Chapter 301 - The Superb Adjoin Corpses Flame

Inside the stone hall, cold icy power spread out everywhere. A flow of white dead aura turned out to be composed of devilish faces, wrapping around the stone pillars, which looked like those devils engraved on the stone pillars had just revived.

There were five oil lanterns mounted on the stone wall. The flames were shiny blue and dim, which brought other people a feeling that these flames could have died out at any time.

In front of the wall, at a dark gloomy corner, there was a figure standing lonely.

That person's eyes were glazed; his body was big with the dense miasmatic aura around, which was like a long-time dead corpse.

As soon as he had entered this stone house, Shi Yan couldn't help but frown. His soul consciousness diffused out but impossibly realized any living auras nor streams of souls.

There were no living humans.

That figure over there was actually a corpse with a pale face and stiffened limbs, served as a servant. It probably didn't have a high-level position.

As it saw Shi Yan's group going in, it turned a hook on the wall. A 'creak' sound resounded and the stone wall in front of Shi Yan started to move accordingly to some formation, gradually forming a path running downward.

That corpse was still blankly standing at the corner without any human emotions. It didn't even look at Shi Yan and the other people as if it only had one mission which was to open this path.

Shi Yan's face remained unchanged. He looked at the three people of Yi Tian Mo's group and nodded, then mumbled to himself, "Purposely make a mystery out of simple things."

He slowly stepped down on the stone stairs going deep down inside of the earth. He wanted to see what peculiar things were awaiting him down there.

Although the Corpses God Sect was mysterious as they had cultivated very inhumane secret techniques which had frightened other people, Shi Yan was not afraid of it too much, anyway, the three people of Yi Tian Mo's group had the God Realm cultivation base.

In terms of souls, the three of them were far better than numerous people although their bodies' sturdiness was not as good as the other God Realm warriors.

In a battle, the unity of these three could easily defeat any God Realm warrior. Shi Yan believed that even a God Realm warrior at the highest level would have run away strenuously when being besieged by them.

Under the powerful soul oppression, it could sometimes have been more dangerous than a physical attack.

With the three of them having his back, not to mention this temporary residence of the Corpses God Sect, even the headquarters of the Corpses God Sect would not be able to stop him from entering.

After having gone for about ten zhang, Shi Yan still didn't see any lights.

Luckily, the three people of Yi Tian Mo's group was still following him closely; thus, he wasn't scared, just quietly diffused his soul consciousness around to sense even the tiniest transformation, trying to find the living aura.

"Puff"

In the ink-black darkness where one impossibly saw one's own five fingers, a weak green light suddenly appeared. It didn't look different from fen-fires (atmospheric ghost lights seen by travelers at night, especially over bogs, swamps, or mashes) hovering around in the air. Besides, there was also a dull flame of an oil lamp which was like a ferocious ghost observing around.

A cool breeze flooded over, wanted to absorb itself into his body.

With a cold smile on his face, Shi Yan activated the heating forces of the Sun Refined Spirits. The scorching aura of those forces moved around in his body, burning that cool breeze up.

"Boom"

A blue flame inflamed ahead of them.

After that blue flame had ignited, ten deep blue flames suddenly emerged. In just a breath, there appeared eighteen cups of oil lamps with flickering flames everywhere. The flames lit up the place, hence, the scene also started to appear.

A line of coffins was placed neatly across the cellar.

A flow of dense dead aura spread out from inside of every coffin. The dead aura was chalky.

A flow of dead aura slowly flew to Shi Yan.

Shi Yan's eyes closed slightly, he suddenly shouted, "Show yourself."

The heat of the Thousand Year Earth Flame discharged out of his body. Just in a short time, Shi Yan's body had turned into an igniter, many flames like torches burst out from his body.

Before that dead aura could reach him, it had already smoked fizzingly and been burnt up into ashes. None of the dead aura could have touched him.

Some figures, one by one, descended on the coffins from the roof of the cellar.

The Hierarch of the Corpses God Sect Qing Ming was wearing a black tunic and a blue mask with fangs. He stood on a coffin while his green pupils kept scanning Shi Yan. He then said with a weak voice, "Are you one of the Yang's?"

Yin Hai stood on the coffin on the left, quietly evaluated Shi Yan with somber eyes.

"Consider it true." Shi Yan nodded indifferently, closed his eyes sensing around. He suddenly goggled, looking toward the two yin wooden coffins under Yin Hai's feet, then said with a smile, "I come here for the two Sky corpses in those two coffins. It can be said that they and I somehow have fate. When I had arrived at the Sun Island, these two Sky corpses had called for me, which led me here."

"It's you indeed." Yin Hai's face suddenly changed, becoming more somber. He then grinned and said, "Little rascal, at the burial area number 93 that year, I didn't know which way you used to enthrall my Sky corpses, making them slaughter even their own fellows and helping you escape from the burial area. Well, you are now on the Sun Island, you want to make use of these two Sky corpses again, don't you? Hahaha, today, as the owner of these Sky corpses on this island, I want to see how you can break through my oppressive forces."

"Yin Hai, shut up."

Qing Ming bowed and shouted to prevent Yin Hai from babbling. He then coldly and seriously looked at Shi Yan. He uttered weakly, "At the burial area that year, these two Sky corpses were controlled by you, and didn't obey the great elder Yin Hai's commands. They woke up and acted accordingly to your will. Is this true?"

Shi Yan thought for a while, nodded, and said, "That's true."

There emerged many small flames inside those green eyes. The flames seemed to have some consciousness that allowed them to cooperate with the dead auras here to be able to completely control all the corpses.

"Move!" Qing Ming turned his head, glancing at Yin Hai.

Yin Hai followed that command, leaped up, and landed next to another elder.

Two yin wooden coffins automatically flew up by some unknown forces. The white dead aura covered everywhere. The two coffins then descended in front of Shi Yan.

The Hierarch of the Corpses God Sect, Qing Ming, stretched out his left hand, pointing at the two yin wooden coffins, then shouted with a specific tone, "Go out!"

"Boom"

The two lids of the coffins shot up, two Sky corpses, one male, one female, whom Shi Yan had seen at the burial area number 93, sat up. Their eyes were emotionless. Their bodies were rigid and cold, which looked like a puppet being manipulated by someone.

Shi Yan slightly squinted.

"Is it true that you have seen these two Sky corpses?" Qing Ming asked feebly.

Shi Yan nodded and replied, "That's true. But, these two Sky corpses seem to be oppressed by some forces. The aura inside their bodies is not working. They should have definitely been sealed. Currently, they are only puppets in your hands, and totally let you control them without having the slightest intentions of resistance."

"This little rascal has exceptional eyes." Qing Ming faintly laughed. His laughter was similar to the cry of a ferocious ghost, which was extremely unpleasant to one's ears.

Together with the laughter that could freeze other people, the green pupils of the Hierarch of the Corpses God Sect Qing Minh were getting darker and darker. Many green flames, which were as big as his fingertips, suddenly shot out from his eyes.

The green flame radiated a kind of aura that scared people out of their wits, slowly flying toward the two Sky corpses.

"The Superb Adjoin Corpses Flame!" Right at this time, the Ice Cold Flame instantly sent out a message. "This is one of the Heaven Flames, ranked the ninth. As soon as this corpse flame touches a living creature, the blood cells inside the body will become anomalous. It then becomes a servant corpse, which is controlled by the Superb Adjoin Corpses Flame."

Shi Yan was shaken, moving backward three steps while quietly activated all kinds of defensive forces inside his body to guard against the possibility in which the Hierarch of the Corpses God Sect would use the Superb Adjoin Corpses Flame to attack him.

The green eyes of Qing Ming lit up strangely as if they could see through Shi Yan's precaution.

Many feeble flames, which were controlled by his hands, slowly flew out and disappeared inside the two Sky corpses that were sitting neatly straight up.

As soon as the Superb Adjoin Corpses Flame had gotten into the two Sky corpses, the two of them, one male and one female, also slowly recovered a little bit of aura. The oppressive forces inside of their bodies had melted like the snow in summer. Their rigid bodies became more flexible.

"Little rascal, is the flame inside your body one of the Heaven Flames?" Qing Ming didn't look at the two Sky corpses, instead, he paid attention to Shi Yan's body. "Among the scorching flames, the Sun God of Tang YuanNan belongs to the Sun's heat, so what does your Heaven Flame belong to?"

"I know you have the Superb Adjoin Corpses Flame." Shi Yan frowned, quietly communicated with the tree people of Yi Tian Mo's group, informing them the danger of the Superb Adjoin Corpses Flame. After that, he spoke up with a low voice, "You are the Hierarch of the Corpses God Sect, possess the Superb Adjoin Corpses Flame, master of[DN1] several secret Corpse Control Techniques of the Corpses God Sect. It seems that you have underrated your real cultivation ability."

"That's totally true." Qing Ming wasn't humble at all and revealed a devilish smile. "Although the flame inside your body is indeed a little outstanding, its opposing ability is probably as strong as my Superb Adjoin Corpses Flame. Regretfully, your cultivation base is too low, impossible to truly control it. Therefore, I can easily dominate you. Do you believe it or not?"

"Yes." Shi Yan nodded, then said with a mocking tone, "But you are not able to do it."

"Unable to do it?" The green flame inside Qing Ming's eyes flickered a little bit. The dense yin icy aura emitted from the pores on his body.

At the same time, the three people of Yi Tian Mo's group also realized that the icy aura started to approach them.

More than tens of thousands of soul auras from the three of them flowed out like endless tides, besieging the disciples and the Hierarch of the Corpses God Sect.

Chapter 302 - The King Corpse Made a Roar

All of the white dead auras in the cellar were beaten earth-shakenly, which was like a tornado blasting everywhere.

Sharp Saber Winds ear-splittingly shrieked, leaving many traces on the walls.

Under the dim lights of the oil lamps, on the walls of the cellar emerged countless scratches that were extremely deep, which looked like they were being slashed by a sharp weapon.

Numerous interlacing scratches were heavily carved deep into the stone walls.

Peculiar lights zoomed over out of nowhere, approaching and raiding on the cellar.

The white yin aura abruptly engulfed the flock of the Corpses God Sect's elders, creating a very long yin aura wall wrapping around them.

More than tens of thousands of visible transparent soul forces, which were like the starlight coming from the ether and densely shining on the earth, were violently attacking every corner of the cellar.

The three people of Yi Tian Mo's group shut their eyes half closed. Although they were not moving, their bodies were the gathering place of the starlight. Each beam of the spectacular starlight entangled everyone in the cellar.

Even Shi Yan was not an exception.

Hundreds of flows of starlight pierced into his Sea of Consciousness. Those were the soul starlight of Yi Tian Mo's group, which was like endlessly long as well as extremely tenacious fibers. That soul starlight made it impossible for him to use his Sea of Consciousness nor the five Devils nor his host soul.

The three people of Yi Tian Mo's group obviously didn't target him; however, the oppression that he was suffering was not just a joke.

The green pupils inside the eyes of the Corpses God Sect's Hierarch were full of the starlight fibers.

The three people of Yi Tian Mo's group was controlling him. Through the unknown marvelous secret techniques, most of the starlight fibers had penetrated into Qing Ming's body, entered his head, and tied up his host soul and his Sea of Consciousness.

The host soul and the Sea of Consciousness were the foundations of a warrior, an essential place to control the Superb Adjoin Corpses Flame. So, when the host soul and the Sea of Consciousness were limited, Qing Ming wasn't able to release the consciousness, which obviously prevented him from controlling the Superb Adjoin Corpses Flame and thus, from intimidating Shi Yan.

The yin icy aura was extremely heavy. The Hierarch of the Corpses God Sect Qing Ming was putting all of his powers to break those soul fibers.

The three people of Yi Tian Mo kept smiling faintly, uniting to increase the oppressive soul forces, making extreme use of all kinds of the Demonic Sound Clan's Upanishads.

As being attacked by their souls, Qing Ming had to struggle very hard as the light in his green eyes gradually became gloomier.

Yin Hai, with a somber face, was sitting straight on a yin wooden coffin in silence. His eyes were overwhelmed with fear while his body trembled.

He had already realized the true cultivation base of the three people of Yi Tian Mo's group. Those three God Realm warriors were using their powerful souls to oppress others, which led to the appearance of countless swirls in the cellar.

Anyone who stood close to this place would not be able to escape from the soul attraction forces of the three people of Yi Tian Mo's group. If any intentions of resistance appeared in their heads, they would have to suffer the three people's tide of souls.

The Demonic Sound Clan profoundly understood the soul attack. This understanding was far beyond that of the human warriors. Currently, the three of them united, releasing different kinds of miraculous souls that prevented the Hierarch of the Corpses God Sect to release the Heaven Flame.

As the Hierarch had no more strength to protest, he couldn't do anything else except for miserably sustaining.

In a soul attacking fight, although they were at the same God Realm, Yi Tian Mo alone was enough to dominate him.

Let alone the three of them uniting with each other?!

...

"Alright." Shi Yan swung his hand and said. "I think that Hierarch Qing Ming shouldn't be overconfident like you were. Don't assume that your abilities alone can turn us into corpses."

In fact, Shi Yan had quietly noticed earlier. When the yin aura concentrated on Qing Ming's body, he had realized Qing Ming's wicked intention.

