Chapter 25
From This Day Forward, the Small Official is Called Zhang Qiling

Just then, the young man walked over and came to the side of the acting clan leader.

He untied the golden whip wrapped around his neck.

Zhang Bei was helpless; he could only watch the young man release the person.

“Are you sure you want to accept that so-called bullshit legacy?” Zhang Bei asked.

The young man nodded and said, “He's right, the Zhang family has become rotten to the core.

It's time to end all this, and I will be the end of it all.

Besides, I have no choice, just stop making a fuss, you're the only friend I have.”

After listening to the young man’s words, Zhang Bei finally sighed.

“Alright! I promise you, but this is the blade I made for you, you have to take it.”

Zhang Bei flicked his hand; the golden whip pulled the black gold ancient blade over.

Then he personally handed the black gold ancient blade to the young man.

“Do you like it?” Zhang Bei asked.

The young man didn’t answer, just nodded, but Zhang Bei knew he liked it.

From then on, the young man would also have his own exclusive weapon.

This weapon was forged by Zhang Bei with Divine Machine Hundred Refinement; it had many functions.

Of course, these would need to be discovered by the young man himself in the future.

“Good, you wear it from now on, even if you accidentally lose it, don't be afraid.

You will find it yourself, even if you really lose your memory, you will feel its presence.”

Zhang Bei explained to the young man.

“Good!” The young man nodded.

Looking at the young man’s solemn expression, Zhang Bei said, “If things become impossible, don’t take any risks.

I don’t believe it, I will help you find your past even if I have to travel across thousands of mountains and rivers.”

“Thanks!”

The young man said to Zhang Bei. Although his tone remained cold, his expression was impassive.

But Zhang Bei and the young man had known each other for so long, he naturally knew that the young man was really grateful to him.

After speaking, the young man put the long blade on his back and silently came to the side of the coffin.

An elder holding a poisoned wine trembled as he came to the young man’s side.

His eyes kept looking at Zhang Bei, this was a ruthless man.

With one blade, he cut off the hand of another elder. The strange whip, one whip knocked down more than ten people.

Two whips, the Zhang family couldn’t continue to attack, no one dared to.

Who would have thought that the most useless person in the family would have such great power.

“Wait!”

Suddenly Zhang Bei shouted again.

Hearing the shout, the elder's wine almost fell to the ground.

The young man was quick, and immediately took the wine jug.

“I don't care what conditions the young man negotiated with you, I want to add one more thing now!”

Zhang Bei looked at the acting clan leader.

“You say it!” The acting clan leader reluctantly asked.

Zhang Bei said, “I know, if the young man accepts the legacy, then you are free.

You will leave, but if one day the young man calls, the young man is in trouble.

If you dare to disobey his orders as the clan leader, I will pull each and every one of you out.

Don't blame me for being ruthless then, I will kill one if I find one, until I kill you all.

If you don't believe me, try it!”

“I dare not! It was wrong of us in the first place, we will definitely answer the clan leader's summons in the future.”

The acting clan leader immediately said, not daring to refuse at all.

Zhang Bei finally shut up; he had done everything he could.

Even if he stopped the young man, the young man would probably sneak off to accept the so-called legacy.

Because he knew the young man very well, in all the years they had been together, he knew the young man’s character very well.

The young man also looked at Zhang Bei, then drank the wine in his hand.

The wine didn’t know what kind of poison it was, after the young man drank it, his body staggered.

He was about to fall to the ground with a blackout. Zhang Bei immediately rushed over and helped the young man up.

“Is this really just a fake death potion?” Zhang Bei asked.

The acting clan leader quickly said, “His Kirin bloodline is very pure; any poison is useless against him.

This fake death potion is not poison, it’s a kind of Gu that temporarily blocks his six senses.

The Gu will leave his body on its own in an hour, he will naturally wake up.”

Zhang Bei didn’t make things difficult for him; instead, he carried the young man into the coffin.

At this time, several strong men quickly closed the coffin lid.

“Lift, lift the coffin!”

Dong Shu said to Zhang Bei, looking a little shaky.

Saying that, the strong men were about to carry the coffin away.

“Wait!” Zhang Bei shouted again.

This raised everyone’s hearts to their throats. They were afraid that Zhang Bei would change his mind.

Just now it was the young man who stopped Zhang Bei. Now the young man had fainted.

They didn’t think anyone else could stop Zhang Bei.

“I will carry the coffin myself!” Zhang Bei said in a deep voice.

Hearing this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. What else was there to say.

As long as it didn’t affect their plan, even if Zhang Bei was going to tear down the entire Zhang family, they would agree.

“I will too!”

At this time, Zhang Hai Xing suddenly rushed out.

