119: Finally got the chance to lure the snake out of its hole, and learned the spearmanship from Xu Chuang.

"You!"

"You won't die well! Young Master Xu will definitely avenge us!"

"Just you wait, you'll die too!"

Zhao Pang glared at Ye An with fury.

Ye An spread his hands and said,

"Alright then, I'll give you a chance.

Let Young Master Xu come and avenge you!"

Saying this, Ye An pointed towards the alley's exit!

"Now, go back and find your Young Master Xu, and tell him I'm waiting for him here!"

"Whether he has the guts to come or not, that's up to him!"

"You... are you serious?"

Zhao Pang clearly didn't quite believe him.

Ye An couldn't be bothered with him and stood up, saying,

"You have five seconds.

If you don't scram, I'll kill you!"

"Five!"

"Four!"

...Ye An said this while walking towards Liu Bairan.

And how could Zhao Pang dare to stay any longer? He didn't even care about the injury on his leg, got up, and ran!

Seeing Zhao Pang flee, Ye Mier asked, puzzled,

"Husband, why didn't you kill him?"

"If he goes back, won't Young Master Xu find out?"

Ye An smiled and said,

"I want him to go back and find Young Master Xu!"

"If he doesn't go back to report, how can I lure the snake out of its hole!"

"Ah? But that's Young Master Xu.

Even if his own strength is similar to yours, he still has other powerful individuals by his side!"

"Do you really have confidence?"

Ye Mier asked with great concern.

Ye An, however, smiled and said,

"He has powerful individuals by his side, and so do we!"

Saying this, Ye An looked at Liu Bairan beside him and said,

"Your Sister Bai Ran's strength is also very formidable.

You'll see if you just wait!"

Upon hearing this, Ye Mier couldn't help but look at Liu Bairan.

Liu Bairan had clearly heard Ye An's words, and at this moment, her back straightened a bit.

Ye An looked at her smug expression, gave a helpless smile, and then turned his attention to his storage ring.

No kidding, at this moment, nothing was as important as the Soaring Dragon Art Secret Manual he had obtained.

As Ye An took out the Soaring Dragon Art Jade Slip from his storage ring, a wisp of consciousness instantly penetrated the Jade Slip!

Sure enough, he immediately felt a surge of information rapidly pouring into his mind from the Jade Slip.

However, that aura was obscure and difficult to understand, clearly requiring time to slowly study.

After all, this was a Cultivation Technique; if it wasn't Cultivated and studied, it naturally couldn't be mastered!

However, with the System by his side, Ye An quickly heard the System's voice!

"Ding! The host is detected to be learning the Cultivation Technique Swimming Dragon Spear.

This time, 200 merit points can be invested to directly learn the Swimming Dragon Spear Cultivation Technique!"

"Do you wish to invest!"

Listening to the System's voice, Ye An couldn't help but smile.

To be honest, 200 merit points was already very cheap for him!

When he learned the Heart Sword Art, even after raising his Mental Energy to its Peak at the time,

It still took him eight or nine hundred points to learn the third stage.

This time, it only required 200 points!

This was already a huge profit, as the Soaring Dragon Art and the Heart Sword Art were both Earth-grade Cultivation Techniques!

So, logically, the investment should have been the same!

However, Ye An also knew that as his Mental Energy level and Spiritual Root improved!

Although they were both Earth-grade Cultivation Techniques, his speed and efficiency in learning them were already incomparable!

Naturally, the merit points required by the System would also decrease accordingly!

To put it simply, when his strength reached the Nascent Soul, or even Mahayana, or a higher Realm in the future,

His speed in Cultivating Earth-grade Cultivation Techniques would only be faster.

Then, the merit points required would also be less, perhaps even just one merit point would be enough to learn an Earth-grade Cultivation Technique!

This was the benefit brought by the improvement of Mental Energy!

And the benefit brought by the improvement of the Spiritual Root was that the Cultivation time would be shortened!

So, for Ye An, besides diligently earning merit points, he also needed to diligently improve his Mental Energy strength and Spiritual Root!

These three were interdependent!

The stronger these three abilities were, the stronger his strength would be!

Ye An didn't delay at all and immediately shouted in his mind,

"Invest!"

Sure enough, the System's voice immediately followed.

