Chapter 264 Chapter 264 Although my brother is fierce, stupid, and has no mouth...

Countless words got stuck in my throat.

Zhan Can, who was thrown to the ground by Zhan Tianyu, just looked at everything in front of him in a daze.

He didn't quite understand why it turned out like this.

In the battles between the two brothers and Zhan Tianyu, it was obvious that they had the upper hand every time.

When he was old enough to understand, his brother also told him about some of the things that Zhan Ying had done with Zhan Tianyu. Later, whenever Zhan Tianyu had to return to the Zhan family to pay homage to his mother who had passed away at the ancestral grave, he always had the upper hand in all interactions with Zhan Tianyu.

In addition, although the Zhan family is not the Jianfeng of the Xuanyun Sect, it is also a large family with the same history as Jianfeng. It also occupies a mountain. He and his brother both practice here. They can be said to be the future heirs of the Zhan family. Zhan Tianyu has obviously lost his qualifications and has reached Danfeng. With his talent, he has become a serious alchemy cultivator.

So it is very common that the elders in the family always favor them.

Or maybe it was because when there were more conflicts in the past, it was when his brother was a child, and when there are more conflicts now, it was when he was a child. Zhan Tianyu was facing two younger children. His reputation was not good because he had damaged the Zhan family treasures in the past, so he was not worthy of the trust of those adults. The elders and peak masters who would handle these matters without any grudges were not willing to meddle in the affairs of other peaks or some big families.

So much so that even now, Zhan Can still didn't react to what happened.

He instinctively stretched out his hand and looked at the head of the Zhan family who was standing among the elders: "Daddy."

The head of the Zhan family looked like a middle-aged man with a majestic aura. He was wearing a gray robe with countless talismans and seals made of silk threads made from the hair of special monsters. He frowned at the moment and looked at the whimpering cub hiding in the arms of his eldest son.

The little fellow kept talking non-stop, and took out a sound transmission note from his pocket, ready to complain.

The head of the Zhan family had a headache and he didn't have time to care about Zhan Can who was sitting on the ground. He spoke quickly.

"My friend—"

Although the head of the Zhan family has ignored Zhan Tianyu for many years, and most of the time he disliked Zhan Tianyu when he returned to the Zhan family to pay homage, the head of the Zhan family did not want to cause any trouble.

There is nothing else. Danfeng is not a mountain that the Zhan family needs to pay attention to. The main reason is that the head of the Zhan family has a shadow on Cheng Hanqiu.

When Cheng Hanqiu was at his peak, he had clashed with him and hammered him into the mountains many times. Even after his Taoism collapsed, his tendons and veins were destroyed, and his cultivation regressed to the early Nascent Soul stage, the head of the Zhan family tried his best not to provoke him, so it was so easy for Zhan Tianyu to go to Danfeng that year.

If this gets out of hand again, who knows what else that unusual guy might do.

It's not a good thing anyway.

But he didn't call out. Little Yan Ning was protected by the second senior brother. She started to complain, and the sound transmission note had already flown out.

Gu Yin made a special sound transmission talisman that you can’t stop even with your hands.

Then the cub, with a cute face that looked innocent and bullied, poked out its little head and stared at them.

It's like I'm afraid they'll do something bad again.

At this point, the Zhan family head had no choice but to proceed with the matter.

"Friend Yan Ning, they are brothers. They just get along normally. It's normal for them to have occasional misunderstandings and conflicts."

The head of the Zhan family tried to suppress the matter by using a fight between brothers.

He can see it clearly.

Just like when Cheng Hanqiu rushed out from Danfeng.

As long as the little cub believes it, Cheng Hanqiu won't make things difficult for him.

"That's true."

"It's been a while since we last saw the Zhan brothers. Are they about to start their training? It's not a big deal. We're all disciples of the same sect. We can just apologize to each other and that's it."

Seeing this, several elders and peak masters also looked over with a smile.

But he focused his attention on Zhan Can.

"You are not as steady as your brother. Even if we don't see each other often, he is still your elder brother after all."

