Chapter 163 - Finally! (2/2)

Yan Qiu wasn't bothered by their thoughts or words. Personally, she believed her status was far above a mere Guàn Yao. After all, she was actually related to her ancestor, treated like a princess, and her overall force was greater than the White Crane Sect could ever imagine. If anyone desired to take action against her, they would have to measure themselves nine times then think nine more times.

She decided to say a few words so others understood her thoughts, ”Guàn Yao, she doe-” however, she was rudely interrupted. The surrounding space trembled slightly. All the young geniuses got up from their feet, their eyes filled with shock. Each one of them felt a heavy aura on their bodies, as if a mountain was approaching with unstoppable momentum.

Outside, Yan Zaizen stood above the Broad Creed Mountain's Yan Clan Palace in mid-air with his arms behind his back. His short black hair and silver and sky-blue robe blew with the wind. His gaze were the physical representation of the calmness of a silent ocean, but his gaze caused everywhere he looked to feel heavy. His smile contained warmth and unyielding confidence to stand against the heavens.

He was like an immortal arriving in the mortal world. All that passed his gaze was but temporary and irrelevant. Only he, as he stood upright, would be the center the world.

Inwardly, his thoughts were very different, ”how do I look? Heroic? Epic? Like an immortal?!” He was like a jubilant child as he urged Pinaka to critique his expression. For a while, since Yan Zaizen left Han Genji's mountain, he has been practicing his expressions in private. All types, from lustful, heroic, angry, and even those filled with sadness.

Therefore, he was getting greater and greater at it.

”...You...look okay,” was all Pinaka said, feeling quite awkward about this. She found it hilarious that someone would actually practice their stances and expressions. Shouldn't they come naturally?

A spatial slit appeared in front of Yan Zaizen. A tall, slim middle-aged man with blonde hair, deep-blue eyes, and a neutral expression exited from the slit. He donned dark-grey light armor beneath his light-grey robe. It was like a mixture of a warrior and a feudal lord. It gave him an aura of profound power and honor.

The space around him trembled in obedience. ”A Heavenly Genesis expert? Likely the Yan Clan's Ancestor.” Yan Zaizen thought, his eyes displaying nothing but unperturbed calmness.

”My name is Yan Shijin, Ancestor of the Yan Clan, and Grand Elder of the Broad Creed Palace. May I ask why you've come?” Despite his calm outward appearance, Yan Shijin was inwardly wary. Essentially every Heavenly Genesis expert in the entire realm saw Yan Zaizen fight against Guàn Yin. With their ability to pierce through the heavens in observation, their heavenly sense, how could they not?

Despite this, not a single person interfered. Not even the Xiantu Emperor. Either this person's strength equaled the Xiantu Emperor or exceeded him. Regardless, he didn't wish to offend someone of this caliber for no reason.

”Mhm. Yan Zaizen, Anima Syndicate's Lieutenant.” After replying with his identity, ”I'm here for my brother.” Inwardly, Yan Zaizen found it intriguing that they had the same clan name. However, if you compare the Yan Clan in the Fallen Stars Continent with the one here, it's like a dirt particle to a planet. The difference...it could induce suicide.

”Your brother?” Hearing this, Yan Shijing felt his heart skip a beat. He was considering if Yan Zaizen was here for malicious intentions. If so, he should call the other members of Broad Creed Palace to handle this.

”Mhm. He's a scholar by the name of Tao. He had a contest with a member of your clan: Yan Qiu. Afterward, he lost. I'm suspecting the circumstances and I wish to get his opinion on the matter.” Yan Zaizen explained. However, his words only caused Yan Shijing to grow warier of him. After all, Yan Qiu was his great-granddaughter and his most doted on relative for the last thousand years.

She was also a top beauty and had the potential to ascend to the Heavenly Genesis Realm. He didn't wish for anything to happen to her and knew of her mischievous ways. She may not be as bad as Guàn Yao, but as someone with her backing and arrogance, how could she keep her hands clean?

Not waiting for Yan Shijing's response, he floated towards Tao's location.

In the palace, all the geniuses heard the conversation outside clearly. Tao, who held a wine jug next to Yan Qiu, had the largest, most childish smile on his face. His pearly white teeth could blind like the sun.

Yan Qiu's expression worsened the moment she heard Yan Zaizen's words. She was unsure of the situation outside, but considering her great-grandfather was outside to meet this new arrival, the person must be of equal or greater status than him.

She glanced at Tao's unbelievably bright smile and felt her heart grow cold.

As for Tao?

”Your time has come, you cheating witch!”
