Chapter 421: The Xia Lord

Yet, it was at this very moment.

Boom!

At the entrance of the Luo family estate, a sudden explosion rang out.

A group of high-ranking members stood up.

Luo Wensang's expression was terrifyingly gloomy, and murderous intent surfaced in his eyes.

"They're at it again. These animals truly have no regard for their own lives!"

He let out a low roar.

During this period, the entire Qinzhou was being influenced by Chen Yan.

Many local residents of Yixian City had formed groups and come directly to the Luo family estate.

At first, it was just angry shouting; later, they began throwing feces, and starting a few days ago, people began throwing bombs.

"Family Head..." a high-ranking Luo family member spoke hesitantly.

Luo Wensang spoke in a low voice:

"Kill them."

Everyone was shocked. In the past, the Luo family had always endured it; why were they resorting to killing now?

"Their master, Chen Yan, is about to be finished, yet these animals are still here courting death. Make it clean!"

Luo Wensang roared. He was clearly drunk and, at this moment, acting lawlessly.

But who cared?

Immediately.

Someone went out.

Before the Luo family estate, a group of people was still gathered.

This group of people, one by one, had flushed faces and glared at the person who emerged.

"The Luo family is a tumor of the Great Xia!"

"The Xia Clan and the Luo family are both tumors!"

Roars resounded one after another, and everyone glared at that Luo family expert.

This Luo family expert's expression was ugly.

Naturally, he would not take Luo Wensang's drunken words as an order, but that did not mean he wouldn't be angry.

After years of arrogance, if the pigs in a pigsty started roaring at you, would you not be angry?

Immediately, he was enraged.

"Get lost!!!"

The Luo family member roared, and in an instant, a wave of pressure descended.

Whoosh!

The group of people was blasted away by his pressure just like that.

Some spat blood directly and collapsed to the ground.

"Grandma!"

A young woman screamed, not expecting the Luo family to actually strike this time.

"Good!" the old person who had spat blood roared:

"I don't have many years left to live. Kill me! Kill me, and I can at least be considered to have offered my blood to the heavens!"

The old person glared at the Luo family expert.

The Luo family expert's expression shifted slightly; this person was truly insane.

He roared:

"You have all been brainwashed by that Chen Yan. Even the Xia Clan doesn't care about him; could it be that the Xia Clan is wrong?

Look at Chen Yan; it is Prince Xia Chen who is now enforcing the law impartially to suppress and kill him. What are you people trying to do?!"

His voice boomed as he began to trade insults with this group of people.

From inside the Luo family estate, a low roar suddenly came:

"Kill them all!!!"

Killing intent soared to the heavens!

The Luo family expert was greatly alarmed; Luo Wensang was completely drunk.

The group of citizens also turned deathly pale at this moment.

High above the clouds.

Within a hidden space.

A woman in a green dress stood quietly. She was stunningly beautiful, her green dress like the emerald of a tourmaline, fresh and pure, the hem of the dress swaying lightly.

She just watched everything happening below in silence.

No one sensed her; no one discovered her.

Her existence seemed to pierce through time and space, like an immortal deity gazing down upon the earth.

"Has the Great Xia decayed to such a degree?" the woman murmured, her brows furrowing.

It was also at this moment.

A communication came through, and the voice of the Land Master rang out:

"Jianxia, go to Tiezhou to rendezvous with Prince Xia Chen."

"Understood." The woman murmured:

"It is my fault. If I had gone to Xiaoyang, Lu Fusang would not have died."

Master Lu sighed lightly: "It is time, it is fate; however, being able to bring Chen Yan back can also be considered a good thing. That Chen Yan's Dao of Will can be well excavated."

The woman named Lu Jianxia nodded her fair chin slightly, and she looked down again:

"The Xia Clan is already beyond saving. The supreme prodigies of recent years are all from the Five Clans, whether it be Chen Yan or Lu Xunyang."

She shook her head slightly.

Chen Yan, in her view, had value even above Lu Xunyang, but such a genius was actually not protected by the Xia Clan.

Although she was of the Lu Clan, she was not an ignorant person.

Chen Yan had immense potential for cultivation.

But if Chen Yan entered the Lu Clan, all that would be left for Chen Yan would be endless destruction and research.

She would not cultivate an enemy.

But she still felt it was a pity.

"Father, after I sweep through the Luo Family, I will head to Tie Province," Lu Jianxia said:

"The Luo Family is a good gathering place for precious medicinal herbs."

Inside the array disk, Master Lu gave a soft hum.

Yet at this very moment.

