31: Chapter 31 Kid, I was very displeased with the look you gave me just now!

"Holy Son of Tianyuan?!"

Upon hearing this name, the Purple-Winged Lion King, which had fallen to the ground, suddenly widened its two massive eyes.

Clearly, it knew what this title represented.

However, the next moment, before the Purple-Winged Lion King could speak, Zhou Yuxuan slowly raised one hand, lifted it into mid-air, and then struck down violently.

"Boom!"

The body of the Purple-Winged Lion King was instantly crushed into a pile of minced meat by a powerful, immense force.

[Ding! Host has successfully altered the plot. By playing the hero to save the beauty in front of the female lead, Sect Master Luo Yuyan, you have caused her to develop favorable feelings towards you. Reward obtained: Nine Secrets, Xing-zi Secret Technique!]

(Nine Secrets — Xing-zi Secret Technique: Saint Rank Cultivation Technique. When cultivated to Major Achievement, one can possess extreme speed!)

After killing the Purple-Winged Lion King and saving Sect Master Luo Yuyan, the sudden chime of the System notification caused Zhou Yuxuan to pause in surprise.

"Hiss! Who would have thought that one could actually obtain a Cultivation Technique like the Nine Secrets in this world?"

Zhou Yuxuan said inwardly.

Although a Cultivation Technique of the Nine Secrets' Rank was only Saint Rank in the System's grading, in his view, its efficacy far exceeded the Saint Rank and could even rival Imperial Rank Cultivation Techniques.

At this moment, a faint voice could not help but ring out.

"Hiss! Is this the strength of the Holy Son of Tianyuan?"

"Is this the bastard who incited that slut to come to my Xiao Family to break off the engagement and humiliate me?"

In the shadows nearby, having witnessed Zhou Yuxuan's strength, Xiao Yan muttered with clenched fists.

"Who is there!"

The corners of Zhou Yuxuan's mouth curled up slightly. He looked toward the location where Xiao Yan was and shouted in a deep voice.

Given his strength, the moment he stepped into this realm, he could perceive any existence within a radius of a thousand miles.

The reason he didn't make Xiao Yan come out directly was that he wanted to wait for him to slip up, thereby humiliating him and causing his Luck to decrease.

"Not good!" Xiao Yan's expression changed. Just as he wanted to flee, the mouse standing on his shoulder whispered.

"Kid! Do you not want your life anymore?"

"That is the Holy Son of Tianyuan. With your cultivation, you cannot outrun him. Moreover, if you run, and he happens to misunderstand you and unleashes a killing blow, what will you do?"

The Old Ancestor's words immediately caused the step Xiao Yan was about to take to freeze in mid-air.

After a long while, he slowly retracted it.

"Old Ancestor, then what should I do?"

"Dongfang Lingyun only came to our Great Xia Dynasty to humiliate our Xiao Family because she was instigated by him. Now, because of that humiliation from her, Father has fallen into a serious illness..."

Xiao Yan was about to continue, but was slapped on the face by a tiny hand.

"Kid! What are you afraid of? Has this Holy Son of Tianyuan ever seen you? Does he even know who you are?"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yan's eyes lit up.

That's right, he, Xiao Yan, had always lived in the Xiao Family and had never traveled far. How could the Holy Son of Tianyuan know him?

Thinking of this, Xiao Yan's previously worried heart suddenly calmed down.

Following this, he slowly poked his head out from the bushes.

"This one is Yan Xiao, greetings to the Saint!"

Xiao Yan bowed respectfully, his face revealing a fawning and flattering expression.

At first glance, he looked just like a lackey who had admired the Holy Son of Tianyuan for a long time.

"Ahem! Who are you? Just now, this seat sensed your presence nearby."

At this time, Sect Master Luo Yuyan, having steadied her breathing, stood up weakly.

She looked at Xiao Yan with a wary gaze; she had sensed this man's presence during her standoff with the Purple-Winged Lion King just now.

