The Mad Sheng Hao

There was an error earlier, so I'd like to clarify: Ying Qiang's mental cultivation broke through from Mid-grade Divine Human to High-grade Divine Human, which is the Spirit Venerable realm! Also, the original master of the Chaos Yin Yang Realm was the Chaos Heavenly Venerable!

"Young Master Ying, please wait a moment, I will go and report right away!" As soon as the gatekeeper saw Ying Qiang, he immediately went in to report. Ying Qiang had been to the Lan Mansion several times, and the gatekeeper already recognized him.

After a while, Lan Hai Tian also came out. He came specifically to pick up Ying Qiang. Since the final of the martial arts contest for marriage that day, Ying Qiang's reputation has soared. Many people say that he is the strongest of the new generation, and that Sheng Hao only won because of the Saint Artifact.

Given that Ying Qiang is such a person, how could Lan Hai Tian not try to curry favor with him?

"Who is this?" Lan Hai Tian asked, looking at the Nine Nether Spirit Venerable. He was startled, not only because he could not sense the aura of the person in front of him, but more importantly... Ying Qiang was standing next to the person in front of him, looking very respectful.

"Could it be... Nine Nether Spirit Venerable? I know the head of the Ying Family, and only Nine Nether Spirit Venerable could command such respect from Ying Qiang!" Lan Hai Tian's heart began to stir with waves of emotion.

Ying Qiang transmitted his voice, "This is indeed my master, Nine Nether Spirit Venerable. My master needs to see the Carefree King now. Please, Master Lan, introduce him."

Lan Hai Tian immediately nodded. He knew that the Nine Nether Spirit Venerable's identity was extraordinary and could not be made public, which was why Ying Qiang had sent a telepathic message earlier.

"Please follow me..." Lan Hai Tian immediately led the way, heading towards the courtyard where Zhang Xingfeng was.

The Lan Mansion is indeed very large, with winding pavilions and towers inside. Although the Lan Mansion is much smaller than the Five Great Families' mansions, thanks to Lan Hai Tian's design, the feeling inside is not much different from that of the Five Great Families' mansions.

"This is the residence of Senior Carefree King!" Lan Hai Tian pointed to the courtyard in front of him and introduced it to Nine Nether Spirit Venerable and Ying Qiang.

Zhang Xingfeng stood in front of the flowerbed, but stared straight ahead with a somewhat melancholy look in his eyes. Clearly, he wasn't admiring the scenery.

Since rejecting Ying Rou that day, Zhang Xingfeng was shocked to find that he would think of Ying Rou from time to time. This made him hate himself. He had not yet found Yuwen Rou, but he was thinking about someone else.

Yuwen Rou was the first woman to capture his heart, and she remained captivating to him. No matter how many years passed, he could never forget Yuwen Rou. Now he had hope of finding her, but fate played another cruel trick on him: the art of spirit identification required reaching its highest level to perceive a person's past life!

"Rou, where are you?" Zhang Xingfeng murmured to himself.

As soon as the Nine Nether Spirit Venerable entered the courtyard, he saw Zhang Xingfeng's back, that desolate figure...

Suddenly, Nine Nether Spirit Venerable was shocked. He was astonished to find that he could not sense the aura of the Carefree King at all. Most importantly, the Carefree King's body was beginning to appear and disappear, as if it were about to completely merge into the space.

Suddenly, the body of the Carefree King vanished, disappearing into the entire space...

At this moment, Zhang Xingfeng was in a dazed state. He had been thinking of Rou, a gentle longing that gradually became ingrained in his mind and body. Slowly, his mind went completely blank, as if he were thinking of nothing and knowing nothing. In that instant, his body completely disappeared, merging into the space around him.

At the same instant, Zhang Xingfeng was fully awakened. Only then did he realize that he had entered that wondrous state just a moment ago. In the past, he only had the opportunity to do so when practicing the fifth move of "Zero Point Split Strike". However, this time, he did not use that move.

Zhang Xingfeng slowly closed his eyes, fully sensing the change in that instant. He knew that someone else had come to the courtyard, but Zhang Xingfeng didn't care at all. He was using his Absolute Space at all times. This Absolute Space was now completely on the surface of his skin. Even if the strongest expert in the Spirit Realm attacked him, Zhang Xingfeng wouldn't care.

And so, Zhang Xingfeng continued his cultivation, oblivious to everyone else...

"Master? The Carefree King ..." Ying Qiang pointed at the Carefree King in front of him, and the Nine Nether Spirit Venerable immediately signaled Ying Qiang to be quiet.

At this moment, Zhang Xingfeng's figure would appear and disappear intermittently, but the time he disappeared was getting longer and the time he appeared was getting shorter and shorter... Finally, Zhang Xingfeng's figure completely disappeared and never appeared again. After waiting for almost the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, Zhang Xingfeng's figure reappeared.

Zhang Xingfeng slowly turned around and smiled at Ying Qiang and Nine Nether Spirit Venerable.

