Chapter 1903 Since You’ve Come, You Aren’t Leaving
Of course, this was on the premise that Li Qianyuan"s strength did not change much. However, even if Li Qianyuan"s strength had further developed, Chu Yunfan was absolutely confident that Li Qianyuan could not be his opponent.
While Li Qianyuan was making rapid progress, Chu Yunfan"s progress was even faster.
After his breakthrough, Chu Yunfan began to head toward the Central Plains. Three days later, he reached a city on a huge island. The place was crowded with people. As the central city of the nearby sea area, the nearby itinerant cultivators gathered here and slowly developed this location into a city.
"I didn"t expect there to be such a city out on the Eastern Sea." Chu Yunfan observed the huge city and found that there were all kinds of barriers above the island. These barriers blocked the monstrous waves and prevented them from hitting the island.
Above the island, many barriers were shining faintly under the sunlight. It looked like a golden world. It was these barriers that protected the entire island, making it different from other places. It had become a holy land for human itinerant cultivators.
Chu Yunfan recalled the information about the Eastern Sea mentioned in "The World". On the East Sea, islands were like stars throughout the endless ocean. These islands were like nodes that controlled the various alleys of the entire Eastern Sea.
Chu Yunfan descended and entered the city. He found that inside, besides the locals of the Eastern Sea, there were many cultivators originating from Grand Xia. The reason he could distinguish them was because the Eastern Sea cultivators had been separated from Grand Xia for a long time, so their clothing style was somewhat different from Grand Xia. Although the difference was not big, it was still easy to distinguish whether they were experts of Grand Xia according to the style of clothing.
As soon as he entered the city, Chu Yunfan noticed that the crowd was moving toward the center of the city. In the center, many cultivators were standing before a house. Everyone seemed to be attracted by something.
On a horizontal board located in this courtyard, there were words carved onto it. It was vigorous and powerful as if it had been carved. The surrounding crowd excitedly discussed the words carved on them.
"Is this the Li clan that Li Qianyuan is from?"
"I didn"t expect the Li clan to leave the Central Plains and come to the Eastern Sea."
"I heard that even Li Qianyuan came here in person. It seems that he came for an ancient inheritance. How unscrupulous."
"Yeah, he has no respect for the various powers of the Eastern Sea, but so what? He"s the Marquis Huntian of Grand Xia, the number one expert of the younger generation. It"s not that no one can kill him, but who can withstand the wrath of Grand Xia?"
Everyone was talking about it, especially the locals who showed indignant expressions. Li Qianyuan did not restrain himself when he came to the Eastern Sea. Instead, he swaggered in as if he had little care for the various forces of the Eastern Sea.
Li Qianyuan had come for an ancient inheritance in the Eastern Sea. In the eyes of many cultivators here, this inheritance should be theirs, but Li Qianyuan wanted to interfere and seize the opportunity that they thought belonged to them. Naturally, this was not welcomed.
There were many masters among the cultivators in the Eastern Sea. It was not that no one could do anything to Li Qianyuan, but no one could bear the anger of Grand Xia.
"Li Qianyuan is here?" A cold glint flashed through Chu Yunfan"s eyes.
He knew that while he was busy improving, Li Qianyuan would definitely not stay where he was. With Li Qianyuan"s influence, he did not need to personally attack Chu Yunfan. He had many ways to target Chu Yunfan from all aspects. On the contrary, Chu Yunfan could only accept it pa.s.sively. This was the biggest gap between Chu Yunfan and Li Qianyuan.
Chu Yunfan suddenly realized that this might be a good opportunity. All along, he had been in the light and Li Qianyuan was in the dark, so he could only pa.s.sively bear Li Qianyuan"s various attacks. But now, it was different. Li Qianyuan came to the Eastern Sea openly and was out in the open. He would not expect Chu Yunfan to be right here as well through a strange combination of factors.
This was Chu Yunfan"s best chance to use Li Qianyuan"s own intentions against him.
Chu Yunfan"s eyes flashed with a calculative light. He didn"t even think of stopping Li Qianyuan from obtaining this ancient inheritance and making great progress in strength. He only had one thought—to take advantage of this opportunity to kill Li Qianyuan.
"Since you"ve come to the Eastern Sea, you aren"t leaving."
Chu Yunfan had planned to kill Li Qianyuan at the husband selection, but now that a new opportunity was in front of him, Chu Yunfan was not about to let go. In particular, Chu Yunfan also suspected that Li Qianyuan had cooperated with the Demon G.o.d Sect before. Otherwise, with the ability of the Demon G.o.d Sect, it was impossible for them to completely block Baotai from sending out news.
That incident must have involved a large number of forces working together behind the scenes. Chu Yunfan didn"t know how big of a commotion the Grand Commandant"s Office had caused in Grand Xia, but he could vaguely guess what happened.
However, Chu Yunfan knew that this matter had to be considered in the long run. Li Qianyuan would not come alone. After all, he came to the Eastern Sea to fight for an inheritance. If someone was determined to target Li Qianyuan, he would probably die.
Chu Yunfan wasn"t the only one targeted by the various forces. Every single one of the prodigies on the prodigy list had been suppressed and targeted by various forces more than once. Those who couldn"t make it through would be removed from the prodigy list. Those who made it through would often welcome a world-shaking change in their cultivation.
Being on the list was both a calamity and an opportunity.
Thinking of this, Chu Yunfan"s appearance quietly changed. He grew by two meters and turned from a handsome young man into a rough-looking middle-aged man. A steel staff appeared in his hand. It was the staff that the ape demon king had used.
Although the ape demon king had easily died at Chu Yunfan"s hands, it was not because it was too weak. On the contrary, Chu Yunfan was too strong at that time. He had reached his limit and even surpa.s.sed it.
There was no doubt about the power of the staff in Chu Yunfan"s hand. Ordinary Creators would be severely injured or even turned into ashes if they were hit by it.
