Battle Through the Heavens - chapter-912
Xiao Yan indifferently glanced at the gold-silver elders whose bodies had
completely stiffened. His finger contained a force that was flicked. The
sharp force penetrated the heads of the two people. Their eyes turned
black and they fainted from the strike.
Xiao Yan held each of them with one hand and randomly threw them onto the
open ground as though he was throwing out garbage. The low sound the came
from the smashing of the bodies on the ground caused the eyes of quite a
number of people to twitch. All of them felt a silent pity for the
unlucky gold-silver elders.
After doing all this, Xiao Yan finally patted his hands. He turned
around, looked at Mo Tian Xing, and said, “Sect leader Mo, has your
sect’s junior sect leader been unconscious?”
Everyone hearts were filled with doubt upon hearing these words of Xiao
Yan that appeared from nowhere. However, the face of Mo Tian Xing changed
drastically. He furiously looked at Xiao Yan and cried out, “Is the
matter of my son being poisoned caused by you?”
The matter of Mo Ya being poisoned was naturally not related to Xiao Yan.
He was unconcerned when he heard the Little Fairy Doctor mention it to
him after the matter. Now that he had suddenly recalled it, it seemed
that it would be a great chip to play.
“Back then, you and I were enemies. He also wished to kill me. Isn’t
it normal for me to use some tactics?” Xiao Yan calmly replied. His
face did not change because of the furious Mo Tian Xing.
Mo Tian Xing was dull. He immediately clenched his teeth and said in a
deep voice. “Hand the antidote over to me, and I can treat this as
though it had never happened.”
“I can give you the antidote but you cannot participate in the matter
between Xiao Gate and the Demon Flame Valley. Otherwise…” A
viciousness appeared on Xiao Yan’s smiling face when he spoke until
this point. One was undoubtedly wasting one’s breath by attempting to
persuade this cunning fox. The effect of speaking everything openly was
instead much greater.
Mo Tian Xing immediately clenched his fist tightly when he heard this. He
seemed to hesitate a little. Seeing his hesitation, Han Feng hurriedly
said, “Sect leader Mo, has Mo Ya been poisoned by Xiao Yan? Do not fall
for his trap. I also know a little about detoxification. I will help
remove the poison once this matter is over.”
“You really think highly of yourself. An alchemist and a poison master
are two clearly defined occupations. An ordinary poison might be solved
by some ordinary antidote. However, the poison within young sect leader
Mo Ya is not an ordinary poison. I think that this point is something
that sect leader Mo understands very well. Hence, if you really wish to
hand your son’s life to an alchemist who does not specialize in poison,
you are accepting a great risk…” Xiao Yan glanced at Han Feng and
mocked him before involuntarily shaking his head.
Hearing Xiao Yan’s words, Mo Tian Xing, who was a little convinced by
Han Feng, hesitated again. A moment later, he finally asked in a low
solemn manner, “Do you dare hat you will completely cure my son of the
poison within his body after this is over?”
“I use the name of Xiao Gate to guarantee my word. Sect leader Mo, you
can rest assured that Xiao Yan does not wish to easily offend an elite
Dou Zong unless it is absolute necessary…” Xiao Yan smiled and spoke
after hearing Mo Tian Xing’s somewhat desperate tone.
Mo Tian Xing’s face stiffened. A moment later, he finally nodded his
head.
“Alright, the old me shall believe you this once!”
“Sect leader Mo, this little fellow is full of tricks. He is clearly
attempting to divide us. It is not as though you are unaware of his
strength. If he wishes to settle the scores in the future, the strength
of your Black Emperor Sect would likely have difficulty blocking him!”
A ferocious fury flashed across Han Feng’s eyes when he saw that Mo
Tian Xing was actually convinced by Xiao Yan to withdraw. On the surface,
however, he spoke with great regret.
“I do not wish to use my son as stakes…” Mo Tian Xing gloomily
responded. He had put in tons of effort to groom Mo Ya for many years.
Naturally, it was impossible for him to simply watch his son lose his
life under the torture of this poison. Moreover… the reason that this
old fellow was able to reply so quickly was also because of the
situation. The way he saw it, even if Han Feng successfully formed the
alliance, it was likely difficult for him to contend with Xiao Gate and
the Jia Nan Academy. After all, the uncertainty factor of Xiao Yan was a
little too great. Hence, it was difficult for him to tell just who would
be victorious in this fight between both parties. Hence, taking the
opportunity to withdraw from the battle and watch the fight between the
tigers from afar was not a bad decision.
It was naturally difficult for Han Feng to guess the many concerns in Mo
Tian Xing’s heart quickly. However, even if he managed to guess it, it
was likely that the fury in his heart would not be weakened. An elite Dou
Zong backing off at the last moment was undoubtedly a great blow to him.
This was especially the case at this moment. The originally uncertain
‘Black-Corner Region’ factions would likely feel timid now.
Hence, the atmosphere of the open ground had become much stranger after
Mo Tian Xing said that he would not participate. Some of the factions and
experts on the open ground also quietly turned their eyes away from Han
Feng. Some of them even lifted their winecups, poured some wine in, and
drank by themselves, ignoring the strange atmosphere around them.
Old Ying Shan’s face had similarly become somewhat unnatural. If Mo
Tian Xing were to withdraw, how could their side contend with Xiao
Yan’s group. After all, the other party had the equivalence of three
elite Dou Zongs, including Xiao Yan…
The corner of Xiao Yan’s mouth slowly lifted into a cold smile when he
sensed the slight transformation within the place. His eyes obscurely
threw a look of praise to the Little Fairy Doctor. If she had not
randomly poisoned Mo Ya after feeling extremely irritated at his
harassment back then, it was likely that he would have difficulty getting
Mo Tian Xing to withdraw today. Once Mo Tian Xing withdrew, Han Feng’s
side would have difficulty creating much waves. After all, just Han Feng
and Old Ying Shan strength would have difficulty turning the tide.