"Is that Senior Nine Nether Spirit Venerable?" Zhang Xingfeng has changed a lot now, and even Nine Nether Spirit Venerable can no longer hide his power from him.

Zhang Xingfeng was able to merge into the space by relying on the fifth move of "Zero Point Split Strike" back then, but now Zhang Xingfeng can merge into the space at any time, which is far higher than Sheng Hao's level of using the Chaos Spirit.

"Perhaps now I truly comprehend the Principle of space!" A thought struck Zhang Xingfeng, granting him the ability to sense the power of anyone in the entire space. No matter who it was, even if their power surpassed Zhang Xingfeng, Zhang Xingfeng Zhang Xingfeng easily detect them, because he didn't use his own power to observe others, but rather the Principle of space!

The Principle supersede power, unless you... break through to the Celestial Venerable realm and transcend the Principle.

Nine Nether Spirit Venerable cupped his hands and said, "Hehe, I am indeed Nine Netherworld. In front of the Carefree King, I, Nine Netherworld, dare not call myself a senior. The Carefree King's mental cultivation is much higher than that of Nine Netherworld!"

Comprehending the Principle of space is not easy. First, one's mental cultivation must reach the level of a celestial being before one can further perceive the Principle of space. Then, one must comprehend the Principle time in order to become a celestial being.

Although Nine Nether Spirit Venerable did not know this principle, the scene of Zhang Xingfeng merging into the space just now made him realize that there was still a gap between him and Zhang Xingfeng, at least in terms of mental cultivation.

Zhang Xingfeng smiled and said, "If you two have anything to discuss, please come to the side and we can sit down and talk it over."

Ying Qiang thought to himself, "Perhaps if you knew the news, you wouldn't be so calm and collected!"

After the three sat down, Zhang Xingfeng poured some tea and said, "It is an honor for me, the Carefree King, to have the Spirit Venerable here. First of all, I have a request that I hope the Carefree King will grant."

"What is it? Just tell me, and I, Jiuyou, will tell you whatever I know, Carefree King!" said Nine Nether Spirit Venerable.

"I hope the Spirit Lord can teach me the art of spirit identification. I'm searching for my wife, Yuwen Rou, but the area of hundreds of thousands of people is too vast. I'd better search them one by one myself." Zhang Xingfeng looked at the Nine Nether Spirit Venerable, confident that he would agree.

"No!" Nine Nether Spirit Venerable said calmly.

Upon hearing this, Zhang Xingfeng frowned slightly.

"Why?" Zhang Xingfeng seemed very calm.

Nine Nether Spirit Venerable laughed, "Because I already know Yuwen Rou's identity in the Spirit Realm!"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Xingfeng could no longer maintain his calm and composed demeanor. He immediately stood up abruptly and asked, trembling, "Who is it?"

"Ying Rou!" Nine Nether Spirit Venerable looked at Zhang Xingfeng with a half-smile.

Zhang Xingfeng was stunned. The expression on his face was quite interesting: excitement? A wry smile? Helplessness? Surprise?

"God, are you playing a trick on me?!" Zhang Xingfeng shouted, but he couldn't hide his excitement and panic. Even Ying Qiang could feel Zhang Xingfeng's excitement because Zhang Xingfeng's hands were trembling slightly.

"No, Spirit Lord, is there any way to help Rou regain her memories? Otherwise, even though she's with me, she has no memories of the past..." Zhang Xingfeng was a little troubled.

Nine Nether Spirit Venerable smiled and said, "Don't worry, breaking through the memory seal is something anyone who has reached the Low-grade Divine Human can do. Ying Rou has just broken through and is only one step away from becoming Low-grade Divine Human. Moreover, she is Innate Yin Spirit. As long as I help her a little, she can break through the memory seal!"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Xingfeng was overjoyed. "Haha... good, good, good! This is wonderful!" Zhang Xingfeng was extremely excited.

"Brother Feng, what's making you so happy?" Yu Yan walked over.

Zhang Xingfeng immediately walked up to Yu Yan and said excitedly, "Rou has been found! Your sister Rou has been found! She is Ying Rou, the Ying Rou I rejected! Ah, God really knows how to play tricks on people!"

Upon hearing this, Yu Yan jumped up in surprise. "Ah, we found Sister Rou? It's Ying Rou! That's wonderful, wonderful!" Yu Yan recalled the days she spent with Yuwen Rou and her heart was filled with excitement.

"Let's go! Let's go! Spirit Lord, you must come with us. Helping Rou break through the memory seal is all up to you!" Zhang Xingfeng said immediately.

Nine Nether Spirit Venerable immediately said, "Hehe, it's just a small matter. Leave it to me. Hmph, I, Nine Netherworld Lord, can even break the seal on a newly born Earth Spirit Person, let alone Ying Rou, who possesses Innate Yin Spirit and whose power is close to that of Low-grade Divine Human."

