Chapter 2507: Second Lord Yan
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Fei Zhong’s puppet was created using his true form’s blood, Spirits, and soul power, as well as the bones of a Paramount Realm dwarf. It took countless resources to create it.
This puppet was Fei Zhong’s greatest reliance before he broke through to Paramount Realm.
At this moment, the puppet followed his aura and walked closely behind him.
!!
Fei Zhong’s true form saw two black dots in the vast universe from a great distance away. As they flew closer, he could see that the two black dots were Yan Huangtu and Yan Zhexian.
The two of them stayed where they were and did not escape.
Fei Zhong’s two thick eyebrows contracted slightly as he asked, “Didn’t you say that the two of them had already escaped?”
The puppet was shocked and a little lost, “I’m not sure! The two of them had indeed escaped after the Rakshasa Supreme Saint appeared! It might be a trap seeing that they’re here now, while the Rakshasa Supreme Saint is nowhere to be found. Master, you’d better be careful.”
“What cultivation level of that Rakshasa Supreme Saint?” Fei Zhong became wary.
The puppet said, “At that time, he only used his physical strength. His cultivation level was never exposed.”
“There must be something fishy going on. We have to be careful. Stay where you are. If anything happens, help me immediately,” Fei Zhong instructed.
The puppet said, “Master’s cultivation level is capable of dealing with any variables. Even if they are scheming, it’s useless in the face of absolute power.”
Fei Zhong flew towards Yan Huangtu and Yan Zhexian and activated his Precept Domain.
When he was still ten thousand miles away from the two Yans, the Precept Domain had already spread to their surroundings. Dense black iron appeared in the void. Some turned into iron flowers, some formed rows of iron thorns, and some turned into a forest of iron trees.
Compared to the puppet’s Precept Domain, Fei Zhong’s Precept Domain was extremely mysterious. It displayed all sorts of forms in the world, like a metal world that underwent endless changes.
Yan Huangtu sat cross-legged, leisurely recuperating from his injuries.
Yan Zhexian wore a pure white robe. She stood casually mid-air, and flowers bloomed beneath her feet. She was like a peerless heavenly maiden, indifferently looking at the steel jungle that submerged.
Seeing their peaceful state, even Fei Zhong, who had a profound cultivation base, felt a little weak in his heart.
Thus, he stopped several dozen miles away from them.
“My Spiritual power and Precept Domain didn’t sense any other elites nearby, so there shouldn’t be an ambush. But, why are the two of them so calm?” Fei Zhong thought.
Yan Zhexian’s lips curled into a smile as he said, “Uncle, I was right. Fei Zhong came to seek his death.”
Yan Huangtu opened his eyes and shook his head with a smile.
Fei Zhong held his battle ax in his hand, he said in a clear voice, “You two don’t have to be so mystifying. Old man Dazheng has been severely injured, he’s not coming to save you! If the two of you are sensible, you’ll surrender. Once I make a move, who knows if I’ll break Fifth Master Yan or hurt the fetus in Miss Zhexian’s stomach?”
Yan Huangtu and Yan Zhexian’s hearts were in a funk.
Their greatest hope was that Master Dazheng would come to rescue them.
Since Fei Zhong’s true body had appeared here, it meant that Master Dazheng might have met with an accident.
Yan Zhexian’s expression could no longer hold it in.
Yan Huangtu stood up and used his tall and st.u.r.dy body to block Yan Zhexian so that Fei Zhong could not see the change in Yan Zhexian’s expression.
He spread out his hands and said, “The legendary Fei Zhong. Your name could be heard throughout the entire Celestial Court. With your cultivation level, why are you wasting your time on us? Come and capture us!”
Fei Zhong was an experienced person. He circulated his Saint Qi to his eyes and observed his surroundings.
He still did not find anything.
Fei Zhong smiled and said, “You know that you can not escape, so you set up a maze to scare me?”