This was a way to smooth things over. The issues on both sides were discussed and the matter ended with mutual apologies, but in reality, it was clearly still biased towards Zhan Tianyu.

After all, they had seen this little guy before. He had a firm heart for Taoism and meant what he said. He was ruthless even to Yu Feng, and would not slander others on such matters.

So what he said was basically the truth.

Now they are just giving face to the head of the Zhan family.

The people around were all smart and could naturally hear the meaning of these words. Zhan Can gritted his teeth and also understood what these words meant. Most people thought it was his problem and that he was not steady enough.

But--

Zhan Can wanted to say something, but he was used to being spoiled and had never experienced this before. For a moment, he didn't know how to refute.

I could only stand up sullenly and say yes, then come over here and bow to apologize.

Zhan Tianyu had never seen such a scene before.

Even if his senior brothers and master help him, this is usually not the case.

Not to mention that the master spends most of his time in Danfeng, living a life of drunkenness and dissipation. He is too lazy to deal with his own problems, so most of the problems in this regard are left to him to deal with on his own.

To be honest, in today's world of cultivating immortals, Taoism and cultivating the mind, Cheng Hanqiu, with his bad temper, is not a very qualified master.

But for Zhan Tianyu, it was enough.

He is very grateful.

But at this moment.

Zhan Tianyu just lowered his head and looked at the little cub in his arms.

The little cub was still not satisfied and kept pulling at his clothes. His pretty little face looked both well-behaved and aggrieved, and he was muttering in a low voice.

"Ningning has heard about it all. She's seen this kind of thing many times. If Ningning hadn't seen the whole thing today, none of you would have believed Ningning's Second Senior Brother."

It was indeed a group of elders and peak masters who wanted to let the matter go and smooth things over with each other.

The honest little cub covered in thorns keeps talking. He is so good at talking that we have to tear off this fig leaf from them and continue to stab them.

The little guy is always a master at being sarcastic.

He raised his head and looked at Zhan Tianyu again.

Then he muttered.

"Ningning, you can't just keep staring at me, right? Otherwise, you'll bully my second brother?"

A group of people, all of them were embarrassed.

At this moment, a talisman flew over from the horizon.

Without waiting for anyone to react.

The talisman paper began to burn, and that lazy and fierce voice was heard.

He seemed a little nonchalant: "Master Zhan, stay away from our disciples. Don't blame me for not telling you. Just handle things properly. Of course, you can bully me, the master of Danfeng, because I can't lift the sword anymore and I'm not threatening. But if my Ningning comes back and still says she was bullied, we may need to talk about it later."

The talisman paper burned to ashes and disappeared.

The cub wanted to keep talking, but Zhan Tianyu covered his mouth.

He finally realized what this seemingly well-behaved little guy was doing.

This is someone else's territory. You should at least hold yourself back. That's enough. Don't let people talk about you and make you lose face. Otherwise, you won't be able to maintain your pretense of morality.

And how come this little mouth can chatter so much?

And besides——

Zhan Tianyu looked at the little cub who was still whimpering even though he had covered its mouth.

Why is that?

In the past, Danfeng always seemed to be "unreasonable", and no matter what they said, they could feel justified. Even if Danfeng had the upper hand in some actions, there was always talk behind the scenes.

But today is different.

A group of elders and peak masters had pale faces, and they were all thinking about Yan Ning, a child with extremely great talent. After all, cherishing talent was more important than some social etiquette in the hearts of most elders and peak masters.

Finally, he simply looked at the head of the Zhan family.

"Master Zhan Feng should still pay more attention to family matters."

"Let's take a look at what happened in the past. People always say that Zhan Tianyu is a young man with no ambition, but it doesn't seem to be the case."

I have made a serious apology here.

Over there, Zhan Tianyu directly picked up little Yan Ning, stopped looking at the group of people, and turned away.

There was a hint of complexity on the gloomy nobleman's face.

He held the little thing in his arms and came all the way to an uninhabited area. He put the cub down and looked down at the little guy.

Yan Ning also raised her head at this moment, looking at Zhan Tianyu, her pretty little mouth pouting.

A baby voice.

"do what?"

