AST 1752 - Yang Can vs Yan Yujiang (1/2)

“Why didn’t you take an alternate path?”

All along, Qing Shui has never felt good about the Ocean Demon Palace. Now, it got even worse after he saw the arrogant attitude and words from them. He no longer had to fear them now, so there was no need for him to endure all these grudges within himself.

He didn’t bother to explain why he wanted to fly above the opponents, nor did he deny his plan to do that. He only questioned them back why he needed to take a detour.

Certainly, with his understanding now towards the Ocean Demon Palace, he also knew what they were likely to say.

It’s just as Qing Shui said, the middle-aged man who was leading the group asked with a cold and disdainful smile, “Why do you want to pass us straight on? If you take an alternate path, at least you will be alive, if you pass through, you will die. Tell me then, do you want to take another path? But even if you want to take it now, you no longer have the chance to do so!”

While looking at Qing Shui, Yan Yujiang never paid any attention to him. Instead, he was more focused on Muyun Qingge. He soon revealed the greediness in his eyes without the slightest scruple.

Qing Shui was puzzled. Logically speaking, with Yan Yujiang’s current level of cultivation, he shouldn’t be so shallow. Even if he truly harbored this intention deep in his heart, it’s unlikely that he would express it so obviously through his expression.

Qing Shui didn’t know that a majority of Ocean Demons were all like that. They valued strength the most. To them, only the strong would live and the weak served the purpose of being fed to the strong. This was the simplest way for them to demonstrate their power; Since I was strong, I could dominate you. It’s perfectly normal to do so.

The morals in this world varied greatly compared to his previous world. In this case, some things were pointless to hide.

“There are important things which I need to do. I don’t have the time to talk nonsense with you guys. Please, if you will excuse me.” Qing Shui couldn’t be bothered to waste his time on them. Since they wanted to act like this, he felt that he just might as well fight them. He hasn’t tested his strength since it improved.

“You unbridled brat! Let me see just what you are made of!” Yan Yujiang immediately charged towards Qing Shui at the moment he finished speaking.

Qing Shui squinted his eyes. In an instant, his strength rose all the way to its peak. He slanted his body and immediately threw himself forward. The Golden Battle Halberd immediately got thrust forward with a force that’s enough to slice an entire mountain.

Beng!

A loud explosion came through. Everything in the surroundings got destroyed with only a deep crater left in the middle. The Qi Force scattered all across the surrounding, forming ripples in the air.

Qing Shui revealed a smile on his face. He didn’t know if the opponents had gone all out. But while battling against him, he didn’t even move a single step back while his opponent got blown very far away to the back.

The Ocean Demon Palace of Yan Clan was only one of the branches of the entire Ocean Demon Palace. Despite this, it still didn’t stop Qing Shui from feeling joyful. This was because prior to this, the other branch of Ocean Demon Palace wasn’t a force that he could deal with alone. But now, things were no longer the same.

Yan Yujiang looked at Qing Shui in disbelief. To think that such a young man would possess such a formidable strength. Though he had yet to go all out and even if he did, he would only fight him to a draw at best. In fact, he also wasn’t sure if Qing Shui had more hidden aces.

For a moment, he felt as if he spilled a bottle with five kinds of flavor*. Deep down, he felt really upset. It was an impact which he found unacceptable. It’s similar to an adult who got defeated by a child who studied in Kindergarten.

Right at this moment, another group of people showed up. There were about ten of them, just like the Ocean Demon Palace. Without much thought, Qing Shui could already tell that they should be members of the Northern Yang Palace.

The leader was a bright and handsome man. Compared to Yan Yujiang, he looked a bit more violent. He had a tall and upright figure. Both of his eyes were bright and dominating.

Seeing such a scene, the man nodded his head first at Qing Shui and Muyun Qingge before opening his mouth at Yan Yujiang, “Hm, why do you seem so beaten up?”
