Zhao Rongye wasn't any important character in this affair; he was just a coward who clung to life out of fear of death back then and remained just as craven now.
The Eternal Youth Spring was controlled by the Yuwen Family, and in fact, Zhao Rongye was doing their bidding.
"What is the current strength of the Yuwen Family Patriarch?"
Han Zheng asked.
"The Yuwen Family Patriarch remains in the Xuan Gang Realm, but his strength is stronger than that of a typical person at this level.
Although the Eternal Spring Water is said to extend one's life, in my view, it does more to keep martial artists hanging on in their last gasps.
Once you consu the Eternal Spring Water, even a drop, don't expect your own strength to advance an inch.
However, after consuming the spring water, one will also possess a kind of corrupt power.
My aged body, with weakened vital energy, is able to defeat that kid, Pei Xiuyuan, relying on this power.
Yuwen Xizhen has consud so much Eternal Spring Water over the years, this accumulated power is definitely stronger than mine."
"What about the other mbers of the Yuwen Family? Have they consud the Eternal Spring Water?"
Zhao Rongye sneered, "No, I'm sure that only Yuwen Xizhen has.
I've known him for decades; I know what kind of person he is.
Selfish, malicious, and ruthless, his heart only contains himself. The entire Yuwen Family is nothing but a tool in his hands.
Such a precious thing as the Eternal Spring, Yuwen Xizhen would not want to share with anyone.
He shared so with only to have work for him and guard against the Demon Cleansing Bureau."
Suddenly recalling sothing, Zhao Rongye hastily said, "If you're preparing to take action against Yuwen Xizhen, then hurry.
The fact that you killed Yue Jingtong just outside Smoke Wave Prefecture has been witnessed by many. Among them, there must be spies for Yuwen Xizhen.
That guy is extrely cautious; once he notices anything wrong, he might choose to flee."
Zhao Rongye had completely given up hope, knowing that his own death was inevitable, so he decided to directly drag Yuwen Xizhen down with him.
Since he was going to die anyway, even in death, he wanted to take soone down with him!
At the sa ti, he also harbored resentnt towards Yuwen Xizhen for failing to kill Han Zheng, which led to his own exposure!
Han Zheng imdiately turned to Pei Xiuyuan and said, "Gather all the Xuanjia Guards from the Demon Cleansing Bureau imdiately and prepare to attack the Yuwen Family."
Then Han Zheng shifted his gaze toward Chen Jiuzhen and the others, "Gentlen, the ti has co to avenge the grievances of the past. Everyone, stop cherishing your power; go all out and annihilate the Yuwen Family!
Afterward, all the spirit fields and mines belonging to the Yuwen Family will be equally divided among you."
"Yes, Mr. Han!"
Everyone bowed and responded in agreent.
Aware of what the Yuwen Family had done in the past, the others naturally could not stand idly by.
Even without Han Zheng, they would have confronted the Yuwen Family over this matter.
Chen Jiuzhen didn't have much to do with the Yuwen Family, but since Han Zheng had shown great favor to his Black Water Gang, whoever Han Zheng wanted dead, Chen Jiuzhen would kill.
Everyone hurried back to marshal their forces, and even the usually slippery Ji Tianhong didn't hold back this ti, directly bringing out all the power of Xuanyuan Cave.
In reality, Ji Tianhong's actual age was not small; he was already over sixty and happened to be born the year before the calamity of the Black Mountain Demon.
His father was a deacon of Xuanyuan Cave back then; the sect decided who would be sent to the Poisonous Flood Dragon Demon Lord by drawing lots, and his father was the unfortunate one chosen.
Having lost his father at a young age, how could Ji Tianhong not seek revenge?
An hour later, the combined forces of the Wen Family, Black Water Gang, Xuanyuan Cave, and Breaking Extre Sect, together with the Demon Cleansing Bureau, approached the Yuwen Family in an imposing array of nearly three thousand elite martial artists.
Outside the Yuwen Family in Tingtao Valley, the charming valley lay silently, with only the sound of the river flowing vigorously.
For a family estate of the Yuwen Family's caliber, there were certainly arrays for defense and family mbers to garrison, but at that mont, it was eerily silent, and even the mansion's gates stood wide open.
Han Zheng spoke in a grave voice, "Those at the Xuan Gang Realm, follow inside. The rest surround the estate; don't let a single person escape."
Stepping into the Yuwen Family estate, everyone frowned slightly.
The entire place seed as if it had undergone a chaotic upheaval, ssy everywhere, with even so traces of blood on the ground.
Everyone had thought that entering the Yuwen Family's domain would surely lead to a fierce battle, but instead, they were t with this scene.
