Chapter 2244: Chapter 2244: Just a Battle
When Jing Yan finished speaking, the eyes of many people in the hall went blank.
Some Immortal Rhythm Cultivators even held their breath.
Who is Immortal Venerable E Si? Jing Yan actually dared to speak to Immortal Venerable E Si like that—his courage was simply too big!
Most of the people present knew little about Jing Yan; for almost all of them, it was the first time they had seen him in person today. And from the start of the banquet, Jing Yan’s conduct at the feast had been fairly proper, at least he hadn’t made anyone feel that he was arrogant or conceited. Yet at this moment, facing Immortal Venerable E Si, Jing Yan’s behavior could no longer be described with the word “arrogant.”
He was simply courting death!
Given Immortal Venerable E Si’s temperament, how could he possibly endure such behavior from Jing Yan?
“Hehehehe…” Immortal Venerable E Si’s face twisted slightly as he let out a weird, spine-chilling laugh.
“Fellow Daoist Jing Yan, what are you trying to do? If you continue to be disrespectful toward Immortal Venerable E Si, then I can only ask you to leave the banquet.” Wuxia Immortal Venerable was also startled by Jing Yan.
Jing Yan’s words and actions were simply too reckless.
Or perhaps Jing Yan simply didn’t know what kind of person Immortal Venerable E Si was.
Wuxia Immortal Venerable couldn’t help but begin to worry about Jing Yan. However, for Jing Yan to do this for her also made joy rise uncontrollably in her heart, a delight that came from the depths of her being.
“Wuxia, even if you drive me out of the banquet, I still won’t let anyone take you away.” Jing Yan looked at Wuxia Immortal Venerable and said, “Unless you go willingly.”
“Brother Yuantong, this little friend Jing Yan is quite domineering! Interesting, really a bit interesting.” Pu Bai Immortal Venerable’s gaze flickered as he looked at Yuantong Immortal Venerable and spoke.
“This…” Yuantong Immortal Venerable also didn’t quite know what to say.
He paused for a moment and said, “Jing Yan is a very young Cultivator, hot-blooded with youthful vigor. Add to that, Wuxia Immortal Venerable and Jing Yan are friends.”
“So that’s how it is!” Pu Bai Immortal Venerable gave Yuantong Immortal Venerable a long, deep look.
“Wuxia, you should know my temper, shouldn’t you?” E Si turned his eyes toward Wuxia.
“Under normal circumstances, if someone dared to be so rude to me, I would definitely kill him without the slightest hesitation. But today, I’ll give you some face. I won’t make a move in your banquet.” Immortal Venerable E Si said.
“Thank you, Immortal Venerable E Si.” Wuxia hurriedly expressed her thanks.
“Immortal Venerable E Si, aren’t your words a bit too big? If you don’t want to make a move at Wuxia Immortal Venerable’s banquet, we can go out. We can leave Wuxia City!” Jing Yan let out a derisive laugh as he spoke.
Jing Yan knew that this battle was probably inevitable.
Even if E Si didn’t strike at Wuxia Immortal Venerable’s banquet, judging from his posture, he was definitely going to insist on taking Wuxia Immortal Venerable away. Yuantong Immortal Venerable might help Wuxia Immortal Venerable, but E Si Immortal Venerable hadn’t come alone; he had come together with Pu Bai Immortal Venerable. From the few words Pu Bai Immortal Venerable had spoken, it was clear that his relationship with Immortal Venerable E Si was anything but ordinary.
And Pu Bai Immortal Venerable’s strength surpassed that of Yuantong Immortal Venerable. Leaving aside whether Yuantong Immortal Venerable would be willing to take action for Wuxia Immortal Venerable, even if he did, he would probably be blocked by Pu Bai Immortal Venerable.
Since they were bound to fight, why not fight now?
Jing Yan himself also wanted to see how much his Combat Power had increased. Since returning from Yellow Spring Cave, nearly forty thousand years had passed. Jing Yan had deduced his refinement Spell up to the Immortal Rhythm Level, and he had fully mastered the Great Demon Seal Suppression Technique. His Combat Power now was nothing like before—it was far stronger than when he had battled the Black River Heavenly Monarch.
