Struggle for the Great Dao 9, Struggle for the Great Dao.
Suddenly, a white light that was as thin as a silver thread flashed and collided with the wine cup in Zhang Yan's hand. If it hit, the cup would definitely be overturned and he would look like a clown on the spot. However, at this moment, the sword pill in between his brows suddenly jumped and a sharp sword ray jumped out automatically. With a clang, it cut the white thread into two.
Yan Zhenhua, who was toasting at the side, was also shocked. He took two steps back and opened his eyes to see that it was a strange snake with white scales. The two pieces of its body were still wriggling, gathering together in the middle, as if it was going to merge into one again. He put down his wine cup, and with a glance, he found the figure of a skinny urchin, and a hint of displeasure appeared between his brows.
Zhang Yan's expression was indifferent as if he was not affected at all. He drank the wine in his hand without changing his action. At the same time, he flicked his sleeves, and two apricot yellow Talisman flew out. They immediately separated the head and tail of the white snake and suppressed it to the ground. No matter how it struggled, it couldn't move at all.
Yan Xiyue was sitting right below Zhang Yan. When that streak of sword energy suddenly appeared, her heart inexplicably palpitated. When she saw that severed white snake, her beautiful eyes were first filled with astonishment, and then with great anger. She turned her head and shouted, "Yan Xiaoyang, you're causing trouble for me again!"
Tong hurriedly shrunk his head, not daring to make a sound.
Yan Xiyue let out a light snort, giving him a look that said "I'll settle the score with you later". She hurriedly got up from the table and arrived in front of Zhang Yan. She bowed deeply and said apologetically, "My younger brother is naughty and mischievous. He has offended fellow daoist. Yan Xiyue apologizes in his place."
Zhang Yan smiled, put down his cup, and said, "It doesn't matter, your brother is just playing around."
He was able to discern that this was only a prank and didn't have the slightest intention of harming others, so he naturally wouldn't fuss about it with a five or six year old child.
Tong poked his head out and looked at the little white snake that had been cut into two by the Talisman. His heart ached and he shouted, "Quickly return Yun 'er to me."
Yan Xiyue sighed inwardly. He bowed once more and said, "This spirit serpent is my younger brother's companion since he was young and they are connected by blood. Fellow Daoist, please be magnanimous … and spare him this once. "
Zhang Yan smiled and waved his hand. The two Talisman burst into flames and turned into ashes.
As soon as the white snake was freed, the two halves of its body merged together and returned to its original position, throwing itself into the boy's bosom.
As the host, Yan Zhenhua naturally didn't want to make a big deal out of this. He glanced at Yan Xiyue. He said loudly, "Senior Brother Zhang is worthy of being the top student of Qincang School. You are indeed magnanimous."
"A student from Qincang School?"
Yan Xiyue's heart trembled when she heard this. Seeing how enthusiastic Yan Zhenhua was, it was obvious that he was not an ordinary student in Qincang school. She glared at her younger brother again. This naughty boy almost caused a huge disaster. After a moment of hesitation, he took out a jade tablet from his pouch and placed it on the table. "This is a jade pendant of a spirit bird refined by my sect. I offer this item as a token of my apology. I hope you will accept it. "
At this time, a burst of laughter came from the other side. Song Hong walked over with a wine cup in hand. "Fellow Daoist Zhang, this Lady Yan is the daughter of the Blue Feather Pavilion's Sect Master Yan. This Jade Talisman has an immortal bird that can be used at will. Its power is enough to rival a third level Mystic Light cultivator. I can't even beg for it normally. "
Yan Xiyue said in surprise, "Senior Brother Song. You are acquainted with Fellow Daoist Zhang? "
Song Hong glanced at Zhang Yan and said, "I can't say that I am acquainted with him. I only saw Fellow Daoist Zhang from afar at the celestial market that day, so I recognize him."
"If that's the case, then it would be impolite of me to refuse." Zhang Yan smiled and put away the jade tablet with a wave of his sleeves.
Yan Xiyue let out a small sigh of relief when she saw Zhang Yan accept the item. Although this was a small matter, if the matter was handled improperly, it would be the same as provoking a powerful enemy for no reason. Moreover, although the Blue Feather Pavilion had some history with the Southern Flower Sect, their sect was close to the Dragon Lake Pool. A student of Qincang School couldn't be easily offended.
After this interlude, they got to know each other. Yan Zhenhua warmly called for a few maids to pour wine for them.
However, at this moment, a short and fat Taoist with spirited eyes stepped into the hall. A few attendants who were standing by the curtains were about to stop him, but when they reached out their hands to push him away, they fell to the ground and rolled on the floor.
He took out a cloth bag and tipped it over. A red-haired youth who had been tied up fell to the ground in a sorry state. He snorted coldly and stepped on the youth's back, saying, "Yan Duo, come out. I met this little thief on the road. He killed my disciple and even said he was your nephew. I'd like to ask you how you discipline him."
The hall immediately quieted down. Yan Zhenhua was about to step forward when the Daoist glared at him and shouted, "I only speak to you, the elder. Don't be so long-winded, Yan Family junior."
Yan Zhenhua didn't know why, but fear rose in his heart when he was glared at by those vicious eyes. He pulled back his foot just as he was about to step forward.
The other people in the hall, including Zhang Yan, were all guests. They didn't know what relationship this Daoist had with Lady Yan, so they all kept their mouths shut.
At this time, Elder Yan had not yet arrived, and the guests had not yet begun toasting. Yan Duo was in the inner hall greeting the elders, but when he heard the ruckus outside, he hurriedly rushed out. Seeing the scene before him, he frowned and waved for a maid to put down the curtains in the front hall. He then glanced at the youth on the ground, took two steps forward, and cupped his hands. In a low voice, he asked, "Who are you? What is your purpose in capturing my nephew?"
