Chapter 285: Confrontation
Translator: wuxia dream Editor: wuxia dream
The Snow Dragon Island wasn't too hot even during the afternoon.
Especially in the adjacent area of the Snow Dragon Mountain, cool breezes blowing from the mountain made the people living at the foot of the mountain feel very fresh and comfortable.
Inside of a four-story wooden house, the two Sky Realm warriors, Hua Meng and Huang Nan from the Gu family and the Heaven Lake Divine Land, were sitting opposite to the other two young warriors Gu Ling Lung and Qu Yan Qing.
Cao Zhi Lan, He Qing Man, and Pan Zhe were sitting at another place, eating fruits with complicated faces.
After Hua Meng and Huang Nan had delivered the message as Shi Yan had requested, they were still very curious about what had happened to Gu Ling Lung and Qu Yan Qing. They kept asking and finally got some information about the ambiguous origins of the Demonic Sound Clan and the Wings Race. They felt frightened inside of their hearts.
The Kyara Sea was suffering the menace from the Demon Dwellers; now the Demonic Sound Clan and the Wings Race suddenly came here from the Chasm Battlefield. Moreover, these two tribes also had high-class warriors which astonished Hua Meng and Huang Nan very much. They didn't know what the Demonic Sound Clan and the Wings Race had wanted after all.
"Our headman will come here shortly. Until then, hopefully, nothing would happen ..." Hua Meng looked at Gu Ling Lung with a confused face and said, "Our headman has been always arrogant, meanwhile the competence of the Demonic Sound Clan and the Wings Race is still unclear. If he gets angry, perhaps he will fight with these two tribes. If it is to be so, the situation will be hard to settle."
Gu Ling Lung obviously understood Gu Shao's personality, she nodded and said, "I hope our headman can sense the abnormalities on the island."
Qu Yan Qing's picturesque eyebrows knitted while she quietly released a sigh as she also worried for the Divine Mother Yu Qin, who didn't know of the situation on the island yet.
Pan Zhe and Cao Zhi Lan were sitting near there. After having survived through many soul experiments which had been carried out by Shi Yan, Pan Zhe's spirit was extremely down, he had lost his former manners from before. As of now, every time that he saw Shi Yan, he instantly felt cold-hearted within his trembling soul.
When they were at the abandoned land, Shi Yan had considered him his most regular experimental test subject, who had suffered the most from all of his dangerous soul experiments.
Those days were Pan Zhe's most dismal nightmares in his life, of which he didn't dare to think of again. Every time he thought about Shi Yan, he couldn't help but clenched his teeth angrily. Nonetheless, he still really had a big fear of Shi Yan.
"When you return home, what is your plan?" Cao Zhi Lan was the calmest one. Her charming face didn't have any glimpses of anger. She was not hasty, concerned, nor displayed any redundant feelings. "Pan Zhe, I'd like to give you an advice ..."
'What?" Pan Zhe's haggard eyes slightly flared up a lively light. He forced a miserable smile, looking at the beautiful girl next to him, "What advice?"
"Don't think about taking revenge on Shi Yan. You are not able to deal with him." Cao Zhi Lan hesitated a little bit before speaking with a low voice.
Pan Zhe's lips slightly shivered, subconsciously looking out of the window. He shook his head and said, "Did that bastard do something to my body? You could realize it that is so, right?"
Cao Zhi Lan's beautiful eyes contained distraught commiseration. She gently nodded her head and said, "I think he has placed some typical formation technique inside of our souls. Even if that formation technique was precluded, it still leaves the obsession deep inside your spirit. If you confront him in the future, I don't think you have any chances of winning."
Pan Zhe could only reveal a forced smile as he knew that her words were all true. He bowed his head dolefully, released a sigh and mumbled to himself, "He is a monster. It is harder to deal with him than with the Yang people. I hope I won't see him again in the future, considering that I am scared of him ..."
Cao Zhi Lan was surprised, gazing at him for a while. She now realized that Shi Yan had used psychical means to destroy the leader-to-be of the Penglai Divine land. She couldn't help but have a wonderful feeling.
The elderly man in the blue blouse and Devine Mother Yu Qin of the Heaven Lake Divine Land were walking in the void, slowly stepping down from the sky and appeared in front of the wooden house where Hua Meng and Huang Nam were staying.
Gu Shao, with white hair on his two temples and a blue headscarf on his head, looked like an elegant scholar. As soon as they had descended onto the ground, he immediately shouted, "Where is the owner of this place?"
Yu Qin had a charming manner. As the laps of her clothes fluttered, her whole body exposed a holy graceful aura; her bottomless eyes also displayed an outstanding wisdom.
After the two of them had descended, they quietly released their soul consciousness that covered the entire Snow Dragon Island.
However, after their soul consciousness had at once spread out over the entire island, they didn't discover any auras of the God Realm warriors nor even the auras of the Sky Realm warriors.
This had surprised Gu Shao and Yu Qin very much. They became to be more cautious.
Before coming here, they had received information from Hua Meng and Huang Nan stating that there were God Realm warriors on this island and that they were not only ones. Because of this message, the two of them, who could have stirred up the entire ocean with only one stomp, humbled themselves to come here.
Although they didn't really believe that there were God Realm warriors on this island, they did believe that this place should have Sky Realm warriors who were only one step away from the God Realm.
However, since they had arrived on this island, not only didn't they get anything but also didn't sense any powerful living fluctuations. These facts startled them a lot.
