Everybody’s gaze turned towards the direction of the sound. Yang Zhen and the cat raced this way at a rate that startled everyone.
After hearing someone shout Yang Zhen’s name, the faces of most people present changed color, especially the practitioners sitting on the steps. Their faces drained of color, looking pale at the sight of Yang Zhen’s wild dash.
Seeing so many people become scared because of a name, Elder Qu frowned curiously, turned his head, and asked Patriarch Wang, “Who is Yang Zhen?”
Patriarch Wang looked equally puzzled!
Hua Youyue gasped, her lively eyes staring at Yang Zhen with an expression of shock. A strange glint passed through her eyes. She slowly stood up and without turning her head, she began to walk downstairs.
Elder Qu watched Hua Youyue leave with a surprised look, about to speak, when a Nascent Soul Stage practitioner chuckled and said, “Elder Qu, no need to worry. Yang Zhen is just a Golden Core Stage practitioner. However, it’s said that this kid is shameless and cunning, and he has offended quite a number of people.”
“Just a Golden Core Stage Practitioner?” The confusion in Elder Qu’s eyes deepened. He looked at Hua Youyue with a strange expression and asked in a grave voice, “Why has the Flower Tower Master left?”
The hard-won balance among everyone present would be disrupted if one of them left. A new balance would have to be found, wasting much time.
Especially if it was Hua Youyue. Her position was crucial. Her departure would make things even more complicated for the group.
Hua Youyue turned her head back at Elder Qu, with a wry smile on her face, and said, “Yang Zhen is my friend.”
Elder Qu nodded and then said solemnly, “Even if he is your friend, Flower Tower Master, you should not leave, disregarding everyone’s interests, right?” “Yes, Flower Tower Master, your position is crucial, and almost no one can take your place at the fifteenth layer. Please think it over so as not to displease the three practitioners at the Void Cultivation Stage.
“Let Yang Zhen come. Let him wait below.”
Everyone began to criticize Hua Youyue collectively, persuading her not to leave the fifteenth layer for Yang Zhen.
Hua Youyue gave a bitter smile, glanced at the approaching Yang Zhen, and explained, “It’s not that I disregard everybody’s interests; it’s just that… Yang Zhen is here!”
“Hua Youyue!” Patriarch Wang snorted coldly, stared at Hua Youyue with a harsh gaze, and said angrily, “Don’t push your luck. Let Yang Zhen wait below. He dares to barge in forcefully…”
Whoosh!
Before Patriarch Wang could finish speaking, everyone saw a cat running on two legs, dashing straight through the crowd and scampering up the mountain.
“Not good!”
“How dare you!”
“Where did this cat come from, showing such disrespect?
Everyone was taken aback, their expressions collectively flabbergasted. The cat leaped nimbly and darted to Patriarch Wang’s side. Before Patriarch Wang had a chance to close his mouth, the cat had already zipped past him. It stopped at the thirty-ninth level, turned around with its hands on its hips, and laughed heartily. It looked smugly at Yang Zhen and said, “Kid, if you can catch me, I’ll walk on my front paws. Come on, see if you can!”
At the cat’s words, everyone present simultaneously turned their stunned gazes onto Yang Zhen.
When Yang Zhen arrived at the foot of the mountain, he didn’t stop for an instant and charged straight up: “Damn it, if you’re tough, you try running
again!”
“You want me to run, I’ll run, doesn’t that make me look bad? Dare to come up!”
“I will come up!”
Boom!
Yang Zhen leaped directly to the tenth level, and as soon as his feet hit the ground, his face changed.
“Not good, Yang Zhen, get away from me!”
Patriarch Wang’s face changed dramatically, he hastily guarded his mind. While he was shouting at Yang Zhen to go away, Yang Zhen had already zipped past him.
Boom!
An overwhelming wave of energy surged forth, rolling down from the mountaintop, engulfing the entire world. In just an instant, everyone was completely ensnared in it.
Elder Qu’s face turned green with rage. Just as he was about to take action, his expression shifted suddenly. He quickly shielded his mind and shouted sternly, “Stop, stop quickly, or we’ll both be…”
Yang Zhen looked at Elder Qu as if he was an idiot, then stomped his foot onto the twentieth step.
Boom!