The short and stout Daoist snorted coldly and said, "Oh? So he really is a child of your Yan family? Good, your nephew killed my disciple for no reason. Today, no matter what, your Lady Yan will give me an explanation. "
When the red-haired youth saw Yan Duo, he didn't shout. He only lowered his head and said nothing.
Yan Duo sighed slightly and asked in a low voice, "Fang 'er, is what he said true?"
The red-haired youth's body trembled, and he softly said, "This Daoist has no need to say anything."
Yan Duo was startled and said furiously, "Why are you like this?"
The red-haired youth then said in a low voice, "You are here to celebrate grandfather's birthday, so what right do you have to forbid me from coming? I am also grandfather's grandson, so I know what's good and bad. However, I don't have a birthday gift, so I went and snatched one myself to celebrate grandfather's birthday. "
Hearing that it was indeed so, Yan Duo was so angry that his face turned ashen. He immediately said, "Vile spawn! Vile spawn! "
Yan Xiyue glanced at the red-haired youth and softly said, "Fellow Daoist Yan, could it be that he … is Chi Fa-Er?"
Yan Zhenhua laughed bitterly. "I've let Fellow Daoist Yan see a joke. This little scoundrel is very shameless, stirring up trouble everywhere he goes. He won't be at peace if he doesn't cause trouble for three days. Now, everyone knows his origins."
Song Hong saw that Zhang Yan didn't understand and wanted to make friends with him, so he moved closer and explained a few words in a low voice.
Only then did Zhang Yan find out that this Elder Yan actually had a very preposterous son. When he was young, he ran into the mountains to subdue demons and subdue devils, but he fell in love with a female clan elder of the Bird Demon Tribe. They got married in the mountains and gave birth to this child.
Elder Yan felt that he didn't have the face to meet his parents, but he still sent his half-human half-demon son to their doorstep.
As a result, Elder Yan didn't chase him out and still raised him at home. However, this child grew up in the Demon Tribe and was used to having a wild temperament. In the Yan Residence, he would be rebutted with just a few words from the elders. After a long time, no one came to control him anymore, so he developed a lawless and undisciplined temperament.
Yan Duo didn't expect that today was the old ancestor's birthday feast, but this child would actually cause such a ruckus and become a joke to outsiders for no reason. For a moment, he stood there trembling all over. In the end, he shouted, "My Yan Clan doesn't have a grandson like you!"
The short and fat Taoist grinned and said, "If that's the case, then let me slap you to death with one palm. A life for a life!" After saying that, he seriously slammed his palm down.
When Yan Duo saw this, he was immediately shocked and angry. He just said those words out of anger, and this was his father's birthday feast. How could he let his own grandson be killed at a birthday feast? He didn't expect this Taoist to be so serious that he dared to let go, so he hurriedly rushed over to stop him.
Who knew that at this moment, the Taoist's eyes flashed with a hint of slyness. His hand suddenly flipped out an ancient bronze mirror the size of a golden basin. He only waved it at Yan Duo, and a green light was released, sucking him in. Immediately after, he picked up the red-haired youth and turned around to leave.
"Not good!"
Song Hong was immediately shocked. As a major disciple of the Lin Qing Sect, he had always been on good terms with the Beichen Sect. Seeing this scene, of course, he couldn't just watch from the sidelines. He opened his mouth and spat out a flickering yellow light. At the front was a small jade battle-axe that tore through the air. In a flash, it caught up to the Taoist.
The short and fat Taoist let out a strange laugh. With a shake of his sleeve, a cluster of shattered stars scattered in all directions. Flames that resembled charcoal scattered in all directions.
The small jade battle-axe trembled in the air when it was splashed by the charcoal. Its spiritual light suddenly dimmed, and it fell to the ground with a thud.
When the two of them exchanged blows, Yan Xiyue also reacted at the same time. With a delicate shout, a nimble white fox flew out from her sleeve and pounced towards the Taoist's face.
The short and fat Taoist laughed and blew out a breath of air. The white fox immediately whimpered as if it had been struck by a hammer and fell to the ground.
When Song Hong saw this, he said in shock, "A Core Formation cultivator?"
A green light flashed through the Taoist's eyes. He shouted coldly, "Originally, I didn't want to implicate others, but since you've delivered yourselves to my doorstep, then don't blame I for what I'm about to do."
He flipped the ancient mirror and shot out a beam of light towards Yan Xiyue. Yan Xiyue's expression changed. When she fought with others, she always released spirit birds and beasts. Her own strength wasn't actually that great, so she couldn't dodge in time. When that beam of light shone on her, she was sucked in just like Yan Duo.
Afterwards, that beam of light shone towards Song Hong. When Song Hong saw the Taoist raise his hand, he immediately turned around to dodge. However, that beam of light followed him in the blink of an eye, and when it shone on him, he was also sucked in.
The beam of light circled around the hall. In just a short moment, apart from Zhang Yan, everyone else in the front hall had been sucked in.
However, it was unknown what this Taoist had done, but the people outside were completely unaware of the battle taking place here.
When Zhang Yan saw that the beam of light shone towards him again, he sneered and transformed into a rainbow. In an instant, he broke through the roof and fled. When the beam of light moved forward again, it was too late to catch up.
The short and fat Taoist frowned and thought to himself, "This junior actually used a sword escape technique. Forget it, I'll let him go. If I don't leave now, I won't be afraid if Old Devil Yan runs out, but if I provoke the two Yuanying elders who are cultivating in seclusion in the Northstar Sect, I won't be able to escape."
Thinking of this, he transformed into a beam of light and rushed into the sky. He shouted from above the clouds, "Yan Zhengting, if you want to find your son, come find me at the Eastern Sea's White Sky Demon King!"