The Superb Adjoin Corpses Flame was hard to deal with. Once this Corpse Flame flew out of Qing Ming's body, it would cover the entire cellar, and thus the three people of Yi Tian Mo's group would have been unable to react.

Although his Ten Thousand Year Earth Flame was dangerous, exactly as what Qing Ming had said, his cultivation base was not high enough to control it.

If they were in a real battle, before the Ten Thousand Year Earth Flame had come close to Qing Ming, it would have been wrapped up by the Superb Adjoin Corpses Flame. Hence, he would have become a corpse of Qing Ming and been enslaved by that Corpse Flame for his entire life.

Qing Ming had had this intention indeed.

He wanted to enslave not only him but also the three people of Yi Tian Mo's group.

That pompous idea had appeared in his head as he had assumed that the power of the Superb Adjoin Corpses Flame was enough to oppress those three people.

Having seen through Qing Ming's evil intention, Shi Yan hadn't gone easy on him anymore. He immediately commanded the three people of Yi Tian Mo's group to use the most powerful soul oppressive forces to hinder him from using the Superb Adjoin Corpses Flame.

...

The three people of Yi Tian Mo's group slowly retrieved more than tens of thousands of flows of soul auras.

Countless lights in the cellar started to dim and fade away and then turned into billions of light dots, going back into the bodies of the three people of Yi Tian Mo's group, which looked like numerous birds flying back to their nests.

There was nothing left in the cellar which had been overwhelmed with murderous aura earlier. The scene was restoring its original peace.

All of the elders of the Corpses God Sect were wearing grave faces; their eyes were full of fear and resentment. They didn't dare to act recklessly though.

Qing Ming's green eyes lit up some green lights. He glanced at Shi Yan and the three people of Yi Tian Mo's group but didn't say a word.

Qing Ming didn't continue taking actions.

"I know because you have realized that the forces inside our bodies were not as mighty as yours, you have arrogantly assumed that relying on your Heaven Flame alone could have had oppressed the three of us." Yi Tian Mo coldly smiled and said disrespectfully, "The Demonic Sound Clan's body structure is not the same as yours. Thus, in the same realm, the Demonic Sound Clan's body cannot be as mighty as the human's. The God power in our bodies isn't as strong as you neither." After pausing for a short while, Yi Tian Mo frigidly continued, "However, this doesn't mean that the Demonic Sound Clan's warriors are not as strong as you at the same level."

"Demonic Sound Clan? Pagans?" Qing Ming was frightened. He said, "Turns out you are the pagans?"

"Hmm," Ka Ba said, "What about pagans? In the ancient times, humankind wasn't the original owner of this continent. Humankind was only one race on this continent, whose power wasn't as strong as those of the other races. If it wasn't because humankind had wicked intentions, took use of the conflicts among the other races to stimulate the war, this continent could have still belonged to our pagan race."

Qing Ming's eyes became serious, scanning all over Ka Ba. He then faintly smiled and asked, "Do you assume that this all that I have?"

"Roammmmmm."

An earth-shaking roar with full of brutal auras reverberated from inside the earth.

Earth-destroyable vibrations were widespread while a flow of tremendous auras covered the entire place at the same time.

Suddenly, all of the yin wooden coffins shook constantly. In this devilish atmosphere, the rattle sounds coming out from inside the coffins had proved that the corpses in those coffins were all active.

The faces of Yin Hai's group displayed a great happiness. They couldn't help but shout out loud, "Hierarch, you have brought it here?"

Qing Ming arrogantly nodded and confidently said, "Maybe my strength alone is not the opponent of the three of you, but together with that old guy underneath the earth, I am afraid that you can't get out of here in one piece."

Shi Yan's face changed.

He had known that there was a creature hiding inside the earth. It was the Thousand Year King Corpse of the Corpses God Sect.

The King Corpse was the actual mighty fighting machine of the Corpses God Sect.

All the information related to the King Corpse had been spread out in the Endless Sea. Any of the high-class warriors who used to fight with the King Corpse had confirmed that it was very mighty.

The King Corpse could be compared with the God Realm warrior. Its real ability was even much stronger than that of a God Realm warrior.

The three people of Yi Tian Mo's group quietly chucked their tongues while their eyebrows slammed together. They were able to sense a violent force through their souls.

However, although that King Corpse had still been hiding inside the earth for the whole time, they hadn't been able to figure it out, which frightened them very much. They felt freezing because of the King Corpse's strength.

After the King Corpse had just made a roar from inside the earth, the entire Sun Island was violently shaken already.

The God Realm warriors on the island were startled and then released their soul consciousness altogether towards the Corpses God Sect's place.

Even the Sun God Tang YuanNan's face also changed in fear. As soon as he had released his soul consciousness, the three people of Li Fu's group arrived, quickly approached and clearly reported the situation, "Shi Yan has come to the Corpses God Sect's place."

Tang YuanNan was startled. Tens of thousands of earth lights emitted from his body and then disappeared into the void.

The yin auras were overwhelming in the cellar. A blazing red dot of light emerged, gradually enlarged and became a dazzling Sun. Space was distorted, the Sun God Tang YuanNan appeared.

The light dimmed as the glowing red face of Tang YuanNan emerged. He was frowning, looking at the Hierarch of the Corpses God Sect then said, "Qing Ming ge, has this place ever done something wrong with you? Why do you want to use the King Corpse to destroy my island?"

The terrifying light in Qing Ming's eyes lessened a little bit. He took a deep breath and said, "Just mistaken."

After a flow of consciousness shot out into underneath the earth from Qing Ming's head, the horrendous aura then slowly receded.

The ancient corpses of Qing Ming now stopped roaring and quietly stayed inside the earth.

Tang YuanNan stood between Qing Ming and Shi Yan. His back was facing Shi Yan. Although he didn't turn his head around, Shi Yan's body still trembled.

He felt that his heart was beating very frantically. His body gradually brightened up like a shooting star in the sky, which made him feel very strange.

Tang YuanNan still didn't turn around, but his body had gotten hotter little by little and eventually glowed.

Each of the Suns gave off a radiant circle of light in the cellar, flooding this cellar with a sea of light. The temperature was gradually increasing.

Chapter 303 - Joint Owner

Shi Yan and Tang YuanNan were five meters away from each other. Their bodies had peculiar transformations simultaneously. At this time, there quietly appeared a fanciful connection between them that affected both of their Martial Spirits.

It was the first time they had met. Although they had never known each other's appearance before, the Martial Spirits inside their bodies had triggered a resonance.

Shi Yan slightly shivered, holding his chest, clenching his teeth and cursing under his breath.

He didn't know anything regarding the Star Martial Spirits. He basically couldn't control these forces.

Shi Yan's heart was beating frantically, deranging all forces inside his body, making them fight against themselves and causing him a lot of pain.

Tang YuanNan didn't seem to have any abnormal changes. His brightening gesture showed that he was very comfortable. His body was radiating many circles of light, one by one. These circles of light moved and covered Shi Yan entirely as he pleased.

"Damn it!" Shi Yan cursed with a ferocious face. Countless negative feelings inside his meridians erupted violently like a volcano.

In an instant, his strong body gradually withered while an extremely devilish force burst out from his meridians.

This evil force had a tremendous and mighty momentum, impetuously oppressed the other spiritual forces that were perversely stirring his heart and helped it back to its normal state.

After gasping a few breaths and taking three steps backward, his radiating body like a cold star gradually recovered.

"Oh?" Tang YuanNan slightly uttered, finally turned his head around to look at Shi Yan with an astonished face. His eyes were like the two small suns projecting dazzling lights that could frighten other people.

Under these powerful eyes, Shi Yan felt painful and didn't dare to look straight to them.

Only until the Ice Cold Flame released the icy power that seeped into his body and slowly gathered in his eyes, he started to adapt with the sunlight from Tang YuanNan's eyes. He then calmly looked at Tang YuanNan and said, "Great Hierarch Tang!"

"We are all from the same sect, no need to be so formal." Tang YuanNan revealed a smile. The sunlight on his body had faded away little by little. He no longer had the intention of testing Shi Yan's ability.

Shi Yan relaxed his whole body. The Star Martial Spirits also became restful as if it didn't see the opponent anymore; hence, it lost interest and stopped provoking and rebelling.

"Same sect ...?" Shi Yan confusedly smiled, slightly shook his head without daring to say anything more.

The Hierarch of the Corpses God Sect Qing Ming frigidly and suspiciously looked at Tang YuanNan and then swept his doubtful eyes over Shi Yan. He revealed a cold smile after a while, "I didn't expect that this little rascal had some relations with the Three Gods Sect. No wonder why Tang ge has come here so fast. It seems that you have come here to protect this child."

"Protect this child?" Tang YuanNan seemed to find it very funny, turned around looking at Qing Ming then burst into laughter, "Even if I didn't get involved, what could have you done to him? Qing Ming ge, don't blame me for not warning you. Shi Yan's forces are much stronger than what you see now. You just think about it yourself."

Qing Ming' eyes brightened up. He started to think about the forces behind Shi Yan.

"I've come here to tell Qing Ming ge that you shouldn't recklessly use the King Corpse." Tang YuanNan's face was very calm as if he was solving an everyday matter. "My island is not able to stand too much of the pressures. I hope Qing Ming ge have some regards for me."

Tang YuanNan turned his head around looking at Shi Yan, revealed a meaningful smile, "Little Rascal, can you behave a little bit? Although you have come to the Sun Island for only two hours, five Earth Realm warriors have already been killed. Three forces denounced you to me, and now, you are fighting with the Hierarch Qing Ming. What do you want to do after all?"

Shi Yan was surprised.

"Before the meeting starts, you shouldn't cause any more troubles." Tang YuanNan reluctantly released a long sigh and said, "Help me save face, OK?"

"Regarding the situation related to the Sevenfold Underworld, have you found out anything?" Shi Yan was startled for a while before asking with his knitting eyebrows.

"Let's wait until the meeting to talk about it. It is too soon to tell now." Tang YuanNan's face was complicated. He slightly nodded and continued, "When the meeting is over, you will go with me to the Moon Island. I have some things to tell you in private."

Shi Yan nodded, implicating that he already understood.

"If there are any problems, tell me. Understand?" Tang YuanNan hesitated a little bit then added while knitting his eyebrows, "Actually, you are the joint owner of this island ..."

The faces of Yin Hai and the flock of elders of the Corpses God Sect instantly changed and displayed fear after having listened to what Tang YuanNan had just said.

Qing Ming's eyes also became very strange.

"Joint owner..." Shi Yan also found it funny. "Alright, I will be more well-behaved and less troublesome. However, you make me feel bad; I won't care about this 'joint owner'. Anyway, a part of my blood is the Yang family's."

"It is good that you understand." Tang YuanNan nodded and said nothing more. A beam of light flashed up, and he disappeared into the void again.

"How is the relation between you and the Three God Sect?" Qing Ming took a deep breath. "As what I have known, the Yang family and the Three Gods Sect have always been against each other for hundreds of years. Although the two sides haven't gotten into any big wars for the last ten years, I have never heard that the Yang family and the Three Gods Sect had any sort of connections."

Shi Yan coldly harrumphed and didn't even bother to reply.

From deep inside his heart, he knew that Tang YuanNan wasn't scared of Qing Ming. That was why Tang YuanNan said that he was a joint owner of the Sun Island. In fact, Tang YuanNan just wanted to entice him.

Through the Corpses God Sect, Tang YuanNan perhaps wanted to spread out the news regarding the relationship between him and the Three Gods Sect, let all of the warriors in the Endless Sea know that besides being a member of the Yang family, Shi Yan was also the Spirit Inheritor of the Three Gods Sect.

He had the Star Martial Spirit, so he would possibly step on the Star Island in the future. Thus, becoming the Spirit Inheritor of the Three Gods Sect was also obvious, especially after the Yang family had hidden in the Demon Area, their power had dramatically declined, and Yang Tian Emperor had not been in a good situation.

Shi Yan also understood that the reason why Tang YuanNan had proactively displayed his good intentions was that the friendly attitude with the Demonic Sound Clan and the Wings Race was also an important factor besides the fact that he possessed the Star Martial Spirits.

The unity of the Demonic Sound Clan and the Wing Race wasn't less powerful than that of any other forces. The fact that Tang YuanNan enticed Shi Yan also meant enticing the Demonic Sound Clan and the Wings Race. This guy's plan was really good.

"The Corpses God Sect doesn't have any hostility with you either." A few moments later, Qing Ming suddenly admitted his mistake. "If you are interested in these two Sky corpses, I can give them to you, considering them my admission of the mistake for the reckless actions at the corpse burial plot number 93. The reason I considered you the corpse refining object that year is because of the trade with the Yin Yang Wonderland. Other than that, we don't have any direct relations with them. What do you think?"

Yin Hai's group was startled with their eyes and mouths wide-opened.

"Two Sky corpses and the resentment between the Corpses God Sect and you will be cleared. How about it?" Qing Ming said with a low voice.

"Hierarch!" Yin Hai was panicked. These two Sky corpses belonged to him.

"Shut up!" Qing Ming shouted out loud.

Yin Hai mused immediately.

"Two Sky corpses ..." Shi Yan frowned, contemplated for a while before saying, "It's ok that way. But, you have to remove all the formation techniques on those Sky corpses as well as wiping out the corpse souls that Yin Hai has been retaining."

