Scheming Against Yan Zhuixing

Having said all that, Yue Qianchou no longer wanted to mince words; it was pointless. He said, "Let's not beat around the bush. That's what I mean. Since you're unwilling to take action, then please have Wen Lanfeng do it. This is for the good of the Wen family."

"Impossible. Wen Lanfeng wouldn't kill a cultivator in the early Tribulation stage Wen Lanfeng without reason. He's not like Yin Baikang. If he were that kind of person, I wouldn't associate with him." Seeing that Yue Qianchou was still unwilling to give up, Nong Zhu immediately waved her hand and said, "Alright! Don't try to persuade me anymore. Figure this out yourself. It's not worth having a Nascent Spirit Transformation stage cultivator deal with a mere early Tribulation stage Realm cultivator. Don't you know some late Tribulation Transcendence stage Realm experts? Why not try targeting them?"

"Although I've never seen Yan Zhuixing make a move, I'm afraid even a late Tribulation Transcendence stage expert wouldn't be his match." Yue Qianchou countered, "Do you believe me?"

"Whether I believe it or not is fine, you figure it out yourself. As for Wen Qing, I'll go back and remind Wen Lanfeng now." Nong Zhu raised her hand and removed the soundproof barrier, opened the door, put her hands behind her back, and slowly walked out.

"Nonsense! I'll do it myself." Yue Qianchou muttered a curse as he followed behind Nong Zhu.

As the door opened upstairs, everyone below turned their attention to the two figures emerging one after the other and strolling down the stairs. The most eye-catching was Niu Youde, walking behind. This was no ordinary person! How many people in the Cultivation World dared to be as arrogant as him?

Even Yan Zhuixing looked at him with a hint of admiration. Wen Qing, on the other hand, was fearful; this man was on par with Mr. Nongzhu! As for the shopkeeper and the staff, they seemed somewhat apprehensive. Just imagine, someone who didn't even put the Princess in his eyes—what kind of background must he have!

"Mr. Nongzhu, Senior Niu!" A group of people bowed and greeted him.

The two nodded slightly, both looking like experts. Nong Zhu took the opportunity to give Yan Zhuixing a serious look, then glanced at Wen Qing. Without saying anything more, she walked out of the shop and said to Wen Chongzheng, who was bowing and scraping at the door, "Tell all these people to go back! Let's go."

Wen Chongzheng quickly gave a shout to the officers and soldiers standing outside, then eagerly chased after Nong Zhu. The officers and soldiers had no choice but to withdraw.

Yue Qianchou glanced at everyone expressionlessly, his gaze lingering on Yan Zhuixing before he let out a surprised "Eh."

Yan Zhuixing and his fellow disciples, including Man Hu, exchanged glances, wondering what Niu Youde had figured out.

Yu Landu, who was standing to the side, said with a smile, "Senior Niu, is there something wrong?"

"What's your name?" Yue Qianchou asked, pointing at Yan Zhuixing. The latter, with a faint smile, bowed respectfully and replied, "This junior is Yan Zhuixing. May I ask what guidance you may offer, senior?"

Yue Qianchou glanced at Wen Qing and the shopkeeper and staff and said, "Yu Landu, have the unauthorized people leave."

Everyone understood the meaning behind his words; some topics concerning cultivators were naturally not convenient for mortals to know. Yu Landu obeyed and immediately asked the shopkeeper and the staff to leave for a moment. The shopkeeper and the staff dared not object and obediently withdrew. Under Yu Landu's instructions, the staff even carried out the four unconscious guards.

When it came to Wen Qing's turn, the girl glanced at Yan Zhuixing somewhat reluctantly, seemingly asking for his opinion. Yan Zhuixing smiled and nodded at her, and only then did Wen Qing leave with a slight pout.

Yu Landu was incredibly meticulous in her work. She even used her Divine Sense to check every corner of the restaurant. After confirming that no one was around, she cupped her hands and said, "Senior, it's done."

Yue Qianchou waved his hand at him, indicating that he understood, and kept staring at Yan Zhuixing, looking him up and down, sometimes shaking his head, sometimes sighing. This left everyone somewhat confused. After waiting for a while, this senior Niu finally spoke up and asked, "Who is Yan Zhuixing?"

"Yes." Yan Zhuixing appeared calm on the surface, but inwardly he was unsure.

"How strange! I've met countless people, but I've never seen anyone like you." Yue Qianchou clicked his tongue and asked, "Have you cultivated some extraordinary Cultivation Method? It's quite impressive!"

Man Hu and the others were shocked. They hadn't expected Niu Youde to be so powerful, able to see at a glance that Yan Zhuixing had cultivated an extraordinary Cultivation Method. Truly worthy of being a master who dared to openly attack the forces of various nations; even their master, Bing Chengzi, couldn't match his insight. He was incredibly skilled.

Even Yan Zhuixing's usually calm eyes showed a hint of emotion, and the others, not being inexperienced newcomers, quickly concealed it. However, such an obvious reaction caught the attention of Guan Zhongkai and Yu Landu, who exchanged a knowing glance.

"Senior, you flatter me. The cultivation Method Formula I use is nothing special; it is Cultivation Method passed down from the Myriad Demon Palace in the Huaxia Cultivation World," Yan Zhuixing explained.

