Chapter 477 - 477 A Two-Stage Reversal
Yun Zhiyi’s brows twitched, and his expression seemed to be slightly interested.
Seeing that there was a chance, Zhan Wushuang could not help but be overjoyed. In an instant, he started brainstorming and listed out all the things that the Zhan Clan could offer. However, the final result still did not satisfy Yun Zhiyi.
“If these things can not pique Senior’s interest, then my Zhan Clan can also promise you one thing. Even if my Zhan Clan has to climb a mountain of daggers or plunge into a sea of flames, I will definitely fulfill my promise!”
After thinking hard for a while, Zhan Wushuang said many flattering things.
Although he was not sure what kind of request Yun Zhiyi would make in the future, in his opinion, the most important thing right now was Gu Xi. Now that both of them had a feud, if he let him go today, he would definitely become the number one threat to the Zhan Clan in the future!
It was also because of this that Zhan Wushuang was already prepared to pay a huge price. No matter what price he had to pay today, he had to make Gu Xi stay here forever!
“Forget it. With your Zhan Clan’s strength, I’m afraid you won’t be able to meet my request. There’s no need to waste my time on you.”
Yun Zhiyi shook his head slowly and immediately grabbed at the air below him. Little Nine’s figure appeared in the blink of an eye. At this time, Little Nine was covered in blood, and her breathing was very chaotic. If it was an ordinary cultivator or demon beast, she would have already walked to the gate of hell. Fortunately, Little Nine relied on her abnormal physique of an ancient demon beast to avoid fatal injuries.
Looking at Little Nine’s miserable appearance, Gu Xi’s brows were tightly furrowed. His eyes were filled with deep worry for Little Nine as well as hatred for Zhan Wushuang. However, he was also very dispirited because his spiritual energy was running out, so he dispelled the idea of continuing the fight.
“Sister Little Nine, are you okay?” Song Qingluan frowned and took Little Nine into her arms, her eyes full of worry.
“She’s fine. It’s a good thing that she’s full of life. It’s just some external injuries. She’ll be fine after a period of rest.”
Yun Zhiyi came to a conclusion after a quick glance. He then shifted his gaze back to Zhan Wushuang, who was not far away. He narrowed his eyes and said in a deep voice, “You’ve injured my disciples to this extent, I don’t think I’ve settled the score with you yet, right?”
As soon as he finished speaking, a vast pressure spread out from his body. Zhan Wushuang did not even have the time to react before he was suppressed to the point where he could not move.
Even though he constantly mobilized the remaining spiritual energy in an attempt to break the shackles on his body, just like the ninth Fist Shadow that was suppressed by the spirit array, no matter how he struggled, he could not change the final result.
“Senior… Please spare my life, Senior. I didn’t know that Gu Xi was your disciple. If I had known his identity, I wouldn’t have dared to lay a finger on him!”
At this moment, Zhan Wushuang no longer cared about his so-called face. He kept on pleading loudly, afraid that Yun Zhiyi would kill him here.
On the other side, the onlookers had already fallen into a dead silence. Even though they were far away, they did not even dare to breathe.
They did not know the true strength of the old man, but judging from the current situation, the old man’s cultivation must be at least in the late stage of the Great Saint. He could so easily suppress Zhan Wushuang, an intermediate Great Saint. He might even have touched the terrifying level of the Absolute Saint!
At the thought of this, everyone present could not help but shudder.
The Absolute Saint sounded very similar to the Great Saint, but the difference in strength between the two could be said to be worlds apart! If the Great Saint was like a mantis waving a claw, then the Absolute Saint was a strong adult elephant!
The difference between the two was significant!
“There’s no need to beg for mercy. If I hadn’t arrived in time, I’m afraid that this disciple of mine would have already died in your hands. You also… You almost made me break my promise.”
Yun Zhiyi shook his head slowly. His withered branch-like hand made a grabbing motion in the direction of Zhan Wushuang. In the next moment, Zhan Wushuang appeared in front of him.
“What a terrifying use of spatial power. Elder Yun’s strength seems to have improved again,” seeing this scene, Gu Xi could not help but exclaim in a low voice.
With regards to the use of spatial power, even if Gu Xi had the void essence, it could be said that he could not catch up to Elder Yun. It could be seen how superb Elder Yun’s means were.
“Indeed, it’s a blessing in disguise. After recovering from the injury in the Void Tunnel, his strength has improved, but it’s more appropriate to call it a recovery,” Song Qingluan explained with a smile.
Hearing this, Gu Xi could not help but take a deep breath.
When Elder Yun first appeared, he used the System to analyze Elder Yun’s current cultivation realm – early Absolute Saint stage! He had thought that Elder Yun was lucky enough to make a breakthrough while he was recuperating, but he did not expect that he had actually recovered the Absolute Saint stage!
Breakthrough and recovery were completely different!
Now that Elder Yun had recovered to the state of an Absolute Saint, it meant that he was at least an Absolute Saint 10,000 years ago, and that was the most conservative estimate!
“It’s better not to be surprised at a time like this.”
Just as Gu Xi was immersed in shock, Yun Zhiyi’s voice came slowly, pulling him back to reality. “How do you want to deal with this guy?”
Yun Zhiyi pointed at Zhan Wushuang, who was bound and could not move at all. It was as if he would immediately raise his blade and kill him if Gu Xi gave the order.
“Little Friend Gu, Little Friend Gu, I was too snobbish earlier. It’s all my fault. I hope you won’t hold it against me and hold it against me!” Zhan Wushuang said with a mournful face. In front of absolute strength, even if he was the Zhan Clan’s Master, he could only beg for mercy.
Seeing him like this, the Zhan Clan’s disciples in the distance lowered their heads. However, no one laughed at them. Everyone knew that if their Sect Master or Clan Master were here, they would end up in an even more miserable state than Zhan Wushuang!
