From these words, it was not hard to tell that he didn’t have a detailed understanding of what had happened inside the Hongyu Peak stronghold.
Yang Jincai also knew why his reaction was so strong and immediately nodded in response, “Yes, the one who killed Tian Fengyi and other Taoist friends, Zhou Zhengchun, indeed had cultivation at the late Foundation Establishment stage!”
“He was alone?”
The Huoyang Hermit could hardly believe it as he continued to ask.
“He was alone, yes, but he is a beast cultivator and has tamed a few second-order Demon Beasts!”
As Yang Jincai got to this part, he couldn’t help but recall the scene he had witnessed that day.
The majestic figure of the Thunder Flood Dragon and the fierce image of the Golden Winged Tiger that devoured a Foundation Establishment cultivator alive still sent shivers down his spine upon reflection.
And after hearing his words and seeing his shaking like a leaf, the Huoyang Hermit became even more curious about Zhou Chun.
He waved his hand dismissively, “I won’t bother with this letter for now. Taoist Friend Yang, tell me everything about that day in detail, without leaving anything out!”
He spoke as if Yang Jincai was his subordinate.
But although Yang Jincai was not his subordinate, at this moment he dared not defy his command and could only recount everything he knew about that day honestly.
When he finished, he proactively bowed to absolve himself, “Senior Huoyang, please understand that these were all the events I witnessed that day. As for what happened before, I have no clarity.”
The Huoyang Hermit, however, made no indication regarding his words, as his mind was still reeling from the shocking events described.
To be honest, if he didn’t know that Yang Jincai had no need to deceive him, and surely wouldn’t dare to, the Huoyang Hermit would definitely think he was spouting nonsense.
Could a single person barge into a stronghold guarded by seven Foundation Establishment cultivators, rescue someone, and even slay four Foundation Establishment cultivators, forcing the remaining three who controlled the Guardian Great Formation to surrender? Was this something a Foundation Establishment stage cultivator could achieve?
Let alone the Huoyang Hermit’s disbelief, any Purple Mansion Phase Cultivator who heard of this for the first time would find it hard to believe.
However, the situation as Yang Jincai described it seemed hard to dismiss; indeed, if a Foundation Establishment stage cultivator truly had the resources Zhou Chun possessed, it did seem plausible they could take on many adversaries at once.
This piqued the Huoyang Hermit’s curiosity about Zhou Chun’s background even more.

Therefore, even though he had initially shown no interest in the letter in Yang Jincai’s hand, he now raised his hand to summon it, and began to examine the contents.
But reading the letter was shocking and infuriating. He was shocked to find that Lin Hongyu was not some Loose Cultivator but had a major cultivation family behind her.
What made him angry was that Zhou Chun, a late Foundation Establishment cultivator, had dared to threaten him with such a letter!
He violently threw the letter on the ground and, with a face full of rage, bellowed, “The audacity of this junior!”
This sudden outburst also made Yang Jincai’s legs tremble, and he quickly knelt down, begging, “Senior, please spare my life! I know nothing, I was just here to deliver the letter!”
For a slick operator like him, groveling like this posed no psychological barrier, as it was something he was well accustomed to.
Upon seeing this, the Huoyang Hermit immediately glared at him and commanded, “Go back and tell that junior that he has half a month to come and offer his apologies to me in person; otherwise, I will personally pay a visit to Hongyu Peak and teach Lin Hongyu’s disrespectful junior a lesson!”
“Yes, yes, yes, I will definitely relay the message and inform Taoist Friend Zhou accurately!”
Yang Jincai kept nodding his head and then, like a man fleeing for his life, hurriedly stood up and left the Huoyang Hermit’s place.
Then said, “Taoist Friend Zhou doesn’t understand this Huoyang Hermit, nor do I know whether his words were just to save face or a deliberate provocation. Elder Lin, do you have any thoughts on this?”
Upon hearing his words, Lin Hongyu pondered for a moment before shaking her head and saying, “Actually, I am not particularly familiar with the temperament of the Huoyang Hermit either and cannot discern his true intentions.”
After finishing, she looked seriously at Zhou Chun and said, “However, if I were to decide, I believe the Clan Leader has no need to apologize to him. Doing so would only belittle the respect he and the Zhou Family command!”
“Oh? Why does Elder Lin say so?”
Zhou Chun raised his eyebrows, showing a keen interest and looking at Lin Hongyu for more details.
Lin Hongyu didn’t beat around the bush and immediately explained, “Because the Huoyang Hermit is a true Loose Cultivator, and from my years of interactions with these Loose Cultivators, most of them hold a sense of reverence towards the sects and clan powers.”
“If such a sect or clan shows weakness before them, it’s very likely they’d become even more aggressive in demanding more benefits!”
She herself might not understand why, but upon hearing her words, Zhou Chun immediately grasped the point.
This was because Zhou Chun in his previous life had seen similar people.
An individual who had been oppressed and bullied at the bottom, when one day he turned his fate around and gained the strength to bully others, would bully even more ruthlessly.
Often, only those who have suffered oppression and exploitation knew how to better oppress and exploit others.
It was ironic, but a reality nonetheless.
n Establishment stage Loose Cultivators regarding cultivation problems.
“I understand your point, Elder Lin. Let’s disregard his response and see if he really dares to make a move!”
Zhou Chun nodded, decisively arriving at a conclusion.
