135: Chapter 034: Just Like to Subdue the Disobedient
As a True Spirit Level genius, Chen Tianjian’s influence was indeed considerable.
Yet when he spoke as such, Zhou Yan did not think it stemd from goodwill, for this was by no ans a simple character.
Such geniuses, if they were so easily trusted based on a few words, then in such an environnt, one would likely not even know how they t their demise.
Zhou Yan was well aware of all this, so even though Chen Tianjian had ostensibly dissolved the murder plot against him, his wariness of Chen deepened.
But his gaze remained calm as he looked at the crowd, seemingly unconcerned by any of it.
“Since Chen Lingzhe has said so, then let’s drop this matter here.
Zhou Lingzhe, is it?
Hehe, we admire your little skill.
Thus, we hope your realm’s advancent speed won’t disappoint us this ti.
Otherwise, hehe.”
A cultivator at the True Man Level stepped forward, laughing coldly with a sinister tone.
He was a youth with a sowhat sallow and emaciated face, his eyes deeply sunken into his cheekbones, giving him a sowhat fierce and ugly appearance.
But the mont he stepped forward, cultivators involuntarily stepped aside, a testant to his formidable thods.
Zhou Yan glanced at the young man, who t his gaze unflinchingly.
In his cold eyes, there seed to hide an endless thirst for blood.
In such a world, anyone who was ugly was sure to be feared because those who could forsake their appearance must possess indomitable wills.
Such figures were often leaders in their own right, and this youth was no exception.
“So what if you’re disappointed?
And what if you’re not?”
Zhou Yan locked eyes with the man, the ancient Sword Intent swirling within his gaze, his words startling.
The crowd had thought Zhou Yan, being targeted, would seek peace in the face of this man with terrifying vigor.
Yet, he was now openly provoking him.
“Hmm?
Very good.
You’re not the first to speak to , Xi Yu Yang, in such a manner, but you are the only one still alive!”
The youth took another step, his body bristling with murderous intent.
By doing this, he not only openly disregarded the authority of Chen Tianjian and Feng Yunyan but also challenged their dignity.
But it seed he cared not, for it was not until he revealed his na that other cultivators were suddenly shocked, followed by hushed conversations erging.
“So it’s him!
No wonder he was so formidable in combat; he’s one of the ancient geniuses of the Xi Family.
I didn’t expect him to be here.”
“No wonder those of the Xi Family were so arrogant; they actually had such backing…”
“Xi Yu Yang…
that na sounds so familiar.
It seems…
a long ti ago, my father ntioned him, he was very well-known!”
“This ti, let’s see how Zhou Yan can be so arrogant, knowledgeable of ancient arrays, yet thinking too highly of himself!”
“Hehe, truly thinks he’s sothing.
Even with the abilities of Chen Lingzhe and Seated Spirit, they’re not so arrogant.
What does that make him?”
…
Various discussions filled the air, all crystal clear to Zhou Yan with his formidable sensing ability.
The more the crowd acted like this, the more he scoffed inwardly.
Zhou Yan already had plans for his cultivation journey, and he well understood the motives of these people, so he had plans for them as well.
He disdained to resort to tactics, but in the current situation, if he could use a strategy of using others to eliminate a threat, it would undoubtedly be the best.
Staring at Xi Yu Yang, his gaze was equally icy, he sneered, “Many have spoken to
like that too, but they are all dead!”
“Ha ha ha, ignorant arrogance.
Among us, there are several powerhouses beyond your imagination.
Aren’t you afraid of talking big and biting your tongue?”
Xi Yu Yang laughed heartily, looking at Zhou Yan with utter contempt.
It seed that everything Zhou Yan had done before was nothing more than a clown’s antics in his eyes; he had never taken it seriously.
And his smile was sowhat grim, like that of a beast.
“Is that so?
I know that too.
Among these geniuses, there are three who are exceptionally well-hidden, just more aware than you!
You’re stepping forward now rely because you’ve seen the ancient array no longer has attack power and wish to suppress
while establishing your reputation!”
Zhou Yan was not intimidated in the slightest; he had already taken his stand.
He had now touched the barriers of the Sword Spirit Realm, and with the power of the Purple Fla combined with the Soul Extinguishing Sword Intent, Zhou Yan feared none of them.
Even if these geniuses were of higher realms, nearly at the True Spirit Level, Zhou Yan felt no pressure whatsoever.
He never jumped into situations he wasn’t confident about!
His bold action ant he was certain of his hand.
“If that’s the case, then let
send you on your way!
Bla only your lack of insight!”
Xi Yu Yang sneered continuously, taking another step forward as a Sword Intent, similarly ancient and tiless, surged from his gaze.
It was a wordless ancient Sword Intent, on par with that within the ancient array, not giving an inch!
As this Sword Intent manifested, countless cultivators were shocked and afraid, eyeing Xi Yu Yang with fear.
Even Chen Tianjian and Feng Yunyan frowned slightly and took a half-step back at that mont.
Their retreat was not out of fear, but obviously, they did not wish to beco entangled in this affair, and they, too, were keen to gauge Zhou Yan’s true capabilities.
This pragmatic approach was sothing Feng Ling Bamboo at Zhou Yan’s side found hard to accept.
