Chapter 198: Chapter 198: Innate Master Steps Forward_1
That night, on a small path near the peak of Camel’s Peak.
An elderly man with white hair looked into the distance, his sharp gaze as piercing as a sword, seemingly piercing through the night.
Behind him, a man and a woman stood respectfully on either side.
"Eh? A skilled person is coming..."
At some moment, the white-haired old man suddenly turned his head towards a direction, his already whitened eyebrows furrowing tightly.
"Haha..."
At this time, a shadow suddenly shot from a direction and stopped eight meters away from the white-haired old man, laughing, "Old Man Jiao, I didn’t expect you would want to join in the fun too."
"Old Man Qiu?" Jiao Long spoke, frowning and questioning, "What are you doing on Camel’s Peak in the middle of the night? Shouldn’t you be asleep at home?"
Qiu Yun bellowed in laughter, "Haha, whatever you came to do, I’m here to do too."
"Let’s see if you have that ability." Jiao Long stood with his hands behind his back, a cold smile on his aging face.
"Old Man Jiao, it’s actually quite predictable. I’ve been surpassing you for three years now, and nothing’s changed today. I can still crush you." Qiu Yun laughed heartily then turned into a fading shadow and shot towards the top of the mountain.
Jiao Long’s mouth twitched unnaturally a few times, he said nothing, his face growing cold.
A beautiful woman stepped forward, her elegant eyebrows frowning, "Old Man Jiao, with Old Man Qiu here, things will be a bit difficult!"
A middle-aged man also stepped forward, but didn’t say anything.
Jiao Long waved his sleeve and snorted coldly, "So what if he’s here? The thing I, Jiao Long, want to get, a single Qiu Yun won’t be able to stop me."
The beautiful woman and middle-aged man exchanged worried glances, saying no more, but their eyes were filled with deep concern.
They had followed Jiao Long for many years, knowing his strength. However, Old Man Qiu was even stronger. Despite the fact that he had broken into the Innate Realm later than Jiao Long, he was still frighteningly powerful.
...
Because of the unusual phenomena that occurred the day before yesterday at dusk, Camel’s Peak was especially busy today. As soon as it was light, many people came to the top of Camel’s Peak to satisfy their curiosity.
As more and more people arrived, the commotion grew louder. The students couldn’t sleep anymore. They crawled out of their tents, cleaned up, and started preparing breakfast.
Of course, the noise was only part of the reason. They mostly wanted to show off in front of the opposite sex, which motivated the students to get involved.
Zhang Xian stood to one side, puffing on a cigarette, watching the passers-by, he had no intention of helping out.
Once the meal was ready, he immediately threw away his cigarette butt, trotted over, picked up the food and started eating, showing no politeness at all.
The students didn’t say anything upon seeing this. Zhang Xian’s strength was evident. Additionally, he had close relationships with the three beauties of the school. To pick on Zhang Xian was to make things difficult for themselves.
Soon, breakfast was over.
After cleaning up, the students began to search on top of the mountain, hoping to find some clues about the unusual phenomena that occurred the day before yesterday.
Zhang Xian was also searching.
However, his purpose was different from the others.
Walking at the front of the crowd, his gaze swept around him. When it passed over an old man not far away, he froze his gaze.
The old man in the distance was dressed a bit strangely, wearing a black robe in the big hot day, tightly wrapped up. Of course, it wasn’t the man’s dress that interested him, but the fluctuation of True Qi that he felt from the old man. Although not very strong, it’s still top-tier in the city. Moreover, this kind of aura was the second time he had encountered it.
What puzzled him was that the aura of this old man seemed a bit different from the fluctuation he sensed last night, but it wasn’t very obvious and he couldn’t further confirm it.
As if sensing Zhang Xian’s gaze, the black-robed old man suddenly turned his head and smiled at Zhang Xian.
"Uh..." Zhang Xian wiped his nose and returned a smile.
Lin Ruoyi watched Zhang Xian, seeing him exchanging ’meaningful glances’ with an old man, she contemptuously said, "Zhang Xian, you have heavy taste!"
Zhang Xian was taken aback, asking, "What do you mean?"
Lin Ruoyi said, "I just saw you flirting with an old man, isn’t that a heavy taste?"
Upon hearing this, Zhu Yan couldn’t help laughing. Just now, she too noticed Zhang Xian ’flirting’ with an old man, and she could tell, Zhang Xian didn’t know the old man at all.
Du Xinyan also found it amusing, unable to suppress the smile on her face.
Zhang Xian’s mouth twitched unnaturally a few times, looked at Lin Ruoyi and smiled, "No choice, the old man is more attractive than you! Regrettably, you are really not successful."
Lin Ruoyi angrily said, "Zhang Xian, you..."
Zhang Xian sneered, not paying attention to Lin Ruoyi anymore. He grabbed Zhu Yan’s hand and strode forward.
Zhu Yan smiled, turned her head and stuck her tongue out at Lin Ruoyi, happily leaning against Zhang Xian’s shoulder.
"You..." Lin Ruoyi was so pissed.
Du Xinyan gave Lin Ruoyi a sympathetic look, then quickly caught up. She found the relationship between Zhang Xian and Lin Ruoyi really strange, every time they got together they would start to bicker.
"Hey, little miss, where are you going?"
Suddenly, a few flashy young men blocked Zhang Xian’s path.
