The Holy Maiden Uncovers My Coffin When I Just Become An Emperor's Corpse-Chapter 266 Smile!

Yang Yan swept his gaze over the sect leaders who were apologizing before him, noting their sincerity and earnestness.

As they met his gaze, a few of the sect leaders forced a smile, trying to appear humble.

"You think I can’t kill you? You’re overestimating yourselves," he said coldly.

If the ones before him were merely geniuses or successors,

Yang Yan wouldn’t care about their thoughts and would simply suppress them, turning them into servants.

Because those people had low cultivation, they could not threaten him.

But these people were sect leaders, harboring malicious intentions!

*How could he trust them so easily, or let them get close to him?*

*Better to just kill them all!*

Moreover, after killing them, all their treasures would become his, wouldn’t that be better?

"Once I unleash my methods, none of you will escape!" Yang Yan continued.

He still had the Great Emperor’s Majesty and the Dao Essence of the Sword Dao Emperor buried with the Small Burial Immortal Technique within him.

If he lifted the seal and released them, they would not be able to withstand it.

The power of the Emperor Body had not yet been unleashed either.

The reason it hadn’t been was because the double heavenly tribulations were enough to keep those before him on their toes.

*He didn’t need to reveal his trump cards just yet!*

The Tianji Sect Master, Heavenly Sword Sect Master Cangjian, and others exchanged looks.

They understood that if they didn’t explain their reasons clearly,

Yang Yan wouldn’t trust them!

Things today would not end well!

Wherever they went, Yang Yan would follow.

Even if they split up, he would catch up.

He would defeat them one by one!

Judging by Tianling Sect Master’s current appearance, at least half of them would die.

If Yang Yan used other methods, none of them would escape.

The Heavenly Sword Sect Master Cangjian appeared troubled.

"Let me explain!"

His gaze was deep.

"Yang Yan, we’re actually apologizing to you.

First, because your talent, root bone, and strength far exceeded our expectations.

With our current power, we couldn’t possibly kill you.

Second, your ability that, with a slight breakthrough, will bring down heavenly tribulations.

It poses too great a threat to our respective sects.

If you were to break through and bring the tribulation to our sects’ locations,

the consequences... we dare not imagine!"

In Yang Yan’s tribulation, with their cultivation, they could barely protect themselves.

If Yang Yan crossed the tribulation within their sects, who could resist?

Who could protect the many disciples from the tribulation?

After a single tribulation, likely half of the disciples of each major sect would perish.

If Yang Yan came a few more times, their sects would be completely destroyed.

The legacy of ten thousand years lost in a single day!

They couldn’t bear such a sin.

If they were to invite someone from above the heavens to intervene and break the tribulation, that was even less possible.

The heavenly tribulation was a personal catastrophe, if others intervened, a terrifying scenario would unfold!

The strong would be implicated, unable to escape!

Let alone Yang Yan besides the tribulation!

Couldn’t Yang Yan, who couldn’t be killed, strike?

*A master capable of ambushing sect disciples at any moment, what could they use to resist?*

*All these reasons led them to apologize to Yang Yan, acknowledging their defeat.*

"Oh, you’re afraid of this!

Truthfully, you need not fear or worry, I am not such a person!

However, since you mentioned it, after you’re dead,

I will make a few more visits to fulfill your wishes!" Yang Yan said indifferently.

*He had considered this long ago!*

*But this had nothing to do with his intention to kill the sect leaders before him!*

The Heavenly Sword Sect Master Cangjian, Baihe Sect Master, and Tianji Sect Master, upon hearing this, felt an urge to curse.

*Is this something a person would say?*

Besides, when did they say they wanted Yang Yan to come!

Clearly, they did not want Yang Yan to come!

"Yang Yan, let’s be straightforward!

What exactly do you want from us?

So that you won’t kill us or bring the tribulation to our sects.

Or is it that today, we must die for you not to bring the tribulation to our sects?" Master Jue Shen of the Emei Golden Peak Hengyun Mountain Buddhist Sect asked coldly.

