The Weird Way of Immortality: My Taoism Progress in One Day a Year

Chapter 161 Killing the Crown Prince
The old man in black robe and others thought that Li Yan was bragging.

Only he, who had experienced Li Yan's methods, knew that what Li Yan said was not groundless, but that he really had the ability to do so.

Originally, given the prestige of King Zhou, he believed that Li Yan did want to help King Zhou seize the Mandate of Heaven and achieve great things.

After all, King Zhou did have a very good reputation.

Otherwise, Si Linhai would not have given up his position as the leader of a powerful faction and insisted on inviting the prince of Zhou to come and want the Dahe Gang to join the king of Zhou.

But now everything is in vain.

Although it was the Prince of Zhou who was the first to offend Li Yan because he did not know Li Yan's identity.

But judging by the character he exhibits.

Not to mention Li Yan, even for him, it is impossible for him to have any good feelings towards King Zhou, who has always had a good reputation.

"You want to stop me?"

Li Yan asked the old man in black robe.

The old man in black robes held the broken sword in his hand and said slowly, "King Zhou ordered me to protect the prince, so I must do my duty faithfully."

"Although you are a master, King Zhou also has masters under his tutelage. If you insist on killing the prince and offend King Zhou, someone will surely avenge the prince in the future!"

"Please think twice before acting."

Upon hearing this, Prince Zhou also stood up tremblingly, knelt down in front of Li Yan and begged for mercy: "I was too arrogant just now and offended you, Senior. Please have mercy and spare my life!"

In front of the Grandmaster, he could only bow his head temporarily and admit his mistake.

Li Yan nodded: "You are quite sensible, as you can bend and stretch."

Upon hearing this, Prince Zhou showed a hint of joy on his face.

He thought Li Yan was going to let him go and that he had escaped, and he was filled with excitement.

At the same time, he was thinking in his heart, why did Li Yan treat him like this today and wait for him to return to the palace.

I will definitely ask my father to send someone to capture Li Yan and bring him to the palace to torture him, in retaliation for the humiliation of kneeling and begging for mercy today.

However, Li Yan's next sentence sent him directly to hell.

"If you are just claiming to be noble, I might spare your life. But you are cruel, and sparing you will only give you the opportunity to commit more sins, so I will not let you go."

Li Yan flicked his fingers and two sword energies shot out.

Although the old man in black robe tried his best to block one sword energy, the other sword energy still pierced the Prince of Zhou's forehead.

The Prince of Zhou was terrified, collapsed to the ground, and was silent in an instant.

The old man in black robe was shocked and a look of sadness appeared in his eyes.

He has been looking after the elders of the Crown Prince, even though the Crown Prince does have a somewhat cruel temperament.

But all the people who were killed were sentenced to death because they offended the prince.

People like him who are loyal to the prince are often rewarded by the prince.

Seeing the prince die at this moment, endless anger surged in his heart.

Thinking that the prince was dead, he would be held accountable even if he survived.

So he drew out the long sword of the soldier beside him and was ready to fight Li Yan to the death.

"He is a loyal servant, but unfortunately he chose the wrong master."

Li Yan shook his head and no longer held back. He released several sword energies and easily killed the old man in black robe.

"kill!"

However, the soldiers did not retreat at all when seeing this, but rushed towards Li Yan, wanting to fight with him to the death.

Li Yan hesitated for a moment, but ultimately decided not to kill.

He just condensed his true energy and slapped out a huge palm, which seriously injured them all.

Then he said to the seriously injured soldiers calmly: "Take the body of the Zhou prince back and tell the king of Zhou a message for me."

"My name is Li Yan. If you want to seek revenge on me, I welcome you at any time. But next time, I will not hold back."

Li Yan's strength was so great that it seemed like these soldiers were not able to cope with him.

They knew that if they wanted revenge, they could only let King Zhou arrange the action personally.

So these soldiers could only carry the body of the Zhou prince with sadness on their faces and leave miserably.

Si Linhai knelt in front of Li Yan and cried to him, "Senior, now that Prince Zhou is dead, how should our Dahe Gang cope with this?"

"Please, senior, point out a place for our Dahe Gang."

The reason why Si Linhai did this was, on the one hand, that he really felt something.

Knowing that Prince Zhou was dead, the Dahe Gang would most likely suffer an unexpected disaster.

On the other hand, he also realized that Li Yan's temperament was not as cruel as the Prince of Zhou.

So he wanted Li Yan to take action to solve the current situation of the Dahe Gang, or to point out a clear way forward for the Dahe Gang.

Li Yan killed the Prince of Zhou in the Dahe Gang. No matter how the Dahe Gang explains, it is difficult for them to get away with the crime.

It is almost certain that the King of Zhou will vent his anger on you.

Li Yan is not afraid of King Zhou's revenge. In Si Linhai's opinion, the forces behind him will definitely help the Dahe Gang resist King Zhou.

So he wanted to follow Li Yan and join the forces behind Li Yan.

Li Yan saw through Si Linhai's plan at a glance.

Although the Dahe Gang is a gang, in addition to cunning and fierce people, there are also many kind people in the gang.

If he just left, these good people in the Dahe Gang would surely suffer because of the death of Prince Zhou.

It would be fine if he didn't have the power to care about the lives of these people.

Since he has the power, there is no need to let these good people suffer because of the decisions he made.

Li Yan smiled slightly, shook his head and said, "I haven't found the place yet, how can I show you the way?"

Si Linhai's face turned pale in an instant.

While in Xingzhou, without Li Yan's guidance, his Dahe Gang would never be able to escape King Zhou's encirclement.

If he walked alone, it would be fine.

But he didn't want to abandon his brothers in the Dahe Gang, so he was full of worries at the moment.

"Although I can't show you the way, since I am the one who brought this disaster upon the Dahe Gang, I will end it by myself."

"I will wait here for King Zhou to send someone, and I will not let King Zhou take action against the Dahe Gang."

"When they return defeated, I think they will not embarrass you anymore."

"By then, whether you leave Xingzhou and go to other places, or continue to stay here, you should not be affected."

Li Yan planned to stay in the Dahe Gang and wait for King Zhou to send someone to take revenge.

Since he chose to kill the Crown Prince of Zhou, it was only natural for the King of Zhou to send people to seek revenge.

He won't let the Dahe Gang take the blame for him.

Li Yan's words made Si Linhai ecstatic.

He originally thought that the Dahe Gang would not be able to escape the disaster.

Unexpectedly, Li Yan would stay in the Dahe Gang and wait for King Zhou's revenge.

As long as Li Yan can stop King Zhou from taking revenge, King Zhou will never dare to attack the Dahe Gang again in the future.

Jiang Long was also shocked.

Although he knew that Li Yan was not a vicious person, otherwise he would not have released his control over him and even taught him how to practice.

But now Li Yan's choice still makes him admire
Although he knew Li Yan's strength, King Zhou could not be Li Yan's opponent.

But for the sake of the Dahe Gang's disciples, he even stayed in the Dahe Gang to fight King Zhou alone for revenge.

Such behavior can be considered a great kindness.

Ordinary people in the martial arts world only want to kill to their heart's content, and few of them will care about ordinary people who suffer from the aftermath.

Although the Dahe Gang is a strong gang, in a contest of this level, it is no different from ordinary people.

Thinking of this, he prepared to talk to Si Linhai.

In case Si Linhai does not recognize Li Yan's strength and makes an irrational decision in order to resolve King Zhou's anger.
