Chapter 77 Seizing Power
Yunwu, which had not seen any outsiders for many years, now welcomed an old friend at the foot of the mountain.

Chen Fengshuo stopped and looked up. The top of the mountain was shrouded in mist and the cloud was still there.

Many years passed, and when he returned again, the time he lived in the mountains was still vivid in his mind. He couldn't help but feel a little dazed, as if he saw the day twenty years ago when he left his family to pursue the Tao.

Twenty years after leaving the Chen family, he still looks the same young man as before, the only difference is that there is a bit more maturity between his brows.

He has been hanging around in the Jinyang Region over the years, and with his own efforts, he has made a name for himself. He had successfully established his foundation five years after leaving his family, and his cultivation has now gone one step further, reaching the third level of foundation building.

As the saying goes, if you don't return home when you are rich, it's like walking in fine clothes at night.

Back then, it was only natural for Chen Qing to hold on to the Foundation Establishment Pill and refuse to give it to him. After so many years, he is no longer the passionate young man he used to be. He has experienced days without resources for cultivation and has suffered beatings from the world of immortal cultivators. Instead, he understands Chen Qing's actions even better.

So he felt that Chen Qing could be let go, but the Chen family must be in his hands.

It is not as convenient for one person to earn resources for cultivation outside as it is to have the support of a family.

As long as Yunwu Mountain is taken from Chen Qing and the resources of the entire family are gathered for him to further improve his cultivation, breaking through the middle stage of foundation building should not be a problem.

By then destroying the Chen family's rival, the Liu family, not only can they increase their prestige, but they can also take the opportunity to obtain the Liu family's resources, which can be said to kill two birds with one stone.

Thinking of this, Chen Fengshuo's lips curled up slightly, and he controlled the flying sword. With his windbreaker sleeves fluttering, he looked like a sword immortal descending to the earth, following the most powerful aura of the two foundation-building cultivators of the Chen family.

In a short while, he arrived at the Chen family compound. His foundation-building aura was not concealed, and enveloped the entire compound.

"Chen Qing, come out and see me!" The deep voice spread across most of Yunwu Mountain.

Many tribesmen heard the noise and ran out to see what was happening.

Feeling the man's profound cultivation, most people were moved.

"Who is this person? How dare he come to my Chen family and shout at me?"

"Oh no, could it be the remnants of the Liu family? Tell the head of the family immediately."

"Why does this person look familiar? I seem to have seen him somewhere before."

Several older monks looked at this familiar face with a thoughtful look, as if they had some impression of this person.

Chen Dazhuang, who was in the crowd, looked at Chen Fengshuo's face, and an idea suddenly occurred to him. He asked in surprise: "Feng Fengshuo, are you Chen Fengshuo?!"

After so many years, he had long forgotten about this person. He thought that the other person would never come back or had simply died outside.

But when he saw the other party again this time, who was already a foundation-building cultivator, his expression was rather complicated.

Chen Fengshuo heard a familiar voice coming from below, turned his head and looked, seeing that it was an acquaintance, he smiled and said: "It turns out to be Da Zhuang, I haven't seen you for many years, you have made great progress."

Chen Dazhuang's face flushed red. After twenty years, Chen Dazhuang was still at the ninth level of Qi training. To say that it was "significant progress" actually sounded a bit sarcastic.

"Don't panic, this person is a member of my Chen family who just returned from an outing. There's no need to make a fuss. Everyone, go away!"

Chen Qing came down from the top of the mountain and suddenly appeared in the family compound.

After dispersing the tribesmen, he turned to look at Chen Fengshuo and said coldly: "Why did you come back?"

He had selfish motives when he did not stop the other party from leaving. After all, the Chen family had limited resources at that time and could not support the cultivation needs of two foundation-building cultivators.

If Chen An had not been there, he might have begged the other party to stay, but today was different from the past. It didn't matter whether the Chen family had one more or one less foundation-building cultivator.

