Chapter 1027: Chapter 1054: Come at Me Together! (One) Chapter 1027: Chapter 1054: Come at Me Together! (One) Yang Zhen’s face always maintained a harmless smile.

“You’re saying I came to stir up trouble?”

Sorry, but I’m not one to stir up trouble. I didn’t come to target you, Hei Qiu. I just wanted to protect the paths of Hua Youyue and Han Yan’er.

As for you, Hei Qiu?

I’m not interested, nor do I want to do anything targeted. And regarding the Black Lotus Saintess, such a beautiful and almost bewitching young lady, Yang Zhen is even less inclined to target her.

Yang Zhen truly only wanted to help Hua Youyue and Han Yan’er perfect their Daoist Feeling, and incidentally take action against the Black Lotus Sanctuary.

That’s right, not targeting Hei Qiu, not targeting the Black Lotus Saintess, and certainly not targeting Mei Xiang. I’m targeting your entire Black Lotus Sanctuary.

Seeing the incredulous expression on Hei Qiu’s face, that mixture of astonishment, greed, and jealousy seemed quite beneath him in Yang Zhen’s eyes.

“Sit tight, basic operations, don’t fret!”

Yang Zhen waved his hand nonchalantly and blew on the charcoal. At last, the charcoal flames began to burn, to Yang Zhen’s delight, and he laughed heartily, saying, “See, it’s lit now, isn’t it?”

Everyone began to twitch at the corners of their eyes. Is this Yang Zhen a demon? With all this going on, he still has the mood to barbecue?

Although no one knew what barbecue was, why should they roast the perfectly good meat instead of boiling it, and could this kind of roasted meat even be edible?

As the crowd was bewildered, Yang Zhen suddenly produced a fresh piece of frozen meat exuding strong True Essence, which he cleaned up in no time, skewered, and placed on the grill to slowly start turning.

The cheeky cat watched, jumping up and down excitedly, and hurriedly said to Yang Zhen, “Kid, don’t forget me when it’s ready, I’m pretty tired cheering here.”

Yang Zhen glanced at the mischievous cat and said, “Don’t worry, everyone gets a share!”

Roar–!

Before the cheeky cat could speak, a sky-shattering roar came, frightening the cat so much that it sat down on the ground, staring dumbfounded at Hei Qiu who had transformed into something resembling a black loach, with a look of utter contempt on its face.

“Old timer, even if you’ve turned into a black loach, don’t expect any advantage in Yang Xiaozi’s Qiongqi Heavenly Void. You’re just a mere Qiu Long bloodline. Before the Qiongqi Heavenly Void, you’re nothing but a grandchild.”

Hearing the cheeky cat’s words, everyone present nodded subconsciously.

What kind of karma had Elder Hei Qiu accumulated to be restrained so by Yang Zhen?

But what Yang Zhen had summoned was the Qiongqi Heavenly Void, after all. What object couldn’t be restrained by that?

Elder Hei Qiu obviously understood this principle; after a bellow, a terrifying surge of blood erupted from his body as he glared at Yang Zhen and said, “Youngster, even if you can contain this old man’s shadow appendage, you are still only at the cultivation level of the Celestial Phase and the Ninth Heavenly Layer. With a high realm but lacking in sustained power, how many Qiu Long can you shatter?”

As he spoke, Elder Hei Qiu snorted coldly, and with a sweep of his hands, two Qiu Long appeared amidst roars, their presence so massive they seemed to envelop even Wuting Mountain.

The already wildly rampaging Qiu Long caused terror to the onlookers, and now two even more terrifyingly large Qiu Long had appeared. Under these circumstances, Yang Zhen’s Qiongqi Heavenly Void might have difficulty withstanding them.

Even a true dragon, at birth, couldn’t match a peak predatory bird.

Roar! Roar!

Two ear-splitting roars spread throughout the cosmos, and the turbulent True Essence in the sky seemed to be driven by the two Qiu Long, causing a stormy upheaval.

The Black Lotus Saintess showed a pained expression as the surrounding heaven and earth’s energy was affected by the two Qiu Long, causing her discomfort while she tried to perfect her Daoist Feeling.

Even the Black Lotus Saintess was affected, let alone the Blue Bird Saintess. As soon as the two Qiu Long appeared, the Blue Bird Saintess turned pale. Clenching her teeth, she gave Yang Zhen a deep look before closing her eyes again, her Daoist Feeling becoming even more profound and ancient, evoking an astounding primordial aura.

No one would have imagined that the Blue Bird Saintess’s Daoist Feeling could be so solid.

