Chapter 1928: Chapter 1928

In the end, under the dean's encouragement, Su Yang decided to visit the Zhang Family and challenge the Martial Champion.

Upon reaching the entrance of the Zhang Family, from afar, Su Yang saw Zhang Congwen standing at the gate, accompanied by several key figures of the Zhang Family, including Zhang the Seventh and Zhang the Eighth, all inside waiting.

It seemed as if these people were waiting for Su Yang. As soon as he approached, Zhang Congwen came to greet him first, clasping his hands from afar and saying, "Su Alliance Leader, we meet again!"

Su Yang clasped his hands in return, pondering how to tactfully explain his purpose for coming. After all, the Zhang Family had helped him when he left previously.

Before he could speak, Zhang Congwen had already said, "My father has been waiting for a long time. This way, please, Su Alliance Leader!"

Su Yang was taken aback; the Martial Champion was waiting for him? What did this mean? Did the Martial Champion know he was coming? Had the dean told him beforehand?

Filled with doubts, Su Yang followed Zhang Congwen into the main courtyard. As they walked, he curiously asked, "Did the dean come here before?"

"No!" Zhang Congwen replied with a subtle smile. "The dean and my father have differing views and haven't set foot in the Zhang Family since a disagreement years ago."

"Then how did Elder Zhang know I was coming?" Su Yang asked curiously.

"With the current strength of Su Alliance Leader, isn't visiting my Zhang Family a matter of time?" Zhang Congwen smiled softly. "It's just that you were busy before, so there was no time to visit. Now that the Divine Palace's affairs are resolved, you are sure to come for a visit!"

Su Yang was even more bewildered. It seemed everyone knew he would come, as if his strength, once reached this level, meant he had to visit the Zhang Family. But why? Why does reaching this level of strength mean he must visit the Zhang Family?

Reflecting on Qi Zhishan's challenge to the Martial Champion, and recalling the dean's words, Su Yang became increasingly puzzled.

It seemed everyone had a common understanding that reaching a certain level of strength meant challenging the Martial Champion. But the key question is, why do this?

Su Yang had no clue about the reason. If not for the dean urging him to come, he certainly wouldn't have come here! Check latest chapters at novel•fire.net

"Does my having this strength have any relevance to challenging the Martial Champion?" Su Yang asked, puzzled.

Zhang Congwen glanced at Su Yang, smiled softly, and didn't answer. Turning a corner, he led Su Yang into the courtyard at the back.

The courtyard was spacious, with only three straw huts in the middle of it. Zhang Congwen stopped here and smiled, "Su Alliance Leader, my father is waiting for you in the hut ahead. Please feel free to go in."

Su Yang's heart was full of questions, but seeing Zhang Congwen's demeanor, he realized no further information could be gleaned from him. So Su Yang simply stopped overthinking and went straight toward the huts.

Just as he arrived at the front of the hut, the door opened before he could enter. Out first was an old man with white hair and a long white beard, followed closely by a monk in tattered robes.

"Su Alliance Leader, you have finally arrived!" The old man clasped his hands towards Su Yang.

Su Yang was surprised. He recognized this old man as the one who pushed him away when he passed through the Zhang Family. However, judging by the old man's demeanor, he didn't appear to be the Martial Champion.

At this moment, the monk beside him laughed softly and said, "Su Alliance Leader, do not be confused. My senior brother is inside, and this is his personal attendant."

Su Yang was astonished; this white-bearded old man was actually the personal attendant of the Martial Champion?

He had previously heard Black Widow mention that three individuals in the Zhang Family had strength comparable to the Beigong War God and others, including the Martial Champion's personal attendant.

Unexpectedly, this white-bearded old man was indeed the personal attendant of the Martial Champion.

Yet, this old man's strength was genuinely formidable. Estimatedly, he was even more powerful than the Beigong War God and others!

It seemed Black Widow's information was also inaccurate.

Of course, Su Yang was more shocked by the strength of the Martial Champion himself.

Given that the personal attendant was so formidable, how terrifying must the Martial Champion's own strength be?

After a moment's silence, Su Yang suddenly widened his eyes and looked sharply at the monk beside him, exclaiming, "You... Are you Master Jie Ye!?"

Su Yang had never seen Mahakaya before, but he had heard that Mahakaya was the disciple of the Martial Champion.

Now, this monk called the Martial Champion senior brother—there was no need to say more about his identity.

The monk beside him was indeed Mahakaya. He smiled and put his hands together, "Amitabha Buddha, that is indeed me!"

"You...you truly are Master Jie Ye?" Su Yang was overjoyed. The dean had worried whether Mahakaya had encountered mishaps, but finding Mahakaya here meant there were no issues at all.

"The dean was looking for me?" Mahakaya asked with a gentle smile. Observing Su Yang's expression, he pretty much guessed what had transpired.

"Yes!" Su Yang nodded quickly, narrating the events after the dean and he entered the basement.

Mahakaya did not conceal the matter, recounting how the Divine Master attempted to open the Boundary Point to the Asura Realm in the basement.

Su Yang listened in trepidation. He had previously taken the Investiture of the Gods without realizing this point. Upon hearing Mahakaya, he understood that he narrowly escaped causing a disaster.

If the Divine Master had opened the seal to the Asura Realm, allowing the Asura Clan into the Human World, it would indeed have been a calamity!

Fortunately, Mahakaya and the Martial Champion stopped the Divine Master, preventing a catastrophe.

"Thank you, Master Jie Ye and Elder Zhang, for fighting for the Human Clan!" Su Yang said, clasping his hands in heartfelt gratitude.

"No need to thank my master. My master doesn't fight for the Human Clan and has no interest in doing so!" The white-bearded old man beside him spoke directly.

Su Yang glanced at the old man, whose expression remained indifferent, appearing quite aloof.

However, Su Yang didn't mind. This old man had helped him greatly before by sending him away.

Mahakaya noticed the awkwardness in the atmosphere and quickly smiled, "Su Alliance Leader, please enter the room. My senior brother has been waiting for a long time."

Su Yang nodded and followed the two inside.

Su Yang initially thought the straw hut was small, but upon entering the room, he discovered it was actually quite spacious. More accurately, it was unexpectedly spacious.

From the outside, this straw hut seemed no larger than a room; yet once inside, it appeared akin to a grand hall, extremely vast, with no end visible on either side.

Su Yang was astonished. He realized that he had entered another space.
