Cultivation Begins From The Desert

Chapter 78: A Clear Conscience (Part 1)

The boundless sand sea, under the nameless sand dunes.

But Zhou Yang hid under the sand dunes to recuperate and recover, naturally he didn't know how much worry he had brought to his family by hiding.

There are no spiritual veins here in the sand dunes. To restore his mana, he can only absorb the spiritual power in the spirit stones and refine them into mana. This speed cannot be compared with the third-order spiritual veins.

If it is on the third-level spiritual vein, he can recover all his mana in just one day, but if he absorbs the lower-grade spirit stones, he can't succeed without a day or two of effort.

But mana recovery is just a trivial matter, even if it takes a little more time, it's nothing.

For Zhou Yang, the most uncomfortable thing is the problem that the loss of essence and blood cannot be recovered.

He used the "Blood Escape Technique" to escape, and consumed more than 20% of his blood essence in one fell swoop, while taking the "Purple Jade Buxin Pill" only made up for less than 10%.

Now that more than 10% of blood wasted has become the source of his discomfort.

It must be known that essence and blood are the foundation of monks, and damage to essence and blood will affect all aspects.

The most intuitive expression is that Zhou Yang's original handsome and handsome image, due to the excessive consumption of blood, has now directly turned into a pale and sluggish image of a sick scholar. Anyone who looks at him can know that this person has a physical illness.

The lost essence and blood cannot be replenished in a day, and his cultivation base cannot be improved by a single day, and at the same time, he can no longer engage in intense and long-term fighting. It is best not to do anything that consumes mana.

Otherwise, once the injury is affected by the excessive consumption of mana and the vitality is lost, it will be more difficult to make up for it in the future, and it may even leave an injury that cannot be healed in a lifetime.

Originally, at this time, the best way to deal with it was to go back to your own cave, close the cave and recuperate for a few years to slowly recover.

It's a pity that for him now, this condition is not realistic at all.

The sand dune has no spiritual veins, so it is not a place to recuperate at all, and he dare not enter a deep retreat state in such a place without any formation protection.

Therefore, his original plan was to stay temporarily for two days to recover his mana, and then return to the Baisha River Oasis to find ways to restore his mana.

It's just that he didn't expect at all that Chen Pingzhi, who abandoned him and ran away, did not escape his life in the end, and died in the vast sea of ​​sand.

So when the ancestor of the Chen family cast the "Moving Heaven and Earth Searching Curse" and led Zhou Xuanhao to the sky over the sand dunes where he was hiding, he was startled by the majestic aura of the cultivator Zi Fuqi, and thought it was the sand dunes. The master of the Zifu period among the bandits came after him, his already pale face turned pale again in an instant, and despair appeared in his eyes.

Then, just as he was about to risk his life with a desperate face and cast the "Blood Escape Technique" to escape again, the shout of his father Zhou Xuanzhen reached his ears in time.

"Where is my son Zhou Yang? Weifu came to you, come out and meet Weifu!"

Is it father's voice?

In the underground secret room, Zhou Yang, who was casting a spell, shook his hands, almost thinking that he had an auditory hallucination due to the loss of essence and blood.

It wasn't until later that he heard Zhou Xuanzhen's shouts again and again that he was sure that he had heard correctly, and immediately escaped from the underground secret room and came to the ground in surprise and joy.

When he got to the ground, he saw the ancestor of the Chen family and his father Zhou Xuanhao standing with their swords hanging in the sky. Zhou Yang raised his heart and put it back into his stomach.

"Junior Zhou Yang, I met Senior Chen."

Zhou Yang didn't dare to be rude, so he could only bow his hands and salute him first, and then he saluted to his father Zhou Xuanhao who was looking at his father with an excited and excited expression: " The child has seen the father."

He is very courteous, even if the ancestor of the Chen family is in a bad mood right now, he doesn't want to get angry directly, so he can only look at him with a straight face and ask: "These customary etiquettes will be avoided, the old man asks you, you and Pingzhi You came out to explore together, why are you alone here now? What happened during your expedition?"

Zhou Xuanzhen who was at the side moved his lips when he heard him ask this question, as if he wanted to say something through sound transmission, but a huge power of spiritual consciousness directly isolated him.

Needless to say, this is obviously the ancestor of the Chen family who took action to prevent the possibility of him colluding with Zhou Yang.

Zhou Yang was not the person involved in this kind of situation at the level of spiritual consciousness, and he couldn't find anything, not to mention that there was nothing difficult to answer about the questions of the ancestors of the Chen family.

What's more, he also had resentment for Chen Pingzhi leaving him to run away alone. Now that the ancestor of the Chen family asked about it, don't blame him for complaining.

Immediately, he started talking about how the two of them discovered the "Thousand Machine Cave", how they fought against the puppet beasts, how they distributed the harvest in the cave, and how Chen Pingzhi asked for help like himself after being attacked by someone, and how he greeted him afterwards. Without saying a word, he left the matter of his escape, and told everything in detail.

He asked himself that he did not feel sorry for Chen Pingzhi in this expedition, so when he said these words, there was no hesitation or hesitation, it can be said that it was done in one go, without any false elements.