"Ding! You have deducted 200 merit points this time!

The Soaring Dragon Art has been learned!"

Listening to the System's voice, Ye An also felt that.

In his mind, the Cultivation Technique Secret Manual of the Soaring Dragon Art began to rapidly dissolve!

Finally, it transformed into wisps of light and entered his Sea of Consciousness!

And almost simultaneously, he felt that memories of the Soaring Dragon Art and various usage techniques had already appeared in his mind.

That feeling was as if Ye An had been practicing the spear for decades!

"Having a System is just awesome!"

Ye An couldn't help but let out a breath, feeling incomparably refreshed!

However, just as he had finished learning the Soaring Dragon Art,

At the end of the alley, Young Master Xu indeed walked in with six or seven subordinates.

And when Young Master Xu saw the Jade Slip in Ye An's hand, he couldn't help but snort coldly,

"You even dare to touch my things!"

"I think you're really tired of living!"

Ye Mier was also frightened by this display and quickly hid behind Ye An.

Ye An looked at Xu Chuang and smiled,

"I didn't want to touch it either!"

"But Young Master Xu is so generous, he insisted on sending his subordinates to deliver it to me!"

"Young Master Xu even spent 100,000 Spirit Stones to buy it!"

"Tsk tsk, I'm truly inexplicably grateful!"

Xu Chuang heard this and said coldly,

"Sharp-tongued!"

"You just dealt with two lackeys, and you really think you're capable, don't you?"

Saying this, Xu Chuang waved his hand.

Immediately, four or five subordinates rushed over and stood in front of Ye An!

"Beat him until he kneels and begs for mercy!"

Young Master Xu said coldly.

And those four or five subordinates didn't waste any words, they all drew their weapons and charged towards Ye An!

Ye An smiled at the sight, and instantly, with a wave of his palm,

In an instant, several sword lights directly pierced through the bodies of those subordinates.

One by one, they instantly fell to the ground, wailing incessantly!

Looking at Young Master Xu, Ye An smiled and said,

"Young Master Xu, don't bother sending cannon fodder that hasn't even reached Heavenly Mansion Realm Level Five!"

"I find it troublesome to clean up!"

"If you really don't want them, just have someone 'Click' them directly.

Why send them over for me to deal with? Your strategy of killing with a borrowed knife is truly well played!"

The subordinates lying on the ground all looked at Xu Chuang upon hearing this.

Xu Chuang's face was grim as he said,

"What the hell are you talking about!"

"I didn't expect you, kid, to have some strength.

It seems the Zhao family brothers really were injured by you!"

"But with your strength, you're only fit to run wild in Ye Family Pass!"

"Once you're in my Jianglan City, you'd better just lie down for me!"

After saying that, Xu Chuang's aura suddenly erupted.

His clothes were instantly torn in half.

Revealing a large amount of fat.

But at the same time, Ye An also saw that.

On Young Master Xu's body, he was actually wearing a set of armor that resembled Dragon scales!

The armor was deeply embedded in Xu Chuang's flesh, looking incredibly hard!

And at the same time, Young Master Xu waved his palm, and instantly a pair of black overlord gauntlets appeared on his hands!

"Could these be the overlord gauntlets?"

Ye An muttered to himself.

Before he came, Monkey had introduced them, saying that this pair of overlord gauntlets was custom-made by Young Master Xu's father, who spent a fortune to have them crafted!

They were a Heaven-grade Divine Weapon!

Now that he saw them, they truly were extraordinary, and even Young Master Xu's Dragon scale armor!

Ye An estimated that it was also Heaven-grade Divine Armor, only most people couldn't see it!

Xu Chuang put on his gauntlets and clashed them together, producing a "clang, clang, clang" sound of metal colliding!

It sounded very heavy and powerful!

After fully equipping himself, Xu Chuang looked at Ye An and said,

"Do you really think you're invincible just because you're in the Golden Core Realm?"

"Today, I'll show you how I, with the power of a Heavenly Mansion Realm Peak, will beat you, a Golden Core Realm expert, to the ground!"

As Xu Chuang spoke, his entire body instantly accelerated and charged towards Ye An.

At the same time, he threw a punch, carrying terrifying Qi fluctuations, and blasted towards Ye An!

"Die for me!"
