“Xiao Yan?” Gazing at the two figures who slowly walked out of the void, the faces of Hun Ya and Hun Li gradually turned dark, their voices chilly. Xiao Yan gently stretched his body, floating in mid-air with Xuner, and looked down at the two below with a somewhat mocking gaze, “It’s been two years, and it seems you two aren’t doing very well?”
Hun Ya’s face was grim, but his eyes swiftly and cautiously swept around. After not seeing the mysterious strong figure from that day, he secretly heaved a sigh of relief, sneering, “Xiao Yan, don’t be too arrogant. Even if we can’t deal with you here in the Sky Tomb, once we’re out, you’ll become a homeless dog sooner or later!”
“In that case, let’s keep you two here forever. I think, with your strengths, if you fall here, you should be able to become energy bodies of about eight stars, right?” Xiao Yan smiled slightly, but his words made Hun Ya and Hun Li shiver. Eight-star energy bodies were practically at the lowest tier in the third layer of the Sky Tomb. If they were to end up like that, it would be better to just die outright.
“You’re overestimating yourself!” Hun Ya narrowed his eyes, his tone cold. After their last encounter, they understood that they couldn’t easily deal with Xiao Yan and Xuner, but similarly, Xiao Yan and Xuner didn’t have the strength to keep them here either.
“Is that so…?” Xiao Yan smiled lightly.
“Worthless waste of a fallen race, what qualifies you to be arrogant in front of us? If not for the woman’s power, you would have been dead long ago!” Hun Li mocked with a cold shout, his eyes filled with intense killing intent. If not for the fear of Xuner, he would have already lunged forward to kill Xiao Yan.
“Don’t act rashly. If they dared to show up, they must have some confidence. Let’s retreat first…” Hun Ya seemed much calmer. Although only Xiao Yan and Xuner appeared, he felt a sense of unease. He grabbed Hun Li and said in a low voice.
Hearing Hun Ya, Hun Li hesitated for a moment before nodding reluctantly, coldly saying, “Xiao Yan, remember this, next time we meet, we will definitely wipe out the Starfall Pavilion!”
As soon as he finished speaking, Hun Li and Hun Ya retreated quickly, vigilantly watching Xiao Yan and Xuner, their Dou Qi rapidly circulating within their bodies.
“Whether you can leave isn’t up to you two.” Seeing them retreat, Xiao Yan smiled slightly, “Leave it to me.”
With Xiao Yan’s final word, his figure disappeared like a ghost.
Seeing Xiao Yan vanish, Xuner’s face also showed a charming smile. Xiao Yan had now reached the peak of an eight-star Battle Sect, a level that surpassed Hun Ya and Hun Li, allowing him to easily deal with them.
“Hmph, looking for death!” The moment Xiao Yan disappeared, Hun Ya and Hun Li detected something. Hun Li’s eyes flashed with murderous intent, and he suddenly stopped, clenching his fist, black mist surging out, and he slammed it into the void in front of him.
As Hun Li’s fist smashed the air, a somewhat illusory figure appeared, a slender hand reaching out and grabbing Hun Li’s black-misted fist.
When the fists met, terrifying flames erupted from Xiao Yan’s palm, evaporating the chilling black mist with a sizzle…
“Two years, and your progress is only this much. Disappointing.” Xiao Yan’s hand was like a rock, immovable despite Hun Li’s struggle. Seeing Hun Li’s pale face, Xiao Yan shook his head slowly, his arm shaking, and his hand weirdly avoided Hun Li’s fist, slamming into his chest lightning-fast, exploding with power…
*Boom!*
The fierce energy poured into Hun Li’s chest, and he spat blood, his body flinging backward like a kite. Finally, he left a trail almost a hundred meters long on the ground before stopping.
“Eight-star Battle Sect?!” Seeing Hun Li struggling to get up, Hun Ya’s face filled with shock, unable to believe Xiao Yan had reached the eight-star level and even surpassed him!
“How is this possible?” Hun Ya’s mouth twitched, his heart roaring. In just two years, they hadn’t improved, but Xiao Yan had jumped from a six-star Battle Sect to an eight-star.
“Now it’s your turn!” Having dealt with Hun Li, Xiao Yan turned to the shocked Hun Ya and smiled lightly.
Seeing Xiao Yan look at him, Hun Ya clenched his hands, forming strange seals, and a strange clan symbol appeared on his forehead.
“Although I don’t know why you’ve suddenly gotten stronger, you’re not good enough to hold me back!” As the clan symbol appeared, Hun Ya’s aura surged, his robes fluttering. Sorrowful soul cries echoed from his body, but Xiao Yan’s strength wasn’t enough to make him panic. Hun Li had been careless, and Xiao Yan believed that if he was careful, capturing Hun Ya wouldn’t be easy.
Calling forth the clan symbol, Hun Ya didn’t want to stay and fight. With Xuner nearby, he knew he would be dead if she attacked. So, he turned and sped away in a flash of light.
“Hun Li, don’t worry, I’ll take revenge for you!” Hun Ya gritted his teeth.
Just as Hun Ya’s voice faded, his fleeing figure suddenly halted, and he glared at a figure not far ahead, hovering in the air with a pair of crystal clear bone wings, a playful expression on his face—Xiao Yan.
Seeing Xiao Yan’s speed, Hun Ya’s heart sank but didn’t hesitate. He stepped on the void, his Dou Qi bursting out, charging towards Xiao Yan with a powerful energy pressure.
Seeing Hun Ya’s desperate charge, Xiao Yan’s face didn’t change. He stepped forward, gazing calmly as the energy approached.
“Xiao Yan, die!” Seeing Xiao Yan not dodging, Hun Ya was pleased. Even an eight-star Battle Sect peak would hesitate to face him. Xiao Yan’s actions were suicidal!
*Xi!*
Hun Ya’s speed was extremely fast, and in a flash, he was in front of Xiao Yan, the wind pressure making Xiao Yan’s robes flutter, and he threw a fierce punch, his Dou Qi gathering in his fist.
*Bang!*
As Hun Ya’s punch hit, the space in front cracked, and a huge black spatial crack rushed towards Xiao Yan.
“Xiao Yan, this is the price of arrogance. Remember this in your next life!”
The punch struck, and Xiao Yan’s pupils rippled, and his face showed a mocking smile. A crimson light flashed on his forehead, and a strange clan symbol appeared.
“Xiao Clan’s clan symbol?” At that sight, Hun Ya’s heart trembled, a sense of unease spreading.
“It’s over…”
Xiao Yan smiled, and his right fist, imbued with a torrent of Dou Qi, smashed out!
*Boom!*
The fists collided, a deafening sound echoing through the area, and fissures spider-webbed the ground.
*Xi!*
In the energy storm, a shadow flew back, crashing to the ground, stones exploding into dust.
*Puff!*
Amidst the dust, Hun Ya spat blood mixed with broken organs, his eyes filled with fear and regret as his life force drained away.
Xiao Yan emerged from the sky, glanced at the dying Hun Ya, shook his head, and walked towards Xuner.
“Don’t worry, more Soul Clan members will join you soon…” As darkness covered Hun Ya’s eyes, a cold voice entered his ears.
