Chapter 181: Confrontation
Thunder Lion Ridge
"Could it be him?"
In the midst of the waves of the Thunder Sea, Zhou Yan asked indifferently in his heart with a solemn face.
At this time, Zhou Yan was wearing crimson armor, and clusters of red and scorching flames emerged, enveloping him and isolating him from the whistling silver and white thunder arc that swept in, isolating himself from the muddy water.
Wu Xi's body exuded an aura, which was very similar to one of the several residual auras he sensed in that mountain col, but it was a little less bloody and domineering.
But other than that, it's the same.
Therefore, he had no choice but to look at that aspect and doubt.
I knew that he, like Zhou Kong, was a concubine, and when Zhou Yue was alive, he had no qualifications to compete for the position of the head of the Zhou family. But as soon as Zhou Yue died, he had a chance.
It's just that there are two more contenders.
Therefore, if he wants to increase his bargaining chips, as a concubine, he has nothing else but relying on himself.
And his biggest bargaining chip is talent, and it is also the only one he can take.
As for the city lord's mansion Yanwei, there was almost no help for his position as the head of the family. It may even become a bond.
Although the City Lord's Mansion and the Zhou family are both among the Zhou family.
However, they belong to two very different factions.
The two cannot interfere with each other, but if one is in trouble, the other must do everything in their power to help.
But because of this, this position of the leader of Yanwei is almost of no substantial help to Zhou Yan.
And the reason why he came to Thunder Lion Ridge was because Thunder Lion Ridge was adjacent to the Thunder Yuan Mountain Range, and he did have thoughts about the Flame King inheritance that appeared in the Thunder Yuan Mountain Range.
He thought that he had cultivated the exercises left by the Flame King, and he was one more likely to get the Flame King's inheritance than others.
Second, it's about Zhou Yue.
Although Zhou Yun didn't say it directly, he could also guess Zhou Yun's thoughts.
If you want to get his approval, the premise is to find Zhou Yue's corpse, and take the head of the person who killed Zhou Yue to sacrifice Zhou Yue.
And now, Wu Xi, who has such a strong strength in Lei Shiling, has become the object of his suspicion.
But the strength shown by Wu Xi made him jealous.
Especially Wu Xi's ability to control the thunder with one hand made him feel even more frightened.
Of course, there is also a trace of envy and greed in this jealousy and horror.
He could see that Wu Xi was not a thunder attribute cultivator, and he could control the thunder released by the Thunder Lion completely by relying on other things.
And even if this kind of treasure is him, he only sees one or two in some ancient books.
Just when Zhou Yan was thinking about planning in his heart.
Suddenly, there was a sound of breaking through the air.
Immediately after, a brilliant white sword light pierced through the water curtain and thundered the sea and shot towards it from a distance.
Seeing this, Zhou Yan's face changed slightly, his pupils suddenly contracted, and a piercing chill came to his face, which shocked his heart and did not dare to be careless.
A slight chill appeared in his eyes, and then he flipped his right hand, and a dazzling treasure light appeared in his hand, exuding a scorching high temperature.
Holding the treasure knife in his hand, Zhou Yan's heart increased his confidence greatly, and he immediately snorted coldly, and the long knife in his hand swung out, directly cutting out a piece of more than a zhang, the fire was overflowing, and the surging heat wave shot towards the rush, and the white sword light went away.
Boom!!!
In the blink of an eye, the two collided in the void, the firelight overflowed with unbearable heat, and the dazzling white sword light stirred up a dazzling brilliance, filled with palpitating power.
Suddenly, powerful energy ripples shattered and eliminated the thunder sea that was shrouded in water around it.
The water curtain dissipated, and the sea of thunder shattered.
At this time, as far as the eye can see, the lions fall to the ground, life and death are unknown, the earth is cracked, and the eyes are full of desolation at a glance, which is moving.
And it's the people in front of you who are responsible for all this.
Thinking of this, Zhou Yan couldn't help but have a hint of jealousy in his eyes.
His eyes were incomparably complex and he looked at the young man in green shirt who was standing with a sword in the distance, like a peerless sword out of the sheath being revealed, which belonged to him.
The awe-inspiring sword momentum emanating from Wu Xi's body at this time, as well as the damage caused to this ancient forest, brought him too much shock.
At least he doesn't think he has the strength.
"Sword intent? Sure enough, I underestimated the people of the world. ”
Feeling the sword momentum emanating from Wu Xi's body contained a sharp aura that made his heart palpitate, Zhou Yan couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart.
He was not a frog at the bottom of a well, so he naturally knew what the sharp qi in the sword momentum meant.
Sword intent, every sword cultivator's dream.
But being able to comprehend the sword intent is very rare.
As far as he knew, the entire Battle Flame City didn't seem to have the sword cultivation that had comprehended the sword intent.
As for the other cities, except for the Northern Ghost City, only the one in the Martial Hall of Heavenly Star City had comprehended the sword intent.
And compared to those people, his talent is almost no different from waste.
Wu Xi's gaze was like a sword, and it fell on Zhou Yan with great force.
It made his whole body feel as uncomfortable as a pinprick prick.
"In the next week, Zhou Yan, dare to ask Your Excellency's name?"
Out of fear of Wu Xi, Zhou Yan said very politely with a slightly apologetic face.
Hearing this, Wu Xi raised his eyebrows and did not answer.