Yan Huangtu said, “Senior is a first-cla.s.s existence below divinity. Even your puppet is comparable to a Paramount Realm Supreme Saint. I am just a Thousand-Koan Realm Supreme Saint. I’m a child in front of you, how would I dare to scheme you?”
“It’s useless even if you set up a maze or an ambush.”
Fei Zhong raised his left hand across the void. Instantly, the wind and clouds in the Precept Domain changed. Countless Precepts turned into a torrent and surged towards Yan Huangtu and Yan Zhexian.
The torrent of Precepts was like a river in the heavens and earth, and also billions of light swords.
Even before it landed on their body, it had already caused their Saint Souls to palpitate. A mystical scene appeared before their eyes, as if the G.o.ds had appeared, making them kneel on the ground in fear.
The difference in cultivation was too great. Just a thought from Fei Zhong could cause them to sink into the Saint Aura and lose the ability to resist.
“Fei Zhong’s cultivation base is so terrifying.”
Yan Huangtu activated Nine Dragons Divine Mark. A streak of divine light rushed out of his body. However, under the attack of the torrent of Precepts, the Divine Marks were instantly destroyed and disappeared from his bones.
It was directly erased by Fei Zhong.
Yan Huangtu no longer resisted. He placed all his hope on Zhang Ruochen.
BOOM
A ball of dark energy exploded out of thin air. s.p.a.ce and time were thrown into chaos.
The dense dark energy turned into a cloud and blocked the torrents of Precepts.
“Such dense dark energy. Who Is It?”
Fei Zhong’s expression changed slightly as his eyes narrowed.
In the dark cloud, s.p.a.ce and time became chaotic as a remarkable figure appeared. It was a young man with a handsome face and n.o.ble temperament. His eyes seemed to contain billions of stars and were unfathomable.
Seeing this young man, Fei Zhong was scared out of his wits. His eyes were wide open and he flew backward rapidly, pulling away the distances between them.
Whoosh
Precepts surged out of Fei Zhong’s body and he entered his peak fighting state.
The Precept Domain became more unpredictable and the Saint Aura was stronger. Yan Huangtu and Yan Zhexian were under tremendous pressure. Their bodies felt as if they were being p.r.i.c.ked by needles and their shoulders felt as if they were bearing a hundred thousand mountains. However, they still had to appear calm and relaxed.
“Fei Zhong, you dare to lay your hands on me?” The young man coldly berated.
Fei Zhong motivated his battle ax to the limit. His eyes were like lightning, but his palms were covered in cold sweat, “Not at all! Second Lord Yan is known as the G.o.d of DemiG.o.ds and the number one person below divinity of Yanluo Clan. I still have some self-awareness. I won’t do such a suicidal thing.”
Lord Yan was referring to Yan Yu, the second brother of Yan Huangtu.
Fei Zhong called Yan Huangtu, Fifth Master Yan but Second Lord Yan to Yan Yu. His respect for him was self-evident.
Fei Zhong was secretly glad that he had been careful and didn’t approach him. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have had a chance to escape today.
Yan Yu was naturally Zhang Ruochen’s transformation.
The pure dark energy under Zhang Ruochen’s feet was condensed from the last two drops of Dark s.p.a.ce-time Matter.
Yan Yu focuses mainly on Path of Darkness.
Zhang Ruochen seemed to be at ease, but in fact, his situation was similar to Yan Huangtu and Yan Zhexian. His demiG.o.d body was squeezed tightly by Fei Zhong’s Precept Domain. It was difficult for him to breathe.
However, he couldn’t show any flaws.
Zhang Ruochen snorted. “You hurt my brother and wanted to capture my niece. If I don’t kill you today, where will the Yan family’s dignity be?”
Fei Zhong felt even more pressure. His hair was soaked with sweat. “With Lord Yan’s cultivation, I know I’m no match for you. But Lord Yan might not be able to stop me if I try to escape, right?”
Fei Zhong naturally wouldn’t doubt Yan Yu’s ident.i.ty.