Clearly, they were attracted by the beauty of Zhu Yan, Lin Ruoyi, and Du Xinyan. Despite Zhang Xian facing many of them, they still decided to come over and bother them.
"Hey, what do you think you’re doing?" A student stepped forward.
Then, Wang Lei stepped to the front of the crowd, swaggeringly saying, "Who let this little twerp in? Get out of my way."
"What? You intend to gang up on us?" The leading youth sneered, "It seems you don’t know who we are! I admit, you do outnumber us right now. But I must warn you, to confront us, you need a certain level of power. Otherwise, one call from me, and none of you will make it down from Camel’s Peak safely today."
"What do you amount to?" Zhang Xian put one hand on Wang Lei’s shoulder and said, "Open your bloody eyes and see. This is Young Master Wang. What, are you all blind?"
Wang Lei started, then straightened up, arrogantly saying, "You lot better not mess with me."
"Ha, so what if you are Young Master Wang?" The leading youth flicked his hair, ordering, "Guys, drag this guy out and beat him up."
A few underlings seized Wang Lei upon hearing this and began dragging him away.
"What the hell do you think you’re doing?" Terrified, Wang Lei screamed, "I’m the young master of the Brother’s Security Company. Daring to hit me? You have a death wish?"
"Brother’s Security Company?" The leading youth seemed to know of such a company, but didn’t pay it much mind.
Seeing other students about to move forward to help, he glared and angrily shouted, "I want to see who dares to raise a hand against me. Whoever does, I will kill. Any volunteers for death?"
His words had a chilling effect. Zhang Xian made no overt move, and the students didn’t dare to continue to show off.
What did it matter to them if Wang Lei got hit? All along, Wang Lei and this group had kept to themselves, not part of their world. They had only wanted to step in because they felt it was solidarity.
"Ah..." A miserable cry rang out. Young Master Wang had been hit.
Zhang Xian chuckled, not bothering about Wang Lei, and linking his arm with Zhu Yan’s, led her away.
"Stop..." The leading youth once again blocked Zhang Xian’s way and said while his face turned cold, "You all can go, but these three beauties cannot leave."
Zhang Xian smirked, raising his hand to slap the leading youth across the face, calling out, "Fellow students, let’s go at them. If anything happens, I, Zhang Xian, will take the blame."
The students got excited and charged at the young men. With the unparalleled Zhang Xian taking responsibility, what was there to fear? And besides, no one wanted to be seen as weak in front of the girls, right?
"You...what the hell do you think you’re doing..."
The leading youth, who had just been slapped, was about to retaliate when he saw the students charging at him. He was quite frightened. "I’m somebody from the Jinwan Casino. Do you dare hit me?"
At this, Zhang Xian froze.
He had been slightly curious earlier. Wang Lei seemed to have some status in Yantai; people normally wouldn’t dare to make a move on him.
At this point, he understood. These guys were from the Jinwan Casino. Apparently, the one leading them had quite a high position in the casino. So much so that he even dared to hit Wang Lei.
Upon hearing these words, the students suddenly paused in their tracks.
They had a vague idea about the Jinwan Casino, which seemed to be a substantial force in Yantai. If this guy really was from there, their actions would be suicidal.
"Keep hitting them," Zhang Xian said with a smile. "Whatever happens, I’ll sort it out for you."
The students hesitated a bit, not daring to provoke the Jinwan Casino.
Zhang Xian smirked, "What’s the matter? Are you all cowards?"
Lin Ruoyi also pouted, looking at Zhang Xian and saying, "Hey, can’t you handle it yourself? Why get them involved? These guys are from the Jinwan Casino, and the students are afraid to offend them."
At this, the students felt affronted, gritted their teeth and rushed over, pinning the young men to the ground and beating them relentlessly.
Not too far away, an elder man dressed in a black robe, thin and drawn, watched with interest, a vague and strange smile on his face.
"Old Man Qiu, what are you doing here? Still in the mood to watch kids fighting?"
Shortly after, Jiao Long appeared with a man and a woman, "There are treasures up on Camel’s Peak. Shouldn’t you be making the most of your time searching for them?"
Qiu Yun chuckled, "No rush, you can’t beat me anyway."
"Cough, cough..." Jiao Long coughed, saying coldly, "Old Man Qiu, don’t gloat here with me."
Qiu Yun just laughed and didn’t respond to Jiao Long, but continued watching the fight not far away.
He had searched for more than half the previous night, walking all over the mountaintop without finding anything. Hence, he was waiting to see if any other signs appeared.
Searching blindly wasn’t necessarily the correct approach.
Seeing Qiu Yun fixated on the fight not too far away, Jiao Long also turned his head curiously for a look.
Recognizing the youth lying on the ground, he couldn’t help but smile bitterly. Wasn’t that the nephew of Ouyang Shuo? How did he end up being beaten on the ground on Camel’s Peak?
"Old Man Jiao, save me!"
The leading youth’s face lit up when he saw the elderly man, and he hastily called out for help.
Jiao Long was a bit hesitant, but finally walked over, "Who among you is the leader? Step forward and let this man go."
Seeing an Innate Realm master defending these guys, Zhang Xian frowned. However, he didn’t back down. He stepped forward and said, "I’m not the leader, but I was the one who called for the attack."
Jiao Long turned around, his piercing gaze landed on Zhang Xian, seeming as if he wanted his gaze to penetrate Zhang Xian’s heart like a sword.
