Someone had launched a sneak attack and tried to assassinate them.

However, this person didn’t know Yang Yan’s trump card!

With a sword?

Who could hurt Yang Yan with a sword when they were at the same cultivation prowess?

Crack crack crack!

Before the sword could even get close, it split open in the air.

“What!”

The people who came to assassinate Yang Yan were dumbfounded!

He immediately let go and threw away the sword in his hand.

His body flew backward and landed on the ground.

The hand holding the sword trembled, and blood flowed down.

“Master, it’s the Young Genius of the Clear Wind Sect, Chu Lian,” Leng Biyue introduced.

She was very knowledgeable and knew many Young Geniuses.

“Hmm, kill him,” Yang Yan said.

He would not spare anyone who wanted to kill him.

“Yes, Master.” Leng Biyue took out her favorite mid-grade treasure that she had just obtained.

It was a crescent-shaped object that was flying around her.

A sharp aura was emitted from it as if it could cut through everything.

“Are you still not coming out?” The Young Genius of the Clear Wind Sect, Chu Lian, shouted.

There was more than one person!

Instead, several people were surrounding them and wanted to kill Yang Yan.

“If you guys don’t come out, I might die.” Chu Lian continued.

He saw that Leng Biyue had already flown down, with a crescent-shaped treasure revolving around her.

It cut open the void and emitted a cold killing intent toward him.

“Coming!”

“Coming!”

“Coming!”

At this moment, a group of figures appeared. Including Chu Lian, there were a total of eight people.

Yang Yan had seen two of them before.

One of them was the Holy Son of the Black Sky Sect, Yuan Shaotian.

He was Zhang Yuanlin’s older cousin, and his cultivation prowess was at the Path Palace realm.

In the Drunken Deity Restaurant, he did not dare to make a move.

Just as Yang Yan had expected, he had gone to invite people over.

Zhuo Tian was standing beside him.

He was Yuan Shaotian’s good friend, and his cultivation prowess was also at Path Palace.

Among them, the most eye-catching one was the Innate Sect’s Holy Son, Zhou He!

His body was surrounded by innate energy, which was very magical.

Compared to the Holy Son of the Black Sky Sect, Yuan Shaotian, he looked much stronger.

“What took you guys so long to appear?” Chu Lian said in an unpleasant tone.

He circulated his profound energy to suppress the throbbing in his heart.

“Chu Lian, when you said that you could handle it alone, we thought that you were really that powerful.

“Who knew…” One of the young geniuses didn’t finish.

However, the meaning was obvious. Who knew that Chu Lian would be so weak?

Not only did he fail to kill Yang Yan, but he also didn’t even manage to test the other party’s cultivation prowess.

His sword was destroyed!

“Hmph, I admit that I was too arrogant just now.

“You’d better be careful. That guy is not ordinary.

“The moment I attacked him with my sword, I felt a kind of suppression from the depths of my soul.

“Although my sword doesn’t have any intelligence, I can feel that it’s very scared,” Chu Lian said coldly.

The sword was afraid?

This kind of thing was extremely rare!

“It’s obvious that you’re the one who can’t do it, yet you insist on making it sound like he’s very strong,” Zhou He replied in disdain.

He was suspended in the air with his hands behind his back.

His innate Qi made him look like an immortal.

“Zhou He, since you’re so conceited, then go kill him. I’ll see how you kill him,” Chu Lian said unhappily.

Yuan Shaotian burst out laughing.

“Everyone, let’s stop arguing.

“We’re working partners, so we should be united.

“In any case, the three of them are just lambs waiting to be slaughtered in front of us. We can kill them easily!” he said.

“Shaotian’s right. Let’s stop arguing.

“Let’s kill them first to avoid any future trouble.” Zhuo Tian also came out to be the peacemaker.

Chu Lian nodded.

“Alright.”

A long sword that was filled with an innate aura appeared behind Zhou He’s back. This was a divine sword that the Saint of the Innate Sect had forged for him using innate energy.

Innate Aurora Sword!

Once it was used, its speed would be extremely fast.

“Alright, you guys deal with Leng Biyue. As for Wu Daotian, I’ll go and kill that man.” He grabbed the Innate Aurora Sword.

