Battle Through the Heavens: I, Yao Chen, can even deceive my disciple's wife.

Page 74

After quietly finishing his meal, Ling Ying also bowed respectfully to Yao Chen. "May I ask who you are?"

"Hehe, young friend...don't you know that you should introduce yourself before asking someone's name?"

Hearing Ling Ying's question, Yao Chen, seeing that Xiao Yan was unharmed and merely overexerted, decided to have some fun with Ling Ying. "Haha, you're just a Dou Zong, it's best you don't know my name."

To avoid causing trouble. Ling Ying wasn't afraid at all.

After all... the ancient races, aside from the current Soul Clan, are the overlords of this Dou Qi Continent.

Even if he were just a dog at the gate of an ancient clan, he would still be someone ordinary people couldn't look up to. As the bodyguard of the young lady of the ancient clan, Ling Ying also possessed the pride of a member of the ancient clan.

"Ah, just a Dou Zong." Interesting.

After hearing Ling Ying's words, Yao Chen almost laughed.

Ling Ying was nothing but a nobody on the roadside, a nobody in the ancient clans, only good for showing off in Wutan City. And now he actually looked down on her?

Even Yao Chen had to applaud Ling Ying.

Yao Chen thought this way and immediately did it.

The next second, the sound of Yao Chen clapping rang out in the air.

Chapter 161 The Strange Medicine Dust

Seeing Yao Chen suddenly clap his hands, Ling Ying, not understanding why, subconsciously took a half step back... ready to disappear into the night at any moment.

After all, while he might verbally look down on the wild Dou Zong that spawns outside, his actions are more honest.

No match for them. Running away was the only option. "What?"

"Young friend, are you scared?" "Didn't you look down on Dou Zong?"

Yao Chen caught Ling Ying's half-step back and was also caught off guard.

Actually, Yao Chen wanted to say that Jiao'er was just a plaything between his legs... but after thinking about it, he gave up.

It's to avoid Ling Ying having any information about that old bastard Gu Yuan. Going against Gu Yuan now would be like...

I hit the jackpot. I feel like dying.

If Gu Yuan knew that Yao Chen had seduced his precious daughter and turned her into a dog...

Yao Chen could see his great-grandmother immediately. He dared not think about it, dared not think about it.

I don't know what you're talking about.

"Since you are here, I will not disturb you any longer."

Seeing that Yao Chen in black robes was mocking her, Ling Ying didn't dare to utter a word, afraid that she would say something wrong and implicate her mistress.

He was also thinking of escaping immediately. Actually, Yao Chen was overthinking it.

Ling Ying does indeed have a communication device on her, but

It will take several days to reach Gu Yuan of the ancient clan.

Only Xun'er possesses a jade slip that goes directly back to the ancient Yuan Dynasty.

To the ancient clans, he was nothing more than a roadside servant, placed beside Xun'er as a bodyguard. After all... Wutan City, and indeed the entire Jia Ma Empire, didn't have a Dou Zong (Master of the Battle) level.

Ling Ying, a Dou Huang, protecting Xun'er would not only avoid attracting the attention of the Soul Palace, but would also provide appropriate protection for Xun'er.

The moment Ling Ying finished speaking, Yao Chen knew that Ling Ying was trying to run away. Seeing this...

The very next second Ling Ying slipped into the shadows...

Yao Chen reached out and locked the space around Ling Ying. "Young friend, why are you in such a hurry?"

"Why don't you sit down and talk with me... about the difference between a Dou Zong and a Dou Huang?" As Yao Chen finished speaking, chains that sealed off the surrounding space appeared one after another.

He immediately imprisoned Ling Ying, a Dou Huang, in this small space. Trying to escape by disappearing into the shadows?

If it were an ordinary Dou Zong, Ling Ying might have really gotten away. However...

Yao Chen isn't your average Dou Zong. He belongs to the category of those who have to dissipate their cultivation and start over.

Dou Zong already possessed a portion of spatial power, and with the addition of absorbing the memories of the original Yao Chen, the current Yao Chen is essentially a rebuilder.

Previously possessing the strength of a Nine-Turn Dou Zun, he was extremely familiar with spatial power.

