Chapter 161: Chapter 161- Zhang Clan’s Darkest Night

"We are both students who got admission to the Holy Orchard Academy. Of course we will meet again in the future".

Leaving behind those words, Yang Chen walked away, disappearing into the sea of people. But even as he blended into the crowd, Lin Huyin continued to stare in his direction, lost in her own thoughts.

"He is indeed a fine young man" While she was in a daze, an elder with a sharp stature approached her and spoke with a friendly face. He had heard their entire conversation.

"I had heard from Lin Mang that he was the winner of this year’s entrance test and that those obstinate elders of the academy had high praise for him. Unable to believe those words, I came to check for myself. It appears that these words are every bit true".

"Given his achievement and temperament at such a young age, he is destined for greatness at the Holy Orchard Academy. Young miss has good eyes" The Elder teased.

"W-what is the first elder saying, it’s not like that" Embarrassed at the thought, Lin Huyin’s face quickly became as red as a tomato.

"Seeing this side of young miss, now that is a rare sight... haha. In any case, what that young man said is right. You guys can see each other again in the academy. For now, Young Miss should focus on her own path. I’m sure that young miss doesn’t want to lose to him in terms of strength once you meet him again right?"

"Then you must train diligently. You have gained a lot of benefits from the test this time, reaching the next level shouldn’t take you much time".

Lin Huyin nodded her head at Lin Shan’s words, she glanced towards the direction where Yang Chen disappeared to and whispered softly "I hope to meet you once again".

In the bustling streets of the Cloud City, one man and one demon casually strode across. There was no direction or destination they were headed for, they were simply walking along.

As they walked past several establishments and busy streets, bits and pieces of news that occurred in the cloud city in the last few days inadvertently reached their ears.

Amongst those bits of news, one pertained to an incident that shook the cloud city. Zhang Clan, the tyrant of the cloud city had suddenly closed all of their gates, even going as far as to increase the number of guards and patrol.

What’s more, their activities were also quite unlike them. In these past few days, many doctors and pharmacists went in and out of their clan. And they had almost emptied out all the medicinal pills from all the shops.

Many people were curious about the actions of the Zhang clan including the Lin and Xiao clan, the other two prominent clans of the cloud city. However, because the Zhang clan has closed off its gates and restricted any entry.

None of the people here were aware of what was going on inside the clan, they could only speculate as to what was going on.

"Hey brat, I know what you are thinking. However, let me remind you that it’s still too risky. The Zhang clan is the tyrant clan of the Cloud City for a reason, their foundation runs deep. Even if you have weakened them somewhat, usurping them won’t be an easy task"

Amon spoke sitting on Yang Chen’s shoulder.

"I know, however, this is the perfect chance. If I let this go, I would have to wait for a long time and be stuck with this lingering feeling of resentment that the previous soul had inside this body. Besides, this is a great opportunity to increase my level, who knows when those people you mentioned about will come looking for the ring".

"I have no time to waste. Weren’t you the one who told me that I should struggle to survive no matter how pitiful or pathetic that makes me and that the one who always remains standing at the end is the real victor? Then I have no choice but to take this risk. Every level that I gain can help increase my survival chance"

Yang Chen responded with a resolute voice. It seemed he was not going to change his mind.

"Relax, I know what I am doing. I won’t go digging my own grave, after all, this life is precious to me".

Yang Chen had arrived at this decision after much deliberation. He had snuck into the territory of the enemies and had even gathered quite a bit of intel on them.

There were only two people in the entire Zhang clan that he had to be careful about. One of them was the First Elder whose aura was at the late stage of the Battle master rank. However, he was rendered a cripple after Yang Chen fed him the Meridian Poison Pill.

This made one less enemy for him to worry about. The last one was of course the clan leader of the Zhang clan, the person he needed to be most guarded of.

This person was shrouded in a complete mystery, neither Yang Chen nor the previous soul of this body who had slaved so many years in the clan, knew anything about him.

The clan leader of the Zhang clan was the only person on whom Yang Chen failed to get any information.

Even when he posed as an Alchemist, they never showed their face in the clan hall and mostly kept themselves in seclusion. Yang Chen knew that in his objective to raze the entire Zhang clan, this person would be the greatest obstacle in his way.

Nevertheless, it didn’t mean Yang Chen was absolutely helpless against them. Since going through the entrance test, he had grown a lot stronger, he was not the same as when he invaded their clan.

Even if it was the clan leader of the Zhang clan, Yang Chen believed that as long as he went all out he should be able to bring the other party down.
