Chapter 271

With the addition of the Valley Master, under normal circumstances, as a top-tier power in the Central Continent, no force or individual would dare to easily provoke them.

Unless they don't want to live anymore.

"Yes, Elder."

Because of the elder's words, the disciples of Fenyang Valley also appeared to be learning from him.

After settling the disciples in, the elder seemed to have received some notification and gave them a warning before quickly transforming into a streak of light and heading to the main hall.

Here, Great Elder of Fenyang Valley and Valley Master Tang Zhen have appeared, but a beautiful red-haired girl has also appeared with Tang Zhen.

"Greetings, Valley Master."

The elders bowed to Tang Zhen above, their faces extremely solemn. The situation had been too sudden and the commotion too great, so they had to take it seriously.

While it's unlikely that anyone would be so reckless as to attack Fenyang Valley under normal circumstances, who can say for sure?

"We notified you to come here because of what happened earlier."

Tang Zhen waved his hand, dismissing the formalities, and with an extremely serious expression, he scanned the elders below and said in a deep voice, "Immediately notify all disciples of Fenyang Valley to prepare to activate the mountain-protecting array at any time."

"Yes."

The elders exchanged glances. Although they felt that Tang Zhen was being a bit too nervous, and although the commotion was quite significant, their Fenyang Valley was not to be trifled with and had nothing to fear from anyone.

Moreover, it's still unclear what exactly happened. Perhaps it was just an accident, a simple shooting star, or perhaps it was a stroke of luck.

However, being cautious is perfectly fine.

"Second Elder and Third Elder will remain in Fenyang Valley; the other elders will come out of the valley with me shortly..."

As he assigned the tasks, Tang Zhen thought for a moment and then added a sentence.

"If necessary, go and invite the Supreme Elder out."

Thinking about what he had just sensed, Tang Zhen was not entirely at ease. Such a powerful expert had suddenly appeared near their Fenyang Valley and had even displayed such a powerful attack.

It's hard not to make him think the worst.

"Ask the Supreme Elder to come out of seclusion? Valley Master, isn't that making a mountain out of a molehill? There's no need to trouble the Ancestor, is there?"

"Yes, the ancestor instructed us not to disturb him unless absolutely necessary, otherwise it would be difficult to explain, and..."

Hearing Tang Zhen's final addition, the elders were all getting restless. If the patriarch had to intervene with just a commotion, what face did they have left?

Moreover, the patriarch's intervention will undoubtedly have a significant impact on the major powers in the Central Continent.

The Supreme Elder, Old Ancestor Huo Yun, is the ancestor of Burning Flame Valley and the former Valley Master. As the most senior and powerful figure in Fenyang Valley, he has long since retired from worldly affairs.

It was inconvenient for them to take action, so they naturally dared not disturb them easily.

"Making a mountain out of a molehill? Do you think I want to disturb our ancestor?"

Tang Zhen glanced at everyone present expressionlessly and stated his discovery directly: he was the strongest person in the entire Fenyang Valley besides the Supreme Elder, Peak Five-Star Dou Zun.

But even he felt a sense of fear from that shooting star earlier.

He is definitely not a Dou Zun level being; he is most likely a Dou Sheng.

An unfamiliar Battle Saint appeared near Fenyang Valley and even made a move here, making it hard not to worry that something unexpected might happen.

"How is this possible... It's actually a Dou Sheng level expert? Valley Master, you're not mistaken, are you?"

"But my Fenyang Valley hasn't provoked anyone recently, except for Ice Lotus Valley, but I haven't heard of any Dou Sheng experts in Ice Lotus Valley."

Upon hearing Tang Zhen's words, the elders were shocked, for even in the Central Continent, it was rare to find a Dou Sheng expert.

The last time a Dou Sheng expert made a move was some unknown time ago; on the surface, the Dou Zun was the highest level of existence.

How could a Dou Sheng level expert suddenly appear?

If they were enemies, the only thing they could think of was their sworn enemy, Ice Lotus Valley, but they had never heard of any Dou Sheng powerhouses in Ice Lotus Valley.