When she was struck by the Purple-Winged Seal Technique, she even felt this presence wanting to approach.

Thinking deeper, if she were to encounter such a person of unknown origin right when her cultivation was sealed, it would be hard not to think the worst.

Especially since this man who appeared before her had revealed such a lecherous and disgusting smile the moment he showed up.

If this Holy Son of Tianyuan had not suppressed and killed the Purple-Winged Lion King, she dared not imagine what kind of torture she would have suffered next.

Thinking of this, Sect Master Luo Yuyan could not help but cast a look of gratitude toward Zhou Yuxuan.

"I, I am Yan Xiao, a disciple of the Yan Family of the Great Zhou Empire. I have been out training for some time, and having heard of this magical place, the Immortal Burying Mountain Range, I came in to explore.

I didn't expect to encounter you, Fairy, battling the Lion King nearby. For a moment, I dared not move, fearing that I might disturb you, Fairy."

Xiao Yan said, staring straight at Sect Master Luo Yuyan.

He seemed completely lost in the moment, especially when looking at Jin Qiaoer beside her; his eyes were unable to look away.

"Kid, what are you looking at!"

Feeling Xiao Yan's burning gaze, both Sect Master Luo Yuyan and Jin Qiaoer's pretty faces turned cold, and they scolded.

"Ahem!" Xiao Yan instantly woke up, cold sweat breaking out on his back.

He had not forgotten that this Holy Son of Tianyuan was still beside these two women. He quickly withdrew his gaze.

He cupped his hands and said apologetically: "I am sorry, the two Fairies are truly too beautiful, and I could not help myself for a moment!"

"I have some urgent matters to attend to, so I will take my leave now!"

Xiao Yan was just about to turn and leave.

However, Zhou Yuxuan said coldly: "Did this Saint say you could leave?"

As soon as the words fell, Xiao Yan felt a piercing chill pressing in on him from all around.

Fortunately, the little thing hidden in his chest was constantly channeling True Qi to him, which kept him from feeling quite so cold.

"Your Highness, you are being a bit too overbearing. Is the Immortal Burying Mountain Range owned by your Zhou Family or your Tianyuan Holy Sect? Does whatever you say have to be the way it is?"

Xiao Yan took a deep breath and said coldly.

Regardless of anything else, he always believed that in front of beautiful women, one must not lose one's demeanor or face; this was a matter of importance.

If he did not do so, he might lose something very important to him.

"Hehehe! Correct, whatever this Saint says, it is!"

"Only when this Saint allows you to leave, can you leave!"

Zhou Yuxuan said in an incomparably overbearing manner.

Although his words were extremely overbearing and arrogant, the confident aura radiating from his entire being made what should have been detestable words not feel so repulsive.

One might even feel that for these words to come from his mouth was perfectly reasonable.

"You!" Xiao Yan widened his eyes, his gaze full of anger, but he had nothing to say.

Indeed, the Tianyuan Holy Sect was a behemoth in the Eastern Region. In the entire Eastern Region, there were not a thousand, but at least eight hundred Sects.

Yet among so many Sects, the Tianyuan Holy Sect was one of the four most prominent and powerful Sects.

Watching Xiao Yan speechless, Zhou Yuxuan said indifferently: "Your gaze just now made this Saint very displeased. Gouge them out, and you may leave!"

Although Xiao Yan had the protection of the Heavenly Dao Luck, and he could not kill him until his Luck had fallen to a certain point.

However, it did not say that he could not maim or cripple him.

As long as he was made into a waste, would he still have to worry about his Luck not decreasing?

"Damn it! You are going too far!"

Xiao Yan clenched his fists, his eyes bloodshot, and shouted angrily.

Just at this moment, a cold, stern voice echoed in the air.

"Hehe! A Saint is actually this arrogant. Do you really think this Immortal Burying Mountain Range is a place owned by your Tianyuan Holy Sect?"

"Little friend, do not fear. With this old man here, no one shall be able to harm a single hair on your head!"
