Extraordinary Comprehension: I Establish an Immortal Villain Family

Chapter 69: Someone’s in Big Trouble, Success in Seizing!

Inside the grand hall of the Ruan family.

As Elder You extended his hand and made a grasping motion from afar, Lin Feng was instantly lifted into the air as if pulled from the ground like a radish. No matter how hard Lin Feng struggled, he couldn’t move an inch!

"Chen Zhixing, what’s the point of bullying others with power? If you’ve got the guts, put me down, and let’s fight one-on-one!" Lin Feng, his hair disheveled and face full of hatred, glared at Chen Zhixing, who was seated high up, and growled lowly from his throat.

Smack!

Elder You delivered a loud slap across Lin Feng’s face from a distance, instantly making him see stars and feel dizzy.

“Heh, tui! What kind of trash are you to challenge my young master to a duel?” Elder You sneered disdainfully at Lin Feng, saying, "Fight? Are you any good at fighting? Out in the world, you need background and power to survive. If you don’t even understand that, do you think you’re qualified to play the hero and save the damsel?"

"Ahhhhh!" Lin Feng’s face swelled up, and he went completely berserk, feeling utterly stifled inside.

He had always considered himself extraordinarily talented, powerful, and blessed by fate, carrying a heavy weapon with boundless future potential, destined to become a great hero!

But now, absurdly, he was being defeated by a mere second-generation wastrel!

He felt stifled.

But more than that, he was furious—furious at the unfairness of the heavens!

Why did he have to start his cultivation journey as a mere servant, while this so-called useless second-generation wastrel could sit there and decide his life and death with just a word?

"Young Master, if there's nothing else, shall I drag him out?" Elder You glanced at Chen Zhixing, grinning wickedly.

"Go ahead."

Chen Zhixing sipped his tea lightly and nodded slightly.

Seeing this, Elder You's eyes lit up, and a strange smile spread across his face as he looked at Lin Feng.

"What are you going to do?" Lin Feng felt an inexplicable chill in his heart from Elder You’s smile.

"Nothing much, just haven't had a workout in a while. You’ll be a good warm-up!" Elder You grinned, revealing a set of gleaming white teeth. Then, with a flash, he and Lin Feng left the hall.

Chen Zhixing shook his head slightly.

In the family, Elder You had few friends.

This wasn’t just because of his mysterious nature and the fact that he spent most of his time by Chen Daoyan’s side, rarely showing up.

More importantly, Elder You had a notorious reputation for being ‘twisted’ in his methods.

Many of the enemies of the Ziwei Chen family weren’t killed by Elder You; they were played to death by him.

"Looks like someone’s in for a world of hurt." Chen Zhixing sighed slightly.

Moments later.

"What are you doing?"

"Don’t come near me, stay away!"

"Ahhh!!!"

Terrified screams echoed from outside the hall.

Inside, the members of the Ruan family couldn’t help but exchange uneasy glances, shrinking back slightly with a sense of foreboding.

For some reason, hearing Lin Feng’s screams made them feel as if something truly horrible was happening!

Moments later, the wretched screams outside the hall abruptly stopped.

And in Chen Zhixing’s mind, a series of cold notifications sounded once again.

[Ding! You have killed one of the protagonists of destiny and will now seize part of his luck and innate abilities!]

[Ding! Your initial luck value of 70% has increased by 30%, now totaling 100%!]

[Ding! You have obtained a new title: Great Fortune]

[Ding! You have obtained a fragment of the Nine-Layered Exquisite Pagoda and unlocked one of the nine divine abilities: Earth-Striding Steps!]

[Ding! You have obtained a sealed version of the Nine-Layered Exquisite Pagoda!]

As these notifications fell, a vast amount of knowledge about the ‘Earth-Striding Steps’ instantly flooded Chen Zhixing’s mind.

Within moments, Chen Zhixing fully comprehended it.

At the same time, no one noticed that his right palm suddenly felt heavy, as if a small, dusty, and rusted tower with no apparent mystical properties had appeared in his hand.

