Chapter 107: Shengjian Pavilion

Holding the Golden Scale Shuttle in his hand, Yan Xiao feigned profoundness and said, "Sigh, I thought he could take one move with me using thirty percent of my strength; I didn't expect him to be so fragile."

"What?"

"He only used thirty percent of his strength?"

"What kind of cultivation level does this guy actually have?"

Fear Value from a group of people +10000

Fear Value from a group of people +12000.

Fear Value from Yan Xiao +300.

Yan Xiao checked the system backend; he hadn't expected this surprise move to add so much Fear Value. Even he himself had gained three hundred. It was truly a bit too stimulating.

Thinking about it, it made sense; even he himself had been startled, let alone the onlookers here.

It truly lived up to that old saying: invisible showing off is the most lethal!

Yan Xiao thought to himself: "If I were like that senior and collected Pretending Value, it would be even more awesome."

"It's a pity my system isn't as advanced as his," Yan Xiao sighed inwardly, thinking: "I wonder how the girl Qingxue is doing now? She hasn't upgraded the system for so long; could she have encountered some danger?"

Thinking of this, Yan Xiao's mood suddenly grew heavy, and his gaze toward the members of the Zhang Family became increasingly unkind.

"What are you doing?" Struck by Yan Xiao's gaze, Zhang Hu staggered in fear and nearly fell.

Fear Value +3000. It went straight to the limit.

"Liu Yu, I leave him to you! Death Squad disciples, take orders: kill them all, leave none alive!"

Yan Xiao's pupils constricted as he gave the resolute order.

"Yes!" As the squad leader of the Death Squad, Wang Dazhu took the lead. He pulled out the broadsword Yan Xiao had gifted him and charged at the Zhang Family members with a move of "Yaoniminsanqian."

Instantly, several Zhang Family disciples targeted by Wang Dazhu exploded, hacked into fragments by his overbearing blade technique.

With the improvement of his cultivation, Wang Dazhu's defense became increasingly formidable, and his attack power grew more and more astonishing.

Seeing such powerful explosive force from him, even Yan Xiao was taken aback.

Fear Value from a group of people +10000.

Fear Value from Yan Xiao +250.

Yan Xiao was speechless looking at the backend records; he had actually been scared into a 250! He immediately looked at Wang Dazhu with unkind eyes.

Wang Dazhu was startled, feeling a sense of foreboding. He struck out with his blade again, killing a few more Zhang Family disciples, but that ominous feeling still hadn't dissipated, so he couldn't help but scratch his head in confusion.

"Zhang Hu, pay with your life!"

On the field, Liu Yu looked at Zhang Hu, shouted loudly, and charged at him with his Flying Sword.

He wanted to avenge his younger brother and sister who had died at Zhang Hu's hands.

"You... you... you are Liu Yu!" At this moment, Zhang Hu finally remembered who the youth before him was. His heart could not help but grow even more terrified.

He dared not confront Liu Yu again and turned to run, but Liu Yu gave him no chance, unleashing a sword art at him; the Flying Sword whistled through the air, shooting toward Zhang Hu's forehead.

"Ancestor, save me!"

Before dying, Zhang Hu let out a cry, but no one could save him.

A bout of slaughter.

Half an hour later, the Death Squad had cleared out the entire Zhang Bao Lou. Three Death Squad disciples were heavily injured, five were lightly injured, and not a single one died.

Yan Xiao had not let Luosang and the others intervene, precisely to train the Death Squad's practical combat abilities. Watching them improve by leaps and bounds, Yan Xiao was happy; the Death Squad would be his trump card for conquering the continent. He believed that in the future, the Death Squad would surely make people tremble at the mere mention of their name.

The onlookers, seeing Yan Xiao be so cruel as to raze the entire Zhang Bao Lou to the ground, could not help but fear Yan Xiao even more.

Although they liked to watch the show, if they lost their lives for the sake of watching, that would be a terrible deal. Thus, they all ran far away.