Xiao Yan would rather remember what the second senior brother said before.

And holding hands is always reluctant.

Ningning is so amazing, it is his honor to hold hands with Ningning!

"you--"

Zhan Tianyu seemed to choke a little. He wanted to say something but didn't.

Then he watched the little guy puff out his chest and blink his eyes with a little pride.

"Do you also think Ningning is very amazing?"

He was so prescient.

He is awesome!

The cub's big eyes are sparkling.

This expression actually made Zhan Tianyu's complexity dissipate a lot.

I have somewhat returned to the feeling of being with the little guy before.

"How did you follow me out?"

"Ningning saw you, but Second Brother, why didn't you stay here and run out by yourself?"

"I was at Jianfeng because I had something to do. I sold the things I brought back from the mountain to exchange for suppressed spiritual energy... No, why do you care what I came out for?"

Zhan Tianyu stared at the little guy.

"Didn't you notice my attitude?"

Yan Ning looked at him, puffed up her cheeks, turned her head, and said something in a low voice.

His voice was so unclear that the words were stuck in his throat, and it was impossible to hear what he said. Zhan Tianyu subconsciously asked, "What?"

"I said—"

Little Yan Ning turned her head suddenly, her well-behaved little face puffed up slightly, as if she was holding her breath, and the little hedgehog covered with thorns pricked the other party hard.

"Ningning doesn't like you that much. Ningning only needs Daddy. The eldest senior brother is okay, the third senior sister is also okay, but the second senior brother is a bad guy——"

According to common sense.

This double-standard kid will totally ignore this kind of bad guy.

And as long as Zhan Tianyu dared to show up, his thorns would pierce Zhan Tianyu mercilessly.

Zhan Tianyu was just about to let out a roar and pick up the little rascal.

Then I heard the little rascal talking with puffed cheeks again.

"But Ningning knows what it feels like to not be trusted."

Xiao Yan Ning has experienced such moments countless times.

Whether it is intimidation or frame-up, let him take the blame.

In the so-called blood-related family, he was a complete outsider and would not be trusted by anyone at all. They just kept him firmly under their control.

So Xiao Yan Ning knew it very well.

That was a terrible feeling.

It's so unfair.

Xiao Yan Ning felt that he had found his father and his relatives, but Zhan Tianyu’s relatives were not like that.

Look at Zhan Tianyu’s expression - how many times has he been wronged?

Yan Ning didn't know.

But with him around, how could anyone wrong the people of Danfeng?

That's definitely not possible!

Ningning is so awesome!

What does it feel like to not be trusted...

Zhan Tianyu widened his eyes slightly.

To be honest, Zhan Tianyu has grown up to an extremely cruel heart. He is not a serious cultivator with a firm mind. He has just thought of countless ways to take revenge on Zhan Can.

He is grateful to his master and senior brothers, and protects Danfeng.

But there shouldn't be anything in this world that can shake his heart.

But at this moment, he was somewhat confused about his emotions——

And those black grape eyes were too clear, and the appearance was too deceptive. You couldn't actually tell the little guy's true nature from the outside. He lowered his eyes and continued to chatter.

"Although Second Brother is fierce and stupid, and seems to have no mouth, Ningning knows that Second Brother has done nothing wrong, but he must feel very wronged because no one believes him."

These words fell.

Zhan Tianyu felt like he was hit on the head again.

The young man squatted there, raised his hand to press his throbbing veins.

"What do you mean fierce, stupid and without a mouth?"

You don’t have to say these things - you little bastard.

The cub blinked and tilted its little head.

"Hmm? Such simple and easy to understand words, brother, don't you understand?"

Zhan Tianyu: ...

Sure enough, it’s still very infuriating.

He still doesn't like children.

Especially this little thing in front of me.

"Vicious, stupid, and..."

The little guy tried to explain.

"Okay, be quiet and stop talking! I understand."

Zhan Tianyu was almost jumping up and down in anger.

The cub took a step back.

Muttering: "If you can understand it, then you can understand it - why are you shouting so loudly? Ningning's ears are not broken."

Zhan Tianyu: ...