Nine Nether Spirit Venerable was just bragging. If he really wanted to break the seal on a newly born spirit, he would probably have to use all his power and it would take him a long time to recover. Ying Rou, on the other hand, is different. Her power is now around the early stage of Immortal Emperor, and she has Innate Yin Spirit. Breaking through the memory seal is not difficult for her at all.

Immediately, Zhang Xingfeng, Yu Yan, Nine Nether Spirit Venerable, and Ying Qiang rushed towards Ying Rou's residence.

Sheng Hao stood outside the Ying Family with a half-smile on his face.

Ying Rou was in one of the courtyards of the Ying Family, while Sheng Hao openly walked through the main gate.

"Sheng Hao, please allow me to inform the master if there is anything you need! Please wait outside for a moment!" The guard at the Sheng Hao Ying Family gate recognized Sheng Hao and immediately said respectfully.

Sheng Hao frowned slightly, flicked his finger, and a ray of light flashed. A round hole appeared on the guard's forehead, and he immediately collapsed to the ground. Sheng Hao had just killed the guard's natal spirit!

"How dare you, Sheng Hao! You have openly murdered Ying Family! You must come with me immediately to apologize to the family head!" A guard team from the Ying Family rushed over.

With flashes of light in Sheng Hao's hands, these guards had no power to resist. Instantly, a round hole appeared on the foreheads of these guards, and their natal ghosts were killed one by one.

Sheng Hao walked directly towards the courtyard where Ying Rou lived.

"How dare you, Sheng Hao, kill my Ying Family! Four elders, seize this man!" At the command of the Ying Family head, the Great Elder of the Ying Family immediately rushed over. The Great Elder of the Ying Family were no small figures; they were experts at the Mid-grade Divine Human level.

This also demonstrates the strength of the Ying Family, which ranks second among the Five Great Families. The Ying Family originally had five members at the Emperor Rank, and now, with the addition of Ying Qiang, that makes six!

The Ying Family, Yan family, and Jiao Family each only have two or three members, but the Sheng Family is the most terrifying, with eight members reaching the Emperor Rank!

"Four Mid-grade Divine Human, let's see how arrogant you, Sheng Hao, are. Even if you have Saint Artifact, you can't deal with my Great Elder!" The head of the Ying Family sneered. Of course, the Saint Artifact he was referring to was a low-grade Saint Artifact, not a top-grade Saint Artifact. If he had known that Sheng Hao had a top-grade Saint Artifact, he probably wouldn't have sent his Great Elder.

"Snort!"

With a cold snort, the circular mark in the center of Sheng Hao's forehead suddenly lit up, and the four elders, four super experts who had reached the Mid-grade Divine Human realm, vanished instantly.

"Don't mess with me, or today will be the day your Ying Family is destroyed!" Sheng Hao's voice was extremely cold.

The head of the Ying Family was stunned, dumbfounded! The people of the Ying Family were also dumbfounded. The Great Elder of the Ying Family, the four top experts who had reached the Mid-grade Divine Human, were gone just like that! They didn't even see Sheng Hao make a move. The circular mark on the forehead of the Ying Family suddenly lit up, and their Great Elder were gone.

Upon hearing Sheng Hao's last words, the head of the Ying Family was shocked and immediately refrained from making a move. He knew that even if he, who was also Mid-grade Divine Human, were to make a move, the outcome would likely be the same as that of the Great Elder.

Sheng Hao slowly walked to the outside of Ying Rou's courtyard.

"Ying Rou, I'm here. From today onwards, you are mine! Come, I'll take you to your new home. I've built a luxurious palace on a planet called Ying Rou Star. The entire planet belongs to us!" Sheng Hao said loudly and affectionately from outside the pavilion.

Ying Rou slowly walked out, stood outside the pavilion, glanced coldly at Sheng Hao, and said icily, "Get out!"

Sheng Hao laughed, a wild and unrestrained laugh, as if he had obtained some extraordinary treasure. He laughed maniacally, "Haha... haha..."

Suddenly, Sheng Hao stopped laughing, his face instantly darkening. "I'll leave? Fine, at least I'll take you with me!"

Sheng Hao flashed up to the pavilion.

"My master, the Nine Nether Spirit Venerable, has returned. You'd better stay put!" Ying Rou frowned slightly and said calmly.

Sheng Hao scoffed, "Him? Heh, Ying Rou, it seems you don't know yet. Now I possess a top-tier Saint Artifact. Hmph, although I'm only Mid-grade Divine Human, with a top-tier Saint Artifact, even a Spirit Venerable would need at least a mid-grade Saint Artifact to compare with me. So... now I'm your brother! Haha... you'd better come with me!"

After saying that, Sheng Hao flashed and grabbed Ying Rou. The difference between Mid-grade Divine Human and an early-stage Immortal Emperor was simply too great.

"Stop!" With a loud shout, Zhang Xingfeng and the others appeared outside the pavilion.
