Feng Qing'er, Arrogant to the Extreme

Deep within the poisonous barrier, Yang Shan opened his eyes and silently placed a screenshot of Feng Qing'er's panel and some data that was only a rough estimate and did not yet have actual data into his file notes.

The maturity level of the Ten Thousand Serpent Spirit Flower has just jumped from "998" to "999".

Yang Shan didn't know when he would be fully mature.

However, Feng Qing'er was too fast, and the clone couldn't hold out for long.

"Looks like I'll have to go see her again."

Yang Shan had no intention of impersonating anyone.

In case of a conflict with Feng Qing'er, then I'll have to use my Dou Technique.

From now on, in the Wind and Thunder Pavilion, we'll see each other all the time, and I'll always be recognized.

Since it will eventually be exposed, there's no need to deliberately lie about it.

The snake-like monsters around here have been mostly cleared out.

There might be some third or fourth-tier snakes, but with the protection of the Dark Soul Mist, the safety of the Ten Thousand Serpent Spirit Flower is absolutely guaranteed.

Feng Qing'er failed to catch up with the clone, but she did not forget the purpose of her trip.

So she immediately changed direction and continued flying deeper into the Ten Thousand Serpent Gorge.

Just as Feng Qing'er was about to approach the poison barrier area, she saw a young man walk out of the poison barrier, his face slightly pale.

Feng Qing'er did not land on the ground, but looked down:

"You... you are Yang Shan?"

This single action alone reveals just how arrogant Feng Qing'er is.

Feng Qing'er's public identity is that of Thunder Lord's personal disciple, which is lower than Yang Shan's status as "Young Pavilion Master".

But Feng Qing'er's behavior made it seem as if she were the Young Pavilion Master.

Yang Shan was not surprised.

If Feng Qing'er's personality is not much different from that in the original work, then this behavior is normal for her.

In the original novel, Feng Qing'er is the only "breath of fresh air" among all the female characters, including the supporting female characters.

The other female characters, regardless of their initial state, will develop feelings for Xiao Yan as the story progresses.

Feng Qing'er is the only female character in the original novel who had multiple encounters with Xiao Yan but never developed any affection for him. She was the only one whose sole purpose was to "defeat Xiao Yan"Xiao Yan from beginning to end! It's as if Feng Qing'er possessed a special protective shield, completely blocking out Xiao Yan's invincible charm in the original story!

She suffered a loss at Xiao Yan's Xiao Yan the first time they met. The second time, she directly fought Xiao Yan Xiao Yan and forced him to use all his trump cards before she was defeated due to excessive exhaustion.

From that moment on, Feng Qing'er has been trying every means to improve herself, just in order to get back at Xiao Yan and win fair and square!

Among all the female characters in the original novel, Feng Qing'er is jokingly referred to as the most "ambitious" and "devoted"! Her pride is beyond comprehension! Even in the later stages of the story, when she could no longer keep up with Xiao Yan's pace, she still did not despair or break down.

This is a woman even Xiao Yan couldn't win over! And in the game, as an NPC from the original novel, Feng Qing'er's stats have definitely been enhanced.

Its difficulty level made Yang Shan's scalp tingle.

Until we can kill Feng Qing'er quietly, it's best not to provoke this woman.

If I lose to her, I'll probably be ridiculed every time I see her in the Wind and Thunder Pavilion.

If you beat her, it will only make things more complicated; you'll most likely become her target to catch up with!

Yang Shan smiled and said:

"Judging from your appearance, if you haven't been impersonated, you must be the Sect Master's personal disciple, Miss Feng Qing'er, right?"

Feng Qing'er said calmly:

"In the Northern Region, no one dares to impersonate me!"

It has to be said, Feng Qing'er's arrogance right now is really asking for trouble! Yang Shan is a tough, manly guy, how can he tolerate this?

We have no choice but to spoil them!

There was no other way; Yang Shan didn't want to be targeted by Feng Qing'er.

Once you take action, you'll lose money no matter how you calculate it.

Following his principle of avoiding provoking Feng Qing'er, Yang Shan planned out the content of the conversation in his mind, then nodded and smiled at Feng Qing'er, "Even so, Miss Feng Qing'er, why don't we come down and talk? Talking like this is a bit tiring."

Feng Qing'er hesitated for a moment before falling from mid-air.

Yang Shan: "???"

This plot isn't right!

In Yang Shan's judgment, the proud and arrogant Feng Qing'er should continue to give him attitude and even take the initiative to provoke him.

Why did it fall down?

Yang Shan had even anticipated what Feng Qing'er would say next and had thought about what he would say in response.

Did I waste my brain cells?

Feng Qing'er landed in front of Yang Shan and looked Yang Shan over for a while. "Are you poisoned?"

Yang Shan didn't want Feng Qing'er to know that he was completely immune to the poison barrier, so he took a "Hundred Poison Pill" from his Storage Ring and swallowed it.

The name "Hundred Poison Pill" sounds impressive, but in reality, its effect on Yang Shan is quite limited.