"Of course." Qing Ming instantly agreed.

"Cleaning up the things in these two Sky corpses requires some time. Three days, three days later, I will send Yin Hai to bring you these two Sky corpses. How is it?"

"Let's do it that way." Shi Yan dragged a half smile out of the corner of his mouth, clasped his hands conducting the etiquette with Qing Ming.

"Predecessor Qing Ming is very generous indeed. I have learned a lot for today. See you in the meeting." After finishing, Shi Yan turned around and left.

The three people of Yi Tian Mo's group also followed him, quickly left without leaving any traces.

"Hierarch." Yin Hai resentfully bowed his head. "Why?"

"You don't need to know." The green eyes of Qing Ming suddenly flared up peculiar dots of light that formed a miraculous formation. Inside this small formation, a feeble green flame was flickering and then gradually transformed into a small dark blue face.

"There is still a Heaven Flame in his body." A strange consciousness appeared in Qing Ming's head, zooming over his Sea of Consciousness.

"There is something exceptional on his body. Otherwise, the other two Heaven Flames would not have submitted. We temporarily shouldn't confront this guy. Let's carefully observe him for a while first."

Qing Ming quietly nodded. The green hue in his eyes was gradually dimmer; his pupils regained their brown color as usual.

... ... ...

"Master," Yi Tian Mo slightly turned around, pointed towards above the head and said with a small voice, "The God Realm warriors' souls are still watching."

Shi Yan raised his head looking up towards the sky then said with a faint smile, "No need to care about them. They are very arrogant; their subordinates were many. They will not show themselves just because of an Earth Realm warrior like me. I think that they will care about me after the meeting is over. Right now, I am not qualified yet."

"So, are we going back now?" Yi Tian Mo continued asking.

Shi Yan was bewildered, thought for a while and then said, "The three of you go back first. I am going to the Sacred Light Mountain. If I go back now, there would probably be some people coming to find me. That's annoying. And if you guys go with me, it will attract other people's eyes. Hahaha, I also want to relax a little bit."

"Will it be dangerous?" Ka Ba worriedly asked. "Or Yi Tian Mo will go with you, the two of us will go back first."

"No need." Shi Yan shook his head. "You guys go back altogether. Some warriors on this island are still watching you. In their eyes, I am just a messenger. You have overrated their respect towards me. I know you can always use your souls to transmit messages to me. Thus, if something happens, I can also send a message to you. Although this island is not small, it is not big for you either. It won't take too long for you to fly to me with all of your strength."

"Alright. We'll go first then." Yi Tian Mo nodded, bent down to conduct his etiquette before quickly disappearing.

... ... ... ... ...

Shi Yan went straight to the Sacred Light Mountain. He sometimes met some people on the way. A bunch of young warriors with tidy clothes ahead were gathering into groups of three or five, discussing and smiling continually. They didn't seem to be so worried about the Demons Dwellers' invasion; on the contrary, it appeared that they were enjoying the fun and the pleasant atmosphere here.

Shi Yan had already killed five Earth Realm warriors just right after having come here. However, very few people had seen it.

Therefore, most of the warriors from different forces everywhere didn't recognize him while he was on his way. They kept laughing and talking with each other, didn't lay their eyes on him.

The Sacred Light Mountain was the only mountain on the island. It was tens of thousands of zhang tall, like a sky supporting pillar piercing up through the sky.

The Great Sun Holy Palace of the Sun Island was up on the peak of the Sacred Light Mountain, staying hidden inside the hovering misty clouds, being overwhelmed with the blazing summer sunlight day by day.

It was said that this Great Sun Holy Palace had been made of numerous rare mineral stones that could absorb the sunlight and had countless miraculous effects.

There were many hot springs at the Sacred Light Mountain. It was said that those hot springs had varieties of mystical effectiveness which helped women's skin whitening, shiny, and smooth or helped men be energetic. Soaking in this calm, warm water would make people feel refreshed and revitalized again.

At the foot of the Sacred Light Mountain, besides the hot springs, there were also some trading fairs established for exchanging materials, many taverns supplying wine and girls, or typical cultivating rooms exclusively reserved for the warriors.

That was why the foot of the Sacred Light Mountain could attract many outstanding youths from everywhere.

Many young warriors had followed their great masters here for many different purposes. They gathered in groups, being excited and attached, hoping that they could be lucky enough to find their dream treasures.

...

At a sky-blue bathing place, the warm steam hovered about and covered the hot spring. The bathing area was divided into different separating areas by jasper walls. In the middle of the hot spring area, there was a small ellipse-shape lake with the size that was as big as a football field.

Quite a significant number of warriors were bathing and resting in the lake.

A young girl in a thin blouse sunk her slender body into the water of the spring.

Because of the rising steam which almost covered the entire water surface, her figure became ambiguous; even her face couldn't be seen clearly, let alone her prominent body that was hidden under the hot water of the hot spring.

Many pavilions were surrounding the bathing place. Some warriors were leaning against the handrails inside those pavilions, attentively looking at the hot spring. Although they couldn't see anything clearly, a bunch of them all wore an excited and eager face.

Shi Yan walked over to the bathing place and took a quick glance at it. It was indeed impossible to see girls' appearances under this dense, steaming water, let alone to see through the water to watch their mesmerizing bodies.

As he emotionlessly walked into one of the pavilions, he heard the sound of a buoyant discussion of some warriors as well as the scent of wine. He immediately realized that this was the only tavern of this bathing place, which specialized in supplying delicious dishes.

While beaming out a faint smile, Shi Yan felt that his body had loosened a bit and was now relaxed. He stared at that tavern for a while before walking inside.

"Miss Gu, try this. This is the Crescent Moon Crab Meat which can only be found in the Moon Island of the Three Gods Sect. The meat is soft with natural flavor. It is very delicious."

"Miss Qu, try a little bit of this Flowing Clouds Flying Streams. It has been said that this wine has been made of the Sacred Spring inside the Sacred Light Mountain. This sacred wine can mesmerize everyone."

"..." (Much more noises of talking)

Five or six young, good-looking men in tidy and beautiful clothes were smilingly blandishing the two women sitting at the table next to the window.

The women over there were Gu Ling Lung and Qu Yan Qing. Although Gu Ling Lung still wore the strange mask, with the exceptional aura spreading out from her body, as well as her appearance which everyone here had all known of, many men had gone mad with her beauty.

As soon as Shi Yan had stepped in and even before he could find a seat for himself, he heard those voices coming up and couldn't help but feel ridiculous.

He slightly shook his head without saying anything. He found a table near a window and then deliberately looked towards the hot spring where the steam was rising hazily, trying to find a charming figure that was able to attract him.

Chapter 304 - Good Fortune Came Unexpectedly

In front of the window.

Shi Yan's head leaned against the window frame to observe the blue lake down there.

In the immense steam, beautiful figures ambiguously faded in and out.

Many good-looking young warriors with magnificent clothes were also sitting next to the windows like him, talking and laughing, sometimes whistling; they were all very relaxing.

Inside the pavilion, numerous guards of the Three Gods Sect came and went, bringing many free fruits to the tables that had people sitting.

The Sun Island had seldom been opened to welcome the outside world. The warriors, who were present on the Sun Island this time, all followed their great masters of several families or famous sects who were guests of the Three Gods Sect.

Therefore, the bathing places at the foot of the Sacred Light Mountain were opened for free. Even some taverns offered free fruits and food to their guests.

Of course, the Three Gods Sect would not provide the precious and rare food for free. People should have enough money to pay for it.

Shi Yan scanned over the precious food menu of the Three Gods Sect but didn't feel very interested in having them. As he felt that the free fruits were enough, he didn't call the guards to order more food after taking a seat.

An undetected soul message was transmitted into his head. The messenger was Yi Tian Mo.

"Master, there are indeed many people that have come to greet and talk. Among them are the warriors of the Spirit Treasure Wonderland, the Dong Fang family, and the Yin Yang Wonderland, as well as the people that you have taught them a lesson earlier. Do you want to see them?"

Although the soul message of Yi Tian Mo was sent from ten miles far away, it remained very clear and didn't fade away in Shi Yan's head as if Yi Tian Mo was just standing next to him.

After thinking for a while, Shi Yan responded to Yi Tian Mo's soul in his head, "Ignore them. We don't receive anyone."

"Yes." Yi Tian Mo quietly retrieved his soul message first. Shi Yan regained his normal state with his lucid eyes.

"Ah?" Shi Yan exhaled slightly in shock, knitted his eyebrows, looked at the person sitting in front of him then asked with a low voice, "Who are you?"

As he wasn't as good at using the soul as Yi Tian Mo, he had to concentrate all of his spirits to communicate with Yi Tian Mo, and thus, he couldn't notice any changes happening nearby.

After having exchanged messages with Yi Tian Mo, he was immediately beware of a young man sitting right next to him.

This person wore a five-colored tunic. His coat was also colorful with the embroidery of all kinds of exotic flowers and birds.

Although this person's clothes were weird, he was extremely good-looking. His face was elegantly jade-like, and his eyes were like bright stars. His appearance was even more beautiful than that of a beautiful girl.

Under Shi Yan's scrutinized look, this person relaxingly laughed while one of his legs put on one of the tables beside them. He deliberately picked up a cluster of grapes and said with a smile, "I am also traveling to the Endless Sea for sightseeing. My name is Ye ZhangFeng. I used to be a member of the Spirit Treasure Wonderland but have gotten expelled. Now, I don't belong to any forces."

While smiling, he raised his left hand, which was even more delicate than that of a pretty girl, to call a guard who was approaching toward them and said, "Bring four 'Sun Flame' bottles here. This kind of wine is unforgettable."

"Coff."

A heavy bag of Crystal Coins was launched from his palm and exactly fell into the hand of the Three Gods Sect's guard.

"We both drink and watch beautiful girls at the same time. Hahaha, I am very interested in beautiful girls, so we can comfortably discuss with each other."

This person didn't show any signs of formalities whatsoever. He took an apple and aggressively bit it then smilingly pointed towards Gu Ling Lung and Qu Yan Qing, lowered his voice and said, "Those two girls over there are real precious food. One of them is the daughter of the Gu family; the other is the Holy Maiden of the Heaven Lake Divine Land. They not only have exceptional appearances but are also the outstanding warriors on the Power Rankings. Especially the Holy Maiden of the Heaven Lake Divine Lan, the face behind that mask will surely make people long for it day and night ..."

Ye ZhangFeng's face seemed to be very excited. He flicked his tongue with half-closed eyes and revealed a big grin.

While he was talking, a guard of the Three Gods Sect had already brought four bottles of the 'Sun Flame' and some snacks.

He lazily stood up, grabbed a bottle of the 'Sun Flame', threw his head back guzzling a few gulps of wine then wiped his mouth and complimented, "This wine is amazing."

Shi Yan leaned his back against the chair, slightly squinted, coldly looking at Ye ZhangFeng without saying anything.

"Do you want to try a sip?" Ye ZhangFeng spoke up, put a bottle of the 'Sun Flame' in front of Shi Yan and seriously said, "Only the Three Gods Sect has this wine. It has been made by a Sun God. You will feel that your tummy is in flames after drinking it. It is both subtle and hot, absolutely a good wine for a man."

Shi Yan contemplated and didn't say a word. He took the 'Sun Flame' bottle, held his face up drinking almost half of the bottle in one breath. He then frigidly looked at Ye ZhangFeng and said, "Spit it out. Why are you looking for me?"

Ye ZhangFeng's face stiffened. He rubbed his cheek and said with an embarrassed smile, "You realized it?"

"You have the Purgatory True Flame which ranks number 4 on the Heaven Flames list. Moreover, you have also fused with that Purgatory True Flame. Your understanding of the Heaven Flames is not less than that of the Corpses God Sect's Hierarch Qing Ming. You also know about his Superb Adjoin Corpses Flame while you are just in the Earth Realm. You have probably met Qing Ming earlier." Shi Yan coldly said. "Heaven Flames can sense and detect each other. As you are sitting in front of me, I can apparently sense the Heaven Flame's aura on your body. I just want to know what you are going to do after all?"

Heaven Flames can absorb and support each other. If one Heaven Flame consumes another one, it will bring that Heaven Flame itself and its owner a marvelous benefit.

A half hour ago, Shi Yan and the Corpses God Sect had confronted. He also knew that Qing Ming had the greed for his Heaven Flame.

If the three people of Yi Tian Mo's group hadn't been there, or Tang YuanNan hadn't appeared to warn Qing Ming, Qing Ming would have recklessly found all the ways to absorb his Heaven Flame.

If Qing Ming had absorbed the Ten Thousand Year Earth Flame, his God Realm would have entered a new level, and his strength then could frighten everyone.

As Ye ZhangFeng possessed the Purgatory True Flame, Shi Yan had to be very careful with him.

"The Purgatory True Flame originates from the purgatory, which is the origination of the Purgatory Flame that ranks number 4 among the Heaven Flames. The Purgatory True Flame can melt down all mineral metals. Therefore, the Purgatory True Flame can not only prevent the enemies but also refine medicinal pills and secret treasures. The person who possesses the Purgatory True Flame can also become an Alchemist or a Blacksmith. In terms of the achievements in these two fields, ordinary people are completely on the losing ground ..."

