Because he was very unfamiliar, when he said such a name, he subconsciously felt that he was a nobody.
The reason why his expression changed so much was because when he subconsciously muttered the three words "An Zijin", a powerful existence immediately flashed in his mind.
An Zijin, a genius disciple of one of the Southern Region's Ten Great Schools, the Cloud Passing School. It was said that he was a genius rarely seen in the Cloud Passing School for several hundred years. Four or five years ago, he, who was only sixteen, already reached the second level of the Martial Lord realm.
Four or five years ago, he already had such strength. Now, his strength reaching the late stage of the Martial Lord realm was not something surprising.
That wasn't even much. It was said that last year, he, who had schemed for several years, entered a certain Secret Realm. After experiencing untold hardships, he actually obtained the Hidden Lightning Spiritual Fire that could be ranked in the top eight of the Southern Region's Spirit Fire Ranking List.
It was said that even if the Hidden Lightning Fire met a Spiritual Fire ranked in front of it, it would not be at a disadvantage.
Not only was his realm high, he even obtained a Spiritual Fire like that. It was like adding wings to a tiger! It could be said that the hearts of the young geniuses in the Southern Region trembled when they heard his name.
However, since An Zijin kept an extremely low profile, and after shocking the world at the age of sixteen, he never showed his face in front of anyone. So, basically no one in the Southern Region knew what he looked like.
It was said that even the disciples who had lived in the Cloud Passing School for five or six years had never seen his true appearance.
Precisely because of that, after Zhou Peng's astonishment, he quickly asked, "You're An Zijin from the Cloud Passing School?"
"I am!" The other person proudly said.
"That's impossible, right?" Zhou Peng looked at him with a bit of disbelief.
It was because he heard that An Zijin was not interested in women. The people who were close to him had never seen him interact with any women, so it was impossible for him to participate in the joust for a spouse.
Another reason was that the relationship between the Cloud Passing School and the Song family was not very good. If An Zijin truly came to participate in the joust for a spouse, Song Ze would absolutely not allow it.
Another most important reason was that the person's strength seemed to be at most at the peak of the Martial Master realm. How could he possibly be the exceptional genius An Zijin?
"Nothing is impossible." The person indifferently said those words.
As soon as he finished speaking, the other party suddenly moved. He directly sent a palm toward Zhou Peng.
His opponent's Strength Qi was clearly burning with a white flame, but this was not what Zhou Peng was afraid of. What terrified him was that when his opponent's Strength Qi attacked, there was a faint sound of thunder in the void.
Immediately after, several bolts of lightning immediately attached themselves to the other party's energy.
"You really are An Zijin!" Zhou Peng exclaimed.
Thinking about how An Zijin possessed the Hidden Thunder Flame, how could Zhou Peng still doubt his words?
At this moment, he naturally understood that he hadn't seen through his opponent's strength at all.
How could he dare to be careless? Instead, he used his full strength.
In the next moment, a rune sword suddenly appeared in front of him, and it met the palm attack of the other party.
With a loud explosion, the two forces collided together.
Then, Zhou Peng consecutively took seven or eight steps back. On the other hand, An Zijin did not move at all.
Although there was such a gap, Zhou Peng's heart relaxed because his opponent didn't seem to have the ability to kill him immediately. If he could hold on for a while, he would have a chance to escape when the people searching for the Nine Orifice Green Hell Ganoderma heard the commotion and rushed over.
At this moment, Zhou Peng frowned and asked, "An Zijin, I have no grievances with you. Why did you attack me?"
The other party attacked him without asking for the reason, which made him feel a little strange.
"Naturally, it's for the Nine Orifice Green Hell Ganoderma." The other party said indifferently.
"Even if you kill me, you may not be able to find the Nine Orifice Green Hell Ganoderma." Zhou Peng said gloomily.
"I'll naturally get the ganoderma after killing you and the people nearby," An Zijin said.
This An Zijin most likely had a way to find the Nine Orifice Green Hell Ganoderma. Seeing An Zijin so confident, Zhou Peng couldn't help but think.
However, no matter what brilliant method the other party had, Zhou Peng didn't dare to have any ideas about the Nine Orifice Green Hell Ganoderma.
However, at this moment, he still couldn't help but ask, "Qi Yuanming and Guo Shaoqing have already fallen into your hands?"
"That's right." An Zijin said without hesitation.
Seeing An Zijin reply so straightforwardly, and then thinking of the voice he heard just now, Zhou Peng's heart immediately went cold.
Because since the other party could finish off the two of them so quickly, he most likely still had some trump card that he hadn't used yet.
How could he still dare to stay where he was? With a kick, he immediately wanted to turn around and escape.
Unexpectedly, An Zijin's movements were incomparably fast. Before his body even moved, An Zijin had already slapped another palm over.
Helpless, Zhou Peng could only brace himself and swing his sword to meet the other party.
What made Zhou Peng heave a sigh of relief was that the other party's force seemed to be incomparably different from before. If that was the case, he would naturally be able to block this attack.
However, after the force hit, his expression immediately changed greatly.
This was because at this moment, the surrounding void suddenly sounded even more densely packed thunder. Immediately after, an obvious amount of white lightning suddenly flashed in the void and attacked Zhou Peng.
These lightning were mixed with endless power, how could Zhou Peng block it? Before he could come back to his senses, his sword qi had already been completely destroyed by the lightning.
Seeing that Zhou Peng was about to be hit by the lightning, countless runes suddenly appeared on his body. These runes in the blink of an eye formed a set of armor to protect his body.
"Crackle, crackle …"
With such a sound, the lightning struck the set of armor.
After a muffled groan, Zhou Peng was directly hit and sent flying more than a hundred feet away.
"Puff …"
After crashing into a tree, he directly spat out a mouthful of blood.
An Zijin's attack was unknown how many times stronger than Guo Shaoqing's, so such a blow directly caused him to be seriously injured.
"Hmm?"
A look of surprise flashed in An Zijin's eyes, but how could he give Zhou Peng a chance to breathe?
Zhou Peng's figure had just landed, and his figure was already moving again.
Looking at An Zijin who was shooting over, Zhou Peng's expression became even uglier.
Although his rune armor could block the other party's attack, this rune armor was a consumable item. Every time it was used, the next defense would immediately drop by a level.
In other words, how could he withstand An Zijin's next attack?
But what could he do now?
He could only grit his teeth, once again stimulate the Celestial Qi in his body, and then brandish his sword to meet the other party.
Even if he knew that he would lose, he could not give up resisting.
"Crackle, crackle …"
The lightning from before appeared in the void again.
An Zijin's force carried these lightning bolts and attacked Zhou Peng in front of him.
