Yan Zaizen yawningly stretched out his fatigued muscles, feeling a wave of relief surge throughout his body. Taking a deep breath, the surrounding essence was quickly siphoned from the vicinity to enhance his blood circulation.
”Today felt so long.” He casually remarked, looking towards the skyship suspended in mid-air. On board, Tao, Bai Lufeng, Lin Qinlan, and Lin Feilin stared at him like curious peacocks. He couldn't help but lightly chuckle. To think, three years ago, he was considered the lowest form on the continent. Now, he could say a single word, and the myriad forces of the continent would have to take it into serious consideration.
”Don't get too complacent. Your cultivation may be exceptional on this tiny planet, but you're still insignificant in the myriad realms.” Pinaka's voice resounded, one filled with obvious disdain at Yan Zaizen's mentality. However, Yan Zaizen simply shrugged carelessly. He had long realized that Pinaka was affected by his Dao and had a tyrannical ferocity about her she couldn't directly control as a True Spirit, so he didn't feel insulted.
Sure, he may be insignificant now, but what about in the future? Everything required one step at a time, and he hasn't even taken his first step yet. Now that he was forging his own path, he needed to close off all the karma gathered in the continent before he decides to travel to higher realms.
Arriving on the skyship, he looked at Lin Feilin, and smilingly said, ”Your marriage is now called off. If anyone gives you any trouble, complain to the sectmaster. She'll help in an instant. Haha.”
His words were so casual that it felt surreal to her. She looked at this handsome, tall, powerful Ninth Brother of hers and couldn't help but feel her heart flutter slightly. For her, he displayed his dominance to the sectmaster and arranged for her status. How many would do this? How many had such capabilities?
Of course, in reality, Yan Zaizen only did that by a whim. His true intention of arriving here was due to the Yan Clan. Lin Feilin, however, assumed he went solely for her, creating this misunderstanding. Yan Zaizen didn't attempt to clear up her thoughts, looking towards Tao. ”We'll be leaving. I still have some unfinished business.”
Lin Feilin broke out of her stupor, looking at Yan Zaizen with soft eyes filled with reluctance. ”Do you have to leave...so soon?” Her voice turned quiet and completely unlike her usual self. Yan Zaizen was startled, looking at this icy-cold Senior Sister of his, and couldn't help but feel odd in his heart.
”You don't have to worry.” Yan Zaizen eyes sparkled with radiance, reaching his hand out to grab the edge of her chin with his curled index finger. He brought her eyes to his and smiled softly, ”I'll be back, one day. At that time, you can tell me all the things I've missed.” Yan Zaizen attempted to put on the most dashing expression he could, looking softly into her eyes, but inwardly he was a little bit nervous.
This was his first attempt at acting like a cool heroic hero to the icy-cold beauty. To capture her heart permanently with a single glance. Initially, he thought she would act aggressively at being randomly touched, but instead, she blushed from ear to ear, avoiding his radiant gaze. However, she didn't try to remove his hand from her chin.
With the softest voice one would ever hear, she softly replied, ”Okay.” After that, Yan Zaizen removed his hand and felt satisfied. This move was something Bai Lufeng had transmitted to him when attempting to attract a girl's attention and reviewing their responses at physical contact. If they were repulsed, it was a no. If they blushed and acted shy, they were a full yes!
After a little more conversation, the trio departed from the Water Veil Territory. Lin Qinlin wanted to stay, but was decisively rejected by Yan Zaizen. He gave her an elixir called the Origin Excavation Elixir, and sent her on her way. It was far less efficient than the Origin Consolidating Pill, but it could help a peak-Qi Unification Cultivator reach the half-step Origin Core Realm.
Initially, Yan Zaizen assumed Bai Lufeng would plead on her behalf, but he was silent. He said nothing as she was sent off. One could see that he truly didn't care about this woman.
Truly a playboy.
----------------------------
Two months later, in the Earthly Titan Sect, there was an outrage of panic within. There were many people dashing to and fro locations with rapid steps, their cultivation bases fully erupted, and their faces filled with fear.
It happened so suddenly.
Several minutes ago, several of the upper echelon members suddenly fainted dead. Upon examination, it was revealed their souls were directly snuffed out of existence by a powerful force. However, only selective people were hit. There was also a Grand Elder who went missing suddenly, but no one could find her. They searched for any semblance of answers or order, trying to get their bearings amidst this chaotic situation.
There would be times where someone would be perfectly fine, but then the next second, they would drop dead suddenly.
”What is happening?! Calm down, everyone!”
”ARE WE BEING PUNISHED?!”
”Where is Grand Elder Kiyun?! The Sectmaster is missing as well!”
”Oh...god...its the heavens! We've angered the heavens!!!”