The Ice Cold Flame sent out a message from the Blood Vein Ring to help Shi Yan understand a little bit more about the attributes of the Purgatory True Flame.

"Don't misunderstand." Ye ZhangFeng laughed while raising his hand, implicating that he didn't have any wicked intentions. As he didn't see Shi Yan having any abnormal actions, he then regained his previous deliberate manner, laughed and said, "I meet you here unexpectedly. I have come to this tavern to drink and then realized that you have the Heaven Flame's aura; hence, I walked over here."

"That's good." Shi Yan nodded with calm eyes. He sedately ate fruits and drank the good wine of Ye ZhangFeng, relaxingly watching the hot water lake, ignoring the other person.

"In fact..." Ye ZhangFeng wanted to say something but then stopped.

Shi Yan didn't look at him pretending not to hear it and continued watching the lake down there.

"I want to make a trade with you. I don't know what kind of your Heaven Flame is, but I think that you can help me successfully refine some Sacred Level Secret Treasures."

Ye ZhangFeng said with flaming bad ambitions and burning eyes, "Although I have the Purgatory True Flame, my cultivation base is too low, which prevents me from being able to make use all of the Purgatory True Flame's forces. Meanwhile, refining Sacred Level Secret Treasures requires a persistent heating flame for a long time. That is why I couldn't do it."

"Not interested." Shi Yan didn't turn his head and directly refused him.

"You are not taking this chance to deprive him of the Purgatory True Flame that resides in his body?" The Ice Cold Flame sent out a message. "Although this little rascal's cultivation base is the same as yours, killing him is not a difficult task with your true ability. After he is dead, you can absorb the Purgatory True Flame. What do you think?"

"He only has the Earth Realm cultivation base, but he could fuse it with his own body. Do you think that he is that easy to deal with?" Shi Yan beamed out a faint smile. "As what I have known, it seems that only the True God warriors are qualified enough to fuse the Heaven Flames with their bodies. When I've met Qing Ming, I could feel that his fusion was even less than that of this little rascal. I don't think we should recklessly do anything."

"Make sense. This person is indeed a little peculiar." The Ice Cold Flame agreed with Shi Yan.

"Honestly, I am more interested in Qing Ming's Heaven Flame ..."

"Ah, aren't you crazy? Qing Ming is a God Realm warrior. His Superb Adjoin Corpses Flame is very anomalous. Although his fusion with the Superb Adjoin Corpses Flame is not as good as that of this little rascal, his realm is very high, which allows him to make great use of the Superb Adjoin Corpses Flame's powers. Have you gone mad?"

"Probably. If I am interested in Qing Ming, so are other people. We will see how the situation goes and find the right time to take action."

"..." (silent)

When the Ice Cold Flame and he were secretly communicating, Ye ZhangFeng worriedly rubbed his face.

After a long while, Ye ZhangFeng suddenly clenched his teeth and hatefully said, "If you can help me, the Sacred Level Secret Treasure will be yours if it can be successfully refined."

Shi Yan's eyes brightened up; he turned his head around looking at Ye ZhangFeng as if he was a stupid person. "Are you insane?"

"Going to be," Ye ZhangFeng laughed strangely. "You also know the value of a Sacred Level Secret Treasure. In the Endless Sea, each Sacred Level Secret Treasure is the thing to guard the sect. I am willing to give it to you because I want you to help me."

"So, what will you get after that?" Shi Yan was startled, unable to understand.

"My cultivating technique is a little bit specific. Breaking through the realm is carried out through the secret treasure refinement. If I am successful in refining a Sacred Level Secret Treasure, I can break through directly to the Nirvana Realm from the Earth Realm, even possibly enter the Spirit Realm." Ye ZhangFeng thought a little bit before speaking with his heating eyes.

Shi Yan's body was agitated. He said with a low voice, "It seems you also get many good things."

"If I don't have anything in return, why I have to give you that much?" Ye ZhangFeng forced a smile and continued, "If I want to refine a secret treasure, I have to find a person with the Heaven Flame and ask for his help. This thing... although I know that the Corpses God Sect's Hierarch Qing Ming has the Heaven Flame, I don't dare to cooperate with him. As you have known, the Heaven Flames can devour each other, my cultivation base is much less than his, and I have also lost the support from the Spirit Treasure Wonderland. Hence, I don't dare to ..."

Shi Yan kept silent, knitted his eyebrows, carefully considering the pros and cons. He couldn't help but have a feeling that a cake had just fallen from the heaven. After using his Heaven Flame to help that guy, he could obtain a Sacred Level Secret Treasure. Wasn't it similar to find a fortune out of expectation?!

"Little rascal, are you sure about that?" After contemplating for a while, Shi Yan suddenly remembered this matter then asked. "Don't tell me that you are not sure and just want to take me as an experimental test subject. And then, everything comes to nothing at the end. I warn you; I am very busy, I don't have too much time to make a joke with you."

"No worries, I have tried it many times before." Ye ZhangFeng arrogantly laughed and confidently said, "If you agree to help me, I assure that you will have a Sacred Level Secret Treasure. Believe me."

"Alright. I trust you this time." Shi Yan dragged a half smile out of the corner of his mouth then said, "I agree."

"That's good. Let talk about details." Ye ZhangFeng took one step forward and lowered his voice, "I have prepared enough materials, just lack one typical material which is the particular Profound Level Secret Treasure, it is ..."

"Clacking clacking."

Right at this time, many hasty footsteps reverberated from the stairs. A gentle-to-bone voice came up, "Ye ZhangFeng, come out."

Ye ZhangFeng was dumbstruck with an embarrassed face, quickly turned his back toward the door, pretending like he was attentively watching the hot water lake.

His outstandingly handsome face was suddenly distorted; his bones changed; his facial skin was pulled together...

Just in three breaths, his face had changed from the appearance of a white-face young man to a dry yellow face with gloomy eyes; even the angel-like attraction had also disappeared.

"Wandering in this world, one always needs some self-protection tricks. Hehe."

Ye ZhanFeng relaxed his body, swinging his legs and continued drinking wine without being worried at all.

Chapter 305 - Dare to Come Here and Play with Me in the Water?

Not long after that, a beautiful girl with a petite body in blue clothes stepped up from the stairs.

Although this girl had a pretty yet dainty body, her full breasts were extraordinary big, stodgy, and dominantly heaved. They were quite bigger than those of other beautiful girls that Shi Yan had ever met.

Her skin was of a jade-like white hue and as splendid as lights radiating from a gem. As soon as this girl stepped up, all the men in the tavern were startled, watching her without blinking.

She had a pure and perfectly pretty face; her moves were extremely adorable and agile; together with her stodgy firm breasts, everything had made a blow-minding appeal of this girl.

Even Shi Yan's eyes brightened, staring at that girl, secretly complimenting her.

Ye ZhangFeng turned his back to that girl and winked at Shi Yan, implicating that he shouldn't draw that girl's attention which might bring him some troubles.

Shi Yan chuckled, knitted his eyebrows, took the bottle of wine, held his head back and drank some sips. He then shook his head and said, "Such a regret."

Ye ZhangFeng was bewildered, moved closer and asked, "What regret?"

"Such a delicious fresh cabbage like that is tormented by scum like you." Shi Yan coldly harrumphed then said with a low voice, "Why is she looking for you?"

"Nothing ..." Ye ZhangFeng forced a smile.

That girl stepped into the room, tweaked her back several times. Her almond-shaped eyes on the ferocious face started to scan from the last tables to the other side without letting any warriors escape from her sight.

The warriors from different Seas all revealed a big smile, lifted up their heads and straightened their backs, trying to show that they were extraordinarily eminent.

The girl faintly smiled with disrelish on her face. After glimpsing all the people here and being unable to find the person she wanted, she hastily turned around and left.

"Little Mei-mei (Chinese way to call a younger girl), you come sit here and have some drinks with me." A guy at the Second Sky of the Disaster Realm lustfully smiled while looking at that girl and then proactively walked closer to her.

"You want to die ...?" Ye ZhangFeng suddenly lowered his head, slightly breathing. He reluctantly shook his head and released a sigh as if he was whining for the others' fate.

Shi Yan was astonished, but then he immediately understood why Ye ZhangFeng had sighed.

That pretty girl with ample bosom gently took actions, pulling that guy, grabbing his waist and throwing him away. This disturbing Disaster Realm warrior flew straight out of the window. While he was still in the air, his head exploded; blood spattered everywhere. He was dead even before falling in the lake.

"Boom."

That girl's snow-white hand was gently placed on the table, a tremendous aura massively transmitted to that table.

In an instant, that wooden table broke into four or five pieces, each of which shot out like a dazzling sharp sword, dashing straight to the three Disaster Realm warriors who were lustfully smiling on their chairs.

A scream like a stuck pig resounded and then ceased instantly. The girl took out a silk handkerchief and wiped away some drops of wine on her hand. She didn't care about those three bodies beside her and continued to walk forward to search instead.

With her ferocious eyes, she carefully looked at every single person. The whole tavern was deadly silent without any sound.

The previous boisterous noise seemed to disappear. The lustful eyes now became frightened.

At this time, the tavern was so quiet that even the sound of a falling needle could also be heard. All eyes were on that girl. Shi Yan was not an exception either.

Four mild flows of bloody aura from the lake and the broken table flew towards Shi Yan.

Shi Yan's spirit was very comfortable like being fed when hungry. He had killed five Earth Realm warriors and obtained five flows of aura today. Now, he got another four streams of the four Disaster Realm warriors' aura. He was very satisfied with this achievement and thus was more interest in crowded places.

The more people they have, the easier that conflicts could happen, which benefited his miraculous Martial Spirits more.

That girl goggled her eyes, freely going back and forth in the tavern which was now as quiet as a mouse. Although her eyes displayed impatience, she still maintained a gentle voice, "Ye ZhangFeng, even if you are dead, you have to come out now. Master needs to see you."

Shi Yan saw Ye ZhangFeng continue eating without looking at that girl. However, his face was stiff, which didn't match with his deliberate manner.

"Master has said that if you don't go back in one hour, he will kill your demon beast mount."

That girl was both searching and gently intimidating at the same time, "If you don't go back in two hours, Master will destroy the Perishing Spirit Formation's Mouth that you have created. And if you still don't show up, he would smash the Divine Incense Tripod."

Ye ZhangFeng was still busy with eating while forcing a miserable smile on his face as if someone had controlled his fate. He released a sigh and dolefully said, "Jie, give me the Spiritual Stones."

The girl's eyes were brightened while revealing a smile. Her eyes were half closed forming a new moon shape, which was very adorable. "That's good. Master just wants good things for you. You should honestly tell the truth and then obediently go back. He will not make it hard on you."

After speaking, the girl walked over and stood in front of Shi Yan, hauled out a triangle-shaped silver yin stone and gave it to Ye ZhangFeng. After that, she pushed Ye ZhangFeng to the other seat and then sat down on the chair that he had just left.

"Clatter."

The bottle of wine fell on the ground. The girl eyed Shi Yan curiously and said, "This bastard Ye ZhangFeng is a troublemaker. You shouldn't get involved with him. No matter what he suggests, you better not to agree. Otherwise, the one who suffers loss is you."

Shi Yan's face became peculiar.

"Korf korf korf ..." Ye ZhangFeng constantly coughed; his face turned red. He cruelly goggled at her and scolded, "Lin Ya Qi, can you not cause me any more troubles?"

"I am only speaking the truth." The girl lifted her face up and contemptuously said.

"Shi Yan!" A light shout suddenly arose from the table ahead. Gu Ling Lung stood up, biting her lips and clenching her teeth. Her face was full of resentment, and her eyes were flooded with hatred. It looked like she was about to risk her life.

Qu Yan Qing was stunned as she hadn't expected that she would see Shi Yan here. However, the hesitance appeared in her eyes, just like she was quietly considering something.

She didn't stand up like Gu Ling Lung. It seemed she was afraid of something.

Shi Yan knitted his eyebrows, looking at that direction. He then poured a cup of wine for himself, raised it towards Gu Ling Lung and said with a smile, "Very glad to meet you here."

"I am not happy at all!" Gu Ling Lung's face was overwhelmed with anger. "You, a dirty unscrupulous bastard like you also come to the Sun Island. Aren't you afraid that people here will devour you?"

Shi Yan shrugged and said, "Isn't it that I am still fine now?"

Gu Ling Lung gnashed her teeth and was about to say something, but then four Earth Realm warriors sitting beside her suddenly stood up, rushing towards Shi Yan with unfriendly manners.

Those four were all at the First or Second Sky of Earth Realm with arrogant gestures and notable appearances. As they saw Gu Ling Lung being angry, they wanted to show off their abilities a little bit to win her heart.

The guy leading wore a hat and white martial attire. Before taking actions, he gently asked Lin Ya Qi, "Does this man have any relations to you?"

Lin Ya Qi shook her head, "I don't know him."

Ye ZhangFeng faintly smiled, lazily leaned backward, didn't seem to help Shi Yan out willingly. He waved his hand and said, "If you want to fight, get a little bit further away from me. If you don't touch me, I will not get angry."

"Ling Lung," Qu Yan Qing stood up eventually, staring at Gu Ling Lung then said with a low voice, "Do you intend to let them die?"

