Zhang Fei - The Abandoned Son

Chapter 742: Meet The Hong Clan

”Wow! So many kitties!” Wu Lianzhi exclaimed as soon as she saw so many Mai Xiaomengʼs subordinates in their cat form. ”Grandma Xinxin, where do all these cats come from?”

Hong Xinxin pointed at Mai Xiaomeng. ”This one is a big female cat, and all these kitties are her subordinates.”

Wu Lianzhi looked at Mai Xiaomeng in confusion because she did not have any cat features on her body, and her current form was no different from the other humans. ”Are you really a female cat, Grandma?”

ʼThis little girl! Iʼm young and sexy, but she calls me that.ʼ Mai Xiaomeng squatted in front of Wu Lianzhi and patted her head. ”Little girl, Iʼm not as old as Hong Xinxin, so you canʼt address me as grandma. Instead, you can call me a big sister, okay?”

”No!” Wu Lianzhi refused by shaking her head. ”My mother told me to address Grandma Xinxin as a grandmother, and you are her friend, so I will also address you as a grandmother.”

”You can call me whatever you like then.” Mai Xiaomeng then asked Zhang Xiaolong [3]. ”Where are you going to move us? Are you going to take us to the Nine Stars Realm?”

”I will take you all there, but you and your race members will be living on an empty island to avoid pressuring the other cultivators.” Mai Xiaomeng did not reject Zhang Xiaolong [3]ʼs idea, especially since it was better than if she had to meet Xi Hongyan. Moreover, they would live in the same realm, and she could come to him whenever she wanted. ”Are all your members gathered here? If they are all here, we can leave now.”

Hong Xinxin immediately spoke to her. ”Fei, I know youʼre not ready to meet my family because the situation in this realm is still complicated, but I hope you can meet them.”

[Master, I think you can meet them, and your real body must stay in this realm. That way, the quality and quantity of the Qi inside the training space will be equal to the Qi in this realm, and all of you can cultivate faster because of it. As long as you stay in seclusion, you donʼt need to think about the situation in this realm, and your clones can take care of all problems in other realms, including the Earth.]

ʼWell, thatʼs true.ʼ Zhang Xiaolong [3] said to Hong Xinxin directly. ”I will bring these cats to the Nine Stars Realm first, then we will meet your family.”

Hong Xinxin smiled in relief after hearing that, and she carried Wu Lianzhi directly. ”In that case, I will wait for you with my family.”

Mai Xiaomeng directly led her race members into the gate, followed by Zhang Xiaolong [3]. Since they were of the beast race, he wanted to place them on an island not far from the beast kingdom, but he contacted Long Huang to ask for his approval first.

After the beast emperor agreed, Zhang Xiaolong [3] took them to the island he had chosen. He then returned to the Zhou Kingdom to temper his body again, but Mai Xiaomeng actually followed him to seduce him. He chose to ignore her and let her do whatever she liked, especially since she could help him if any unexpected problems occurred.

Meanwhile, Zhang Fei walked out of the training space, but he was not alone. Instead, Zhang Lin accompanied him because he was curious about the Red Sun Realm, and she couldnʼt do anything because her cultivation was not stable after she broke through to the Earth Realm.

Zhang Fei raised his eyebrows when they arrived in front of them because Hong Quan tried to suppress him with his aura, but he did not do it to Zhang Lin because she would not be able to withstand it.

Zhang Fei directly let go of Zhang Linʼs hand and disappeared from their sight, which shocked Hong Quan and the others. After all, the old manʼs cultivation was higher than Shang Huaqiangʼs, but he was not the least bit pressured and was still able to move under his pressure.

Hong Xinxin simply smiled, observing her familyʼs reaction, but she gestured for them to turn around, as Zhang Fei was already standing there, wearing a relaxed smile.

Hong Quan and the others immediately turned to Zhang Fei. ”No wonder my granddaughter has confidence in you, and Old Man Hun is also willing to accept you as his newest disciple. If I pressure the other younger generations with my aura, they will immediately fall to the floor and not be able to move an inch.”

”How did you train yourself to this extent, kid? Your cultivation is still at the 5-Star Earth Realm, but you are much better than cultivators at the Seven Divine Realms in some aspects.” Hong Chong spoke to him.

”You both praise me too much, seniors.” Zhang Fei then told them. ”Xinxin trained me in the body cultivation path, and Master Hun trained me in the soul cultivation path. I have many wives and partners, and they helped me in my cultivation, and I was able to reach this level thanks to them. In addition, I also trained my mental strength in a special way, which I canʼt explain to you.”

Hong Quan nodded in understanding while rubbing his long beard. ”Iʼve lived for so long, but Iʼve never met a cultivator as complete as you. Xinʼer also told me you were an alchemist and blacksmith; even the Nameless One couldnʼt walk all the cultivation paths like you.”

