Following Yan Zhen's arrival, the martial artists who had been supporting Xing Feng all this while looked at the figure standing in the middle of the arena like a demon god. They could not help but slowly retreat. They did not even dare to breathe loudly.
The appearance of an expert from the other side had caused the balance of victory to tilt. Those who had been jeering earlier were now regretting their actions. They were cursing themselves for having a cheap mouth and joining in the fun for no reason.
At the moment of life and death, someone could not take it anymore and knelt on the ground."Leader Yan, I was blind and did not recognize Mount Tai. I have offended your sect. Please be magnanimous and let me off. I am old."
Before the person begging for mercy could finish, Yan Zhen raised his right hand and spat out a word,"Kill them!"
"Spare me!"
"Leader Yan…"
Immediately, wails and screams filled the air. The scene was very sorrowful.
The more one looked at this moment, the more one could see a person's character. Some knelt down and begged for mercy, crying bitterly, while others ignored the swords on their necks and looked arrogant.
Zhuang Yan stood on the second floor and looked at the scene in front of him. His heart was filled with sorrow. He could not help but imagine himself in it. He wondered if there would be a day when he would be forced into a life and death situation. At that time, he did not know if he would bravely face the sword and leave his strength of character, or kneel down and beg for mercy and live.
Zhuang Yan was caught in a dilemma and did not notice an unusual aura appearing behind him.
As the situation below developed, the martial artists were forced into a corner by the people from Giant Tidal Gang.?
At this moment, Zhuang Yan came back to his senses and laughed at himself."You really are worrying for nothing. Unless it's that critical moment, no one knows what choice they will make.
After throwing away these distracting thoughts, he was ready to go out and save them. His goal was to gain some reputation in the Heaven Expedition Alliance so that it would be convenient for his subsequent actions.
However, just as he was about to jump down, his plan could not keep up with the changes. An old but vigorous voice sounded,"Faction Leader Yan, since you have the upper hand, please forgive us!”
"Who is it?" Everyone immediately looked over.
In an instant, everyone's eyes were focused on Zhuang Yan. He was a little stunned and thought to himself, I didn't say anything.
At this moment, Zhuang Yan noticed the unusual aura behind him. He turned around and saw a white-haired old man and a young woman sitting by the window, eating and drinking calmly.
His behavior was exactly like the performance of a peerless expert in a novel, and it was also the behavior that Zhuang Yan had always "despised".
The old man put down the chopsticks in his hand and slowly left his seat. He walked towards the stairs. It seemed that he was going downstairs.
Zhuang Yan's gaze followed his movements, guessing his cultivation and identity.
When the old man passed by Zhuang Yan, he stopped and looked over. He sized him up and stroked his beard. He smiled and said,"What a handsome young man. Not bad, not bad!”
This short sentence made Zhuang Yan confused. He wondered if the old man had seen through something.
However, the other party only said a simple sentence and went straight downstairs.
"Deng, Deng, Deng"
With every step the old man took, the members of the Giant Tidal Gang downstairs felt as if someone was stepping on their hearts. They could not breathe and felt uncomfortable all over.
The old man's body, which looked like rotten wood at first, seemed to gradually grow taller as he moved. He was full of power and easily overshadowed the aura of everyone present.
An expert!
Yan Zhen immediately acted as if he was facing a great enemy. He bowed slightly, as if he was ready to attack, but his hands were in a defensive position.
The people who had been surrounded earlier seemed to have seen their savior. They ran behind the old man and sought protection. At the same time, they muttered,"Thank you for saving my life, Senior…”
"Thank you, Senior!"
Yan Zhen looked at these people who had escaped with their lives and did not have any reaction. He stared at the old man with a stiff expression. After a long while, he asked tentatively,"You are Elder Shan Yue, Liang Tianyi?”
The old man raised his head slightly and continued to stroke his long beard. He pondered for a moment and said,"I didn't expect that after retiring from the martial world for more than twenty years, there would still be someone who remembers my name.”
Hearing the old man's affirmative answer, Yan Zhen became even more alert. At the same time, he slowly retreated, not daring to make any excessive moves.
Many of the people behind Liang Tianyi also knew his name. After hearing the conversation between the two of them, they all looked at the skinny figure in front of them, their faces filled with doubt.
One of the more quick-witted people started to get close to him."So it's Senior Shan Yue. Junior Chen Liang is…"
When someone started, the others also reacted. They followed suit and introduced themselves. They tried their best to build a relationship with Liang Tianyi, afraid that they would be one step slower.
However, Liang Tianyi was also an experienced person. He knew what these people were thinking and did not pay much attention to them.
Zhuang Yan, who was upstairs, watched the performance below with interest. He felt that it might not be his turn to go on stage. With Liang Tianyi's cultivation comparable to the Pulse Tempering Realm, he would not be able to beat everyone below even if they were tied up.
"Is it fun? "Do you think these people are especially shameless? Grandpa said that these people in the martial arts world are like this…" A light voice sounded in Zhuang Yan's ear.
He turned around and saw that it was Liang Tianyi's deskmate, Liang Xinqi.
She was also the old man's granddaughter.
Zhuang Yan noticed her when she approached, but he noticed that Liang Xinqi's cultivation was not a threat to him, so he ignored her.
Zhuang Yan did not know what her purpose was, so he could only remain silent.
However, Liang Xinqi did not avoid suspicion at all. She stood on Zhuang Yan's left and leaned against the railing with him. She looked down and said,
"Why didn't you run away? The fight was so intense just now, and you looked so weak. You probably haven't learned any martial arts, right? Aren't you afraid that those rough people will hurt you?”
He was really a little too familiar.
Zhuang Yan looked at the girl beside him and thought to himself. Then, he casually replied,"I ran. I was on the first floor just now, and now I'm on the second floor.”
"Pfft ~"
Liang Xinqi was amused by Zhuang Yan's casual remark."Have you really never seen martial arts experts fight? The distance between the first floor and the second floor was so small that even a slightly skilled expert could casually take your life. Of course, they are an exception."
As she spoke, she pointed at the people who were hiding behind Liang Tianyi and seeking protection.
Zhuang Yan followed her words and chatted casually."So you can do it too? Looking at your grandfather, he should be an expert. The granddaughter of an expert shouldn't be bad either!”
These words seemed to have touched on the girl's heart. Liang Xinqi's face was filled with pride. She raised her head slightly like a proud peacock, but she pretended to be humble and replied,
"It's alright. Grandpa said that I'm still far from being able to do it. However, I'm stronger than Xing Feng and Lu Yiqi, and weaker than Yan Zhen.”
As expected!
Zhuang Yan's judgment of her cultivation was roughly the same. It was neither strong nor weak.
"Hmm, that's not weak either. Right, is your grandfather very famous?”
Initially, Zhuang Yan didn't want to bother with Liang Xinqi. However, after thinking about it, he might be able to get some information from Liang Xinqi. Furthermore, Liang Tianyi seemed to be a famous expert in the martial arts world. He might know about Shen Tianyou's situation.
With this thought in mind, he began to chat with Liang Xinqi, intentionally or unintentionally, to get information from her.
