Nine Dragons Saint Ancestor

Whew...

An elderly figure swiftly flew over from above the lake, barely managing to turn in mid-air to avoid the awkwardness of falling directly onto the shore of Yanji Lake. However, Zhao Huaixian’s face had already turned livid.

Feeling the intense pain emanating from his right wrist, Zhao Huaixian’s heart filled with extreme dread toward the physical strength of that plainly dressed youth. It was truly unmatched in his eyes.

Zhao Huaixian had originally believed that his Late Stage of Earth Bending Realm cultivation would absolutely crush Yun Xiao, but he never expected that with just one move, he would be injured by a casual strike from that youth, making him feel as though he might spit out old blood.

Therefore, Zhao Huaixian could infer that when it came to pure physical strength, he was no match for that plainly dressed youth; there was simply no comparison.

While Zhao Huaixian was lost in grim thoughts, the other onlooking cultivators were already stunned by this outcome. At that moment, they finally sensed Yun Xiao’s true cultivation level.

”Middle Stage of Earth Bending Realm...”

Zhang Daohe’s face was so gloomy it seemed like water might drip from it, entirely unable to accept this reality. One must know that when they first saw Yun Xiao by Yanji Lake, he was only at the Half-step Earth Realm level.

Who could have known that after entering Yanji Lake for less than two months, the youth would breakthrough consecutively? Not only breaking through the major barrier of the Earth Bending Realm but now directly to the Middle Stage of the Earth Bending Realm.

Zhang Daohe had witnessed Yun Xiao’s combat power and originally thought that if the kid was only at the Early Stage of Earth Bending Realm, Wuyan Palace alone could probably take him down. Moreover, they had the help of two Late Stage Earth Bending experts, Yu Kuzhan and Zhao Huaixian.

But who knew that Yun Xiao had actually broken through to the Middle Stage of Earth Bending Realm once again. Zhang Daohe, confident even at the Late Stage of Earth Bending Realm, realized that it would not be easy to deal with that kid in a one-on-one fight.

Didn’t you see that Zhao Huaixian, also at the Late Stage of Earth Bending Realm, had his wrist bone broken by a casual wave of Yun Xiao’s hand? Just that one move made Zhang Daohe make some new plans in his heart.

Whoosh!

Amidst the dumbfounded crowd, the youth on the lake suddenly grew a pair of gigantic Thunder Light Wings from his back. With a gentle flap, he soared to the shore, igniting the interest of many.

”Flying Meridian Techniques!”

Even the likes of Jia Tianshu of Shenxiao Sect and Wu Tong from Firewood Valley were watching the wings that had been retracted into Yun Xiao’s body with eager eyes. This was an ability they longed for.

Unfortunately, cultivators who haven’t reached the Heavenly Rank Third Realm cannot fly off the ground, and the legendary Flying Meridian Techniques have been lost for ages. No one has thought of soaring through the skies below the Heavenly Rank Third Realm for countless years.

Yet that youth named Yun Xiao, rumored to be from Hidden Dragon Continent, possessed a pair of Flying Thunder Wings. This was truly enviable, making others wish they could seize this Flying Meridian Technique from Yun Xiao and gain the heaven-defying flying power themselves.

However, most people retained some rationality. That youth named Yun Xiao is now a formidable Middle Stage Earth Bending expert, not much different from elders like Jia Tianshu and Wu Tong from first-class forces.

Moreover, everyone had witnessed Yun Xiao’s combat prowess. At least they believed that in battles of the same level, he could probably claim unmatched victory across the continent.

Didn’t you see that Zhao Huaixian from the Zhao Family, even though he was a small realm higher than Yun Xiao, was sent flying by a casual strike? Anyone who overestimates themselves and tries to snatch something from this guy is simply courting death.

”Squeak! Squeak!”

Chi Yan, brought to the shore by Yun Xiao, once again emitted a weak yet angry squeak, its claw pointing at a white-browed monk dressed in a bright red cassock.

”You’re saying he’s also involved?”

Seeing this, Yun Xiao turned his gaze to Yu Kuzhan from Thunder Sound Mountain, a fierce glint shooting from his eyes as he began to realize some things.

Yun Xiao understood Chi Yan’s power quite well. Even if the opponent was a Late Stage Earth Bending expert, severely injuring Chi Yan might not have been an easy feat.

Thus, it must have been the old monk and the old Zhao family members working together, employing some despicable means to heavily injure Chi Yan. At that moment, boundless killing intent surged from within him.

”Go aside and rest first, watch how I avenge you!”

Flashing a hateful gleam from his eyes, Yun Xiao shook his shoulder, sending Chi Yan toward the direction of Demons Mountain, as he shouted: ”Elder Ge, please look after Chi Yan!”

Yun Xiao was quite familiar with this elder of Demons Mountain. He knew that the Beast Vein Masters of Demons Mountain would never harm a Vein Demon easily, making it most appropriate for them to look after Chi Yan.