Lu Jianxia's gaze suddenly flashed, and her vermilion lips parted slightly as she looked into the distance:

"How is that possible!?"

"What is it?" Master Lu asked.

"This... the Xia Lord Sword has appeared!" Lu Jianxia exclaimed, her pair of silver-white pupils looking toward the distance.

On that earth, the Luo Family experts and citizens who were still arguing were all stunned in unison.

At this moment, everyone was looking toward the giant cloud-mist silver screen in the center of Yixian City.

Yet they saw, upon this silver screen.

A pitch-black great sword appeared above Xiaoyang City.

It hung just like that above the Thunder Hourglass, its sword tip pointing to the ground!

The great sword looked as if it were carved from black jade, the deep black seemingly able to swallow all light.

The blade emitted a biting cold gleam, the sword spine was thick and powerful, and mysterious runes flowed faintly across the sword body!

The Xia Lord Sword!

The number one divine artifact under heaven, the strongest existence protecting the Great Xia.

It can slay a Ninth Rank!

Now, it had actually appeared at the Thunder-Striken Treasure Land!

What did this mean?

It meant that the significance represented by that Thunder-Striken Treasure Land would shake the world!

Master Lu was also silent, shocked.

What exactly was the Xia Clan doing?

"You were right not to go to Xiaoyang City; I cannot see through that Thunder-Striken Treasure Land either!" Master Lu said in a low voice.

Lu Jianxia's complexion turned slightly pale, and she nodded.

She also wanted to ask, what exactly was the Lu Clan trying to do?

The Star Order, the World Proclamation, and now this Xia Lord Sword had all appeared!

"After I clear out the Luo Family, I will leave immediately!" Lu Jianxia said.

"Mm," the Xia Lord nodded.

Yet at this very moment.

Lu Jianxia's brows furrowed again, and she looked downward.

Two figures suddenly streaked across the cloudy sky; they were two masked figures.

One was surging with flames all over, the other was overflowing with cold intent.

"This..." Lu Jianxia was stunned.

Yet in the next moment.

The youth overflowing with cold intent reached out one hand, and wisps of pitch-black thunder and cold air spilled out, transforming into a long spear.

As he threw it with one hand.

Boom!

Lightning and cold light exploded across the horizon, instantly slamming into the Luo Family, erupting with countless bolts of electricity and ice crystals!

In an instant, more than a dozen Luo Family military guards were blasted to death by the ice-thunder, flesh and blood splattering!

The entire Luo Family was instantly startled.

The Luo Family high-ranking members who were still arguing with citizens at the Luo Family gate stiffened.

The Yixian City citizens who were still roaring one by one all ceased their movements.

Lu Jianxia narrowed her eyes.

Yet she saw two slender figures, one ice and one fire, appear before the Luo Family, their auras powerful.

One person spoke, their voice grand and filled with majesty:

"The Luo Family is cruel and boundless, sucking the flesh and blood of the world. Today, the two of us act on behalf of Heaven to eliminate the Luo Family!"

Their voice was like a sword strike, carrying terrifying murderous intent.

The next instant, the two figures charged straight into the Luo Family, erupting with one after another terrifying roars!

After a moment of shock, the entire Luo Family reacted, and some began to roar.

"Enemy attack!"

"Guards, assemble!"

"You're courting death, kill them!!!"

The roars resounded, and the entire Luo Family was in chaos!

Outside the Luo Family, the crowd of citizens who had previously been suppressed burst into loud laughter.

"Retribution has arrived!"

"The Luo Family's retribution has arrived!"

"Well killed, well killed!!!"

Above the clouds, Lu Jianxia frowned as she watched, her gaze flickering over the two figures who had charged into the Luo Family.

The strength of these two was not considered powerful.

To her, everyone here was not strong.

But these two gave her a very strange feeling.

A heaven-gifted genius!

A supreme heaven-gifted genius!

Especially that person overflowing with thunder and ice.

Lu Jianxia narrowed her eyes:

"Father, I think I have encountered the second heaven-gifted genius of the current Great Xia to break their limits."

Inside the formation disk, the Lu Master was silent, but clearly also surprised.

The second heaven-gifted genius to break their limits?

One was Chen Yan, an immortal heaven-gifted genius of the horizontal tempering path.

Who would the other be?

The Lu Master pondered, his eyes flashing.

"It is that Bing Yi, and he has been disguising his strength all along; the thunder element on his body is far more powerful than the ice element!

Moreover, his thunderous Qi and blood have the feeling of my Lu Clan's Kun Secret Flowing Thunder!"

