Amidst the pitying gazes of those around them, the sharp Dou Qi of Dou Qi clashed heavily with Xiao Yan's palm.
"Overestimating yourself!"
Upon seeing this, the man in the golden robe couldn't help but reveal a mocking and disdainful sneer. He suddenly rushed forward, seemingly intending to knock Xiao Yan's body away.
However, just as the golden-robed man charged forward, he clearly saw that the stream of Dou Qi that should have pierced through Xiao Yan's hand and head at the same time exploded instantly in the latter's hand. The power of the explosion did not even leave a scratch on the latter's hand.
The golden-robed man's attacks were surprisingly weak in Xiao Yan's hands!
At this moment, even the passersby around them stared in disbelief, their gazes towards Xiao Yan filled with shock.
Immediately afterward, before anyone could react, Xiao Yan's unharmed hand suddenly stretched forward. With a thought, a powerful suction force surged from his palm, like a storm flowing against the current, forcefully pulling the golden-robed man's body towards him.
Only at this moment did a sense of fear suddenly surge in the golden-robed man's heart. He never expected that this seemingly young man in black robes would possess such terrifying strength.
Xiao Yan slightly bent his five fingers and grabbed the latter's neck. He gathered strength in his palm, and if he wanted, Xiao Yan could easily crush the neck of the person in front of him.
He was just a Two-Star Dou Di, and Xiao Yan didn't even take him seriously.
However, just as Xiao Yan was about to make a move, his gaze fell on the badge on the golden-robed man's chest.
The badge is round and silver, with many complicated seal characters outlined on it, which vaguely seem to form the word "formation".
"Array Master?"
Noticing this, Xiao Yan couldn't help but frown slightly. After all, Golden Radiance City was the territory of array masters, and he knew that array masters and alchemists were basically at odds. Therefore, he didn't want to cause trouble here, which was why his first reaction when facing this golden-robed man was to give way.
However, to Xiao Yan's surprise, this golden-robed man was actually a formation master. It seemed that his original intention had been unintentionally violated.
Seeing Xiao Yan frown, the golden-robed man, whose face was now flushed red, grasped at a straw, gritted his teeth, and growled in a hoarse voice:
"Boy, I'm from the Golden Radiance City Formation Master Association. If you dare touch me, the Formation Master Association will definitely..."
Did I give you permission to speak?
Xiao Yan's expression hardened, and a sharp glint appeared in his eyes as he stared at the man in golden robes. Upon seeing this, the man stopped abruptly before he could finish speaking, his eyes filled with deep fear. He stared intently at the young man in black robes before him, not daring to utter another word.
"Sir..."
Just then, the array masters dressed in golden robes at the city gate also noticed the situation. Immediately, one of the middle-aged men who was in charge stepped forward and came to Xiao Yan, bowing respectfully to him.
"What's up?"
Xiao Yan's eyes flickered slightly; he naturally understood why this guy had stepped forward.
"Sir, I apologize for his rude behavior just now. However, this is Golden Radiance City, and the rules of the Formation Master Association do not allow any array master to be harmed here. Therefore, I beg you to be merciful and let him go."
Xiao Yan met the middle-aged man's gaze without flinching. As he spoke, he deliberately brought up the Righteous Dharma Master Association, seemingly hoping to use it to suppress the person before him.
However, Xiao Yan, who had initially frowned slightly upon hearing his words, instead curled into a cold smile after the latter finished speaking.
"Heh, your Formation Master Association's rules are rather domineering. However, you should understand that I'm not even within the boundaries of Golden Radiance City right now. Once I'm outside this city gate, whether this guy lives or dies is none of the Formation Master Association's business..."
The man in the golden robe frowned, a look of displeasure on his face. He hadn't expected that even after bringing out the Formation Master Association, the person before him would still be so stubborn.
"Sir, please..."
"In other words, even if I kill you all now, the Formation Master Association still can't touch me!"
Xiao Yan tightened his grip on the person's neck, causing the latter's already flushed face to become even more bloodshot, and his eyes to roll outwards.
At the same time, Xiao Yan took half a step forward, and an invisible aura of pressure immediately spread outward from his body. The golden-robed man standing in front of him was the first to be affected, and was forced to retreat repeatedly by this powerful pressure. Meanwhile, the expression on the latter's face also appeared extremely solemn.
"What... what do you want to do!"
The man in the golden robe stared at Xiao Yan with a slightly pale face and gritted teeth, completely losing the refined demeanor he had just displayed.
"Hmph, a mere Two-Star Dou Di, I wouldn't even deign to kill him. Since you want to save him, here you go!"
Xiao Yan let out a cold shout, abruptly releasing his grip on the golden-robed man. At the same time, he twisted his hand and struck the golden-robed man's chest with his palm. Instantly, the latter's body flew backward uncontrollably, eventually colliding with the formation master.
Having dealt with the two men with a single blow, Xiao Yan paid them no heed and took a step forward, heading towards Golden Radiance City.
"Halt! You injured the array master of Golden Radiance City. Golden Radiance City does not welcome you!"
"What a joke! It's just a city. You think you can decide whether or not someone can enter?"
Hearing the command from the array master, Xiao Yan sneered repeatedly, strode forward, and arrived directly beneath the main gate. He lifted his foot and walked into the city without stopping.
"Drink!"
The next moment, the surrounding array masters all shouted in unison. With a thought, powerful Spiritual Strength surged out of their bodies, intertwining and condensing into an invisible blade in the void, which fell fiercely towards Xiao Yan.
"Oh? Spiritual Strength, huh...?"
Sensing the Spiritual Strength surging from the bodies of the people around him, Xiao Yan raised an eyebrow slightly, then smiled coldly. With a thought, just as the soul blade fell towards Xiao Yan's head, an even more terrifying Soul Storm suddenly swept outward from between his brows.
"Buzz!"
An invisible Soul Storm, like a whirlwind, instantly blasted everyone around back. At the same time, the powerful storm also tore apart the soul blade, which was formed by several array masters working together, in an instant with overwhelming force!