"So you mean I'm old and my eyes are failing me?"

No, I wouldn't dare.

The elders quickly shook their heads.

"Then do as I instruct."

After speaking, Tang Zhen turned to look at his daughter, his gaze softening.

"Huo'er, if anything seems amiss, immediately go to the place I told you to go, understand?"

"Father, is the situation really that bad?"

Tang Huo'er was confused when she heard this. Everything was fine. Her Fenyang Valley was a top-tier power. Why did it suddenly seem like it was about to be destroyed?

"I also hope it's not what I thought, but just an accident, but we must prepare for the worst."

Tang Zhen sighed; he wished it were just a false alarm.

Speaking of the power of the three valleys in the Central Continent, the Fenyang Valley is actually the most powerful. The other two valleys, Flower Valley and Ice Lotus Valley, do not have any true Battle Saint level experts.

Even so, Fenyang Valley remains extremely low-key, because if it were too high-profile, it would be targeted by Soul Lake, and then it would be a loss.

This is also why the Supreme Elder almost never shows his face; for Soul Pool, a force without a Dou Sheng is a good force.

Even to outsiders, the Supreme Elder was actually already dead.

After all, he is too old.

Therefore, he was unwilling to let his ancestor take action unless absolutely necessary.

"I hope it's just a false alarm."

He had also wondered if it was some kind of extraordinary treasure appearing in the world, or some kind of accident, but he didn't dare to gamble.

After giving instructions to his daughter, Tang Zhen took a step and appeared directly outside the Fenyang Valley. He then led a group of elders to the location where the meteor had fallen earlier.

"This should be it."

Not long after arriving at their location, Tang Zhen looked at the situation below and felt a sense of unease.

No trace of any Dou Sheng powerhouse was found; only three girls emerged from within, and their strength... seemed to be the same as that of ordinary people. The other two were only Dou Huang and Dou Wang, respectively.

Could it be that the commotion just now was really an accident, and he was overthinking it?

But that attack was clearly a genuine surpassing of the power of a Dou Zun.

"Let's go down and take a look."

After a moment of silence, Tang Zhen led his men to appear directly in front of the three people below.

The sudden appearance of these people startled Little Fairy Doctor and Zhiyan, but they quickly recovered. Little Fairy Doctor, in particular, stepped in front of Yunli and Zhiyan and drew her divine sword.

"Who are you people, and what do you want?!"

"Little girl, you..."

Faced with the three people in front of him, an elder stepped forward and was about to say something in his usual condescending manner, but Tang Zhen stopped him with a gesture.

"Don't be nervous. Did you three girls see anyone else here just now? Or perhaps something else? Like that shooting star just now...?"

62

Chapter 62 You wouldn't want anything to happen to your daughter, would you?

"Shooting star? We don't know..."

Upon hearing Tang Zhen's question, Little Fairy Doctor and Zhiyan exchanged glances, realizing that it was indeed because of Yun Li's earlier commotion that they had been drawn here.

However, they weren't going to reveal it; who knew what kind of people these were?

Especially from Tang Zhen, who was in charge, both Little Fairy Doctor and Zhiyan felt a sense of instinctive fear. This person was definitely not simple.

"Don't know? Then how did you get here? And unharmed?!"

The people of Fenyang Valley were naturally dissatisfied with Little Fairy Doctor's answer. One elder even stepped forward, emanating the aura of a Dou Zong expert.

This is clearly just a perfunctory response.

Even the Valley Master felt fear from that meteor attack and needed the Supreme Elder to intervene to have any confidence. The three people before him were at most Dou Huang level; how could they have survived such an attack? They must have experienced something or found something.

There might even be some great opportunity.

"..."

Faced with the pressure of the Dou Zong powerhouse, Xiao Yi Xian and Zhiyan instantly felt as if Mount Tai was pressing down on them, and their bodies instinctively wanted to collapse.

This person's strength is at least a five-star Dou Zong, far surpassing that of the Great Elder of the Jia Nan Academy.

