Chapter 52: Overdoing It

Feng Jia Da Yuan.

Feng Jingting sat on the roof, looking far away at the main gate of the Yan Mansion.

For the past few days, the figure of Yan Xiao had been lingering in her mind; whenever she closed her eyes, he was all she saw.

"He should be asleep by now, right? Would he be thinking of me too? Probably not..."

Feng Xianzi was anxious and worried; ever since she said she had privately pledged her life to Yan Xiao, the family Elders had been delighted to see it happen.

They were eager for her to marry into his family immediately.

Tomorrow, Yan Xiao would succeed to the position of Sect Master of Luoxia Mountain, and the family was even going to offer congratulations in the name of in-laws; if Yan Xiao didn't like her and exposed her on the spot, what would she do?

At the mere thought of this, she had no desire to sleep.

Feng Chen glanced at his daughter and sighed, "Jingting, Yan Xiao is a capable man. If you like him, you might as well be a bit more proactive; it's not shameful."

"Father... I..."

Feng Jingting's face flushed red. She wanted to say she didn't like Yan Xiao, but when the words reached her lips, she couldn't bear to say them.

If she said she liked him, as a girl, how could she be so bold?

Her father even wanted her to be proactive... it was truly embarrassing.

"Father is a good judge of character. That Yan Xiao is definitely no ordinary person. If you miss this opportunity, you might regret it... Father doesn't want you to regret it, so you must seize it."

"Happiness must be fought for by oneself."

Feng Chen was, after all, an old hand in the world and looked at the long term; Yan Xiao was a dragon, and once he grew, Luoyue City would not be able to hold him.

"Father, then tell me, if I go to Luoxia Mountain as his fiancée, will I be rejected by him...

Will he be unhappy, thinking I am a social climber and a vulgar person..."

Feng Jingting asked worriedly.

"I don't think so. For one, he needs the support of the Feng Family; for another, my daughter is so outstanding that he would have to be blind to reject you."

Feng Chen laughed heartily.

"Sister, brother-in-law is great. If you don't go, you will definitely regret it."

Feng Jingxuan, that brat, also ran out to persuade her, and his earnest expression amused Feng Jingting.

Back to Yan Xiao.

He was currently staring at his fellow disciples, watching what tricks they could pull.

"You guys, hurry up. Later we will rehearse the tactics; we must scare Yan Xiao away in one go."

The Senior Brother put on strange clothes and a mask, urging the others.

"Senior Brother, if that Yan Xiao is a timid person and gets scared into a bad state, what should we do?"

A young man asked worriedly; he was still afraid that the City Lord would back Yan Xiao.

"What a timid person, he deserves it if he gets scared to death."

The Senior Brother said disdainfully.

Damn it...

Yan Xiao was furious in the shadows; just because of these few petty thieves, they dared to mock him.

"If I were you, I'd go up and punch them one by one, knock them down first," the System instigated.

"You go then, I support you," Yan Xiao couldn't help but retort to the System.

"Owner, why are you being fierce to me?" The System immediately transformed into a little girl, saying aggrievedly.

"System Brother, System Sister, I beg you, stop messing with me. You're making me prone to a mental breakdown."

Yan Xiao closed his eyes, feeling life was meaningless.

God knows what kind of madness this System was having; it changed voices and roles every moment, and he was almost having a nervous breakdown.

"Owner, the System is actually training your Divine Sense, allowing you to grasp the weaknesses of any enemy instantly so you won't be taken advantage of in the future," the System said earnestly.

Ah... Yan Xiao was actually unable to refute that.

"Owner, I have good news for you. The System Mall maintenance is finished, and you can draw prizes now."

"A slap and then a sweet date, you really know how to play," Yan Xiao complained.

"A slap and then a sweet date, you really know how to play," Yan Xiao remarked sarcastically.

At this moment, the fellow disciples had already put on their equipment, just waiting for Yan Xiao to participate in the assessment.

"Listen up, everyone. If Yan Xiao comes in, I will step forward and kick his left leg. Second Junior Brother, jump out and scare him. If he isn't scared, you draw your sword and slash his arm.

Third Junior Brother, be ready on the right. If Yan Xiao flees in your direction, take the chance to kick his stomach, and try to kick him unconscious in one go.

Basically, there's no need for the Fourth Junior Brother and the youngest Junior Brother to act."

The Senior Brother laughed loudly.

"Idiots!"

Yan Xiao really couldn't hold it back anymore; they were actually saying they wanted to beat him up right to his face—unforgivable.

