Battle Through the Heavens: I confronted Xiao Yan, and he begged me to be his elder brother.

Chapter 84 Yao Chen is relieved, Xiao Yan: Big brother, save me!

"Yao Chen, we're all old friends, won't you come out and greet us?" Protector Wu chuckled strangely.

As Xiao Yan was being watched by countless gazes, a light shone from his body, and then a semi-transparent figure appeared.

Yao Chen calmly replied, "Do you believe you can't touch me today?"

"Heh heh..." Protector Wu seemed to have heard a huge joke. "If you had regained your physical body, it wouldn't be a problem for you to say this. After all, you are the Medicine Venerable, and you should be given some respect. But..."

After a slight pause, Protector Wu changed the subject, his tone turning cold: "You are merely a soul entity. So what if you possess a strange fire? My Soul Palace has plenty of ways to deal with soul entities."

"You can try if you don't believe me." Yao Chen shrugged confidently. "I'm this guy's teacher now. You'd better think carefully before you make a move."

Two beams of red light emerged from the black mist, like eyes, locking onto Xiao Yan and scrutinizing him for a while.

Protector Wu scoffed, "I didn't see anything special about this guy either. A disciple of Zhongzhou, or a member of one of the Eight Clans? Yao Chen, you're using him to intimidate me. You haven't been tricked, have you? Believe me or not, even if I kill him, nothing will happen to me."

Upon hearing this, Yao Chen was not angry but delighted: "Alright, go ahead and do it. If you dare to kill him, I will willingly return to the Soul Palace with you and will not resist."

The two were not wary of outsiders during their conversation.

Therefore, Xiao Yan also heard their conversation.

He immediately started cursing: "You old bastard, I always called you master, and now you're betraying me like this? Let me tell you, my older brother was watching right there."

Upon hearing this, Protector Wu did not act rashly, but said, "Who is your elder brother? Tell him to come out."

The Soul Palace and the Medicine Venerable had been involved in this matter many times before, so for Yao Chen to speak in such a tone, there must be something fishy going on behind the scenes.

"My lord, don't listen to their nonsense, they're just lying to you." Just as Xiao Yan was about to ask Hun Cang for help, and even Hun Cang was about to show himself, Yun Leng suddenly rushed out.

"Oh? What do you know?" Protector Wu asked.

Yun Leng spoke very quickly: "Reporting to my lord, this boy is called Xiao Yan. He comes from a family in a remote small town. Besides him, he has two older brothers. However, those two are of ordinary status, only at the Dou Shi level, and they run a mercenary group in Shimo City."

Protector Wu looked at Xiao Yan: "Is what he said correct?"

"There's absolutely nothing wrong with it," Xiao Yan said frankly, but the killing intent in his eyes as he looked at Yun Leng was even stronger.

If he knew so much about his own family, then his previous threat to take action against his family was probably not unfounded.

This kind of person must be killed!

"My lord, they are deliberately deceiving you. You should kill them quickly!" Yun Leng urged, unable to contain his excitement.

This person's origins are unknown, but since he can make the hidden soul within Xiao Yan manifest, his strength must be extraordinary. Xiao Yan, you're doomed now.

Black mist surged, accompanied by the sound of chains sliding.

Protector Wu said coldly, "Then you can die. After I kill you, I'll deal with Yao Chen."

A chain, as thick as a thigh, entirely black, and covered with intricate patterns, emerged from the black mist.

Like a black lightning bolt ripped through the void, it rushed straight towards Xiao Yan's head.

The chains gleamed with a cold light, emanating a terrifying aura that seemed capable of piercing through even space itself.

Yun Ling's eyes were wide open, and she didn't dare to blink, for fear of missing the scene of Xiao Yan being killed and thus being unable to erase the humiliation she had suffered during this period.

However, when his gaze fell on Xiao Yan's face, he found that Xiao Yan was not flustered at all.

Yunling was stunned.

Why? What other tricks does Xiao Yan have up his sleeve? How can he maintain such a calm and collected demeanor?