"Flies that buzz around annoys me. They deserve to die." Gu Ling Lung coldly replied.

Reluctantly, Qu Yan Qing seriously said, "Han Feng, you shouldn't make a mess here. You guys are not his opponents. Moreover, our hatred is not your business."

The guy leading's face looked a little strange after hearing this. He turned his head around glancing at Qu Yan Qing and said, "Miss Qu, you have underestimated us too much."

"I don't underestimate you." Qu Yan Qing continued. "You guys are not his opponents. Even if you guys attack altogether, death is the only way that awaits you guys."

The warriors in the tavern were all astonished after hearing this. Even Lin Ya Qi was dazzled, knitted her eyebrows, pulled Ye ZhangFeng's blouse and asked, "Little Bai, is this friend of yours dangerous?"

Ye ZhangFeng shook his head and said while chuckling, "I don't know."

Shi Yan was drinking wine alone, didn't care about the four warriors who were provoking him. He only indifferently looked at Lin Ya Qi and Ye ZhangFeng in front of him and then shifted his eyes toward the lake through the window.

After hearing Qu Yan Qing's advice, the faces of those four warriors, who wanted to win a beauty's heart, got darkened. They stood behind Shi Yan's back hesitantly, considering if they should hazardously take actions.

Shi Yan was still acting normal, concentrating on the hot water lake, looking toward a mermaid inside the lake.

At the southwest corner of the densely steamy lake, a charming figure was swimming like a mermaid. This woman was regularly coming up and down out of the water.

That beautiful figure was ambiguously flashing on and off inside the steam. Other people certainly couldn't see it clearly, so they would feel so unpleasantly curious that made them want to come closer to have a better look to see how beautiful that figure was.

In the turquoise water, that woman sometimes looked toward Shi Yan and smiled as if she was proudly displaying her appealing body.

Beside her, there were about ten warriors from different forces in the Endless Sea. They were all passionately watching her with enjoyable eyes but didn't dare to come closer.

In the tavern, some warriors were also looking towards her with astonished eyes which glued on the girl's mesmerizing body that could drive others crazy.

Many of them whistled and resented not being able to jump into the water, coming closer to admire her beauty.

"Do you dare come here and play with me in the water?" Under the scrutinized looks of numerous warriors, that woman raised her snow-white arm, pointing towards Shi Yan while provokingly smiling. "Shi Yan, if you have the gut to come down here, I will agree to let you bathe next to me."

Chapter 306 - Eyes of Love

"Do you dare to come down here?"

In the large bathing area, many moving lights were surrounding Cao Zhi Lan. Her mesmerizing face gradually appeared clearer.

The misty steam hovered around her body like a real living creature dancing, following her gentle movements. It gave people a feeling that a long white eel was moderately and slenderly mincing around her.

Standing in the lake, Cao Zhi Lan consistently revealed a big smile on her beautiful face. In front of other people, she didn't seem to be scared nor shy. Her small jade-like finger pointed towards Shi Yan from a distance while her breath was provokingly rambling.

Everyone clamored.

No matter if it was either male or female warriors in this bathing area, or the outstanding youths surrounding, or those who recognized her or not, everyone was startled.

Following the direction that Cao Zhi Lan's jade-like finger was pointing, everyone nervously searched for the target and eventually found Shi Yan by the window.

Under countless attentive looks, Shi Yan's face remained normal as if he didn't know that he had become their target. He continued drinking alone without paying any attentions to Cao Zhi Lan's words. He didn't show any abnormal changes and maintained his indifferent manner.

Lin Ya Qi and Ye ZhangFeng beside him were also bewildered, looking at him with strange faces.

After having heard Cao Zhi Lan's words, more than ten young warriors in the tavern surprisingly looked at him with the eyes full of horror, admirability, envy, discontentment, suspicion, etc. While many thoughts were spinning in their heads, they were quietly speculating Shi Yan's identity.

The four young warriors, who had had the intention of disturbance, were in a daze behind Shi Yan like wooden cocks, standing like a post without any reactions.

Gu Ling Lung secretly gritted her teeth, felt angry and hateful at the same time while quietly cursing Cao Zhi Lan.

Qu Yan Qing slowly sat down, bowed her head without uttering a word. Nobody knew what she was thinking.

"Is the daughter of the Cao Family calling you?" Ye ZhangFeng was startled for a while then shuddered and said with a strange face, "Brother, who are you after all? I know this Cao Zhi Lan. This woman is famous for her beauty in the Endless Sea. Numerous people have gone mad because of her. I have never heard that she has ever laid her eyes on anyone. But, you could do it, even make her take the initiative. How did you do it?"

Shi Yan shook his head with a cold face, "She is mentally ill."

Lin Ya Qi chuckled, constantly nodding. "She got a mental disorder indeed. She can shamelessly do something like this in front of so many people. I genuinely admired this woman."

"Aren't you coming down?"

Ye ZhangFeng said, "For countless people in the Endless Sea, that woman is the dreaming precious treasure. She has proactively been asking for you. What are you waiting for?"

Numerous eyes were fixed on Shi Yan, and everyone with different expressions seemed to wait for something to happen.

Cao Zhi Lan gently smiled like a cherry blossom budding which was incredibly beautiful. Her curves were covered by many rays of light; her hair was soft and shiny; her full lips were red and appealing. She raised her voice and continued, "Shi Yan, why are you scared of me? You are afraid that I will devour you?"

In the tavern, a woman with waist-length hair was startled, covering her mouth, unbelievably looking at Shi Yan.

"Clank."

The tray in her hands fell to the ground; green fruits scattered, rolling everywhere.

"LinDa!" The other woman next to her quietly shouted. "Stop being dazed."

LinDa covered her mouth with astonishment. She just stood there, bewilderedly looking at Shi Yan from a distance, didn't seem to hear the voice of the person beside her.

"Lan jie, what are you doing?"

A loud shout suddenly came up from the left of Shi Yan. A two-meter-tall man with an extremely sturdy body and a ferocious red face was staring at Shi Yan.

He wore a rustic animal leather cloth that was wrapping around his body, exposing a tanned skin with dense scars. The exposure of firm muscles indicated an endlessly mighty strength.

"Man Gu, don't poke your nose into my business." Cao Zhi Lan still kept her mesmerizing smile on her face while her eyes were silently looking toward Shi Yan. She continued provoking Shi Yan, "Shi Yan, you don't have the guts to do it?"

"The daughter of the Cao family is insane."

"She has gone mad indeed."

"After all, is that her? I have heard that she has never had any feelings for any man. How is this possible then?"

"It is certainly her. Otherwise, how come Man Gu of the Uncultivated Barbarian Sect have gotten angry like that?"

"..."

Near the lake, in the tavern, the clamor was rising; the majority of the warriors were gathering in groups of five or seven and boisterously discussing together.

In just a short time, Shi Yan had unexpectedly become the interest of everyone. All of them were guessing his identity, wanted to know the relationship between him and Cao Zhi Lan.

At the trading area from a distance, there was a person with a black veil covering the face. As that person heard the clamor at the bathing area, that one couldn't help but walk over, stood on the road of the trading area, looking towards this place.

After glimpsing quickly, that person suddenly shuddered. The eyes with mixed and confused emotions looked at Shi Yan without blinking.

It seemed that Shi Yan also felt something. He suddenly turned around looking towards that person.

Four eyes met. There were as if a lightning flashing up, and countless feelings had been transmitted through this lightning.

Those who were looking at Shi Yan all realized that Shi Yan's eyes had changed. They subconsciously shifted their eyes toward the direction of his look, but everything they could see was a pair of beautiful, bright, deep eyes.

After suddenly turned his head back again, under many scrutinized looks, Shi Yan dragged a half smile out of the corner of his mouth then said, "It is not that I don't dare to come down. I am grateful with your intention. Regretfully, I have been taken. If you want to become my favorite, you have to try harder. And first, it needs to be accepted by her." Shi Yan pointed towards the person in the black veil.

Under the attentive looks of other people, that woman removed her black veil, exposing an exceptionally bewitching beauty.

She gently and slenderly leaped up, slowly took step by step towards Shi Yan. She was like a peri sent from heaven with beautifully elegant manners.

In the steamy weather, she deliberately walked through the window in front of Shi Yan then descended and stood next to him.

Everyone clamored again.

"Xia XinYan of the Kyara Sea."

"That is her indeed. The Reincarnation Martial Spirit is unimaginably miraculous. Finally, we have witnessed it today."

"Who is that little rascal? Why are the two most beautiful flowers of the Endless Sea following him?"

"Shi Yan. Have you heard about this name?"

"Only devil knows. Damn it. I don't understand anything. How come Miss Cao, the one I have highly admired, could recklessly act like this just because of this bastard."

"..."

Most of the young warriors showed their sadness and disappointment. They angrily clenched their teeth, staring at Shi Yan, resenting not to be able to devour him.

Many girls, on the contrary, displayed their excitement. Their eyes were flooded with curious beams, interestingly looking at Shi Yan, wanting to know what kind of mystical attraction that Shi Yan had which made him able to draw the admirability of the two beautiful women, Cao Zhi Lan and Xia XinYan.

Instantly, inside the bathing area, as well as the outside, people boisterously discussed what was happening.

"When have you arrived?" Shi Yan gently asked.

Sitting down next to Shi Yan, without looking at Cao Zhi Lan's angry face in the lake, Xia XinYan revealed a smile, "I've just arrived this morning. The Three Gods Sect has invited us. My grandfather is coming here with me as well. Tang YuanNan is very thoughtful."

Shi Yan nodded. He stretched out his hand holding her jade-like hand, but she resentfully pushed it away. She also gave him a black look. "This is wrong. You dare to upset Cao jie! I will beat you to death."

A roar resounded. Man Gu of the Uncultivated Barbarian Sect with the ferocious, sturdy body like the one of a tiger or a panther suddenly dashed towards Shi Yan.

"Swoosh swoosh swoosh."

An ear-splitting sound came up in the air. As soon as Man Gu leaped up into the air, a tremendous power spread out from his body.

Shi Yan knitted his eyebrows. His eyes turned to be frigid.

"Slosh slosh slosh."

Water shot up from the bathing area below Man Gu. The pellucid water pillars rocketed and then flew straight toward him.

"Get lost!" Man Gu shouted. The sound-wave, which was like tens of thousands of swords, directly struck those splendid water pillars that were massively approaching.

The sword lights slashed those water pillars which were like stone cylinders, breaking them into plenty of water drops that splattered everywhere in the air.

Man Gu stomped on a huge water drop and then brutally dashed towards Shi Yan.

Lightning flashed up. A big black club suddenly emerged in Ma Gu's hand.

Thunder resounded. Countless sharp rays of light radiated from the big, pure, spectacular club, dragging along the incomparable their aura. They darted towards Shi Yan's chest altogether just in a blink.

"Watch out!" Ye ZhangFeng quietly shouted but remained at his spot, except for frowning a little.

Lin Ya Qi showed her excitement. Her face was glowing red, but her voice was still very gentle, "That freak has the innate God strength. It has been said that he's killed a Nirvana Realm warrior just by one strike. We can witness his danger today. Hahaha, he is putting all of the hatred into his actions this time. We are going to see an interesting play."

The energetic seals, which were created by the convergence of lights, emerged in Shi Yan's palms. Layer after layer of these seals heaped up into one which was then impetuously shot out of his palm.

"The Life Seal!"

Seven seals merged into one which was as heavy as a mountain. Its God lights were immense; its power could crush mountains and the ground into dust.

"Boom."

An earth-shaking sound suddenly reverberated from the bathing area.

In that ear-piercing explosion, the paving blue stones of the lake scattered here and there.

A tavern next to the hot water lake collapsed instantly. Big stone blocks massively fell, making many warriors run away while holding their heads and cursing loudly.

Man Gu's body in the air continued shaking. The big club slipped out of his hand, falling and directly striking a tavern which then collapsed shortly.

Shi Yan's hand got numb; his veins almost exploded, and his face was glowing red. He had to take three steps backward to be able to stabilize himself.

"Dangerous!" Shi Yan's heart shuddered. His face suddenly became cold like ice; his eyes shot out unlimited combating will. He leaped up and plunged down toward Man Gu in the lake like a falcon seizing its prey.

"Continue!" Man Gu was standing in the lake. As seeing Shi Yan plunging down, he suddenly laughed terrifyingly; the bones in his body crackled, producing constant explosive sounds.

Man Gu's tremendous aura impetuously came out, following the cracking sounds of the bones.

Chapter 307 - Aggressively Fighting

"Boop."

Man Gu's clothes were entirely torn down. The sheets of animal skins on his body turned into pieces, scattering all over the sky. A flow of wild, delirious, tremendous power suddenly projected from Man Gu's body.

The green veins on Man Gu's body looked like as if they were interweaving together, which were similar to some black streaks moving along in different directions on his body.

It also looked like a blind painter with a paintbrush in his hand drawing bold lines, creating some formation.

In just a few seconds, the vessels' positions inside Man Gu's entire body had changed.

After the green veins had emerged, they then transformed into a kind of pattern, which resembled a tattoo binding around his body. This tattoo was both arrogant and mighty like a Green Horned Savage Buffalo.

