Chapter 397 - Chapter 397: A Simple Palm Move

When this sound rang out, Chu Feng only felt a gentle force enveloping him, causing him to drift rapidly backward.

And when Chu Feng's body stopped drifting, the force that enveloped him dissipated. Then, Chu Feng was astonished to discover that right beside him stood a familiar old man. This old man was no one else but Zixinguan's grandfather, Zixuanxuan.

However, even now, Zixuanxuan still gave Chu Feng a strong impression. Even though Chu Feng had become much stronger due to the power of the forbidden drugs, he still couldn't penetrate Zixuanxuan's cultivation level. And from Zixuanxuan's calm and composed appearance, it could be seen that he was not afraid of the current Jieshi Peng at all.

"Who are you?" Jieshi Peng raised his eyebrows and asked coldly.

"I am a friend of Chu Feng's," Zixuanxuan narrowed his eyes and replied kindly.

"Friend? I'm asking for your name," Jieshi Peng snorted.

"Oh, it seems you have a name. My name is Zixuanxuan," Zixuanxuan smiled and apologized.

"Are you Zixuanxuan?" When he heard this name, Jieshi Peng's expression suddenly changed. A trace of surprise appeared in his eyes.

"Ah? This young man, did you not know my name?" Zixuanxuan asked with a smile.

"Huh, many years ago, the hegemon of Qinzhou was the Digeomeng Mansion. The Digeomeng Mansion had a solid foundation and had ruled Qinzhou for three hundred years, outmatching all the forces in Qinzhou. In Qinzhou, there was no force that could rival the Digeomeng Mansion."

"But before that, the unknown Supreme Mountain Villa suddenly rose up and defeated the Digeomeng Mansion, becoming the hegemon of Qinzhou. And all of this was related to an old man."

"This old man, came to the Supreme Mountain Villa as a visiting elder, seemingly simple, but in fact, it made the Supreme Mountain Villa undergo earth-shattering changes. In just a few years, it expanded rapidly and surpassed the Digeomeng Mansion, becoming the hegemon of this Supreme Mountain Villa."

"And this legendary old man, isn't that you, Zixuanxuan?" Jieshi Peng spoke, his eyes tightly fixed on Zixuanxuan, with a very strange gaze.

"Ha ha, I never expected that I would be so famous. However, outsiders don't know about these things. It seems that you from the Yi Clan have secretly investigated quite a lot of matters," Zixuanxuan laughed and then said with a touch of nostalgia:

"I did have some connection with the former head of the Supreme Mountain Villa, we were old friends. I was entrusted by him to stay at the Supreme Mountain Villa as a visiting elder to take care of it."

"Back then, the Digeomeng Mansion was too domineering. Seeing the rise of the Supreme Mountain Villa, it repeatedly attacked the Supreme Mountain Villa. It played tricks in the dark and bullied openly, causing the people of the Supreme Mountain Villa to be in great turmoil and chaos."

"I simply couldn't stand it, so I went to the Digeomeng Mansion and had a few words with the lord. Unexpectedly, he actually submitted a letter to the Jiang Dynasty, saying that his Digeomeng Mansion was inferior to the Supreme Mountain Villa and requested that Qinzhou be handed over to the Supreme Mountain Villa."

"Although this result was not what I expected, I have to say that the lord of the Digeomeng Mansion was very respectful to me, the old man."

"Today, I want to take the young friend Chu Feng away. I sincerely ask the clan chief Jieshi to let Chu Feng off with a lenient punishment. I wonder if the clan chief can also show some courtesy to me?"

Zixuanxuan smiled, his words seemed gentle, but actually contained hidden meaning. He was showing off his strength and hoping that Jieshi would back down.

"Since Elder Zixuanxuan has spoken, I will naturally give you this courtesy. Today, I will let Chu Feng go with a lenient punishment, but in the future when we meet again, I can't guarantee that I won't strike him."

"I then, thank you, clan chief Jieshi," Zixuanxuan said with a smile, but in reality, he did not show any indication of gratitude. "Ha ha, Senior Xuanyuan is being overly polite. But since Senior Xuanyuan can, by himself, make the Demei Mansion tremble, I'm sure Senior Xuanyuan's strength must be extraordinary."

"I have no other intentions. I just like to constantly challenge the limits and explore the higher realm of martial arts. So, I want to have a contest with Senior Xuanyuan. I wonder if Senior Xuanyuan will be kind enough to accept?"

Jiexing Peng was very cunning. Although he promised that he would let Zixuan Xuanyuan off, in reality, he did not really intend to let Chu Feng go.

He used the name of a contest to fight with Zixuan Xuanyuan. If he lost to Zixuan Xuanyuan, it was fine. But if Zixuan Xuanyuan was not his opponent, then perhaps both Zixuan Xuanyuan and Chu Feng would die at his hands today.

"Ha ha, well then. I also know that the Jiexing clan is a long-standing and prestigious clan."

"Since we can meet the noble clan leader today, it's also a kind of fate. So, let me, the old man, experience the strength of the Jiexing clan leader."

Suddenly, Zixuan Xuanyuan's robe swirled, and then he vanished like a ghost in the spot. When he reappeared, he was right in front of Jiexing Peng.

Zixuan Xuanyuan acted, without any fancy martial arts skills, no dazzling movements, no terrifying power, no lightning speed. Instead, he slowly pushed out a palm, with a gentle force, not in a hurry, towards Jiexing Peng.

"Ha!"

However, even with this so flawed and even completely non-threatening palm of Zixuan Xuanyuan, it caused Jiexing Peng's face to change dramatically, and his eyes suddenly showed a trace of fear.

He shouted loudly, activated the advanced esoteric technique, mobilized all the heaven power in his body, his left hand clenched into a fist and placed it at his waist, his right hand spread out and struck his chest, also pushing out a palm, towards Zixuan Xuanyuan's palm.

Although it was the same palm being struck out, the power of the two was completely different. When Jiexing Peng's palm was struck out, Chu Feng could clearly see that the space around him was twisting and shaking, endless heaven power emerged and entered his body. The power of this palm was definitely not to be underestimated. Perhaps a towering mountain would be shattered by his one palm strike.

"Beep"

However, even with this so fierce palm of Jiexing Peng, just before it approached Zixuan Xuanyuan's palm, it suddenly began to slow down, and finally, it lightly touched the palm of Zixuan Xuanyuan.

There was no the expected booming sound, no the expected explosion. The two palms just intertwined gently.

"Step"

However, this seemingly gentle collision was not as peaceful as it seemed. Almost at the moment when their palms collided, Jiexing Peng suddenly stepped backward a step, and the powerful force actually created cracks on the sky.

Immediately after that, his body burst out an extremely powerful aura. The heavenly energy around him began to surge more fiercely into his body. In this mid-air, one could clearly see that the intangible heavenly energy stirred the sky, like a vortex, entering the body of Jieshiang Peng.

Jieshiang Peng was using special methods to gather the heavenly energy. He really exerted all his strength and used his full power.

But even so, Jieshiang Peng still couldn't shake off Ziyuanxuan. Instead, gritting his teeth, he took another step backward.