"Big brother, help!" Seeing the chains shooting towards him, Xiao Yan glanced at Yao Chen, who was unmoved and even had a gloating expression. He was so angry that he shouted helplessly.

Without Yao Chen providing him with power, there would be absolutely no way to resist such an attack.

The thought of all that showing off I'd spent the whole day making excuses, only to be begging for help now, is truly unbearable.

Xiao Yan felt that the image he had worked so hard to build was gone.

"Hehehe..." Protector Wu laughed when he heard Xiao Yan's voice. Asking a Dou Shi for help? That's ridiculous!

Xiao Ding and Xiao Li looked anxious and worried, turning aside and pleadingly looking at Hun Cang.

Sigh... How much has Yao Chen been tormented by Xiao Yan? In order to teach him a lesson, he actually deliberately induced Protector Wu to attack Xiao Yan, Hun Cang thought to himself.

He had met with Yao Chen before and mentioned his relationship with the Soul Palace. He assured Yao Chen that Protector Wu would not act recklessly as long as Yao Chen mentioned his name.

But Yao Chen refused to say anything, and Xiao Yan was unaware of his connection to the Soul Palace, nor did he know that Protector Wu came from the Soul Palace.

"Soul Wanderer, stop." Soul Cang said calmly, looking at the black mist in the sky.

His voice was soft, as if it might be blown away by the wind at any moment.

Even some disciples who were quite far away in the square couldn't hear Hun Cang's voice clearly.

however.

As if by magic, the chains in the sky suddenly stopped when Hun Cang's voice came out.

This work was compiled and uploaded by [author's name].

At this moment, Xiao Yan was less than a palm's width away from the chains.

Xiao Yan could see almost every line on the chains, and the aura emanating from them, even without contact, was terrifying enough to make one's soul tremble.

"Gulp..." Xiao Yan swallowed hard, suppressing the urge to rush to his throat.

Just then, he heard laughter beside him: "Hehe..."

Turning his head, Xiao Yan saw Yao Chen's gloating expression, and he wasn't sure if he was hallucinating.

As if he hadn't been hit by the chains, a hint of regret flashed across Yao Chen's face.

"That old bastard!!" Xiao Yan almost ground his teeth to powder.

Stopped? Stopped! Yun Leng's eyes widened in fury, his teeth grinding together, his hands clenched tightly, wishing he could rush forward, grab the chains, and stab them into Xiao Yan's body.

"Why stop? We were so close! We were about to kill Xiao Yan! Couldn't we have stopped after we killed him?!" Yun Leng roared inwardly, almost insane.

Suddenly, he remembered the voice he had just heard, and his gaze shifted: "Who was it? Who was speaking just now?"

At that moment, the black mist in the sky contracted, revealing a figure inside. The figure searched the area and, upon seeing the young man standing on the back of the magical beast, rushed towards him without hesitation.

"Lord of the Palace, what are you doing here?" Hunwu knelt on one knee in the void, his eyes filled with deep surprise as he asked.

Jia Lao, Fa Ma, Mittel Tengshan, and the others all showed the same shocked expression.

From beginning to end, they never truly looked at Hun Cang.

I always thought he was just there to watch the game; I never imagined his status was so distinguished.

Lord of the palace?

What kind of Palace Master? How could someone so powerful make him kneel and pay his respects?

What is his/her identity?

One question after another kept popping up, and I was eager to find the answers.

Mittel Tengshan turned to look at Hai Bodong and saw a smile on his face. He suddenly understood why Hai Bodong had been looking in that direction so often before; it turned out he wasn't looking at the Xiao brothers.

"Get up." Hun Cang waved his hand, then pointed at Xiao Yan, "My younger brother has a three-year agreement with the young sect leader of Yunlan Sect today, so I came to check on it."

Following the direction of his finger, Hunwu tilted his head and saw Xiao Yan. Instantly, cold sweat slowly slid down his cheeks.
