Early the next morning, a piece of news that shocked Tianjian City began to spread in the city.
"The Chang family was destroyed."
This was something no one expected. Overnight, this family with a history of 500 years would disappear.
The guards of the City Lord's Mansion surrounded the entire Chang family. The raging fire last night burned all night long, and even now, there are still tiny flames left.
The city lord Zhong Yanying stood in the middle of the ruins, feeling as if a rabbit had died and a fox had died.
"Take care of this place. This matter ends here and there is no need to investigate further," Zhong Yanying said to the guard calmly.
"Sir, it must be them that the young lady and I met that day," the old man named Uncle Liang said from the side.
"He is from the Holy Sect, and his status is not low," Zhong Yanying pondered, and then said: "I told Ling'er not to go out these days. I don't know what the purpose of this person's coming to Tianjian City is."
The old man nodded and retreated.

At this time, Xu Zimo was practicing his sword in the courtyard when he suddenly received a report from a servant that a man claiming to be the third prince of the Ziyang Empire was looking for him.
Xu Zimo recalled briefly in his mind that he seemed to be a tragic character in his previous life.
"Let him come in," Xu Zimo said.
Then a young man with a resolute face walked in. The young man was wearing a white shirt and had a long sword at his waist.
"Mr. Xu, I am the third prince of the Ziyang Empire. I hope you will forgive me for coming here uninvited," the young man said with a smile.
"Do you have a problem with me?" Xu Zimo asked.
"Our Ziyang Empire belongs to the forces under the management of Shengzong. I am planning to return to the imperial capital tomorrow. I also heard that the young master is here this time, so I thought of paying a visit," An Yifeng said.
"You came to Tianjian City to win over the Chang family and compete for the heir apparent," Xu Zimo said with a smile.
An Yifeng was silent for a moment and said, "Since Mr. Xu already knows, I won't hide it.
Originally, I really wanted to win over the Chang family, but it's a pity that I met a hero who was fighting violence and peace, and I have been out for such a long time, so I should go back to the imperial capital," An Yifeng replied with a wry smile.
"Do you have a brother named An Yiheng?" Xu Zimo touched his chin and asked.
"That's my second brother," An Yifeng nodded and said.
"Do you want to be the crown prince?" Xu Zimo suddenly asked.
An Yifeng was stunned for a moment, and for some reason his heart suddenly beat much faster.
He swallowed hard, looked at Xu Zimo with burning eyes, and nodded.
"Well, I'll give you a chance," Xu Zimo said with a smile: "As long as you let me hear the news of An Yiheng's death, I will guarantee that you will become the future prince of the Ziyang Empire."
An Yifeng was stunned, "Does this mean he wants to kill his brother?"
He looked struggling, not knowing how to respond. What was more important, the throne or his half-brother?
"Okay, don't worry, go back and think about it slowly. My promise is always valid," Xu Zimo waved his hand and said, "But I can remind you that without my help, you can't win the crown prince.
"
Xu Zimo was not lying. In his previous life, An Yifeng's brother An Yiheng was the future crown prince.
The protagonist Chu Yang rose from Qingyang Village and then came to Tianjian City to regain the Chang family.
Finally, he went to the imperial capital and met the second prince An Yiheng. The two became close friends. Finally, with the help of Chu Yang, An Yiheng also succeeded in becoming the crown prince.
As for An Yifeng, in the end he was nothing more than a pathetic creature.
"I will seriously consider it," An Yifeng nodded and then stepped back.
……………
Later, Xu Zimo called Black Thirteen over.
"Thirteen, I have something to give you, but don't mess it up."
"Master, please give me your instructions," Black Thirteen nodded solemnly.

In the morning in Qingyang Village, Coach Mo started morning training with the teenagers as usual.
Since taking the elixir Xiao Yuexuan left for Qingyang Village, he has also successfully broken through the Pulse Condensation Realm, and his spiritual energy is surging majestic. This is caused by his years of backlog.
The young men in the team were all walking hard, their faces all red, and they had been doing this for more than an hour.
But only in the last row, the young man named Chu Yang looked resolute and steady as a pine tree, and he didn't seem to feel tired at all.
Since practicing the "Step Fighting Immortal Art" given to him by Mr. Mo and taking the elixir left by Xiao Yuexuan, Chu Yang's body has been tempered several times and reached the ninth level of the mortal realm.
This level of training is simply child's play for him.
After one morning's morning exercise, all the teenagers were so tired that they could not straighten their backs, but Chu Yang was the only one who felt relaxed.
Coach Mo came over, patted him on the shoulder and said, "Come on, maybe your achievements will be much higher than mine in the future."
Chu Yang smiled and then nodded firmly.
…………
After breakfast, Chu Yang came to a forest outside Qingyang Village. Inside the forest, there was a particularly large canyon.
A river gathered above the canyon, falling from the sky like a waterfall, causing waves on the ground. Below the river was a small pool.
There were golden carp swimming in the pool, and on the smooth rocks on both sides, a turtle lay quietly on it basking in the sun.
Chu Yang came all the way to the water pool, and Old Mo's voice sounded from inside the ring.
"Xiao Yangzi, sit under the waterfall and use the pressure of the waterfall to try to open the first vein gate and break through the spiritual vein realm today."
The stream flew straight down three thousand feet, and it was suspected that the Milky Way had fallen into the sky.
Chu Yang looked up at the dragon-like waterfall, gritted his teeth, and slowly sat on it.
As soon as he sat under the waterfall, he could feel the pressure of the water rushing down, and the muscles in his whole body felt like tearing pain.
He felt that the blood in his body was running backwards, as if the blood vessels were about to burst.
He couldn't help but look up to the sky and roar in pain.
"Hold on," Mr. Mo's voice sounded from the side, "Run the Bu Zhan Immortal Art, repair your body bit by bit, and then slowly adapt to this pressure."
Chu Yang nodded with difficulty, gritting his teeth and enduring the pain.
Gradually, his body became numb and his consciousness began to blur.
"You can't sleep. Try your best to break through the spiritual vein realm at this time, otherwise it will damage your foundation," Old Man Samsara shouted from the side.
Chu Yang opened his eyes vaguely and murmured to himself, "Yes, I can't sleep, I have to go find Xiao'er."
He thought of the day the girl left and how powerless he felt.
A flash of light suddenly flashed through his eyes, and there was a "bang" sound, as if shackles were being opened in his body.
The water of countless waterfalls surged, and Chu Yang watched his own changes excitedly.
Then he suddenly saw out of the corner of his eye a cave behind the waterfall, as if there was a cave hidden inside.
