Chapter 984: Chapter 259: An Xuan’s Background
Silence fell.
As soon as An Jing spoke, no one responded. Even the onlookers didn’t dare to breathe heavily and quietly stopped recording—a Foundation Establishnt using a magic treasure to counterattack a Purple Mansion True Man, lying on the ground like a dead dog, unable to move, was indeed a rare sight. But if it were truly exposed, they feared they couldn’t bear the wrath of the Yuan Family.
However, in reality, the Yuan Family themselves, along with the ancestors behind them, were too stunned to speak at this mont, too caught up to be worried about losing face.
[Who… is it?!]
From afar, a grand will, the ancestral elder of the Yuan Family was imnsely shocked, resonating his Divine Sense in the Great Void: [Which fellow Daoist acted? Giving such little respect to my Yuan Family?!]
Although angry, there was more astonishnt.
The Yuan Family’s mastery of the Heavenly Sealing thod had actually enveloped the entire block from the beginning, allowing them to detect any foreign forces entering and manipulating.
The power An Xuan unleashed earlier, managing to shake off Yuan Junzai’s Divine Skill, was regarded as the inherent power of the magic treasure, which wasn’t surprising, so the observant Yuan Family ancestor didn’t take it seriously. And that An Xuan could indeed rely on the magic treasure to defeat Yuan Junzai, although sowhat surprising, was not a big deal for a well-inford Golden Core True Monarch who had lived long enough—throughout Tianyuan’s history, there were records of Purple Mansion genius True Persons piloting Void Battleships to defeat Golden Core Great Demons; if not for such talent within the Human Clan, how could they survive in the Tianyuan’s wasteland?
Yuan Junzai wasn’t particularly strong among his kin, so being defeated by a top-tier Immortal Spirit Root genius like An Xuan using the Feather Transformation Dao Combat Body wasn’t surprising.
What truly horrified Him was that force which dismantled Him, appearing out of nowhere without drawing any Heaven and Earth Power, like a ghost, with no trace at all!
Is it haunted? Can a Golden Core True Monarch be haunted? Though it sounds sowhat absurd, for the Yuan Family, who controls the Heavenly Authority Seal, the ability to exhibit such divine might that can contend against the power of a Golden Core True Monarch without drawing on any Heaven and Earth Power is no different from being haunted!
Naturally, no one responded to the Yuan Family ancestor’s inquiry.
In the silence, the Yuan Family ancestor’s heart sank.
——A significant loss!
Originally, the various plans targeting An Xuan were divided between a red lotus and a black face. A genius willing to join from a major Wilderness power, still with an Immortal Spirit Root, should by rights be warmly welcod with a golden stirrup.
Yet, in practical handling, consuming their own resources for others’ benefit was out of the question. It was acceptable for Third Middle Jingwei Academy since An Xuan was genuinely one of their people, and they could benefit him, but other gates wanted to clarify the truth behind An Xuan, which was naturally impossible with the sa approach.
Not to ntion those arrogant groups who thought there was no reason the conglorate should show goodwill to an unknown Wilderness power. It should be An Xuan seeking them, not the other way around! Moreover, as the backing forces behind An Xuan increasingly revealed their strength, a segnt of them beca cautious, even suspecting this might be another embryonic Righteous Army, and must be carefully monitored and absorbed.
A massive power with many factions could never have a unified voice, with every kind of statent from good to bad, from moderate to extre… Yet there was one common demand.
——To figure out the truth behind An Xuan.
And now.
The tip of the iceberg was revealed before the Yuan Family.
[It’s definitely a Golden Core True Monarch, and… stronger than ! Mastering extrely powerful ans!]
The Yuan Family ancestor, at this mont, was certain: [Though it’s unknown why nothing was discerned, this only indicates the other party is also a direct line of the Dao Courtyard, with impressive ans and transmission—no wonder An Xuan is so unconstrained, having Golden Core monarchal thought at his beck and call, unless the Cave Heaven sends soone, he can strut around Xuanye City!]
[I initially thought he was being arrogant, but now it appears An Jing is exceptionally modest, genteel, and courteous!]
anwhile, from the Sky Surveillance Bureau.
[Alas] Lie Que True Lord, watching this unfold, was a bit frustrated too: [I initially gave An Xuan so convenience, initially to create a good connection, but this group ssed around so much that we still had to use Sky Surveillance Bureau manpower.]
[Now it’s ruined, being humiliated, and yet tarnishing the Sky Surveillance Bureau’s reputation. I haven’t retired, and they don’t know to wait until after my retirent for this kind of action!]