Even Yang Zhen unexpectedly glanced at the Blue Bird Saintess, truly worthy of being the Blue Bird Sect’s saintess. The solidity of her Taoist Feeling had far surpassed Hua Youyue and Han Yan’er and was indeed much stronger than that of the Black Lotus Saintess.

No wonder the Blue Bird Sect dared to let the Blue Bird Saintess lead the team alone. With such a level of cultivation and realm, she was already comparable to any Half-step Great Saint. But perhaps even the Blue Bird Saintess had not anticipated that the Black Lotus Sanctuary’s team leader would actually be Hei Qiu.

Hei Qiu’s strength was indeed formidable; facing two such terrifying Qiu Longs even Yang Zhen felt a sense of strain.

If it were outside Wuting Mountain, not within the Path Cutting Saint Light, Yang Zhen wouldn’t have feared these two large mudfish. However, within the Path Cutting Saint Light, his strength was indeed greatly hindered–much more so than Hei Qiu, a true Half-step Great Saint.

As two terrifying roaring dragons charged at Yang Zhen, the Qiongqi Heavenly Void he had conjured started to feel like it was struggling to hold.

When the two Qiu Longs had exhausted themselves, the Qiongqi Heavenly Void behind Yang Zhen also vanished without a trace.

The people of Black Lotus Sanctuary cheered, while the surrounding crowd gasped in shock.

A hint of regret flashed across Qing Guan’s face as he said, “Yang Zhen is truly deserving of someone who has encountered a Saint Realm expert. Such potential is enough to make any Sacred Land take note.”

Shengquan Real Man also nodded his head, admiringly saying to Yang Zhen, “A very interesting lad, should we lend him a hand?”

A smile appeared on Qing Guan’s face as he said, “We could help, but I fear that if the Black Lotus Sanctuary dares to come to Wuting Mountain, their trump card isn’t just Hei Qiu. Have you noticed that palace among the Black Lotus Sanctuary’s camp?”

Shengquan Real Man nodded and said, “That’s his palace. Are you suggesting that he might have come?”

Tianle Holy Land, being the leading power of the Central Court, naturally knew the true extent of Black Lotus Sanctuary’s strength.

Though Yang Zhen’s displayed power was greatly admired by them, against Black Lotus Sanctuary, it was merely a glimmer in the dark.

Once the Black Lotus Sanctuary took things seriously, Yang Zhen and the two women by his side, along with their cat, would probably not stand a chance of escaping.

As long as within that palace was the one who was resting!

The crowd looked at Yang Zhen with uncertainty as Hei Qiu’s face revealed a wry smile. Rubbing his hands together, two more terrifying Qiu Longs descended from the sky, and with the Qiongqi Heavenly Void behind Yang Zhen not yet reformed, everyone cried out in alarm.

Who would have thought that the imposing Hei Qiu, a famed Half-step Great Saint, would resort to such a method to whittle down Yang Zhen’s power? In the next moment, the crowd realized this.

Such a tactic could deplete Yang Zhen’s strength and also affect the Blue Bird Saintess as well as Han Yan’er and Hua Youyue. Although it would have some effect on the Black Lotus Saintess, it was clear to everyone that this impact was insignificant.

Truly a masterstroke that killed three birds with one stone.

For a moment, everyone looked at Hei Qiu with a sense of horror.

The formidable Hei Qiu, a renowned Half-step Great Saint, was deploying such a sly tactic against Yang Zhen, who was at the Celestial Phase Ninth Heavenly Layer and wishing to protect his woman–it was truly… infuriating.

After all, Hei Qiu belonged to the Black Lotus Sanctuary and was a Half-step Great Saint, whereas Yang Zhen had no influential backing.

As the two Qiu Longs roared thunderously, charging toward Yang Zhen with ferocity, everyone wore a look of sympathy on their faces and watched as the Blue Bird Saintess showed a pained expression, her face turning pale as though struck by a great blow.

Just then, Mei Xiang suddenly burst into laughter, leaped up, and surged towards the Path Cutting Saint Light, shouting, “Elder Black, I’m coming to help you!”

What?

Hearing this, the surrounding crowd’s faces turned tremendously shocked.

Even the Blue Bird Saintess opened her eyes wide with a look of fury.

Too shameless, but such shamelessness was precisely the style of Black Lotus Sanctuary.

As the crowd roared with concern for Yang Zhen and the Blue Bird Saintess, Yang Zhen suddenly pulled out an assortment of little bottles and jars from his bosom. Looking at the approaching Mei Xiang, he said to everyone from Black Lotus Sanctuary, “You all might as well come together, no need to waste time.”