”Senior, I still canʼt compare to the four of you, let alone the Nameless One.” Zhang Fei replied with a shake of his head. ”The four of you are much stronger than me, and that man is the strongest in this universe, even though he cannot pursue all cultivation paths like me. However, I am significantly younger than all of you, and the path ahead of me is still uncharted. All I can do now is strive hard to improve myself in all areas, and I am confident that I can surpass all of you in the future. At that time, I will stand at the pinnacle of the cultivation world, and no one will be able to harm me or those closest to me.”

”Hahaha.” Hong Quan laughed as he stood up and approached Zhang Fei. ”If it was someone else who said that, I would think that person was bragging. However, you are different from others, and you have many advantages to stand at the pinnacle of the cultivation world. I donʼt know when you will succeed in achieving your lofty dream, but I will definitely be there and witness your success. Anyway, Xinʼer told me that you still donʼt know how strong your true strength is, so I will help you measure it. Therefore, you can attack me with all your strength, and I might be able to give you some pointers to improve your strength.”

Zhang Fei himself was curious about his true strength, so he immediately followed Hong Quanʼs wishes by channeling all his strength into his fist, but he did not use all of his enhanced strength abilities.

*Bam*

Zhang Fei was stunned to see Hong Quan not budging from his spot even an inch, even though he had used all his strength to punch his abdomen, and the old man did not look like he was in any pain.

”Based on your attack just now, your true strength is still equivalent to quasi-divine realm cultivators.” Hong Quan then asked him. ”Do you have enhanced strength techniques?”

”I have some, Senior.”

”Use all of them at once.”

”All right.” Zhang Fei immediately used all of his enhanced strength abilities and punched Hong Quanʼs abdomen once again, but the old man was only pushed back an inch. ʼHoly fudge! A high-level cultivator and body cultivator like him is indeed terrifying, and his body strength is several times above mine.ʼ

Hong Quang rubbed his beard as he thought for some time. ”I must admit that your enhanced strength abilities are truly amazing, especially since they can increase your strength to the level of cultivators in the Divine Expansion Realm. If your body cultivation has reached the third stage, you might be able to face cultivators at the Divine Manifestation Realm. However, enhanced abilities usually put an excessive burden on our bodies, so you canʼt use them for long-term combat. If you are forced to use them because you are facing strong enemies, then you must finish the fight as quickly as possible. Otherwise, you will lose to them, and you will also die in their hands.”

”Grandpa, Zhang Feiʼs main advantage is not in his enhanced abilities but in his speed.” Hong Xinxin said this to Hong Quan.

Hearing that, Hong Quan turned to his daughter-in-law. ”Yizhen, you are the fastest among us, so I want you to compete with Zhang Fei in speed.”

”Yes, Father.” Yan Yizhen replied in a soft voice.

Hong Quan then asked Zhang Fei. ”Do you mind showing us your speed, kid? Yizhen comes from the Yan Clan in the Shandian Realm, and her clan focuses on speed, so you can compare your speed with hers.”

”Not at all.” Zhang Fei answered with a shake of his head. ”However, we canʼt possibly do it here, or I wonʼt be able to use my maximum speed.”

”Letʼs do it outside so you two can use your maximum speed.” Hong Quan immediately led them out. ”Anyway, you donʼt need to hold back your speed, Yizhen.”

Yan Yizhen was surprised to hear that, but she still agreed to Hong Quanʼs request. ”Yes, Father.”

Arriving outside, Zhang Fei and Yan Yizhen immediately stood opposite each other, and Hong Quan locked his aura on them because he was sure he wouldnʼt be able to follow their movements without doing so.

Zhang Fei cupped his hands to Yan Yizhen before saying. ”Senior, I donʼt mean to belittle you, but you must use your highest speed, or I will catch you immediately.”

Yan Yizhen and the others were surprised by Zhang Feiʼs confidence, so they turned to Hong Xinxin and Zhang Lin, who smiled confidently. ”Mother, he really didnʼt mean to underestimate you, and you will realize the truth of his speed once the two of you compete, so you should use your highest speed from the start.”

Yan Yizhenʼs body was instantly enveloped by a green aura, but it didnʼt just come from her wind element, and there was something else fused with it. ”Get ready, Zhang Fei.”

”Iʼm ready, senior.”

Yan Yizhen immediately disappeared from their sight, but she was shocked because Zhang Fei suddenly patted her shoulder from behind. She immediately activated her technique and accelerated her speed even further.

