Chapter 40: Eat the whole thing.

Chapter 40: Eating the Pieces
[Technique: Clear Heart Technique (Great Perfection)]

“I didn’t realize that after the Grand Completion of the Clear Heart Technique, it could inspire special states.”

Chen Fei thought about what had just happened, that kind of control over the body, over the things around him, one couldn’t help but get lost in it. However, it was obvious that this state also had limitations, lasting for a short period of time, and the aftereffects didn’t seem to be small.

After resting for a few moments, Chen Fei’s feeling of dizziness slightly improved.

The special state of the Clear Heart Technique had a very obvious effect on the enhancement of battle power. Not to mention the others, just the Three Immortal Swords that Chen Fei used just now could become a new killing move.

The Three Immortal Swords was a sword move recorded in the Immortal Cloud Sword, only that Chen Fei had gotten a tattered version of the secret book, and many of the explanations of the sword moves were almost gibberish.

Thus, this Three Immortals Sword could only be considered a sword move created by Chen Fei. Compared to the Immortal’s Guidance, the Three Immortal Swords’ three swords were combined into one, and its power had been increased by a lot.

It might be able to bring a little threat to martial artists at the Marrow Realm. But it was only a small threat, after all, Chen Fei’s own internal energy realm was too low, and it was too difficult to face the enemy across two orders.

“Sort of an unexpected surprise.”

Chen Fei’s face could not help but reveal a hint of a smile, and had just wiped the water off his face with a towel, when a sharp knock on the door suddenly came from outside the courtyard.

“Steward Chen, is Steward Chen in?” Liu Jun’s anxious voice shouted.

“What’s wrong?”

Chen Fei opened the gate to the courtyard and saw that Liu Jun was currently gasping for air. Seeing Chen Fei open the door, Liu Jun hurriedly entered, then carefully closed the door behind him.

Chen Fei looked at Liu Jun somewhat strangely, but did not urge him.

“The Zhang family is gone!” Liu Jun turned to look at Chen Fei and whispered.

“What?” Chen Fei could not help but be stunned, not expecting to get such news from Liu Jun’s mouth.

“The Zhao family brought people and surrounded the Zhang family, the head of the family was killed, as well as many of the young ladies and gentlemen are also dead.”

Liu Jun’s body involuntarily trembled as he said this.

Liu Jun had been working within the medical center since he was a child, and had also always treated the Zhang family as his main family. Now that he had suddenly heard that the Zhang Family had been destroyed, the feeling was tantamount to the sky collapsing.

Chen Fei inquired in detail, and only then did he realize the general situation of the matter.

Yesterday, the rebels had joined forces with the Zhao family, and without knowing what reason they had found, they had directly killed the Zhang family. It seems that they didn’t even give a chance to argue, Zhang Ting died on the spot, as well as some of the Zhang family’s clan elders.

All of the direct lineages were killed, and only some of the collateral lineages barely survived.

The various resources of the Zhang Family were divided up, and all the people from the side lines were driven out of the mansion and became displaced.

Not only the Zhang family, but also two other families, both of which were annexed by the rebels as well as other families, finding a reason to do so.

“It’s really a case of eating everything.”

Chen Fei muttered, after the various lineages finished handing over their respective resources, the rebels directly wielded their butcher knives. It was probably because they were worried that the backlash would be too great, and they directly joined forces with the lineages within Pingyin County to minimize their losses.

Between the various lineages within the county, there had been all sorts of friction and grudges, it was just that they were usually more restrained.

Now that a more powerful rebel army had joined them, and it just so happened that they had lost so much before, they naturally wouldn’t let go of such an opportunity to replenish themselves by slaughtering other families.

“Steward Chen, will something happen to us?”

Liu Jun asked with a pale face, this was the thing he was most concerned about. With the Zhang Family gone, would the Zhao Family kill them all together?
“We’re just working at the medical center, we’re not a direct descendant of the Zhang Family, we should be fine.”

Chen Fei thought about it for a while and was also a bit unsure. By common sense, the Zhao Family would not do anything to them. But under this world, where was there too much common sense to speak of.

“Boom boom boom!”