“Zhou He, wait a moment. Maybe we don’t need to do anything,” Yuan Shaotian said confidently.

Zhou He was stunned.

“Go ahead.”

Yuan Shaotian walked out calmly.

“Leng Biyue, Wu Daotian, both of you kneel down and beg for our forgiveness.

“And immediately join us to deal with him.

“We can spare your lives, or else you will die with him,” he said.

He wanted to sow discord between Leng Biyue and Yang Yan, driving a wedge between them and forcing Leng Biyue to join them.

This way, their chances of winning would be even greater. It would also save them the trouble of killing Leng Biyue and offending the Fairy Sect.

They didn’t even need to do anything to kill Yang Yan. Leng Biyue would do it, and they would pick up what was already done.

Leng Biyue sneered.

“Do you think you can kill me and my master? What a joke!”

Yuan Shaotian shook his head.

“There are eight of us, two of which are Holy Sons.

“Do you think I can’t kill you?

“A wise man submits to circumstances!

“Do you understand?”

“I don’t understand.”

Yuan Shaotian’s face darkened.

“I’m giving you a chance to live, but you don’t want it.

“Since you’re looking for death, don’t blame us.

“Let’s attack together and kill them.

“We’ll take the treasure and avenge my cousin.”

His plan to drive a wedge between them had failed, and his embarrassment turned into anger, revealing his original killing intent.

“That was unnecessary. Why don’t we just kill them directly?” Zhou He said in disdain.

He had thought that Yuan Shaotian had some brilliant tricks up his sleeve.

As he spoke, he walked towards the palanquin with his sword in hand.

“Come out and fight me!” he shouted.

Whoosh!

The curtain of the palanquin was lifted, and Jing Yin and Jing Xin walked out with their swords.

“If you want to fight with the Lord, you have to defeat us first.”

The two of them were Young Geniuses from Convent of Peace, and their cultivation prowess was also at the Path Palace realm.

Their appearance made Yuan Shaotian and the others’ faces change.

Jing Yin, Jing Xin, Wu Daotian, Leng Biyue, and then there’s Yang Yan, who still had not appeared all this time.

There were already five people!

Leng Biyue was heaven’s favorite and a Holy Maiden.

Wu Daotian had the cultivation prowess of the Four Extremes Realm, which was close to the strength of the two Holy Sons.

Including Yang Yan, it was equivalent to about four people at the level of a Holy Son.

On their side, there was only Zhou He and Yuan Shaotian who were Holy Sons.

In terms of numbers, they had more people.

But Chu Lian from the Clear Wind Sect was injured before he even touched Yang Yan, so he could only be considered half a Holy Son.

All in all, their advantage in numbers had disappeared, and they were even at a small disadvantage.

He was already at a disadvantage before he even made a move!

How could he do it?

“Jing Yin, Jing Xin, you two are the Young Geniuses of Convent of Peace. Why are you following him?” Yuan Shaotian asked, full of doubt.

Jing Yin and Jing Xin were expressionless as they spat out five words.

“It’s none of your business!”

Yuan Shaotian opened his mouth, but he fell silent.

It was indeed none of his business!

“Shaotian, should we retreat?” Zhuo Tian said via secret sound transmission.

Originally, they had a good chance of winning!

There was no chance of winning now!

Yuan Shaotian was also a little scared.

“Zhou He, let’s leave first. We’ll think about it later,” he shouted.

Zhou He’s expression changed.

He had a bad feeling and was about to retreat.

“Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh!”

All of a sudden, the wind and waves surged, and a dragon form flew out from the palanquin.

It turned into a small tornado in a short time.

“F*ck, he took the dragon form that appeared in the spine of a Dragon Formation Realm cultivator and refined it. Run!” Chu Lian was shocked.

Their chances of winning were already very slim just now, and now?

How could they win?

“Why does this guy have so many tricks up his sleeve!” Yuan Shaotian said in a serious tone.

When he came, he was full of confidence.

Who would have thought that the other party would have the same amount of time as them and would have obtained more means and trump cards?

“Let’s go,” Yuan Shaotian shouted. “Just wait. I’ll make you pay the price sooner or later.”

Before he left, he even left some harsh words!

Leave?

“Do you think you can leave?”

Yang Yan slowly walked out of the palanquin.