The Green Horned Savage Buffalo that surfaced on his skin brought people a feeling that his strength had tremendously been reinforced and was about to shoot out.

"The Power of the Barbarian God Veins!"

In the tavern, many warriors suddenly screamed out in shock.

The Power of the Barbarian God Veins was the Scared Level Martial Technique of the Uncultivated Barbarian Sect, which definitely shouldn't be underestimated. It was said that Man Gu was an anomalous innate genius. His vessels were naturally more exceptionally sturdy than ordinary people.

When he used the Power of the Barbarian God Veins, his vessels pounded as if there was some kind of the barbarian power continuously spreading out nonstop from his bones and vessels.

"Man Gu is known as the person with the God power that is ranked the first among the young generation in the Endless Sea. It isn't necessary for him to use any secret treasure; Man Gu only needs to rely on his God power of his own. Not to mention the warriors at the same realm, the Nirvana Realm warriors are unlikely to resist him."

"That's right. It has been said that Man Gu used to launch a strike that made a Nirvana Realm warrior explode and die. If a Nirvana Realm warrior wants to defeat him, he must use the support of his Sea of Consciousness and activate the oppressive soul to waste the profound Qi in Man Gu's body. That is how he can defeat Man Gu hopefully."

"That little rascal is screwed now. He dares to fight one-on-one with Man Gu. He doesn't care about being dead or alive."

...

A crowd of warriors screamed out in astonishment, didn't hold back but discuss the miraculous Martial Technique of the Uncultivated Barbarian Sect.

Many people were standing and watching beside the bathing area.

Man Gu's veins, which were prominently bulging, had created the Green Horned Savage Buffalo tattoos. His bones crackled like the sound of the explosive fireworks. Horrendous aura gradually came up.

"Launch!" A shout bringing along the power that was as strong as the landslide of an ice mountain reverberated from the bathing area, creating a huge wave.

Man Gu's two-meter-tall body solemnly stood in the lake like a Barbarian God, creating many ten-meter-tall waves. The aura around him was indescribably tremendous.

In the air, an imposing figure plunged down right in front of Man Gu as fast as the lightning. This person didn't choose to take actions from the air.

"Come here!" Man Gu's face displayed great arrogance. His chest muscles were like a chunk of cold steel. His hands constantly pounded on his chest as if he was insane.

Shi Yan knitted his eyebrows; his face was as cold as black ice. He gently took a deep breath.

Suddenly, in front of many people's eyes, his mighty body gradually shriveled and turned to be scraggy.

As soon as his body was bone dry, a flow of horrendous aura that dragged along different emotions of violence, despair, disgust, and murder suddenly rose up and blended with the steam in the bathing area, creating some kind of a peculiar white substance that was covering his entire body.

When watching, other people would have the feeling that Shi Yan's body was covered with a splendid silver armor that was full of evil aura.

His body's transformation was different from Man Gu's.

After Man Gu had become crazy, his body expanded, becoming bigger and more audacious.

Shi Yan, on the contrary, became mute. His imposing body had shriveled and dried up. The spiritual aura surged up bringing the extremely ferocious forces which could freeze other people's hearts.

"Never before has a single warrior in the same realm dared to carry out a full-frontal assault against me," Man Gu excitedly licked his lips as if he was a ferocious, bloodthirsty beast. "You are dangerous though. You haven't got injured after receiving one full-power strike of mine. No wonder why you are so ambitious like this."

Shi Yan's eyes were as cold as an icy saber. He dragged a faint smile out of the corner of his mouth, "Let's continue."

Man Gu roared, violently stomped on the ground. The blue stones on the bottom of the lake were broken into pieces under his trample.

Countless horrendous forces emitted from his feet.

With Man Gu as the center, in the range of fifty meters, the blue stone bottom of the lake was smashed into small pieces under his aggressive feet as if it was pounded by hundreds of big clubs.

Man Gu was still standing there motionlessly. The blue stones in the fifty-meter range surrounding had crumbled and scattered here and there.

The bluestone rubble which dragged along the turquoise water had created numerous water arrows that flew up in the air altogether.

While these water arrows were still flying in the air, Man Gu suddenly took actions.

Like a vast mountain that could walk, Man Gu mopped up towards Shi Yan. The ground was shaken wherever he had passed by. Inside the bathing area, the rumble reverberated nonstop.

Tens of thousands of tons of water, which were conducted by an unknown force, condensed and converged to Man Gu's body.

The water of the lake became viscous and then turned to be more solid, constantly plastered on Man Gu's body. His body seemed to be presently bigger. Before arriving at Shi Yan's place, these thousands of tons of water had made him much stronger.

Like a giant in the ancient times, Man Gu launched his iron fist which brought along numerous spectacularly splendid water drops. Inside of each of these water drops contained a force that was violent enough to crush an ordinary Earth Realm warrior's flesh and bones.

"Very strong."

"This Man Gu has the terrifying God power indeed. This tremendous force is created by the condensation and refinement of his body and the Profound Qi. Those tons of water not only are adhered altogether but also contain the power that can make an earth-shaking explosion. This Man Gu deserves to be the once-in-a-thousand-year genius of the Uncultivated Barbarian Sect."

"That guy hides the terrifying forces inside those water drops which can explode at any given time. He uses the flabbiness of the water drops to neutralize the rapidity of the forces, preventing them from instantly exploding. This Man Gu is absolutely not a blunt guy. Being able to do this has proved that he is not an idiot."

"That's right. This Man Gu is very dangerous. No wonder he wasn't defeated when fighting with a Nirvana warrior. He does have some potential."

Everyone opened their eyes widely, bewilderedly watching the scene in the lake. Their faces displayed an unimaginable sense of astonishment.

Many of people who were bathing in the lake had to run away without caring if they were wet or not. They hurriedly climbed to the terraces of the taverns and then watched the battle from there.

"The second combat capability in the Power Rankings deserves the praise from everyone."

Ye ZhangFeng was standing next to the window, quietly nodding his head. He then glanced at Lin Ya Qi and said with a big smile, "Jie, if you confront Man Gu without using any secret treasure, just only rely on your physical strength to fight, what do you think about the possibility of winning?"

Xia XinYan's beautiful eyes brightened, surprisingly looked at the girl beside her.

She didn't know the relation between Shi Yan and these two persons. As she had seen them sit at the same table with Shi Yan, she had assumed that Shi Yan and Ye ZhangFeng, Lin Ya Qi were friends. Therefore, she had secretly paid attention to them since she had entered this tavern.

Both Ye ZhangFeng and Lin Ya Qi had brought her a strange feeling. She could vaguely feel that they were emitting some kind of aura that could make other people's hearts vigorously pound.

She felt that Ye ZhangFeng and Lin Ya Qi were exceptionally outstanding, and their cultivation base wasn't low at all.

Right now, as she heard Ye ZhangFeng's question, she was startled inside and extremely astonished.

Man Gu was the high-class warrior who was ranked number 2 in the Power Rankings of the Endless Sea. It was said that nobody had the barbarian power that was as strong as his.

Although Ye ZhangFeng had witnessed the danger of Man Gu, he still raised that question. Would he perhaps feel that this beautiful girl was even mightier than Man Gu?

"The winning possibility is only five-five" Lin Ya Qi knitted her eyebrows, seriously thought for a while before speaking. "If merely relying on the physical strength to fight, it can only be a draw. But, if it were a mortal combat, the dead one would be him." The girl said with a confident face.

Xia XinYan was surprised. Her beautiful eyes flared up suspiciously as she didn't know if Lin Ya Qi was telling the truth or not.

"Uh." Ye ZhangFeng unexpectedly nodded as if it was obvious. "If it is mortal combat, the dead one will no doubt be that guy Man Gu. I have no second thoughts about this. But I also believe that if you take the risk, using only brute physical strength, your possibility to win is still higher."

Lin Ya Qi lifted her face up and angrily said, "It is obvious."

The astonishment was getting bigger in Xia XinYan's eyes.

"Boom."

Right at this moment, at the bathing area, a vortex appeared and swept along the water drops from the lake. This vortex sucked all of those water drops which contained the tremendous forces. Each water drop falling into the vortex had released an earth-shaking explosion.

The water in the lake splattered everywhere. None of the water drops that contained violent forces, which had been condensed by Man Gu, could touch Shi Yan's body because it was attracted by that vortex and was then dissolved.

While Man Gu was frothily snarling, at the lake below him, Shi Yan was lingeringly levitating just above the eye of the impending vortex when he abruptly leaped up and surfed the waves. The devilish misty smoke condensed on his body. He now looked like a dragon leaping out of the sea, dashing straight toward Man Gu.

Each of those two men condensed and created a huge water pillar, putting all of their forces into their own water pillars. The aura emitted from these water pillars was so powerful as if it could crush mountains and the ground into pieces. These two water pillars then fiercely collided with each other.

"Swoosh swoosh swoosh."

The collision of these two colossal water pillars darted out many water arrows here and there. Each of the water arrows contained a terrifying power that frightened people out of their wits.

These arrows which were like the thick water curtains shot out everywhere.

Many ear-splitting noises resounded. Twelve imposing taverns unexpectedly suffered an extremely destructive power all of a sudden.

In just an instant, five of them were pierced through by the water arrows and collapsed.

The remaining seven were shaking uncontrollably and were on the verge of collapsing. Luckily, a flock of warriors from the taverns united their forces in preventing them from perilously plunging down.

However, the fight between Shi Yan and Man Gu was still raging on.

Chapter 308 - Violent Attacks

Numerous waves of energy spread out from the two water pillars. After having radiated dazzling lights and shot out thousands of water arrows, they collapsed quickly. At this time, Shi Yan and Man Gu were standing, facing each other on the surface of the water. Their powerful punches collided, creating a shaking explosion like a terrible roll of thunder. Many beams of light that could dazzle and dizzy other people instantly covered both of them, making their figure ambiguous. In just a few seconds, it was unknown for how many times they had launched their strikes.

"Boom."

The waves tumbled, their bodies were like long lances that plunged at a mind blowing speed to the bathing area, creating a huge crater in the middle of the lake. Water flows crazily flooding in the crater was struck straight up to the sky by the horrendous powers inside the crater, turning into a water dragon with incomparable strength. The water flows kept pouring into the crater then transformed into rampageous water dragons soaring up to the sky. After the power gradually dissolved, they returned to drops of rain falling.

"Damn it! Can't see anything."

"Why are you burrowing into the ground? Sh*t, you've just pissed on my fireworks. I want to go down to see."

"If you want to die, go ahead. I assure that you will no longer exist in this world tomorrow."

On the terrace of the shaking tavern, many warriors were whining, wanted to go down there to have a better look, but they were afraid of the aftershocks from the powers of the two of them. Thus, they could only continue staying in the tavern and were complaining nonstop.

"Boom boom boom."

Inside that deep crater, which was like a well, Shi Yan and Man Gu were still hanging onto each other. The tremendous strength massively rolled out from the two of them. The violent strength, which could easily crush down ordinary warriors, flowed out through their limbs, colliding with each other and creating the explosive sound like rolling thunders. The inside of the earth was destroyed so terribly that deep ditches appeared everywhere.

Shi Yan activated the Petrification Martial Spirit which made his body as solid as stone or steel. The negative power was like surging tides, joining with his profound Qi and torrentially flowing everywhere inside his body. Every time a punch was launched, earth-shaking explosive sounds resounded from inside his arm's bones.

While he was freely discharging the power, his body, which had been tempered thousands of times before, suddenly released an indescribably wonderful feeling as if his body contained the unlimited strength which wasn't unlikely to burst out.

When the tremendous power of Man Gu struck on his body, a sound, which was like pieces of mental consciousness that collided with each other, arose. Shi Yan felt that his entire body was in pain as if all of his cells had been smashed at once.

However, during the pain, he also felt refreshed at the same time. A miraculous illusion had appeared. He had a feeling that his body was a magic weapon and Man Gu was a big hammer pounding on his body. It seemed that this was an indispensable step when forging the magic weapons. Man Gu's strength, which was enough to smash all of the insides of his body, also seemed to have some effects that helped his body go through a marvelous tempering process.

Under Man Gu's torrential attacks, inside his ironed body, the cells continuously divided and then combined, the blood vessels were overstretched too much that it would possibly break at any time. Even the bones inside his body also produced the 'shrieking' sound as if they were about to have some transformations.

Under the effect of the powerful punches, the fabulous essence of the Ice Cold Flame and the Earth Flame, which were hiding inside his body, were also miraculously blended into his bones and then became a part of the cells and blood vessels.

Under the violent attacks of Man Gu, Shi Yan felt abnormally comfortable.

However, Man Gu didn't like it. Being in the first rank of the Uncultivated Barbarian Sect's young generation, he had always been transmitted the most powerful strength of the Uncultivated Barbarian Sect since he was little. Since he was born, he already had the innate God power; his vessels and blood were also different from ordinary people. The current body provided him with an incomparably mighty strength which helped him cultivate many dangerous combat techniques of the Uncultivated Barbarian Sect to the extent that nobody could even have imagined.

So far, Man Gu had always assumed that he was the next generation's Barbarian God. At the same Realm, no one was able to fight face-to-face with him.