"Hello everyone, my name is Yan Xiao. I am a kind, generous, and loving Young Master from a wealthy family. Arriving in this precious place today, I had a small unpleasantness with the Zhang Family. But it was all a minor matter and has already been resolved. From now on, Zhang Bao Lou is my, Yan Xiao's, territory. If anyone has any needs, feel free to come and shop; the quality and price are absolutely fairer than Zhang Bao Lou's. I hope everyone will spread the word. Hmm... our shop will no longer be called Zhang Bao Lou; it is renamed Shengjian Pavilion. We still deal in Spirit Pills and weapons; everyone is welcome to come and shop!"

Yan Xiao stood in front of the main gate of Zhang Bao Lou, shouting to the crowd watching from the sky and the ground. He wore an amiable and approachable expression, which made everyone break out in goosebumps.

Many people cursed inwardly: "A minor matter? Zhang Bao Lou has been beaten out of existence by you, and you call this a minor matter?"

"This young master is a wolf-man; he's not to be trifled with... not to be trifled with..."

"My god, can you be any more shameless?"

"Zhang Bao Lou has changed owners just like that? Renamed to Shengjian Pavilion?"

Following the crowd's discussion, the reputation of the Shengjian Sect and Yan Xiao instantly spread throughout Qinghe County.

In Zhang Bao Lou... no, it should be Shengjian Pavilion, Luosang looked at Yan Xiao, who still appeared as breezy as a spring breeze with his smile undiminished, and said worriedly, "Sect Master, if we make such a big scene and the Chen Family finds out... that would be highly inappropriate!"

"No need to worry. Qinghe County and Luoyue City are ten thousand miles apart. As long as that old scoundrel Chen Jing isn't stupid, it's impossible for him to mobilize a large force to hunt us down." Yan Xiao waved his hand, not worried in the slightest.

He used his Sunglasses to track Chen Jing's location; as long as Chen Jing made a move, he would be able to detect it immediately. It was ten thousand miles away from Luoyue City; by the time Chen Jing arrived, he could completely move the Shengjian Sect disciples to safety.

As long as Chen Jing wasn't afraid of the trouble, he wasn't afraid of fighting a guerrilla war.

Hit and run, who's afraid of whom?

"Sect Master, I still feel it's somewhat inappropriate." Luosang was more conservative, and the worry in his heart could not be set aside.

"Rest assured, I am monitoring that old brat Chen Jing with a special secret technique. Once he makes a move, I will be the first to know, so everyone need not worry. That old fellow is currently at the entrance of the Spirit Cave, thinking about how to get in."

Yan Xiao laughed heartily, very proud of his masterpiece.

Hearing this, Luosang and the other Shengjian Sect Elders could not help but breathe a sigh of relief, secretly admiring the brilliance of the Sect Master's methods. They also couldn't help but mutter to themselves, "It seems we ourselves shouldn't do anything excessive; what if the Sect Master is always monitoring us?"

Seeing the strange looks from the crowd, Yan Xiao smiled, "Elders, no need to worry. We are all our own people, no need to have any thoughts. I, Yan Xiao, am upright and honorable; I won't do any petty things in private. You can completely rest assured regarding everyone's privacy."

"However, Elder Luo Cang, your eyesight is poor, but next time you need to relieve yourself, try to walk a bit further away."

It would have been better if he hadn't spoken; once he did, everyone felt their sphincters tighten, and their hearts turned ice-cold.

If he even monitored Elder Luo Cang's midnight bathroom trips, let alone any other petty actions.

"We are all one family, don't be so restrained. A gentleman is open and honest, why be so like strangers!"

Yan Xiao laughed loudly, took out a jar of wine, and poured it for everyone to show his friendly attitude.

Everyone looked at each other, unable to help but smile bitterly. They thought to themselves, "If a gentleman is open and honest, then why don't you stop monitoring us?"

"This Sect Master picked up for a bargain is truly extraordinary."

Luosang drained his cup in one gulp; he thought that since he had decided to follow Yan Xiao for this life, he should just do what he was supposed to do, so why overthink things?

He believed that Yan Xiao was by no means a heartless or unrighteous person. Thinking of this, Luosang's mood improved significantly, and he took the initiative to toast Yan Xiao.

Some are happy while others are worried.

While Yan Xiao was throwing a grand celebration banquet, over at the Zhang Family, everyone's faces were as dark as ink. Listening to the news that kept coming in, the members of the Zhang Family knew they had kicked an iron plate this time.

That fellow who calls himself Yan Xiao seems difficult to provoke!