However, he only said that Chen Pingzhi left him and ran away alone. He didn't say much about how he fought against the two bandits and how he used the "blood escape technique" to escape.

While the ancestor of the Chen family listened to his narration, his face did not change at all, only when Zhou Yang said that Chen Pingzhi left him and ran away alone, his eyes moved slightly, and a trace of anger flashed in his eyes.

After Zhou Yang finished speaking, he didn't say anything, but Zhou Xuanzhen, who had also heard Zhou Yang's narration, shouted anxiously for his son: "Senior Chen, you heard it all, Yang'er absolutely did not do anything wrong. Any matter of being sorry to Senior Pingzhi, or the fall of Senior Pingzhi, has nothing to do with him!"

Chen Pingzhi is dead!

Zhou Yang's face was startled, he finally knew why the ancestor of the Chen family appeared here, and then his face suddenly became ugly.

If Chen Pingzhi was still alive, what he just said was enough to explain to the Chen family.

But Chen Pingzhi died!

With Chen Pingzhi's death, even if the ancestors of the Chen family believed that what he just said was not false, he would definitely not be kind like this.

Sure enough, after hearing Zhou Xuanhao's grievances for Zhou Yang, the ancestor of the Chen family couldn't help but glared at him, and said in a cold voice: "The old man is not deaf, and he can still hear clearly, there is no need for you, a junior, to teach this old man work!"

Zhou Xuanhao was so frightened by his stare that he trembled all over. He quickly lowered his flying sword to the ground and bowed deeply, saying: "Your junior dare not. Just now this junior recklessly offended senior. Please calm down, senior."

Seeing this, Zhou Yang was also shocked, and couldn't help but blurted out loudly: "Senior Chen, one person does things and one person is in charge. This matter has nothing to do with my father. You want to investigate the matter of Senior Pingzhi's fall. This junior can fully cooperate. Please don't implicate the younger generation's family."

"Heh, you father and son are deeply affectionate. If you say this, it seems that the old man is unkind and bullying the younger with the big!" The ancestor of the Chen family sneered, and there was a trace of annoyance in his words.

What's the matter?

A Foundation Establishment cultivator died in their Chen family, and they became an unreasonable party?

"The juniors dare not!"

Zhou Xuanhao and Zhou Yang's father and son's heart skipped a beat, and they lowered their heads deeply, not daring to say another word.

The anger of the cultivators in the Purple Mansion Period was not something they could bear. If they really angered the ancestors of the Chen family, they would definitely not be as good as the two of them.

Fortunately, the ancestor of the Chen family was a late-stage cultivator of the Zifu, and had practiced for hundreds of years, so he still had the ability to control himself.

Seeing that the two of them admitted their mistakes and gave in, he didn't pursue the two people's rude words just now, but looked at Zhou Yang sharply and asked sharply, "Boy Zhou, let me ask you, you said that Chen Pingzhi left you alone. Escaping, do you have any proof? And why didn’t you finish talking just now? Why did you hide your escape?”

prove?

Who can prove it to himself?

Bandits?

Zhou Yang's face turned bitter, and he couldn't answer the question of the ancestor of the Chen family.

In fact, both the ancestor of the Chen family and him knew that it was impossible for witnesses to testify in this kind of matter.

It's just that if that matter was brought up by the ancestor of the Chen family, it would be equivalent to confirming what the other party said earlier, and it would be suspected of bullying the small by the big, so the other party would use this method to imply that he raised it himself.

But for him, once he brought up that matter, it means that his privacy and his secrets may be exposed to others. This is very difficult for him to accept, and few immortal cultivators can accept it. thing.

He didn't want to answer, but the ancestor of the Chen family wouldn't watch him procrastinate like this, so he couldn't help asking: "What? Are you unwilling to answer the old man, or are you making up what you said earlier?"

"Old ancestor..." Zhou Xuanhao looked at Zhou Yang who bowed his head and said nothing, and couldn't help saying a few words to defend his son, but it was a pity that he was overwhelmed by the majestic aura emanating from the old ancestor of the Chen family. He choked back abruptly.

"Did the old man let you speak?"

The ancestor of the Chen family glanced at him sharply, and the warning was already obvious.

Zhou Xuanhao, a majestic foundation-builder, didn't dare to take a breath at this time, so he could only lower his head in despondency, not daring to say another word.

Seeing this scene, Zhou Yang was shocked and angry. How could he want to see his father humiliated for himself again?

He looked up at the ancestor of the Chen family with a blushing face, and said in a resolute tone: "Why is the ancestor so aggressive? You want the junior to provide witness evidence, but the junior can't do it, but the junior can go back to the Baisha River Oasis with the ancestor , and then in front of the seniors of Huang Shamen, accept the interrogation of the ancestor [Question of the Mind] to prove that the words of the younger generation are true and have a clear conscience!"

"Okay, this is what you said yourself, don't go back on your word when the time comes!"

The ancestor of the Chen family took a deep look at him, but this time he didn't care about his verbal confrontation any more.

He has been persecuting people like this, can't they make people feel a little bit emotional?

As long as he can achieve his goal, he still doesn't care about this little detail.