Yan Xiao truly could not hold back anymore; to actually say he wanted to beat him right to his face was unforgivable.

The group looked solemn, drawing their long swords, ready to fight at any moment.

"Your ancestor here."

Yan Xiao used Earth Escape to get behind the Senior Brother and flicked him on the head.

Yan Xiao used Earth Escape to get behind the Senior Brother and rapped him on the head with his knuckles.

The Senior Brother felt the pain, clutching his head and running around in a panic.

Fear Value +500. Fear Value +300.

"What kind of rat is this? If you have the guts, come out and fight!"

"What kind of rat is hiding there? If you have the guts, come out and fight."

Seeing the Senior Brother get beaten up for no reason, the few of them were frightened and immediately huddled together for comfort.

"With such small guts, you still dare to pretend to be ghosts to scare people; I think you are tired of living."

Yan Xiao changed his vocal tone, emitting a weird, mocking sound.

As he spoke, he snapped his fingers, and a ball of flame appeared out of thin air, drifting in the air and changing into all sorts of shapes.

Compared to the few of them, he was more like a 'ghost'.

Fear Value of the few increased by 1000.

"Speak, who sent you here, and what is your purpose for coming here?" Yan Xiao pressed them.

"We, we..." The few stammered, not daring to tell the truth.

"Even if you don't say it, I know. Who else could it be but people of the Seven Spirits who can enter here? If you don't confess honestly, I will kill you immediately."

Yan Xiao intimidated them.

The few gritted their teeth and remained silent.

"Not talking, are you? Then I won't be polite."

The few were not speaking, nor were they generating Fear Value; how could this be allowed?

Yan Xiao decisively reached out his hand, dragged the Senior Brother into the wall, and trapped him inside the stone wall.

The Senior Brother disappeared before he could even let out a scream, his life or death unknown, and the few became even more fearful.

Fear Value +500. Fear Value +1200.

"Will you speak or not?"

Yan Xiao asked again.

"I'll speak... I'll speak... don't kill me."

The Junior Brother could not withstand the pressure and took the initiative to beg for mercy, "We are disciples of Cangyun Mountain, and the Sect Master ordered us to come over to sabotage Yan Xiao's assessment... to stop him from entering the second level of the Spirit Cave."

"Cangyun Mountain, I have noted it."

Yan Xiao muttered to himself; he didn't seem to have offended Cangyun Mountain, so could it be to target Luoxia Mountain?

"Senior, everything I said is the truth, please let us go," the Junior Brother said with a sobbing tone.

Letting them go now might lead to them doing something unfavorable, so it would be better to trap them for the night.

Yan Xiao directly grabbed them one by one, dragged them all into the stone wall, and sealed them inside the stone.

The few inexplicably arrived inside the stone crevices, unable to move their bodies at all; the surroundings were quiet and pitch black, feeling as if they had entered Jiu You Di Yu, and the more they thought about it, the more afraid they became.

Fear Value from a group of people +1500.

With the Fear Value obtained, Yan Xiao felt wonderful inside.

"None of you try to break through the 【Jiu You God-Slaying Eternal Indestructible Invincible Seal】, just obediently reflect on yourselves inside; I will naturally let you out after one day."

Yan Xiao's hoarse voice rang in the ears of the few, and they immediately stopped the thought of struggling out of the stone wall and obediently faced the wall to reflect on their mistakes inside the stone wall.

Returning to Luoxia Mountain, he discovered that he didn't even have a place to stay; the people of Luoxia Mountain were truly too unreliable.

Once he becomes Sect Master, he must properly criticize them.

The sky was just beginning to brighten, and he sat on the stone steps in front of the main hall to catch the breeze.

Looking from afar, he didn't have the bearing of a Sect Master at all, and even looked a bit sleazy.

With nothing to do, he opened the system mall; the system panel had already taken on a brand-new look.

A task page and a lucky draw page had been added.

The products sold in the product column had also changed, with many items added, mostly Spirit Pill.

On the lucky draw page, a triple draw and a quintuple draw were added, and there was no need to refresh the page for the lucky draw, which made him feel it was quite convenient.

Lucky draw rules: There is one lucky draw opportunity every ten days, which cannot be stacked.

Each lucky draw allows a choice of a triple draw or a quintuple draw, with only one chance to choose.

Prizes: There is a chance to obtain all items from the heavens and worlds.

"It looks quite awesome, but it wouldn't be fun if five roast duck models came out all at once."

Yan Xiao complained.

Although he said so with his mouth, he was actually quite looking forward to this lucky draw in his heart.
