Hide in The Immortal Cultivation World, Strike Hard in the Martial World
Chapter 403 - 197: Seeing Yang Dan Again

"Tan Feng? Quick! Please come and help us!"

Yang Hui, who was in the early stages of Foundation Establishment cultivation level, was overjoyed to see Tan Feng flying over.

Tan Feng had always been trailing after his odious sister, often sending her pills and magical instruments. Their relationship was relatively good.

Now that Tan Feng was present, their combat power had increased significantly, alleviating the pressure on Yang Shenghu.

"Daoist Tan? Your master was ordered not to interfere with this matter. Are you trying to obstruct me as well?"

Zhao Jingwu narrowed his eyes and looked warily at the incoming Tan Feng.

Tan Feng's level of cultivation was still at the peak of the Foundation Establishment stage, and Zhao Jingwu was not afraid of him.

However, Tan Feng's master, True Person Chengji, was very protective. He had once insisted that the Yang family find a new bride for Tan Feng when he had been ill-treated by his wife.

If Tan Feng were to be killed in combat now, the consequences would be dire.

However, Zhao Jingwu and the Yang family now had a feud to the death. There was no way he could let Yang Dan successfully reach Core Formation. If that happened, he would be like a mouse being hunted down.

"Daoist Zhao, I am not interfering with the Yang Family's affairs. However, Yang Dan is my fiancée and this young man is her younger brother. As long as you promise not to harm Yang Hui and not to disturb my fiancée's Core Formation, you can do as you wish afterwards. I will not intervene." said Chen Yi, speaking with his chin raised.

In front of Zhao Jingwu, he assumed the demeanor of Tan Feng, behaving haughtily and unyieldingly. Zhao could not guess that he was the one who had previously bought the Earth Dragon Talisman for 2000 spirit stones.

"Daoist Tan, since you say so, there is no point in discussing further. I have a major grudge against the Yang Family, and I cannot let Yang Dan achieve Core Formation.

Given this, don't blame me for being ruthless!"

With that, Zhao Jingwu's hands shone brightly, and he launched an attack towards Chen Yi and the others.

Chen Yi would naturally not engage him directly, as this would expose his true level of mana.

Without a word, he transformed into a ray of light and flew towards the others of the Yang Family, leaving Yang Shenghu, with the highest cultivation level, to fend off Zhao Jingwu's main attack.

Chen Yi was primarily tasked with protecting Yang Hui, while also maintaining his persona of protecting his lover's younger brother, and observing the battle.

If Zhao Jingwu won against the Yang elder, then attacked him and Yang Hui, Chen Yi could "desperately" save Yang Hui, send him away, and finally "die" at the hands of Zhao Jingwu. That would be the perfect outcome.

But to his disappointment,

Just after a short bout, the Elder of the Yang family, seeing that Chen Yi could only block adjacent "stray bullets" at best, advised:

"Tan Feng, you take Yang Hui and go first. Ensure you bring him to his sister. Without seeing him, she might suffer a lapse in her Daoism and have a hard time achieving a successful Core Formation."

Chen Yi was surprised. He really wanted to stay and fight Zhao Jingwu to the death, but to avoid revealing his identity, he could only agree

"Alright! Rest assured, for Dandan's sake, I will do my best!" He replied, his voice full of the excitement reserved for one about to safeguard his lover's advancement into Core Formation.

Then, Chen Yi summoned a Flying Boat. Pulling Yang Hui onto the boat, and with his guidance, they headed in a north-western direction.

Surprised by their destination, Chen Yi noted that it was an entrance to the Demon Territory, and there was no high-grade spiritual vein residing nearby.

He had not expected that Yang Dan's location for her Core Formation was in the Demon Territory.

It appeared that the Yang family had been working discreetly behind the scenes during the recent Beast Wave invasion of Wangyue Island. They must have found a hidden third-tier spiritual vein suitable for Yang Dan's Core Formation in the Demon Territory.

Behind them, Yang Shenghu summoned a shield and extended his mana to the maximum, desperately blocking Zhao Jingwu's intense attack, buying time for Chen Yi and Yang Hui.

On the Flying Boat, guided by Yang Hui, Chen Yi headed towards an extremely dense demonic aura emitting entrance.

"Big Brother Tan Feng, we're about to enter the Demon Territory. The third-tier Demon Beast guarding this region has been lured away and killed by our elders. However, there are still some second-tier Demon Beasts. It's dangerous inside. Thank you for this journey. When we arrive, I'll be sure to tell my sister about your kindness!"

Chen Yi really wanted to say that he didn't care about Yang Dan's opinion. He wanted to slow down and wait for Zhao Jingwu to catch up for a good battle. But with things at this point, Chen Yi didn't have much choice unless he killed Yang Hui and left.

However, Yang Hui didn't bear any personal grudge against Chen Yi, and likewise, Chen Yi was not the sort to kill indiscriminately.

Yang Dan had previously hindered Chen Yi's Core Formation, which was the only grudge between them. Killing his friends and family for this was not in the style of Chen Yi.

Furthermore, the original purpose of Chen Yi's trip was to avenge his previous pushback from Core Formation by Yang Dan.

He thought that if Yang Dan were there, the talisman scroll he contributed to the Warner Gang would have destroyed the Yang family's third-tier spiritual vein and hindered Yang Dan's Core Formation, thus settling their feud. However, Yang Dan wasn't there. In fact, the Yang family had ingeniously made a strategic move to divert attention.

Thus, should Chen Yi encounter Yang Dan again and have the opportunity, he would certainly strike.

Now, by coincidence, he came across the Yang family and Zhao Jingwu on his way home.

In this case,

why not take a trip to the Demon Territory? As there were no third-tier Demon Beasts, Chen Yi was certainly safe.

If he had the chance to disrupt Yang Dan's Core Formation, so be it. Otherwise, it would still be interesting to observe her Core Formation process.
