There were talisman patterns flashing on the surface of the petals, as if they were forming an intricate formation.
It was precisely Yan Zhaoge's current target, the Cloud Array Spirit Flower.
However, Yan Zhaoge's attention was currently not on that spirit flower, instead smiling coldly at the person opposite him.
Across from them stood a group of people, led by a young man, who was dressed in the style of the Northern Lands.
With just a single glance, Yan Zhaoge recognised their origins. The Thunder Domain's Yan Family, their ancestral ground in the Zhaozhou of the Thunder Domain, one of the few powers beneath the Heavenly Thunder Hall of the Thunder Domain. In the post-Great Calamity Eight Extremities World, they were also one of the great families with the longest history.
The Central Heaven Region's Yan Family of the Heaven Domain that Yan Zhaoge hailed from had split off from the Zhao Region's Yan Family of the Thunder Domain that year.
But back then, the two sides were extremely unhappy.
Afterwards, when Yan Zhaoge's family had migrated from the Thunder Domain to the Heaven Domain, they had encountered a great tribulation, which was not unrelated to the Zhao Region of the Thunder Domain's Yan Family.
At that time, Yan Di had still been young, while his parents had perished in that great calamity.
Therefore, when the two of them met now, it wasn't because they were old friends from different places or because they were related by blood. Instead, it was because they were enemies and their eyes were burning with hatred.
Having come to this world, Yan Zhaoge did not have any particularly direct personal feelings towards the Zhao Region Yans of the Thunder Domain. It was just that since the other party had not cared about their blood relations and had gone to such lengths to kill them, he naturally did not have any psychological burden in coming into conflict with them.
Moreover, Yan Zhaoge's current identity had already determined his stance.
And the people of the Zhao Region's Yan Family before him clearly did not come with good intentions. In that case, there was even less need for Yan Zhaoge to be polite.
"Young Master, they intended to snatch the Spirit Flower. This subordinate is useless and failed to defend it. If Young Master had not arrived in time, I would not have been able to stop them," the black-clothed cultivator said as he struggled to stand up and wipe the blood from the corner of his mouth.
Yan Zhaoge said, "It's fine. You have performed meritorious service in guarding the place. You have been injured in the line of duty; there is no need to blame yourselves."
"As for them …" Yan Zhaoge chuckled, his hands behind his back as he strode forward.
As he stepped forward, the people on the other side felt as if a huge mountain was moving towards them.
The people of the Zhao Region Yans also felt a bit of a headache, not having thought that Yan Zhaoge and Ah Hu would arrive so quickly.
The leading youth said, "I recognise you, Yan Zhaoge."
"This spirit flower is ownerless, not having been nurtured by your Broad Creed Mountain. If you want to take it, we won't stop you. However, the two of them are not of Broad Creed Mountain, only servants of your Central Continent's Yan Family. On what basis can they stop us from plucking the spirit flower?"
"The servants of the branch family were rude to the son of the main family's first wife. It is my duty to teach them a lesson. Could it be that you want to fight me because of them?"
Hearing his words, Yan Zhaoge shook his head rather amusedly.
They didn't see how he moved, but the other party only saw a blur in front of their eyes and the sound of wind. In the next instant, the young man was sent flying backward.
On the young man's right cheek, there was a shocking "Five Fingers Mountain" mark.
The mark was as red as blood, like a birthmark tattoo. It clearly told everyone how he had been knocked down.
Yan Zhaoge said mildly, "If you are not awake, I will help you awake. The Zhao Zhou Yan and the Central Heaven Region Yan have long since been two different families, not some so-called main family and branch family."
"You hit my people, so I hit you. What do I care about whether you're of the main family or not?"
An old man hurriedly helped the young man up, swivelling his head to glare at Yan Zhaoge, "Yan Zhaoge, you have forgotten your ancestry. I want to see what Yan Di has to say about this!"
"Don't forget that your name was originally destined to be your root!"
Yan Zhaoge laughed. He had indeed never thought that in this world, there would also be a saying like 'Yan and Zhao have many sorrowful warriors'.
The land of Yan and Zhao of the Eight Extremities World referred to the You Region and the Zhao Region of the Thunder Domain's Six Region. The You Region was also known as the Yan Region.
"Since when has the Zhao Region Yan Family been able to represent the land of Yan and Zhao? You are the ones who have lost face for Yan and Zhao. "
Yan Zhaoge raised his brows, "If my Central Heaven Region Yan Family indeed has to make a trip back to the land of Yan and Zhao, it is not to visit relatives, but to settle scores."
