"This title is ant for the dead," Elder Zhou roared. "I will make you a real Reputation Disciple!" In truth, he had no real intent to kill Yan Xiaobao. He just wanted to teach him a very tough lesson. To scare him, he waved his hand again, sending another gust of wind, causing a whirlwind to surge around Yan Xiaobao.
When Yan Xiaobao heard Elder Zhou's words and then saw the vortex appear, he scread louder. He poured all the spiritual power he could muster into the Golden Crow Sword. Yan Xiaobao burst from the vortex, surrounded by golden light, shooting towards the midpoint between Xiangyun Peak and Daosen Mountain. Only then did the light begin to fade.
As he rushed forward, screaming, silver light flickered around him. He knew full well that Li Qinghou was not in the sect at this mont, and the only person who could save him was his brother, the Sect Leader, which is why he was heading to Daosai Mountain.
Mrs. Zhou was shocked that Yan Xiaobao had managed to evade his attacks multiple tis, now certain it was one of the reasons he survived being hunted by the Luochen Clan.
However, with so many people watching, it left Elder Zhou with a loss of face, rely fuelling his anger. Releasing his cultivation base, he shot at Bai Xiaochun again.
"Brother Sect Leader, save !" Yan Xiaobao howled at the top of his lungs. He whistled through the air at top speed, continuing to dodge Zhou Laosan, heading towards Daosai Mountain. His unbelievable agility made him extrely slippery.
Of course, if Elder Zhou truly unleashed all his divine abilities and techniques from his cultivation base, he might have been able to knock Bai Xiaochun down. However, all he wanted was to teach him a lesson. If he started using magical techniques without perfect control of their power, he was very likely to deliver a fatal strike.
But at this mont, he couldn't hit Yan Xiaobao at all, yet Yan Xiaobao was screaming miserably, making Elder Zhou even angrier. He quickly made a spell gesture with his right hand, forming black clouds in the sky above. As lightning suddenly struck towards Yan Xiaobao, thunder crashed.
Yan Xiaobao's eyes were as round as saucers. The terrifying power he felt in the lightning made his mind sowhat blank. Eyes bloodshot, he made a spell gesture with both hands then pointed. Instantly, a violet balloon appeared above his head, shooting towards the lightning.
Elder Zhou was surprised. He started out just trying to scare Yan Xiaobao, and although the lightning seed like an attack, he aid it beside Yan Xiaobao rather than at him. But now, Yan Xiaobao was actually countering it, causing Elder Zhou to suddenly try to control the lightning. Unfortunately, he couldn't stop all of it.
Violet Qi from Yan Xiaobao spun up to et the lightning, as it did, the image of a cauldron appeared. When it collided with the lightning, a massive rumble sounded, shaking everything in the area. The violet Qi dispersed, and as for the lightning, it darkened about halfway before striking the ground.
Yan Xiaobao's face was pale, and he let out another mournful scream.
"Save , Brother! Save , Master! Oh, my spirit of ten thousand armies will save !"
Elder Zhou stopped in mid-air, watching Yan Xiaobao in shock. Just now, he had managed to reduce the power of the thunder and lightning by about half, yet even the remaining bit should have been enough to severely injure any Qi Condensation cultivator. However, besides making Yan Xiaobao's face pale and his Qi and blood chaotic, it did barely anything.
"That was... Violet Qi Cauldron summoning," Elder Zhou muttered to himself. "Du Lingfei and Hou Yunfei both said Yan Xiaobao had gained enlightennt of the Purple Qilin summoning, but this power exceeds the seventh level of Qi Condensation. The combat power this kid releases with this technique is incredible!"
A strange light flashed in Elder Zhou's eyes. Now realizing Yan Xiaobao was of such caliber, so of his anger was eased. Furthermore, Yan Xiaobao's screaming left him uncertain whether to laugh or cry. He snorted coldly, pursued once more.
