Fantasy Simulator - Chapter 228
Chapter 228: Chapter 228 – Appear
Within the quiet room, the atmosphere became quite tense, and everyone looked around.
Hearing the middle-aged cultivator’s words, the Zhang clan’s cultivators all remained silent.
No one dared to speak or agree to any terms.
After all, the other side’s demands were a bit too dangerous, and if they were not careful, the entire Zhang clan might be destroyed.
No one present dared to make an answer for Chen Heng.
However, if they did not agree, the Flowing Cloud Sect’s demands would still be there.
Even though the Zhang clan had developed well over the past few decades and was even called the fourth major sect by some, everyone knew that this was solely because of Chen Heng.
It was because they had Chen Heng, a Profound Understanding realm cultivator, that the Zhang clan was so powerful.
Compared to the Flowing Cloud Sect, the Zhang clan was just a minor figure and not a match for them at all.
If Chen Heng did not go and the other side decided to punish them…
Thinking of this outcome, everyone’s hearts sank.
Looking at Zhang Chong and the others’ expressions, the middle-aged cultivator laughed and said, “Why does old clan leader Zhang feel so worried?
“The Zhang clan’s clan leader is also from our Flowing Cloud Sect and is an Inner Court Disciple. Him going back is just dealing with the demonic cultivator; it is not a big deal.
“Even if our sect punishes him, what can we do to him? We just want the Zhang clan’s clan leader to go and investigate and will not do anything else.”
The middle-aged cultivator smiled and said, “This one can promise that nothing will happen to the Zhang clan’s clan leader, and he will safely return.”
He looked incredibly serious and sincere. No matter how things turned out, he would at least say this now.
When Chen Heng really entered the Flowing Cloud Sect, whatever happened would not be his fault.
Thinking to there, the middle-aged cultivator’s smile became wider.
In front of him, some of the Zhang clan members felt somewhat convinced.
“Could it be… it really is just a normal summoning?”
“Indeed, our Zhang clan has been here for many years; why would the Flowing Cloud Sect act against us…”
Looking at the middle-aged cultivator’s sincere expression, they thought to themselves.
Even Zhang Chong began to hesitate.
However, he quickly came back to his senses and felt quite wary.
He looked at the middle-aged cultivator and forced a slight smile as he said, “Ambassador…”
“No need to say anything else.”
Looking at Zhang Chong, the middle-aged cultivator stood up as he said, “I have said what I came to say; how you proceed will be up to your clan leader. Can you please give me an answer so I can go back and report?”
The moment he spoke, his aura spread out, weighing down on everyone’s chests.
In that instant, everyone’s expressions slightly changed as they felt a great pressure.
“Foundation Building!”
They looked at the middle-aged cultivator in shock.
After developing for 30 years, apart from Chen Heng, the Zhang clan only had a few Foundation Building cultivators.
Of the Zhang clan members present, only Zhang Ya was at Foundation Building.
Sensing the aura coming from the middle-aged cultivator, their expressions slightly changed as they felt that pressure.
Even though she was also at Foundation Building, she also felt a massive wave of pressure, and she could not help but inwardly frown.
Evidently, this ambassador’s cultivation was much higher than hers.
Just as she was about to stand up, clear footsteps could be heard from outside, walking towards where they were.
Bang! Bang!
The sound of heartbeats could be heard, as if a ferocious beast was approaching.
After that aura appeared, everyone sensed some changes.
The surroundings seemed to lose color, and within the world, there seemed to only be those heavy footsteps.
The middle-aged cultivator’s expression finally changed.
Perhaps others did not feel much, but at that moment, he felt a suffocating pressure.
Every footstep felt as if it was stepping on his body, feeling like a massive mountain weighing down on him.
It felt as if a demon god was slowly approaching this place.
Bang!
In the next moment, his face became incredibly pale and he stumbled backwards, looking outside in disbelief.
Under his gaze, a young man’s figure slowly appeared.
The young man was very handsome, and even though his appearance looked quite young, he had an ancient look in his eyes and gave off an extraordinary aura.
Just by standing there, he seemed like the center of the world, and his massive aura covered this entire region, turning it into his own domain.
Looking at the young man, the middle-aged cultivator was stunned and his face became pale.
“Profound Understanding…”
Standing there and looking at the young man, he gritted his teeth and realized who he was.
Apart from the Zhang clan’s clan leader, who could have such presence and might?
This was their target, and now that they saw him, they could not help but feel shocked.
The might from the Zhang clan’s clan leader was much stronger than other Profound Understanding cultivators he had seen.
Profound Understanding was above Foundation Building, and only those at Foundation Building Completion could break through and rank up.
Such experts were rare even in the Flowing Cloud Sect, and they were absolute experts. They were all Elders in the Flowing Cloud Sect and enjoyed exceptional treatment.
However, from what the middle-aged cultivator could sense, the might from the Zhang clan’s clan leader was much stronger than from the Flowing Cloud Sect’s Elders.
To be able to come to the Zhang clan as an ambassador, his strength was not weak, and he was near the peak of Foundation Building.
However, even he felt a trembling in his soul when he looked at that figure. He could not even think about fighting.
His body began to uncontrollably tremble as he felt an instinctive terror.
However, after a while, he was able to calm himself down. He forced himself to breath in before saying, “What has the clan leader come here for? Are you preparing to act against us?”
He felt somewhat nervous as he asked.
Before coming here, the Elders had especially given him a magic item. Even if a Profound Understanding cultivator attacked him, it would temporarily protect him and give him the opportunity to escape.
However, from the aura Chen Heng was giving off, it seemed that he would not even have the opportunity to use it.
This person was much stronger than ordinary Profound Understanding realm cultivators and was above the level of Elders.
Even if he used the magic item, so what?
He would just anger the other side.
“Didn’t you want to see me?” Chen Heng asked as he stood there.
Under the faint sunlight, he looked almost divine.
Looking at the middle-aged cultivator and the others, his expression was calm as he said, “Now, I’m here.”
As he spoke, the expressions of the people from the Flowing Cloud Sect changed as they felt a formless energy spread out, eating away at their soul and sucking away their strength.
The middle-aged cultivator’s expression slightly changed, and his face lost all color.
“Go back and tell them.”
Looking at their reactions, Chen Heng continued to speak, “I will return to the Flowing Cloud Sect in three months. I hope that nothing will happen to Junior Apprentice Sister Hou before then.”
“Please be at ease, Senior Apprentice Brother Zhang,” the middle-aged cultivator spoke with difficulty, “We will deliver Senior Apprentice Brother’s words.”
Even though Chen Heng had not returned for many years, he was still an Inner Court Disciple of the Flowing Cloud Sect.
That was why the middle-aged cultivator referred to him as Senior Apprentice Brother.
After saying this, he deeply bowed towards Chen Heng before hurriedly leaving with the others, not daring to stay even a moment longer.
