Chapter 384 My Second Brother is Invincible

Having finished speaking, Ji Mucheng was like a criminal awaiting sentencing, nervously waiting for the judge's verdict.

"Hmph!"

A moment later, Yan Chu was heard to cold snort again, saying:

"My second brother is invincible under heaven. What kind of woman has this seat not seen? Today, seeing that you have some sincerity, I will spare your life for now. You must no longer cause trouble for the Imperial Li family, otherwise, I will certainly settle accounts with you in the future!"

With that, the xun wind cauldron high in the sky once again stirred up a great wind.

This time, it was not the Yin wind that had ground Divine Monk Kongxiang into blood mist just now, but a whirlwind that swept up the members of the Hidden Dragon Clan and Sword Saint of the East Sea Xiahou Xi, causing them to disappear hundreds of miles away.

Ji Mucheng felt a moment of trance, and he had already appeared amidst a wild mountain range.

"Ah!! What happened?!"

"Is my head still there? Is my head still there?!"

"We didn't die? Why didn't Yan Chu kill us?!"

The startled cries of several Hidden Dragon Clan members reached his ears, only then bringing Ji Mucheng back to his senses.

"We're not dead!!"

He was overjoyed; Yan Chu had truly let them go.

Ji Mucheng felt as if he had found a broad path leading to the future.

Suddenly, his mind shivered, and he turned to look. Sword Saint of the East Sea Xiahou Xi was looking at him with cold, deep eyes:

"Did you just reach some kind of deal with Yan Chu?"

Ji Mucheng hastily denied it:

"Why would the Sword Saint say such a thing? What qualifications does this old man have to make a deal with Yan Chu? If anyone does, only you would have that qualification!"

Xiahou Xi was the foundation of the Hidden Dragon Clan and the Personal Disciple of Old Ancestor Ji Bo; her status in the hearts of the clansmen was even higher than his, the Clan Chief.

Ji Mucheng absolutely did not dare let her see any flaws.

"Is that so?"

Xiahou Xi's expression was skeptical, but she didn't pursue the matter further.

The priority now was to quickly leave this place of conflict.

With Yan Chu taking action, their Hidden Dragon Clan's hope of contending for the world was completely shattered.

Ji Mucheng breathed a sigh of relief, but he made up his mind that what he had just promised Yan Chu must be treated as a serious matter.

Another trait Yan Chu was as famous for as his lust was that he was extremely petty; the Jianghu rumors were definitely not false.

If he came knocking one day and found that the promises hadn't been fulfilled, his Ji Clan would still not escape a catastrophic disaster.

The members of the Ji Clan dared not delay, all controlling their light of flight to flee in the direction away from the capital.

Before leaving, Ji Mucheng was still pondering what Yan Chu had just said.

"My second brother is invincible under heaven..."

What does this mean? I've never heard that Blade Demon Yan Chu had a younger brother?

If he really has a second brother, and he himself is already so powerful, then wouldn't that second brother be incredible?

...

...

"Where are the people from the Ji family? Yan Chu let them go?!"

The eyes of the others in the field blurred, and the members of the Ji Clan had disappeared. But there was no doubt they weren't dead; Yan Chu hadn't killed them.

Otherwise, with so many powerful experts perishing, the people present would definitely have noticed.

"Great Hero Yan! Why..."

Emperor Li Heming's expression changed, and he wanted to ask, but Yan Chu's voice appeared by his ear:

"This seat has a use for keeping them. The Ji Clan will no longer be your enemy in the future!"

Emperor Li Heming's brow furrowed, and he couldn't help but curse in his heart:

"What use do you have for keeping those dogs? Isn't it just that you want the Ji Clan's beauties? Do you think I was deaf and didn't hear just now?"

The moment Ji Mucheng said those words, Yan Chu stopped immediately; his motives were self-evident.

However, despite his boiling anger, Emperor Li Heming didn't dare say anything more.

