Chapter 49
Forcing with a Blade
Hearing Guo Lie's words, Zhang Yan smiled and did not speak. Putting aside the truth of these words, he could hear a lot of jealousy in them.
But thinking about it carefully, it was not without reason.
Guo Lie claimed to have fought with Shen Ming many times, but they were all evenly matched. This Fu Yuqing was his martial nephew, if he won this time, wouldn't it show that he was useless?
However, Zhang Yan also had his own plans. If Fu Yuqing were to be defeated, he would not hesitate to step forward and fight.
Not only was the Chongyue True Temple the sharpening stone that he had chosen for himself, but he could also return the favor. Why not?
At this time, Dai Huan rode on a light and arrived outside the treasure pavilion, looking at the Vermillion Bird Token in his hand. He thought it was a pity, "I'm just staying here for a few days to reattach my broken arm, senior brother, why did you give this away? Giving it to someone else and not thinking of your own senior brother. "
He raised his head and saw a fierce-looking man guarding the door, looking like a servant. He was a third generation disciple under Tao Zhenhong's tutelage, and he'd inherited the cultivation technique of the Southern Flower Sect. So he was naturally able to discern with a single glance that this person was a demon that had taken human form. So he immediately became blunt and shouted. "Where's your Master?"
Zhang Pan was startled and answered honestly, "He is in the yard."
Dai Huan flicked his sleeves and was about to step inside when Zhang Pan hurriedly stopped him, "Honorable guest, please tell me why you are here so I can go in and report."
Dai Huan already had a knot in his heart, and hearing this, he became even more unhappy, thinking why did a little demon like you come to stop me? He snorted and secretly formed a technique, gathering qi in his eyes, then he looked at Zhang Pan.
This technique was passed down from Nanhua Sect's Demon Subduing Technique, it was used to subdue demons. When Zhang Pan made eye contact with that gaze, he felt two rays of light penetrate into his mind, and for some reason, he fell to the ground in a daze.
Dai Huan laughed mockingly and stepped inside. Who would have thought that she had only taken half a step when she heard a cold snort by her ear. She felt a tightness in her chest and couldn't help but take two steps back. Zhang Pan also seemed to wake up with this sound.
Dai Huan couldn't help but be shocked. She raised her head and saw Guo Lie walking out with a gloomy expression, and she couldn't help but be slightly anxious in her heart. She braced herself and bowed. "Martial Uncle."
Guo Lie's expression was very ugly as he scolded, "Bastard brat, do you think your sect's methods are for you to bully people here? When you get back, use the Saber Sharpening Incantation a hundred times! If you miss one, I'll punish you tenfold! "
Dai Huan shuddered. Once the Saber Sharpening Incantation was activated, he would feel unbearable pain all over his body. It was a technique used by the sect to temper the disciples' willpower. Normally, ten rounds would cause one to faint from the pain. Wouldn't a hundred rounds be enough to kill him? However, he didn't dare to disobey. With a bitter expression, he said, "Yes, Martial Uncle."
Guo Lie then cupped his hands towards the back and said, "Brother Zhang, for my sake, please spare him this once."
It was impossible to tell whether Zhang Yan's voice was happy or angry as he said, "Fellow Daoist Dai, come in."
Guo Lie fiercely glared at Dai Huan again and said, "You're on your own." Then he turned around and left.
Dai Huan wiped the cold sweat off his forehead and walked into the courtyard. He saw Zhang Yan standing in front of the window with his back facing him, looking at something. He didn't know why, but he actually felt a little uneasy in his heart. He stepped forward and cupped his hands, saying, "Fellow Daoist Zhang, just now my sect's Senior Brother came. With him here, there's no need to trouble Fellow Daoist this time. However, my Senior Brother still needs to borrow Fellow Daoist's sea boat to recuperate for a few days, so he ordered me to deliver an item. I hope Fellow Daoist will kindly accept it."
Zhang Yan turned around. He took a look at the Vermillion Bird Token and didn't stand on ceremony. With a wave of his hand, he put it away into his sleeve and said indifferently, "I already understand Fellow Daoist Fu's intention. You guys are also going the same way, so I can give you a ride. Fellow Daoist Dai, please go and tell him to recuperate well."
Dai Huan secretly heaved a sigh of relief. He didn't want to stay any longer, so he cupped his hands and left.
Zhang Yan thought, This Zhang Pan will follow me from now on. If I'm not here, this sea boat will still need his care. It's just that his cultivation is too low and he can't even control the sea boat, so he can only do some manual work. Why don't I teach him a technique? I originally wanted to find an opportunity, but now is just the right time.
Thinking of this, he called out, "Zhang Pan, come in."
Outside the door, Zhang Pan heard this and hurriedly walked in with his head lowered. There was some fear on his face as he said, "Master, I …"
Zhang Yan interrupted him and said, "Listen carefully. If you don't want to be bullied in the future, then practice the technique I teach you. Listen carefully."
Zhang Pan was startled at first, but then he was overjoyed. He hurriedly pricked up his ears and listened attentively, not daring to miss a single word.
Zhang Yan's lips moved as he repeated the first half of the technique on the True Scroll of the Hornless Dragon five times. Seeing that Zhang Pan had memorized it, he finally stopped and said, "This technique can be considered a profound technique. Go back and practice it well. Whether you can master it or not will depend on your own luck."
Zhang Pan hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed, crying, "Zhang Pan thanks Master. I can't repay the kindness of passing on this technique even with my life."
Zhang Yan nodded slightly and said, "Practice by yourself. If you have any questions, come and ask me again."
