No wonder the voice sounded so familiar; it was Wan Quan.
The voice sounded as if they had owed his family ten kilograms of rice from over a decade ago and still hadn't paid it back.
What puzzled Yang Zhen most was Wan Quan's aggressive demeanor. He hadn't even gone to collect the rent yet, and this old Wan Quan was already showing up at his door like he was there to demand an explanation.
Do you think I, the Shangyuan Sect, am a pushover, someone you can just bully at will?
Seeing Elder Gou Shengtian, who was brandishing a sword and looking furious, Yang Zhen sighed and quickly pulled him aside, asking, "Elder, what are you doing?"
These past few days must have been really tough for the Grand Elder. Not only did he have to worry about something happening to the Shangyuan Sect, but he also had to deal with villains like Wan Quan. Look how angry he is, he looks like he's ready to fight to the death.
After being pulled back by Yang Zhen, Gou Shengtian suddenly realized that things were different now; Yang Zhen was back, and the little guy was back.
The kid who nearly made Wan Quan vomit blood back then is back.
Gou Shengtian looked at Yang Zhen with a solemn expression and said, "Boy, although you are now Heavenly Cycle Realm expert, you cannot underestimate the heroes of the world, especially that old scoundrel Wan Quan. I don't know where he obtained some kind of inheritance, and his cultivation has advanced by leaps and bounds. Although he is old, his realm is very high. You must be careful."
"Yes, Senior Brother Yang, Wan Quan is quite famous in the Youzhou Continent now. Few can rival him, especially with his Three Origins Ghost Shadow Sword, a Swordsmanship that can affect the mind and is extremely strange."
Li Ruxue looked at Yang Zhen with a worried expression, while Yang Chen beside her didn't know what to say, only nodding repeatedly, clearly still shaken.
Clearly, the three of them were unaware of just how extraordinary Yang Zhen's true combat abilities were.
During this period, what Yang Zhen saw and heard was something that people in the Youzhou Continent could never imagine in their entire lives. The vastness of the world was far beyond what people in this remote corner of the Youzhou Continent could comprehend.
Although it's unknown what kind of inheritance or fortune Wan Quan received, he's only at the Ninth Heaven of the Spirit Transformation Realm. How powerful could his inheritance or fortune be?
As Yang Zhen walked out, he nodded and said, "Don't worry, I'll be careful. Actually, I 'Movement Method very fast. Even if I can't win, I can always run away, right?"
Hearing this, Gou Shengtian breathed a sigh of relief. Just as he was about to speak, Yang Zhen had already walked outside the door.
Many outer disciples stared at Wan Quan and the others with solemn expressions, their swords pointing at them. Their faces showed fear, indicating that this was not the first time they had faced such a situation.
The number of people from the Sword Attendant Sect was not large. Besides Wan Quan, there were five others, including Yue Yingying and Duan Langwen. Including Wan Quan, there were only about ten people in total.
Yang Zhen was taken aback. He had really underestimated Wan Quan's courage. A dozen or so people dared to rush to the gate of the Biren Sect and cause trouble?
Many cultivators gathered around the Shangyuan Sect, discussing and pointing amongst themselves.
" The Shangyuan Sect was once so powerful and invincible, but now it has fallen to this state. It is said that it is about to be swallowed up by the Sword Attendant Sect. It is truly a pity."
"There's nothing we can do. It's said that the Shangyuan Sect was swallowed up by the Great Heaven and Earth Chasm, leaving only the Grand Elder and a few outer disciples. Under such circumstances, even if it weren't the Sword Attendant Sect, it would be swallowed up by other sects sooner or later."
"Now that a great era has arrived, countless sects are stirring with ambition, but it remains to be seen how much of the Shangyuan Sect's resources are left."
"By the way, who Yang Zhen? The Shangyuan Sect has a disciple named Yang Zhen? Isn't it Yang Chen?"
"You haven't heard of Yang Zhen? It's said that Yang Zhen went to participate in the Youzhou Grand Assembly and hasn't returned much since. The Shangyuan Sect Sect's rise to power is entirely due to the support of one disciple."
"He is indeed an extraordinary person, but so what? Even if Yang Zhen has gained the favor of some holy lands and been accepted as a disciple, it is only by fortuitous opportunity. Can one person support a broken sect?"
Hearing the surrounding chatter, Yang Zhen pondered that he might have to set an example today; otherwise, any Tom, Dick, or Harry would dare to bark at the Shangyuan Sect, and there would never be peace.
Upon exiting the building, Yang Zhen immediately spotted Wan Quan. Wan Quan exuded a calm and composed aura, displaying the demeanor of a master, and it was clear that he had indeed improved his strength considerably.
In particular, the terrifying killing intent emanating from Wan Quan exploded with a terrifying shockwave upon seeing Yang Zhen, forming a terrifying dark cloud in mid-air. Amidst the flashes of lightning and thunder, all the surrounding cultivators exclaimed in surprise, their faces filled with shock.
Oh my, Yang Zhen would give Wan Quan about a nine out of ten for this performance. He's not giving Wan Quan the last point because he's afraid Wan Quan will get too arrogant and faint.
"Hey, Lao Wan, long time no see, how are you?"
Yang Zhen smiled and waved, greeting his old friend Wan Quan.
Upon hearing this, Wan Quan, who was preparing to unleash a powerful attack, staggered and nearly fainted.
"You brat, it really is you back! I've been thinking of you day and night, but I never expected this day to come so soon."
Yang Zhen laughed heartily and said, "Of course, of course. I didn't expect you to be so Sage of Saunter. I haven't even paid you a visit yet, and you've already come knocking on my door."
"A visit?" Wan Quan snorted coldly, staring at Yang Zhen with suspicion and said in a deep voice, "What do you want?"