However, Zhang Fei continued to follow Yan Yizhen from the side, and he repeatedly patted her shoulder, giving her a tremendous shock. ʼWhat the hell with his speed? Our speed and technique are the best in the upper realms, but he can keep up with my movements. Moreover, he hasnʼt used his wind element yet, and I wonʼt be able to catch up to him if he does.ʼ

Unlike Hong Xinxin and her family members, Zhang Lin could naturally watch Zhang Fei and Yan Yizhenʼs movements with naked eyes. ”Big Sis Xinxin, your motherʼs speed is amazing, but she will never be able to escape from my big brother.”

”Can you see their movements, little girl?” Hong Chong asked.

Zhang Lin nodded at him. ”My brother is actually afraid of death because there are so many people by his side, so he keeps honing his speed, and his speed is several times faster than Senior Yizhen. Actually, I can catch up to them because I have trained my speed using the same method, but my speed is still behind my big brotherʼs.”

”Try chasing them, little girl.” Hong Quan immediately enveloped Zhang Lin with his aura to follow her movements.

Hong Chong and Cai Yinzhiʼs expressions turned serious as soon as Zhang Lin disappeared, but since they did not lock their auras on her like Hong Quan, they could not follow her movements.

”Did she succeed in chasing them, Father?”

”Yes.” Hong Quan nodded to his son. ”That little girlʼs speed is a few levels below Zhang Feiʼs, but her speed is obviously several levels above Yizhenʼs, and she can pat your wifeʼs shoulder without any difficulty. Moreover, she doesnʼt have the wind element but the water element, so her speed is truly impressive.”

”Do you think my father-in-lawʼs speed can surpass theirs?”

Hong Quan thought for a moment before replying. ”Yan Liejingʼs speed is truly remarkable, and he may be able to surpass the little girlʼs, but his fastest speed still wonʼt be able to surpass Zhang Feiʼs.”

Hong Chong took a deep breath before muttering. ”If my father-in-law meets Zhang Fei, he will probably beg him to help him increase his speed, especially since he is too obsessed with speed.”

”Xinʼer, you accidentally found two talented monsters.” Cai Yinzhi spoke softly, a satisfied smile on her old face.

”Haha.” Hong Xinxin smiled bitterly at her grandmotherʼs remark about Zhang Fei and Zhang Lin. ”Grandma, I myself never thought that his speed could surpass my motherʼs and grandfatherʼs, and I only discovered it a few days ago. Honestly, I still donʼt know how they practice, but he and his little sister are not the only ones who have such a high speed. Even his grandmother is much faster than senior cultivators like us, even though her cultivation is still in the Soul Realm now.”

After they played cat and mouse for some time, the three returned to Hong Quan and the others. However, Yan Yizhen looked disappointed because Zhang Fei and Zhang Lin were able to surpass her speed, even though her cultivation was much higher than theirs. ”Father.”

”I know you are disappointed, but you must always remember that there is another sky above the sky. Your Yan Clan has always been considered the fastest because no one could match you in the past, but your match has appeared now, not just one but two.” Yan Yizhen nodded to Hong Quan, who immediately asked Zhang Fei and Zhang Lin. ”Can you two still increase your speed again?”

”Senior, I have just broken through to the Earth Realm, and my speed will increase again after I practice to the next stage.” Zhang Lin was the first to answer.

Zhang Fei also answered him. ”I still canʼt improve my speed for now, and I have to wait for my cultivation to break through to the quasi-divine realm first.”

”I see.” Hong Quan was actually curious about their training in increasing their speed, but he was not a nosy person, and he fully understood that everyone had their own secrets. ”Since itʼs almost nighttime, letʼs have dinner together and talk about light things, especially about your relationship with Xinʼer.”

”Yes, Senior.”

During dinner, Hong Quan and Cai Yinzhi asked Zhang Fei all kinds of questions, especially about the future of his relationship with Hong Xinxin.

Zhang Fei assured them that he would marry Hong Xinxin after his cultivation reached the Seven Divine Realms. Additionally, he distributed his basic pills to the four members of the Hong Clan, and he also gave them the Yin and Yang Purifying Pills, which elated them.

However, Zhang Fei had no intention of giving his other pills to them, especially the Youthful Retaining Pill and the Beauty Restoring Pill. After all, the effects of the two pills were too unbelievable, and their effects would only cause them a lot of trouble.

Zhang Fei suddenly spoke to them. ”Senior, if the four of you want, I can also guide you to become soul cultivators like Xinxin.”

”Eh?” Hong Quan and the others turned to Hong Xinxin directly. ”Are you really a soul cultivator now?”

”Thatʼs right.” Hong Xinxin nodded at them. ”Zhang Fei helped me become a soul cultivator, and I feel much better now. Therefore, the four of you can learn from him, which will help you become stronger and less vulnerable to soul attacks.”

”All right, we agree with that.”
