The Sword God of the Universe-Chapter 871: The Chu Family of Feiyu City
Chapter 871: Chapter 871: The Chu Family of Feiyu City
Mr. Zhong had a long-standing grudge with the Fang Family, and seeing their people always irritated him. Moreover, he always saw great potential in Jing Yan, so he asked Jing Yan’s opinion with sincere intent, ready to help as soon as Jing Yan asked. Of course, if Jing Yan really did ask, it would also mean owing a significant favor.
Mr. Zhong was not afraid of retaliation from the Fang Family. The buffer zone of the Despair Abyss was his territory. Besides, if the Fang Family really dared to attack his Abyss Market with everything they’ve got, he could call Guardian Chen Long for assistance.
Upon hearing Mr. Zhong’s words, Fang Qiluo and the Old Sect Master of Clear Spring Sect both showed expressions of anger and unwillingness.
"Thank you, Mr. Zhong!" Jing Yan clasped his hands and smiled at Mr. Zhong.
Suddenly, his tone shifted, "However, there’s no need for Mr. Zhong to intervene for these two insignificant pests!"
As Jing Yan spoke, he looked at Fang Luoqi and the Old Sect Master of Clear Spring Sect.
Two decades ago, before entering the Death Abyss for the second time, Jing Yan indeed wouldn’t have been confident in dealing with these two Saint Realm Third Stage experts teaming up to kill him. After all, back then, he didn’t even have a handy Holy Artifact for attacks.
But now, killing these two was merely a matter of moments.
Mr. Zhong frowned as he looked at Jing Yan.
He couldn’t quite grasp Jing Yan’s meaning. Could it be... Jing Yan was confident enough to handle two Saint Realm Third Stage experts? Moreover, both the Old Sect Master of Clear Spring Sect and Fang Luoqi were senior Saint Realm Third Stage experts, far superior to those who had just reached Saint Realm Third Stage, with strong personal power and numerous techniques.
Could Jing Yan really stop them?
"Since Fellow Daoist Jing Yan doesn’t need my help, I guess I was overthinking!" Mr. Zhong’s smile turned awkward.
He felt like he had offered warmth only to be met with cold indifference, wanting to help but not being appreciated. Anyone would feel uncomfortable in such a situation.
"Kill!"
"Jing Yan, prepare to die!" Fang Qiluo and the Clear Spring Sect’s Old Sect Master both roared and fiercely attacked Jing Yan.
Their figures, propelled by the Power of Laws, charged madly towards Jing Yan.
However, in the void, their bodies seemed to crash into an invisible wall.
At high speed, they collided ferociously, coming to a sudden stop, and both shuddered, their blood and Primordial Energy stagnating.
Terror grew in their hearts simultaneously.
"What’s happening?" They showed panic-stricken expressions.
"Die!" Jing Yan raised his hand, pressing a Palm Seal outwards.
The Power of Laws circulated, brilliance shining like stars.
The terrifying power engulfed both Fang Qiluo and the Old Sect Master of Clear Spring Sect. As this power spread, the two instinctively activated their Defense Holy Artifacts to resist.
Dense patterns emerged on their bodies’ surfaces.
But these power-emitting patterns disintegrated and collapsed instantly. Then, both their life forces vanished, and their bodies fell from the sky.
From Jing Yan’s strike to their fall, it all happened in the blink of an eye, incredibly fast like lightning.
Mr. Zhong, standing not far away, didn’t even understand what had happened.
Jing Yan casually gathered the resources from their corpses.
"Mr. Zhong, I have other matters to attend to, so I’ll take my leave. I shall visit your workshop another time!" Jing Yan clasped his hands again towards Mr. Zhong.
Jing Yan remained courteous to Mr. Zhong, not showing any arrogance despite his newfound strength to instantly slay Mr. Zhong.
"Oh...alright!" Mr. Zhong was suddenly jolted back to reality upon hearing Jing Yan’s words.
By this time, Jing Yan had already vanished into the distant sky.
Watching Jing Yan’s disappearing figure, Mr. Zhong’s body trembled slightly. He hurriedly descended to where Fang Qiluo and the Old Sect Master had fallen.
"Dead? Really dead?" Mr. Zhong’s face turned pale.
"Jing Yan killed them both with one move? How is that possible?"
"What exactly is Jing Yan’s cultivation? Or did he use some special method? Yet, I witnessed the entire process. Jing Yan simply struck with a palm and didn’t use any special artifacts!"
"Two Saint Realm Third Stage experts were just killed like that?" Mr. Zhong stood dazed, complex emotions flashing in his eyes. He remained motionless for a long while before finally leaving.
...
"Bai Xue, you should first return to the Heavenly Origin Continent!"
At the junction between the Despair Abyss and the Heavenly Origin Continent, Jing Yan spoke to Bai Xue.
Though Bai Xue was already at the peak of the Dao Emperor Realm, she had yet to step into the Saint Realm. In the presence of Saint Realm experts, Bai Xue had no ability to resist. Jing Yan felt uneasy leading Bai Xue deep into the Despair Abyss.
"Once you reach the Saint Realm, send me a message, and I’ll come to pick you up!" Jing Yan added.
If Bai Xue advanced to the Saint Realm, she wouldn’t be able to stay on the Heavenly Origin Continent. When that happened, Jing Yan would come to pick her up again.
"I understand."
"Jing Yan, I’m leaving then." Bai Xue looked at Jing Yan and spoke coldly before turning to enter the Heavenly Origin Continent.
She didn’t want to be a burden to Jing Yan!
On the Heavenly Origin Continent, Bai Xue’s cultivation was already at the top.
Jing Yan had also given Bai Xue enough Divine Crystals, more than sufficient for her to advance to the Saint Realm. With these Divine Crystals and two Heavenly Repairing Pills, Jing Yan believed that Bai Xue could step into the Saint Realm within a few decades.
"Everyone has left; what are you still looking at?" Old Seven muttered from the side.
Bai Xue had been gone for quite some time, yet Jing Yan still stood in place.
Jing Yan looked at Old Seven and then smiled, showing his white teeth.
"Alright! Let’s go too! This time, we head directly to the Quicksand Divine Domain!" Jing Yan gazed into the distant sky.
It was time to search for his mother.
Jing Yan suspected that his mother’s family should be the Second Grade Force, the Chu Family of the Quicksand Divine Domain.
If that were true, Jing Yan would undoubtedly bring his mother out to reunite with his father. Now, even the Chu Family couldn’t stop Jing Yan from doing what he intended.
"Whoosh!"
In the void, a cyan figure shot through like lightning!
Flying directly through the Tianxia Divine Domain, Jing Yan entered the Quicksand Divine Domain.
"I really must thank Mr. Zhong for the map; otherwise, I would have to spend time locating the Chu Family!" Jing Yan thought to himself.
On this day, a young martial artist in a cyan robe arrived at Feiyu City, controlled by the Chu Family, a Second Grade Force of the Quicksand Divine Domain.
Suspended in mid-air above the Chu family’s mansion, Jing Yan released his Divine Thought to envelop the area.
"What a huge mansion!"
"There are indeed many martial artists. Within this mansion alone, there are at least a million martial artists active."
"The formations are quite good too, with thirty-six Big Arrays forming three sets of Chain Arrays. One set is always active, making it impossible even for Saint Realm Third Stage martial artists to force their way in." Under Jing Yan’s Divine Thought, everything within the Chu family’s mansion was exposed without any concealment.
