149: Chapter 149 Fu Jiuya of Tianqiong Continent

The Disciples of the Martial Academy hadn't even reacted yet; they hadn't even realized that someone had just tried to take their lives.

Seeing Li Yuan standing before them with his sword drawn, the newcomers from Tianqiong Continent also reacted immediately.

The territory of the Shun Kingdom did not possess any essence qi.

Although it seemed like this region had a tendency for essence qi to erupt, at least for now, it had none.

In a land completely devoid of essence qi, he was able to block the guard's strike.

Without a doubt, he had to be a top-tier powerhouse of this world.

Given how young the person before them was, it wasn't difficult to guess his identity.

Instead of displeasure or anger, a hint of excitement appeared on the face of the boy, Fu Jiuya.

"Was it you who killed Ning Changting? What is your current strength?"

Fu Jiuya stepped forward eagerly and questioned Li Yuan.

Just a moment ago, he was still commanding his subordinates to kill people.

Now, he was questioning Li Yuan with a smile.

In Fu Jiuya's eyes, Li Yuan was the same as everyone else present—a lower life form.

I indeed intended to kill you just now, but you are not allowed to retaliate or hold a grudge.

If I want to treat you well, I will; if I want to treat you poorly, then I can.

"Don't be nervous. I don't care about Ning Changting; if he's dead, he's dead.

I just want to know what methods you used to advance so quickly?

How about this: write it down as you tell me."

Fu Jiuya's tone was calm, carrying a sense of entitlement.

A Martial Artist's methods of cultivation and advancement are their greatest secrets.

Yet this Fu Jiuya opened his mouth and demanded that Li Yuan reveal his secrets completely.

Before Li Yuan could speak, his guard spoke up in response.

"Young Sect Master, I suspect this person must have had a heaven-sent fortuitous encounter.

In such a barren land, it's difficult to reach this stage relying on mere techniques or even Cultivation Techniques.

His innate talent, potential, and physical foundation have likely undergone significant changes."

Hearing his guard's words, Fu Jiuya nodded.

"Hey, since you've gained these talent upgrades, do you know how to transfer them to others?"

As soon as he finished the question, Fu Jiuya shook his head.

"How could a Martial Artist from a place like this understand such techniques?

Forget it. After taking you back to the Sect, I'll have Uncle Liu think of a way; he should be able to extract the talent you've acquired."

After saying that, Fu Jiuya turned around, intending to leave.

He intended to take Li Yuan back to the Lanyuan Sect on the Tianqiong Continent.

After taking a few steps, he realized that Li Yuan was still holding his sword, watching their group.

Seeing this scene, Fu Jiuya couldn't help but sigh.

"You're not going to waste any more of my time, are you?

I really don't have the patience to deal with your nonsense. We're heading back to the Lanyuan Sect immediately.

If my father finds out I snuck out this time, he'll definitely punish me."

This Fu Jiuya was an arrogant playboy who thought everyone should revolve around him.

He spoke of his own difficulties, mentioning that he might be punished by his elders.

He wanted to use this reason to make Li Yuan submit and bow his head.

Beside him, the lead guard naturally knew that Li Yuan wouldn't be so easy to subdue.

"Young Sect Master, these people don't submit so easily.

Furthermore, if we just take him back like this, he might be disobedient and uncooperative."

Hearing his subordinate say this, Fu Jiuya thought for a moment.

"With so many torture methods in the Sect, he should become obedient..."

As Fu Jiuya spoke, he looked at Li Yuan again.

"Hey you, you'd better be obedient.

If you're not, the Sect's punishments will make you very miserable.

I'll tell you about two punishments: the Mind-Eroding Nail and the Marrow-Extraction Pincers.

If you cry out after the torture starts, I won't be listening."

Fu Jiuya adopted the posture of a superior, offering his advice very sincerely.

Not only did he want to steal Li Yuan's talent and potential, but he also wanted Li Yuan to cooperate submissively.

Regarding the Mind-Eroding Nail and the Marrow-Extraction Pincers, Li Yuan knew a bit about them from Ning Feichi's memories.

First was the Mind-Eroding Nail. The person struck by the nail must empty their mind of all thoughts.

Even the slightest thought would bring heart-piercing pain.

Accompanied by constant, agonizing pain, the person would become idiotic; even after the Mind-Eroding Nail was removed, they wouldn't dare let their mind wander.

The other, the Marrow-Extraction Pincers, was easier to understand: they were inserted into the body to pull the marrow out.

Once these methods were used, almost no one could endure.

At the same time, Dean Guo and the others had already arrived at the front.

Seeing them, Li Yuan signaled for them not to speak.

Dean Guo and the others were no fools; the Auras and pressure emanating from these people were plain to see.

Those dressed as guards were all releasing the powerful pressure of a Ninth-Grade Supreme.

Dean Guo was only at Martial Arts Grade 8; in the face of these people, his words carried no weight at all.

"Let's go, don't waste any more time."

Fu Jiuya looked at Li Yuan and made his demand once again.

But what awaited him was only the tip of a sword pointed directly at him.

Seeing this, the thirteen-year-old Fu Jiuya frowned in anger, trying to act like an adult.

"Guard Jia, Guard Yi, go and capture him.

This backwater place really does produce unruly peasants who don't understand reason and insist on forcing one's hand."

As his command fell, two guards stepped forward.

The lead guard seemed to be the one called Guard Jia.

The several guards were all named with code names.

"After taking him back, torture him first.

Once he's been through the punishments, then ask about other matters.

These kinds of unruly peasants truly don't understand human speech.

When spoken to with kind words, they just think we're easy to bully."

While Fu Jiuya was speaking, Guard Jia and Guard Yi had already made their Move.

Both men held long sabers in their hands.

Observing the quality of the blades, they were quite a bit inferior to the weapon in Li Yuan's hand.

The two guards had likely also noticed the extraordinary quality of the weapon and had developed some designs of their own.

Once Li Yuan was captured, the person would belong to their Young Sect Master.

But this weapon, perhaps they could ask for it as a reward.

Dean Guo and the others had also heard some things from the others.

These people were likely Martial Artists from the power behind Ning Feichi.

Namely, the Lanyuan Sect of the Tianqiong Continent.

These people were terrifying Martial Artists from another world!

A Ninth-Grade Supreme could only serve as a mere guard.

How terrifying must the strength of Martial Artists from a place where martial arts flourished be?

Furthermore, Li Yuan had been targeted by this so-called 'Young Sect Master'.

He would likely have to lose a layer of skin to even have a chance of escaping...

The saber in Guard Jia's hand was very fast; one could see the gap in strength compared to Amber Sovereign or Wen Jingci just from this one strike.

Guard Jia was very confident, his Move full of casual ease.

In his view, Martial Artists like them from the Tianqiong Continent should be able to crush everyone when they came here.

The Guard Yi beside him was slightly weaker in strength.

But he was still stronger than Amber Sovereign and Wen Jingci.

If not for the sudden appearance of a top-tier powerhouse like Li Yuan, they truly could have been as willful as they pleased in the Shun Kingdom, doing whatever they wanted.

The blade slashed down, but in that instant, Li Yuan's figure flickered as he dodged.

He instantly unleashed the Danbird Wings, and the sword in Li Yuan's hand was enveloped in a layer of black lacquer.

The sword's edge slashed back from an unpredictable angle.

The two guards had not expected that Li Yuan would actually be able to fight back!
