Tang Yan looked at Leng Yuexi, who had taken the initiative to appear, with great excitement. His eyes flashed with a wicked light, and his face flushed with excitement.
Leng Yuexi looked at him calmly, "Don't disturb him."
Tang Yan was taken aback by Leng Yuexi's words, not expecting her to say something like that.
His cultivation level was higher than Leng Yuexi's. Leng Yuexi was in the early stage of Nascent Soul, while he was in the middle stage of Nascent Soul. Taking down Leng Yuexi would be a piece of cake.
"Heh, you still have the leisure to care about others? You should worry about yourself instead."
Then, he stroked his chin, his eyes filled with lewdness, staring at Leng Yuexi and scrutinizing her, completely letting himself go.
"Tsk tsk, not bad, not bad at all, what a charming beauty. Let's have some passionate lovemaking and go to Wushan together, so you can experience the ultimate pleasure of being in heaven and death."
Leng Yuexi frowned, her expression turning cold. "Are you looking for death?"
Tang Yan's eyes gleamed with even greater greed. He chuckled as he reached out to grab Leng Yuexi, intending to take her down first.
Leng Yuexi flicked out a silver needle with her right hand, aiming it straight at Tang Yan's brow.
Tang Yan didn't take it seriously, sneered, and shattered the silver needle with a flick of his outstretched hand.
"Little beauty, don't struggle. The more you resist, the more excited I get."
His hand continued to reach for Leng Yuexi, accompanied by his malicious laughter.
Leng Yuexi remained calm as she flicked out another silver needle.
Tang Yan scoffed and shattered it with another palm strike.
Leng Yuexi continued to move her fingers, and spiritual energy fluctuations appeared at the places where the silver needles had broken twice earlier.
The formation was completed before Tang Yan's palm struck.
Tang Yan was surprised to find that the surrounding air had suddenly become cold, and that seven icy swords were surrounding him.
He realized that he had fallen into a formation set up by the other side.
Tang Yan's expression became much more serious. Leng Yuexi's move made him wary. This woman was quite something; two inconspicuous little silver needles had formed a killing formation so quickly.
Leng Yuexi showed him no mercy, and with a light tap of her finger, she activated the Frost Sword Formation.
Seven icy-cold longswords attacked Tang Yan relentlessly.
Tang Yan snorted coldly, and with his right hand holding the longsword, he unleashed streaks of sword light, deflecting Leng Yuexi's attacks.
The two exchanged a few blows.
Tang Yan knew that Leng Yuexi was not so easy to deal with, and he was about to get serious, so he snorted coldly.
"You've got some skill. No wonder you were able to pass the Tower of Pride. Let me show you the Yin-Yang Sword Technique of my Joyful Union Sect."
Tang Yan then took out another sword, so he was now holding a long sword in his left hand as well.
Two-handed swords are relatively rare.
Tang Yan roared, his aura surging, his right hand sword emitting a dazzling red light, while his left hand sword emitted a dark black light.
He simultaneously unleashed a sword beam at Leng Yuexi with both hands.
The red light emitted from the right hand and the black light swung from the left hand converged in the air, merging into a dark red sword light.
This dark red sword light, composed of two sword energies, was significantly more powerful than when they were combined individually; it was not simply a matter of one plus one superposition.
The reason why Tang Yan was valued by the higher-ups of the Hehuan Sect was not only because he had the Silver aptitude, but also because of the Yin-Yang Sword Technique.
The Yin-Yang Sword Technique was originally a combined attack technique, performed by a man with masculine energy and a woman with feminine energy, to achieve a powerful effect of combining yin and yang.
However, Tang Yan was able to perform it all by himself. The coordination between two people is never as good as that between one person, which undoubtedly makes the sword technique even more powerful.
Tang Yan went to great lengths to cultivate this sword technique, harming women everywhere and using their yin energy to replenish his yang energy.
Because of his eagerness for quick success and his excessive absorption of yin energy, he now gives people a feeling of effeminate evil.
Tang Yan unleashed a dark red sword light that struck Leng Yuexi, the light containing immense energy.
Leng Yuexi remained calm, her hand seals shifting, transforming the seven longswords into forty-nine, instantly elevating the array's aura to a higher level.
With a flick of her finger, streaks of icy spirit swords shot towards the dark red sword light.
Tang Yan's Yin-Yang Sword Technique was not bad, but his opponent was Leng Yuexi, so how could he let him succeed?
Ding ding.
The sword light clashed with the formation, and the dark red sword light was blocked.
This result was somewhat unexpected for Tang Yan. He frowned and said:
"I never expected you to be so proficient in the art of formations, and even able to change formations on the spot. I really underestimated you. But you can't escape today."
Leng Yuexi had no interest in wasting words with him and took the initiative to attack.
The upgraded Frost Killing Array has significantly increased its combat power, leaving Tang Yan somewhat overwhelmed.
He was put at a disadvantage for a time.
Tang Yan felt increasingly uneasy as the fight progressed. Leng Yuexi was far stronger than he had imagined, and he feared that things might go wrong if things continued this way.
He then thought that he was there to kill, not to compete, so there was no need for him to fight her one-on-one.
Thinking of this, Tang Yan used a communication talisman to send instructions to the Hehuan Sect members who were still waiting outside.
Leng Yuexi also noticed Tang Yan's actions and frowned, realizing that he had accomplices.
She glanced in Xiao Fan's direction and decided to deal with Tang Yan first.
...
The Hehuan Sect members waiting outside the Yunji Mountains were getting anxious as time passed.
"Elder Ding, do you think something might have happened to Tang Yan and Elder Feng? They haven't returned for so long."
"It shouldn't be possible. Elder Feng is a Nascent Soul cultivator. How could he not handle a mere brat? The woman Tang Yan is looking for has a lower cultivation level than him, so it's unlikely that she'll have any problems either."
"That makes sense, but something just doesn't feel right. This is a serious matter and can't be taken lightly. Should I go and take a look?"
“You’re right. This matter concerns the succession of the Great Emperor, so it’s always good to be cautious. You might as well go and take a look.”
“We notified the sect beforehand, and I believe the sect leader will arrive soon. When that happens, we will hand Qin Feng and the others over to the sect leader for interrogation, which will be considered a great service to the sect.”
Just as Deng Tuo, who was in the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul realm, was about to leave, a communication talisman appeared in front of them.
Deng Tuo grabbed the communication talisman and frowned.
Upon seeing this, Ding Yun and Lin Jian of the Hehuan Sect realized something was wrong and quickly asked, "What happened?"
Deng Tuo explained, "It was sent by Tang Yan, saying that the situation had changed and asking us to go and provide support."
Ding Yun and Lin Jian frowned. "That shouldn't be the case. Could it be that someone is secretly protecting us?"
Deng Tuo also became anxious, "I can't worry about that now, let's go take a look."
Ding Yun glanced at Liu Zhihao and the other members of the Fengqing faction, "What about them?"
Lin Jian's eyes turned cold. "Let's go together."
Liu Zhihao and the others could only wear bitter expressions as they followed the Hehuan Sect members towards Tang Yan's direction.
...
Leng Yuexi's attacks grew increasingly fierce, her sword formation swirling rapidly as forty-nine icy spirit swords, gleaming coldly, relentlessly attacked Tang Yan.
Tang Yan quickly became unable to resist and his scalp began to tingle; he had already started to get injured.
He now deeply regrets coming to see Leng Yuexi alone.
Seeing Leng Yuexi's attacks intensify again, Tang Yan used another communication talisman, this time dropping the pretense and directly calling for help.