It was as if the entire mountain peak was shaking, waves of overwhelming energy surged forth, like gigantic waves that directly blasted everyone except for Yang Zhen and the Fat Cat away.
The group turned pale, almost all of them were spurting fresh blood. Only Elder Qu and Patriarch Wang managed to hold back, sitting on the ground, staring at Yang Zhen in amazement.
Hua Youyue and Medicine Elder exchanged a look, their faces showed they were both between laughter and tears.
When Yang Zhen was charging towards them, Hua Youyue descended the staircase against everyone’s advice because she was certain that once Yang Zhen arrived, chaos would ensue. And just as predicted, seeing the practitioners scattered on the ground, even three powerful figures of Void Cultivation Stage sitting on the ground, stunned, she was at a loss for words. Yet Yang Zhen, standing on the twentieth step, seemed to ignore everyone else. He was glaring fiercely at the Fat Cat above until everyone was blasted away. With an odd look on his face, he then turned around to comment, “Oh my, you all managed to fall off such smooth steps and butt-slide all the way down, how impressive!”
Everyone turned to stone, staring blankly at Yang Zhen, their anger flaring up right after.
“You despicable thing, this is outrageous! Boy, your name is Yang Zhen, isn’t it? Get down here now!” Patriarch Wang’s face darkened as he stared at Yang Zhen, fuming with rage. Clearly, Yang Zhen had pushed him past his limit. Yang Zhen laughed, pointed at Patriarch Wang, and cursed, “You old coot, I’ve seen plenty who fight when there’s disagreement, but never have I met anyone who starts cursing right on sight. I haven’t offended you, have you gone senile?”
Hearing this, an ice-cold chill ran down the spines of the spectators.
Yang Zhen, a practitioner at the Golden Core Stage, was bold enough to curse a powerful figure of the Void Cultivation Stage, and in such an unhesitating manner?
The next moment, everyone who knew Yang Zhen was shocked. The fluctuations in Yang Zhen’s cultivation clearly showed he had broken through to the Nascent Soul Stage!
“This kid has actually advanced to the Nascent Soul Stage?” Medicine Elder exclaimed in surprise, looking at Yang Zhen in disbelief.
Hua Youyue was also at a loss, looking at Yang Zhen with a complicated expression and eyes filled with disbelief.
Yang Zhen cast a withering glance at the enraged Patriarch Wang, ignoring the old coot, and turned to go up.
“Fat Cat, I wondered why you stopped running and now I see this place has a restriction. You think these lousy restrictions can spare you from danger? Let me tell you, you are overthinking!”
Yang Zhen glared, “Even God himself can’t save you today. This, the Sao Saint declares!”
Fat Cat was baffled by Yang Zhen’s challenge, “Damn it, kid, it’s impossible. How can you, a Nascent Soul Stage punk, make it to the twentieth step? But whatever, if you have the guts, come here, come on!” Yang Zhen was furious. He gritted his teeth and continued climbing upward, but he was uncertain.
That old coot had stopped only at the nineteenth step. Why didn’t they continue upward?
And why was the Fat Cat standing confidently on the thirty-ninth step, completely unafraid of him?
Could there possibly be some conspiracy?
While Yang Zhen’s thoughts whirled, an immense wave of energy exploded from the foot of the mountain. Patriarch Wang was fuming, his beard had practically curled upwards. His violent waves of True Essence raced up towards the sky like a tornado.
“Yang Zhen! I’m giving you ten breaths to kneel down and apologize, or 111 make your life worse than death!”
Upon hearing this, Yang Zhen turned around, fixed his eyes on Patriarch Wang for a long moment, took a deep breath, and said.
“Old man, have you ever heard a phrase of absolute wisdom?
“What?” Even though Patriarch Wang was shaking with anger, he was confused by Yang Zhen’s question and responded reflexively.
“Just because I have a low cultivation level doesn’t mean I can’t be sharp-tongued. Just because you’ve got a high cultivation level doesn’t mean you’re all that and a bag of chips. If you dare to blabber on, believe it or not, I’ll roast you to death.”
Upon hearing this, everyone sucked in a breath and stared at Yang Zhen in absolute shock. Even Hua Youyue was flabbergasted.
Roasting… a powerful figure of Void Cultivation Stage to death just by his words?
