Chapter 624: Chapter 623: Can You Withstand My Fist?

“My father is the Peak Master of Great Skies Peak.

Are you sure you want to fight?” Xu Zimei looked at Zhang Erhe and inquired.

“You are Lin Qiu, Young Master Lin?” Zhang Erhe’s response was instantaneous.

He then laughed.

“Your brother is still a guest in my residence.

This is like a flood washing over the Dragon King’s Temple.”
“He is him, I am me.

Still want to fight?” Xu Zimei asked.

“No more fighting, we are all fellow sect members.

There is nothing that can’t be sorted out,” Zhang Erhe said with a smile.

He turned to Zhang Zehao and instructed, “Hao’er, aren’t you going to pay your respects to your Senior Brother Lin?”
“I’ve seen Senior Brother Lin,” Zhang Zehao was very straightforward, directly clasping his hand and saying so.

Looking at Xu Zimei’s indifferent attitude, Zhang Erhe smiled and said, “Then I won’t disturb Young Master Lin any longer, and you are also welcome to visit my residence.”
Watching Zhang Zehao and his group leave, Jiang Changsheng snorted coldly.

He commented, “They bully the weak and fear the strong.”
“This person is very calculating.

I was actually hoping he would really fight,” Xu Zimei shook his head.

After saying goodbye to Chu Shanhe and his sister, he and Jiang Changsheng got ready to go to Qingyue Pool to take a look.

After Zhang Erhe and party left, Zhang Zehao clearly looked dissatisfied and asked, “Father, why are you afraid of him?

He’s just useless trash, and besides, we don’t rely on his Great Skies Peak.

What can he do to you?”
“You don’t understand; although you will join the Nine Heavens Imperial Sect in the future, we have always been people of Green Skies Peak.

The game among the higher-ups is not that simple.

There’s no need to compete with others over trivial matters,” Zhang Erhe said, contemplatively.

He shook his head slightly and then looked at the elder beside him, asking, “Elder Qing, what do you think?”
“This is as far as you’ll go in this life.

Being the City Lord of Huohuang City is already your peak.

Live your current life well, there’s no need to strive for too much,” the elder spoke calmly.

Qingyue Pool was located ten miles outside of Huohuang City.

It was the only dangerous area around.

It is said that a Green Jiao Dragon with a thousand years of cultivation lived here, coiling around the area.

Hundreds of years ago, it would often eat passersby, but it has been much quieter in recent years.

When Xu Zimei and Jiang Changsheng had been walking for half a day and arrived here,
they found Qingyue Pool was located within a small stretch of forest.

This small piece of the forest had grown surrounding the Qingyue Pool.

The summer had already come, and the lush forest was densely packed with branches and leaves.

The area was seldom ventured by people; not even a single bird could be seen, making the surroundings exceptionally quiet, with only the sun scorching the land.

“Senior Brother, let’s just go.

There’s nothing worth seeing here,” Jiang Changsheng said on the side.

“What are you afraid of, so cowardly?” Xu Zimei turned his head and said.

“I’m not being cowardly, I’m being prudent,” Jiang Changsheng retorted.

“Do you know why I’m called ‘Changsheng’?

It’s because I want to fulfill my grandfather’s wish and live a good life.”
“Nothing will happen to you with me,” Xu Zimei waved his hand and was the first to step into the forest.

The forest was quiet, and even the temperature felt much cooler.

Just as they entered the forest, Xu Zimei heard the sound of flowing water not far away.

The two headed towards the sound of the water, and before long, they saw a pool.

The pool was of moderate size, approximately a few dozen square meters, with its blue-green water crystal clear to the bottom.

The stones on the bottom were as smooth and clean as river pebbles.

At the center of the pool, a tree grew.

An old Sky-reaching Great Tree with lush branches and leaves, it looked very ancient.

“Go to the front of the pool and call out a few times to see if the Green Jiao comes out,” Xu Zimei said to Jiang Changsheng.

“Didn’t we agree to just look?

What do you want with calling it out?” Jiang Changsheng said anxiously.

Xu Zimei laughed and picked up a huge stone from the side, hurling it directly toward the bottom of the pool.

With a “bang,” a burst of spray erupted from beneath the water.

As the spray fell back, the bottom of the pool remained calm and serene, without a ripple spreading across it.

“Is the Green Jiao not there?” Jiang Changsheng said doubtfully.

“I’m afraid it just doesn’t want to bother with us,” Xu Zimei laughed.

This time, he picked up a stone, not to throw it into the pool but at the Sky-reaching Great Tree in the middle of the water.

With a “boom,” as soon as the stone flew past, it was shattered in midair by a tail.

Then, a deafening dragon’s roar came from the bottom of the pool, and Qingyue Pool exploded completely.

The water flowed upwards, splashing a hundred meters high.

“Senior Brother, we’re done for,” Jiang Changsheng said in a panicked voice, trying to flee.

But the splashing water turned into arrows, shooting violently towards him.

He could only dodge and defend passively, with no chance of escape.

Xu Zimei looked up at the sky to see a huge creature soaring overhead.

It was a very pure Jiao Dragon, its body nearly a hundred meters long.

Its tail was bare, its body deep green, with scales aligned in neat rows across its form.

More terrifying was that the Jiao Dragon had two heads, with sharp, pointed muzzles, and hair at the neck extending to the top of the heads.

Its eyes were very gloomy, both heads had their mouths wide open, spewing wind and thunder.

Thunderbolts swirled around it.

“Humans, you are courting death!”
The Jiao Dragon spat human words, its voice cold.

“Senior Brother, you’ve really done me in,” Jiang Changsheng said in despair.

“Changsheng, do you remember what you told me when you descended the mountain?” Xu Zimei looked at the Jiao Dragon above with a deep gaze, smiling as he asked.

Seeing Xu Zimei facing danger without panic, utterly composed,
Jiang Changsheng always felt his Senior Brother seemed to have changed.

But he couldn’t quite pinpoint the change, as if the atmosphere around him was like that of a different person.

“What, what did I say?” Jiang Changsheng stuttered.

“Let me remind you,” Xu Zimei said indifferently.

“Life is like a play, you mustn’t always believe what your eyes see.”
“Senior Brother, what do you mean?” Jiang Changsheng asked in amazement.

As soon as his words fell, an extremely strong aura emanated from Xu Zimei.

Right after, Xu Zimei’s figure shot up at a speed too fast for the naked eye to catch.

By the time Jiang Changsheng realized what was happening, the Green Jiao’s huge body had been pulled down from the sky, slamming heavily onto the ground.

With a “boom,” as if an earthquake of magnitude ten had struck, a miserable dragon’s roar sounded, and the ground shook violently.

Numerous cracks opened right underfoot.

The Green Jiao was smashed into the ground, its flesh a bloody blur, as Xu Zimei grabbed the dragon’s tail and began to swing it around in 360-degree arcs.

Successive booming explosions sounded one after another.

By the time Jiang Changsheng came to his senses, he saw Xu Zimei gripping the Green Jiao’s neck, pinning it to the ground.

No matter how it resisted, it couldn’t break free.

“Se-Senior Brother,” Jiang Changsheng called out, his eyes bulging and voice stuttering.

“In the Eternal Ancient Four Domains, countless Talented Disciples exist.

I ask, can the talents of this world withstand my fist?”
As his words fell, that fist, with an overwhelming might, smashed toward the Green Jiao’s head.