It deducts 1 point of health per second for one hour, and the outward manifestation is that the face will become slightly pale.

This is an essential prop for any movie star.

Yang Shan said honestly, "The poisonous barrier inside is very troublesome. Even with my protective lightning, I was still significantly affected."

Feng Qing'er: "What about the Demon Snake Xia Mang?"

Yang Shan: "I killed him."

Feng Qing'er was taken aback. "You can kill Xia Mang?"

Feng Qing'er was confident in approaching Xia Mang because she was Ancient Beast, which gave her an extraordinary ability to suppress the Thousand Beast King, and she also had many trump cards.

But now, a peer of hers has also been able to kill Xia Mang! Yang Shan: "Yes, Miss Feng Qing'er, could it be that you've also come for Xia Mang?"

Feng Qing'er's answer was also very honest:

"That's true, but since you killed Xia Mang, let's just let it go."

Feng Qing'er's gaze remained fixed on Yang Shan's face, which made Yang Shan wary.

Wind and Thunder Pavilion has never been able to explore the poisonous barrier area deep within Ten Thousand Serpent Gorge.

Now that Xia Mang is dead, wouldn't Feng Qing'er be curious about what treasures might be hidden within this poisonous barrier? Feng Qing'er spoke again:

"Since you killed Xia Mang, I won't go into this poisonous barrier."

Yang Shan: "???"

In just a few words, Yang Shan had predicted Feng Qing'er's words and actions twice, and both times he was wrong! Shouldn't Feng Qing'er have threatened him to obediently step aside, or handed over what she obtained from the poisonous barrier and then let him go? Yang Shan felt that he might have misunderstood Feng Qing'er.

No! To be precise, he underestimated Feng Qing'er's arrogance.

Feng Qing'er had become so arrogant that she felt it was beneath her dignity to lay a hand on someone who was poisoned!

That's great!

Yang Shan secretly gave Feng Qing'er a thumbs up in his heart.

OK!

As expected, she is the most ambitious young woman in Battle Through the Heavens! But Feng Qing'er's next words almost choked Yang Shan.

"Chen Zhanghao perished a thousand years ago. I advise you not to take your status Young Pavilion Master too seriously."

Feng Qing'er spoke as if she were lecturing, "The Wind and Thunder Pavilion is no longer the same Wind and Thunder Pavilion that Chen Zhanghao originally established. The position of Pavilion Master is not something you can covet. If you withdraw from the Wind and Thunder Pavilion now, I can grant you some spiritual items to help you go further at the Dou Zong level."

"Otherwise, you will only suffer at my hands and become a stray dog."

Well, she was being so generous just now, and now she's kicking people out! But Yang Shan actually approves of Feng Qing'er's approach.

Arrogant as they may be, at least they have some sense of reason. They didn't take advantage of my vulnerability and were even willing to offer severance pay! They do have some conscience.

Without the opportunity presented by Mystic Wrath Thunder Lord, Yang Shan Yang Shan would still have to stay in the Wind and Thunder Pavilion! Although Feng Qing'er Feng Qing'er reasonable enough, her attitude really annoyed him.

Only Feng Qing'er is not from the Northwest Continent.

Otherwise, she could easily find out what kind of existence "Blade Sovereign" is by asking around.

Those who try to show off in front of True Lord Yang are either overgrown with weeds or have been beaten so badly they've lost their temper and bent over.

Even Nalan Yanran and Yue Mei, they all wanted to throw themselves at him but didn't know what tricks to use!

Yang Wanwan, the Blade Sovereign, was simply following his heart!

Anyone who annoys him, he'll annoy them in return! Generosity is for friends, stinginess is for strangers.

Feng Qing'er is arrogant, but is he, Blade Sovereign, not arrogant? He's not her biological father, why should he spoil her? So, facing Feng Qing'er's threats and attempts to dissuade him, Yang Shan still smiled calmly, "Thank you for your kindness, Miss Feng Qing'er, but you dared to curse my master. I don't mind giving you a profound lesson!"

Despite Yang Shan's strong reaction, Feng Qing'er remained disdainful:

"I've already told you everything, are you still going to stubbornly insist? Tch, fine. After all, you come from a barren land, your perspective is limited. I've already advised you, next time, I won't hold back."

Feng Qing'er didn't give Yang Shan another chance to speak, nor did she ask whether Yan Mei was dead or alive. She lightly tiptoed and leaped into the air, flying far away in the blink of an eye.

Yang Shan shook his head and turned to walk into the poison barrier.

Although he hadn't exchanged many words with Feng Qing'er just now, Yang Shan had already analyzed a lot of things with his Yang Shan mind.

Firstly, as a member of the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan, Feng Qing'er must be able to obtain more secret information from within the clan.

However, she referred to Mystic Wrath Thunder Lord as "Chen Zhanghao" instead of "Lei Zhanghao".

This shows that even within the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan, the true identity of Mystic Wrath Thunder Lord was unknown.

Therefore, the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan believed that Mystic Wrath Thunder Lord had died a thousand years ago, and that's why Feng Qing'er was certain that Yang Shan only wanted to use the deceased's reputation and the Young Pavilion Master's status to plot for the position of master.