"What your Zhao Region Yan Family did that year, you are not clear on, but the higher echelon elders of your family are very clear on it."
His hands behind his back, Yan Zhaoge said mildly, "If I were to settle these scores with you, you probably wouldn't even understand what is going on. I also can't be bothered to lower myself to your level."
"But having beaten up my people, you want to leave just like that? Those who used your hands, leave your hands; those who used your feet, leave your feet. If you don't realise it yourself, there will be plenty of people who will help you. "
Ah Hu bared his teeth in a smile, his expression rather savage as he resembled a ferocious tiger that was about to devour its prey, causing one to tremble in fear.
Figures flickered in the surroundings, many black-clothed martial practitioners appearing.
That old man said hatefully, "Who do you think you are beating up? This is the direct descendant of our Family Head, Young Master Min! "
Yan Zhaoge chortled, "A name beside the 'door' ah. That should indeed be the direct descendant of this generation of the Zhao Region Yan Family. However, this level is really too low. Before speaking, can you not even clearly see the situation you are in?"
"However low his level, it is also not something that a bastard son of a branch family like you can discuss. Before you speak, you had best first understand your own identity."
Now, a voice resounded from the distance.
Yan Zhaoge asked lazily, "Is it Yan Shan?"
Yan Min, with a bloodred palm print on his face, was still dizzy and in a daze. The old man beside him and the other Zhao Region Yan Family martial practitioners all had joyous looks on their faces, "Young Master Shan is here!"
A streak of lightning flashed past, and in an instant, a youth who looked to be around twenty-six or twenty-seven years of age appeared on the snowy peak. His features were somewhat similar to Yan Min's, but his aura was much, much stronger.
This youth's expression was sharp, his gaze like lightning, an illusory spiritual light shooting straight into the horizon above his head. He was shockingly a Xiantian Martial Scholar.
Yan Zhaoge's expression did not change in the slightest as he looked nonchalantly at the other party, "Yan Shan, you also seem to be a little dazed, making people feel that under your great reputation, it is hard to live up to it."
Although this was his first time meeting him in person, unlike Yan Min, Yan Zhaoge was extremely familiar with the Yan Shan before him.
The most outstanding martial genius of this generation of the Zhao Region Yan Family.
Not only had he been groomed by the Yan Family with all their might, he was also a core, direct disciple of the Thunder Domain's Heavenly Thunder Hall, an elite of the younger generation.
The Heavenly Thunder Hall's Heaven's favoured son, the Thunder Rumbling Young Master Lin Zhou alongside Yan Zhaoge, was known as' Lightning Flashing Thunder Rumbling 'together with Yan Shan, dominating martial practitioners of the same generation of the Thunder Domain.
Yan Shan's gaze was fixated on Yan Zhaoge.
Snatching the flower and beating people up was actually something he had instructed Yan Min and the others to do, just that he himself had some matters to attend to just now and had to leave for a bit.
Yan Shan was older, having cultivated for a longer period of time. Originally, his cultivation base had been much higher than Yan Zhaoge's, and he had never thought much of Yan Zhaoge.
However, in recent days, Yan Shan had been feeling very vexed. The Thunder Rumbling Young Master Lin Zhou who had always been equally matched with him, his cultivation base suddenly rising, actually leaving him behind, caused Yan Shan to feel depressed to the extreme.
And it just so happened that Yan Zhaoge's fame had also risen in recent years, his cultivation base advancing by leaps and bounds, his battle achievements outstanding.
After learning that Yan Zhaoge had sent people to guard the Cloud Array Spirit Flower, Yan Shan could no longer suppress the evil fire within his heart, instructing Yan Min to spoil Yan Zhaoge's plans.
Because of the news released by Infinite Boundless Mountain, the Heavenly Thunder Hall had originally already found Yan Zhaoge to be an eyesore.
As a direct disciple of the Heavenly Thunder Hall as well as a direct descendant of the Zhao Region Yan Family, Yan Shan hated Yan Zhaoge even more.
Looking at Yan Zhaoge, Yan Shan said coldly, "That year, I exiled this branch of yours, but one stroke cannot write two 'Yan' characters. Your Central Heaven Region Yan, will forever be a branch of my Zhao Region Yan."
"Let alone you, even your father Yan Di, even if he ascends to the position of Broad Creed Mountain's Chief, he would still be someone who walked out of Zhao Region Yan."
