Awakening the Phoenix Flow System after the breakup, I'm so happy!

The poisonous vine missed its target and instead embedded itself deeply into the bluestone slab, corroding the hard stone and creating several large, black-smoking holes.

Lin Qingzhi leaned against Chen Yang's broad chest, listening to his steady and powerful heartbeat, and her whole body went limp.

From childhood to adulthood, she had always shouldered the burden of the entire family alone, and had never experienced the sense of security of being protected under someone's wings.

As long as you're held in these arms, even if the sky falls, someone will hold you up.

"Stay still and close your eyes."

Chen Yang looked down at the girl who was still trembling in his arms, his tone as gentle as if he were coaxing a child.

After calming Lin Qingzhi down, Chen Yang turned to look at the wooden demon that was still baring its teeth and claws and acting crazy.

"I was originally thinking of just slapping you to death and that would be the end of it."

"Since you, you beast, dare to touch my people, then don't blame me for being ruthless."

Chen Yang suppressed his casual smile and took a deep breath of the moist air around him.

He quickly made several hand seals in front of his chest.

The Water Separation and Absorption Technique I learned at the bottom of Pearl Lake, combined with the Wood Vein Spiritual Energy I sensed in Hundred Herbs Valley just now.

The insights gained from the pool of spiritual spring water in the system space were all now merging and connecting in my mind.

Chen Yang opened his right hand and made a grasping motion in the air.

The valley is perpetually filled with thick, lingering moisture, and puddles of water flow from broken pipes.

In the blink of an eye, they all flew into the air, defying the laws of physics.

Not only that, Chen Yang also secretly mixed some of the spiritual spring water in the space into it.

As soon as these vibrant spiritual springs appeared, they resonated wonderfully with the spiritual energy of the surrounding wood veins.

Under the extreme compression of Chen Yang's powerful internal energy, the clear water droplets rapidly stretched and thinned, condensing into palm-sized, transparent water blades as thin as cicada wings.

Sunlight streamed through the gaps in the leaves, and the water blade gleamed with a blinding, cold light.

"go."

Chen Yang uttered a single word lightly.

Hundreds upon hundreds of high-pressure water blades, like a torrential downpour sweeping across the ground, engulfed the Wood Demon.

The cutting power of this water blade is ridiculously high.

Those purple poison vines, harder than steel, are no match for the high-speed spinning water blades.

The continuous, slicing sounds were enough to send chills down one's spine.

In less than half a minute.

The giant wooden demon that had been so arrogant just moments before was shattered into a pile of wood chips by this storm of water blades.

Before even a single drop of green juice could splash out, it was completely evaporated by the pure Yang energy carried by the high-temperature water blade.

The entire courtyard fell into a deathly silence.

Several Black Feather assassins couldn't even hold their guns steady; their legs buckled, and they all collapsed to their knees.

Is this something a human being could do?

Not only can it control water remotely and turn it into a knife, but it can also slice such a huge monster into shreds.

Lin Changhai was so frightened that his crotch was soaked, and a foul stench flowed down his trousers onto the bluestone slab.

He scrambled to Chen Yang's feet, about to kowtow and beg for forgiveness.

Chen Yang didn't even glance at him, and kicked the old man right in the chest.

Lin Changhai flew out like a tattered sack with a leak, crashing heavily into a stone pillar in the ancestral hall and losing consciousness completely.

Lin Qingzhi slowly opened her eyes and looked at the mess of monster remains scattered all over the ground.

Then look up at Chen Yang standing next to her, whose suit jacket wasn't even wrinkled.

Her beautiful big eyes were filled with undisguised adoration.

"Is the old man alright?"

Chen Yang withdrew his inner energy, pinched Lin Qingzhi's delicate cheek, and casually asked a question.

Lin Qingzhi then snapped out of her daze and quickly ran over to help the old man up from the ground.

Although the old man suffered internal injuries, fortunately, his heart meridian was protected just now.

He was panting heavily, looking at Chen Yang with a face full of shock and admiration.

"Thank you so much, young friend, for saving me. I truly don't know how to express my gratitude..."

Just as the old man was about to bow and express his gratitude...

A sudden gust of cold wind swept in without warning outside the smashed gate of the ancestral hall.

In broad daylight, the light in the entire courtyard suddenly dimmed eerily.

Fallen leaves and wood chips swirled into the air, slowly coalescing into a thick, dark fog.

The oppressive force emanating from the thick fog made it difficult for Lin Qingzhi and the old man to breathe.

soon.

The black mist slowly dispersed to both sides.

A man wearing a long black trench coat and an owl mask slowly emerged from the mist.

The man's footsteps were very light; his black leather shoes made no sound at all on the gravel.

But with each step he took forward, the surrounding air seemed to freeze, and the temperature plummeted.

Chen Yang took a half-step forward without making a sound, protecting Lin Qingzhi and the old man of the Lin family behind him.

The pure yang energy within his body circulated rapidly, keeping the oppressive chill three feet away.

The masked man stopped and casually put his hands in the pockets of his trench coat.

Through that eerie owl mask, one could clearly feel a highly aggressive gaze scrutinizing Chen Yang.

"The water vein array at the bottom of Pearl Lake, and the soil vein that was aborted halfway through in the antique street."

The man tilted his head, his voice beneath the mask carrying a hoarse, metallic quality.

"In all these years, you are the first person in Jiangcheng who has dared to pull out two of my nails in a row."

Chen Yang casually flexed his wrist, took two steps forward, and still wore his signature lazy smile.

"Since you know I pulled them out, why did you come all this way in broad daylight? Are you here to personally deliver my sales quota?"

Night Owl chuckled softly and shook his head through the mask.

"I've always been a bit protective of my own. Although the dogs I keep are stupid, they're not just any Tom, Dick, or Harry that I can kill indiscriminately."

He slowly withdrew his right hand and pointed at the girl behind Chen Yang who was still trembling.

"How about we make a deal? You hand over that girl from the Lin family to me, and I'll let you die a quick death later. What do you say?"
