Chapter 8: You are courting death
Ah
"You dare to make a move?" Upon seeing Xiao Yun take action, Fang Kun was first taken aback, then a sinister smile appeared at the corner of his mouth
"Hehe, is our Yan'er feeling jealous as well?" Beside her, Yan Shifei smiled, easily discerning her younger sister's thoughts
The dragon has a reverse scale; touching it results in death. Xiao Yun also has a reverse scale, and that is his sister
"Just happened to advance a little bit a couple of days ago," Xiao Yun said, spreading his palms.
The entire Ziyun County is aware that Xiao Yun has not made any progress for eight years
Xiao Yun paused and looked in the direction of the sound, only to see a few young men strutting towards him with an air of arrogance not far ahead.
What would happen if a young man were to be with a beautiful and captivating woman
You are beautiful, but you lack a bit of femininity
"Sister, what are you and Brother Xiao Yun doing?" Yan Shiyan walked over, her delicate nose wrinkling as she looked at the two on the bed, feeling increasingly uneasy in her heart. "Hmph, they always make me go out; there must be something they are hiding from me."
Having obtained Fang Shao's consent, Fang Kun grew bolder. He stepped forward, blocking Xiao Yun's path like a domineering crab, and called out in a sarcastic tone, "Oh, where is our great genius Xiao Yun off to?"
"Step aside, I have no time to waste with you all," Xiao Yun said with anger in his eyes, glaring at the sharp-featured Fang Kun.
This is the Dragon and Snake Capture Technique of the Xiao family
Creak!
"A guy with no vision." Yan Shiyan said with a look of dissatisfaction
"Hey, you still have a temper." Fang Kun's gaze was cold and sharp as he sneered, "Just a useless person, do you really think you are still that proud genius from back in the day? You are getting too full of yourself; be careful, or I, Kun Ye, might just break your dog legs if I get unhappy."
However, he absolutely does not allow anyone to speak harshly to his sister, nor does he permit her to suffer even the slightest grievance, not even insults
Did Xiao Yun injure Fang Kun
Over the years, his cultivation has stagnated, attracting countless cold glances and ridicule from the world, and Xiao Yun has been silently enduring all of this
The Yan sisters, Yan and Shi, can be described as exceptionally beautiful, possessing a captivating charm that could enthrall a city
Oh. Upon hearing this, Yan Shifei's eyelashes slightly lifted, and with a graceful smile, she said, "Then I must congratulate you; you will surely be extraordinary in the future"
The Xiao family and the Fang family are both among the four prominent families of Ziyun County. It is worth mentioning that over a decade ago, the Xiao family was the foremost among these four families
Because he believes that he will eventually have the opportunity to soar through the skies
Just as that cold snort fell, Xiao Yun's palm moved, transforming into a palm knife that slashed diagonally towards the wrist of Fang Kun's approaching hand
Fang Kun launched a powerful attack with incredible speed. A cultivator at the seventh level of body tempering possesses strength and reaction capabilities that far exceed those at the sixth level of body tempering. Unless something unexpected occurs, it would be quite difficult for the boy carrying the package to evade this fierce strike.
What kind of expression does this girl have? Xiao Yun shrugged his shoulders, shot a glance at Yan Shiyan, and then leaped off the bed.
"Do you really think you can break my legs?" Faced with the other party's harsh words, Xiao Yun couldn't help but stop in his tracks, a glint of cold light flashing in his eyes
The people near the street are also intently watching ahead, as they too wish to know the outcome
Only the smile of Fang Kun revealed itself, his pupils suddenly constricting. The opponent's palm strike was incredibly swift, accompanied by a sound of air being sliced, and in an instant, it struck his wrist. The speed was akin to a thunderclap, leaving him almost no time to resist
Among these youths, one is casting a sidelong glance at Xiao Yun, his eyes filled with mockery
"So fast!" Fang Kun was taken aback, and then his brows furrowed tightly. A sharp pain immediately pierced his heart as his eyes twitched.