Yang Yan looked at Master Jue Shen.

"Master, speak respectfully, you are asking me!

Rather than me asking you!

Here’s the deal, my first demand is that from now on, all of you must speak to me with a smile.

Especially you, master!

Now, give me a smile!"

Master Jue Shen’s eyes widened.

Since she became a nun, she hadn’t smiled.

He was asking her to speak with a smile?

How could she possibly smile now?

The other sect leaders’ faces twitched at Yang Yan’s demand.

*It surprised them!*

*They never expected it!*

Then they glanced at Master Jue Shen...

"Indeed, we’ve never seen her smile!" they mused.

Master Jue Shen and they were once of the same generation, and she was very beautiful in her youth.

Even now, she still appeared in her thirties or forties.

*Her charm remained!*

*But she always wore a stern and serious expression, never smiling, which made her appear somewhat old.*

"Ha, if you can’t even meet this small demand, I see you have no intention of making peace with me. freeweɓnøvel.com

On the contrary, you have malicious intentions and seek to harm me!" Yang Yan said, raising an eyebrow.

His distrust, combined with the arrival of the second heavenly tribulation, was draining the Profound Qi of the Tianling Sect Master holding the white flag.

"If you don’t wish to make peace, quickly use a treasure to replace me and escape, I can’t hold on!"

The Tianling Sect Master said, blood oozing from his lips.

"Master, you see even the Tianling Sect Master can’t hold on.

It’s just a smile, why don’t you just comply?" Heavenly Sword Sect Master Cangjian quickly urged.

"Yes, Master, it’s just a smile, it’s nothing," Baihe Sect Master chimed in.

"Master, it’s just a smile, don’t make it difficult for us," Tianji Sect Master added.

Master Jue Shen of the Emei Golden Peak Hengyun Mountain Buddhist Sect gritted her teeth, but her lips began to slowly curve upwards.

"There, is this enough?" she said in a muffled voice.

*That smile...*

*That look of grievance!*

*Was it like the kind and ruthless master of the Emei Golden Peak Hengyun Mountain Buddhist Sect, Master Jue Shen should have?*

"Smile a bit brighter!" Yang Yan said.

Master Jue Shen clenched her fists, feeling aggrieved and humiliated.

"How about this!"

Her lips curled up more, and she no longer gritted her teeth.

The smile was somewhat bright!

"Although it’s still a bit stiff, it’s acceptable, maintain it!" Yang Yan was satisfied.

Master Jue Shen spoke no more, simply maintaining her stiff smile.

"Yang Yan, can you now tell us your demands?" Tianji Sect Master forced a smile and asked immediately.

Yang Yan thought for a moment.

"If I kill you, I gain all the treasures you have on you.

And the Profound Qi power within you!

If I destroy your sects, I gain your sect’s treasures.

And the power of disciples and elders within the sect.

So, if you hand over all your treasures, then allow me to absorb half of your Profound Qi,

the remaining half of the Profound Qi will be your power to escape the range of this tribulation.

Only absorbing half the Profound Qi, consider it your debt to me!

Also, your sect’s treasures and the power within your sect disciples...

After crossing the tribulation, I’ll come to your sects to collect them one by one."

As he spoke, their expressions grew increasingly grim.

The demands were too high!

"If you agree, swear a Heavenly Dao Oath."

Yang Yan’s demands were harsh!

The demands were too much!

This was also a test Yang Yan gave them, if they agreed, it proved they had malicious intentions.

If they could agree to such harsh terms, he wouldn’t believe they were innocuous!

If they disagreed, it showed they genuinely wanted to make peace.

"Yang Yan, we can let you take all the treasures we have on us.

But letting you take all the treasures of the sect is equivalent to us losing our foundation.

You should know, without those, our sects wouldn’t survive for long," Heavenly Sword Sect Master Cangjian said.

"Yes, Yang Yan, we cannot agree to your terms."

Yang Yan contemplated.

*It seemed they genuinely wanted to make peace!*

*This would be easier then!*

*These people before him were all treasures indeed!*