At that mont, two figures erged from the Yuwen Family's interior.
One was Yuwen Kang.
However, Yuwen Kang at this ti was shivering and his face was filled with terror, as if he had seen sothing horrifying.
The other figure was as thin as a rake, with an old and haggard face that hardly looked human, wearing a loose white robe that seed to drape over a skeleton.
"Yuwen Xizhen! How did he end up like this?"
Zhao Rongye, who was held in Pei Xiuyuan's grasp, exclaid in surprise.
Zhao Rongye had been seriously injured by Han Zheng, and his Cultivation was sealed off, but with everyone mobilized, leaving him behind at the Demon Cleansing Bureau risked mishaps, so he was brought along as well.
"You don't know what has beco of Yuwen Xizhen?"
Zhao Rongye shook his head and said, "Since the Black Mountain Demon chaos, to avoid suspicion, I haven't seen Yuwen Xizhen. We've communicated through a secret treasure.
And the Eternal Spring Water has always been delivered to quietly by Yuwen Kang during the Yuwen Family's procurent trips to Smoke Wave Prefecture.
Yuwen Xizhen shouldn't look like this. He and I are about the sa age, but he suffered no internal injuries in his early years.
Besides, he was a very handso man in his youth, brave and masculine, extraordinary and elegant, so nobody would think this man of strong features would betray the Martial World and collude with Demons.
With his youthfulness and consumption of the Eternal Spring Water, he shouldn't have aged so much."
At this mont, Yuwen Xizhen also looked toward Zhao Rongye and smiled with a ghastly grin.
"Zhao Rongye, I knew you, this spineless coward, would surely betray .
If there were any other choice, I really wouldn't want to cooperate with you."
Zhao Rongye's face was also twisted in ferocity, "You still have the face to bla ? If it weren't for your uselessness, would I have fallen to the state I'm in today?"
Han Zheng said indifferently, "Alright, you two stop snarling at each other.
Yuwen Xizhen, are you planning to surrender without a fight? You should know that your Yuwen Family alone can't stop us."
Sighing and shaking his head gently, Yuwen Xizhen said, "Mr. Han, is there really no room for negotiation?
The events of the past have passed, so why do you insist on dwelling upon them?
Moreover, had I not reached an agreent with the Poisonous Flood Dragon Demon Lord back then, do you know how many people in Smoke Wave Prefecture would have died?
My Yuwen Family at least saved countless lives, can't that atone for our actions?"
Han Zheng replied with scorn, "So, the Martial World factions in Smoke Wave Prefecture should thank you?"
Ji Tianhong, who had a slippery character, was now livid with anger, and he shouted furiously, "Spouting such utter bullshit! You collude with Demons to send us to our deaths, and we should be grateful to you?
A father's murder is an irreconcilable hate. Back then, I was too young to kill those Demons and avenge my father, but today, the blood of your Yuwen Family would be perfect to commorate my father!"
Yuwen Xizhen looked at Ji Tianhong with disdain, "Back then, the Sect Master of Xuanyuan Cave, Mo Jianghong, was a fool. He killed the confidant of the Poisonous Flood Dragon Demon Lord's subordinates in public and nearly got his entire Sect eradicated by a hoard of Demons.
If it wasn't for my diation, your Xuanyuan Cave would have long lost its lineage!
With , Yuwen Xizhen, your Xuanyuan Cave only lost a little over two hundred Disciples in five years.
Without , Yuwen Xizhen, the more than six hundred people at your Xuanyuan Cave would have perished at that ti!"
Han Zheng waved his hand to interrupt Ji Tianhong, who was about to continue his angry tirade.
"As long as you live, the events of that ti will never be over.
The Black Mountain Demon chaos must be accounted for, and the Martial World victims of Smoke Wave Prefecture, as well as the ancestors of the Demon Departnt, must be avenged.
Not to ntion, through the years, your Yuwen Family is still secretly capturing people to sacrifice to the Eternal Spring."
"Our Yuwen Family sacrifices only Martial World rejects, criminals, bandits, so are even on the Demon Cleansing Bureau's wanted list," the figure argues.
Han Zheng said with a cold laugh, "That's because you're afraid the disappearance of too many upright Martial Artists would raise suspicions.
Zhao Rongye surrendered easily and could have a swift end. I advise you to stop struggling as well."
Yuwen Xizhen looked at Zhao Rongye with disdain, "Don't compare that coward with , is he even worthy?
Since you, Mr. Han, are unwilling to spare , then none of you shall leave today!"
In an instant, the sky above Tingtao Valley suddenly beca shrouded in dark clouds, and a chilling, eerie aura descended abruptly.