Lu Jianxia's eyes flickered slightly.

Bing Yi had actually appeared.

The other party seemed to be from Qinzhou, as he had always been deeply protected by the Tianjiu Fist Tournament.

In such a short time, this Bing Yi had become even more powerful.

He should also be at the Origin Realm, but he possessed the strength to battle those at the Sixth Rank!

"Could this Bing Yi have killed someone from my Lu Clan and absorbed the Kun Secret Flowing Thunder?" the Lu Master asked.

"It is also possible he purchased it," Lu Jianxia said.

A smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.

She had originally only wanted to simply loot the Luo Family, but she had not expected to encounter Bing Yi.

And there was also that martial artist overflowing with flames; his methods were so numerous that even she was incredibly surprised.

These two were both existences capable of rivaling Lu Fuxian!

No!

They exceeded him!

This Bing Yi was a heaven-gifted genius who had broken his limits, a genius of a different concept.

Lu Xunyang was a genius who had broken his limits, Chen Changyuan of the Fourth Crossing of the Golden Body was as well, Chen Yan even more so, and Bing Yi too!

As for the one overflowing with flames, his combat techniques were incredibly unique, and he had a very broad range of expertise in mental power, formations, horizontal tempering, and Qi and blood.

Moreover, he was clearly still hiding his methods!

Too genius!

Why would such a large number of geniuses appear in one Qinzhou?

"The Xia Clan is too vast; the probability of geniuses appearing is actually this high!"

Lu Jianxia was shocked.

What she had seen and heard over these past few days had directly caused a huge change in her perspective.

"I am changing my plan; if I can bring these two back to Luzhou..."

Lu Jianxia pondered.

Chen Yan would also be brought back to Qinzhou, but he was already an enemy of Luzhou and could not be used for important tasks, only for experiments.

But these two were different.

They had not become mortal enemies with the Lu Clan.

As Lu Jianxia pondered, the Lu Master spoke:

"Make your own plan, just pay attention to your safety."

"Understood," Lu Jianxia nodded.

She did not intend to capture them directly, but chose to wait until these two had finished their actions.

After all, she was currently here to spread goodwill.

Even if these two were not from Luzhou, so what?

Whether it was the Five Clans or Great Xia, they were all human, not alien races.

Lu Xunyang could come to Great Xia, and these two could also go to Luzhou.

In the great affairs of the world, diplomatic maneuvers are frequent; geniuses always need a platform more suitable for themselves.

The Xia Clan is too chaotic, too weak; they couldn't even protect a heaven-gifted talent like Chen Yan—how many hearts must this have chilled?

Below.

Chen Yan swept his spear horizontally, and the bodies of over a dozen Luo Clan guards exploded; immediately after, Chen Yan furrowed his brows.

He sensed an emotion.

A very faint, very imperceptible trace of emotion.

It was different from these Luo Clan members who were fighting him.

That emotion carried a trace of goodwill, as well as a trace of curiosity and an inexplicable sense of probing.

Who is it?

Chen Yan's heart tightened; if he hadn't been paying attention to his surroundings, he almost wouldn't have noticed.

Chen Yan looked into the distance and spoke to Jiang Yuan:

"I can't hold on anymore."

"Huh?" Jiang Yuan was stunned; what are you trying to do?

Yet he saw Chen Yan had already taken to the air, flying away from outside the Luo Clan.

"Seeking death!!!"

Low roars rang out one after another.

The Luo Clan's acting patriarch Luo Wensang and several Sixth-Rank martial artists instantly took to the air and flew toward Chen Yan.

They were thoroughly enraged.

How could anyone come to their place, cause such a death toll, and still be allowed to leave?

Jiang Yuan punched a Sixth-Rank into the air, watching Chen Yan's departing back, and frowned.

Chen Yan, what is he trying to do?

Or is it that he is luring away the strong enemies to secretly unleash his full strength and wipe them all out?

Jiang Yuan chuckled.

It's better that Chen Yan left; he still wanted to enter the Luo Clan base sooner.

Above the clouds.

Lu Jianxia frowned; that Ice Intent had flown away.

Should she go to save him?

The other party wouldn't necessarily die; after all, his teammate wasn't worried at all, but was instead still slaughtering.

Lu Jianxia fell into a dilemma for a moment: should she follow the Ice Intent, or continue to monitor this heaven-gifted talent who was overflowing with flames?

In the end, she did not follow the Ice Intent.

She believed the Ice Intent would return.

She was very intelligent and absolutely did not believe the Ice Intent had fled because he couldn't hold on.

