    Whether it was Xiao Zhan, the three elders, or Xiao Yu, they all looked at Xiao Yan with shock in their eyes.


    At this moment, his eyes flickered with a crimson light, and his expression was unusually cold,pletely different from his usual elegant and easy going demeanor.


    Inside the ring, Yao Chen sensed the change in Xiao Yan and furrowed her eyebrows slightly.


    As a top alchemist, her spiritual perception was far beyond the reach of anyone present.


    Therefore, she could clearly see the ck aura lingering around Xiao Yans body.


    That was a soul contaminated by negative emotions such as hatred, anger, and resentment!


    After realizing this, astonishment and doubt filled Yao Chens eyes.


    How could a persons negative emotions surge to the extent of contaminating their soul in an instant?!


    Xiao Yu also stared at Xiao Yan in a daze. Although she couldnt see the ck aura like Yao Chen, she could clearly feel that Xiao Yan was so unfamiliar at this moment. It was the first time she had seen Xiao Yan like this.


    No somethings not right


    Xiao Yu suddenly recalled something.


    Its not the first time it was like this before


    Xiao Yu remembered. She had seen Xiao Yan in this state once!


    Only that time!


    Recalling the almost forgotten memory, Xiao Yus face turned pale, and she quickly reached out and tightly grasped Xiao Yans shoulders, her voice filled with panic.


    Xiao Yan! Calm down! Look, Im standing here fine, arent I?!


    Xiao Yan looked silently at Xiao Yu, not saying a word. After a moment, he gently removed Xiao Yus hands that were clutching his shoulders and calmly said,


    Its all due to luck, thats all.


    After saying that, Xiao Yan turned and left the council hall, leaving Xiao Yu standing in astonishment. After a moment, she snapped back to her senses and quickly chased after him, but Xiao Yans figure was nowhere to be seen.


    Oh no!


    Xiao Yus heart sank to the bottom as she turned to Xiao Zhan.


    n patriarch! Gather some man and go to the Jia Lie n immediately! Ill find a way to stop Xiao Yan!


    Before Xiao Zhan could inquire further, Xiao Yu instantly rushed out of the Xiao n and ran towards the Jia Lie n with long strides.


    Along the way, Xiao Yu constantly scanned the crowd, hoping to find Xiao Yans figure before reaching the Jia Lie n.


    However, things didnt go as she had hoped.


    By the time Xiao Yu arrived at the Jia Lie n, looking at the numerous Jia Lie n guards lying scattered on the ground, her facepletely darkened.


    She arrived toote


    Aahhhh!!!


    Suddenly, a piercing scream echoed from within the Jia Lie n. Xiao Yus heart trembled, and she rushed inside, only to see Jia Lie Ao, who was constantly howling, among the scattered Jia Lie n guards.


    At this moment, Jia Lie Ao had lost his dignified aura as the son of the Jia Lie ns patriarch. His arms and legs were twisted at extremely strange angles. Although there was no visible blood, an eerie sense of horror filled the air.


    Anyone could tell that Jia Lie Aos arms and legs werepletely crippled.


    Such cruel methods were not something Xiao Yan would normally do.


    But at this moment, Xiao Yu knew deep in her heart that all of this was indeed Xiao Yans doing!


    Swish Swish


    At this moment, Xiao Yu heard the sound of something being dragged. Following the sound, she saw Xiao Yan slowly walking out from inside, dragging a person behind him.


    It was the alchemist named Liu Xi whom Xiao Yu had encountered earlier when she returned to Wutan City!


    Liu Xi looked extremely miserable. If Jia Lie Aos crippled arms and legs were already pitiful, then Liu Xis appearance was truly horrifying!


    His eyes rolled back, blood flowing from his seven orifices, and his mouth, filled with blood, had only a few remaining teeth. Blood stains covered his lower body! (Tn: Yes, he lost That)


    Compared to Liu Xi, Jia Lie Ao, who could still scream, was considered extremely lucky!


