Zhu Rong: You're the Brother-in-Law I've Set My Heart On!

Next—

Xuan Yang and Zhu Rong were completely locked in a brawl in midair.

Their battle relied purely on their physical bodies, without using any Magic Artifacts at all!

Of course, from that perspective—

Zhu Rong did not use a Magic Artifact because he could not!

Xuan Yang did not use one because he did not want to!

He wanted to defeat Zhu Rong using the Witch Tribe's methods!

Only then could he earn the greatest possible respect from the Ancestral Witches.

Thus, the battle between Xuan Yang and Zhu Rong became a brutal exchange of flesh-and-blood blows.

They collided continuously in the void, their formidable physical strength and terrifying endurance fully displayed at this moment.

Yet in this clash, Xuan Yang ultimately proved superior!

Although Zhu Rong also specialized in cultivating his physical body...

Compared to Xuan Yang, he was still somewhat lacking.

So, in this most primitive form of physical combat against Xuan Yang in the void, he was steadily driven back!

This left every member of the Witch Tribe's settlement utterly dumbfounded!

"That Golden Crow... is so strong!"

"He can actually suppress Ancestral Witch Zhu Rong!"

"I never expected such a powerful existence to exist in the Primordial Wilderness!"

"Yeah! And he's suppressing him with physical strength! That's insanely fierce!"

"..."

The Witch Tribe members in the settlement could not help discussing it among themselves. As they watched Xuan Yang in the void, their eyes were filled with awe.

After all, the Witch Tribe had always revered the strong.

And now, Xuan Yang could keep Ancestral Witch Zhu Rong suppressed throughout the entire battle, so he naturally earned the Witch Tribe's respect.

As for Queen Mother of the West, Hongyun, Zhen Yuanzi, and the others...

They too were staring in stunned disbelief.

To be honest.

If it were them, they truly could not accomplish something like this.

Though they were all at the peak of the Grand Unity Golden Immortal realm—

There were still differences in strength.

For example, if they were ranked by combat power, Queen Mother of the West might be the weakest among them.

Then came Hongyun.

Then came Zhen Yuanzi.

Of course, Zhen Yuanzi ranked higher mainly because he possessed the Earth Book.

Otherwise, his actual combat ability was not much different from Hongyun's.

But whether it was Zhen Yuanzi or Hongyun, if they fought Zhu Rong, they would definitely be beaten from beginning to end.

The Witch Tribe's physical bodies were simply too unreasonable.

And compared to Xuan Yang...

There was even less point in comparing.

Even Zhu Rong was being suppressed by him, so there was no need to mention them.

Thus, Zhen Yuanzi, Hongyun, and Queen Mother of the West truly felt their horizons broadened today.

This was the first time they had understood Xuan Yang's strength so clearly.

Meanwhile.

Di Jiang and the other Ancestral Witches were all smiling.

They did not feel the Slightest Bit embarrassed just because Zhu Rong was getting beaten.

Instead, they greatly admired Xuan Yang for the strength he had displayed.

And do not forget.

Their main purpose in having Zhu Rong spar with Xuan Yang this time was to assess Xuan Yang.

And now, Xuan Yang had clearly handed in an excellent answer.

Thus, as the Ancestral Witches continued watching Xuan Yang, the approval in their eyes grew even stronger.

At this moment, in the void.

"Wonderful! Wonderful!"

Although he had been beaten throughout the fight, Zhu Rong felt his blood boiling.

What he loved most was this kind of hearty, exhilarating battle!

If it had been another cultivator, using some Magic Artifact or the like to forcibly capture him...

Then even if Zhu Rong lost to them, he would not accept it.

Because the other side would have won unfairly!

If you have the ability, then face me head-on!

If you have the ability, then compare physical bodies!

And now, Xuan Yang had done exactly that.

Thus, although Zhu Rong had been beaten the entire time, what he felt was pure exhilaration.

He laughed heartily. "Daoist Friend Xuan Yang, I, Zhu Rong, acknowledge you!"

"Apart from the other eleven Ancestral Witches of our Witch Tribe..."

"Among all the Primordial Wilderness Cultivators I have fought, I am willing to call your physical body the strongest!"

"Next, let me show you my innate Divine Power!"

"Watch out!"

As Zhu Rong's voice fell, Waves Of dazzling red light burst forth from his body.

Then, throughout a vast area centered on him, the temperature instantly soared!

That entire stretch of void seemed to transform directly into a vast sea of fire!

The terrifying heat burned away the air in that region.

Upon seeing this, all the other Ancestral Witches aside from Houtu had curiosity Appeared on their faces.

How would Xuan Yang respond this time?

They had heard that the Three Golden Crows of the Sun Star all wielded Solar True Fire and cultivated the Solar Law.

So then...

How would it compare with Zhu Rong's power?

The Ancestral Witches watched ahead with eager anticipation.

Houtu, however, still wore a grave expression.

In the void.

After seeing that Zhu Rong had used his innate fire talent...

Xuan Yang made his move as well.

He still adhered to his principle—defeating his opponent using the ability his opponent excelled at!

He directly unleashed the Solar Law!

At once, a terrifying heat no weaker than Zhu Rong's Appeared from Xuan Yang's body.

In the area where he stood, a Sky Full Of fire formed as well!

"Go!"

Both sides waved their hands.

After that, two terrifying, towering waves of fire surged madly toward one another.

The two seas of fire instantly exploded! A huge roar rang out, and both combatants were completely swallowed by the flames.

The entire void was dyed the red of searing heat!

Fire rain fell continuously from the sky.

The Ancestral Witches immediately acted to shield the settlement.

But beyond the settlement, disaster struck. Once touched by those flames, trees were burned to ashes, mountains and rocks melted away, and seas evaporated dry!

The power of fire was terrifying indeed!

Yet the gazes of the Ancestral Witches, Zhen Yangzi, Hongyun, and Queen Mother of the West remained fixed upon the void.

They were all very curious as to who would ultimately win this battle.

They watched for a long time. Finally, all the flames in the void converged into Xuan Yang's palm, continuously flowing toward it until they formed a massive fireball.

He swallowed it in one bite, devouring every last trace of flame.

Zhu Rong's massive body then appeared on the other Side, smoke rising from his Entire Body and his skin looking slightly darkened.

Compared to Xuan Yang, Zhu Rong looked somewhat disheveled.

But when he looked at Xuan Yang, his eyes shone brilliantly.

The more he looked, the more pleasing Xuan Yang seemed!

The more he looked, the more satisfied he became!

Now, in Zhu Rong's heart, this was no longer a matter of whether he acknowledged Xuan Yang or not.

Xuan Yang had to be his brother-in-law—no one else would do!

Other than him, who else was qualified to be Houtu's man?

Zhu Rong laughed heartily. "Daoist Friend Xuan Yang, I lost this spar!"

"But I, Zhu Rong, have decided to be your friend!"
