C1505 A Life Worse than Death
"Too late!"
Zhou Yan sneered and threw out a punch, causing the woman's body to explode.
When the woman's husband saw Zhou Yan's bloodthirsty appearance, he was scared out of his wits as he scrambled to escape.
"Hahaha!"
"You bunch of trash, just you wait. One day, I will make you wish you were dead!"
Zhou Yan laughed out loud. With a flash, he immediately left the Sacred Martial Hall and returned to Tianfeng City.
...
The next morning.
When Zhou Yan returned to Tianfeng City, he immediately saw Xiao Yulong practicing his sword in the plaza.
"Yulong!"
When Zhou Yan saw Xiao Yulong, he immediately went up to greet him.
When Xiao Yulong heard the shout, he turned his head and saw that it was Zhou Yan. He immediately revealed a look of joy.
"Senior Brother Zhou Yan, you're finally back!"
"You've been gone for so long this time, I'm really worried!"
Xiao Yulong asked with a face full of concern.
Hearing this, Zhou Yan immediately laughed: "Yulong, you don't have to worry. Aren't I back now?"
Hearing this, Xiao Yulong heaved a sigh of relief: "That's good!"
"Oh right, where did you go this time? Why did you take so long to return? You didn't encounter any danger this time, right?"
Xiao Yulong asked with concern.
"Don't worry, I'm fine!"
Zhou Yan said indifferently: "I just came back safely!"
"En!"
"Oh right, I heard from Senior Brother that you have already been successfully promoted to Inner Sect disciple?"
Xiao Yulong suddenly thought of something and asked curiously.
"That's right. During this period of time, it was all thanks to Master's guidance that I was able to have today's results!"
Zhou Yan smiled and nodded.
"Congratulations, Senior Brother!"
"Oh right, you're only twenty this year, right? You've already become an Inner Sect disciple, you're really amazing!"
Xiao Yulong smiled and complimented.
Zhou Yan shook his head and explained with a smile:" In fact, this is not a big deal. When I first entered the Sacred Martial Peak, I had already reached the peak of the Xiantian realm, and was only half a step away from breaking through to the Spiritual Ocean Tier."
"Oh!"
When Xiao Yulong heard this, he immediately nodded his head. He knew that Zhou Yan was telling the truth. At that time, Zhou Yan had indeed only become a disciple of the Sacred Martial Peak two or three years before him, but at that time, Zhou Yan was already an expert of the Inborn Stage.
"Well, don't flatter me. Let's go and have breakfast."
"Mm!"
Xiao Yulong nodded his head.
The two of them arrived at the academy's canteen and found a seat by the window.
"Senior Brother Zhou Yan, you've been gone for so long this time. Did you find a treasure?"
"That's right!"
Zhou Yan chuckled and nodded.
"Then... Where is that treasure?"
When Xiao Yulong heard this, his eyes immediately widened.
Zhou Yan smiled slightly: "This time, I am going for that treasure, but I met with an accident on the way, so I was delayed for a while. It's fine now!"
"So that's how it is!"
Xiao Yulong suddenly came to a realization and said: "Since Senior Brother Zhou Yan is no longer in danger, then hurry up and tell me where the treasure is. What treasure could make Senior Brother Zhou Yan so crazy!"
When Zhou Yan heard this, he smiled slightly and then pretended to be mysterious: "When the time comes, you will know for yourself. I won't tell you!"
"Alright, then don't regret it!"
Xiao Yulong curled his lips, obviously dissatisfied with this.
After the two of them chatted for a while, Xiao Yulong took out a few pills and handed them to Zhou Yan: "Senior Brother Zhou Yan, I have two healing pills here. Take them to heal your injuries!"
"Thank you!"
Zhou Yan nodded with a smile and accepted the pill.
After that, the two of them chatted for a while longer. Xiao Yulong suddenly thought of something and asked: "Senior Brother Zhou Yan, do you know where that Lin Yue'er is?"
"Lin Yue'er?"
When Zhou Yan heard this, he couldn't help but frown. After pondering for a moment, he slowly said, "She should be on Sacred Martial Peak, but I can't confirm her exact location yet!"
"Sacred Martial Peak? Then I'll go find her now!"
Hearing this, Xiao Yulong immediately stood up and said.
"Hey! Wait a moment!"
Zhou Yan immediately called out to Xiao Yulong.
"Didn't you want to kill that girl?"
"I don't think it is a good time to rush this. After all, we need to keep a low profile now. It will be troublesome if people find out what we are trying to do!"
Zhou Yan persuaded.
After Xiao Yulong heard Zhou Yan's words, he also felt that it made a lot of sense, so he agreed.2
After dinner, Zhou Yan and Xiao Yulong went their separate ways.
Xiao Yulong left the cafeteria and headed straight for the Sacred Martial Peak.
...
Sacred Martial Peak was a huge mountain range that reached into the clouds and covered thousands of acres of land. It was the core of the entire Qingyang Town, where all kinds of cultivation resources gathered.
As soon as Xiao Yulong walked into Sacred Martial Peak, he immediately felt a dense wave of Yuan Qi rushing towards him, making him feel refreshed.
On the Sacred Martial Peak, there were many servants. The cultivation of these servants wasn't high, but their actual combat strength far surpassed those of the same level. They could even challenge martial artists of the same level.
On Sacred Martial Peak, besides all sorts of spiritual plants and herbs, there were also many cultivation techniques and martial arts techniques. However, these things were all rather rare, and ordinary people had no chance of seeing them.
Xiao Yulong arrived at the peak of Sacred Martial Peak and found a small path that led to a small wooden house. There were three words written on the small wooden house: Sacred Martial Pavilion.
Xiao Yulong strode into the Sacred Martial Pavilion.
There was only an elder guarding the Sacred Martial Pavilion. When he saw Xiao Yulong, he respectfully called out: "Greetings, Senior!"
Xiao Yulong waved his hand and said with a smile: "I'm here to look for your master. Is he here now?"
"Master? Are you talking about my master?"
The elder on guard asked doubtfully.
"That's right!"
Xiao Yulong nodded his head and then opened his mouth to ask: "Is your master inside?"
"Senior, please wait a moment!"
The old man guarding the door hastily said. He turned around and entered the room. He quickly came out and said to Xiao Yulong: "Master is waiting for you inside. Come with me!"
Xiao Yulong nodded his head and followed the elder as they walked forward. They arrived at a remote little forest and stopped in front of a small house.
The elder knocked on the door and a moment later, a lazy voice came from inside: "Who is it?"
"Reporting to Master, it's me, Zhou Yan!"
"It's Zhou Yan, come in!"
Hearing that, the elder immediately opened the door and made an inviting gesture.
When Zhou Yan walked into the room, he immediately discovered that in the center of the room, there was a middle-aged man sitting cross-legged. The middle-aged man was dressed in white and held an ancient folding fan in his hand. He was tall and sturdy, and his eagle eyes revealed a glint of wisdom.
