Chapter 172 We Have Plenty of Opportunities for Revenge
On the mountaintop, Xiao Potian was seen meditating cross-legged.
However, to Zhou Xianzong's surprise, he didn't see Luo Le'er, Xing Yueyue, or anyone else, not even a shadow of them.
Where the hell is this person?
Why is there only Xiao Potian and a few extras?
Even if Luo Le'er and Xing Yueyue are away, surely the people from Qingyang Sect and Xingchen Sect are here.
As a result, we didn't see a single one.
What the hell is going on?
Zhou Xianzong was stunned.
But now that the die is cast, and Xiao Potian has already shown up, he has no choice but to follow the plot.
How can you be called a major villain if you don't maximize your hatred level?
As Zhou Chao and his group set off, those who had approached also turned their gazes toward them.
Everyone was slightly alarmed. Could it be that the Zhou Dynasty was going to directly seize it by force?
However, this is understandable, since many people would choose to do this if they were without a place.
"Those guys probably won't be able to hold out this time."
"Yes, many people thought they were easy targets because they were outnumbered, but they turned out to be tough guys and made many people suffer."
"Even though they are quite strong, they are still too weak in front of the Zhou Dynasty."
Everyone seemed to have already foreseen the outcome, and no one had any confidence in Xiao Potian and the others.
"You have half an incense stick's time to pack your things and get out of here."
Several assassins stood in mid-air on the desolate mountain, shouting down to Xiao Potian and the others.
They were being quite polite; if it were anyone else, they probably wouldn't have even given a warning and would have just attacked.
It's important to understand that this is a world where strength reigns supreme; in a world of the strong, there is no place for the weak.
Upon hearing the sound, Xiao Potian awoke from his cultivation.
His pupils opened, and two beams of light suddenly shot out from his eyes.
It's easy to see that his strength has improved again in such a short time.
"We occupied this mountain first, so if anyone should be leaving, it should be you."
Xiao Potian sat on the ground without moving an inch, speaking in a flippant tone.
He defeated three groups of people to secure his position, so how could he possibly give it up so easily now?
"You're really asking for trouble. Since you won't listen to reason, then today I'll just have to make sure you die here."
"One of the assassins said in a cold voice."
He stepped down, his body radiating spiritual energy that caused the sand and gravel on the ground to turn to dust.
The others also took action, forming a pincer movement to seal off the barren mountain.
"Haha... What are you? You dare to dream of killing me? You trash don't even have the right to be my enemy."
Xiao Potian remained calm and slowly stood up from the ground, glancing at the few assassins.
His current cultivation level has reached the second level of the Celestial Realm.
Coupled with having previously repelled three groups of people, Xiao Potian's confidence soared.
They believed that these so-called geniuses of great religions and nations were nothing more than paper tigers.
"Brother Xiao, they are from the Zhou Dynasty. Let's preserve our strength and avoid their sharp edge for now."
At this moment, a young man carrying a sharp sword on his back and dressed in a white robe came to Xiao Potian's side.
Upon hearing that they were from the Zhou Dynasty, the others immediately lost their confidence.
"What? People from the Zhou Dynasty?"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Potian became even more energized.
His desire for revenge against Zhou Xianzong has been brewing for quite some time.
Now that we've encountered people from the Zhou Dynasty, there's even less chance we'll let them go.
Upon hearing this, the young man assumed that Xiao Potian was afraid and immediately nodded.
"Indeed, these people are Zhou Dynasty warriors, and the markings on that warship are also Zhou Dynasty markings. It's impossible for the Zhou Dynasty not to send people when the ruins are opened."
“Brother Ye, since you are from the Zhou Dynasty, wouldn’t that be even better? Zhou Xianzong wiped out your entire Ye family. Your father and your brother both died at his hands. How can we swallow such deep hatred? Today, let’s join forces and kill Zhou Xianzong right here.”
Xiao Potian spoke with murderous intent and unwavering resolve.
He couldn't wait a moment longer.
The young man beside him was none other than Ye Jian, the peerless genius of the Ye family of Yincheng.
“Brother Xiao, with our small force, we are no match for them. If we start a war now, we will only face certain death. We can wait until we enter the ruins and then find an opportunity to kill Zhou Xianzong.”
Compared to Xiao Potian, Ye Jian was noticeably calmer.
Even though he was burdened with a blood feud and hated Zhou Xianzong to the bone, and couldn't wait to seek revenge on Zhou Xianzong right now.
But he knew that if he took action, the consequence would be certain death.
With only him remaining in the entire Ye family, Ye Jian knew he absolutely could not afford to make a mistake.
Otherwise, if he dies, there will be no one left to avenge the Ye family.
"Potian, Ye Jian is right. Taking action now would be too disadvantageous for you. A moment of patience will bring peace, and taking a step back will open up a vast sky. You must keep your composure."
The old man with the jade pendant's voice also rang in Xiao Potian's ears.
Click!
Xiao Potian clenched his fists, his heart filled with resentment.
But after being persuaded by the two, he finally calmed down and gritted his teeth.
“Let’s go. We’ll settle the score with him once we’re inside the ruins.”
"good."
Ye Jian readily agreed, and without any hesitation, he got up and headed down the mountain.
Everyone was somewhat surprised by Xiao Potian and the others' decisiveness.
"That's really strange. These kids were so arrogant before, never giving anyone face, but this time they slunk away like that."
"What's so strange about that? They're from the Zhou Dynasty. How dare they challenge the Zhou Dynasty?"
"That's true. You know, the one leading this team is none other than Crown Prince Zhou Xianzong of the Zhou Dynasty!"
"Oh, isn't this Xiao Potian? Who do we have here? You piece of trash dare to come to the ruins? What a joke! You probably won't even get a sip of soup. Why don't you submit to me and serve me faithfully, and I'll reward you with some opportunities."
Standing atop the warship, Zhou Xianzong looked down at Xiao Potian and mocked him mercilessly.
Upon hearing this, Xiao Potian suddenly raised his head and stared intently at Zhou Xianzong.
"No need."
"Haha, it seems you, this piece of trash, have some self-awareness. You're afraid of holding me back. You can't even protect a mere barren mountain, so how could you possibly protect Le'er? I advise you to get as far away as possible. Today, I, the Crown Prince, am in a good mood and will not bother to lay a hand on you."
Zhou Xianzong sneered and launched into a barrage of verbal attacks, drawing the ire of the enemy to the maximum.
As expected, Xiao Potian's neck turned red, and an astonishing killing intent emanated from him, as if he wanted to slap Zhou Xianzong to death on the spot.
"Brother Xiao, stay calm. He's trying to provoke you. Don't fall for it. Once we're inside the ruins, we'll have plenty of opportunities to get revenge."
Ye Jian held onto Xiao Potian's arm tightly, fearing that he might suddenly decide to attack.
"call……"
Xiao Potian exhaled a long breath, calmed himself down, and remained unmoved.
"He really is a spineless coward."
Zhou Xianzong gave a cold, sarcastic laugh, then looked at Ye Jian and spoke.
"You must be that genius from the Ye family. You were lucky last time you weren't with the Ye family and managed to survive. But it doesn't matter anyway. With your kind of ugly and deformed people, this is all you'll ever be."
Ye Jian's face immediately darkened.
The destruction of the Ye family is a pain he can never erase from his heart.
Now, however, someone has ripped open his wound and rubbed salt into it, causing him to gasp in pain.
But he understood that he had to be patient and could not afford to lose sight of the bigger picture for the sake of small gains.
