C1607 It Was too Late
At the same time, in a remote estate, in front of a man and a woman, a young man was kneeling on the ground, and behind him an old woman in white was sitting on a chair, staring coldly at the young man.
"I said that you shouldn't have left the clan, you shouldn't have betrayed the clan!"
The white clothed old woman's pretty face became exceptionally gloomy as she stared at the young man kneeling on the ground.
The young man in front of her also emitted a sharp baleful aura. However, this baleful aura was not very strong. Hence, the white clothed old woman did not pay much attention to it.
However, the young man did not reply. He only gritted his teeth and silently endured the old woman's anger.
The old woman frowned and her eyes were full of coldness, "Do you think you can just stay silent?"
"I don't dare to resist. You can do whatever you want to me."
The young man also gritted his teeth and spoke. His tone was helpless and sad.
In the youth's heart, he had always respected the old woman in white. After all, she was a true Martial Emperor.
His fate was in the hands of the old lady in white.
"As long as you know that you are wrong. For some reason, you have been missing for half a month. Now that you have returned, you should explain everything that has happened. Otherwise, I will expel you from the clan."
Hearing the old woman's words, the young man couldn't help but clench his fists. He naturally understood what the old woman meant.
"This time, I was ordered by the head of the family to search for a special medicine, so I was delayed for a few days. Please punish me."
The youth said in a low voice.
Hearing this, the old woman in white was also slightly startled before she coldly snorted.
In her opinion, this young man was finding an excuse to brush her off.
"Humph. It is good that you have such thoughts. Where have you been for the past half month?"
The old woman in white asked blandly. Although she trusted her son, she didn't want her son to bring her trouble as soon as he came back.
"I went to search for a type of pill, and then I went to the Desolate Mountain Range. There, I met an alchemist. He gave me that pill, and I went to the center of the Desolate Mountain Range. There, I obtained a God Level pill, which was why I was able to break through to the Martial King Realm!"
"What, you actually obtained a God Level pill!?"
Hearing the young man's words, the old woman in white could not help but be shocked. She immediately asked, "Who gave you this God Level pill?"
"That man is an old man. His body is stooped and his face is old, and his entire body is shrouded in a grey fog, making it impossible to detect him. But I think he is an alchemist."
"After he gave me the pill, I left the Desolate Mountain Range and returned."
The young man answered honestly.
Hearing the young man's words, the old woman in white was slightly happy. She knew how precious this pill was.
God Level pill!
That was something that even Martial Emperors dreamed of!
Although Zhou Yan's talent was not as good as Zhou Xuanji's, he was still extremely outstanding and might even surpass him.
If he could consume a God Level pill, his growth would definitely be shocking.
As long as Zhou Yan could advance to the Martial Saint realm, the overall strength of the Zhou Family would be able to increase once again.
And all of this was thanks to one person.
"Who is this old man?"
The old woman in white also asked, her eyes shining with an unusual light.
For her son to be able to obtain a God Level pill, it was not a simple matter. Moreover, a God Level pill was not so easy to refine. Even a weaponsmith would need to spend a lot of time to refine it. Therefore, the person who could obtain such a pill must be extraordinary.
"His name is Zhou Yan, and he is the vice president of the Alchemist Grandmaster Association. It is said that he has an extremely high position in the Alchemist Grandmaster Association. In the association, he is also an extremely special existence. That's why the patriarch sent me to find him. "
The young man replied respectfully.
Hearing the young man's words, the old woman in white was stunned.
Zhou Yan, the vice president of the Alchemist Grandmaster Association?
That was a genuine Martial Saint expert. Furthermore, he seemed to be very old, so how could he be so young?
Could it be that he was an expert who had hidden his cultivation?
The young man on the side also noticed the old woman's confusion and replied with a smile, "My grandfather is an expert of the Martial Emperor Realm, but for some reason, he has already fallen."
... ""
The old woman was completely stunned.
This little brat really hid his strength well!
Martial Emperor!
That was one of the top experts in the entire C Country!
Moreover, according to the legends, their lifespan could reach 3,000 years!
Such a terrifying lifespan was extremely rare in the entire C Country, and they were all old monsters who had lived for a long time.
Yet, such a group of people had actually fallen!
Just who was this young man's grandfather?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The old woman in white couldn't help but ask, "What did you say your grandfather's name was?"
"Grandfather is called Zhou Yan."
The youth replied.
"Zhou Yan!?"
The white clothed old woman also muttered to herself.
Where had she heard this name before?
Suddenly, a figure flashed through her mind.
"Zhou Yan, he... he can't be Zhou Xuanji, right?"
After thinking of Zhou Xuanji, a hint of shock appeared in the old woman's eyes.
Zhou Yan!
The founder of the Zhou clan!
His lifespan was extremely long, almost immortal, but he had never stepped into the Martial Emperor realm.
Moreover, his position in the Alchemist Grandmaster Association was also extraordinary.
He had a great reputation in the entire C Country because in C Country, alchemy was an extremely respected profession. Ordinary Martial Emperors disdained learning alchemy, but the status of alchemists was much stronger than that of Martial Emperors.
Therefore, Zhou Yan's name was widely spread.
This was also the reason why the old woman in white was shocked when she heard the name Zhou Xuanji.
"Are you talking about the Zhou family's head, Zhou Yan?"
The white clothed old woman asked with a trembling voice.
She knew that Zhou Yan, the head of the Zhou family, was a truly important person. He was able to defeat Zhou Haoran, a Martial Lord, when he was only a Martial Emperor, and he was at least seven or eight hundred years old.
Such a person had walked on the path of martial arts for several tens of thousands of years, and his lifespan had also reached an extremely frightening number.
In front of him, his grandson, Zhou Yan, was still too young.
After hearing the old woman's question, Zhou Yan nodded his head heavily.
