C1411 Underestimated Strength
He could tell that the young man in front of him was a true disciple of a big clan. When the young man asked a question, he didn't dare to be negligent at all.
"Alright!" Zhou Yan's eyes flashed as the corner of his mouth curled into a smile.
Bandits!
This kind of existence that lived in the shadows was most suitable for him!
"Go tell Black Panther that I want to make a deal with him!" Zhou Yan waved his hand.
"This..." Hearing this, the black-robed leader was stunned.
"What? You don't want to?" Zhou Yan frowned.
"Lord, please forgive me. I will go and send a message right now!"
Hearing that, the black-robed leader was shocked. He quickly bowed and left.
When he reached the door, he let out a long sigh of relief.
Although he was the captain, in terms of status, he was far inferior to Zhou Yan. After all, Zhou Yan was a Lord. Not to mention, he was still being controlled by others.
If not for that, how could the black-robed leader give in so easily?
"Sigh, I hope the black panther can be more interesting!"
...
Zhou Yan sat on the chair and waited quietly.
He did not think that things would be as simple as they seemed.
From his deduction, since they were a gang of bandits, they must have some sort of plan. It was impossible for them to come here rashly, otherwise, they would definitely die.
Besides, they should know how powerful he was, so they sent a lackey to test him.
However, they seemed to have underestimated his strength.
"Lord, we have already prepared everything!" Soon, the black-robed leader walked in again.
Zhou Yan glanced at him indifferently and said, "Alright, prepare to leave!"
"Yes!" The black-robed leader nodded and then led Zhou Yan into the city.
This city was called "Black Stone City," and it was a property under Zhou Yan's command. It could be considered an important town.
Back then, Zhou Yan rose to power here and established his own dynasty. He named the entire city "Black Stone City."
This also represented Zhou Yan's ambition towards this land.
"What's your name?" On the way, Zhou Yan suddenly asked.
"Reporting to the Lord, my name is Ah Fu," the black-robed leader said respectfully.
Ah Fu was the surname of the black-robed leader. He was in charge of receiving Zhou Yan and acting as a guide.
"En, remember to pay more attention to your surroundings. Don't let anyone else notice anything strange!" Zhou Yan warned.
"Understood!"
Ah Fu immediately nodded in agreement.
Soon, the two of them arrived at the City Lord's Mansion.
At this moment, there were dozens of Centaurs gathered here.
The leader was a man in his forties. He had a sturdy body, thick arms, and muscles. His entire body was emitting a strong explosive power.
"Black Panther, I've brought you the person!"
Seeing Zhou Yan appear, the black-robed leader quickly went up to greet him.
"Hehe, thank you for your hard work!" The black panther nodded slightly, and then its gaze fell on Zhou Yan's face, its eyes revealing a greedy expression: "As expected of a young hero, no wonder you dared to wander the Ancient Desolate World alone and even defeated three Grandmasters!"
His voice was low and hoarse, as if it was the sound of metal rubbing against each other. It was extremely ear-piercing and disgusting.
"Oh?" Zhou Yan looked at him with interest.
From the way he dressed, he seemed to be the leader of a group of bandits.
However, he could feel the smell of blood from behind his clothes. Apparently, he had seen blood before.
"Hmph, brat, no matter who you are, you won't be able to escape from me today!"
After he finished speaking, Black Panther suddenly stood up.
Brrrooom!
In an instant, the originally quiet courtyard was suddenly filled with muffled thunder.
"Mm?"
Zhou Yan raised his eyebrows as he felt a sense of pressure and danger.
This sense of threat was actually stronger than that of the other martial cultivators he had encountered before.
"Brat, your luck is too bad. I'll use you as a sacrifice today!"
Black Panther sneered. He raised his foot and was about to rush over.
"Stop!"
However, at this moment, Zhou Yan suddenly shouted.
"Haha, what? Are you afraid? It's too late. No one can save the person I want to kill!"
Black Panther laughed wildly. He was sure that the other party was afraid of him and did not dare to resist. This way, he could enjoy this wonderful prey to his heart's content.
"Is that so?"
Zhou Yan shook his head and laughed, his eyes filled with ridicule.
"Brat, you're about to die, yet you're still so arrogant!"
Seeing that, the black panther flew into a rage as a cold killing intent shot out from its eyes.
"Die!"
In the next moment, the tip of his foot suddenly stomped on the ground as his entire body turned into an afterimage and pounced towards Zhou Yan.
His speed was incomparably fast, like a ghost.
In the blink of an eye, he arrived in front of Zhou Yan and clawed at his neck with his five fingers in an attempt to take his head.
His attack was extremely swift and fierce. Ordinary martial cultivators would not be able to block it at all.
However, it was a pity that he met Zhou Yan.
"* Crash! *"
Before the black panther's palm could even touch Zhou Yan's body, it was sent flying and crashed onto the ground.
* Crack! *
As the sound of bones breaking resounded through the air, the black panther let out a pained cry as sweat dripped down its forehead.
Just now, his attack had actually been blocked by Zhou Yan.
"You..." The black panther stared at Zhou Yan in utter shock as if it could not believe that this was real.
He was an expert at the peak of Grade Six, one of the few experts in the entire Black Stone City. But now, he had been easily blocked by the other party.
"Black Panther, I know you're not willing to accept this!"
Zhou Yan slowly stood up and looked down at Black Panther: "However, I advise you to obediently surrender so that you won't suffer any physical pain!"
"Bastard!"
The black panther gritted its teeth as a ruthless glint flashed across its eyes.
"Since that's the case, don't blame me for being ruthless!"
With a faint smile, Zhou Yan's figure flashed and appeared in front of the other party in the blink of an eye. Suddenly, he reached out his hand and grabbed the other party's throat.
"Puchi!"
In the next moment, Zhou Yan suddenly twisted his wrist, causing a bright red liquid to spray out, dyeing the ground red.
"Ugh..."
The black panther covered its throat and coughed violently. Its face flushed red, and after struggling for a moment, it could not hold on any longer. Its head tilted to the side and it died!
"Tsk tsk, how violent!" Ah Fu couldn't help but click his tongue.
Having followed Black Panther for a long time, he naturally knew how ruthless and decisive the other party was. However, he did not expect that he would actually fall into Zhou Yan's hands.
"This is the Black Stone City!"
Zhou Yan said calmly.
"Uh, I know..."
The corner of Ah Fu's mouth twitched as he said embarrassedly, "But aren't you afraid of causing a commotion in Black Stone City?"
"Don't worry, they won't dare!" Zhou Yan waved his hand, not caring at all.
"Uh, alright..." Ah Fu sighed helplessly, thinking that Zhou Yan was too arrogant.
However, he also knew Zhou Yan's temper, so he did not dare to persuade him anymore. He only reminded him, "Since that's the case, I'll take my leave."
"Alright." Zhou Yan nodded and did not try to persuade him to stay.0
Soon, Ah Fu left.
"Looks like I have to hurry up and find my father." Zhou Yan's eyes flickered.
He knew that the other party must have already set up an ambush for him. If he did not join them, he would definitely not be able to return.