However, while fighting with Shi Yan today, he had realized that the legend of Barbarian God's Body, which had been spread throughout the history of the Uncultivated Barbarian Sect, was not the only truth. In this world, it turned out that without cultivating the magics of the Uncultivated Barbarian Sect nor help from the spiritual pellets of the Uncultivated Barbarian Sect, there was still someone who possessed a body that was as mighty as his.

The horrendous strength that he had strived to release was able to crush the beasts at the same level although the sturdiness of these beasts far surpassed the ones of the warriors at the same level.

He used to try it. He truly could smash the organs of the fifth-level beast 'Green Eyes Armored Lion' with only one strike, which led to its miserable death.

The body of the Green Eyes Armored Lion was very sturdy. Even the organs inside the body were covered by some layers of flesh which were as hard as the iron armors. Even if the strong Profound Qi of the ordinary warriors could get into its body, it was still tough to break those layers of flesh to harm the internal organs. But, with only one punch, accompanied by the crazily explosive strength of the punch, he had crumbled the organs of the Green Eyes Armored Lion, even the flesh layers, which were as hard as the iron armor that just had been broken.

The incomparable God power.

He has assumed that nobody in this world could be stronger than his Barbarian strength, or possess a body which was sturdier than his.

However, today, his torrential power that was like the strong wind and the big storm hadn't been able to smash Shi Yan's system after having swept all over his body. He even felt that he was fighting with a thousand-year-stone. His punch seemed to strike on a rare lava rock instead of a living body.

"Boom boom boom boom."

An explosive sound that could even remove mountains came up from the huge deep hole. After that, water dragons undulatingly flew up to the sky one by one amid the splendid water shower, dazzling other people's eyes.

Many vibrating waves suddenly spread out from the middle of the bathing area. Wherever the vibrating waves diffused, the ground instantly split open.

Those taverns, which had been shaken and almost collapsed, finally violently shook as they couldn't stand the consecutive shockwaves anymore. Being surrounded with many screams, many warriors hurriedly leaped up and flew out. Before those warriors could get out completely, the remaining taverns eventually collapsed at the same time as they had to suffer too many of consecutive vibrations.

Xia XinYan, together with Ye ZhangFeng and Lin Ya Qi, and other warriors hastily moved away from the bathing area, running towards the trading area in the distance. The buildings in the trading area were made of the Blazing Yang Stones, which could only be found on the Sun Island. Moreover, each building was reinforced by a special formation.

Therefore, all vibrations reaching the trading area would be instantly suppressed. The trading area was still safe. Not long after that, many warriors who were as wet as a drowned rat shifted to the trading area to continue watching the fight. Three people, Xia XinYan, Ye ZhangFeng, and Lin Ya Qi were also among those people. The three of them didn't seem to worry for Shi Yan. Xia XinYan's face was still calm; Ye ZhangFeng and Lin Ya Qi even showed their excitement, discussing together nonstop on the way.

The peculiar vibrations inside the earth were getting more and more violent to the extent that the elders who were secluding for cultivation on the Sacred Light Mountain of the Sun Island were also alerted. In front of the caves on the mountain flank of the Sun Island, some figures that emitted heating aura quietly appeared. They were standing under the shades of the ancient trees in front of the caves, coldly looking down.

A ray of God light zoomed over.

The Hierarch in power of the Three Gods Sect, Tang YuanNan, silently appeared on the mountain flank. He stood underneath the shade of a luxuriant juniper tree, waving at those who were standing in front of the caves. As soon as those elders saw him, they immediately leaped up, flew over and stood next to him.

Waiting until those elders stood neatly, Tang YuanNan revealed a smile then pointed toward the clamorous noise down there and said, "The one who is fighting with Man Gu is Shi Yan."

Some of the elders with doleful eyes but robust spirits displayed astonishment after hearing it. One of them slightly bent down and said with a low voice, "Are you sure that he is the successor of the Star God?"

Tang YuanNan was still somber. He said seriously, "Yes. I am sure."

The elders' expressions were all shaken. When looking down there, they were even more attentive as if they were thinking of something for the future of the Three Gods Sect.

"According to the Three Gods Sect's rules, once he successfully enters the Nirvana Realm, he can also become the Star God of the next generation." Tang YuanNan's face was heavy. He lowered his voice, "If five out of nine of the Three Gods Sect's elders in power agree, he will become the new Star God and immediately receive the newfound noble position and status in the Gods Sect. You need to think carefully. I believe he is very close to the Nirvana Realm..."

The countenance of the elders slightly changed after hearing those words.

"Once the Star God's identity is confirmed, the benefits of the Three Gods Sect should also be altered. Therefore, you will have to concede some of your current benefits. Tang YuanNan meaningfully looked at the elders and then continued, "I know you will feel that it is difficult. Obtaining something is easier that giving it up. But, I hope that you can sacrifice and make concessions for the sake of the Three Gods Sect. Even I myself will concede a part of my benefits to support the new Star God."

The elders of the Three Gods Sect kept silent without uttering a word.

"Hierarch, we have heard that he is a member of the Yang family?" One of the elders suddenly spoke up.

Tang YuanNan secretly released a sigh. He reluctantly nodded, "That's not wrong. Yang Tian Emperor has assigned Jiao Han Yi, one of the three Asura Kings to pick him up. That has proved how much the Yang family respects him. While Yang Tian Emperor hasn't returned yet, if we take this chance, tightly binding him with the Gods Sect, isn't it a good thing for the Gods Sect?"

"What if he had the benefits of the Three Gods Sect, but his heart was for the Yang family?"

"The Gods Sect has its own rules." Tang YuanNang hesitated for a while before replying.

The elders' faces slightly changed. They then quietly nodded. After that, without asking further, they shifted their eyes towards the bathing area down there. They wanted to see if that little rascal was qualified enough to make them willingly concede their current benefits or not. Opportunity should only be obtained by one's real ability.

Chapter 309 - You Understand My Ass!

At the foot of the Sacred Light Mountain.

The sea water was ultramarine. The afterglow was of a mesmerizingly blazing red hue. Clouds were pink and the sea was blue. Many groups of clouds were floating around. The scene here was originally peaceful and relaxing. However, the two aggressive young men who were fighting had already destroyed this beautiful scene.

At this time, in the oval-shaped bathing area, the rubble of stones was scattering everywhere in the air. The ground had been indented, forming many deep craters. After an earth-piercing explosive sound, the ground was split open, creating a bottomless crater.

The sea water immediately flooded into that crater which was like a thousand-of-zhang-deep abyss. The two tremendous conflicting powers had made the sea water rise as if it wanted to drown both the sky and the earth.

Inside the bathing area, the wreckages of the taverns were littered everywhere; many pots and pans were floating on the water. Some food was also bobbing up and down on the water.

The natural bathing area had become a garbage dump and didn't retain any of its former elegance. Everything had been caused by the two people who were fighting inside that gaping crater.

"Boom."

A sound like the rolling thunders came up from inside the crater. The entire bathing area was vibrating.

Inside that crater, countless energetic seals condensed altogether in the middle of the dazzling lights.

Seven big energetic seals merged into one, which was like a giant hand of an angel bringing along the earth-destructive aura, dashing toward Man Gu.

Man Gu was struck out of the crater. In the middle of the splattering shower, Man Gu's face was pale, and the muscles on his sturdy body was convulsing nonstop.

His horrendous strength was still there, but it seemed that Man Gu wasn't able to use his strength anymore. Under the attack of the energetic seals, Man Gu was then struck up to hundreds of zhang and continued getting slammed and pinned by a huge flow of water.

The Man Gu's buffalo-like body was now like a small boat in the torrent which was clearly about to capsize. In the middle of the full force of the barraging water, his strength seemed to be in the state of 'the spirit is willing but the flesh is weak.'

The talented seed of the Uncultivated Barbarian Sect, the young man who was ranked at number two in the Power Rankings, at this moment, seemed to... lose.

Many people in the trading area didn't believe in their own eyes. In the middle of the buzzing discussions, from a corner where nobody had paid attention to, a graceful shout suddenly came up, "Enough."

Cao Zhi Lan, who had disappeared for long, abruptly emerged. Her body was covered with a layer of splendid lights as she was walking on the surface of the water, approaching Man Gu.

No one knew that she had been hiding in the lake all that time. When the two men had been fighting, as she had disappeared without a trace, people had thought that she had soon left already. It was unexpected that when the fight was coming to an end, she had now reappeared all of a sudden.

It seemed that she had been coldly watching the violent fight between the two men in the dark and laughing to herself. Perhaps the fact that being bluntly refused by Shi Yan had irritated her so much that she, from the beginning until now, hadn't shown up to prevent the fight nor asked Man Gu to stop.

Many people knew that Man Gu of the Uncultivated Barbarian Sect seemed to have listened only to her. However, why she hadn't stopped him, was unknown.

It was unknown either she wanted to ridicule Shi Yan or to let Man Gu know how dangerous Shi Yan was that she had just quietly been hiding during that time.

Nobody knew her real intentions.

However, at this critical point of time, she finally showed up.

As soon as she appeared, she slenderly leaped up like a phoenix. The brilliant lights were moving around, covering her entire body.

Cao Zhi Lan's body, which was like a rainbow, moved toward Man Gu. After that, when she lifted her jade-like hand up, magnificent lights in the sky suddenly intertwined, forming a silver net which tied up Man Gu just in a blink. One of her hands held the silver net while her other hand, relying on the torrent, pulled Man Gu up and then landed on the ground.

"Let go of me. I want to kill him." Being tied up inside the silver net, Man Gu was struggling and angrily screaming. A murderous aura suddenly struck people's faces.

At this time, it seemed that Man Gu's strength was still as violent as before. Thus, he still wanted to risk his life in fighting Shi Yan, knocking Shi Yan out right in front of Cao Zhi Lan.

"You should calm down." Cao Zhi Lan knitted her eyebrows and then threw him a jade vase. "Take the pellet inside the vase quickly. Your body is severely injured. You don't have the Immortal Martial Spirit as he does. If you continue to fight, you will definitely die."

"I don't care." Man Gu screamed out loud; his face was vivid-red. "I certainly can kill him. Let me go! I want to kill him."

Man Gu's scream was still powerful as usual. But, when the people heard it, it somehow expressed his helplessness...

"Stupid buffalo!" Cao Zhi Lan cursed him under her breath before using her jade-like hand to pat on the back of Man Gu's head strongly. A dark blue octopus suddenly appeared on the back of his head. Its tentacles quickly held Man Gu's head, and black streams of power ran out from those tentacles, absorbing into Man Gu's brain.

The haughtiness in Man Gu's eyes gradually vanished. He felt that his eyelids became so heavy that he couldn't open his eyes anymore. When he closed his eyes, his body finally relaxed, and his stiffened muscles loosened.

Streams of red blood gradually gushed out from the muscles on his body. After a short while, Man Gu's body was full of blood.

It turned out that Man Gu's body had soon torn down; however, when the muscles had stiffened, those injuries had been suppressed, even a drop of blood couldn't have spewed out because his skin and flesh were too solid. However, at this moment, when his spirit had relaxed, and the muscles on his body were no longer tense, those injuries then surfaced.

Cao Zhi Lan's eyes flared up a beam of remorse; she secretly released a sigh. After that, she quickly sat down, taking out many vases and jars then applied the medicinal powder on Man Gu's body.

In front of many people, Shi Yan's blunt refusal had made an arrogant person like her too resentful.

Therefore, a person who was always calm like her hadn't been able to be discerning anymore. Having seen Man Gu challenge Shi Yan in combat, she hadn't stopped him as she had thought that Man Gu would have taught Shi Yan a lesson.

She obviously knew the depth of Shi Yan's abilities, but as being from the Tuta Sea, she also clearly knew how unpredictable Man Gu's innate God power was.

In the Tuta Sea, Man Gu had soon performed the great strength that ordinary people could hardly believe. She understood Man Gu's power. Once Man Gu went crazy, he would be able to release the strength which was enough to destroy a Nirvana Realm warrior.

That was why she had felt that Man Gu would have had defeated Shi Yan, helping her save her reputation in front of the other warriors of the Endless Sea. Regretfully, she had underestimated Shi Yan.

"Damn it!" Cao Zhi Lan gritted her teeth while checking on Man Gu's wounds and quietly observing the bathing area.

"Swoosh."

The water arrows continuously flew up to the sky. In the shower of the water arrows, Shi Yan's face was pale; his skin and flesh had been torn apart. He looked even more miserable than Man Gu.

However, his eyes still expressed the same coldness as before.

The God light remained in his eyes proved that he still had a lot of energy. Although his appearance looked miserable, those were just external wounds. He was definitely able to engage in another fight if needed.

With just a quick look, everyone was clear that Man Gu had lost. Man Gu was ranked second on the Power Rankings, yet was defeated by an unknown little rascal. Until now, the majority of people still didn't know Shi Yan's real identity.

"Who is he after all?"

"Really strong. Man Gu is ranked second on the Power Rankings, yet has been defeated. Would he perhaps be more dangerous than Zhong Li Dun of the Martial Holy Palace?"

"Impossible. Zhong Li Dun has already broken through the Nirvana Realm for a long time and is about to reach the Second Sky of the Nirvana Realm. In this world, only the ancient and mystical place like the Martial Holy Palace can temper that kind of monster."

"That's right. The gap between their Realms is too big, so he obviously couldn't defeat Zhong Li Dun."