He said these words unnecessarily.

Zhan Tianyu stood up angrily.

He took two steps to the side.

Then he stopped and turned to look at the little cub standing there.

Little Yan Ning is a totally pretty little dumpling.

He looks very cute when he doesn't talk.

But when it comes to what they say, it's sometimes even more infuriating than the twisted logic of the evil cultivators, and you just can't come up with anything to refute it.

"Yan Ning."

Zhan Tianyu spoke.

Zhan Tianyu still had the same attitude, staring at the little thing.

"do what?"

The cub tilted its head.

"The lecture is about to begin."

"oh."

Xiao Yanning nodded, looked around, and determined the direction she was in.

It doesn't seem too late to go back——

"Yan Ning."

Seeing that the little guy had no intention of coming over, Zhan Tianyu spoke again.

"Um?"

Xiao Yan Ning looked at the hand extended by Zhan Tianyu.

"Hold hands!"

Zhan Tianyu gritted his teeth and spoke word by word, then walked over in two or three steps, bent down, and took the little cub's hand.

He just did it because they were all disciples of Danfeng.

He is his second senior brother, and there is no one else here, so he has to take responsibility.

Since he is the master's bloodline, he can take care of him a little more.

Zhan Tianyu was angry with himself and walked away angrily.

The little cub follows behind.

His speed was slow, completely different from before.

Yan Ning blinked her big eyes.

"Second Brother, if you want to thank Ningning, Ningning is listening."

"Quiet! I don't want to say anything!"

Zhan Tianyu didn't even turn his head.

Okay, then don’t tell me.

Xiao Yanning continued to follow.

This second brother is really bad-tempered. I don’t know why he is always so angry.

Wait for the two brothers to return.

The training has begun.

Zhan Tianyu first sent the cub to the door and listened to the sounds inside.

He spoke after a moment.

"Don't run around after the lecture. I'll come find you later."

"Okay."

Xiao Yan Ning nodded, waved to Zhan Tianyu, turned around and walked into the lecture room.

Zhan Tianyu looked for a moment before turning around and leaving.

In the lecture room, the elder in charge of the lecture was a smiling old man with a white beard.

The cultivator's surname was Jiang, and he was considered an elderly elder in the Xuanyun Sect. As there was no hope of a breakthrough, he did not choose to remain in seclusion. Instead, he smiled and explained the sword to many children who had just entered the sect.

Seeing the little cub come in, he looked over with a smile.

Although he always smiles, he is also considered the most strict elder in Jianfeng.

"Little Yan Ning, huh?"

"Hello, Elder."

The cub blinked and nodded at Elder Jiang.

Elder Jiang also smiled.

"Although I didn't see your situation directly that day, I have heard about it, and the news has spread throughout the Xuanyun Sect. With such good qualifications and character, you should set higher standards for yourself. Next time, you must arrive on time. Okay, it's okay. Go and take a seat."

Elder Jiang touched the little cub's head.

There is a gentle and kind power.

Elder Jiang was also amazed.

Most of these cubs have not yet entered the Dao, and there are only a few who are powerful enough to do so, including the young master of the demon clan, so few people here can see Xiao Yan Ning's cultivation level.

But Elder Jiang knew clearly that he had clearly entered the middle stage of the Dao. If he remembered correctly, he had just entered the Dao on the day of the test.

Such a speed of cultivation is really terrifying.

Xiao Yan Ning looked at Elder Jiang, nodded, ran over, and returned to her seat, but was stunned for a moment.

Next to his seat, the red-eyed young boy who was originally surrounded by the monsters was now looking up at him.

Xiao Yanning looked at the other person twice, walked around him, and sat down in the seat.

Cui Jiao didn't even look at him. When he heard the movement of the demon clan, he glanced over coldly and showed a cruel smile.

The demon race matures early, and their living environment is very different from that of the mortal world. Even the demon race that was born not long ago is not easy to get along with.

Their hands may have been stained with the blood of countless monsters, and because they have been educated like this since childhood, the personalities of the monsters are almost completely different from those of humans.

Elder Jiang first talked about some things about entering the Tao.

