Chapter 846 Arrogance

"Zhou Yu, what are you standing there for? Keep counting. After ten breaths, if I don't see Ye Yuan, you'll all be buried with him! No, another breath has passed, so it should be eight." The young man said coldly.

This young man was none other than Zhou Yan, who had traveled from afar.

Zhou Yan was now exceedingly arrogant, giving Tu You no chance to speak.

His purpose was simple: to capture Ye Yuan!

Tu You's expression was extremely grim. He had already lowered his stance so much, but the other party showed no regard.

His appearance had clearly shattered the illusion he had built over many years. But now, with Chixia in its most critical moment, Tu You could no longer care about that.

Tu You gritted his teeth and said, "To be honest with you, young friend, Ye Yuan is not in the Holy Land at the moment."

"Seven!" Zhou Yu continued counting unhurriedly.

Zhou Yan glanced at Tu You indifferently and sneered, "Holy Land? A dying Dao Xuan First Layer dares to call this place a Holy Land? Heh, I don't care if he's here or not. I only know that he is your young master. Finding you is the right move! Also, 'young friend' is not for you to call."

Tu You's face darkened, trembling with rage at Zhou Yan's words.

This Zhou Yan was utterly unreasonable. Ye Yuan's fate was unknown; where could he find Ye Yuan?

Even if Ye Yuan were truly here, he would not hand him over!

But this Zhou Yan was too arrogant, showing no respect for the Chixia Holy Land.

"This is too much! Do you think that bringing a Dao Xuan Third Layer expert means I truly fear you? Hmph! We will not hand over Ye Yuan. If you insist on making trouble, this old man will fight to the death today and slay you here!" Zhou Yan was clearly giving Chixia no way out, and Tu You finally exploded.

Although he was already at the end of his rope, with all his might, he could still kill a Formless Realm martial artist, even if the other side had brought a Dao Xuan Third Layer expert!

Zhou Yan slightly raised his eyelids, looked at Tu You disdainfully, and laughed, "Oh? Just you, an old man with one foot in the grave, dare to spout nonsense? Haha, fine, I'll give you this chance! If you can touch me even once, I'll let you off, how about that?"

Tu You's eyes lit up, and he said, "Are you challenging me to a one-on-one fight?"

"Dealing with trash like you doesn't require Zhou Yu's help. If it weren't for caution, I wouldn't have brought Zhou Yu at all." Zhou Yan said calmly, his words full of contempt for the Chixia Holy Land.

"You said it!"

Although Tu You was displeased by Zhou Yan's contempt, the latter's arrogance gave Chixia Holy Land an opportunity.

Without any hesitation, Tu You directly struck a palm toward Zhou Yan.

A seemingly ordinary palm strike, yet it carried the might of heaven and earth, as if the entire world was pressing down on Zhou Yan.

Such was the power of a Dao Xuan realm expert; they didn't need to deliberately mobilize the primordial power of heaven and earth; every move contained the power of the Dao.

In this era of fading divine paths, the Dao Xuan realm was considered the closest to the Heavenly Dao. Even a Dao Xuan First Layer was terrifyingly powerful.

"Tch, I thought you had some special move, but it's just this. Wasting my time! Break!"

Zhou Yan simply stood still, his eyes glaring, and the air in front of Tu You suddenly exploded, releasing an extremely scorching force.

Caught off guard, Tu You was sent flying backward by the attack.

"Pfft!"

Tu You spat out a mouthful of blood, the death aura on him growing heavier, as if he might die at any moment.

He was already at the end of his rope and could no longer mobilize the primordial power of heaven and earth. Forcing an attack had already used up his last thread of vitality.

At his stage, even moving would cause his vitality to drain, let alone such a powerful strike.

Even if he could survive this ordeal, Tu You probably wouldn't last more than half a year.

After taking this blow, Tu You's expression changed dramatically as he said, "It's a pupil technique, and it's the power of flames. You... you are from the Sunscorch City!"

"What! They are from Sunscorch City in the Daxiang Domain, a first-grade Holy Land!"

"This... Isn't the young master a Transcendent? How could he have provoked a behemoth like Sunscorch City?"

"It's over, completely over! With Sunscorch City's strength, we're not even enough to fill the gaps between their teeth! No wonder this young man is so arrogant; he truly has the capital to be arrogant!"

Sunscorch City and Moonlight City in the Daxiang Domain were very distinctive, both renowned for their rare pupil techniques, known to almost everyone in the Divine Realm.

Before such a first-grade Holy Land, Chixia was nothing.

"Heh, old man, your strength is lacking, but you have some insight. Yes, we are from Sunscorch City. If you don't want the Chixia Holy Land's lineage to be exterminated, I advise you to hand over Ye Yuan!" Zhou Yan said triumphantly.

Tu You shook his head and said, "Ye Yuan truly is not in the Holy Land. I cannot hand him over."

Zhou Yan's face turned cold, and he said sternly, "Hmph! Refusing a toast only to drink a forfeit. It seems you want the entire Chixia to be buried with him! Fine, I'll grant your wish!"

At this point, Tu You had no more illusions.

Although he didn't know how Ye Yuan had offended Zhou Yan, he could clearly feel Zhou Yan's hatred for Ye Yuan.

Zhou Yan's resentment would not be easy to resolve.

"Listen, people of Chixia! Today, Chixia faces an external enemy. I, as the Holy Lord, implore everyone to unite as one and repel the invader!" Tu You suddenly declared loudly to everyone.

This shout signaled a fight to the death.

Over the years, Tu You had managed Chixia like an iron fortress. Although he had not shown his face for many years, his prestige remained.

Coupled with Zhou Yan's tone of killing without mercy, everyone knew there was no escape, so they drew their weapons, ready to fight to the death.

Seeing this, Zhou Yan's face was ashen. He hadn't expected that this broken ninth-grade Holy Land would rather be completely annihilated than hand over a young master who had just Transcended.

What had Ye Yuan done to deserve everyone revolving around him?

Zhou Yan was now on the verge of exploding, and he said harshly, "A bunch of stubborn fools! Since you seek death, I'll send you on your way! Zhou Yu, kill them all, leave no one!"

"Yes, young master!"

As Zhou Yu responded, a powerful pressure instantly enveloped the entire Holy Land.

The strength of a Dao Xuan Third Layer was fully revealed.

"Great Heavenly Sunscorch Palm!"

Zhou Yu stood in the air, struck down with a palm, and a giant palm formed of flames pressed down directly from above.

This giant palm was like an apocalyptic divine hand for Chixia. The terrifying energy fluctuations filled everyone with despair.