This E Si’s strength was of course extremely formidable, but Jing Yan did not believe he had no chance of a fight.
Moreover, E Si was one of the Twelve Saints of Slaughter God Hall. It was said that most of the high-level figures in Slaughter God Hall all grasped Dao Skills of the Death and Destruction category, while Jing Yan’s Thunder Origin Skill was precisely the nemesis of Death Destruction Dao Technique. Just like how Jing Yan had used Thunder Light Shining to beat that Black River Heavenly Monarch so badly he was scrambling in utter disgrace.
“You little beast, you’re seeking death!” This time E Si truly could no longer control his fury.
His entire body was wreathed in black mist, waves of terrifying Death aura surging out. His eyes were almost spitting Flames.
If he didn’t kill Jing Yan, it would be hard to dispel the hatred in his heart.
This time, coming to Wuxia City, one of his major purposes was to take Jing Yan away and see whether he truly knew how to let Immortal Rhythm Cultivators step into the Immortal Venerable Realm. Yet now he no longer cared about that; he only wanted to kill Jing Yan first and talk later. Or, he could leave Jing Yan’s Divine Soul Body behind. Within Slaughter God Hall there were many methods to torment a Cultivator’s Divine Soul Body. With the Divine Soul Body, he could still dig out the secrets on Jing Yan.
“If you want to kill me, you’ll have to see whether you have the ability. E Si, others may fear you, but I, Jing Yan, do not.” Jing Yan said with a cold laugh.
“I’ll be waiting for you outside Wuxia City!” Jing Yan added another sentence.
As his words fell, his figure flickered, and he had already left the banquet hall.
“I’ll kill you, you little bastard!” E Si’s rage blazed as he darted out in a flash.
“Interesting. Brother Yuantong, shall we go take a look too?” Pu Bai Immortal Venerable said with a faint smile.
“Alright.” Yuantong Immortal Venerable replied, somewhat worried.
Wuxia Immortal Venerable also closely followed behind Yuantong Immortal Venerable and Pu Bai Immortal Venerable, leaving the banquet hall.
In the hall, many of the big figures exchanged glances, and then all flickered out in flight as well. These people truly had not expected something like this to happen today. They had come to attend the feast partly to build a connection with the newly advanced Immortal Venerable Wuxia, and partly to see Jing Yan in person, to find out what was so special about him. They had never imagined that after Pu Bai Immortal Venerable and Immortal Venerable E Si arrived, the situation would spiral step by step into such a vicious state.
The wilderness outside Wuxia City.
Jing Yan hovered in midair, turning to wait for Immortal Venerable E Si who was chasing up.
“Brat, I thought you would be looking for a chance to flee for your life.” Seeing Jing Yan stop, E Si spoke in a sinister, chilly voice.
“E Si, you think you’re worthy of making me flee for my life?” Jing Yan shot back in retort.
A short moment later, Pu Bai Immortal Venerable and the others also arrived in the nearby area.
“Jing Yan really is crazy enough.”
“What is he thinking, offending Immortal Venerable E Si like this? Does he think Yuantong Immortal Venerable will be able to save him? I’ve heard his relationship with Yuantong Immortal Venerable is pretty good, but even if Yuantong Immortal Venerable wants to save him, I fear he’ll be powerless to do so.”
“Unless our Heavenly Domain’s Lord Heavenly Master personally steps forward.”
“How could Lord Heavenly Master easily step out to handle a matter like this? Alas, this Jing Yan is probably doomed today. I had originally wanted to meet with him privately and have a chat.”
Many Cultivators at Immortal Venerable Level whispered to one another.
Kuo Lian and a few other Immortal Venerable Level powerhouses were also only watching from afar. As Immortal Venerable Level existences, they did not wish to get lightly involved in a conflict related to E Si. Perhaps in their eyes, Jing Yan as he was now was still not worth them stepping in to oppose E Si and oppose Slaughter God Hall.