When he finished speaking, he turned into a ray of light and returned to the main pavilion. He sat on the jade chair and activated the talisman. The Dragon Country's ship rose into the air and flew towards Hong 'an Island.
A few days later, a misty light appeared in his quiet room. After refining it for a long time, the Seven Star Sun Binding Robe was completed. With a whistling sound, it flew out from the treasure light and turned into a black Daoist robe that spread out in the air. There were runes and lines on the robe, as well as the sun, moon, and stars, faintly hiding the workings of the heavens.
After the robe floated for a while, it retracted its light and fell onto Zhang Yan's body, wrapping around him.
Zhang Yan stretched his arms and legs and found that the robe fit him perfectly. Moreover, it looked the same as the Daoist robe he was wearing before. Even if Xiao Han were to come back to life, he wouldn't be able to see through it. He couldn't help but nod in satisfaction. With the protection of this treasured robe and his body that was stronger than steel, there was no one in the same generation who could hurt him.
The ship traveled in the northwest direction for another seven to eight days. On this day, it was raining cats and dogs. Dai Huan and the others looked out from the restriction and saw that the sea was turbulent and the waves were towering. However, they were safe and sound here, without the slightest ripple.
Dai Huan couldn't help but say enviously, "Senior Martial Brother Fu, we usually ride cranes and eagles in the wind and rain. Sometimes, we have to avoid the evil clouds as soon as we see them, lest we get sucked into them. But with this ship in hand, we don't have to worry about that. Senior Martial Uncle Guo really has a good eye. I wonder how he got to know this Fellow Daoist Zhang."
Fu Yuqing snorted coldly and said, "The founding master set the rule of riding spirit birds to cross the sea to train the disciples' temperament. We are just a temporary measure here. You must not be greedy for a moment of comfort and slack off! "
Dai Huan hurriedly said in a low voice, "Yes, Senior Martial Brother."
Four hours later, when it was almost noon, the sky was finally clear and the clouds had dispersed. The sun was still shining brightly and they could see a few islands dotting the sea from afar.
Junior Martial Sister Wei who was standing at the side said, "Senior Martial Brother, there is someone blocking the way in front. Looking at their clothes, they must have reached the territory of Chongyue True Temple."
Fu Yuqing nodded and said to Dai Huan, "Junior Martial Brother Dai, take my visitation card and go."
Dai Huan replied, "Yes!" He stood up and left the flying ship.
This Chongyue True Temple occupied a sea province on the sea and also occupied more than eighty spiritual islands and scattered reefs. It had more than a thousand disciples and was one of the big sects in the outer sea. This place was called Ox Horn Island and it was one of the outermost islands.
There were people on the island who had already noticed this ship, so they went forward to stop it. When they saw Dai Huan coming out, a conveyance light stopped in front of him and shouted, "Who are you? How dare you trespass on my Ox Horn Island? "
Dai Huan took a closer look and saw that it was a young man in blue who had a pair of sharp eyes like an eagle. He carefully said, "I'm from Clear Feather Sect and I'm under the order of my Senior Martial Brother Fu Yuqing to send a visitation card and wish to meet with Fellow Daoist Shen Minggu."
This young man in blue had never heard of Clear Feather Sect but he had heard of Fu Yuqing's name. He had a strange expression and took a look at the visitation card. He sneered in his heart. Looking at the handwriting, it was like a dragon and a snake, sharp and glaring, filled with murderous intent. How was this a visitation card? It was clearly a challenge card. When he thought of the rumors from the past two days, he instantly understood.
He thought to himself, "I heard that Senior Martial Brother Shen defeated two disciples from the big sects in a row and was praised by a few old fellows. If this goes on, he will overshadow me sooner or later. I heard that this Fu Yuqing is an outstanding talent among the three generations of disciples under Tao Zhenhong. If I take him down, I will definitely be able to suppress his prestige! I've been looked down upon by those old fellows. "
The young man in blue rolled his eyes and waved at Dai Huan. He smiled and said, "Come with me."
Dai Huan did not suspect anything and followed him. After walking for a short distance, the young man suddenly turned around and smiled at him. He opened a wooden box in his hand and a black gas flew out from it. He did not know why, but when he was hit by the black gas, he felt dizzy and fainted.
The young man grabbed his collar and laughed before flying toward Dragon Country's flying ship.
When he got close, he threw Dai Huan onto the ship and pointed with his finger. A flying knife appeared out of nowhere and stuck to Dai Huan's throat. He shouted, "Which arrogant guy wants to fight with my Senior Martial Brother Shen?"
A rainbow light flew out and Fu Yuqing landed in front of him. He said with a livid expression, "It's me. Who are you and why are you holding my Junior Martial Brother hostage?"
The young man in blue laughed and said, "Listen well, I'm Xu Cuo, a true disciple of Chongyue True Temple. I heard that you, Fu Yuqing, want to meet my Senior Martial Brother Shen, so I came here. If you can defeat me, it won't be too late to meet him."
Fu Yuqing's expression changed and his expression became serious. He said, "You're Xu Cuo?"
Xu Cuo saw that Fu Yuqing seemed to have heard of him and immediately became happy. He said, "Not bad, not bad. It's me."
Fu Yuqing said with a sullen expression, "Although I also want to meet you, my Junior Martial Brother is in Shen Minggu's hands. If you can make the decision, why can't I fight you?"
Xu Cuo laughed and waved his hand. He said, "Don't talk nonsense. Today, you have to fight whether you want to or not. Otherwise, I'll kill your fellow disciple!"
He pointed with his finger and the flying knife instantly cut into half of Dai Huan's neck. Blood instantly flowed.