He can't say that he is disgusted by Zhou Yan's behavior of secretly watching others, but he will not have any good feelings, even if he has done such a thing.
Because, this kind of person is very likely to want to make a profit.
It's just that he feels that Zhou Yan looks a little familiar, but he can guarantee that he has never seen him.
He glanced at Zhou Yan deeply, restrained the coldness in his eyes, and said, "Wu Xi." ”
After speaking, his eyes were like torches watching the change in Zhou Yan's expression. Sure enough, when he heard the word Wu Xi, Zhou Yan's face changed suddenly, but it was fleeting.
If it weren't for Wu Xi's eyes keeping paying attention to the changes in his face, he wouldn't have noticed it at all.
Seeing this, a trace of cold air overflowed from Wu Xi's body, and the originally constricted chill in his eyes poured out again.
He remembered that this person's appearance was two or three points similar to that unlucky guy who was made by "him".
But the feeling for him is completely different, an arrogant and domineering kid who didn't even take a single move from "him".
One is a character who can give him a sense of danger.
Looking at each other, Zhou Yan keenly sensed a chill from Wu Xi's eyes.
"Actually, it's really him. ”
With a bitter smile in his heart, Zhou Yan, who confirmed his guess, turned gloomy.
But he didn't make a move directly, not because of anything else.
Just because of Wu Xi's previous demeanor of defeating the lions with one blow, he was too impressed.
He really didn't want to be an enemy of this kind of person, but his brother was very likely to die at the hands of this person.
It is reasonable that he must also take action against Wu Xi.
Even though, his relationship with Zhou Yue is not very good.
But no matter what, Zhou Yue is his ninth brother in the end.
"Your Excellency, I know a young man who is two or three points similar to me. ”
Quietly running the exercises in the body, Zhou Yan asked as usual with his face.
The tone of his speech, like that of a lost person asking for directions, is as plain as that.
Hearing this, the corners of Wu Xi's mouth couldn't help but hook up a smile.
There is admiration in his heart, and Zhou Yan's heart is calm.
"Recognize. ”
Smiling and nodding, Wu Xi said lightly.
"And it's dead. ”
Suddenly, the words changed.
At the same time, he looked at Zhou Yan with a little playful gaze.
"It seems that it was really Your Excellency's doing. ”
Wu Xi's voice fell, the last trace of hope in Zhou Yan's heart was shattered, his eyes gradually became cold, and he said coldly.
The tone was extremely unkind, full of heart-wrenching killing intent.
"If you do, I promise you'll be with your brother today. ”
Feeling the cold killing intent emanating from Zhou Yan's body, Wu Xi glanced at the Xingyao Sword in his hand and said lightly.
At this time, the brilliance of the Star Shine Sword was no longer there, but it could still rank among the mid-level spirit treasures with the casting spirit material.
Wu Xi's face was full of indifference, as if he was talking about another thing as ordinary as pouring tea and drinking water.
Smelling it, it gives people the feeling that they didn't take Zhou Yan in their eyes at all.
The fact is similar, his strength is now close to seventy percent of his heyday.
Even in the ordinary smelting crystal realm, there is a certainty of victory, or even killing.
And Zhou Yan was no more than a cultivator of the Liquid Transformation Realm, although he brought a hint of danger to Wu Xi, but it was not strong.
At least, not to the point where Wu Xi's life was threatened.
In that case, why should Wu Xi be afraid of it.
Moreover, since the cultivation, in the same realm, there are indeed those who can defeat Wu Xi, but there are almost no people who can kill Wu Xi.
There's no way, the "Immortal Star Yuan Sutra" with the meridian level exercise is so powerful.
Otherwise, with the situation of the Canglan Continent at the beginning, how could Chen Kang rest assured that Wu Xi would travel alone.
"Your Excellency's strength is indeed terrifying. However, I would like to ask you again if you had killed the man who resembled me by two or three points. ”
The strength displayed by Wu Xi really made Zhou Yan very jealous.
Therefore, unless Wu Xi takes the initiative to admit it, he really doesn't want to fight Wu Xi, because there is almost no chance of winning.
Wu Hee felt too dangerous for him.
Especially the sword momentum emanating from Wu Xi's body made him feel breathless.
However, if Wu Xi really killed Zhou Yue, he would have to make a move on Wu Xi.
After all, Zhou Yue is his younger brother.
"It's not. ”
Hearing this, Wu Xi's expression froze, his brows furrowed, and he thought about it and said matter-of-factly.
After speaking, he glanced at Zhou Yan meaningfully.
Hearing this, Zhou Yan breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.
But his eyes looked at Wu Xi motionlessly, his eyes flashing, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
With his understanding of sword cultivation, Wu Xi's words were credible.
Sword cultivation is the most disdainful of lying to a group of monks.
They speak only with the sword in their hand.
Especially disdainful of using intrigue against people.
Maybe it's out of trust in Jian Xiu, or maybe it's because he's unwilling to do anything with Wu Xi.
Zhou Yan pondered for a moment and asked tentatively.
"Can you tell me the whereabouts of the real murderer of my brother? ”
He said with a hint of apology in his tone.
He shook his head and said he didn't know.
Seeing this, Zhou Yan's face changed, and he said with a wry smile.
"That bothered. Say goodbye under it!"
After speaking, he didn't dare to stay any longer, stomped on the ground with the soles of his feet, and turned into a fiery red streamer and jumped into the ancient forest behind him.
"Boy, why are you lying. ”
