Chapter 66

After they all teleported away, Yue Yang immediately vanished and appeared in front of a tunnel. He went inside after observing it with his senses.

After finding his destination, he dashed in that direction. He reached there in no time.

There was a hot spring lake with steam rising slightly. There were many small islets floating like a chain of islands on the hot spring lake, with each islet having many different kinds of weird plants growing on them. Yue Yang had seen this phenomenon before.

Yue Yang looked around for some time before looking in a certain direction and saying, "Why don't you come out and greet me? It's not like I'm going to eat you."

A black silhouette appeared at some distance. With a unique, magnetic voice, he asked, "Little brat, How can you know that I'm hiding?"

Yue Yang smiled and explained that he only guessed because there were two different cuts on the fruit which indicated that they were cut by two different people. As he had already met one so that means the other one was still hiding here.

The other person was very surprised by his reasoning and praised him for that. He asked, "Little boy, Do you know who I am?"

Yue Yang smiled and replied, "No"

The person said in an angry tone, "What? You don't know who I am."

Yue Yang grinned, "But I can at least make a guess."

The person looked at him with interest and said, "Oh! Little boy, If you're able to guess my identity then I'll let you go alive otherwise I'll kill you."

Yue Yang laughed and said to him, "Do you really think I can't feel the killing intent you're hiding. I know you'll kill me even if I guessed your Identity."

The person was amazed and asked, "If you already know about this then why don't you try to run away."

Yue Yang laughed again and replied, "Do you think I'm a fool? I know you have already attacked if I try to run away. And I have heard many things about you which piqued my interest. So I want to see you with my own eyes, The Marquis of Zi Jin."

Marquis of Zi Jin was the publicly recognized ranker whose strength was said to be even stronger than the three emperors.

"You've heard my name. Should you not bow in respect to me? Not mentioning that I'm a noble, I am after all your senior and a ranker. Shouldn't you give your proper respects?" the Marquis of Zi Jin looked at Yue Yang using his especially arrogant face.

"Do you intend to smash my head the moment I bowed to pay my respects?" Yue Yang said naturally.

Marquis of Zi Jin said in an amusing tone, "Do you really think I have to smash your head while you're bowing?"

Yue Yang changed his facial expression to serious and said, "Let's settle this fast. I've more important things to do."

Marquis of Zi Jin asked interested, "And what are those important things."

Yue Yang replied, "I have to take care of my little sister, train some idiots, and most importantly flirt with two beautiful and hot girls."

Marquis of Zi Jin laughed. Suddenly his expression changed and he released his killing intent.

But he was surprised to find that Yue Yang was unaffected by his killing intent. He was even more surprised to see that Yue Yang didn't use a teleportation scroll to run away but he was calmly looking at him.

Now, the Marquis of Zi Jin was not anxious to kill Yue Yang. He wanted to test out Yue Yang's capabilities first.

Marquis of Zi Jin summoned his Platinum Grimoire and summoned a silver-ranked beast. It was a freakish dog-like animal with a human body, ox legs, and bat wings. It looked extremely ugly.

Yue Yang could see that The marquis had already summoned a gold-ranked level 7 Blood Scythe Demon.

Yue Yang didn't summon his grimoire. He only took out his gold-ranked crescent blades.

Seeing the gold-ranked weapon, the marquis was really surprised. He never thought that such a little brat should possess a gold-ranked weapon.

Yue Yang dashed towards the ugly beast and slashed at it. The ugly beast possessed some intelligence and it dodged but Yue Yang kicked him into the lake. Yue Yang also jumped inside.

The ugly beast came out and slashed his large sword. Yue Yang deflected it with his blade easily. Yue Yang took advantage of the situation and immediately slashed his wings.

Yue Yang said coldly, "Go to hell and be a water ghost!"

The ugly beast dropped onto the lake's surface with a loud sound.

Suddenly, a fist cast a shadow onto Yue Yang's head. "You too go to hell to be a water ghost."

It was the Marquis of Zhi Jin.

When his fist hit Yue Yang's face, Marquis of Zhi Jin laughed coldly and snorted. "Young fellow, you are still too green."

However, in the one-thousandth of a second, in the instant that the force of the fist had exploded, he discovered that the masked brat under his fist had disappeared...

At the same time, in the sky, with a frightening amount of power that seemed to be capable of overturning seas and waves, an unstoppable clenched fist ruthlessly punched Marquis of Zhi Jin's vital pressure point on his back.

It was Yue Yang.

Some time unknowingly, he and the Marquis of Zhi Jin had exchanged positions, and furthermore, they had also exchanged roles.

From being attacked, to become the attacker.

Yue Yang smashed him into the face. The marquis fell into the lake.

But Yue Yang was calmly looking at the lake.

Marquis of Zi Jin stood up on top of the lake surface in a strange manner. He first summoned a flaming strengthening-type beast from his grimoire to fuse with his body, then he raised his hands slowly and twisted his neck back.

Yue Yang looked at him deeply and said, "So, my guess is correct. You're not a human."

The marquis looked at him with hate and dashed towards him.

They both clashed for some time.

When Yue Yang was distracted with his fight, the Blood Scythe Demon appeared behind him. The marquis of Zi Jin also attacked from the front.

Just as Yue Yang wanted to counter-attack, a figure appeared in front of him and summoned a grimoire to extend a shield to protect him.

Yue Yang smiled and grabbed the figure from behind.

He whispered in her ear, "What are you doing here beautiful? Didn't I tell you to protect my sister outside?"

The person who appeared was non-other than Xue Wu Xia.

She looked at him with her usual cold expression, "Your sister is worried about you. She wants to come here but I told her to wait outside and come inside to check on you."

Yue Yang said with a sad expression, "So that means you're not worried about me."

Wu Xia was really surprised by his reply but she turned towards Marquis of Zi Jin and asked, "Who is he?"

Yue Yang still replied in a sad tone, "He is not someone important. The important thing is I'm very sad. You don't worry about me even when I have already been dead right now."

Marquis of Zi Jin was angry after listening to him whereas Wu Xia really didn't know what to say.
