Chapter 55: Teaching a lesson to an arrogant young man

Zhan Chen poured his spiritual energy into the divine diagram and a faint glow appeared on the surface of the diagram. It sucked away his soul and Zhan Chen found himself in the familiar looking hazy atmosphere.

He walked forward and the ancient platform appeared Infront of his eyes. Zhan Chen walked to the top of the raised platform and took a look at the collection of books and scrolls.

This time a book on inscription piqued his interest. There were many kinds of strange books stored on the top of the raised platform but Zhan Chen was looking for the books which was of immediate use to him.

Besides Alchemy, he was also proficient in formation techniques and the formation techniques were considered as a branch of the Inscription techniques. Zhan Chen sat crossegged and opened the book on inscription techniques.

'Mysteries of divine Inscription', the entire book was written in ancient divine language. Zhan Chen turned it's cover and started to read the contents of the book.

"What! One can draw different types of divine symbols after deciphering the laws of heaven", Zhan Chen exclaimed while reading the book of Mysteries of divine Inscription.

An entirely new world appeared Infront of him. The thing that intrigued him the most was the fact that one can use inscription technique on pills. It would enhance the quality of the pill and could help in progressing it's grade. But the most important thing was that it had high demand on spiritual energy. 

Zhan Chen continued to read and he came out only after finishing the book of Mysteries of divine Inscription. "Interesting, such a book could be considered rare even in that legendary world", Zhan Chen thought to himself after reading the book. A look of yearning appeared on his face when he thought about that legendary world.

"I wonder what time it is!", Zhan Chen thought to himself. He came out of the diagram world and threw a look at outside. It was already dark and the Zhan family was well lit with the numerous glowing fire torches.

He spread his soul consciousness to the outside and a dumbfounded look appeared on his face after seeing the crowd gathered inside the Zhan family estate. His mother and aunts were busy in attaining to the guests. His gaze moved elsewhere and he noticed Zhan Qingyue. She was currently speaking with a bunch of pretty looking girls.

A frown appeared on his face after he noticed the infuriated look on the face of Zhan Qingyue. He swiftly came out of his room and walked towards the guest hall of the Zhan family.

"Qingyue, you can't fight him just because you are also from a sect. The Ye family is unlike Gu family. It will be best if Zhan Chen do not come out. Otherwise, no one can do anything to them if something happens to him", a pretty looking girl murmured. She was currently holding the hand of Zhan Qingyue who had an infuriated look on her face.

"Big sis, what is the matter?", the voice of Zhan Chen interrupted their conversation. "Little Chen!", Zhan Qingyue's face changed after she heard the voice of Zhan Chen.

"You are Zhan Chen? You better go away. Otherwise, no one can save you from Ye Lang", the pretty looking girl who was holding the hand of Zhan Qingyue shouted.

"Hmm! And you are?", Zhan Chen asked after hearing the rude voice of the pretty looking girl. 

"You can ask about me later. You should go away now. You can't do anything even you know about this matter", the pretty looking girl replied with an inpatient voice.

"Sister Ting is right. Little Chen, we can talk again later. For now, you should leave the guest hall", Zhan Qingyue spoke with an anxious voice.

"Tsk! Tsk, what is the hurry. Since you have come, you can forget about running away", a voice came from a distance just before Zhan Qingyue could end her line.

Zhan Chen turned his gaze and soon found the owner of the voice. It was a young man with sharp looking feature. He was surrounded by a group of fawning lackeys. 

There were two old men who were following behind the young man. They were maintaining a certain distance from him but anyone with discerning eyes could tell that they were watching over the young man .

"Ye Lang?", Zhan Chen frowned while looking at the young man. He couldn't remember when he offended this young man.

"What is your business with me?", Zhan Chen asked in an indifferent voice.

"I heard that you were quite brave in the yesterday battle", the young man replied with a smile.

"This has nothing to do with you", Zhan Chen said with an impatient voice.

A cold glint appeared in the smiling face of Ye Lang but he had managed to cover it up in time. "Initially, this has nothing to do with me. But your showing off manages to give you an undeserved reputation. I bet if you are feeling happy now", Ye Lang added while maintaining that smiling expression on his face.

"What an idiot. Do you only know how to talk rubbish?", Zhan Chen replied with a mocking look on his face.

"You!....Brat, do you dare to accept a challenge from me? I will prove to everyone that you are nothing but a clown. Although you have managed to cultivate again but a cripple can never become a genius", Ye Lang asked in a provoking manner. He couldn't hide his hostility anymore after hearing the earlier comment of Zhan Chen.

"Young man, how dare you?", the eldest aunt of Zhan Chen shouted loudly. The Zhan family members threw murderous glares at Ye Lang.

"Young man, don't think we can not do anything just because your family is a branch of Ye clan. If they dare to do anything, then I promise, even the Ye clan has to pay the price", the second aunt of Zhan Chen said coldly. She was holding the hand of Li Qingzhao who was trying hard to contain her tear drops.

A cold look appeared on the face of Zhan Chen after he saw the reaction of his aunts and mother. Initially, he wouldn't have bother about such provocation. A jealous young man is nothing infront of his eyes. But after seeing the expression of his mother, Zhan Chen felt truly angered.

"Ye Lang, right? Let's see whether you can last a minute infront of me", Zhan Chen spoke as his figure flashed. He appeared Infront of Ye Lang in an instant. 

His hand moved like a claw and before Ye Lang could understand, Zhan Chen was holding the neck of Ye Leng.

Zhan Chen lifted up his hand and the body of Ye Lang stayed suspended in the air. "A mere trash, yet you dare run your mouth", Zhan Chen spoke coldly.

He tightened his grip and swung his hand towards the ground fiercely. The body of Ye Lang collided violently with the stone floor. Zhan Chen picked up Ye Lang again and the bloodied face of Ye Lang came to everyone's view. His eyes were blank as he had already passed out after the fierce collision with the stone floor.

"Young man, you have a death wish", the old guards of Ye Lang, cried out furiously. They were at a certain distance away from Ye Lang. So, they couldn't reach in time when Zhan Chen lifted up Ye Lang.

"Young man, you better let go of our young master. You should pray that nothing has happened to him. Otherwise, your puny Zhan family can't bear the consequences", a old man spoke with a furious tone.

"Ok, I will release him", Zhan Chen nodded his head at the old man. He loosened up his grip and the body of Ye Lang came out from his hand and collided with the stone floor again. 

Many people shivered after seeing the action of Zhan Chen. Some had gloating expression in their faces as they could imagine a calamity falling upon Zhan family.
