Comprehension Ability: I Forge a Villainous Longevity Family-Chapter 41: Shocking Change! Anomaly!

"Shijiu, when do we make our move?"

On the tree crown, a man in a black robe with the number twenty-three engraved on his forehead stepped forward and spoke in a deep voice.

The leading black-robed man, Shijiu, replied indifferently, "No rush, let’s wait until their trial ends, and then dismantle the Heaven-Filling Array."

After a pause, the black-robed man Shijiu continued, "Have we figured out the background of the guardians that the Chen Family sent this time?"

"Yes."

The black-robed man Twenty-three nodded and replied, "There are three guardians in total. The most powerful is the Fourth Peak Master of the Chen Family, Chen Tianchen, who has reached the True Self Realm. The other two are clan elders at the Peak of Divine Travel."

"When the time comes, Shijiu, you’ll be responsible for dealing with Chen Tianchen. Twenty-three and I will handle the two clan elders at the Peak of Divine Travel. As for Twenty-seven and Twenty-eight, they’ll be tasked with suppressing the target this time, Chen Zhaosheng, and extracting the King’s Map from him."

"Shijiu, what do you think?"

The leading black-robed man Shijiu pondered for a moment, closed his eyes, nodded, and said:

"Let’s follow this plan."

...

...

Time passed slowly.

In the blink of an eye, a day had passed since Chen Zhixing left the flying ship.

During this day, the battles among the entire Chen Family’s new generation disciples gradually intensified.

In just the first day, more than ten Chen Family youths were eliminated.

However, all of this had nothing to do with Chen Zhixing.

"Where’s the formation eye?"

Chen Zhixing walked along the edge of the Heaven-Filling Array, furrowing his brows, spreading out his divine thought, constantly searching for the position of the formation eye.

Indeed, he had no intention of participating in this trial.

His goal in coming to the Southern Border from the start was to find the tomb of Taoist Jiu Feng and thus obtain the "Nine Gods Technique."

And perhaps to see if he could resolve a major upheaval destined for the Chen Family.

"Young master, you’re looking to find the formation eye of the Heaven-Filling Array and leave here without alerting others?"

A cold female voice echoed in Chen Zhixing’s mind.

"That’s right." Chen Zhixing nodded.

"This... this array should have been laid by an Array Grandmaster. I’m afraid that even if you find the formation eye, you won’t be able to break it."

Cyan Pheasant, knowledgeable as she was, recognized at once that this Heaven-Filling Array was of a quite high grade and should be the work of a True Self Realm Array Tao Grandmaster.

She couldn’t help but doubt that Chen Zhixing could find the formation eye, let alone quietly break the array and leave.

"Let’s give it a try." Chen Zhixing smiled ambiguously.

"Alright, come to think of it, I also know a bit of the way of arrays, so I’ll help the young master think of a way to break it when the time comes."

Cyan Pheasant smiled slightly, then asked curiously:

"Young master, why must you leave at this time and not wait until the trial is over? With the trial completed, the array will be dismissed, and wouldn’t that be much simpler?"

Chen Zhixing did not reply but instead looked up, glanced at the flying ship hovering in the distant sky.

If his memory served correctly.

This trial would be a turning point in the decline of the entire Chen Family!

Chen Tianchen, the Fourth Peak Master of the Chen Family, would meet a violent death in the Southern Border during this trial, with his bones never to be found! ƒreeωebnovel.ƈom

Chen Zhaosheng, the Qilin Child of the Chen Family, would have his King’s Map extracted, becoming a cripple overnight!

The act would be executed by an organization called "Spider Web."

As for Chen Zhixing.

He didn’t care much about Chen Zhaosheng’s fate.

Although in this lifetime, due to proactively revealing the Nine Ancient Patterns talent, and because Chen Tianliang did not encounter distress in the South Sea Secret Realm, the originally tragic end for Chen Zhixing’s family did not occur as it did in the plot of the original "Great Cultivation," evading the pitiful downfall at the hands of Chen Tianxiong’s line.

But when he thought back to his birth.

All the hardships and deliberate obstruction by Chen Tianxiong to his father, withholding family resources, which nearly sent Chen Tianliang to the South Sea Secret Realm.

And how Chen Zhaosheng, over the years, had been subtly probing into his affairs, plotting against him from behind.

He felt not a shred of goodwill towards this father and son duo.

Especially now, why did Chen Zhaosheng repeatedly express the desire to see his strength? Wasn’t it just to find a legitimate excuse to act against him, to stomp Chen Zhixing underfoot in front of everyone’s eyes?