"I don't care if Phoenix is at fault. Yan Xiaobao is the main reason. This kid is stubborn and mischievous; I need to seize the chance to scare him into restraint." A mont ago, the Foundation Establishnt cultivators from the three mountain peaks had been watching, smiling, acknowledging that Elder Zhou rely intended to scare Yan Xiaobao. But then Yan Xiaobao suddenly countered the lightning, their expressions flickered. Many were about to intervene, but then they realized the lightning wouldn't harm him at all.
Strange lights appeared in their eyes.
"This kid is extraordinary!"
"No wonder the Luochen Clan couldn't hunt and kill him! He has so very unique abilities!"
"Our young scion might be on the sa level as Shangguan Tianyou. He's already clearly surpassed Lu Tianlei and Zhou Xinqi!"
As they watched and inwardly nodded, Sect Leader Zheng Yuandong stood atop Daosai Mountain, eyes alight with a strange expression. Even with Yan Xiaobao screaming at the top of his lungs, Zheng Yuandong observed everything with divine sense.
He was shocked by what Yan Xiaobao was doing. He didn't imdiately intervene but waited, hoping to see Yan Xiaobao fully exert his potential. Eventually, he began to nod in admiration. Finally, he flashed into motion, appearing directly in front of the frantically escaping Yan Xiaobao.
As soon as Yan Xiaobao saw Zheng Yuandong, he cried out, "Dear elder brother, Elder Zhou is trying to kill ! My poor little life can't go on!!" Even as those words left his mouth, he followed behind Zheng Yuandong to hide.
Zheng Yuandong coughed at Yan Xiaobao's pitiful appearance. He smiled as he looked up at the approaching Elder Zhou, who was glaring intensely at Yan Xiaobao. After a mont, Elder Zhou stopped in front of him, where he clasped his hands in greeting.
The two were cunning old foxes; as soon as their eyes t, they both knew what the other was thinking. They were both aware that Yan Xiaobao's existence ant the sect had another fearso talent in its ranks. This was far more important than the Phoenix's trivial matter.
If Li Qinghou were in the sect, things would be easier to control. But with his departure, no one in the sect could truly control Bai Xiaochun. This was especially true considering his recent success, and that he was a Reputation Disciple and the younger brother of the Sect Leader.
Zheng Yuandong was quite sure that if he attempted to punish Bai Xiaochun, Yan Xiaobao would simply go cry and complain to his master's portrait.
"Sect Leader," Elder Zhou said, "please disregard this matter and imdiately hand Yan Xiaobao over to !" Then, Elder Zhou glared at Yan Xiaobao cruelly, smiling wickedly.
Yan Xiaobao's scalp imdiately went numb, and he began to explain, "Your bird—"
Elder Zhou's face started to turn green upon hearing the word "bird." Yan Xiaobao imdiately bit his lip, turning a pleading gaze to Zheng Yuandong.
"Brother," he said, "I've shed my blood for the sect, I've provided excellent service..."
Zheng Yuandong's face twitched slightly, and he gave a dry cough.
"Elder Zhou," he said, "let's leave this matter alone. Xiao Chun may be a bit mischievous and naughty, but he's a good person. How about this: if such a thing happens again in the future, I won't intervene, and you can handle it in any way you see fit."
Mr. Zhou looked very tired but ultimately nodded reluctantly. Then he left, glaring back at Yan Xiaobao once more.
Yan Xiaobao took a deep breath, slowly stood up. He looked a little doubtful; he was a clever person, and the result seed sudden. It seed like sothing... However, he wasn't completely sure what it all ant, so he looked at the Sect Leader.
Zheng Yuandong looked back at him. "Those Phoenixes were raised by Elder Zhou's Daoist partner," he said coldly. "In the process of saving Elder Zhou, Daoist partner once engaged in a battle outside the sect. Elder Zhou barely survived himself. The pain of losing his Daoist partner damaged his psyche, and he almost went insane.
"Most people think he is just obsessed with plants and vegetation. What they don't know is, without this obsession, he can't suppress the madness within. He uses this obsession to avoid insanity.
"In the future, do not provoke him. If he truly gets angry, I might not be able to save you in ti."