Now the initiative was in Yan Chu's hands. With his strength and cultivation that surpassed both ancient and modern times, no one could stop him from doing whatever he wanted.

Boom!

While everyone present was lost in thought, that giant xun wind cauldron moved again, bringing with it a violent sound of breaking air as it appeared above the people of the Buddhist sect.

"Don't!!! Benefactor Yan..."

Whoosh! Whoosh!

The other Buddhist practitioners present wanted to beg for mercy, but before they could finish their words, they were torn apart, flesh from bone, and their Divine Souls extinguished by a vast gust of wind flowing from the tripod. They all turned into a mist of blood and dissipated in mid-air without causing even a ripple.

Even a top Buddhist expert like Divine Monk Kongxiang couldn't last a few breaths, let alone these Devas.

"Hmph! A bunch of bald donkeys!"

Yan Chu had no good feelings toward these people of the Buddhist sect.

Whether it was the former Awakening to emptiness or Abbot Fayuan, the grievances between Nalanda Temple and himself were not small.

Moreover, the Buddhist sect had nothing that interested him...

He didn't have much interest in those Buddhist Cultivation Techniques or martial arts. After all, the strongest Buddhist martial art, the Tathagata Palm, was already in his hands.

No matter how powerful other techniques were, how could they compare to the Tathagata Palm?

The giant tripod traversed the sky like a soul-reaping envoy, ruthlessly harvesting lives. Everyone still in the field was terrified by that horrific wind.

They weren't afraid of death, but they were afraid of being crushed to death so helplessly; there was simply no value to it.

Boom!

The giant tripod moved again, this time appearing above Old Man of Tianshan and his Disciples.

Old Man of Tianshan had five Disciples, each a dragon or phoenix among men. At this moment, only the second Disciple, 'Chuchu Dongren' Shen Nanzhi, and the fourth Disciple, 'Red Sun Venerable' Li Zhou, were still alive.

"Great Hero Yan, wait!!"

"My young Disciple Nanzhi has long admired Great Hero Yan. I ask Fellow Daoist Yan to spare the lives of our Master and Disciples. Nanzhi is willing to devote herself to Great Hero Yan!"

Old Man of Tianshan suddenly spoke, causing the others to be shocked once more.

"Master, you—"

Shen Nanzhi and Li Zhou turned their heads in disbelief, truly unable to imagine that Old Man of Tianshan would say such words.

It was one thing for Ji Mucheng to be shameless and unscrupulous, but how could their always respected and beloved Master, Old Man of Tianshan, be like this too?

Shen Nanzhi would rather die than suffer such humiliation.

Old Man of Tianshan said with a serious and decisive expression:

"What is the purpose of our generation's cultivation? Is it not to break through the world and ascend, to live forever?"

"Yan Chu is invincible under heaven and can fight those with Divine Abilities; he is the person with the most hope in this world for a shattered Ascension!"

"This old man is of advanced age; it doesn't matter if I die now. But you two are still young, and the road ahead is very long. It's truly not worth losing your lives over a moment of anger. Master hopes your future achievements surpass mine; then I can die without regrets!"

"Master..."

Shen Nanzhi and Li Zhou were deeply moved.

"Sigh! It's just that Nanzhi is being wronged..."

Old Man of Tianshan shook his head and sighed.

The conversation among the Master and Disciples was extremely quiet, and outsiders could not hear it at all, but it didn't stop some Jianghu people watching the palace battle in secret from whispering in their hearts.

"As expected, the older they get, the more cunning they become! To think the Hidden Dragon Clan Chief and Old Man of Tianshan could say such things, I'm impressed!"

"Sigh! Isn't that the truth? Who told Blade Demon Yan Chu to have such a weakness?"

"This is probably Great Hero Yan's only weakness? I've never heard of him wavering for anything else!"

Others' eyes flickered, wavering indecisively.

"If we're putting it that way, maybe we can also use this to build some connection with Great Hero Yan..."

"That yellow-faced wife of mine at home still has some beauty..."