Including that fool, Lu Ying, why was she always able to stay beside Chen Zhaosheng, even joining this internal family trial?

Could it be that Chen Zhaosheng truly fancied Lu Ying?

No.

Everything Chen Zhaosheng did was just to show him, to provoke him, to make him act impulsively.

And Chen Zhaosheng would then justly accept the challenge and stomp Chen Zhixing underfoot.

"Narrow-minded, petty, jealous, yet acts extremely hypocritical, wanting to step on me while maintaining face, unwilling to gain the reputation of ostracizing his own clan. Truly trying to be both virtuous and infamous at the same time."

Chen Zhixing couldn’t help but mockingly laugh in his heart.

Shaking his head, Chen Zhixing calmed his thoughts.

Chen Zhaosheng was merely a minor character. Even if he escaped this time, Chen Zhixing would actively seek Chen Zhaosheng for retribution.

This guy had already brought him enough displeasure.

Cultivation is the cultivation of the heart.

If one’s thoughts cannot be accessible, how can they cultivate the heart?

But...

Chen Tianchen was the only one in the Chen Family who truly cared for the house of Chen Zhixing.

Even in the previous life of the "Great Cultivation" storyline, he was one of the few in the Chen Family who offered Chen Zhixing ten years of warmth during his dark childhood.

The ending for Chen Tianchen should not have been a tragic death here.

And to change all this...

Chen Zhixing can only grow stronger, transforming himself into the variable of this sudden upheaval!

Time slowly passed.

Chen Zhixing silently pondered these things while searching with his divine thought for the core of the Heaven-Filling Array.

Suddenly.

Chen Zhixing’s steps halted.

"Found it!"

His eyes flashed, and he looked up at a massive blue stone.

He felt it.

The core of the Heaven-Filling Array was buried beneath that blue stone.

On either side of that blue stone, there were two young men around twenty years old, in a tense standoff.

One of them held a ring-headed long blade, while the other wielded a half-moon axe.

Both of them had bloodstains on them, clearly having already fought to a draw.

"Who?"

"Huh? Third Young Master?!"

In an instant, the two members of the Chen Family simultaneously turned their heads to look at Chen Zhixing.

Chen Zhixing raised his eyebrows slightly, somewhat surprised, not expecting anyone to be fighting at the array’s core.

"Third Young Master, you’re just in time! The two of us can quickly join forces to take this man down! He has at least six wristbands on him, and we can split them!"

The young man holding the ring-headed long blade immediately beamed and called out.

He then approached Chen Zhixing.

"You’re spouting nonsense! Third Young Master, don’t believe him! He tricked me the same way before and then stabbed me in the back! If not for my quick reflexes, he would have succeeded!"

The young man holding the half-moon axe quickly shouted.

In his panic, he also hurried towards Chen Zhixing, looking as though he feared Chen Zhixing would team up with the long-blade youth.

Closer.

Getting closer.

In the blink of an eye, the two drew near from left and right, only one zhang away from Chen Zhixing!

Seeing Chen Zhixing remain indifferent, the two exchanged glances silently and shared a look.

"So that’s all the direct line of the Chen Family is, hahaha!"

"Another fool falling for our trick! Let’s eliminate him!"

In an instant, the two burst into laughter and swiftly swung their blade and axe towards Chen Zhixing!

A surge of Void Transformation Realm cultivation emanated from the two of them!

Boom!!!

A pair of white slender hands shot out like lightning, grasping the necks of the two smugly airborne men like they were little chicks.

"Ah???"

Suddenly, their eyes widened, their gleeful smiles frozen, disbelief washed over their faces.

This... What happened?

"Why is it that so many people in this world boast of minor cleverness and feel smug?"

A faint voice sounded.

Chen Zhixing calmly lifted his head, holding the two by their necks, and gently collided them in the middle.

Bang!!

In an instant, the two felt as though their heads hit a wall of steel and stone, and with a sharp pain in their heads, they passed out.

Chen Zhixing casually tossed their unconscious bodies onto the forked branches of a large nearby tree.

Then, he took the wristbands from their hands and threw them onto the two.

After doing all this.

Chen Zhixing took a deep breath and reached out to move the blue stone in front of him aside.

The next moment.

Chen Zhixing looked down at the ground beneath where the blue stone had pressed, and his gaze couldn’t help but focus intently.

"Hmm?"

Chen Zhixing raised an eyebrow, a hint of astonishment crossing his face.