Moreover, with Old Ying Shan’s cautious character, it was likely that
he would rationally give up after knowing that he was no match for the
opponents regardless of how much desire he felt…
Xiao Yan’s hand was waved gently. Su Mei, Wu Tie, Old Ying Gu, and the
many experts who had come to help also slowly spread like an opening fan
and coincidentally formed a semicircle shape that partially surrounded
the in the open ground. The exit of the open ground was also completely
blocked. If they were not careful, this Demon Flame Valley might really
be removed from the ‘Black-Corner Region’ today.
A faint fierce aura quietly spread following the movement of the many
experts. Some of the experts with insufficient mental strength were
unable to endure the pressure that lingered in their hearts and quietly
left their seats…
Xiao Yan did not stop those who had left their seats. Their target today
was Han Feng and the Demon Flame Valley. It had nothing to do with the
other factions in the ‘Black-Corner Region’. If he were to attack
them here, he would really force them to join Han Feng. It was naturally
impossible for Xiao Yan to do such a foolish thing.
Han Feng’s expression grew more dark and dense as people began to rise
from their seats and leave one after another. Awhile later, his face was
finally covered under a dark dense shadow. A vicious low voice slowly
sounded.
“Xiao Yan, originally, I wanted to allow you to live a little longer.
However, since you insist on seeking death, do not blame me for not
considering our relationship as people who share the same teacher!”
Xiao Yan knit his brows when he heard this. What other tricks did this
fellow have?
Having understood Xiao Yan’s thoughts, Han Feng slowly raised his head.
His face had a strange smile hanging on it. After which, an unusual
laughter was transmitted from his mouth in an ear-piercing manner,
“Protector Xuan, please intervene!”
“Bang! Bang!”
Han Feng’s laughter had just sounded when waves of black fog suddenly
erupted from the surrounding mountain walls. Black fog curled and rose.
Immediately, dozens of human figures hidden under the black fog appeared
in front of everyone’s eyes.
The sudden unexpected occurrence caused everyone present to be shocked.
They immediately panicked a little as they looked all over the place.
“People from the ‘Hall of Souls?’ It is unexpected that Han Feng
has actually made contact with them!” This unexpected change had also
caused Xiao Yan’s group to be slightly startled. After which, Xiao
Yan’s face changed as he spoke in a dense manner.
“There is no need to be worried. Other than one of them whose strength
is at the Dou Zong class, there is no need to be afraid of the remaining
people.” Su Qian and the Little Fairy Doctor moved. Su Qian opened his
mouth and spoke when they appeared beside Xiao Yan.
Mo Tian Xing and Old Ying Shan were stunned because of the change of the
situation within the battleground. It was unexpected that Han Feng
appeared to have kept some tricks. There was an expert at the Dou Zong
class among these people within the mysterious black fog…
“Tsk tsk, Xiao Yan, do you think that my information would actually be
so easily obtained by your Xiao Gate? Everything you know about this is
merely information that I have released on purpose. My aim is to attract
you over. It is unexpected that you have really taken the bait…” Han
Feng strangely laughed. A moment later, he turned to Mo Tian Xing and Old
Ying Shan. He smiled and said, “You two. Is it much more secure
cooperating with me now? However, there is no need for the both of you to
act now…”
“Protector Xuan, this person is Xiao Yan. He is also someone from the
Jia Ma Empire’s Xiao clan which the ‘Hall of Souls’ is spending a
great effort to investigate. The thing that you need might be on him. Tsk
tsk, even if the thing is not on him, this little fellow has two kinds of
‘Heavenly Flame’ within him. It is likely that the effects of
capturing him and handing him to an Honorable Elder within the hall would
satisfy them more than any ordinary soul!” Han Feng raised his head and
loudly spoke to a person with the densest fog surrounding him.
“Xiao Yan huh? Hee hee, I have heard Protector Wu mention you. A little
troublesome… however, it is fortunate that I have received information
about you and have prepared quite a lot of things before hurrying
over…” A hoarse voice was transmitted from the lingering black fog
before reverberating in an unusually ear-piercing manner beside
everyone’s ears.
“Protector Wu?” A bloody redness suddenly surged into Xiao Yan’s
eyes when he heard this familiar name. A furious killing intent churned
unceasingly like a wave in his heart.
“It seems that you possess great hatred toward Protector Wu. Hee hee,
it is expected. Your teacher was captured by that fellow in front of you.
As his disciple, you would definitely feel terrible. However, you need
not be bothered. You will be able to see your teacher soon…” The
person within the black fog let out a sinister laugh before suddenly
crying out in a cold voice.
“All Spirit Envoys listen up. Form the Ten Thousand Soul Swallowing
Formation!”
When the cry sounded, one could see black fog surging out from the black
shadows on the mountain walls in all directions. Immediately, the fog
formed a black cloud that covered the valley. After which, a couple of
black fog-like things, that were spinning, flew out. A faint glow that
was emitted from within them as numerous illusionary spiritual bodies
with a pairs of bright-red eyes surged out like evil ghosts. Finally,
they emitted a terribly sharp cry that caused one’s blood to boil as
they shot toward everyone within the valley from all directions.
The savage smile on Han Feng’s face became even denser as he sat on the
leader’s seat and watched the countless spirits surge out.