He saw that most of the cubs were still confused and had only a vague understanding.

Just smiled.

Along his beard.

"Everyone has their own destiny and their own path. It's okay if you don't understand it right away. You will gradually and naturally understand it. You should have also received the most basic mental methods distributed by the sect. We will explain those first. Once you have basically understood the first chapter, you should have already entered the path—"

Another hour passed, and there was only half an hour left until the end.

The group of cubs were dizzy and most of them were still unable to sense the existence of any spiritual energy.

Therefore, they couldn't help but look at Yan Ning, Cui Jiao, Yu Ming and the demon tribe in the lecture room.

Those little demons already have strong physiques, much stronger than other cubs, and their perception of demonic energy is also much stronger. It is estimated that they will attain enlightenment soon.

But these three cubs will only stay here once, and then they will go to other training rooms. They are also the only three who have entered the Tao here.

"In the next period of time, you should consolidate your thoughts and think carefully. As for those who have entered the Tao—"

Elder Jiang looked over and was also thinking.

"You can try to sense the spiritual energy around you. Although this spiritual energy will only be most effective when you use spiritual tools, you can also use some small spells."

Elder Jiang cannot teach other people, as they all need to learn according to their own directions.

Xiao Yanning was holding a pen. When she heard this, she tilted her head and thought about it, feeling it.

The young boy next to him finally leaned over at this time.

He held a blood-red flower in his hand, and his fox eyes were somewhat defiant.

"Look."

Yan Ning looked at him.

"I've used it plenty of times, so the head isn't there to fill up the height."

Cui Jiao stared at him.

"And I recognize you as my future rival."

Yan Ning: …

“Don’t stress too much.”

How much do you care about me? I can see that those words seemed to have hurt him quite deeply.

"Hmph, you better hurry up and catch up—"

Cui Jiao was stunned for a moment, then immediately reacted and snorted.

Over there, there was a cry of surprise from the place where the young disciples of Xuanyun Sect were gathered.

"Brother Yu Ming, you are so amazing!"

"You've just entered the Dao, and you've mastered it so quickly?"

The two turned their heads.

Seeing Yu Ming stretching out his hand, spiritual energy surrounded him, and the metal next to him changed with some difficulty under his manipulation.

Cui Jiao only glanced at it, then withdrew his gaze, leaned back, and commented indifferently, "Not even close."

Elder Jiang smiled and said, "That's good."

He had just seen the blood in Cui Jiao's hand.

Only little Yan Ning, the young cub who entered the Tao here, was still motionless.

Yu Ming looked at Yan Ning as if he had won back a point, as if to say - you are behind me now.

"I've already caught up with you even though you entered Dao earlier. Junior Brother Yan Ning, you better keep working hard."

"I don't know what you're chasing after. Are you just trying to comfort yourself with your own fantasy?"

Xiao Yanning opened her little mouth and kept talking without showing any mercy.

He felt the ice spiritual power around him.

Elder Jiang smiled and said, "You just haven't started yet. Try to use your 100% effort to activate your spiritual energy."

Ice Spiritual Roots—and he’s already in the middle stage of the Dao, so it must be quite spectacular.

Elder Jiang thought to himself.

According to a prediction, it can probably affect people within seven feet?

Yan Ning closed her eyes.

He felt the condensation of ice spiritual energy.

But it’s strange - is this spiritual energy a little too active?

Active to——

Yan Ning opened her hands, and a little bit of ice crystals appeared in the palm of her hands.

If he tried 100%...

Elder Jiang smiled.

No one knew that a loud thunder was rolling in the sky in the distance.

The Heavenly Dao roared in anger, swirling in the clouds: Fine, fine, you maggots that came in to destroy the world, and you still want to compete with the ancient immortal child I picked up!?

Let’s compare!

Look at what falling behind means! It just needs to activate its spiritual energy a little bit—

With a swish sound, in an instant - the ice crystals suddenly expanded.

The surrounding spiritual energy exploded instantly.

Elder Jiang, who was watching the show with a smile on his face and ready to clap his hands to encourage the cub, had his smile frozen on his face.