After a short while, Yan Shifei had changed her attire, gracefully approaching in a long emerald green dress
He possesses the cultivation of the seventh level of body refinement, how could he possibly fear Xiao Yun
At that moment, the sound of the door being pushed open suddenly echoed, and a young girl walked in
"Where is that?" Yan Shiyan nodded slightly, her face flushed as she said, "I wouldn't be jealous at all."
In recent years, since the Xiao family ceased their supply of fire attribute spiritual herbs to Xiao Ling'er, Yan Shifei has sought assistance from the Yan family to find them. This is also why, when she initially entered the Ziyun Mountain Range, she remembered this matter, ultimately leading to her being ambushed and poisoned
"Why are you staring at my sister like that!" Yan Shiyan beside her said with a look of dissatisfaction
However, in comparison, the current Yan Shiyan possesses a few more traces of youthfulness and does not have the enchanting allure of Yan Shifei
As the grandson of the patriarch of the Xiao family, Xiao Yun's status is exceedingly noble. Yet now, a mere errand boy from a collateral branch dares to issue threats. Even though Xiao Yun is well-mannered, he cannot help but feel a surge of anger, and a hint of sharpness flashes in his eyes
Upon seeing the mischievous smile on the young man's face, Yan Shifei's heart raced wildly, and she instinctively shrank back like a little woman
"Am I not beautiful?" Yan Shiyan pouted her lips, looking quite displeased
"You little rascal, why are you still being polite with your sister?" Yan Shifei lightly brushed her jade hand, tucking a strand of hair behind her ear, and gave the young man a sidelong glance. That simple gesture was filled with charm, making one's heart race, and Xiao Yun couldn't help but steal another glance.
"I hope so." Xiao Yun smiled knowingly, for only this young girl had never shown any indifference towards herself due to her talent issues
The Fang family members! Upon seeing these individuals, Xiao Yun could not help but furrow his brow slightly
It seems that this young man has spent considerable time and effort on this, both in terms of money and study materials
"Viagra, is this guy really ignoring us?" Seeing the young man walk away directly, the young man from the Fang family couldn't help but feel angry
Especially when she saw her sister draped in only a thin veil, so sheer that even her fair skin was visible, her cheeks puffed up significantly, displaying a look of anger and jealousy, resembling someone who had come to catch a lover in the act
Even if a low-level cultivator has excellent martial skills, what use is it without sufficient strength
Should we teach him a lesson? Fang Kun asked
Fang Kun let out a cry of surprise, and the wrist that had reached out fell limp, as if the bones were about to break.
Hmm. The Yan sisters seem to be quite aware of this and did not keep Xiao Yun for long
Upon witnessing Fang Kun's all-out effort, the members of the Fang family held their breath, seemingly trying to clarify the situation that had just occurred
The Fang family is also one of the four prominent families in Ziyun County, possessing a profound heritage similar to that of the Xiao family, with ancestors who possessed martial souls
Sister Shifei is so beautiful! Xiao Yun rolled his eyes, feeling that it somewhat spoiled the mood
Having spoken, he reached out with a strong hand to forcibly seize the package from Xiao Yun's grasp
Thank you, Sister Shifei. Xiao Yun also accepted the package without hesitation, taking it into his hands with ease
Behind them, several young members of the Fang family approached slowly, each wearing a mocking smile at the corners of their mouths
"Certainly." Fang Wei raised an eyebrow and gestured towards Fang Kun.
However, Xiao Yun merely flickered his gaze, stepped forward, and with a sweeping motion of his right hand, he deflected the boy's fierce claw. Immediately, he curled his five fingers and directly seized the boy's wrist, immobilizing him.
Little did he know that Fang Kun did not pay attention to Xiao Yun's expression; his gaze flickered as he focused on the package that the latter was holding, his eyes shining with excitement
Hello, sister, are you feeling better? Seeing that sister with a rosy complexion, Yan Shiyan's anger finally subsided by half as she asked.
