Chapter 1119: Fragile Beyond Measure!

In the courtyard, the atmosphere at this moment solidified. A gentle breeze blew by, but it could not dispel the tense tension… Under the blood-red jade token in Ling Quan’s hand, even the two black-robed elders did not dare to take any action. This Blood Jade Order had a strong deterrent power within the ancient clan, and even they could not easily ignore it. Xiao Yan’s gaze turned to Ling Quan, and then paused on the stern face. In his dark eyes, a chill slowly rose…

Xuner’s gaze lingered on the blood-red jade tablet in Ling Quan’s hand for a moment, and her expression turned completely icy. She hadn’t expected that this guy actually carried the Blood Jade Order! “Ling Quan, come with me now, and I can pretend nothing happened!” Taking a deep breath, Xuner fixed her clear eyes on Ling Quan and spoke slowly.

Ling Quan’s lips twitched slightly. After a while, he slowly shook his head. The more Xuner behaved like this, the thicker his killing intent towards Xiao Yan became in his heart. “Miss, this is the elders’ command, and I have no right to disobey!”

Hearing Ling Quan’s words, Huang Er’s face gradually calmed down, and she whispered, “Alright, I’ll remember this…”

Hearing Xuner’s soft, gentle voice, Ling Quan’s expression changed. He knew in his heart that Xuner was truly angry this time.

“It’s all because of this worthless Xiao family brat! Even if I risk offending Miss today, I must leave an unforgettable mark on this waste!” Ling Quan’s face became increasingly sinister, and his eyes, like a beast’s, stared fixedly at Xiao Yan. His hand holding the Blood Jade Order slowly tightened, making a slight creaking sound.

“Are you going to follow me, or do I need to make a move?”

A hoarse, cold voice slowly came from Ling Quan’s mouth.

Xiao Yan gazed straight at Ling Quan, and the corner of his mouth finally curled up into a chilling arc. This guy had successfully stirred his killing intent.

“You still think it’s the same as those years ago?” Hearing Xiao Yan’s words, Ling Quan laughed instead of being angry, “Good, so it seems you don’t plan to go with me to the Ancient Clan?”

Xiao Yan smiled and nodded. He very well knew that Ling Quan was looking for every excuse to make a move against him, but did the other party also know that he, too, harbored such thoughts? The grudges from back then, if he just left like this, wouldn’t it seem a bit weak? But now, Xiao Yan also very much wanted to let this commander of the Black An Army know that although he could easily take Xuner away from him back then, now, if he does not allow it, this commander has lost the qualification!

Seeing the smile on Xiao Yan’s face, Ling Quan also smiled, and the icy killing intent in his smile was palpable even to a blind person.

“This commander will let you know today, no matter how much you can leap, in the eyes of my Ancient Clan, you are but a mere ant. Do you really think that your insignificant family, which doesn’t even have the qualifications to set foot in the Central State, is still the Xiao Family of yesteryears?”

Ling Quan took a step forward, and a vast aura erupted from his body like a volcano, sweeping through the sky!

“Take another step, and die,” a soft voice suddenly sounded, and a white, graceful figure appeared in front of Xiao Yan. A faint gray air current slowly rose from Little Healer Immortal’s body.

Seeing the sudden appearance of Little Healer Immortal, Ling Quan’s pupils contracted slightly. With his abilities, he could naturally sense the terrifying strength of Little Healer Immortal…

“Relying on women again? Back then, it was Inner Court’s Su Qian, and this time, it’s another woman. When will you ever truly rely on yourself? If your ancestor knew of this, he would be restless even in the afterlife, wouldn’t he?”

Ling Quan turned his gaze to Xiao Yan, his tone full of mockery and disdain.

“First, any power that can be commanded is one’s own power. Relying on others is childish talk that only invites ridicule. How could you be so arrogant if not for the reputation of the Ancient Clan? What is your five-star Battle Sect strength worth alone?”

Xiao Yan smiled, his smile becoming more and more chillingly cold.

“Second, your ancestor of the Xiao Family, you have no right to mention.”

“Third, I do not need anyone’s help to deal with you.”

Smiling, Xiao Yan looked at Ling Quan whose face was twitching, then gently pulled Little Healer Immortal and moved around.

“You…”

Little Healer Immortal’s brows furrowed slightly.

“You don’t think I can handle trash like him, do you?”

Xiao Yan turned his head and looked at Little Healer Immortal, smiling.

Upon hearing this, Little Healer Immortal also shook her head helplessly and could only go along with him. She also found this man named Ling Quan extremely disagreeable.

“Xiao Yan gege, go ahead. I will take responsibility for all the consequences,” Xuner said coolly. For someone with such a cold personality to say these words shows how much Ling Quan had angered her today.