Likely, he had his own plan to ambush and harm those who were hunting him.

Since the other party dared to come to the Luo Clan, he must have been well-prepared.

Therefore, he would definitely return.

High above the sky.

Chen Yan sensed the emotions in his surroundings, and his brows furrowed.

That trace of emotion did not follow him.

This indicated that the other party might not be someone protecting him, but they also didn't have much hostility toward him.

He kept dashing forward, while Luo Wensang and the others behind him were still in pursuit.

"Seeking death!"

"Stop!"

"You killed over a hundred of our Luo Clan members and still want to escape? I will definitely skin you and pull out your tendons!"

Luo Wensang roared, the smell of alcohol on his body completely dispersed.

He had to kill this person; if he couldn't, his position as acting patriarch would be stripped away.

Chen Yan flew all the way.

After flying for a full five hundred miles, Chen Yan was certain there was no one else here.

Subsequently, Chen Yan suddenly stopped and blasted a spear strike at Luo Wensang.

Boom!

Chen Yan erupted with Xun Thunder and Yin Stagnation; the spear strike, containing Eighth-Grade Spear Intent, was terrifying to the extreme.

Luo Wensang's eyes flashed, and he hurriedly dodged, but Chen Yan pressed forward, thrusting his spear to the side.

With a bang.

A Luo Clan Sixth-Rank had his head pierced through by Chen Yan's spear.

"You!" Luo Wensang trembled instantly; this person's strength had suddenly increased!

Chen Yan's strength had of course increased; he hadn't used his physical tempering, but he had unleashed all his power.

Three hundred and forty-one True Dragon Phases were power that transcended the concept of the Origin Realm.

Chen Yan's gaze was cold; he brandished his spear, blocking the attack of one Sixth-Rank while simultaneously kicking out, unleashing his Fist Realm directly into the opponent's body.

"How is his strength..."

A Sixth-Rank roared; struck by Chen Yan's kick, he felt his stomach had been kicked to shreds.

The remaining few Sixth-Ranks had cold gazes, but their breathing had become heavy.

They were all desperate men recruited by the Luo Clan, but at this moment, they also felt it was incredibly thorny.

"Attack together!"

A Rank 6 roared, and the next moment, Luo Wensang smashed a fist directly toward Chen Yan.

Chen Yan blocked horizontally with his spear and threw a punch, sending Luo Wensang vomiting blood.

"Are you Qi-Blood or Body Tempering!" Luo Wensang roared, only to see a Rank 6 already having its chest pierced through by Chen Yan, blood spraying wildly.

Chen Yan thrust his spear out, with Xun-Thunder and Yin-Stagnation erupting simultaneously, causing everyone nearby to change color.

They felt some regret, but at this moment, they still needed to continue the fight.

Someone swung a blade down, but Chen Yan grabbed the blade body directly with one hand; the fist intent vibrated, causing the blade itself to tremble.

"You!" That person was shocked and wanted to shout, but the next moment, the tip of Chen Yan's spear pierced through his eye and brain.

Chen Yan swung his spear, the heavy spear shadows forming a force almost like mountains toppling and seas overturning.

His spear intent could not kill a Rank 6.

But during the battle, he was quietly deploying his fist intent and the 【Condensing Radiance Style】.

Chen Yan only struck like this when he had approached the enemy; otherwise, there would be no element of surprise.

In the end, one Rank 6 after another fell, leaving only Luo Wensang alone.

Luo Wensang watched with a chill in his heart, feeling somewhat desperate now, and shouted:

"Good man!"

Chen Yan pierced the opponent's shoulder with his spear:

"Where is the place where your Luo Clan stores Malice Crystals and Malice Qi-Blood?"

Luo Wensang was stunned; he was about to cry.

Just this?

What are you doing?

If you wanted these useless things, I could have just given them to you!

Soon, after a round of questioning, Chen Yan blasted out with his spear.

Luo Wensang, dead!

Chen Yan flew toward the Luo Clan, even if that entity spying on the Luo Clan might still be there.

But Chen Yan had to obtain enough Malice Crystals.

Suddenly!

Clang!

The sound of a blade being unsheathed rang through heaven and earth, and endless sword light swept across the sea of clouds!

Chen Yan trembled; he looked toward the distant night sky above.

Within the massive silver screen of clouds and mist.

The Xia Lord Sword radiated surging sword light, suppressing the world!

The world was shocked.

At this moment, Chen Yan's perception was even clearer.

Because he had been sensed by the Xia Lord Sword, and a strange power locked onto him.