As Hua Meng and Huang Nan, who were inside the four-story wooden house, heard the shouts of Gu Shao and Yu Qin. Yet they couldn't help but speak up to reply them. However, they realized that the sounds of their voices couldn't go through the marvelous silver halo of this wooden house.
Outside of the house existed some kind of soul defensive formation, which could prevent souls from investigating and discovering what was inside of the house. Thus, other people couldn't sense their auras even though they were near in a very short distance.
"Don't try any further." When Hua Meng and Huang Nan were trying to shout, Cao Zhi Lan suddenly stood up, quietly walked to the window, and looked out towards Gu Shao and Yu Qi. Her beautiful face displayed a shocked and frightened look, "Gu Shao, the headman of the Gu family and Yu Qin, Divine Mother of the Heaven Lake Divine Land, who both have a tremendous cultivation base of the First Sky of the Spirit Realm, still couldn't locate our existence. This is ..."
Cao Zhi Lan stopped speaking, but all of the other people's faces in the house had changed dramatically, as their hearts frantically beat, their eyes couldn't help but display fear.
"Impossible, absolutely impossible ..." Gu Ling Lung mumbled to herself and didn't believe that it was true. "Great-grandfather has the Spirit Realm cultivation base, how come he can't find out that we are in here, at such a short distance from him? He is definitely doing it on purpose. Right, definitely on purpose!"
"Nothing is impossible." Cao Zhi Lan took a deep breath. "I have always been watching the Demonic Sound Clan. I've realized that this peculiar race has a miraculous soul perception which far surpasses ours. You will not deny in doing this because all of us have already undergone this as well. Ya Meng's body and the profound Qi are not as strong as ours, but he could use his special soul technique to control us as easily as in turning his hand over. This point alone can show how dangerous their spiritual Upanishads are."
Pan Zhe slowly nodded and discouragingly said," Lady Cao is right. This race is much better than us in terms of soul potentials.
"The three leaders of the Demonic Sound Clan all have the God Realm cultivation base. At the same realm with Gu Shao and Divine Mother, their perception of souls and the sea of consciousness is much more profound than that of the other two. This is the truth, we have to believe it. If it is not true, how come Gu Shao and Divine Mother was not able to discover the defensive formation that the three leaders of the Demonic Sound Clan had arranged."
Gu Ling Lung and Qu Yan Qing started to be really worried.
A big and imposing figure quickly glided over from the distant snow mountain and appeared in front of Gu Shao and Yu Qin shortly.
"I am Shi Yan from the Yang family at the Kyara Sea. I would like to greet you two predecessors." Shi Yan clasped his hands together with a respectful manner. He said with a smile, "The two of you come here from thousands of miles far away, which has made me very joyful."
"Shi Yan?" Gu Shao's eyes were like cold sharp swords looking at him and then said with an arrogant manner, "I've never met you before. Let the Elder of the Yang family come out to talk to me. You are not qualified enough to address me."
With a quick glance, Gu Shao could instantly realize that Shi Yan's cultivation base was only at the Third Sky of the Earth Realm. Obviously, he was not worthy enough for Gu Shao to lay his eyes on or even say anything further.
"Let my people go first." Yu Qin's voice was cold although her face still remained lenient. "I want to see the people of the Heaven Lake Divine Land first, then we can discuss with the Yang people. The Yang Tian Emperor has been confined, we don't know who else is worthy enough for us to meet."
Shi Yan knitted his eyebrows, his smiling face gradually got frigid, "You two seem to look down on me."
Gu Shao shook his head and said, "It is not that we are looking down on you. It is just that you are not qualified enough to negotiate with us. Little rascal, call the elders of Yang family to come here. The Yang family has already sunk into the bottom of the Kyara Sea, so if you guys want to mess with us, it is actually not a wise move."
Yu Qin didn't say anything, instead, she kept pacing back and forth in one place with flows of gentle aura emitted from her body, sensing the situation here.
"If it wasn't for you, having united with the Demon Dwellers to deal with the Yang family, the Demon Dwellers couldn't have entered the Kyara Sea and you would not have encountered the current difficult situation." Shi Yan suddenly harrumphed, said daringly, "The reason that the Demon Dwellers have invaded the Kyara Sea is because of your stupidity. I didn't think that you have even repented of what you have done."
"What?" Inside of Gu Shao's eyes flashed up a sword-shaped lightning, which quickly dashed towards Shi Yan.
That sword-shaped lightning, which was as long as a finger, suddenly shot out incomparable sword aura.
That small lightning also contained dozens of tremendous sword shadows, which covered the entire sky and earth as though they wanted to tear the sky down[H1].
As soon as those sword shadows went into Shi Yan's eyes, they immediately turned into thousands of giant swords plunging down from the sky.
The sword shadows appeared everywhere which brought him a feeling of helplessness. He couldn't do anything but to let them cut him up into pieces.
With just one lightning surge flaring up from Gu Shao's eyes, Shi Yan couldn't even have one defending reaction.
"Swoosh"
A black-ink feather suddenly appeared in front of Shi Yan. This black feather swung about, emitting thousands of rippling black waves. As soon as those waves had diffused, the [H2]entire heaven and earth were covered by a black hue, daytime instantly turned into night time in a blink of an eye.
"Boom boom boom"
A series of earth-shaking explosive sounds came out. While Shi Yan was still in a daze, he heard Gu Shao's scream.
In the next blink, the darkness no longer existed, then daylight reappeared.
Gu Shao's face looked very confused. He shouted in fear. "There are God Realm warriors indeed!"
[H1]Or the sky apart. Either or.
[H2]You ate a slice of whole grain bread, not the entire loaf.