"What if he also breaks through the Nirvana Realm?"

"Ah, if so, it's hard to say."

"Right."

"..."

Everyone in the trading area was boisterously discussing, secretly comparing Shi Yan with the person who was the number one on the Power Rankings, Zhong Li Dun. For them, as having just defeated Man Gu, Shi Yan had become the new most shining star on the Power Rankings. However, they still didn't know who Shi Yan was.

"Thud."

Shi Yan was like a big bird stomping on the water and then constantly leaping up. In just a short moment, he was already on the ground and walked towards Cao Zhi Lan.

The wounds on Shi Yan's body had stopped bleeding, and in front of numerous eyes of other people, those wounds started healing with a visible speed.

"Immortal Martial Spirit!"

"Monster of the Yang family!"

"My gosh, he is the monster of the Yang family. No wonder ..."

"I have told you, only the monster of the Yang family has the peculiar fighting strength like that."

Everyone clamored and displayed the excitement on their faces. Some of them also started to be frightened and worried for their forces back home.

Wasn't it that the Yang family had been expelled from the Endless Sea?

Many people were suspicious as well as astonished. They didn't know where Shi Yan came from after all. But, anyway, this fight had startled everyone. The news of the Yang family's return to the Endless Sea was immediately spread throughout the entire island.

"What are you coming here for?" Cao Zhi Lan's charming face suddenly paled. As she knew that Shi Yan was very cruel, she couldn't help but shield Man Gu who was unconscious and then lowered her voice begging, "Shi Yan, you and he are not enemies nor have any prior resentments. Please be merciful."

Shi Yan's eyes were still frigid; his face was as cold as ice. He looked at Cao Zhi Lan and said, "I come here because of you, not Man Gu."

"Because of me?" Cao Zhi Lan was astonished; her beautiful eyes beamed out a look of surprise.

"You have known that XinYan is here, yet still played tricks in the lake. If I am not consistent, I would have gotten trapped." Shi Yan knitted his eyebrows then coldly smiled, "I don't like to be fooled around with. I warn you, if this happens again, don't blame me for not having mercy."

"You intentionally fought with Man Gu because you want people to pay attention to you through Man Gu's defeat. Haven't you got what you want?" Cao Zhi Lan was not frightened, she still gently smiled and then lowered her voice, "Two of us are the same kind of person. You are not better than me. To achieve your purpose, you disregard any tricks. It is an outstanding personality to obtain our goals. Shi Yan, that woman is too honest, she isn't suitable for you."

"So, you are suitable for me?" Shi Yan mocked.

"Of course, I can help you attain your goals."

"Goals?" Shi Yan shook his head. "Understand? My ass."

After finishing, he immediately turned his head around, ignoring Cao Zhi Lan and walked straight toward Xia XinYan. His frigid look gradually disappeared.

Chapter 310 - Not the One Who is Content with Staying in Ponds

On the Sacred Light Mountain's flank.

Tang YuanNan and the elders of the Three Gods Sect were all standing together on a branch of a small juniper tree. Their bodies swayed gently in the breeze as if they were weightless.

The faces of the Three Gods Sect's elders slightly expressed their astonishment. Watching Si Yan walking toward Xia XinYan down there, they were full of suspicions. They mumbled, "Although the Immortal Martial Spirit of the Yang family is very powerful, it only has the recovering effect at the beginning, not the effect of increasing body's strength." One of the elders with a scarred face was floundered for a while and said. "As what I have known, the Immortal Martial Spirit has to reach to the last phase to become intimidating. Every time it breaks through one level, the Immortal Martial Spirit's strength enhances dozens of times. However, before that, its efficiency is to merely increase the recovery ability of flesh and the flexibility of tendons and bones."

Other elders also nodded.

"The Ancient Barbarian Body of Man Gu is different. The luridness of Man Gu is displayed through his body strength. Even if he doesn't use the Profound Qi, the strength of the 'Ancient Barbarian Body' can still be compared with a full-power strike of a normal Earth Realm warrior. If Man Gu releases all of his strength, he will be able to defeat a Nirvana Realm. In a face-to-face combat like this, I don't know how he could lose."

That elder mused for a while before continuing, "These two men didn't use any secret treasures. Man Gu having been defeated is truly unreasonable."

Tang YuanNan's face was still unchanged. He said, "There are some secrets in this little rascal's body indeed. I have noticed that the power in his body is extremely chaotic. It seems that several different strengths were coexisting within him."

"Hierarch, this little rascal is not the one who is content with staying in ponds." After that elder had thought for a while, he nodded, admitting Shi Yan's ability.

Everyone seemed to agree.

Tang YuanNan burst out laughing. He said, "He still doesn't know how to use the Star Martial Spirit."

Everyone's eyes brightened.

"Inside the Martial Spirit that the Star God has transmitted, there is his spiritual mark. Once Shi Yan knows how to activate the secret technique from me, it will ..." Tang YuanNan didn't say further.

The Three Gods Sect's elders were all shaken with fear. Their faces became strange.

"This matter, wait until we go the Moon Island to organize the Sect conference, then we will decide whether or not he can become the new Star God." Tang YuanNan finally spoke up after musing for a while.

Everyone nodded with confused faces.

... ... ... ... ...

At a hidden corner of the trading area, LinDa's clothes were soaking wet; her hair fell on her cheeks; her dazed eyes were looking at that sturdy figure over there.

Beside her, the eyes of a female follower of the Three Gods Sect also brightened up with excitement.

"LinDa, do you actually know him? That's cool." This girl's name was Jiang Li. Her small face had already turned red, and her hands tightly clenched while she looked very nervous. She urged LinDa, "Go, go there to meet him."

LinDa's subtle body suddenly shivered; a beam of bitterness was revealed from the corner of her mouth. She slightly shook her head, "No."

"Why?" Jiang Li didn't understand; she tightened her fists and resentfully said, "As you know him, you have to take the chance. I can't have this chance though I want it so much. LinDa, let me tell you, this guy will be an important person in the future. If you don't grab this chance to tie him up now, you won't have any other chances later."

"I am still so far behind him," LinDa whined; her face looked disappointed. She said, "Only beautiful and powerful women like Cao Zhi Lan or Xia XinYan deserves him. I don't deserve ..."

"It makes sense." Jiang Li kept silent. She thought for a while before nodding. She gloomily said, "This guy is too dangerous. Sigh, being with a person like that is not easy either. But, if it were me, as long as I could be with him, I would have been willing to do anything, even to be his concubine. I am just afraid he won't lay his eyes on me."

While talking, Jiang Li took out a bronze mirror then started counting the pimples on her face. After a while, she put her temper aside and whiningly said, "Alright, I should stop thinking about it."

LinDa was bewildered looking at the sturdy figure that was attracting thousands of eyes. As she didn't have enough courage to walk over, she could only stand at the dark corner, quietly watching Shi Yan's vigorous body that seemingly had the God lights wrapping around it.

... ... ...

In the bathing area, Cao Zhi Lan's eyes became strange. While curling up her lips, she was silently watching Shi Yan's back, seeing him revealing a smile and walking toward Xia XinYan.

"Didn't sell himself cheap just for some interests nor accepted me for the Cao family's forces. Shi Yan, I have started to like you." Cao Zhi Lan mumbled to herself. Then, her full lips slightly shivered, revealed a mesmerizing smile on her face.

It seemed that she just had a true feeling for Shi Yan as of now. Her behaviors before were merely the rationale trading. She had never been moved except for seeing Shi Yan as her ally in the future. She had wanted to make use of the marriage to bind him without any romantic attachments.

However, when Shi Yan had coldly rejected her in front of numerous people, his heartless words were like miraculous seeds that were planted in her heart, bringing out a strange vibration.

"It seems like I should treat you more honestly."

Cao Zhi Lan revealed a beautiful smile; her eyes were full of confidence.

In front of other people, her jade-like hands constantly patted Man Gu's body, and then she poured out all the medicinal powder inside dozens of vases and jars on his body.

Several sturdy men with leather cloths wrapping around their body suddenly appeared, standing in one line behind Man Gu.

"Wait until he wakes up, then give him the medicine in this jade vase." Cao Zhi Lan stood up, sluggishly straightened her back. The dazzling lights around her body gradually vanished, exposing a blue dress that embraced the mesmerizing curves of her body. When she slothfully stretched out her shoulders, the curve exposing at her bosom agitated everyone.

The big warriors of the Uncultivated Barbarian Sect suddenly gasped with reddened faces, but they didn't dare to have any wicked thoughts.

Being one of the forces in the Tuta Sea, they knew how powerful the Cao family was, and even knew more clearly about the status of this beautiful woman in the Cao's family. Although the Uncultivated Barbarian Sect's power was mighty, they still had to submit if confronting the Cao family. People outside of the Tuta Sea knew that the Cao family was very dangerous, but they still didn't know the Cao family's real ability which was even more terrifying than what they could ever imagine.

These warriors of the Tuta Sea knew it very well. Even though Man Gu had been injured because of her, they didn't dare to show any intentions of vengeance.

"Take good care of Man Gu. He just got external injuries. After using my medicines, with his body, he will recover after seven days." Cao Zhi Lan instructed them as if the people of the Uncultivated Barbarian Sect were her subordinates. Only after that, she moved her charming body and left.

Those followers of the Uncultivated Barbarian Sect nodded constantly, didn't seem to be angry at Cao Zhi Lan when she treated them like the Cao family's servants.

... ... ...

"Hahaha, I didn't expect that you are that dangerous."

Ye ZhangFeng raised his cup of wine and took a sip. He revealed an immodest smile on his face. He then rushed towards Shi Yan who was approaching and said, "I have been looking after your woman very carefully. She is still whole without any damages. You don't need to thank me though. Hahaha."

Xia XinYan blushed and embarrassedly stared at him.

Ye ZhangFeng wasn't scared. He continued speaking and laughing, "No need to be ashamed. When Miss Cao stole your man, weren't you very proactive? When everything has been fine again, are you now going to reject it? Hahaha, you women are all deceitful. I know it."

Lin Ya Qi scolded him, "Can you shut your stinky mouth for a while? It is very hard for them to see each other. When they are about to say something that is nauseously sweet and sentimental, you bastards had to have jumped in and destroyed the mood. You tell me, how can I enjoy the play?"

"Enjoy the play?" Ye ZhangFeng harrumphed, "Jie, you better watch this kind of things less. You are still young. I am afraid that you couldn't help but feel burning inside. Then, Master would blame me as well. I wouldn't be able to take it. Jie, you'd be better not to dream about this. I know that you have been waiting for pure love. But, with your personality that makes other people vomit blood, you can only attract the beasts."

"Little Bai, it has been long since we haven't fought with each other." Lin Ya Qi's eyes were half closed forming a moon shape which implied many meanings.

Ye ZhangFeng's face slightly changed. He raised his head looking toward the sky and then mumbled to himself, "Oh, it is getting dark. The stars are going to rise. It's time to find a place to rest."

Lin Ya Qi coldly looked at him. She harrumphed and then shifted her attention to Shi Yan and Xia XinYan. Her face was full of expectation.

"Let's go." After approaching, Shi Yan revealed a smile and said to Xia XinYan, "I want to see your grandfather. I have something to tell him."

Xia XinYan smiled and nodded, "Ok."

After speaking, she went straight outside without paying attention to the other people that were surrounding her.

Lin Ya Qi's face was now flooded with disappointment. She dispiritedly said, "Not like that ..."

"Don't tell me you want to see the hot scene?" Ye ZhangFeng giggled. Before Lin Ya Qi got irritated, he hurriedly said, "Jie, you are free anyway, let's follow them to see."

"Uh, I will follow you." Lin Ya Qi nodded then hastily urged, "Let's go. Quick!"

"Of course, of course!" Ye ZhangFeng forced a smile. He then hurriedly ran after Shi Yan and shouted, "Good brother, wait for me."

... ... ...

At a corner of the trading area.

Gu Ling Lung gritted her white teeth. Her body slightly trembled; her eyes were as if they wanted to projected flames, and her mouth kept cursing Shi Yan nonstop, "Shi Yan, you are such a bastard. You will not die decently. I curse you to be slashed into hundreds of pieces and that your soul will scatter and perish."

She both cursed and wiped away the stains on her body. Her entire body was soaking wet, exposing beautiful curves. However, with her wet clothes tightly stuck to her body, as well as being greasy, she looked a little sluttish.

Before the tavern had collapsed, as she had been passionately waving her hands to support Man Gu, she had jumped out of the tavern a little bit late. She had been swept along with the tavern, falling right on the redundant food floating on the water. That was why she had this appearance.

Of course, she blamed all the responsibility on Shi Yan. When she had witnessed Shi Yan's strength by her own eyes, she had been so angry that her entire body had trembled.

"Stop screaming. He has left already."

Qu Yan Qing, on the contrary, was clean. Her eyes showed the confusion, watching Shi Yan leaving. Then, she suddenly remembered something, turning her head around looking at the group of young men who had stood up for her from before. Seeing their miserable appearances, their ruffled hair, and then comparing them with Shi Yan's cold face, she felt disheartened.

Although Shi Yan was a bastard, he was much stronger than those soft eggs.

Qu Yan Qing thought to herself. Her eyes then flared up a strange light. It was unknown what she had just figured out.
