Chapter 83: Visitors from the Demon Clan (Part 2)
Fresh blood dripped down and gathered into a small pool of bloodstains.
Feng Wangyan tightly dug his fingers into the cracks of the bricks, his eyes wide open, veins bulging on his forehead. He tried to speak, but blood kept pouring out from the corners of his lips.
He had never experienced such a great humiliation in his entire life!!
He was born in Danxue Mountain's Phoenix Clan, which is an ancient race of monsters. Ever since he was born, he possessed the Golden Core, making him the only unique phoenix in the world...
Why does this monster in front of him, why...
"I was born in Danxue Mountain..." Feng Wangyan suddenly raised his head, his gaze locked onto Jia Yin, a man. He finally managed to squeeze out a few words, "We are ancient monsters... How dare you?"
But every time he tried to speak, blood would gurgle out.
Everyone present could see how miserable the man looked at that moment.
Lying on the ground, he resembled a dead dog without any grace.
When has he ever regarded others as important?
With his head bowed, Feng Wangyan, his eyes bloodshot, tried to prop himself up with his hands and crawl up.
He was unique from birth...
But just now, someone used their strength to show him that there were always people better than him, even beyond his imagination. The so-called self-esteem and pride were instantly crushed.
In this world, the strong always reigned supreme. Practicing cultivation was like rowing against the current - if you didn't move forward, you would fall behind.
Since birth, he had always been a powerful phoenix, soaring effortlessly. But for the first time, he experienced the harsh reality of society.
Mu Xiaoxiao stood still, staring at Jia Yin for a long time before finally snapping back to reality. With a quick glance, she noticed Feng Wangyan lying on the ground.
The majestic and beautiful phoenix, who usually stood tall and proud, now struggled to stay down, making raspy sounds from his throat.
Mu Xiaoxiao reached out and gently touched Feng Wangyan's face, showing a hint of timidity: "Little... little phoenix..."
The man's black hair fell from his shoulders, stained with blood, completely losing his previous proud appearance.
Jia Yin looked up and saw the worried and timid gaze of the girl. Feng Wangyan tightened his lips.
This scene caught the attention of the crowd, and the surroundings quieted down subtly. Glancing at the expressionless man, their hearts couldn't help but tremble a little.
How terrifying must one's cultivation be to beat a cultivator in the Foundation Establishment stage like this? It's simply dog abuse.
At this moment, nobody paid attention to Feng Wangyan anymore. One by one, their eyes couldn't help but glance at Jia Yin, wanting to see the charm of the legendary Demon Emperor.
But the man seemed oblivious, casually withdrawing his gaze without even looking at Feng Wangyan on the ground or the Mu Xiaoxiao sobbing softly while kneeling. With five dragon shadows twirling around, he turned around and left with Qiao Wan.
True humiliation isn't about looking cool and badass while making threatening remarks.
It's about not caring about the person at all after humiliating them.
Invisible humiliation is the most deadly.
From beginning to end, Jia Yin never paid any attention to Feng Wangyan.
The man turned and walked away, and everyone present glanced at Qiao Wan, who was caught by the dragon's shadow, but no one dared to speak.
It wasn't that they were impolite or not like brothers.
It was just that the power Jia Yin had just displayed was too terrifying.
Anyway, the great god didn't seem to have any intention of going on a killing spree.
Then...
Everyone coughed and thought anxiously, "Taoist Friend Lu, you can go with peace of mind."
But at that moment, the girl kneeling beside the man suddenly grabbed the hem of her dress, mustered up the courage, and rushed forward, stretching out her arms to block Jia Yin.
Her voice was crisp and firm, "Taoist friend, please stop!"
At the sight of this scene, everyone present was shocked.
The girl glanced at the man, trembling in fear of the pressure emanating from him, but she still bit her lip and bravely raised her eyes.
"What does this even mean?"
"The little phoenix didn't offend the taoist friend. Wasn't the taoist friend's recent actions a bit too much?"
After hearing what Mu Xiaoxiao said, the words 'I'm shocked' flashed through everyone's mind.
Oh my goodness.
If you want to die, do it on your own. Don't pull them down with you.
The girl was trembling with fear, tears streaming down her face. Her eyes and nose were red, crying pitifully with a determined and bright gaze.
Jia Yin glanced at Mu Xiaoxiao without being moved, and five dragon shadows swooped out again, cleanly flipping the girl in front of him to the ground.
After the five dragon shadows left, Mu Xiaoxiao also fell with a clatter.
Being heavily flipped to the ground by this surge of dragon energy, Mu Xiaoxiao was stunned. Pain appeared on her face, she quickly grabbed her skirt and crawled up, looking around and trembling slightly.
Although it wasn't as heavy as Feng Wangyan's attack, there was no mercy at all.
Partly because of the pain, partly because of the humiliation and embarrassment.
From the time Qiao Wan entered Zhou Yan's door until now, there have been people protecting her, Zhou Yan, Pei Chunzheng, Feng Wangyan, and Xiao Huan, to keep her safe. This is the first time she has been treated so disrespectfully. But just with that one action, Mu Xiaoxiao couldn't help but tremble and look at Qiao Wan lying on the ground. Is it all because of Qiao Wan?
The man stood with his hands behind his back, not even raising an eyebrow.
For Demon Emperor Jia Yin, who is known for being cruel, there are only two types of people in this world.
Those you can fight against and those you can't.
There is no distinction between men and women, no sense of compassion or respect for others. Otherwise, Jia Yin wouldn't have shattered every bone in Qiao Wan's body with one slap.
