Everyone in the academy hated this name. If Pan Yu hadn't stirred up the mess of Xia Xiao's possession of the devil, Hu Bugui might not have died so early.
At that time, Xia Xiao could have been saved. Whether it was Xu Yun's sacrifice or the forces behind Xia Xiao, they could have helped him stabilize his condition after he had just been possessed by the devil, and then wait for Qing Xunzi to come back and find a way to control the devil energy or strip it away. Even now, Xia Xiao completely controlled the power of the devil, which was taught by Qing Xunzi. But Pan Yu's persistent attack indirectly led to all the tragedies.
Pan Yu has always been the mortal enemy of the Demonic Path. He disguised himself very well, so after that incident, even if the academy was very angry, they did not point it out to him, but only held him accountable and targeted him. The academy had many means and was relatively kind to him, but now, Pan Yu was hiding in this remote place to absorb the energy of living beings, so it was clear that everything in the past was his disguise.
Fury ignited, Guan Zhongyi gritted his teeth, and immediately the heaven responded, pinching Pan Yu in his palm, making him unable to move. Guan Zhongyi's eyebrows were a little strained, because with his strength, he could not threaten Pan Yu's life at all. Even if the latter just exerted force, he could break free. Even so, Guan Zhongyi pinched him, and the disdain in his tone suppressed the resentment.
"After so many years of pretending, this is your true self, right?"
"clever."
"Answer truthfully. Where does the vitality on this magic pattern sacrificial array come from?"
"You broke the talisman formation in the East China Sea, but you didn't know that there is also a talisman formation in Yinxun. In addition to Yinxun, there are three other places. Guess where they are?"
He clenched his fists, and the invisible big hand transformed from his vital energy squeezed Guan Zhongyi tighter. He was indeed injured, and a few traces of blood flowed from the corners of his mouth.
"You killed people from four cities?"
"Strictly speaking, there are more than four cities, and there are also creatures in the surrounding areas. Adding up... more than 20 million, nearly 30 million!"
This number was indeed shocking, and made Guan Zhongyi look extremely cold.
"As a strong man in the academy, you should know that the spirit and flesh of living beings are irreversible. Once they are sucked out by me using the sacrificial array, there is no hope of resurrection. Currently, only you and the lucky person in Yinxun know this news. What do you think will happen if you tell the world?"
Pan Yu seemed to be provoking, but more of a show-off, he was showing off his great achievements. The uglier Guan Zhongyi's cold expression was, the more he liked it and the more excited he was. This was what he wanted, that kind of hatred, but unable to kill him, made him feel secretly happy, as if he had accomplished something great, and the world could only envy him, only he had supreme authority, no one could provoke him.
"Aren't you afraid of retribution?"
"Ha ha ha ha--"
Pan Yu seemed to have heard a joke, and caught Guan Zhongyi's punch in a wild laugh. He was very close to him, and came in front of him, fumigating Guan Zhongyi with the stench of the devil, and at the same time retorted viciously:
"Retribution is something that only the weak are afraid of. I am about to break through and reach the top of the cloud. But the top of the cloud is not the end. When I go up and break through the shackles of the Great Wilderness, who will have the ability to repay me? By then, even if the consciousness transformed by the Great Wilderness comes, I will not be afraid! Because even she is no match for me!"
Pan Yu's smile was extremely sinister, which made Guan Zhongyi extremely annoyed. He flipped his hand, broke free from Pan Yu's palm, and blasted towards him again. The devilish energy was pierced, and the space was shattered. This was a punch full of anger. When Guan Zhongyi gritted his teeth, it represented the people who had lost their lives in the four cities, as well as all the practitioners and warriors who had lost their lives in the war.
This punch went straight to Pan Yu's side face, causing him to fall to the ground. However, with the latter's current strength, he immediately entered the silent world to avoid being affected by the talisman formation.
Seeing Pan Yu disappear, Guan Zhongyi used his energy to chase him, and his main body stayed where it was, put his hands together, raised them above his head, and then rushed towards the ground array. When the space was broken, a beam of energy went straight down, trying to destroy it. Although this would mean that the 20 million people would not survive, at least... the power of the demons could not be increased.
Guan Zhongyi's eyes were full of hostility, but although his vitality was like thunder, he could not destroy the talisman array. The vitality of the living beings on the talisman array continued to condense and cling to the array, causing violent ripples at this time, but it was difficult to break it. The space behind him was torn apart, and Guan Zhongyi turned around immediately.
"Disappointed?"
Pan Yu threw Guan Zhongyi's clone back, and the blurry figure immediately entered his body. After recovering some of his vitality, Guan Zhongyi's face was still full of resentment. He felt that it was a bit tricky, but he had to kill this demon that killed the people and not let it enter the world again. Pan Yu's face was relaxed, even a little contemptuous, which made Guan Zhongyi shake off the evil spirit with both hands and shouted angrily:
"court death!"
Guan Zhongyi and the surrounding sky-supporting energy rushed forward together, surrounding Pan Yu and leaving him with no way to escape.
After a fierce battle, the North Sea, which was always covered with floating ice, began to ripple like never before, and even stirred up layers of waves, which went from the shore to the sea. As the waves grew bigger, the battle in the sky became more intense. But from time to time, Guan Zhongyi's actions made Pan Yu laugh out loud.
"You can't destroy this talisman array with your vital energy, because it will be repelled by the evil energy in it."
"There is nothing I cannot destroy!"
When the extremely proud Guan Zhongyi frowned, his body suddenly turned into thousands, and his punches came out all at once, hitting the space around Pan Yu, causing him to be constrained by the squeezed space.
Then, Guan Zhongyi raised his arm high above his head and swung it down with countless vitality to cover Pan Yu. This sharp fighting method and speed made the arrogant old man lose face and scream a few times. But this did not achieve the effect that Guan Zhongyi wanted. The almost crazy idea in his mind still needed some preparation to realize it.
Before completing that task, Guan Zhongyi asked:
"There is no vitality in these living beings' auras, so what's the use of using them?"
Pan Yu rushed out of the Yuan Qi cover and kept a certain distance. It seemed that Guan Zhongyi asked him about his expertise. He raised his slightly embarrassed face and sneered:
"The so-called college teachers are nothing but this. They say you are knowledgeable, but it seems you only know some old sayings. It is useless to recite those rotten books with your head shaking. You don't even know these simple truths."
"We study the way of educating people, teach students in accordance with their aptitude, and also love astronomy, geography, and social culture. Unlike you, you use the father and son as an excuse, and you are as ignorant of human nature as beasts, just to cover up the fact that you are demons. In comparison, you are still more useless!"
Guan Zhongyi never liked to swallow his anger, especially when he didn't have to care about his face, so he behaved extremely fiercely. Pan Yu didn't react much. No matter how he was scolded, he didn't care. Instead, he just smiled and then proudly talked about the relationship between the life energy and the vital energy.
No matter what Guan Zhongyi said, he just didn't know the relationship between these living spirits and their vital energy. Therefore, Pan Yu was a little excited at this time. After all, teaching others was what he loved to do. He was even more pleased to crush the college teachers in their academic fields, secretly calling it a pleasure.