However, Zhiyan and the other two did not succumb to the pressure. Instead, they gritted their teeth and stood up straight, resisting his imposing aura.

Neither Zhiyan nor Xiaoyixian are simply Douhuang or Douwang, which is not enough to suppress them unless they are even more powerful Douzun.

"Hmph! You want to fight?"

Seeing the scene before her, Yun Li snorted coldly, stepped forward and blocked Little Fairy Doctor and Zhiyan. The pressure of the Emanator level directly erased the Dou Zong aura and enveloped the people of Fenyang Valley in front of her.

The expressions of these high-ranking elders of Fenyang Valley, along with Valley Master Tang Zhen, all changed instantly.

Apart from Tang Zhen, the surrounding elders all knelt down uncontrollably.

Although Tang Zhen did not kneel down, he could only grit his teeth and try to hold on, but he could not straighten his body no matter what.

Yun Li crossed her arms, and despite being shorter than these people, she made them look up to her or have to lower their heads.

Before becoming Emanator, these Battle Venerables and Battle Saints could bully her, but now that she's Emanator, they're still bullying her. Isn't it a waste of her Points to become Emanator?

"You... we..."

The kneeling elders gripped the ground tightly with their hands, their hearts filled with terror. They couldn't understand why the girl before them possessed such terrifying pressure, a pressure that surpassed even that of the Valley Master, and it felt utterly dreadful to them.

Could it be that the girl in front of us is the Dou Sheng powerhouse that the Valley Master guessed?

But how could this be? She was clearly just a little girl who looked twelve or thirteen years old. How could a little girl be a Dou Sheng level expert?

Haven't all these people wasted their lives all these years?

Even in the legends of the Central Continent, it is absolutely impossible for such a small Dou Zun or Dou Sheng to exist; no matter how talented a person is, it is impossible.

Which Dou Zun or Dou Sheng didn't achieve success after a long period of time and experience?

But Yun Li's aura was undeniable, leaving them no choice but to believe it.

If they had known that the girl in front of them was that Battle Saint, they should have been more polite earlier. All the elders couldn't help but look reproachfully at the elder who had released the pressure first.

The elder felt wronged, as he couldn't sense any fighting spirit in Yun Li and assumed she was just an ordinary person.

As elders of the Fenyang Valley, they were used to being high and mighty, and would teach others a lesson at the slightest disagreement.

Or rather, this isn't just a habit of the Fenyang Valley; in fact, the Fenyang Valley is considered quite polite. In the entire Dou Huo Continent, who among those with strength and background doesn't behave this way?

Facing someone stronger than himself, a Dou Huang level expert was terrifyingly powerful!

Facing someone weaker than himself, even a mere Dou Huang dares to stand before him?

"Miss, Saint...please have mercy. It was our rudeness. Please give us a chance to apologize."

Feeling the pressure on him lessen, Tang Zhen quickly cupped his hands to Yun Li, disregarding the fact that the girl in front of him looked younger than his own daughter, and humbly lowered his head.

In this world, what matters is strength, not age.

Although it's impossible to determine whether the girl in front of her is a Dou Sheng (Battle Saint) level expert, she is definitely not someone a Dou Zun (Battle Venerable) can handle.

As for the ancestor, if we can avoid taking action, let's try to resolve this peacefully.

"Are you from Fenyang Valley?"

Yun Li was fairly satisfied with Tang Zhen's performance, and stopped releasing her pressure. With a wave of her hand, she suppressed her aura.

The people in front of them instantly felt their bodies relax and regain their strength.

"Thank you for showing mercy. We are from the Fenyang Valley. May we ask your esteemed title, Saint?"

Even if Tang Zhen racked his brains, he couldn't come up with any information related to such a young Dou Sheng.

However, he guessed that the girl in front of him was definitely not as young as she looked; her real age must be that of an old monster.

The appearance is probably just due to the technique or other reasons.

Thinking about it this way, he was able to accept it somewhat, otherwise it would have been too unbelievable.

"What saint or not, my name is Yun Li."