The sound of a near-hammering door rang out, Chen Fei frowned slightly and went forward to open it. There were three people standing outside the door, and one of them was holding a portrait in his hand, constantly comparing it to Chen Fei. “You are Chen Fei?”

“Yes, I wonder Your Excellency?”

Chen Fei glanced at the portrait, on which was his own appearance. This kind of preparation was really fine.

“I am Zhao Xia, the Qingzheng Medical Center will belong to the Zhao family from now on. Now you come with me, the head of the family wants to see you.” Zhao Xia said with a hint of arrogance.

Chen Fei pondered for a moment and nodded, “Alright, I’ll trouble the three of you.”

At this moment, the Zhao Family’s aura was at its peak, so there was no need for Chen Fei to touch it. And Chen Fei also wanted to find out what exactly happened among them.

“Good to say good to say!”

Seeing that Chen Fei was so receptive, Zhao Xia laughed loudly. An alchemist was still relatively valuable to the Zhao Family.

Chen Fei turned back and instructed Liu Jun for a few moments and followed the three of them, Zhao Xia, to the Zhao Family’s residence.

Compared to the silence of the previous days, today’s Zhao Family seemed quite lively. Chen Fei took a look at the people around him, many of them were the people from the medical center in the beginning.

“Elder Zeng!”

Chen Fei came to Zeng Defang’s side and shouted in a low voice.

“Chen Fei, you’re here.”

Zeng De Fang turned his head to look at Chen Fei, and could not help but sigh slightly, patting Chen Fei’s shoulder and saying, “Be careful lately, if you have any difficulties, you can come to me.”

“Thank you Elder Zeng!”

Chen Fei looked up at Zeng De Fang and saw that he looked tired, thinking that the sudden breakup of the Zhang Family was also a blow to him. After all, Zeng Defang and the Zhang Family had been working together for many years, and the Zhang Family had treated Zeng Defang quite well, both sides still had some feelings.

Now that he had arrived at the Zhao Family, the Zhao Family shouldn’t be able to neglect Zeng Defang, after all, Zeng Defang could refine the Light Spirit Pill. This was almost the highest level cultivation elixir in Pingyin County, there should not be any family that would ignore such a money tree.

The Zhao Family’s head of the family quickly came into the hall and spoke some soothing words, allowing the people from the original medical center and rice store to feel a little more at ease.

Chen Fei pretended to listen attentively, but his attention was focused on another person. Ling Drought Jun, the bandit leader who had previously rampaged through the city.

Chen Fei didn’t expect to run into him here, and now he was also the guest of honor of the Zhao family, which made Chen Fei very surprised.

Chen Fei didn’t have the idea of hiding himself, the face that was seen at first was a fake, Chen Fei was now just a harmless Skin Cultivation Realm Alchemist.

“I’ve been hearing that Brother Ling is looking for someone, I wonder if there are any recent clues? If there is anything my Zhao family needs help with, Brother Ling must not be polite!”

Zhao Chengji smiled, last night’s siege of the Zhang Family, the strength of the Ling Drought Army made Zhao Chengji gasp in amazement. With a cultivation at the peak of the Calcined Bone Realm and with profound and subtle moves, even amongst the rebel army, it was a leading existence.

“I’ve seen quite a few Calcined Bone Realm martial artists lately, are there any other well-known experts above the Calcined Bone Realm within Pingyin County?” Ling Drought Army swept a glance at the people under the field, before retracting his gaze in disappointment.

“Brother Ling is looking for someone to spar in martial arts?”

Zhao Chengji thought that Ling Drought Jun wanted to improve his skills in preparation for his next breakthrough to the Marrow Training Realm.

“Looking for an enemy who killed my brother!” Ling Droughtjun’s expression became cold, and his eyes were filled with gloom.

“Who is so bold, does brother Ling have a portrait of that person, I can mobilize the Zhao family’s manpower to find that thief for brother Ling.” Zhao Chengji shouted.

“I’ve thought about it for a long time recently, that person is afraid that he has learned the art of disguise, the likeness I saw that day should be a fake.”

Ling Drought Jun’s brows were furrowed, this was a possibility that he had thought of recently. Of course, it was also possible that that person had left Pingyin County a long time ago, which was why he had been unable to find anyone.
