After the members of the Zhous were resurrected in the True Dragon Hall one by one.

The entire True Dragon Hall descended into utter chaos.

Most of these resurrected members of the Zhous were unaware that they had cultivated the Corpse Demon Art; even Zhou Tianlu and Zhou Hongjing were oblivious, only three resurrected Zhou Divine King Initial Stage experts knew about it.

These three resurrected Zhou Divine King Initial Stage experts immediately sent a voice transmission to all the present members of the Zhous, informing Zhou Tianlu, Zhou Hongjing, and others of the Corpse Demon Art situation.

Cheng Nianjiang, Cheng Tongliang, and other members of the Chengs were initially in despair, thinking their previous choices were gravely wrong. Now seeing the Zhou members mysteriously resurrected, even the headless bodies of Zhou Yongwang and Zhou Zhande moved, they could no longer consider much else and decided to completely side with the Zhous. They immediately approached Zhou Hongjing and others.

Since they had just been resurrected.

The corpse energy on Zhou Hongjing and others was not yet thick; it would only build up as they continued to devour bodies in the future. 𝓯𝓻𝒆𝙚𝒘𝓮𝙗𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝒍.𝙘𝓸𝙢

Cheng Nianjiang then said, "Young Zhou, it’s great that you are alright. That brat is utterly unruly, daring to run wild within the Zhous. He should have headed towards the Zhou family’s medicine garden."

But just when Cheng Nianjiang’s words fell.

The three resurrected Zhou Divine King Initial Stage experts surged with spiritual energy, and the three of them tore Cheng Nianjiang’s body apart with their bare hands.

Subsequently, they began to devour Cheng Nianjiang’s remains without a care.

After smelling the scent of blood, Zhou Hongjing and Zhou Tianlu also began to consume Cheng Nianjiang’s remains, and the rest of the resurrected Zhous present gulped audibly.

The headless bodies of Zhou Yongwang and Zhou Zhande stood still on the ground, still emanating the aura of a Half-step Divine Venerable from their headless frames.

Watching their father being devoured alive by the members of the Zhous, Cheng Tongliang, Cheng Tongming, and Cheng Tonghan froze instantly, trembling all over, unable to take a single step due to the shock.

Cheng Nianjiang’s body was soon completely consumed by the three Zhou Divine King Initial Stage experts, Zhou Tianlu, and Zhou Hongjing.

These three Zhou Divine King Initial Stage experts mercilessly turned their attention to Cheng Tongliang and others, who kept stammering, "No, don’t."

Unfortunately, the three Zhou Divine King Initial Stage experts paid no heed to Cheng Tongliang and others’ pleas, tearing their bodies apart without hesitation.

Watching this scene, Cheng Yuanmu, Cheng Yiyao, and the old Steward felt somewhat pained. Although they had given up hope on Cheng Nianjiang and others, the blood of the Cheng family still flowed within them, making them unable to act with such ruthless detachment as Cheng Nianjiang and the others.

Observing the members of the Zhous devour the bodies of Cheng Tongliang and others, everyone present was terrified.

Just at this moment.

Ye Chenfeng’s hurried figure returned to the True Dragon Hall.

Upon seeing the resurrected members of the Zhous in the True Dragon Hall and noticing that Cheng Yuanmu and Cheng Yiyao were fine, he felt slightly relieved.

He had rushed back here as fast as he could, his face a ghastly pale. In his current state, he might not have enough energy to deal with the resurrected three Zhou Divine King Initial Stage experts.

Moreover, those ancestral spirits in the coffins must have sensed the changes within the Zhou family and were likely approaching. Now, Ye Chenfeng only wanted to take Cheng Yuanmu, Cheng Yiyao, and the old Steward away. If necessary, he would hide them inside the Chaos Ring for a while.

But as Ye Chenfeng attempted to approach Cheng Yiyao, the three resurrected Zhou Divine King Initial Stage experts stopped devouring and blocked his path. They, too, could sense Ye Chenfeng’s unusual condition. Now with a ghastly pale face and his spiritual energy in a state of disarray, he was far from his previous combat prowess.

Zhou Tianlu and Zhou Hongjing stared venomously at Ye Chenfeng, who also saw the headless corpses of their ancestors. Zhou Hongjing shouted, "Kid, didn’t expect this, did you? You didn’t expect us to rise again, did you? I’ll devour your flesh piece by piece. With your current condition, dare to act arrogant once more!"

As Ye Chenfeng furrowed his brows.

A thick corpse energy permeated throughout the entire True Dragon Hall.

The next second.

Five nauseating silhouettes entered the True Dragon Hall. These five figures, dressed in damp long robes, had somewhat decayed faces, but their appearances were still vaguely recognizable.

"Ancestor Zhou Wufeng of the Zhous?"

"Ancestor Zhou Niantian of the Zhous?"

...

As these five silhouettes appeared in the True Dragon Hall, some cultivators instinctively blurted out their identities, their voices tinged with trembling.

Among these five silhouettes entering the True Dragon Hall.

Two had the aura of Half-step Divine Venerable—Zhou Wufeng and Zhou Niantian.

The other three were at the Mid Divine King Realm.

These five were the ancestral spirits from the five coffins, who could sense the changes among the other Zhous, realizing that many had been killed, prompting them to come out for a look.

With the appearance of these five ancestral spirits of the Zhous.

The three Zhou Divine King Initial Stage experts immediately paid their respects obediently.

In a cold voice, Zhou Wufeng asked, "Where are Zhou Zhande and Zhou Yongwang?"

The three Zhou Divine King Initial Stage experts briefly explained the situation, pointing to the headless bodies of Zhou Zhande and Zhou Yongwang.

Though the Corpse Demon Art can bring someone back to life, it requires an intact skull and heart; without their heads, Zhou Yongwang and Zhou Zhande, even if resurrected, could only become mindless, headless puppets.

Surrounded by the five ancestral spirits of the Zhous and three Zhou Divine King Initial Stage experts, Ye Chenfeng found it impossible to approach Cheng Yuanmu and Cheng Yiyao. He couldn’t abandon Cheng Yiyao and others, but in his current state, the situation was perilous.

Zhou Wufeng and Zhou Niantian fixed their gazes on Ye Chenfeng, then scanned everyone in the True Dragon Hall before Zhou Niantian spoke, "Everyone in the True Dragon Hall must die. Today, let’s hold a feast of blood and flesh with the Zhou family!"

Corpse energy surged from Zhou Niantian, as a green liquid seeped continuously from his somewhat decayed face, making him look extremely grotesque.