The people around were astonished to see Wan Quan facing Yang Zhen like that.
"Can anyone tell what level of cultivation Yang Zhen has?"
"I couldn't tell. If you and I could have seen it, Sect Leader Wan Quan would probably have killed him with a single sword strike long ago."
"This... is terrifying! Even Sect Leader Wan is so wary of Yang Zhen. Could Yang Zhen also be a Spirit Transformation Realm expert?"
The mere mention of the Spirit Transformation Realm sent shivers down everyone's spines.
How old is Yang Zhen?
When did a Spirit Transformation Realm expert appear in the Shangyuan Sect?
The key question is, how old is Yang Zhen?
Seeing the expression on Wan Quan's face, everyone was surprised. Those who knew about Yang Zhen's past were somewhat better off, but those who had never heard of Yang Zhen gasped in unison and began to inquire about Yang Zhen's past.
Yang Zhen stared at Wan Quan, took a deep breath, and ignoring Gou Shengtian and gesturing, said, "What do I want to do? To cause trouble, of course!"
Whoa--!
Countless people couldn't help but gasp in surprise.
No one expected that Yang Zhen would be so arrogant and decisive, and that he would try to ruin the Sword Attendant Sect's territory all by himself.
Not to mention that the Sword Attendant Sect is currently at its zenith in the Youzhou Continent, and Wan Quan is a powerful expert at the Ninth Heaven of the Spirit Transformation Realm, Final Step from breaking through to the Heavenly Cycle Realm, the legendary figures behind the Sword Attendant Sect alone are enough to shock the Youzhou Continent. Who is Yang Zhen?
He's just some random kid who caused a bit of a stir before. Now he's talking about storming into the Sword Attendant Sect and causing trouble?
Do you really think Wan Quan, Ninth Heaven of the Spirit Transformation Realm cultivator, is just boasting?
Upon hearing Yang Zhen's words, Gou Shengtian angrily covered his eyes, his face showing an expression of "I knew it."
Yang Chen and Li Ruxue's eyes lit up as they looked at Yang Zhen with adoration, their eyes sparkling like little stars.
Let's cause a scene!
This is the first time I've ever heard of this term. Just hearing it makes my blood boil, let alone actually going.
Yang Chen felt that if Yang Zhen really wanted to cause trouble at the Sword Attendant Sect, he would follow him even if he knew he would die.
Li Ruxue stared blankly at Yang Zhen's back, her face filled with determination. Clearly, if Yang Zhen were to fight with the people of the Sword Attendant Sect, she would not stand idly by.
Wan Quan's face turned ashen with rage. He laughed in fury and pointed his sword at Yang Zhen, saying, "Boy, I'm afraid you don't know the enormous changes brought about by the revival of primordial energy after the great upheaval of the world. Now is no longer the time for you to do as you please."
boom--!
A terrifying shockwave erupted from Wan Quan's body, and three red suns appeared in mid-air, their eerie and sinister light terrifying. Gusts of cold wind blew by, and even the entire world became dark.
A series of sobbing sounds rang out, and the expressions of the surrounding people changed drastically. The cultivators with lower cultivation levels even hurriedly covered their ears, their faces filled with pain.
Yang Zhen was also stunned. He looked up at the three blood-red suns with a look of astonishment on his face.
It's quite a feat that Wan Quan has managed to turn the perfectly good Three Origins Ghost Shadow Sword into this grotesque form.
Wan Quan laughed heartily and said, "Boy, I really don't know whether to call you lucky or unlucky. I just made a breakthrough in the Three Origins Ghost Shadow Sword a few days ago, and you've returned. That's good. Didn't you also cultivate the Three Origins Ghost Shadow Sword? Let's see whose Three Origins Ghost Shadow Sword is the authentic one. Use your divine soul to refine the Blood Sun, and I can say that I've given an account to the ancestors of the Sword Attendant Sect."
Upon hearing Wan Quan's words, the group of people around him widened their eyes in surprise.
Yang Zhen also knows the Three Origins Ghost Shadow Sword?
What exactly happened?
Isn't Yang Zhen a disciple of the Shangyuan Sect? Why does he know the Three Origins Ghost Shadow Sword of the Sword Attendant Sect?
The group exchanged bewildered glances. Those who knew what had happened wore strange expressions, while the others, upon inquiring, burst into laughter.
It turns out that Yang Zhen tricked Duan Langcai, a disciple of the Sword Attendant Sect, into giving him Duan Langcai Three Origins Ghost Shadow Sword. The poor Duan Langcai actually believed it and even called Yang Zhen" Grandpa" many times.
Among the crowd, Duan Langwen's face flashed with resentment and anger. He had been sent flying by Yang Zhen's sword and had not yet recovered. Knowing the extent of Yang Zhen's power, he hurriedly reminded Wan Quan beside him.
Wan Quan laughed heartily, leaped into the air, and with three blood-red suns above his head, stared at Yang Zhen and said, "It's good that you're back. Today, the feud between the Sword Attendant Sect and the Shangyuan Sect will be settled. Yang Zhen, if you're willing to the Sword Attendant Sect with your Three Origins Ghost Shadow Sword, I might make an exception for you."
"No need!"
Yang Zhen waved his hand, and with a wave of his hand, the visually stunning Great Deficiency Sword landed in Yang Zhen's hand with a loud thud.
Since the goal is to establish a role model, the person must be handsome and have an explosive impact.
Wan Quan, that old rascal, arrived just in time.
boom--!
Suddenly, a dazzling, colorful light burst forth from Yang Zhen's body, so bright that it almost blinded the group of people.
"Come on, if one sword isn't enough to finish you off, from this day forward, I Sage of Saunter, will avoid any disciple of your Sword Attendant Sect whenever I see them."