"I came back for only one purpose, and that is for the position of the head of the family. I advise you to hold a family meeting and give the position to me. Otherwise, I will have to take it myself with the sword in my hand."

Chen Fengshuo's eyes were cold, and the black sword in his hand emitted a terrifying cold light, which made Chen Qing, who was only at the first level of foundation building, involuntarily show a bit of fear on his face.

"Chen Fengshuo? Don't be so presumptuous!"

At this time, Chen Zishun also rushed over and happened to hear this, but the two of them together were no match for each other, so he did not dare to act rashly. "You two, come together, if I win, you will give me the position of the head of the Chen family."

Chen Fengshuo was in high spirits, and his aura suddenly rose to the peak.

Chen Qing and Chen Zishun showed bitterness on their faces. There was a difference of two small realms between them, so how could they defeat this person?
Chen Qing didn't dare to act rashly. If he really lost, the head of the family would be replaced, which no one wanted to see.

"No words? Then I'll just do it!"

Chen Fengshuo became a little impatient and immediately urged the black spirit sword to fly above his head.

In an instant, the black sword emitted a cold light, and in a trance, several sword shadows appeared, attacking Chen Qing and the other two with fierce momentum.

"careful!"

Chen Qing and the other man did not dare to be careless. They hurriedly activated a water shield each, and fought back with the defense shield.

"Talisman? It seems that the Chen family has developed very well in recent years. They even have a second-level mid-grade defensive talisman."

Chen Fengshuo licked his lips, looked at the two of them with burning eyes, and at the same time increased the frequency of his attacks.

After defending against two sword shadows, Chen Qing felt that he could not bear it anymore and looked involuntarily towards the direction of the northern mountain of Yunwu Mountain, hoping that the pillar of the Chen family would appear in time.

Before, the Chen family was able to survive several crises thanks to this man’s strength.

"Oh? Who are you waiting for?"

Chen Fengshuo followed Chen Qing's gaze and saw that thick white fog had risen from the north side of Yunwu Mountain at some point. It made people dizzy after just a few glances and they couldn't see clearly what was inside.

His heart trembled. Could it be that there was another expert in the Chen family? Was the old master still alive?

But when I went up the mountain, I clearly only felt the aura of two foundation-building cultivators from Yunwu Mountain, and there was no third person at all.

I think it was Chen Qing who diverted his attention and distracted him.

How treacherous!

Chen Fengshuo sneered and swung his sword to push the two men back several feet. At the same time, two sword shadows slashed out and hovered above their heads, just a few inches away from taking their lives!

"You two have lost. No one in the Chen family can defeat me now. You should give up your position." Chen Fengshuo retracted the black sword and said coldly while looking at the two people in such a miserable state.

Chen Qing, however, had a calm expression, not showing any sign of being about to lose power: "If you can defeat Chen An, it would be fine for me to give up my position."

"Chen An? He has also established his foundation?" Chen Fengshuo was surprised.

"What? I can't build a foundation?!"

A gust of wind suddenly blew over the family compound, and along with it, a voice fell into the ears of several people.

Seeing the person coming, Chen Qing and the other two were overjoyed and immediately jumped up to greet him.

"It's really you. You're here just in time. Fight with me quickly. If I win, you will give me the position of the head of the family as agreed." Chen Fengshuo was full of fighting spirit and pointed his sword at Chen Andao.

Chen An smiled and said, "What if you lose?"

As soon as Chen Fengshuo stepped into the foot of Yunwu Mountain, he sensed the other party's presence through the formation.

Originally, they thought that Chen Fengshuo was simply returning to the family, so they let him in, but they never thought that the other party actually wanted to seize power by force by relying on his cultivation.

Chen Qing has been managing the family diligently and in an orderly manner over the years. He has also found many second-level spirit seeds for him. Naturally, he will not stand idly by.

"I won't lose!" Chen Fengshuo said firmly, and he drew out the black sword again, ready to go.