First, he had used his spiritual power and Precept Domain to investigate earlier. He hadn’t sensed anyone hiding. Who else could but Yan Yu, who had the highest cultivation could hide from him?
Second, Yan Huangtu and Yan Zhexian had already escaped. Why did they suddenly come back here?
It was obvious that Yan Yu had used them as bait to lure him here.
Third, Zhang Ruochen’s Shapes.h.i.+fting technique had reached its peak. Almost no one under divinity could see through it.
Zhang Ruochen smiled mockingly and said indifferently, “Oh you can try to escape. Yet I bet on my surname that you can’t escape from me.”
Yan Zhexian glanced at Zhang Ruochen and was speechless. He felt that Zhang Ruochen was too good at bragging and taking his place. If Fei Zhong turned around and ran, wouldn’t he be exposed?
Did he think that he was the demiG.o.d’s G.o.d?
Fei Zhong knew how powerful Yan Yu was. If he really turned around to run, his Precept Domain and aura would collapse and he wouldn’t be able to fight anymore.
At that time, he might lose his life here.
Fei Zhong thought about it and became more aggressive. “Yan Yu, you’ve made a serious mistake. You shouldn’t have used the two of them to lure me here.”
“Oh! Really?”
“With our current distance, you can’t stop me from self-detonating my Sainthood Source.”
“I can’t, but I can escape,” Zhang Ruochen said.
Fei Zhong said, “You can save your life, but Yan Huangtu and Yan Zhexian will definitely die with me. Well, I think you’ve made a crucial mistake.”
Zhang Ruochen’s face turned cold.
Fei Zhong thought he had caught Yan Yu’s weakness, “Lord Yan, I came to Infernal Court to kill Zhang Ruochen. I’ve never thought of making an enemy of Yanluo Clan, let alone you. I only wanted to capture Fifth Master Yan and Miss Zhexian in exchange for the chance to leave Hoth. I’ve never thought of hurting them.”
Yan Zhexian didn’t expect Fei Zhong to be so scared of her second uncle. She blinked and said, “You’re talking nonsense. You wanted to capture me to curry favor with some big shot in Celestial Court.”
Fei Zhong said, “Fei Zhong had no such intention.”
“Your puppet said it himself,” Yan Zhexian said.
Fei Zhong said, “Miss Zhexian, you don’t know. That b.a.s.t.a.r.d has developed an independent personality. He probably acted on his own.”
Zhang Ruochen said, “If that’s the case, you kill him.”
“What?”
Fei Zhong gritted his teeth and glared at “Yan Yu”.
Refining this puppet had cost him countless resources, including his blood and soul power. It was impossible to destroy him with his own hands.
This was a superior who was close to a Paramount Realm Supreme Saint.
Zhang Ruochen said, “I’ll spare your life today if you kill him. ”
Fei Zhong clenched his fingers tightly. Blood was almost seeping out of his teeth.
Zhang Ruochen said lightly, “I’ll give you three seconds to consider. One!”
“Two!”
…
“Wait a minute.”
Fei Zhong was sweating profusely. His entire body was trembling. “Will you keep your word?”
Zhang Ruochen said disdainfully, “I, Yan Yu, am called the demiG.o.d’s G.o.d not only because of my profound cultivation but also because I never go back on my words.”
Fei Zhong said, “Good! I’ll trust Second Lord Yan’s words in Infernal Court.”
Fei Zhong gritted his teeth. His heart was bleeding, but he still took out a soul token and pressed it with his finger.
With a crack, the soul token shattered.
In the distance, the puppet screamed in pain. Its soul was destroyed and fell into the void s.p.a.ce.
Yan Zhexian felt relieved and secretly happy about this. Zhang Ruochen’s move was too vicious. If Fei Zhong knew the truth, he would definitely lose his cool.
Zhang Ruochen reached out his hand and grabbed the puppet. He inspected it, “I didn’t expect the dwarves would have such an amazing person. You’re tough, decisive, and quick. We can expect you to reach divinity in the future. You can go now. We’ll definitely have another chance to meet.”