    Looking at Liu Xis gasping and pitiful appearance, Xiao Yu knew deep down that this guy wouldnt live much longer.


    Just as Xiao Yan had said, there would be no next time for Liu Xi!


    Xiao Yan


    Xiao Yu looked at the cold and stern Xiao Yan with aplex expression on her face. She opened her mouth but didnt know what to say.


    Breaking into the Jia Lie n, breaking Jia Lie Aos arms and legs, and torturing the alchemist Liu Xi hired by the Jia Lie n to such an extentevery aspect of it was too excessive.


    But Xiao Yu deeply understood why Xiao Yan did this. Because of that, she was the only one who couldnt reproach him.


    Xiao Yan, you bastard!!!


    A thunderous roar came from the entrance of the Jia Lie n, and Xiao Yu also looked over in astonishment. The entrance was already crowded with members of the Jia Lie n.


    And the person leading them was Jia Lie Aos father, Jia Lie Bi, the patriarch of the Jia Lie n!


    Seeing his son lying on the ground in a miserable state, Jia Lie Bi lost his sanity in an instant. The Dou Qi of a Da Dou Shi (Battle Grandmaster, 4th Level) surged, and in the blink of an eye, he appeared in front of Xiao Yan, his right hand transformed into a w carrying sharp wind Dou Qi as he thrust it towards Xiao Yan!


    Die!


    Xiao Yan! Dodge!


    Xiao Yu shouted in panic. Jia Lie Bis attack was too sudden, leaving her no time to react!


    Jia Lie Bis furious strike showed no mercy and was undoubtedly aimed at taking Xiao Yans life!


    However, in the face of an attack from someone two ranks above him, Xiao Yan remained resolute, showing no intention of evading.


    He clenched his fist, gathering his Dou Qi, and fiercely collided with Jia Lie Bis w.


    Boom!


    The powerful forces collided, creating a whirlwind that swept through the area!


    But the next scene filled the Jia Lie n members who had apanied Jia Lie Bi with astonishment.


    Jia Lie Bi, a Da Dou Shi (Battle Grandmaster, 4th Level), was repelled back?!


    What a joke! How could this be possible?!


    However, they were fortunate that although Jia Lie Bi was pushed back a few steps, Xiao Yan suffered even more. He was sent flying and deeply embedded into the wall, blood covering his entire body.


    Butpared to the relief felt by the other Jia Lie n members, Jia Lie Bis face was filled with terror as he looked at his arm, which had just shed with Xiao Yan.


    His arm was broken.


    (What kind of monster is this bastard?!)


    As soon as he entered the courtyard, Jia Lie Bi sensed that Xiao Yans strength had already reached the level of a One-Star Dou Zhe (Battle Practitioner, 2nd Level) .


    He was only a waste with three-star Dou Zhi cultivation power three months ago! How terrifying was his rate of improvement?!


    Thats not all. Even if his improvement speed was fast, he was still just a small Dou Zhe (Battle Practitioner, 2nd Level) . Jia Lie Bi, as a Da Dou Shi (Battle Grandmaster, 4th Level), believed that dealing with him would be as easy as flipping his hand.


    But Jia Lie Bi never expected that his arm, as a Da Dou Shi (Battle Grandmaster, 4th Level), would be shattered in a direct confrontation with Xiao Yan!


    What a joke! Is this really a strength that a Dou Zhe (Battle Practitioner, 2nd Level) could have?!!


    Jia Lie Bi stared at Xiao Yan, deeply buried in the rubble without moving, and the sinister killing intent in his eyes grew stronger.


    This boy must not be spared!


    Jia Lie Bi once again attacked Xiao Yan, only to be forced back by a sudden whip shadow that appeared beside him. The tremendous force made Jia Lie Bi feel like he was contending with a low-ranking Da Dou Shi (Battle Grandmaster, 4th Level)!


    In the next moment, Xiao Yu, wielding a long whip, stood in front of Xiao Yan, ring at the distorted face of Jia Lie Bi and shouting sternly.


    So long as Im standing, You wonty a finger on him!
