Countless people watched as the furious Senior Zhou retreated to the side with a smile, their faces filled with astonishment.
This time, even the cultivators who had previously doubted the rumors about Yun La and the others all shut their mouths, their eyes flashing with surprise and uncertainty.
The Five Clans were once so powerful in North Isle, but now, facing Yun La and his group, they could only suppress their tempers, which made Yun La and his group even more mysterious.
With the qualities of Yun La and the others, what conditions couldn't they meet? Why would they travel thousands of miles to North Isle to find Heaven-Favored Person?
How many people do the Third Holy Maiden of Jade Pool in the Western Region need to find?
What is the purpose of searching for so many Heaven-Favored Person?
On the streets, on rooftops, in the mountains and in the sky, countless people watched the unfolding events with bated breath, all remaining silent and not daring to utter a sound. Whether it was the people of the Five Clans or Yun La and the others, they were all the most astonishing beings in this great upheaval of heaven and earth, and none of them were easy to mess with.
Just then, someone shouted, " Yang Zhen is here!"
Upon hearing this, countless people shuddered and almost simultaneously turned to look in the direction from which the voice came, including Yun La and his group of four, who all looked at Yang Zhen with curiosity.
Senior Zhou snorted coldly and stepped aside, intending to stand idly by.
Although things didn't go according to Senior Zhou's original plan, there was still a chance. If Yang Zhen wasn't valued by Yun La and the others, he could raze this place to the ground without any scruples, or even kill Yang Zhen and restore face to the Five Clans of North Isle.
Senior Zhou chuckled as he watched Yang Zhen stagger towards him, a mocking look flashing across his face. In his eyes, Yang Zhen was almost certainly doomed today.
Even among the Five Clans, it's rare to find a young talent favored by Heaven like Yun La and the others. What merit does Yang Zhen, this arrogant and domineering young man with some talent, possess to be considered Heaven-Favored Person?
Upon hearing the title "Heaven-Favored Person," a look of surprise flashed across Senior Zhou's face. He then looked at Yang Zhen and burst into laughter.
Yun La, who was standing beside him, was taken aback. He turned to look at Senior Zhou and asked in confusion, "Why is Senior laughing?"
Senior Zhou glanced at Yun La, his gaze sweeping over the Witch and the Little Ferocious Beast, ignoring the completely inconspicuous fat man, before speaking with unrestrained gusto, "I've simply remembered something. You've come to see Yang Zhen today, but I'm afraid you'll leave disappointed."
"Why?" Yun La glanced at Yang Zhen with a smile, then turned to Senior Zhou and asked, "Senior, are you sure Yang Zhen isn't the one we've chosen?"
"It's not certain!" Senior Zhou shook his head, laughed, and said, "It's absolutely certain. You may not know, but Yang Zhen is not only not Heaven-Favored Person, but he has also offended Heaven three times. Now, he is probably no longer tolerated by Heaven and Earth Rejection."
"Huh?" The Witch's eyes gleamed with curiosity as she looked at Yang Zhen and asked, " Heaven and Earth Rejection, could it be that he has experienced Heavenly Punishment?"
"It's more than just experiencing Heavenly Punishment!" Senior Zhou's expression improved considerably as he explained, " Yang Zhen's current tribulation is undoubtedly Heavenly Punishment, and a special Heavenly Punishment at that. You can easily find out by asking any cultivator from North Isle."
This time, even the ever-present smile on Yun La's face froze. He stared blankly at Yang Zhen, who was grinning as if he were overjoyed, his eyes filled with astonishment.
"How... how did he survive until now?"
Hearing Yun La's surprised words, Senior Zhou said with a solemn expression, "We have discussed this issue in depth..."
Yun La became interested and asked curiously, "And what was the result?"
"The result..." Senior Zhou said hesitantly, "The result is... there is no result. Given Yang Zhen's personality, he should have died countless times by now, but so far, he's still alive and well. Look at the smile on his face, how happy he is!"
No one knows why Yang Zhen is still alive and well. This bastard has offended countless people, and he always seems to offend those he can't afford to offend, yet he always manages to come back alive, leaving people both astonished and bewildered.