The two black-robed elders nearby exchanged glances and both sighed bitterly. They secretly cursed Ling Quan for not knowing his place, thinking that having the Blood Jade Order gave him free rein to act. They could imagine that even if this guy managed to return to the Ancient Clan safely, his future would not be bright.

Xiao Yan smiled, his gaze turning to the surroundings of the courtyard. Cupping his hands, he said, “Elder Ye Chong, this is just a private matter unrelated to the Ye Family. Please give us a moment here.”

“Mr. Xiao Yan, you joke. Not to mention this land, even if it were the Ye Family, I wouldn’t have a word to say if you asked,” Ye Chong outside the courtyard hurriedly smiled. They were attracted by the four-winged unicorns in the sky, and he understood that someone who could associate with Xiao Yan was no ordinary person, and these people, the Ye Family mostly couldn’t afford to offend.

Xiao Yan smiled, his gaze turning to the gloomy-faced Ling Quan, and said, “Commander Ling Quan, will you face me alone, or together?”

As he spoke, his eyes glanced at the dozen or so figures that had arrived with Ling Quan. Their strength was not weak, but the highest among them was only at the peak of Battle Emperor, not enough to make him take them seriously.

“Don’t act so arrogantly in front of me. Dealing with you, one person is enough!”

Ling Quan laughed sinisterly, and his hand gripped tightly. Light flashed, and a lightning spear formed. As the spear solidified, he stomped the ground, leapt into the sky, and aimed the spear at Xiao Yan, sneering, “Today, let me see what qualifications a useless member of the Xiao Family has to be so arrogant?”

Xiao Yan smiled, his dark eyes filled with killing intent. His figure moved, appearing in the sky, and with a grip, the Heavy Scale appeared.

Chi!

At Xiao Yan’s appearance, Ling Quan’s eyes flickered with coldness. He shook his spear, and the dazzling electric light twirled, transforming into a thunderous dragon, roaring like thunder, and shooting towards Xiao Yan!

Xiao Yan looked calmly at the lightning spear hurtling towards him, without any intention to dodge. Green flames enveloped the heavy scale, and he hacked down!

Ding!

The scale swept through the air, colliding with the thunder dragon, and sparks flew!

The moment they collided, both figures staggered backward several steps. Ling Quan’s face changed slightly; the powerful force from the spear made his palm feel numb!

“Your brute strength is impressive!” Ling Quan laughed angrily, and his figure vanished, reappearing in front of Xiao Yan, the spear dancing and snaking, aiming at Xiao Yan’s vital points with sharp and ruthless strikes.

“Thunder Snake Dance!”

Chi chi chi!

Gunpowder shadows appeared in the air, but Xiao Yan’s figure seemed to phase out, dodging the deadly spear moves of Ling Quan…

Seeing Xiao Yan’s movements, Ling Quan’s eyes glinted with coldness. He slammed the gun hilt with his hand, and the spear shot out like a bolt, tearing a black crack in the space.

The spear shot out, but just before it hit Xiao Yan’s chest, a fiery hand shot out, grabbing the spear, dissipating its force, and then breaking it, transforming it into countless silver snakes, which dissipated in the flames…

“Fancy spear techniques, utterly useless!”

Xiao Yan crushed the spear with a palm, his face showing a cold smile. Although the spear was fast, under the cover of his soul power, it was basically useless.

With the spear destroyed, Ling Quan’s face finally showed a significant change. He instantly retreated, and during his retreat, his hands rapidly formed seals—a technique Xiao Yan was very familiar with, the Imperial Seal Technique!

“Heavenly Fire Three Transformations, First Transformation!”

Xiao Yan snorted in his heart. With his current strength, activating the Heavenly Fire Three Transformations was almost instantaneous. The first transformation had long been mastered to perfection!

Xiao Yan’s aura surged, reaching the same level as Ling Quan. He flashed forward, appearing in front of Ling Quan like a ghost, his dark eyes shimmering with coldness.

“Mountain Opening Seal!”

Xiao Yan’s speed shocked Ling Quan, who hastily completed the seal and launched a palm attack!

“I’ll let you open the mountain!” Ling Quan’s palm struck, but Xiao Yan’s simple, powerful punch hit his palm, green flames erupting from his fist!

No one knew the Mountain Opening Seal better than Xiao Yan. He struck the weakest point of the seal.

Bam!

Flames exploded in the sky, and a crackle sounded from Ling Quan’s wrist. Sweat instantly covered his forehead!

But Ling Quan’s mental fortitude was excellent. Despite Xiao Yan’s fierce counterattack, he quickly reformed seals, but before he could finish, a fiery hand appeared out of nowhere, grabbing his hand!

“Fancy spear techniques, slow seals, hollow combat energy… compared to my expectations, you are far inferior. Disappointing. Four words to describe you…”

Xiao Yan held Ling Quan’s hand firmly, shaking his head slowly, his gaze pitifully watching the pale-faced Ling Quan.

“Powerless to resist!”