”Yun Xiao, let me lend you a hand!”

Taking Chi Yan, Ge Wanli was about to hand it to Luo Fusheng beside him when he heard the plainly dressed youth on the other side lightly shake his head.

”Elder Ge, you need not intervene. With these laughable opponents, there’s no need for a venerable elder of Demons Mountain to act.”

Yun Xiao turned his head aside, his gaze sweeping over Zhao Huaixian and Yu Kuzhan, while his words left everyone in the scene exchanging curious glances, entirely puzzled about where this boy derived such immense confidence.

”Yun Xiao, if you believe that having Flying Meridian Techniques will allow you to escape, I must say you’re thinking too much. Look, what’s that?”

Hearing Yun Xiao’s arrogant words, the Seventh Elder of Wuyan Palace, Zhang Daohe, could no longer suppress his ire. As he finished speaking, he pointed towards the sky, prompting everyone to look upwards.

”Chirp! Chirp!”

Two cries of luans echoed down from the sky, seemingly carrying a hint of warning. These were the Purple-green double luans of Wuyan Palace, two genuine Ninth Rank low-level Flying Beast Pulse Demons.

”Zhang Daohe, are you suggesting those two foolish birds can prevent my escape?”

Yun Xiao also looked up with the others, but the next moment he wore a cold smile, his words seemingly heard by the Purple-green double luans in the sky, provoking them to emit two more furious cries.

”This is not the time for empty words to solve problems!”

Of course, Zhang Daohe wouldn’t believe Yun Xiao’s words; he merely thought this boy was all talk, unwilling to admit defeat while inwardly panicked, since the Purple-green double luans were there as obstacles to Yun Xiao’s only escape route.

”Do you believe me? I’ll make them bite you!”

Just as everyone was pondering, Yun Xiao spoke more ”nonsense,” causing Zhang Daohe to burst into laughter, while several Wuyan Palace experts beside him wore disdainful smiles on their faces.

”That boy must be mad!”

This was the candid thought of many Wuyan Palace experts. That pair of Purple-green double luans had been tamed by a Beast Vein Master of Earth Rank Advanced from Wuyan Palace, taking a considerable three years to finally subdue them.

They had always followed only the orders of Wuyan Palace experts, never defying them.

Wuyan Palace was one of the top-tier forces on the Tenglong Continent, housing many Meridian Refining experts, not only Medical Pulse Masters and Poison Vein Masters but also even recruiting some Beast Vein Masters.

Taming a Pulse Demon as a demon pet is no easy task, something Elder Ge Wanli of Demons Mountain speaks of from experience.

Every demon pet requires a significant expenditure of time and effort, with some Beast Vein Masters even living closely with the Pulse Demon for years.

Pulse Demons are proud creatures, unwilling to easily become demon pets of humans; some Beast Vein Masters even arouse the demon’s killing intent during the taming process, leading to their demise at the hands of the Pulse Demon.

Even taming a regular demon pet is challenging, let alone one that’s already been tamed by another.

Pulse Demons differ from humans, lacking complex thoughts, and once they submit to a human cultivator, they will never serve a second master, unless the original master dies.

Furthermore, if the original master dies, the demon pet might also follow them, like the mount of Demons Mountain’s founding ancestor, the Snow Stepping Flying Horse, which remained untamed for years until Xu Hongzhuang appeared.

Thus, even to a Beast Vein Master of Earth Rank Advanced like Ge Wanli, Yun Xiao’s words seemed sheer nonsense because such happenings were utterly impossible and didn’t fit within his understanding.

”I truly wish to see how you intend for them to bite me!”

Anger turned to laughter for Zhang Daohe, who continued the conversation with Yun Xiao’s bold words. Upon finishing, he emitted a whistling sound, resulting in two large shadows descending from the sky, targeting the audacious Yun Xiao.

Witnessing this scene, many pondered; weren’t you, Yun Xiao, claiming to make the Purple-green double luans bite Zhang Daohe? Now under control by the latter, they seemed poised to attack you, a total reversal.

Two Ninth Rank low-level Flying Beast Pulse Demons, possessing formidable strength, everyone watched the still calm and collected young boy in coarse attire, eager to see how he would handle the situation.

Nevertheless, considering Yun Xiao’s extraordinary strength, nobody really believed the Purple-green double luans could seriously harm him; however, his bold words seemed poised to become a grand joke.

”Red Feather, those two lowly creatures dare to challenge the dignity of an Ancient Heavenly Phoenix like you? If it were me, I surely wouldn’t tolerate it!”

Yun Xiao slightly raised his head, gazing at the rapidly approaching Flying Beast Pulse Demons, and from the depths of his mind, a voice of enigmatic meaning echoed, instantly unleashing a noble and majestic aura from a certain entity.

When this aura emerged, the swiftly charging Flying Beast Pulse Demons, the Purple-green double luans, revealed an intense horror in their luan eyes, as if sensing something utterly unimaginable.
