C58 (1/2)
In the sky, a figure streaked through the sky like a bolt of lightning, heading towards the south from the sky above the seven mountain ranges. A powerful killing intent was emitted from the young man and could be felt from within the circumference of 100 meters. The hidden demon beasts on the mountain range all quietly roared after sensing the killing intent. However, not a single demon beast went to stop them.
Han Yan's eyes were bloodshot, her lips were bitten, and traces of blood dripped from the corners of her mouth. Originally, it should have taken them half a day to fly from the Seven Mountains to the capital. Han Yan had just arrived in the air above the imperial city, countless silhouettes came from all directions, surrounding him in the middle.
These people were not unfamiliar to Han Yan. All of the powerful disciples were present, and there were also ten red-clothed Foundation Establishment stage elders. Zhou Tong was one of them. Similarly, he was the leader of this group. He saw Han Yan flying over at an astonishing speed, her eyes were filled with difference. Han Yan's speed was too fast, it was fast to the point that he could barely manage it with his cultivation.
The other Foundation Establishment stage cultivators looked at each other, then looked at Han Yan with even more vigilance. They no longer considered Han Yan to be a junior in the Qi Cultivating Stage, but rather they considered him to be on equal footing. This was especially true for eldest senior brother Qi Hao, who was unable to believe the scene in front of his eyes. Previously, he had only thought that Han Yan had some ability, but he hadn't thought that after a month of not seeing him, Han Yan would become so strong that she had thoughts of running away.
Qi Hao was shocked, and the rest of the disciples were even more frightened, especially those who had some conflict with Han Yan. Their eyes were filled with worry, and they wished they could leave right now. Of course, there was one person who was even more surprised. It was Tang Xiaofeng. His eyes flashed with a complicated expression.
Tang Xiaofeng saw that Han Yan was emitting a monstrous killing intent, and thought to herself, ”Back then, I just casually gave him a cultivation art, in just a few years, he was able to cultivate to such a level.” Even though his cultivation is only at the 5th level of the Refinement Stage, why does he give me a feeling that she's hard to defeat? Is he really as Senior Brother Zhang Long has said, a spy sent by the State of Zhao?
Two people were missing in this group of people. One was Han Yan's master, Wei Peng, and the other was Ling Shuangshuang.
After Han Yan escaped, the two of them were brought back to the Sky Heaven School for interrogation, and there was no news of them after they left.
Han Yan's gaze swept across everyone and said with an ice-cold tone, ”You also want to stop me?”
Everyone was scanned by Han Yan. Aside from the ten Foundation Establishment cultivators, they all suddenly felt like they had been seen through and they all took a step back.
Although the Foundation Establishment stage cultivator did not move at all, he was still shocked. Zhou Tong took a deep breath and sternly said, ”Han Yan, you have violated the sect rules and have been expelled from the sect. We have been ordered to apprehend you.”
Han Yan's eyes turned cold, she clenched her fist and said word by word, ”I violated the clan's rule, you can punish me as you wish, but why did you kill my parents?” ”Why, why, why …” His voice grew louder and louder as it reverberated in the skies of the capital city. The killing intent he exuded was overflowing, and it seemed that she was about to erupt at any moment.
Let alone Han Yan's cultivation, even that monstrous killing intent was able to affect his mind. He truly could not understand just how much hatred a person had for being able to emit such a huge amount of killing intent. With things having progressed to this point, Zhou Tong did not say anything. He focused his voice and said, ”Han Yan, you've killed someone you should not have killed and committed a heinous crime. Could it be that you can't use this method to lure you back?” As they were all above the capital city, there were countless commoners below watching them. There were some things that were hard to say.
”Hahaha …” Han Yan faced the sky and roared three times, and laughed out of extreme anger, ”Ridiculous, truly laughable. You upright immortals, do you only know such despicable methods to bully the unarmed commoners? ”Didn't you often say that the matter of the cultivation world was resolved by the cultivators, so why did you kill the innocent?”
Han Yan's words made them unable to retort, and all of their faces turned green.
When the crowd surrounding the city heard these words, they began to discuss in low voices.
”This Han Yan is also an immortal. Why would he betray his sect?”
”I'm not sure. The conversation just now should have been one where the deities killed his parents!” Didn't you see that the hand deep within the palm of his hand has not been dyed red? If it wasn't for the deep hatred in the sea of blood, would it have ended up like this? ”
”I think this Han Yan is also a real man. She came back to avenge her parents even though he knew that someone was around to kill him.”
”From the looks of it, the immortals of the Orthodoxy aren't good people either!”
”…”
After hearing the discussions of the crowd, Zhou Tong and the others' faces became even more unsightly, wishing that they could find a hole to hide in.
One of the elders finally couldn't take it anymore and shouted angrily at Han Yan, ”Han Yan, don't slander us!”
Han Yan laughed coldly and said, ”I'm spitting blood. If you have the ability, then tell everyone to go take a look at the immortal platform. Are my parents' souls imprisoned in the black flag on the immortal platform?”
The crowd on the ground grew restless. It was unknown who shouted, ”Let's go take a look. Let's go take a look.” Everyone raised their hands and shouted towards the sky.
Zhou Tong roared, and an invisible pressure enveloped the entire city. Only then did the voices of the crowd come to a halt. He stared at Han Yan, waved his hand and sternly said, ”Do not listen to his nonsense, do it.” With that, he took out his flying sword.
