C617 Strike Fear into One's Heart
Shen Kuo didn't expect Loong Yan to be so bold. Not only did he publicly disobey his orders, he even dared to be so presumptuous towards his subordinates.
In addition to the ridicule from the surrounding people, Shen Kuo's anger had reached its peak.
Right now, he only wanted to slap Zhou Yi to death and get back his face.
However, the moment he raised his hand, Zhou Yi also raised his hand.
"He's really courting death!" Shen Kuo growled, and a majestic energy instantly poured into his palm. He then fiercely slapped Zhou Yi's palm.
Boom! * A low explosion of energy suddenly sounded out as a powerful ripple of energy quickly spread out between the two of them.
The experts nearby could not use their hands to create a barrier in front of them to protect themselves from the ripples of energy.
Normally speaking, Zhou Yi's cultivation was not high and there would not be energy ripples of that level. Even some of the surrounding trees were disturbed by that energy and they were instantly uprooted and flew into the air.
The two of them were surrounded by dirt from the explosion, so it was impossible to tell who would win and who would lose.
However, after a short period of time, the surrounding people could smell a strong scent of blood.
Loong Yan, who was at the side, finally reacted and hurriedly ran towards Zhou Yi.
"Sir?" Loong Yan's voice trembled a little. He was afraid that Zhou Yi would be severely injured by Shen Kuo's palm strike. What should he do then?
However, when he arrived in front of the two, he was surprised to find that Zhou Yi was standing there without moving at all while his opposite was empty.
"Where … where are they?" Loong Yan felt like his heart was going through ups and downs.
One second he was worried about Zhou Yi, afraid that something bad would happen to him. The next he found out that Zhou Yi was standing where he was, unharmed. However, his heart was lifted again because of Shen Kuo's disappearance.
"Disperse!" Zhou Yi raised his eyebrows and then said, "Let's go!"
At this moment, the earth and energy that filled the sky finally dissipated. Everyone finally saw the result of the battle between Zhou Yi and Shen Kuo.
"How is this possible?" The first one to react was the young man who kept teasing Shen Kuo. He believed that Shen Kuo's match against Zhou Yi was as firm as a nail on a board. Who would have thought that when the dust cleared, the one left behind was Zhou Yi.
Not only did he leave Zhou Yi, Shen Kuo didn't even leave a bone behind.
Compared to that, Loong Yan's follower was even more ruthless.
A person that could slap a person's Universe Stage down to the ground with a single palm strike, could be said to be extremely powerful. If it wasn't half-step World Stage, then that person had already reached the World Stage.
The young man looked at Zhou Yi, then looked at the three World Stage s in the distance, and couldn't help but retreat.
Other than this young man, there was also a middle-aged man. However, the two of them were not from the eight great families, and they were not even in the top ten of the sixteen courts.
If the youth in front of them were to suddenly make a move, they would have no one to rely on.
He turned his head and glanced at the other members of the eight noble families. These people were still looking at the stars as if none of them were looking in his direction.
The youth turned his head to look at the middle-aged man. That person had already pretended to chat with the person beside him, quietly moving into the distance.
The young man could only laugh dryly at Zhou Yi before turning around and running away.
"Boring!" Zhou Yi rolled his eyes, he didn't have the time to care about this guy.
Because he had just used the power of his left arm, he could only use the power of his left arm once in a short period of time. This was because he could not guarantee that he could completely control it.
Other than that young man, the other experts also chose to keep quiet about Zhou Yi's strength. When they looked at Zhou Yi, their eyes were filled with fear.
Because they knew, even though there were many Universe Stage here, there were only three people.
Since the three of them chose to leave, it proved that the three of them didn't want to be enemies with Zhou Yi. Therefore, it was impossible for the remaining people to find trouble with Zhou Yi.
Zhou Yi pulled Loong Yan's arm, then continued to walk towards the depths of the cliff.
Now that the two of them were exposed to the crowd, it was a lot easier for them.
Loong Yan stood on the spot and didn't react. It wasn't until Zhou Yi left that he reacted and followed behind Zhou Yi.
"Sir, now that we've killed Shen Kuo, I'm afraid that after we leave, we'll be greedy and in trouble. Those people will not keep our secrets for us!" After catching up to Zhou Yi, Loong Yan couldn't help but speak up.
Hearing this, Zhou Yi sneered: "You have to get out of here first!"
"What, what do you mean?" Loong Yan was confused.
Did Zhou Yi want to kill all of them?
"How is this possible?" Zhou Yi seemed to have seen through Loong Yan's thoughts and couldn't help but to open his mouth.
"Then, then what do you mean!" Loong Yan scratched his head in embarrassment.
Zhou Yi stopped in his tracks, and first laid another formation to block off the curse on Loong Yan's body, then said: "The situation is not looking good right now. First, there's a terrifying Poisonous Fog inside the cliff, and secondly, there's an inexplicable problem with the cliff's exit.
When Loong Yan heard this, he was stunned for a moment and then said in a daze, "What … What should we do now?"
Zhou Yi shook his head, "We will deal with it once and for all. No matter what, I will do my best to ensure your safety!"
With that, Zhou Yi continued to walk forward.
The person that wanted to go over the cliff was him, so Loong Yan was just helping.
But now, he had beaten the young master of the clan, who their Loong Family were attached to, to death.
Besides, there was a problem inside the cliff. No matter which one it was, it was impossible for Zhou Yi to abandon Loong Yan.
When Loong Yan heard Zhou Yi's words, he was stunned for about five seconds. Then he could only shake his head and smile bitterly. Since when did the position between the two of them have been reversed? Loong Yan had only just realized it himself.
The figures of the two quickly disappeared into the depths of the cliff. However, the Universe Stage experts of the eight great clans surprisingly agreed on the same thing.
"We can't let these two go!" Yang Jian, who was fighting passionately, looked at Leng Qing with a serious expression.
Leng Qing did not say anything. She merely nodded her head lightly.
It was because he also felt a strong sense of threat from Zhou Yi.
Not only that, because he had even walked with Loong Yan, his Loong Family had gradually declined over these years. If he was to be associated with Loong Family, perhaps he would have to be replaced within the sixteen courts.
Actually, Leng Qing wasn't worried about the sixteen palaces, because he had a feeling that this young man would leap over them and pose a threat to the eight great clans.
"There's no rush. When we get out …" Yang Jian stretched out his hand and made a throat erasing gesture.
The others understood, and then everyone dispersed, continuing to explore deeper into the cliff.
All they had to do now was to search for treasure, and not mention anything else.
At this moment, Zhou Yi was shuttling back and forth with Loong Yan.
Suddenly …
He felt the whole space shake. Then Zhou Yi's eyes widened: "Not good!"2