Previously, Zhou Yan had provided many insights for the ancient array, which was the very reason everyone could safely arrive here.
Now, to suddenly let Zhou Yan be targeted and do nothing about it seed far too heartless!
Feng Ling Bamboo couldn’t accept such a stark reality, but Zhou Yan was completely indifferent to this scene.
He simply looked at the two terrifying Sword Intents that ca killing through the air and remained unmoved.
Two streams of Sword Intent, with terrifying energy and ancient majesty, seed ready to break the shackles of this Heaven and Earth.
Suddenly, they appeared right before Zhou Yan’s glabella, aiming to grind his physical body and Soul together to death.
Such a move was extrely vicious.
“Dare to touch my young master, go to hell!”
Feng Ling Bamboo made her move at this mont.
Similarly, a Sword Soul, carrying a bone-chilling Ice Sword Intent, suddenly struck, almost freezing the entire Heaven and Earth!
As her anger rose, her hair, like a waterfall, suddenly flew about wildly, and her snow-white Spirit Armor fluttered in.
Imnse cold and sharp killing intent erupted at this mont, as if an Immortal Fairy had descended to the mortal plane!
She was already several tis more exceptional than Feng Lingqing, and at this mont, her presence shone with a reverence-inspiring aura!
In this instant, even the ethereal Feng Yunyan was directly outshone!
“Buzz—”
The Ice Sword Intent collided with the ancient Sword Intent, causing Feng Ling Bamboo’s delicate body to tremble.
She was forced to step back five or six paces in an instant, and then a mouthful of fresh blood sprayed out.
Her body continued to tremble, and her Spirit Armor showed fine cracks stained with blood.
However, Xi Yu Yang’s two streams of ancient Sword Intent also suddenly crumbled and dissipated at this mont, turning into dust and vanishing into the Heaven and Earth.
“Eh?
The little girl does have so talent.
Why don’t you submit to , and I’ll give you a great opportunity to step into the realm of Dual Sword Souls, how about that?”
Xi Yu Yang was slightly startled and then looked towards Feng Ling Bamboo with wicked eyes that suddenly revealed a hint of admiration.
His words also caused many genius Cultivators present to stir with excitent.
The opportunity of Dual Sword Souls, how heaven-defying is that?!
This could be seen by looking at the first individual, Ji TaiXu, with his Dual Sword Souls!
But Feng Ling Bamboo ignored him, instead suppressing the restless blood energy within her and coming to Zhou Yan’s side, asking with concern, “Young master, are you alright?”
Feng Ling Bamboo’s query was sincere, because she didn’t know whether the ancient Sword Intent close to Zhou Yan had been fully intercepted by her without impacting Zhou Yan.
And she couldn’t sense Zhou Yan’s condition at all, which was why she asked with concern.
Zhou Yan looked deeply at Feng Ling Bamboo, seeing her sincere gaze, and felt a subtle stirring in his heart.
At this mont, Feng Ling Bamboo was no different from Feng Lingqing.
That detestable woman, without realizing it, had managed to beco so protective of him…
Zhou Yan couldn’t help but feel so lancholy.
“Why bother saving ?
Haven’t you always looked down on , your young master?
If I were to be killed here, you and my mother wouldn’t have to worry about
anymore, would you?”
Zhou Yan said this frankly because he knew that before, Feng Ling Bamboo wished he were dead and had no affection for him at all.
This sudden change made Zhou Yan feel as if it was all too dreamlike.
For soone who despised him, although the familiarity grew and the feeling of loathing lessened, soone now risking their life to protect him would seem surreal to most people.
With partial mories from Earth, Zhou Yan felt more like an Earth person, and so his feelings were even more complex at this mont.
“Young master, previously Feng Ling Bamboo was naive and didn’t recognize your worth.
Now that I do, even if it ans death, I will protect you well.
It’s true I admired Master Taixu, but my heart to protect you is also true.”
Feng Ling Bamboo bowed her head, quietly sharing her feelings.
At this step, even admitting her admiration for Master Taixu didn’t matter anymore, because she believed she was about to die.
Since she was facing death, there was nothing left to hold onto.
“You admire him so much, but do you truly understand him?
You could be like your sister and like , your young master.
I’m certain I will be stronger than him.”
Zhou Yan said softly, with a slight smile.
His words were light and simple, yet they made him seem arrogant and, subtly, very frightening.
Because at such a mont, he could utter such words.
Was it due to sheer confidence, or did he truly possess terrifying strength?
“Young master…
I was only impressed by Master Taixu’s talent and energy.
I liked him in my heart, but specifically, I’m not even sure myself.
Do you think I still have a chance and ability to like you, young master?
Looking back at what has happened before, I’m filled with regret, wishing I had acted differently…”
Feng Ling Bamboo stood beside Zhou Yan obediently, like a child.
She understood n well, seemingly had seen through many of them, and even believed that certain thods could subdue so n.
But now, all of that was gone.
Having endured Xi Yu Yang’s ancient Sword Intent, she felt as if her soul was about to scatter.
So, when the feeling of death approached, everything returned to its true nature.
“I rather like subduing disobedient people, whether they are my own or my enemies,” said Zhou Yan as he smiled, looking up again at Xi Yu Yang.