The small tower was only palm-sized, but it felt as heavy as if he was holding a small mountain.

If Chen Zhixing hadn’t broken through the limits of his physical body and reached the True Self Realm, he might have been caught off guard and made a fool of himself by this small tower.

"In a sealed state, it can’t be used?"

Chen Zhixing tried to channel his spiritual energy and divine sense into the tower, but it seemed like an ordinary small tower, with nothing special about it.

"Looks like to activate this tower, I’ll either need to reach an unimaginable level of cultivation, or my luck value must increase to Lin Feng’s level?" Chen Zhixing speculated briefly and then tossed the small tower into his storage ring to gather dust.

Unlocking a layer of divine abilities with each realm, like Lin Feng did, seemed impossible for now.

But the tower was incredibly durable and heavy.

It might come in handy as a weapon to smash things—quite satisfying, actually.

As Chen Zhixing was lost in thought.

Elder You returned, looking refreshed.

"Young Master, it’s done."

Elder You sniffed the air slightly, then resumed his position behind Chen Zhixing.

The members of the Ruan family, witnessing this, now looked at Elder You and Chen Zhixing with entirely different eyes.

Previously, they had thought this elder was just an ordinary old servant.

But...

The fact that he could so effortlessly kill a newly advanced Xuanyin Zhenren indicated that Elder You’s cultivation was at least at the True Self Realm, seventh level or higher!

Such a being was an absolute powerhouse anywhere!

A Guardian!

This was something only ancient sacred lands or immortal families could have—a Guardian!

Realizing Elder You’s true identity, the members of the Ruan family became even more respectful and reverent toward Chen Zhixing.

For Chen Zhixing to have a Guardian of at least the seventh level of the True Self Realm with him, what did this imply? The answer was crystal clear!

"I heard rumors a few days ago that the Ziwei Chen family’s natural-born king with the Nine Ancient Marks..."

The Ruan family members exchanged glances, feeling a surge of realization. The rumors were probably 90% true!

If that were the case...

They turned to Chen Zhixing, and the look in their eyes became one of unwavering loyalty and fervor.

The person sitting before them wasn’t just the third young master of the Ziwei Chen family; he was clearly the future master of Ziwei!

In the next moment!

Thud! Thud! Thud! Thud!

The Ruan family members all knelt down before Chen Zhixing in unison.

"I, Ruan Zhenlong, thank the Third Young Master and the Elder for saving our lives!"

"Otherwise, the Ruan family would have faced annihilation today!"

"Today, I, Ruan Zhenlong, swear that as long as the Ziwei Chen family stands and as long as one member of the Ruan family remains alive, we will forever be loyal to the Ziwei Chen family and support them to the death!!!"

As these words fell, Ruan Zhenlong took a deep breath and bowed deeply to Chen Zhixing.

The other members of the Ruan family did the same, their expressions solemn and sincere.

At this moment, they completely entrusted their lives to the Ziwei Chen family!

This included Ruan Nanzhu as well.

When Lin Feng finally tore away his mask completely, the last bit of admiration she had for him vanished into thin air.

On the contrary.

When she looked at Chen Zhixing, who had been calmly drinking tea all along, with no indication of what he was thinking, she felt a strange, indescribable emotion in her heart.

It wasn’t love.

It was far from that.

More likely, it was curiosity?

She couldn’t quite say.

In any case, it was something peculiar.

"Alright, I’ll remember what you’ve said."

Chen Zhixing smiled, then got up and stretched.

"I’m tired today, let’s call it a day."

"Yes!" Ruan Zhenlong quickly got up and called for someone to take Chen Zhixing to the specially prepared guest room to rest.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Chen Zhixing and Elder You left the hall step by step.

Of course, when he said he was tired, it was just an excuse.

But he was indeed eager to study the three top-tier divine abilities he had seized from Lin Feng today!

These three top-tier divine abilities... seemed even stronger than he had anticipated!
