As the Universe Turns - Chapter 952
Chapter 952 Reveal One’s True Form
The wind and clouds surged, and a powerful aura instantly enveloped them. On the plaza, the souls of the disciples had yet to be settled. At this moment, they were shocked again. A dozen or so figures had suddenly arrived in the direction of the valley entrance.
However, looking at the person in the lead, he had white hair and a beautiful face. His gaze was cold and fierce. With just a single glance, he gave off a suffocating and oppressive feeling that was as heavy as a mountain.
“What … what’s going on!”
Slow down, the disciples of the Sword Burying Valley were all stunned. Even the elders were stunned. Why was another Li Zhengyan here? Then those people just now were …
The group of people just now all revealed shocked expressions. Li Zhengyan looked at them and said coldly, “Who are you pretending to be an old man?”
As soon as he finished speaking, his palm swept away, and a burst of strength immediately surged out, causing all of them to vomit blood and fly away. Most likely, the blood he vomited this time was real blood.
“Shit …”
Brocade Childe immediately thought that something was wrong. In the next moment, it was as if he saw two sharp sword-like gazes coming towards him.
At this moment, his heart was like a drum beating, but he forcefully calmed down. The folding fan in his hand shook gently, and he said in a loud voice, “I just saw that something was wrong with these people. So they really were fakes …”
“Huh?”
Li Zhengyan’s gaze was like thunder as he coldly stared at him and said in a deep voice, “Who is Your Excellency? What are you trying to do in front of him?”
The last sentence rang out like a bell, causing Brocade Childe’s heart to jump. However, his expression did not change. He pretended to be calm and said, “I am, Lustless Heaven, Xiao Yichen.”
“Lustless Heaven? Xiao Yichen?”
Unexpectedly, after hearing this, Li Zhengyan laughed loudly. Finally, he looked at Gongsun Zhang in front of the square and smiled, “Gongsun Valley Master, so today, you invited such a young boy to deal with me?”
As soon as he said those words, the atmosphere became extremely stiff. Everyone in the Sword Burying Valley had ugly expressions. Could it be that this Li didn’t even look down on the Lord of Lustless Heaven?
At this moment, Gongsun Zhang’s expression changed. He looked at “Xiao Yichen” outside, his expression filled with doubt.
At this moment, Brocade Childe, who was called a “wet boy” by Li Zhengyan, actually didn’t dare to refute a single word. He only kept shaking the folding fan in his hand to conceal his nervousness, but he was thinking of a way to escape.
Right at this moment, a man dressed in white walked up behind Li Zhengyan and whispered, “Master, this Xiao Yichen is not small. He is the master of Lustless Heaven. There are quite a few rumors about him outside. In short … it’s best not to provoke him so easily.”
“Oh?”
Li Zhengyan narrowed his eyes. During this period of time, he had heard many rumors about Xiao Chen, but he did not believe them. He looked at Brocade Childe and his tone remained the same. “You said you were Xiao Yichen, then tell me, who is your master?”
Brocade Childe’s back was already dripping with cold sweat. At this moment, he forced himself to calm down and said, “Everyone knows that Xiao is a disciple of Xuan Qing Yaoguang Palace’s Fairy Miaoyin. Why would Senior Li ask such a question?”
“Xuanqing Sect, Fairy Miaoyin …”
Li Zhengyan stroked his white beard and looked at him, “Although I haven’t left the Spirit Ruins Realm, I’ve heard of Fairy Miaoyin’s name. Forget it, since you are a disciple of Fairy Miaoyin, what happened today has nothing to do with you. You can leave now!”
Hearing this, Brocade Childe was overjoyed, but he immediately reacted. It was as if he had fallen into an ice cellar. This Li was testing him at this moment! If he really turned around and left, he would probably slap himself to death with a single palm …
Thinking of this, Brocade Childe felt as if he had walked back from the Gate of Hell. Cold sweat dripped down his back. He thought that he must not reveal the slightest hint of timidity at this moment, so he decided to give up his aura and said, “Valley Master Gongsun is Xiao’s friend. If Senior Li wants to cause trouble for Valley Master Gongsun today, then Xiao can’t leave like this …”
“Huh?”
