Chapter 568
Henry subconsciously looked at the patriarch next to him, only to find that the patriarch did not notice the change on his side at all. He stared at the place above their heads with tears.
Henry could roughly understand the state of mind of the patriarch at the moment. The clan that had been passed down for a long time was facing a turning point just as it was about to decline. This feeling was like winning a lottery.
The wind in the valley was like a breeze, but it caused huge waves in his heart.
As time went by, the breeze gradually spread throughout the whole valley. The people in the valley began to gather here. Everyone had already guessed what was happening. It could be seen that everyone who came to this place slowed down, and their faces were full of excitement.
Some people even sat cross-legged on the ground and began to breathe greedily.
More and more people gathered in the valley. This was definitely the most crucial thing in the Tang family Citadel!
No one had anything else to say. Everyone had a silent tacit understanding. They came over and sat down.
Henry also sat down and crossed his legs. Except for comfortable breathing, he felt no other changes. The main thing was the lotus above his head.
For Henry now the lotus represented a big question mark. If he could not solve this problem, he would not be able to relax.
Henry sat quietly here. He was the closest to the Energy Emitting Formation, so he got the most benefits.
He could clearly feel that the lotus above his head was getting more and more solid. He specifically shook his head. Such a move had little effect on the lotus.
Time passed by. The Qi from the stone had a calming effect.
Henry's eyes gradually closed, and his breathing became gentle.
The breeze blew a bit of coolness. Henry shivered and opened his eyes, only to find that it was already dark in front of him. Unexpectedly, it was already nighttime!
A bright moon was high in the sky. Through the valley, one could only see a trail of moonlight. Most of the people who were sitting in the valley had already left, leaving only a few people still sitting here, trying to cultivate.
A lot of people felt even more uncomfortable sitting with their legs crossed than doing their training under the scorching sun.
Henry felt that the lotus on his head was much stronger than before.
Henry was sitting with his legs crossed for a long time, which made his legs a little numb. He shook his legs and was about to leave when he heard a wind-breaking sound coming from the side.
Henry didn't even think about it. The muscles of his body reflexively contracted. When he turned around, he looked at the place where he had just stood, and three arrows were inserted there. The arrows were sharp and pierced the ground directly.
He frowned and looked at the place where the sharp arrow flew from, only to see that the man in red was standing not far away from him. Besides the man in red, there was a middle-aged woman and a middle-aged man. Henry had seen the two people who followed the man in red at the dinner yesterday. They were all high-level officials of the Tang clan.
At this moment, each of them was holding a hand crossbow, and the three arrows were shot by them.
"You're lucky. If you woke up a second later, your head would be nailed to the ground." The man in red stared at Henry and sneered.
Henry got up from the ground, frowned and looked at the three people, and said in a low voice, "Is this the decision made by the three of you or by the Tang clan?"
"Is there any difference?" The man in red smiled indifferently. "I stand for the Tang clan."
Hearing the man in red's words, Henry was relieved a lot. If it were the Tang clan's order, it would be more challenging to deal with. He was not afraid of conflicts with the Tang Clan, but he was worried that this cooperation would be ruined. After all, he had to strengthen Radiant Island.
Henry chuckled at the man in red. "As far as I know, you are not the patriarch, are you?"
"Don't worry. I will be soon!" The man in red sneered and shot another sharp arrow at Henry.
Facing this sharp arrow, Henry didn't make any more moves. He just dodged it with a slight flash.
"Do you three pieces of trash think that you are worthy of being my opponents?" Henry clenched his fist. He deliberately spoke to delay time, so that he could take this opportunity to understand how stable the lotus flower above his head was.
"You are just a junior who has just entered the Qi-controlling Realm. Don't be too arrogant!" The middle-aged woman shouted. She pulled out two machetes from the back of her waist and suddenly rushed toward Henry.
The machetes brought a cold light in the dark night.
Seeing his opponent rushing towards him, Henry raised his fists. He was sure that the lotus above his head could bear at least 50% of his current strength. In that case, it should be easy to deal with these people.
He did not even need 50% of his strength. Only 40% of his strength was enough to deal with the three in front of him.
Although these three people were much older than Henry, in terms of combat experience, Henry had come out of the sea of blood and corpses. Therefore, the three people together could not match Henry!
Henry punched the middle-aged. The woman stepped back, only to feel her hands numb. She shouted to the side, "Don't just stand there. Let's take him down together!"
"Of course." Another middle-aged man pulled out a thin sword from his waist and rushed from another direction.
The man in red held a big sabre in his hand. The three of them formed a triangular joint attack and rushed toward Henry at the same time.
Facing the trio's attacks, Henry was not afraid at all. He used both fists to counter them.
In the blink of an eye, more than ten moves had been exchanged. Henry had gained the upper hand.
This made the three people feel a chill in their hearts. They knew that Henry had already been able to control his Qi, but they still looked down upon him. This is the property of Nô-velDrama.Org.
The man in red waved his hand and sprayed a handful of powder.
Henry's reaction was very fast. He held his breath and stepped back at the moment when the man in red sprayed the powder.
"Do you think you can hide?" The man in red sneered and did not care about Henry's movements at all.
Henry got out of the powder range. He felt that something was wrong. He found that there was no poison in the powder that the man in red sprinkled, and it did not affect him at all.
At this time, the three rushed to Henry again. Henry defended himself.
After a few more moves, Henry's face changed. He finally understood what this powder was. It was not poison at all, but a kind of thing that could restrict the use of Qi!
When he threw a punch, the Qi in his body gushed out, as if he had encountered some kind of obstacle.
The Qi was restricted, which made Henry incredibly uncomfortable. When he attacked, the power was reduced by more than half. This was not the most important thing. The most important thing was that because the Qi was limited, the lotus above his head began to shake.