Fang Wei and others also wore a cold expression
His martial soul has absorbed a large amount of toxins and must be resolved immediately
The Xiao family and the Yan residence are not far apart, yet they are separated by several bustling streets
Sister Shifei, if you experience another poisoning episode next time, remember to come find me in advance. After chatting for a while, Xiao Yun then stood up to take his leave
Xiao Yun also ignored her and stood beside her after putting on his boots
The sudden exclamations caused the bustling street to stir abruptly, as pairs of eyes, filled with a hint of astonishment, turned towards the source of the sound. When the crowd realized what was happening, their mouths involuntarily gaped wide open, large enough to fit an apple.
The wrist was held tightly, and Fang Kun was also taken aback. However, he quickly steadied his mind, a cold smile appearing at the corner of his mouth as he said, "You, a mere sixth level of body tempering, think you can seize my vital points? Aren't you afraid that my strength will shatter your palm?"
It is nothing. Yan Shifei also smiled awkwardly
The person at the forefront is named Fang Wei, a direct descendant of the Fang family. However, the one who speaks is Fang Kun, a collateral descendant of the Fang family, who is the kind of sycophant that speaks on behalf of his master, lacking any real ability yet enjoying the act of bullying others by leveraging his connections
I want to kill you!" After Fang Kun felt the pain, he became furious and, with his other hand, gathered all his strength to transform it into an eagle's claw, fiercely reaching out towards the boy in front of him. The sound of the wind was sharp and resonant, and such a claw was enough to tear apart even the hardest rock
Several hours have passed since he extracted the poison from Yan Shifei. If the potent toxins are not neutralized soon, it poses significant risks to him. The lighter consequences may affect his mental state, while the more severe could lead to him being afflicted by the poison himself, resulting in issues with his internal meridians
It must certainly be due to Fang Kun's momentary carelessness. The young members of the Fang family shook their heads repeatedly
No one expected that this useless Xiao Yun had cultivated it to such proficiency Everyone was taken aback and astonished by this
"You may insult me, but if you dare to insult my sister, do not blame me for being heartless!" Seeing Fang Kun so audacious, actually daring to mock his own sister while attempting to forcibly seize the spiritual fruit in his hand, Xiao Yun's eyes turned completely cold, and his entire demeanor became sharp as a sword, like a killing god emerging from the battlefield of Asura
Xiao Yun cast a faint glance at the several young men from the Fang family, but he did not pay any attention to them and left directly
Hmm. Yan Shifei nodded, then glanced at the young man beside her, her eyes narrowing slightly. Her long eyelashes fluttered as she smiled and said, "Xiao Yun, I see that your speed in detoxification this time is several times faster than before. Has your martial soul improved?"
Otherwise, how could Yan Shifei have been concerned about the chill of his younger sister in the first place
Waste is waste
"Such a rich fire energy, within it lies the fire essence fruit." Fang Kun grinned and said, "Hehe, this must be to suppress the cold energy for your short-lived sister. Since she won't live long anyway, why not give it to me to sell? It would be nice to enjoy a few carefree moments."
Humph. Yan Shiyan pouted her lips and let out a cold hum, appearing quite displeased
These are some fire attribute spiritual herbs that I had someone collect. You can take them to Sister Ling'er." Yan Shifei took out a satin pouch from inside the room and handed it to the young man beside her. Inside were several Fire Origin Fruits and Fire Origin Mushrooms.
Yan Shifei shook her head, choosing not to address it directly, and then began to engage in small talk with Xiao Yunhan
"Oh, isn't this the genius Xiao Yun from our Ziyun County?" Just as Xiao Yun was about to hurry home to prepare for the antidote to the deadly poison, a sharp voice suddenly rang out from the crowd, causing his steps to pause slightly as he turned to look in the direction of the sound
When Xiao Yun walked out of the Yan residence, it was already past noon, and the crowd outside was bustling with activity, the noise was lively and quite boisterous
Look at her sister's disheveled hair, as if something just happened
Xiao Yun left the Yan residence carrying the package given to him by Yan Shifei