Hearing this, Li Zhengyan’s gaze turned even colder. He said coldly, “I gave you a chance to live. It’s your own fault for not grasping it properly …”
A cold murderous aura enveloped Brocade Childe. His heart beat like thunder, but his expression was still calm. At the same time, he urged his profound arts and a powerful aura immediately surged out. “In that case, Senior Li will definitely be enemies with Lustless Heaven today …” he said in a deep voice.
The two of them looked at each other with tit for tat. At this moment, Li Zhengyan also felt a heavy pressure. He thought to himself, “Why is this brat’s aura so strong?” Could it be that his cultivation is unfathomable despite his young age?
It was impossible for him to say that he didn’t have the slightest bit of misgivings at this moment, especially when he felt the aura coming from the other party’s body.
Right at this moment, a man dressed in Qingyi walked up from behind him. He looked at Brocade Childe and turned around. His face revealed a look of doubt. He lowered his head and muttered to himself, “No … I heard rumors outside saying that Xiao Yichen’s hair was as white as snow and as cold as frost, but this person doesn’t look like him at all …”
“Huh?”
Li Zhengyan’s eyes narrowed as he whispered, “You mean this person in front of you, isn’t he Xiao Yichen?”
The man from Qingyi said, “I don’t dare to say that … my white hair is as cold as frost and snow. I’m just listening to people. Otherwise … shall I go and try him?”
“Alright, go ahead. Be careful. I will help you when necessary.”
When Li Zhengyan sent the secret message, the Qingyi man stopped talking and looked at Brocade Childe. He smiled and said, “I heard that Lord Xiao’s cultivation is outstanding. I am is not talented. I hope that Lord Xiao will spare no effort to teach me a lesson today.”
After he finished speaking, he instantly flew over like a bolt of lightning. That Brocade Childe immediately thought that something was wrong, but the other party was already close to him, so he had no choice but to brave it and raise his strength to resist.
After dozens of moves, Brocade Childe secretly complained endlessly, but at this moment, he was unable to escape. The opponent’s attack was too ferocious, and he could only slowly defend himself, unable to retaliate.
On the other side of the plaza, everyone’s faces revealed shock. What’s going on? Venerable Lord Xiao’s aura is clearly so strong. Why is his move so powerless when it comes to his hands …
“Hmph, a trump card from outside.”
Li Zheng coldly snorted. At this moment, he seemed to have seen something. He didn’t say anything else. He brushed his palm away and the palm power immediately turned into a palm print, smashing the rocks along the way into pieces.
Brocade Childe felt suffocated, but in a hurry, he didn’t even have any room to resist. With a “bang”, Li Zhengyan’s palm hit his chest from afar, and he immediately spat out blood. He flew backwards, smashing a stone pier in the plaza into pieces.
“Childe Xiao …”
At this moment, everyone in the crowd was shocked. They all looked at Brocade Childe, who was lying in the rubble in fear. Li Zhengyan raised his head and smiled, “Lord Lustless Heaven, is that all you have? If that’s the case, then I’ll send you to the Western Heavens today!”
As soon as he finished speaking, he raised his palm and murderous intent suddenly appeared. Brocade Childe’s heart immediately shattered and he hurriedly said, “Senior, wait … wait!”
“Oh?”
Li Zhengyan looked at his panicked expression and sneered, “What? I told you to leave just now, but you didn’t leave. Are you afraid of death now? Is this the descendant of Fairy Miaoyin?”
“No, no …”
But seeing that Brocade Childe’s face was as pale as paper, Cang Cang said in a panic, “I, I … actually, I am not Xiao Yichen, I, my name is Yi Yiping … I, I am …”
He was so scared that his entire body trembled. His words were already incoherent. The people beside him, especially Gongsun Zhang and the elders, were already stunned. Some of the female disciples in the square had also lost their color. This person … He was actually not the master of Lustless Heaven …