In a way, Jia Yin could be considered the embodiment of equality for all beings, even more so than the monks at the Great Compassion Cliff.
Everyone: ... The cold-heartedness of the Demon Emperor truly lives up to its reputation.
Qiao Wan's "narrow escape from death" just now seemed even more horrifying.
At that very moment, with a loud thud, Qiao Wan woke up suddenly. Her eyelashes fluttered, as if she was coming to her senses.
Jia Yin paused in his footsteps and glanced at Qiao Wan. Everyone's heart tightened, afraid that Qiao Wan would suddenly become violent and cause trouble.
Just now, although the Lord of All Demons had a thought of sparing this servant girl, if Qiao Wan continued to be ungrateful, it was uncertain whether she would survive under Jia Yin's hands.
Qiao Wan struggled to open her eyes.
Jia Yin glanced at her, and a powerful aura suddenly shook.
The people present exclaimed, "Oh no! She's going to kill someone!"
The overwhelming pressure of a Nascent Soul stage cultivator and the uncontained demonic energy of the Lord of All Demons erupted instantly. The demonic energy overwhelmed the girl's lingering dark aura.
As she opened her eyes, she met Jia Yin's face. It was a magical experience.
Although her mind was still disturbed by the dark aura, the fierce and unparalleled demonic energy startled Qiao Wan, and she gradually regained some sanity.
"Woke up?" The man's gaze was indifferent.
She had a vague impression of what just happened. She turned her head and saw Feng Wangyan lying on the ground and Mu Xiaoxiao falling not far away. Qiao Wan was surprised to see Jia Yin appearing here. Unsteadily, she stood up and held her head, making a sound like "Hmm."
"Did I just..." Qiao Wan didn't finish her sentence.
She wanted to ask if she had lost her mind and hurt him, but before she could ask, she felt a sudden pain in the back of her neck.
Qiao Wan reached her hand back and went silent.
It seemed swollen.
She must have really hurt Jia Yin.
As she turned her head, everyone present was staring at her, their eyes filled with curiosity, horror, and admiration.
With a quick glance, Mu Xiaoxiao, with tears in her eyes, looked at her with a complicated expression.
Jia Yin glanced at her impatiently, and in a concise and cold manner, said, "Let's go."
Qiao Wan was stunned for a moment, withdrew her hand, and subconsciously followed him.
At that moment, the girl raised her voice again: "Martial Sister Qiao Wan!"
Mu Xiaoxiao stood a few steps away, looking at Qiao Wan with hesitation in her eyes, her voice trembling softly, "Qiao Wan, is that you?"
Her voice wasn't loud, but it was enough for everyone present, including the recently arrived Four Spirits, to hear clearly.
Qiao Wan... younger martial sister?
After yesterday's events, the news of Qiao Wan taking the Face Changing Pill was no longer a secret in the whole Cen Mansion. It was only when Mu Xiaoxiao mentioned it that everyone suddenly realized that these two girls in front of them looked almost identical.
- Younger martial sister?
- Are they both elder martial sisters?
- Wasn't Miss Mu under Kunshan Yuqing Spiritual Master's tutelage? When did Xin Yi become Miss Mu's younger martial sister?
It was said that Xin Yi had gone astray, and in her rush to intervene, she unexpectedly overheard a major piece of gossip. The Four Spirits were all shocked.
Especially Baihu Ershisan, who was the most frightened. He froze for a moment, and the big knife in his hand fell to the ground with a clang.
"Qiao Wan, the disciple of Yuqing Spiritual Master, right? The one from Kunshan."
"Just because Qizawa Province and Kunshan are thousands of miles apart doesn't mean they haven't heard of Qiao Wan."
It is said that Yuqing Spiritual Master only took in three disciples.
The eldest disciple is Lu Pihan, who is skilled in swordsmanship. The second disciple is Mu Xiaoxiao. And the third disciple is none other than Qiao Wan, who recently made a name for herself in the cultivation world by challenging the demon realm and the Xiao Family.
You mean to tell me that the plain and ordinary girl who always carries a big hammer is Qiao Wan? The one rumored to be the elegant and noble princess of the demon realm?
Looking at the girl in front of me, with her expressionless face, besides her beautiful appearance, how could she have any connection to Yuqing Spiritual Master's disciple?
Is this really Qiao Wan? The Qiao Wan?
As I look towards Qiao Wan in the distance, I am not only shocked by her disguise, but also by Baihu Ershisan's pain.
So, Xin Yi is not Xin Yi, and Lu Wan is not Lu Wan. They are actually rumored to be Qiao Wan.
The darkness in front of her wasn't really darkness. She asked, "What do you mean by 'white'?"
Mu Xiaoxiao bit her lip and stood up. "Martial Sister Qiao Wan, is it really you?"
Her disguise had been completely exposed. Qiao Wan paused for a moment, but didn't deny it. She nodded and replied, "Taoist Friend Mu."
Mu Xiaoxiao took a few steps forward. "Younger martial sister, it really is you."
The young girl wiped her face and smiled. "That's great."
Jia Yin stood still with his sleeves hanging down, keeping his eyes low. Although he seemed impatient, he didn't urge them on.
When the girl caught a glimpse of Jia Yin, she hesitated for a moment, as if she refused to back down, and took a stubborn step forward.
However, the man didn't spare her a second glance.
Mu Xiaoxiao's face changed slightly, and she whispered, "Younger martial sister, do you know this taoist friend?"
