A Narrow Road for Enemies

Yi Yun sat by the window, hearing the voices of the Lihuo Sect members and the enforcement team approaching, but remained motionless in his seat.

Yi Yun had already sensed their approach as they marched toward the Six Swords Inn, but he simply sat there quietly, waiting for them to arrive.

He also knew that A'niu and A'yu were both on the third level of the Six Swords Alliance. A'yu's cousin was so frightened that he was ashen-faced and trembling all over. He kept dragging A'yu A'niu along, planning to escape in the chaos.

As for the people from the Lihuo Sect and the enforcement team, their angry gazes felt like needles piercing their bodies. The martial artists watching also pointed and whispered about them while waiting to see a good show, uttering words like "arrogant" and "conceited."

As the center of this vortex, Yi Yun seemed to have nothing to do with it; he simply covered the teacup with his hand.

The way he's acting now is exactly like that of a young prodigy who has achieved early success and is arrogant and overbearing.

His gaze was defiant and arrogant, one could even say it showed disdain for everyone.

Many scions of powerful families, due to their superior abilities and privileged backgrounds, become accustomed to being the center of the world in their youth and thus become arrogant and disdainful of everyone.

If they were to venture out into the world like this, they might become as arrogant as Yi Yun is now.

Yi Yun has lived two lives. His previous life was ordinary, but in this life he was born in Yunhuang and endured many hardships. Although he later went to the Tai'a Divine Kingdom, he was still a novice in martial arts there and his strength was very weak. He had to be careful and not be too ostentatious.

As for later, when the Shepherd Boy invaded Tai'a and Shentu Nantian appeared, Yi Yun was walking on thin ice at every step. Even so, he was almost tortured to death by Shentu Nantian!

Later, he came to the Tianyuan Realm, where he was caught in the power struggles between various major forces, and he survived in the cracks.

Throughout his life, Yi Yun has always maintained a low profile. Aside from occasionally causing trouble behind people's backs, he appears to be a steady and composed person.

But in reality, deep down, Yi Yun was suppressing the youthful passion that he had always had to restrain because of his own weakness!

Whether in his past life or this one, he had always longed for the life of those extraordinary figures, living a life of unbridled power and looking down on everything! That was the true joy of life!

Now, he has a new identity and his strength has increased by leaps and bounds. He has enough strength and trump cards to control his own destiny. As a result, his suppressed passion has been released to its fullest extent!

Those who practice martial arts endure countless hardships and life-or-death dangers, risking their lives at any moment. They suppress their desires and endure decades of solitude and seclusion. Isn't all of this so that, after achieving great strength, they can act as they please and exact revenge at will?

In this world, everything depends on personal preference.

Follow your heart's desires and do whatever you want!

"Smack!"

Yi Yun put down his teacup, the crisp sound of the porcelain clinking echoing throughout the teahouse, seemingly causing the entire floor to tremble slightly, yet the teacup did not break.

Many people were startled, some even taking a step back, but they were quickly angered by their overreaction.

It's just a teacup that broke, what's the big deal?

"Stop pretending! You're about to die!"

Gongsun Yang and Gongsun Zhi remained silent, but the horse-faced youth beside them suddenly shouted excitedly.

The person who had crippled him, whom he wished he could tear to pieces, was right in front of him, and his powerful backer was standing beside him. How could the horse-faced youth possibly remain calm?

He pointed at Yi Yun's figure and said to Gongsun Yang, "Young Master Yang, this is the brat! Kill him!"

Kill?

Gongsun Yang's eyelids twitched. The more he looked at the figure in front of him, the more familiar it seemed, reminding him of someone.

The person in his memory left a huge psychological shadow on Gongsun Yang. He had never been held like that before, beaten as if he were trampling on an insect.

Yes, it was a beating, not a fight. The difference in strength between the two sides was too great...

This even made Gongsun Yang begin to doubt his own life. They were both at the Dao Seed Realm, both geniuses, but how could the gap between them be so vast?

After two months of recuperation, Gongsun Yang finally emerged from the shadows. However, just when he was about to make a name for himself and relieve his frustration, he encountered a figure that gave him this sense of familiarity.

Just as he was about to confirm, the horse-faced youth, with an unexpected burst of strength, managed to stand up halfway. He excitedly pointed at Gongsun Yang and arrogantly said to Yi Yun, "You ignorant barbarian, do you know who this is? This is Gongsun Yang, the young genius of our Lihuo Sect! With his talent, he'll soon be able to enter the Heavenly Dao Alliance. A country bumpkin like you wouldn't even need to think about such a thing."

"I advise you not to resist. Just obediently wash your neck and wait to die. Perhaps our Young Master Yang will take pity on you and let you die a more dignified death!"

The horse-faced youth's voice reached the ears of everyone around him. He was praising Gongsun Yang so enthusiastically because he knew Gongsun Yang's status in the Lihuo Sect.

If Gongsun Yang could join the Heavenly Dao Alliance, he would have more influence. If he could grasp this lifeline and Gongsun Yang could say a few good words for him among the higher-ups of the Lihuo Sect, he might be saved.

Upon hearing the horse-faced youth's flattery, Gongsun Yang was at a loss for words. He himself enjoyed being praised in public, but the familiar figure made Gongsun Yang feel a little guilty.

However, he didn't stop the horse-faced youth from continuing. He felt that things couldn't possibly be that coincidental.

"The Tianyuan Realm is so vast, I refuse to believe I'll encounter him twice..."

With this thought in mind, Gongsun Yang felt a little more confident and shouted, "Boy, you caused trouble at the Lihuo Sect's shop. Today, I will execute you!"

No sooner had Gongsun Yang finished speaking than the figure drinking tea turned slightly to the side and asked, "Oh? How do you plan to execute me?"

Buzz!

The voice was like a death warrant, and Gongsun Yang's eyes immediately went blank.

That voice... could it be...?

At this moment, the horse-faced man revealed a ferocious and twisted expression. "It seems you won't shed tears until you see the coffin! You don't know the immensity of heaven and earth, and you really think you're invincible. Our Young Master Yang will teach you a lesson and let you, this barbarian from the South Sea, know what it means to be a frog in a well!"

The South China Sea! A growing sense of foreboding crept into Gongsun Yang's heart!

At that moment, the figure finally turned around, and that familiar face made every muscle in his body tense up.

It really is him!!

Gongsun Yang felt as if he had been struck by lightning, his entire body going numb.

His hidden injuries suddenly began to ache faintly.

Gongsun Yang's face twitched, but everyone's eyes were focused on Yi Yun, and no one noticed.

The young man with the long face was still shouting, while the members of the law enforcement team were also eager to fight.

Gongsun Yang was completely frozen in place, unable to utter a single word.

Back then, he knew that even the elders of their Lineage had fallen at this man's hands!