Upon seeing this, Ling Ying's pupils dilated in surprise. She immediately looked around.

Chains locked the space within a hundred meters, preventing Ling Ying from using her Shadow Step technique. Ling Ying could only watch Yao Chen in terror.

He hadn't expected that a mere remote town would produce a Dou Zong, not to mention someone with such profound understanding of space. This was something even a peak Dou Zong might not be able to do.

He tried again, but still couldn't break the surrounding restrictions. Seeing this, he could only clasp his hands in a fist salute to Yao Chen.

"I was hit during the burial. I wonder if you could spare my life for the sake of the ancient clan?" Ling Ying knew that if he didn't beg for mercy, he definitely wouldn't be able to get out.

This is like a cat playing with a mouse. Hearing this, Yao Chen smiled contemptuously.

"Heh, young friend, you've got a good plan." "One sentence and you expect me to let you go?" "Is the ancient clan's influence really that great?"

I even dared to challenge the prodigies of ancient clans... let alone you.

Although we can't reveal that the person riding is Xun'er, it's good to put some pressure on that idiot Ling Ying.

Otherwise, next time we won't even put a Dou Zun Dou Zun in our eyes. Hearing this, Ling Ying's face darkened.

Looking at Yao Chen, who was dressed in a black robe and appeared extremely mysterious, I couldn't get a clear picture of his background with my divine sense.

I don't know if what the other party said about riding the ancient clan's prodigy is true or false... "My name is Ling Ying, and I am in charge of the ancient clan's young lady's secret guard."

"If you are willing to let me go, this sixth-order wind attribute magic core can be considered as an apology for my slip of the tongue just now."

Having said that, Ling Ying reluctantly took out a cyan demon core from her storage ring. Seeing this, Yao Chen merely smiled.

"Jiajia, that's ridiculous. I'll kill you. Isn't this magic core mine too?"

"Even the rare and precious materials in your storage ring belong to me... Jiajiajie." "You, you, you're from the Soul Palace!!!" Hearing the familiar Jiajiajie...

Ling Ying instantly understood who the newcomer was. Wasn't this clearly someone from the Soul Palace?

Only members of the Soul Palace would utter such a strange, arrogant laugh.

Moreover... members of the Soul Hall all prefer to wear black clothes and robes, giving them an extremely sinister appearance. Yao Chen's appearance is exactly that of a member of the Soul Hall.

Instead, a soul fluctuation emanated from Yao Chen, clearly the kind that had just ensnared the soul of a Dou Zong. However, what Ling Ying didn't know was...

Yao Chen withdrew from his physical body, deliberately transforming into a soul form. This was to mislead Ling Ying's judgment.

Upon hearing Ling Ying mention the Soul Palace, Yao Chen no longer concealed anything...

His gaze lingered on the storage ring under Ling Ying's fingernails. If he snatched it, there would definitely be something good inside.

With that in mind, Yao Chen immediately took action.

Now that you know my identity, then today...

"We can't let you live."

As he spoke, a black flame appeared in Yao Chen's palm.

It's naturally the black clump within the Yin-Yang Twin Flames. After all... if you're going to put on an act, you have to make it look convincing.

Chapter 162 Saving the Day

When Ling Ying sensed the strange fire rising from Yao Chen's palm, her fear intensified.

"Senior, are you... are you really going to turn against our ancient clan?" "I am Miss's personal guard. If something happens to me..."

"Clan Chief Gu Yuan will arrive immediately, and then... you won't be able to escape either."

Although he was afraid of Yao Chen's strength as a three-star Dou Zong, the presence of the secret guard by the Gu Clan's young lady boosted his confidence considerably.

Ling Ying didn't believe that Yao Chen was willing to trade one for one with him. Upon hearing this...

Yao Chen did indeed start to have reservations.

This has already alerted Ling Ying, who is close to Xun'er. If they don't kill her this time, she will definitely inform Gu Yuan.

Killing him... would only result in Gu Yuan arriving and instantly killing him again. No matter what they did, the risk was too high. Seeing the black-robed figure in the sky hesitate, Ling Ying also offered a reward.

"Senior, I can offer two Rank 6 pills and one Rank 6 magic core in exchange for the safety of my mistress and me..."