Lightly shaking his head, Lie Que True Lord ceased paying attention to the matter and continued to retreat into seclusion, instructing his adjutant: [For this period, I will remain in seclusion; if questioned, it was the subordinates acting on their own, without my support or consent.]
anwhile, other factions observing this scene discussed among themselves.
[It’s quite interesting]
[Pretty impressive, truly a Dao Courtyard True Transmission, haven’t seen Old Man Yuan lose face in a while.]
[An Xuan is so strong, and the backing forces aren’t ordinary either, possibly an anomaly.]
[It doesn’t matter; it’s not our concern. Additionally, An Xuan being powerful, accompanied by Golden Core thought, is advantageous for Xuanye City. In the Four Cities Competition, it seems we won’t need to expose our trump cards to achieve good results.]
“Is there anyone else?”
At this mont, An Jing stood on the street. He stepped on Yuan Junzai’s headless body, looked around, yet found no follow-up and was imdiately surprised, “Really? Is it over already?”
[That True Monarch executed so decent ans.]
At this mont, Elder Xi Yi’s voice echoed in the Divine Sea, carrying a bit of astonishnt: [If not for us Martial Artists being adept at using the Inner Array Realm, He would indeed have captured the tail end of my strength… But after all, He is rely a True Monarch, unfamiliar with the Pure Yang Great Dao’s techniques. It turns out I’ve placed a ‘Mirror Reflection Technique’ on Him. When necessary, I can always discern who exactly is orchestrating from behind through His Divine Sense.]
“This isn’t a significant issue.” An Jing, despite his brutality, knew that Yuan Junzai and the others didn’t harbor much malice towards him. They were rely performing official duties by provoking him, which is why he responded fiercely—to remind these Tianyuan people that he should not be ssed with. For routine provocative business matters, he dared to slap faces and step on heads. If they dared escalate the conflict, then what he might do is beyond their foreseeing!
He turned, looking towards the center of Xuanye City: “We need to pay attention to the true rulers of this realm, the headquarters of the four major groups of the Cave Heaven—each of their powers, taken alone, represents a top-tier Upper Gate.”
“Now is not the ti to confront them directly. Giving these people a lesson suffices, the rest can be dealt with one step at a ti as it cos.”
“Ah, don’t you ntion.”
anwhile, Subdue Evil chid charmingly, “The Seal Technique used by the Yuan Family seems sowhat related to one of the Five Emperors’ True thods, [Fla Fusion Light Shining on the World’s True Spirit Seal]. As expected, the Tianyuan Realm has inherited the Five Emperor Technique, and within these four major groups, there definitely exist seventh-order Daoist Scriptures, and quite a few of them!”
“So what to do about this person?”
An Jing lowered his head, looking at Yuan Junzai lying flat on the ground, admitting defeat without a word (and without a head). Having thought for a mont, he bent over, lifted the body, and addressed the empty placent of a neck: “This ti you’ve disturbed my al, considering it your first offense, I’ll give you a lesson to save face. If you delay my business again, it won’t be as simple as this.”
“Now.”
An Jing’s eyes lit up: “Pay Good Deeds.”
Yuan Junzai’s body quivered slightly, not from fear, but from feeling endless absurdity and frustration—Good Deeds? Did he an to buy his life with them?
——Damn it, really being belittled!
Engulfed in boundless anger, he sent a ssage through the chip: [I only have a little over a million Good Deeds, is it enough?]
“You first transfer it.”
Ding, Good Deeds transaction complete.
An Jing flicked his wrist, tossing Yuan Junzai’s body aside, then turned back into the cracked private room, amidst everyone’s nebulous and shocking gaze, announcing, “This al wasn’t satisfying today, let’s move to another, Xuanye City is large enough, there must be a place with good food!”
——Really, can it be possible?
Mrs. Guang felt utterly disoriented; she hadn’t truly grasped what just happened, instinctively asked, “What if… there are more attacks later?”
“What to do?” An Jing repeated with so confusion, “Another million Good Deeds sent my way? That’d be good too.”
Glancing at the Good Deeds balance, he laughed heartily, “Don’t worry too much, should anything happen, we’ll deal with it then!”
The fact was indeed such.
Even though the Golden Dragon Building wobbled and the surrounding street was entirely upheaved, no one, no organization ca to trouble An Jing and the others.
Strange silence prevailed on the street, with neither the Yuan Family nor the Sky Surveillance Bureau having any reaction, as though nothing had occurred.
And that was the biggest event.
Undercurrents rushed through Xuanye City, with everyone watching An Jing, all at once an inquiry lingered in their minds.
——Exactly how profound is the backdrop behind An Xuan?
No one knew, thus finding it incredible.