"Passed down through generations, my Chou Wuyuan a disciple of the Myriad Demon Palace? Is he inferior to you in the Blade Drawing Tournament?" Yue Qianchou also noticed something from the brief shock of the others and knew that he had guessed correctly.

He glanced at Guan Zhongkai and Yu Landu out of the corner of his eye, then shook his head at Yan Zhuixing and said, "Boy, you may be able to fool others, but you can't fool my eyes. Although I don't know what kind of cultivation Cultivation Method you are practicing, if the Myriad Demon Palace had such Cultivation Method, I'm afraid the entire Cultivation World would have already submitted to the Myriad Demon Palace. All the so-called top ten experts in the Cultivation World would have to stand aside."

These words were truly terrifying. Guan Zhongkai and Yu Landu stared intently at Yan Zhuixing with eyes like hawks. What a joke! This kid actually possessed a peerless Cultivation Method that even the top ten masters of the Cultivation World would have to side with! Didn't Niu Youde say it was Cultivation Method that could make the entire Cultivation World submit?

Man Hu and the others were shocked again. Niu Youde was truly amazing; everything he said was accurate. The Demon Codex was indeed a heaven-defying technique. They deeply regretted staying in Lan City this time, and even more so, they shouldn't have encountered Niu Youde. This was a huge problem; once this news got out, the consequences were unimaginable.

The four brothers, though outwardly relaxed, kept their eyes subtly fixed on Guan Zhongkai and Yu Landu. If it weren't for the presence of the formidable Niu Youde, they would have killed them on the spot to silence them and prevent the two from revealing their secret.

"Senior, you've taken this joke too far. If word gets out, I won't be able to handle it!" Yan Zhuixing said with a smile, but in his heart he wished he could kill this person.

But as things stand, even if he had ten times the courage, he wouldn't dare. A person's reputation precedes them; at least so far, no one has ever seen someone as powerful as Niu Youde. When he met Wen Lanfeng at the Wen family's sacred land, even Wen Lanfeng couldn't recognize him, but Niu Youde did. His cultivation level is unimaginable. No wonder he dares to cause trouble in the Cultivation World; without considerable skill, who would dare!

"Hehe! Don't be nervous, I was just saying it casually. As for whether it's true or not, you and I both know the truth, there's no need to argue anymore." Yue Qianchou shrugged indifferently and said, "Whether you make the entire Cultivation World submit or not has nothing to do with me. Anyway, I'm all alone and I'm not competing with anyone for fame or fortune. Haha! I'll just watch the show."

"Senior is quite the joker." Man Hu stepped forward, cupped his hands, and said, "We have other matters to attend to, so we will take our leave now." The group bowed to Yue Qianchou together, knowing that they should not linger here any longer.

"Go ahead!" Yue Qianchou raised his hand, looking indifferent.

Without a word, the group quickly left. Yue Qianchou was still smiling when Guan Zhongkai, who was standing to the side, couldn't help but bow and ask, "Senior, what you just said was all true?"

"The truth will out, and falsehood will become truth. We'll see in time. You'll see if you don't believe me! That kid will be... tsk tsk! Never mind." Yue Qianchou suddenly frowned and said with some curiosity, "Judging from the way these four late Tribulation Transcendence stage Transcending experts act, they seem to value Yan Zhuixing a lot! Their words and actions revolve around him. Did they already know all along?"

His reminder jolted the two men, instantly recalling something common knowledge among all factions. They had long found it strange that Bing Chengzi's side held the Yan family father and son in such high regard. Especially Yan Zhuixing; Bing Chengzi's disciples were practically inseparable from him, protecting him every step of the way...

Guan Zhongkai suddenly realized something and eagerly cupped his hands, saying, "Senior, I have something to attend to and will be leaving for a while. I'll be back shortly." Yu Landu did the same.

Judging from their expressions, they seemed afraid that Yue Qianchou would refuse. Yue Qianchou smiled faintly and sighed, "I know what you're planning, but is it really necessary? Why bother with such trivial matters? If the sky falls, someone taller will hold it up. Don't blame me for not warning you, I just exposed Yan Zhuixing's true colors. Although they can't do anything to me, they might not be afraid of you. With you by my side, they certainly won't dare to touch you, but once you leave me, they might just try to silence you. Of course, if you insist on going back to report, I suggest you two not separate, but go together, going from house to house, it will be safer."

Yue Qianchou was naturally worried that something might happen to the two of them. If these two eyewitnesses died, and if anything came out of Niu Youde's mouth, who wasn't exactly a good person, even if it was true, others might not believe it. That's why he reminded them, lest all his efforts be wasted.

"Thank you for the reminder, senior!" The two bowed in unison, exchanged a glance and nodded, then darted out through the back door of the restaurant.

"Yan Zhuixing! Yan Zhuixing! You haven't tasted the thrill of being chased yet! I've had my fill, brother. How can we, your sworn enemies, be biased? Let you have some fun too, otherwise I'd feel bad for you, and I'd also like to watch the show." Yue Qianchou muttered to himself, a lewd smile spreading across his face. He slowly strolled to the door, pulled out a large ingot of gold, tossed it directly to the smiling shopkeeper, and waved his hand, saying, "Continue with your business, I won't disturb you any longer."
