Zhou Yu’s action relieved the Lin Family members from their state of nervous tension, as if they were people drowning who had been rescued to shore, gasping for breath.
At the same time, their gaze towards the elderly man changed, filled with terror.
Is this the person from the Bai Family?
But the old man raised his eyebrows and looked at Zhou Yu, a cold light flashing through his aged eyes.
"I didn’t expect this young man to be an expert," he muttered.
"However, speaking such words in front of my Bai Family shows a lack of awareness of life and death."
"A martial artist of your level, any random member of my Bai Family could make you kneel and beg for mercy."
Zhou Yu said indifferently,
"Maybe the others in the Bai Family are as amazing as you claim."
"But at least you, this old dog, do not have the qualifications to be insolent in front of me."
Everyone’s face changed at these words.
Especially Bai Yulou’s.
He never expected the kid from the countryside to be so brazen and disrespectful to Elder Zhou.
He immediately barked in a cold tone,
"Zhou Hongsheng, the Grandmaster, is one of the Semi-Saint guards of our Bai Family. He has been renowned for many years and possesses great strength, he should not be insulted by you."
"Kneel down and apologize to Elder Zhou immediately, otherwise, even if Elder Zhou is magnanimous and does not punish you, I will take care of you."
When Bai Yuzhen and Lin Chaodong heard what Bai Yulou said, they both panicked.
Although Bai Yuzhen knew that Zhou Yu was a martial artist, she was not very clear about his Cultivation Realm, but in her opinion, no matter what, Zhou Yu of such a young age could not possibly be the opponent of a Semi-Saint expert.
Lin Chaodong, who had also practiced martial arts when he was younger, although he had never reached the Gang Jin stage, it didn’t prevent him from understanding what a Semi-Saint level meant.
To him, it was an almost divine existence.
Just now, for example, the mere display of a bit of momentum almost made them suffocate.
How could one dare to offend such a master?
Bai Yuzhen and Lin Chaodong both hastily got up and pulled Zhou Yu behind them.
Bai Yuzhen respectfully said to Zhou Hongsheng,
"Elder Zhou, I apologize on behalf of Zhou Yu. Please don’t be angry; Zhou Yu didn’t mean it."
Having said that, she hurriedly made eye signals to Zhou Yu, indicating that he should acquiesce.
Lin Chaodong also secretly tugged at Zhou Yu’s arm, signaling him to apologize.
Zhou Hongsheng said coldly,
"Fine, I’ll consider this brat lucky."
"For the sake of Bai Yuzhen, if he apologizes and acknowledges his mistake, let’s consider this matter settled."
"However, only this once. If it happens again, I will certainly cripple him."
Zhou Yu’s eyes narrowed.
He pushed Lin Chaodong and Bai Yuzhen aside and strode up to Zhou Hongsheng.
"Forget about next time; let’s deal with this time. I want to see how you’re going to cripple me?"
Zhou Yu suddenly burst out, entirely beyond Lin Chaodong and Bai Yuzhen’s expectations, and it was too late for them to stop him.
Both of their faces turned ugly.
Especially Bai Yuzhen’s.
She knew the Bai Family’s character too well; those Grandmasters of the Bai Family were extremely proud. Challenging them to their faces was simply courting death.
Zhou Hongsheng’s face suddenly became grim, his eyes filled with murderous intent.
"Boy, heaven has a path you didn’t take. Since that’s the case, I will cripple you myself."
She immediately shouted,
"Elder Zhou, please, spare Zhou Yu, I’ll sign the agreement right away..."
Bai Yuzhen said, and was about to rush forward.
However, in the next moment, a terrifying aura burst forth from Zhou Hongsheng, and Bai Yuzhen felt an indescribable sense of suffocation approaching, causing her body to uncontrollably fall backward.
Lin Luoluo screamed in alarm, wanting to support Bai Yuzhen, but she too was shaken back out of control.
Meanwhile, inside the villa’s living room, the decorative items such as light fixtures, cups, and vases instantly shattered into pieces.
Seeing this scene, Zhou Yu snorted coldly. The aura of the Eight Desolations Fist swept out from him, instantly breaking through Zhou Hongsheng’s momentum.
"Old dog, this place does not tolerate your arrogance."
Being called an old dog by Zhou Yu left Zhou Hongsheng’s face twisted with rage.
"Brat, you’re courting death!"
Zhou Hongsheng moved swiftly, his fist thundering toward Zhou Yu.
His overpowering Gang Jin turned into a torrent of arrows, completely enveloping Zhou Yu.
This stance truly aimed to pierce Zhou Yu’s heart with a thousand arrows.
However, in Zhou Yu’s eyes, Zhou Hongsheng’s ferocious attacks might be fierce, but after all, he was only at the Semi-Saint level, and such experts were no longer in Zhou Yu’s sight.
Zhou Yu snorted coldly, and the Jindan Power was instantly activated.
Zhou Hongsheng’s attacks, like droplets of rain, bombarded Zhou Yu but exploded with a dense bursting sound three inches from Zhou Yu’s body, causing him no harm whatsoever.
Zhou Hongsheng was stunned.
"How... how is this possible!!!"
He had long sensed that Zhou Yu was merely at the Great Innate Cultivation Realm.
While reaching the Great Innate Realm at such a young age was indeed rare,
how could someone merely at the Great Innate Realm withstand his attack?
"Old dog, is this really all the strength you have?"
As Zhou Hongsheng was in shock, Zhou Yu lifted his foot and, like a flash of lightning, kicked him squarely in the chest.
Zhou Hongsheng screamed in agony, rolling backwards in the air before crashing heavily to the ground.
On his chest, there was a perfectly distinct footprint.
At this moment, everyone, including Bai Yulou, was bewildered.
Their martial arts cultivation was too low to make out the details.
In their view, Zhou Hongsheng had charged at Zhou Yu with a fierce momentum, but he ended up being kicked to the ground by Zhou Yu.
While everyone was still in a daze,
Zhou Hongsheng roared.
He could not accept this reality.
Zhou Hongsheng ignored the pain, rose angrily, and attempted to strike again.
Zhou Yu, with no intention of showing courtesy, kicked out once more.
Zhou Hongsheng was sent flying again.
This kick, just like the previous one,
even left a footprint on his chest that exactly matched the first one.
This time, Zhou Hongsheng lay on the ground, his face contorted with pain, unable to get up for a long time.
Bai Yulou was completely shocked; he hadn’t expected this kid from the countryside to possess such formidable martial prowess.
After coming to his senses, he immediately shouted:
