With a heavy thud, Hei Feng Guilao's face turned as pale as paper, a trickle of blood seeping from the corner of his mouth and dripping down.
With a single palm strike, Zhou Yan easily shattered Hei Feng Guilao's defenses. Zhou Yan's strength had already reached the peak of the Earth realm, and he had even comprehended a third-tier martial skill!
"Zhou Yan, you can't kill me, you can't kill me!"
Feeling the pure spiritual energy draining from his body, Hei Feng Guilao's face changed drastically, and he roared hysterically.
"What if I don't kill you?"
Looking at Hei Feng Guilao before him, a cold smile flickered on Zhou Yan's lips, "Since you all wish to die by my hands, then, this young master will grant your wish!"
With that, his figure flickered, and he charged towards Hei Feng Guilao.
Seeing this, a look of fear finally appeared on Yang Jianwu's face. He roared madly, "Zhou Yan, please, don't kill me, I can give you a large amount of rare treasures, as long as you let me go, I can give you anything you want!"
"Zhou Yan, don't kill me, don't kill me!"
As Zhou Yan approached, panic finally welled up in Yang Jianwu's eyes, and he cried out in supplication.
"Too late."
Zhou Yan shook his head, a hint of mockery in his eyes, "It's too late for you to beg for mercy now!"
With that, Zhou Yan stepped on the void and unleashed a palm strike.
"Boom boom!"
A wave of destructive energy swept in all directions, blasting the ground into pieces. Yang Jianwu's body, under the attack of this terrifying energy, was pulverized inch by inch.
A prodigy at the initial stage of the Earth realm was so easily killed.
Such a scene left everyone stunned.
"How is this possible? Yang Jianwu is a genius of the Yang family, ranked among the top three among the younger generation in the entire Jiang Prefecture, yet he was killed by a single palm strike?"
"Zhou Yan, who is he, to be able to kill an Earth realm initial stage expert in one move?"
"Who is this person, how can he be so powerful?"
"Who is he?"
Witnessing this, everyone's hearts were filled with shock, and a question arose in their minds.
"Zhou Yan, you can't kill me, my father Yang Dong is the head of the Yang family in Tianyang County. If you kill me, he will definitely not let you go!"
Feeling Zhou Yan's icy killing intent, boundless fear surged within Yang Jianwu.
Although he was a genius disciple of the Yang family, Yang Dong was an expert at the peak of the Earth realm, far stronger than him, and he was no match for him.
"Yang Dong?"
Zhou Yan curled his lips and sneered coldly, "Don't worry, even if you are a genius disciple of the Yang family, this young master will still kill you!"
As he spoke, a hint of playfulness appeared on Zhou Yan's face, "You are right, Yang Dong is an Earth realm expert in Tianyang County, and also the deputy city lord of Tianyang County. But do you think your father can protect you forever?"
Upon hearing this, Yang Jianwu's face turned ashen.
Although Yang Dong was the deputy city lord of Tianyang County, he was not a person with real power, merely a nominal title.
Above Yang Dong, there was a City Lord whose status was not inferior to that of the deputy city lord.
"What do you want to do?"
Yang Jianwu's heart twitched violently, a look of disbelief in his eyes.
"Of course, I'm going to send you to your demise!"
Zhou Yan's eyes were icy. With a wave of his right hand, his arm suddenly extended, grabbing Yang Jianwu's neck and exerting force, intending to crush his throat.
Feeling the suffocation on his neck, the terror on Yang Jianwu's face instantly vanished, replaced by a ferocious expression, "Zhou Yan, if you kill me, my father will definitely not let you go!" Da Feng Novel Network
"Heh heh."
Upon hearing this, a disdainful smile curved Zhou Yan's lips, "Who do you think your father is? Just a deputy city lord, his cultivation is only at the initial stage of the Earth realm. If I wanted to kill him, it would be as easy as lifting a finger!"
With that, Zhou Yan ignored Yang Jianwu's threat. With a crunch of his right hand, Yang Jianwu's head slumped down like mud.
"People of the Yang family are indeed不堪一击 (difficult to withstand a single blow)!"
Looking at Yang Jianwu's corpse, Zhou Yan shook his head, a look of contempt flashing in his eyes.
"Senior Brother Zhou Yan, you are too amazing, even Yang Zhenwu can be easily suppressed!"
Seeing this, Zhao Yunpeng couldn't help but exclaim, his tone full of admiration.
In his eyes, Zhou Yan's strength was terrifyingly powerful, completely beyond his reach.
"You are not weak either!"
Zhou Yan smiled faintly, "Now, you should understand how insignificant you and Yang Jianwu are in my eyes."
Upon hearing this, Zhao Yunpeng nodded slightly, his eyes filled with reverence.
"Alright, time is almost up. We should leave, otherwise, it will be troublesome if others are attracted."
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhou Yan's figure flickered, and he quickly left the area.
"Senior Brother Zhou Yan, I'll take my leave now. Have a safe journey."
Looking at Zhou Yan's retreating back, Zhao Yunpeng took a deep breath and quickly followed him, leaving the ruins.
...
"Where is this? How did I get here?"
In the ruins of the Yang family, a handsome man in a green robe slowly opened his eyes.
Within his sight, the surrounding scenery was completely unfamiliar, and he had no idea where he was.
"Where am I?"
Yang Jianwu rubbed his slightly swollen head, trying hard to recall what had happened just now.
Suddenly, Yang Jianwu's eyes widened, filled with disbelief.
He remembered that he had been chased by Zhou Yan, and furthermore, he had been instantly killed by a sword strike!
Zhou Yan had not only defeated him but had also driven him into the ruins and completely slain him!
"Zhou Yan, it's Zhou Yan!"
Thinking of all this, a sense of despair surged within Yang Jianwu.
"Zhou Yan!"
A cold voice suddenly echoed in his ears, causing Yang Jianwu's heart to tremble. He looked around.
"Zhou Yan? Who is he?"
"I don't know him, but I know he is an enemy of the Yang family!"
Looking at the person before him, Yang Jianwu was stunned, then his pupils contracted, "Zhou Yan, it's you, you actually dared to kill Yang Jianwu!"
"Hmph, he deserved to die, his death was not in vain!"
Seeing Yang Jianwu's reaction, Zhou Yan sneered.
Yang Jianwu, despite being a genius, was a dissolute young master who acted recklessly, relying on Yang Dong's protection.
Zhou Yan had wanted to teach him a lesson before, but he never found an opportunity.
Now that he had run into him, he naturally wouldn't miss this golden opportunity.
"Hahaha, you say I deserve to die? Do you really think you are the King of Heaven?"
Yang Jianwu sneered repeatedly.
"What do you think?"
Looking at Yang Jianwu's angry face, Zhou Yan's eyes showed no fear, and a mocking smile played on his lips, "Now, I will let you see what an Earth realm expert is!"