“Don't cause trouble, this funeral is very dangerous, it's not a place you can go.”

Zhang Hai Xing’s father hurriedly pulled her.

Zhang Bei turned his head to look, none of the former Scorpion Team members were willing to step forward.

Zhang Bei didn’t say anything; he didn’t have any hope for them in the first place.

Only Zhang Hai Xing was worth getting to know, but only getting to know, that’s all.

These members of the Zhang family who betrayed the young man, betrayed the Zhang family, they thought of themselves as the Zhang family, in fact, they were not qualified.

“Don’t worry, even if the whole world abandons you, I will not abandon you.

Even if the whole world betrays you, I will not betray you!”

Zhang Bei carried the coffin and silently said in his heart.

This was his only friend, one who was orphaned from a young age and ridiculed by everyone.

One who was born a 废柴, and ridiculed by countless people.

Although Zhang Bei was from the future, the original owner of this body still deeply influenced his thoughts.

This might be the original owner's 执念. Then let this 执念 be completely shattered.

From the Zhang family’s ancestral hall to the Zhang family’s ancient tower wasn’t very far.

Besides, the northeast Zhang family’s ancient tower was located within the Zhang family’s ancestral land.

Countless clan members automatically lined up in two rows to send off the young man.

But Zhang Bei knew that these people were only hoping that the young man would succeed.

Finally, under the gaze of countless people, they arrived in front of a huge ancient tower.

Dong Shu hurriedly came to the front of the ancient tower and placed a bronze-like object on the door.

Then the Zhang family's ancient tower automatically opened.

Except for the four carrying the coffin, everyone else gathered in front of the Zhang family’s ancient tower.

Their eyes were full of hope, but Zhang Bei hated this kind of hope.

As the four carried the coffin inside, the door of the Zhang family’s ancient tower suddenly closed on its own.

“Bang!”

The ancient tower, which was originally pitch black, suddenly lit up with flames for some unknown reason.

As if the existence within this ancient tower also knew that they were going to welcome a new clan leader.

Zhang Bei wanted to take the opportunity to take a look at the Zhang family’s ancient tower, but he found that the entire tower was shrouded in a hazy mist.

Although it was brightly lit, it only illuminated one path.

After going out from this path, there was actually a bridge in front.

On the right side of the bridge was a Kirin statue, while on the left side was a 窮奇 statue.

Looking at these two statues, Zhang Bei only felt that they were coming to life.

After crossing this bridge, they came to a huge platform.

Countless coffins were embedded in the surrounding stone walls, including many bronze coffins and gold-threaded 楠木 coffins.

The coffin bearers quickly arrived in front of a strange device.

Seeing this device, Zhang Bei's first reaction was the cremation furnace of a funeral parlor. It felt like they were about to cremate someone.

In front of this device was a platform, with unknown patterns carved on it.

After putting the coffin down, two of the coffin bearers came to the platform.

They cut their palms with their knives, and a lot of blood flowed onto the platform.

As the blood flowed over the pattern, Zhang Bei discovered that it was a Kirin.

“Clack clack!”

Two holes then appeared on the platform.

Another Zhang clan member who carried the coffin immediately inserted it into the hole using the 发丘探穴 Golden Two-Finger technique.

The device, which looked like a cremation furnace, immediately opened.

A stone slab extended out from it.

“Just put the coffin on top.”

One of the men said to Zhang Bei.

Zhang Bei frowned. It looked like a funeral parlor's cremation furnace no matter how you looked at it.

But he still followed the man’s instructions and placed the young man’s coffin on top.

As the coffin was placed, the stone slab retracted immediately. Once the coffin went in.

It sank immediately. Zhang Bei was startled and was about to rush to rescue him, but the device closed up again.

“Don’t worry! This is the Zhang family’s funeral custom, there won’t be any problems.”

One of the men said to Zhang Bei.

Zhang Bei looked up; he recognized this guy. He wasn’t very nice to him, nor was he very bad.

“Young man? Will he be alright?” Zhang Bei asked.

The man shook his head and said, “No, this mechanism will send him to the bottom of the Zhang family’s ancient tower.

Once the time is up, he will wake up, there will be no problems.”

“Go, go, you can’t stay in the Zhang family’s ancient tower for long.” Another man said.

Zhang Bei said, “I want to wait here for him.”

“Then you won’t be able to wait, if he comes out successfully, he won’t come out from here, if you want to wait, go wait outside.”

The man who knew Zhang Bei said to him helplessly.

Zhang Bei frowned, but still listened to the man and retreated.

The Zhang family’s ancient tower was indeed full of strange things. With Zhang Bei’s current perception, he could actually sense the presence of danger.

What exactly was inside, he didn’t know.