Fei Zhong felt less upset and depressed after being evaluated by Yan Yu.
At the same time, he became vigilant. He thought to himself, “I didn’t expect Yan Yu to be so accomplished in Path of Dimension. There’s no such record in the past. I must report this to the higher-ups when I return to Celestial Court.”
Fei Zhong was about to leave when he suddenly thought of something. He cupped his fists, “Lord Yan, there’s a huge misunderstanding between us. Zhang Ruochen’s body wasn’t taken by Celestial Court. You’re a wise man. Don’t fall for that b*tch’s trap.”
“I’ll investigate this thoroughly.”
Zhang Ruochen nodded and laughed in his heart. It was probably because of the strand of Shang Xia’s hair that he had left behind.
He hadn’t expected that not only did he drive a wedge between Celestial Court and Bai Qing’er, but he had also caused the Yanluo clan to fight against Celestial Court.
It was an unexpected harvest.
Now that the important matter had been settled, Zhang Ruochen only hoped that Fei Zhong would leave as soon as possible so that things wouldn’t change before the ink is dry.
Suddenly, dense lead clouds appeared in the entire s.p.a.ce of the universe. Acid-like raindrops dropped down.
Lightning flashed and thunder rumbled in the clouds. Heavenly fire appeared faintly. The atmosphere was extremely solemn.
ROARRR
A dragon’s roar echoed in the Sea of stars.
An enormous dragon shadow flew through the clouds. Even the scales and claws that were revealed were enough to cover the sky and earth. It was extremely shocking.
Yan Huangtu opened his palm and caught a drop of rain. The palm of his hand was burning from the corrosion.
“Acid Rain, black dragon, it’s him!”
Fei Zhong guessed who the newcomer was and became nervous again.
Facing this person was more stressful than facing Yan Yu.
It was not because the newcomer was stronger than Yan Yu, but because the newcomer was born to kill. At least Yan Yu still talked about principles and rules and was afraid that he would self-destruct his Sainthood Source.
A half-dragon and half-human figure appeared in the dark clouds. Looking down at Fei Zhong, he asked, “Who is that b*tch you’re talking about?”
His voice boomed like a waterfall of sound waves.
Fei Zhong confronted the half-dragon-half-human figure. Saint Aura on his body rose, but it was still suppressed by layers of lead clouds. His momentum was much weaker.
Yan Huangtu murmured to himself, “I didn’t expect the people of Fane of Destiny to come!”
Zhang Ruochen frowned. He didn’t expect Blackwraith, one of the Ten Wraithions, to appear here.
The arrival of Blackwraith could indeed suppress Fei Zhong and completely resolve their crisis.
However, Tensho Compa.s.s was with him. Once Blackwraith finished Fei Zhong off, Zhang Ruochen wouldn’t have an excuse to keep Tensho Compa.s.s.
“Let’s go! We must leave before Blackwraith finds out.”
Zhang Ruochen immediately transmitted his voice to Yan Zhexian and Yan Huangtu, telling them that this was the best time to escape.
Gong Nanfeng, who had been hiding, immediately jumped out when he saw Blackwraith. He was overjoyed and held Zhang Ruochen’s hand, he said excitedly, “Brother Ruochen, the elites of Fane of Destiny are here. We’re saved. There’s no need to act anymore! This is great. We can finally return to Hoth safely.”
Fei Zhong and Blackwraith, who had been confronting each other, looked over at the same time.
The difference was that Blackwraith was looking at Overseer, Gong Nanfeng. Fei Zhong, on the other hand, stared at Zhang Ruochen. He seemed to have guessed something. His arm twitched. He couldn’t help but look at the crushed soul token. His expression was very interesting.
Zhang Ruochen looked at Gong Nanfeng, who was holding his arm tightly. His expression was even more interesting than Fei Zhong’s.