As she spoke, Ling Ying dared not delay, and taking advantage of Yao Chen's hesitation, she tempted him... with a flick of her finger.

The next second, two Rank 6 Breakthrough Pills, emitting a medicinal fragrance, appeared in Ling Ying's palm. These were originally prepared for him when he attempted to break through to the Dou Zong realm. But now, he had to reluctantly part with them, otherwise...

He might lose his life; he knew those people from the Soul Hall. They were... a bunch of madmen who harvested souls.

Looking at the two Breakthrough Pills in her palm, Ling Ying reluctantly handed them to Yao Chen. "If Senior is willing to let me and Miss go."

"These two Breakthrough Pills are my compensation to you, Senior. As for the remaining sixth-tier magic cores, I, Ling Ying, will naturally offer them to you when you unravel the surrounding space."

Ling Ying couldn't give it all at once, afraid that Yao Chen might suddenly turn against her. If that happened… then they'd be finished.

Looking at the two Breakthrough Pills floating before him, they were actually of no use to Yao Chen. After all, Yao Chen had already reached the Dou Zong level, and these pills were of no use to him. But...

Next time I meet Yunyun, this thing will be very useful.

He smiled, then beckoned and drew it into his palm, smelling it briefly.

A rich medicinal aroma wafted into my nose. "Not bad, it's still top-grade."

"Since... young friend Ling Ying has already made concessions, I naturally won't make things difficult for you."

With that, Yao Chen stored the pill in his storage ring, and then... dispelled the spatial restrictions surrounding Ling Ying. "Alright, you can go now."

"Remember, next time, don't look down on people with those dog eyes of yours."

Upon hearing this, Ling Ying's expression beneath the mask was far from pleasant. However, given his current inferior skill, he believed that in a real fight, his opponent could extract his soul in just a few moves.

Although his complexion was poor, he still maintained a humble and submissive posture, clasping his hands in a fist salute to Yao Chen.

"Then I thank you very much for your leniency, senior. I will take my leave now."

Having said that, Ling Ying dared not linger any longer and immediately transformed into a shadow, preparing to disappear into the night.

However, the next moment, something unexpected happened.

Just as Ling Ying lowered her guard, Yao Chen made his move.

"Heh heh, young friend, you're so eager to leave... Have you forgotten something?"

The moment the voice rang out, Yao Chen instantly appeared in front of Ling Ying.

Ling Ying stared in disbelief and terror. Yao Chen raised his hand and grabbed her by the neck.

"I don't like leaving myself with future troubles. Although I said I would let you go..."

"You seem to know too much, so bear with it." After saying that, Yao Chen raised his hand and pressed it on Ling Ying's head.

The sudden turn of events caused Ling Ying to burst into a tirade of curses. "You..."

"Shameless! The Soul Hall is a bunch of cowardly rats, hiding their true colors and breaking their promises." As the last sentence fell, Yao Chen's soul power invaded Ling Ying's mind... "The Soul Hall?"

"What does this have to do with me, Yao Chen?"

What Soul Hall? Anyway, he's not a member of the Soul Hall.

The Soul Palace is shameless, and they are also untrustworthy. What does it have to do with Yao Chen? With a forceful pull, the next moment...

Upon hearing this, Ling Ying, who was about to continue her tirade, involuntarily rolled her eyes.

The soul realm of an eighth-grade peak alchemist is no joke.

Although Ling Ying's cultivation level is Dou Huang, her soul realm is only slightly better than that of a third or fourth-grade alchemist. In this world, very few people cultivate their soul strength.

In an instant, Yao Chen's powerful soul transformed into golden threads, directly invading Ling Ying's memories. It shattered the part concerning himself.

Five minutes later, Yao Chen released his grip, and Ling Ying's body plummeted towards the ground.

Yao Chen clapped his hands and looked at a storage ring in his palm.

"I never expected... that a mere lackey of an ancient clan would possess such abundant cultivation resources." Indeed, the major sects are truly powerful and influential.

Yao Chen withdrew his divine sense from his storage ring and then tossed the storage ring into his own. After doing all this, Yao Chen looked at the most dazzling building in Wutan City and said, "Little Ya Fei, your master is here to save you."
