saved him? In a sense, I am his benefactor.”

“He will believe me as long as I say it casually.”

“At that time, with Grand Elder Sun Zhe’s character of always repaying kindness and taking revenge, it would only take a breath for him to come here to look for you.”

Zhang Yue chuckled. Fortunately, him and Zhang Zhe still had this friendship.

“Ah?”

Zhang Xue’er’s head was a little muddled. Was this how a life-saving grace was used?

“You are really too despicable, Zhang Yang!” Zhang Yue was so angry that he scratched his ears and cheeks.

How could Grand Elder Sun Zhe have such a cheap life-saving benefactor? Although understandably he did not discriminate against the weak.

However, they were clearly not strong. Even if they had outstanding talent, they were destined to be inferior amongst the strong. Still, he did not expect them to actually save the powerful Grand Elder Sun Zhe.

After a while, Zhang Yue was like a deflated balloon. He said, “Forget it. I’ll let him go.”

“Thank you, brother.”

Zhang Yang especially emphasized the word ‘brother’.

Zhang Yue said in annoyance, “Get lost quickly. I won’t forgive the rest easily!”

These new disciples were very precious free labor for Zhang Yue.

Now, because of Zhang Yang’s threat, they were easily forgiven. The prestige that they had painstakingly built up was easily shattered. Zhang Yue’s heart was bleeding.

He was so poor that he could not even open the pot. This younger brother of his did not even let his older brother off the hook.

Looking at the two brothers who were playing around, the corner of Zhang Xue’er’s mouth twitched. Brother Zhang Yang was too evil.

Brother Zhang Yue’s brain was not quite right. His strength was obvious, yet he still had to compromise with Zhang Yang.

‘You know very well that Grand Elder Li Zhe will definitely not trouble Zhang Xue for such trivial matters.’
