C1413 The Old Housekeeper
In the next moment, Zhou Yan's gaze focused, and his index finger lightly flicked out, shooting out a bright light, as dazzling as a blazing sun.
"* Huff *"
Zhou Yan's speed was extremely fast. In the blink of an eye, his fingertip collided with the old butler's frost.
Immediately after, a scorching aura exploded, melting all the frost and forming a layer of light red mist.
Swish.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Zhou Yan's figure flashed past the old butler and disappeared from the room.
"Damn it, I let that brat escape again." The old butler gritted his teeth in anger.
He knew that Zhou Yan was deliberately luring him to attack, waiting for an opportunity to escape.
At the same time.
Zhou Yan had already left the Zhou Family and arrived at the outskirts of the city.
"Hmm?"
Zhou Yan suddenly frowned as he sensed a powerful aura approaching him quickly.
Not long after, a burly man appeared in front of Zhou Yan.
Dressed in a grayish-brown skin-tight attire, this man had dark skin and bright eyes that were filled with a solemn aura.
"Dark Guard Commander?"
Zhou Yan frowned slightly.
The Dark Guards were the exclusive guards of the empire. They were responsible for protecting the safety of the imperial family and possessed extremely powerful combat strength.
"Brat, who are you? How dare you trespass into the forbidden grounds of my Zhou Family?"
The leader of the dark guards said coldly, "If you know what's good for you, then surrender. I can consider leaving your corpse intact!"
"Hehe, the leader of the Zhou Family's Dark Guards is only at this level?" Zhou Yan sneered.
"How dare you!"
The leader of the Dark Guards was furious.
This little brat actually dared to look down on him?
This was ridiculous.
"Brat, I'll ask you one last time. Who are you?" the captain of the Dark Guards asked coldly.
"Zhou Yan!" Zhou Yan said coldly: "I came to the Zhou Family to take back what belongs to me!"
After saying that, he did not say anything else. He spread out his right hand with his palm facing down and suddenly pressed it down. He shouted in a low voice, "Fire Seal!"
Boom!
In an instant, flames shot out and formed a giant fire seal that crushed down.
"Insignificant skill!"
The leader of the Dark Guards had a disdainful expression as he formed a thick layer of ice armor around his arms. He spread his arms and charged into the air like a dragon as he clashed with the flaming seal.
"Bam!"
The flaming seal instantly exploded and turned into sparks that flew everywhere.
The captain of the Dark Guards fell from the air and revealed a stunned expression after regaining his balance.
If he hadn't used his Ice cultivation technique to block most of the Fire Seal's attacks just now, he would have been burnt to a crisp.
"Brat, who exactly are you?"
The leader of the Dark Guards asked in a deep voice with a face full of surprise.
"Zhou Yan, my father was the useless Third Young Master back then. Have you forgotten?"
Zhou Yan coldly snorted, and continued: "You bunch of slaves, conspiring with the Zhao Family to harm the direct bloodline, you have committed a heinous crime!"
"What? You..."
Hearing that, the Dark Guard commander's eyes widened.
He never would have thought that the other party would actually be the bastard son who had died a long time ago.
This was treason!
"Zhou Yan, you bastard! You actually dare to frame Mistress!"
The Dark Guard commander was incomparably furious, his entire body emitting a dense killing intent, which swept out like a tide.
These dark guards were all loyal guards of the family, and they swore their loyalty to their master.
Furthermore, they all had deep feelings toward the Zhou family, and they were respectful and hostile toward their bloodline.
Now, Zhou Yan was actually slandering his Mistress.
"I framed her?"
Zhou Yan sneered, and said disdainfully: "I want to see who is framing who?"
"All of you, get the hell out here!"
In the next moment, Zhou Yan roared as his sharp eyes swept across his surroundings.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh...
After that, a few sounds of rushing wind could be heard as a few masked men in black flew over.
Each of them had an extremely powerful aura. They were all Innate Grandmasters!
"Dark Guard Commander, long time no see."
The masked man in the lead sized up Zhou Yan and said with a faint smile.
"So it's you!" The Dark Guard Commander's pupils contracted as he exclaimed with a face full of shock.
This masked man was the former Dark Guard Commander, Li Hu.
"Dark guard captain, we finally meet again," Li Hu said.
"Did you come to find me under the orders of the Head of the Family?" the Dark Guard captain asked warily.0
He knew Li Hu's personality. Li Hu was cruel and narrow-minded, so he definitely wouldn't let this go.
"That's right."
Li Hu nodded his head: "I was going to ask for justice from the Zhou family, but I didn't think that the Zhou family would take the money and refuse to return it."
"The Zhou family didn't take it for ourselves!"
Zhou Yan's face turned cold as he said in a deep voice, "The Zhou Family's properties were all built by grandfather. Although my father is a piece of trash, he is still my father."
"I must take back this property."
"Hehe, cut the crap!"
Li Hu coldly said, "It's a fact that your Zhou Family doesn't pay back your debts. I advise you to be tactful and spit out the money yourself. Otherwise, I guarantee that you will suffer a fate worse than death!"
"Hehe, your Zhou family's money is worthless."
Zhou Yan sneered and said bluntly.
"Not worth anything?" Li Hu's face darkened.
At this time, Zhou Yan walked to the side of a stone tablet, raised his finger and pointed at the stone tablet, and said indifferently: "Dark Guard Commander, do you know this stone tablet?"
"This stone tablet is..."
Li Hu looked at it carefully for a few seconds, and his expression immediately changed.
This was because he realized that this stone tablet was exactly the same as the one recorded in the family's ancestral teachings!
However, this stone tablet in front of him was even more ancient and gave off an ancient and savage aura.
"Brat, what do you want to do?" the captain of the Dark Guard asked with a solemn expression.
"It's very simple. There are eight words on this stone tablet: 'The descendants of the Zhou family are thriving.'"
Zhou Yan smiled faintly and continued, "As far as I know, my father has been dead for more than twenty years. Then, it's time for this stone tablet to change owners."
"What do you mean?" The commander of the Dark Guards asked in confusion.
"I think that with your brain, you should understand what I mean." The corner of Zhou Yan's mouth curled up into a strange smile.
"You... You are Zhou Haotian's son?"
Hearing this, the expression of the commander of the Dark Guards immediately changed. He cried out in alarm, and his face instantly turned incomparably pale.
At this moment, he was in complete panic. Sweat broke out on his forehead, and he almost fell to the ground.
He would never have thought that this foppish fool in front of him was actually Zhou Haotian's son!
"Dark Guard Commander, do you still think that this matter has nothing to do with my mother?" Zhou Yan said coldly.
"No... Impossible! Your father has already been dead for more than twenty years. This is definitely fake." The Dark Guard Commander said while trembling.
"Fake?"
Zhou Yan laughed wildly and mocked, "How can there be any ghosts in this world?"