Secondly, Feng Qing'er said that the current Wind and Thunder Pavilion is no longer the Wind and Thunder Pavilion that Mystic Wrath Thunder Lord originally established.

The Wind and Thunder Pavilion has always had a close relationship with the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan, but the specific extent of this relationship is not explained in the original novel or in the ""Battle Through the Heavens Encyclopedia"".

But Feng Qing'er said that Yang Shan should not be allowed to vie for the position of Pavilion Master.

Furthermore, within the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan, there is actually more than one Ninth Order Magical Beast (Dou Sheng).

In other words, the power of the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan is overwhelming that of the Wind and Thunder Pavilion. The two are completely unequal in strength, making it difficult for them to establish a cooperative relationship.

Based on the above information, Yang Shan has every reason to speculate that the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan actually wants to use the Wind and Thunder Pavilion as a channel to gain a foothold in the human race's territory and thus acquire more resources!

This explains why Feng Qing'er, the little genius of the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan, wanted to become Thunder Lord's personal disciple.

If we analyze it according to this line of thought...

Thunder Lord obtained enough resources from the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan, then acted out a play with them to make Feng Qing'er Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan Pavilion Master, thus transforming the Wind and Thunder Pavilion into a subordinate force of the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan in the human realm.

After all, if the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan were to openly plunder resources in human territory, it would easily attract the attention of some of the top human forces.

"So, from the moment I agreed to Mystic Wrath Thunder Lord's request, Feng Qing'er and I were destined to be enemies!"

Yang Shan was somewhat troubled:

"No wonder she became the Young Pavilion Master so easily. So that's how AI Nüwa arranged it! Now I'm not only blocking Feng Qing'er's path, but I also have to offend the entire Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan, right?"

Yang Shan was both amused and exasperated.

"I'm just a Dou Zong, is it really necessary?"

However, it's unlikely that AI Nüwa would make such an arrangement that leaves no room for resistance.

Ultimately, the most important thing about games is the player's gaming experience.

With Mystic Wrath Thunder Lord backing him up, the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan shouldn't be so shameless as to send out Dou Zun expert to target him.

"What's Thunder Lord's attitude now? He at least has a 2-point favorability rating towards me now."

The information available so far is still too limited, so Yang Shan can only take it one step at a time and gather as much information as possible to ensure his smooth development.

The best thing to do is to find a branch of the Soul Hall or find Xiao Xun'er and ask my dear senior for help!

Yang Shan stayed in the poisonous barrier for another three days before the Ten Thousand Serpent Spirit Flower fully matured.

Yang Shan the most expensive container in his hand to store it, ensuring that the medicinal power of the Ten Thousand Serpent Spirit Flower would not be lost in the slightest.

Despite some setbacks, the matter of Ten Thousand Serpent Gorge was eventually resolved.

The next step is to extract the last remaining value from the Ten Thousand Serpent Gorge.

Yang Shan returned to Phoenix Perch Mountain as quickly as possible and found Fei Tian.

"What? You killed the Demon Snake Xia Mang?"

The Fourth Pavilion Master Fei Tian, initially thought he had misheard.

But when Fei Tian saw Yang Shan take out the head of the Demon Snake Xia Mang from his Storage Ring, he couldn't help but swallow hard.

This head is a quest item; it has no attributes and is simply proof of a kill.

Fei Tian looked at Yang Shan with a hint of surprise and suspicion.

He had fought against the Demon Snake Xia Mang.

With Fei Tian's cultivation level of Eight-Star Dou Zong, he only had a 60% chance of winning at most, and killing Xia Mang in a one-on-one situation was even more impossible! Now, however, he had his head chopped off by a One-Star Dou Zong.

Fortunately, Yang Shan remained relatively low-key and used Extraterrestrial Ghoul Lightning.

Otherwise, if Fei Tian knew that he had jumped from One-Star Dou Zong to Three-Star Dou Zong in just ten days, this senior would probably wonder if he had wasted the previous hundred years.

Fei Tian: "As expected of the Young Pavilion Master, your skills are beyond my reach!"

Yang Shan smiled faintly:

"Fourth Pavilion Master, there's no need to praise me like that. I was just lucky to run into the enemy of that Demon Snake Xia Mang who came looking for him, and I just picked up the scraps."

"I should have dealt with all the other Seventh-Rank Magical Beast in Ten Thousand Serpent Gorge. Fourth Pavilion Master, can I consider my mission complete?"

Fei Tian nodded:

"Of course, Young Pavilion Master, please wait a moment, I will go and process your mission reward immediately!"

Yang Shan: "Fourth Pavilion Master, please wait. I actually have something I'd like to discuss with you."

Fei Tian respectfully replied, "Young Pavilion Master, please feel free to give any instructions. I will do my best to carry them out."

Yang Shan: "I wanted to discuss with the Fourth Pavilion Master whether he would be interested in buying 15% of the profits from Ten Thousand Serpent Gorge. The price is negotiable!"