How can someone who dares to offend even the heavens always seem to survive? Is this the legendary saying that good people don't live long, while evil ones live on for a thousand years?
Yun La and the other three looked at each other, their faces showing surprise. As they watched Yang Zhen approach, their expressions turned serious.
Especially Yun La, who looked at Yang Zhen, suddenly took a deep breath and said, " Yang Zhen is a very complicated person!"
Whether Yang Zhen is complicated or not, he himself doesn't know, but he is genuinely happy today.
Damn, no wonder so many people on this blue planet want to be stars. It feels so good to be surrounded by so many people. Look at this sea of people, it's almost as good as a top-tier celebrity concert.
Big stars hold concerts, but only people on the ground can see them. He's even Niu Bi than big stars; many people go to heaven just to catch a glimpse of him.
Yang Zhen grinned, like an international superstar, waved to the crowd, and strode over. The Shameless Cat stared at Yang Zhen in astonishment and asked, "Such a big fuss, aren't you afraid?"
"Scared?" Yang Zhen curled his lip and said, "You haven't seen anything bigger. They're all hysterically yelling your name, brandishing glowing weapons and waving them around in the air, their faces red and necks bulging. That's what's scary. These people are incredibly violent. If you don't sing for them, their shouts will deafen you."
"Damn it!" The Shameless Cat exclaimed in surprise, looking utterly bewildered. "What kind of grudge is this?!"
"Yeah, what a huge grudge!" Yang Zhen looked at Yun La and the other three with a grin, clicking his tongue in amazement, "These four were the ones who stopped that Heavenly Cycle Realm expert just now, weren't they? They're really something else."
"Kid, those four must be from the Western Region. They all look extraordinary, especially Yun La. He seems to possess an High Antiquity power. I wonder if he's cultivated High Antiquity Cultivation Method or owns an High Antiquity Spirit Treasure."
Yang Zhen was taken aback, glanced at Yun La, and nodded, saying, "This Sage of Saunter is mainly interested in those Heaven-Favored Person. By the way, why didn't Heaven-Favored Person from North Isle come?"
Almost as soon as Yang Zhen finished speaking, a path automatically parted in the crowd, and a group of five people walked towards them. Each of them was graceful and powerful, exuding a strong aura. Their True Essence fluctuations were no less than those of Yun La and the others.
A series of gasps came from above. Yang Zhen looked over in surprise. Judging from the expressions of the crowd, these five people must be the chosen talents of North Isle.
"Damn it, I thought Heaven-Favored Person Sage of Saunter so rare, but it turns out there are so many of them, just cheap, run-of-the-mill stuff?"
Yang Zhen stared in astonishment at the five people who approached. He didn't recognize any of them; they were clearly people who had been cultivating in seclusion in the sacred grounds of their sects for many years.
These people were quite skilled, and their realms were far superior to those of the geniuses Yang Zhen had encountered before. Yang Zhen could even sense changes in the destinies of these five people, which was quite remarkable.
If these people were to conceal their fates like Yun La, they would definitely be figures capable of shaking the Cultivation World.
The nine Heaven-Favored Person all gathered at Duck Water Ditch, and all of them looked towards Yang Zhen.
Countless people held their breath, all their eyes fixed on Yang Zhen. Compared to the nine Heaven-Favored Person, Yang Zhen's aura seemed insignificant. In every aspect, the nine Heaven-Favored Person appeared to be much stronger than Yang Zhen.
However, many people secretly hoped for this, because Yang Zhen had offended almost everyone who was stronger than him along the way.
Yang Zhen dared to declare that he was waiting for Yun La and the others here, naturally because he had his own reasons.
As the group drew closer, everyone's hearts tightened. Two of the five Heaven-Favored Person from North Isle were from the Five Clans, and their faces all wore mocking expressions.
Yang Zhen, looking on with the curiosity of a child, clicked her tongue in amazement. "Look, now that's what you call high-class! Make the background music louder later!"
"Alright!" The Shameless Cat patted his chest. " Boss Yang, you're welcome to come!"
