Chapter 219: Yan Nantian and Lianxing (Bonus chapter for Hall Master Da Zizai Wuyou)

~8 min read 1,426 words

Yu Liancheng finally saw Yan Nantian.

This legendary "World's Number One Divine Sword" and "World's Number One Hero" did not look extraordinary on the outside; he even looked like a sickly person whom even a child could knock down with one punch.

But it was precisely the "tiger's form looks sickly, the eagle's stance looks like it's sleeping"; Yu Liancheng could naturally tell that within this seemingly gaunt body, astonishing, immense power could erupt at any moment.

Furthermore, Yu Liancheng could also see that after Yan Nantian's Wedding Dress Divine Skill reached completion, it not only made his Wedding Dress internal energy pure and mellow, allowing him to wield it with Ruyi, but it had also transformed his tendons and marrow, reborn his body, and achieved the "Subduing Demon Golden Body."

Yu Liancheng had not yet crossed hands with Yan Nantian, and although he could see that this "Subduing Demon Golden Body" was extraordinary and difficult for ordinary weapons to harm, just how powerful it was, and whether it could contend with the Ruyi Heavenly Demon Art, remained an unknown.

Then, Yu Liancheng saw Xiaoxiannv; she was as agile, lively, and beautiful as a celestial being, just as she had always been.

But given Xiaoxiannv's wicked and arrogant personality, that she could travel with Yan Nantian was truly unexpected.

"I wonder if this Yannantian is my father-in-law by convenience?" Yu Liancheng speculated with ill intent in his heart.

In the past, "Jade Lady" Zhang Sanniang was the world's number one beauty; although she was as beautiful as jade, she was also as cold as ice. While there was no telling how many men in the Edo pursued her, there was only one she took a fancy to.

——Yan Nantian.

Back then, there was no telling how many romantic rumors about the two of them there were in the Edo.

But whether they were true or false, only the two parties involved knew.

"It is truly a great honor for Senior Yan to grace me with your presence." Yu Liancheng had always been a polite person, especially toward a towering, upright hero and great champion like Yan Nantian.

Yan Nantian said: "I have also heard of your deeds; you can be called a young hero, a proud son of heaven."

In the Edo, it was not easy to receive a word of praise from him.

Yu Liancheng turned his head again to look at Xiaoxiannv, the smile on his face suddenly vanishing, and he sighed leisurely: "I thought we at least counted as friends, yet I didn't expect you wouldn't be willing to come see me until today."

"I didn't, I always wanted to come find..." Xiaoxiannv had always been unreserved about expressing her feelings, but she was very proud; before she finished speaking, she realized something was wrong and snorted coldly: "I couldn't find you, couldn't you have come to find me?"

Yan Nantian watched the two of them with a smile, not interrupting.

Regarding such matters of the heart, he naturally knew that outsiders should not easily interfere.

After being coaxed by Yu Liancheng for a few words, although Xiaoxiannv still kept a cold face, there seemed to be a hint of a smile at the corners of her mouth.

Yu Liancheng exhaled lightly; fortunately, Lianxing liked to sleep in, otherwise, if she saw this scene and grew jealous, it would not be easy to resolve at this moment.

He changed the subject and looked at Yan Nantian, saying: "Yannantian, I wonder what business you have in finding me?"

Yan Nantian said: "I have come to find Jiang Xiaoyu, that is, Xiaoyuer. I heard that at Dilingzhuang that day, you two exposed Jiang Biehe's plot together. I imagine you should be his friend; do you know his whereabouts?"

Yu Liancheng shook his head and said: "I previously had him deal with Jiang Biehe and his son. After a few days, the brat sent me a letter and then disappeared. I don't know where he is now either."

Yan Nantian said: "Oh, how exactly did you handle that Jiang Biehe?"

"I originally intended to lock the father and son in a mountain cave filled with countless gold, silver, and jewels, and starve them to death..."

Yu Liancheng recounted the plan one by one: "It's a pity that the brat Xiaoyuer was too clever for his own good; he put food in the chest and even wanted to save them. But Xiaoyuer could never have imagined that, given the nature of that father and son, it would only lead them to turn on each other sooner and die faster."

After hearing everything, Yan Nantian's expression remained unchanged, but Xiaoxiannv couldn't help but shudder at the plan.

Being starved to death was undoubtedly one of the most terrifying ways to die in the world, and when there were mountains of gold and silver right in front of one's eyes, yet one couldn't buy a single grain of rice, that kind of despair was truly suffocating.

As for the father and son turning on each other, it was even more unspeakably sorrowful and terrifying. So-called family affection was not worth mentioning in the face of one's own life.

"You fellow, so you started plotting this back in the treasure cave on Emei Mountain." Xiaoxiannv looked Yu Liancheng up and down, as if she were meeting this person for the first time.

Yu Liancheng shrugged his shoulders and said indifferently: "I just don't like them, and I was passing the time while bored."

"Is that Jiang Biehe really the former pageboy Jiang Qin?" Yan Nantian's eyes stared straight at Yu Liancheng, his tone suddenly becoming heavy.

At this moment, this "World's Number One Divine Sword," who looked like a sickly tiger, seemed to truly become a great beast. Being stared at by the cold gaze of that beast, no one could remain calm, and no one could easily lie.

Yet Yu Liancheng still calmly took a sip of tea and nodded indifferently: "That's right, Jiang Biehe is Jiang Qin."

Yan Nantian looked at Yu Liancheng for a moment longer, then suddenly looked up and laughed.

The laughter was like a dragon roaring and a tiger howling, and like crashing waves, spreading in all directions; amidst this laughter, the entire room seemed to be trembling.

Xiaoxiannv could not help but cover her ears, her brows slightly furrowed; amidst this laughter, her Qi and Blood and True Qi were also churning.

Fortunately, the laughter stopped very quickly.

Yan Nantian looked at Yu Liancheng with a smile on his face and said: "Good, you did very well. I owe you a favor. From now on, I can do one thing for you that does not violate the righteousness of the martial arts world."

Yu Liancheng smiled and said: "I wonder what plans Yannantian has for the future?"

"The grudge of my sworn brother Jiang Feng naturally cannot go unavenged. Jiang Qin is already dead, but there are still the Twelve Zodiacs, and those two women from Yihua Palace, Yao Yue and Lianxing, and there is also..."

Speaking of this, Yan Nantian's expression suddenly turned stern, and he looked behind the door: "Who is there?"

"Greetings, Yannantian; you don't need to go to Yihua Palace, Lianxing is right here."

A graceful figure in palace attire had already appeared before everyone. Lianxing smiled and said: "Back then, it was my sister and I who caused the deaths of Jiang Feng and his wife. It is only natural that you would want to take action against us sisters, and I also happen to want to see your Wedding Dress Divine Skill."

Yu Liancheng frowned and said: "Why did you come out?"

Lianxing smiled and said: "No matter who is seeking revenge, there is no reason for someone from Yihua Palace to retreat or flee, especially since I, the Second Palace Master... no, the First Palace Master, also represent the dignity of Yihua Palace."

"Good! Good! Good!" Yan Nantian had already stood up.

His sudden standing, though gaunt and bony, gave people a sense of majesty: "Regardless, this demeanor of the Yihua Palace Master is truly admirable."

Once this sentence was finished, the entire room was already filled with two invisible and massive forces, standing in opposition to each other.

PS: Although this was written after midnight, it still counts as five updates. I beg for monthly tickets; as for the rewards from you brothers, I will pay them back slowly. It is indeed a bit too much to pay them all back in one day.
