Hearing this, the leader sneered, "Haha, kid, aren't you a bit too naive?"
"You think we'd be scared off by a mid-stage Divine King like Xu Yuanliang, that fool?"
Zhou Yan frowned and reprimanded coldly, "What do you want?"
"What do we want? Naturally, we want to kill you!"
"Hahaha, a mere early-stage Divine King dares to challenge us? You're practically asking for death."
"We three will personally twist off this kid's head and offer it as a sacrifice to Xu Yuanliang!"
Hearing this, Zhou Yan's expression changed drastically, and a surge of anger welled up within him.
"You three despicable scoundrels, you want to kill me? You're overestimating yourselves!"
"No matter who it is, they are trash in the face of absolute strength!"
"You are just three ordinary people and are not qualified to make a move on me at all."
Zhou Yan snorted coldly.
Upon hearing these words, the three youths were instantly enraged, "What did you say? We three are trash?"
"What a sharp tongue you have. I'd like to see if your tongue is sharper, or our fists are harder?"
The three of them simultaneously swung their fists and attacked Zhou Yan.
A cold glint flashed in Zhou Yan's eyes.
He was not afraid of these three, but if he were to clash head-on with them, he would likely be at a disadvantage.
Therefore, he decided to employ a flanking strategy and delay time as much as possible.
"Kid, since you refuse a toast and insist on a fine, don't blame us for being ruthless!"
The three roared, stomped their feet, and their bodies transformed into three streaks of light, whistling towards Zhou Yan.
Seeing the three youths charging at him, Zhou Yan smiled coldly.
"Since you want to die, I'll grant you your wish!"
Zhou Yan snorted coldly, his internal true qi surged, and his body shot out.
Sounds of thunder erupted, and the surrounding space seemed to distort.
In an instant, Zhou Yan was in front of the three, raising his right fist to meet them.
"You little brat, how dare you provoke us? You're seeking death!"
The three of them shouted coldly and attacked simultaneously, engaging in a fierce battle with Zhou Yan.
*Bang!*
Zhou Yan's punch collided with the hammers of the three.
A torrent of power exploded from the point where their fists met.
The bodies of the three were instantly sent flying backward, crashing heavily to the ground.
"This... this kid's physique is too formidable. I feel like I can barely withstand his punch."
The three struggled to get up from the ground, their faces filled with shock.
Despite their best efforts to resist that punch, they were still no match, and were sent spitting blood.
"As expected of a mid-stage Divine King cultivator. We are no match for you."
One of them took a deep breath and said solemnly, "In that case, please accompany us. You must obediently come with us to see the clan leader this time."
With that, the three attacked Zhou Yan again.
"Hmph!"
Zhou Yan snorted coldly and swiftly dodged.
His reaction was extremely fast, and his footwork was incredibly agile.
The three burly men in blue robes could not catch Zhou Yan's figure.
At this moment, Zhou Yan suddenly flashed, appearing within five or six meters of the three.
The next second, Zhou Yan vanished from his original spot and appeared beside one of the burly men.
Zhou Yan landed a heavy punch on the man's chest.
The burly man spat out a mouthful of blood, his face turning red, clearly not lightly injured.
The other two blue-robed youths also noticed Zhou Yan, their faces contorting into ferocity as they swung their bronze weapons towards Zhou Yan.
Zhou Yan's eyes turned ice-cold, and his figure suddenly disappeared from his spot.
The bronze weapons slashed against the rocks, creating deafening roars, and the rocks were cut with crack after crack.
"How is this possible?"
The faces of the three were filled with shock.
Zhou Yan had actually dodged their combined attack with his footwork!
The three exchanged glances, drew their swords from their waists, and lunged at Zhou Yan from the left and right.
Three bronze weapons sliced through the air in arcs, aiming for Zhou Yan's vital points from all directions.
"Hmph, mere parlor tricks!"
Zhou Yan snorted coldly, his arms swept out, instantly knocking away the weapons of the three youths.
Then, Zhou Yan forced the three youths back.
"You... how can you be so strong?"
One of the blue-robed youths widened his eyes, a look of deep disbelief on his face.
The three of them were all half-step Divine Kings. In their eyes, Zhou Yan's cultivation was only at the peak of the eighth layer of Qi Refining. According to their estimations, he could at most hold out for a few minutes.
But now, they were being suppressed by Zhou Yan?
How was this possible?
"You three, get lost!"
Zhou Yan looked at the three coldly, his tone somber, "I advise you to get lost quickly, or don't blame me for being impolite!"
"You... you're going too far!"
The blue-robed youth gritted his teeth and said, "We are here under orders. If you don't cooperate, you will be acting against Bronze City, and your fate will be no better than this!"
Zhou Yan glanced at the three indifferently, "Then I truly hope so!"
After speaking, he threw another punch, and the battle with the three youths intensified.
Although the three were young disciples of Bronze City, they were handyman disciples, and their strength was far inferior to that of true disciples.
In just a few exchanges, the three were defeated one after another.
Zhou Yan stared coldly at the three and said, "I advise you to scram quickly, otherwise, don't blame me for being rude!"
The three had ugly expressions.
They did not expect that a new disciple who had just joined the sect would be so strong and overbearing.
"Fine! Very fine! You're arrogant, aren't you? Then I, this old man, will show you my power!"
The leading youth snorted coldly, a look of madness appearing on his face.
"You guys retreat first!"
"Yes, Senior Brother!"
"Yes!"
The other two nodded one after another and then dispersed to the surroundings.
This scene made the onlookers secretly gasp.
They couldn't believe that in front of Zhou Yan, they had no power to fight back. This was too exaggerated!
This was a Divine King realm existence!
Zhou Yan actually hid such a terrifying trump card on his person, it was truly unbelievable!
However, Zhou Yan also had a headache. He did not expect these blue-robed youths to be so troublesome.
Although he could easily deal with these three, it would take too long, and he might even expose his identity.
"You bunch of trash, hurry up and get lost. I'm tired of playing with you."
Zhou Yan frowned and waved his hand impatiently.
Upon hearing this, the three blue-robed youths' expressions flickered. They did not expect that they, three dignified Divine Kings, would be so humiliated in front of this kid.
"You bunch of trash, I can't be bothered to argue with you, get lost quickly!"
Seeing that the three youths did not leave immediately, Zhou Yan roared again.
"You..."
"You scoundrel, who do you think you are, to treat us three like this!"
