Chapter 624 Cruelly Crushing Xie Nian, Feng Shui Grand Array! [1st Update]
Cheng Yuan hadn't originally planned to come out.
However, the area around the Martial Arts Alliance is indeed quite chaotic, with many fierce-looking ancient martial arts practitioners loitering around.
Robberies are common, and deaths and injuries are frequent during struggles.
The Martial Arts Alliance merely provides a place for ancient martial artists without family influence to live, unlike the Judicial Hall, which truly sacrifices and dedicates itself to the ancient martial arts world.
Such ordinary fights are common in the ancient martial arts world, and the Martial Arts Alliance doesn't usually get involved.
But Ying Zijin is different.
Cheng Yuan had finally gotten a junior sister, so naturally he had to protect her.
So he outwardly let Cheng Jin out, while he secretly followed behind.
Unexpectedly, his following them actually led him to encounter someone who wanted to cause trouble.
Xie Nian is arrogant and has a history of abducting men in the street.
He also fought several life-or-death arenas in the Martial Arts Alliance.
Cheng Yuan recognized him at a glance.
He had disliked Xie Nian for a long time.
But because Xie Huanran was standing behind Xie Nian, there was really nothing they could do.
But once you've crossed Ying Zijin, it won't be so easy to let her go.
Cheng Yuan's ancient martial arts cultivation is at the level of 350 years, far surpassing Xie Nian's status as a half-step ancient martial arts grandmaster.
Her face was swollen from Cheng Yuan's slap, and a metallic taste rose in her throat.
"I am Xie Nian!" Xie Nian was both shocked and furious. "You dare to hit me? Don't you want to live?"
She struggled, but couldn't break free. She kicked her legs desperately and screamed angrily, "I'll have my ancestor kill you!"
Xie Nian had never suffered such a humiliation.
She's always the one manipulating others like this.
Especially since there were quite a few people watching, including the two male guards she wanted to play with.
Where does this leave her with her face?!
“Fine, let him come.” Cheng Yuan still held Xie Nian and glanced at him indifferently. “Back then, Xie Huanran destroyed the Liu family because no one in the Liu family could threaten him. Apart from the Judicial Hall, no one was willing to throw their lives away to help the Liu family.”
“But ten years have passed, and my cultivation has greatly improved. If Xie Huanran wants to kill me now, it won’t be easy.”
Xie Nian laughed out loud: "Who do you think you are? My ancestor could kill you with ease."
Just as she finished speaking, several voices rang out simultaneously.
"Godfather!"
"Alliance Leader!"
The martial arts alliance's guards followed and knelt down in unison before Cheng Yuan.
When Cheng Jin ran back, she was taken aback to see Xie Nian being held in Cheng Yuan's hand.
Xie Nian's gaze froze instantly, and he blurted out, "You...you are the leader of the Martial Arts Alliance?"
Why is the leader of the Martial Arts Alliance involved with Ying Zijing?
Are you crazy?!
And she only said a few words.
She said even more to Lin Qingjia, but why didn't Cheng Yuan come out?
"Yes, it's me." Cheng Yuan narrowed his eyes, exuding a strong sense of pressure. "Didn't your ancestors tell you not to go against me?"
Xie Nian's expression finally changed.
Just before Xie Huanran went into seclusion, he personally told her not to touch Lin Qingjia, because Cheng Yuan treated Lin Qingjia as his daughter-in-law.
But what is Ying Zijin's relationship with the Martial Arts Alliance?
Could it be that Cheng Yuan wants Cheng Jin to have two geniuses at the same time?
Xie Nian didn't bow his head at all, and laughed sarcastically: "Alliance Leader Cheng really has a good idea. I wonder if the young alliance leader can bear this blessing."
"Or you could ask Lin Qingjia if she's willing to share a husband with Ying Zijin?"
Upon hearing this, Cheng Yuan's eyes instantly turned sinister.
He raised his hand and slapped him again: "You're asking for it!"
This slap was imbued with internal force, making it even more devastating than the previous one.
Xie Nian was so badly beaten that he vomited blood, and his internal organs were injured.
Cheng Yuan didn't even give Xie Nian a chance to struggle.
He released her hand, sealed her acupoints, and used his internal energy to hold her suspended in mid-air.
"Smack!"
Then, a slap sent Xie Nian's face crooked.
Those around were stunned to see Xie Nian get slapped by Cheng Yuan.
Cheng Jin was also startled.
He and Lin Qingjia admire each other, that's true, but would he dare to have any feelings for Ying Zijin?
Isn't this going to ride roughshod over his godfather?
Cheng Jin watched the show from the sidelines.
After slapping Xie Nian more than a dozen times, Cheng Yuan stopped and then grabbed Xie Nian by the throat, saying, "Apologize to my master... Miss Ying!"
Xie Nian opened his mouth, and as soon as he opened it, he spat out a mouthful of blood.
She was practically bursting with anger: "I won't—"
Before he could finish speaking, Cheng Yuan slapped him again: "Did you hear me? Apologize!"
"Fine...fine." Under duress, Xie Nian had no choice but to give in.
She knelt down before the girl in humiliation: "I'm sorry!"
Ying Zijing stood with one hand in her pocket, her gaze indifferent.
Completely ignored.
This attitude caused Xie Nian's emotions to completely explode.
But her injuries were too severe, and she was unable to utter another word before fainting.
The two guards who came with her were stunned.
"What are you standing there for?" Cheng Yuan withdrew his hand, saying calmly, "Hurry up and carry your young lady back to find an ancient doctor to treat her."
"If it gets any later, and she suffers any long-term effects, can you afford to take responsibility?"
The two guards shuddered, immediately stepped forward, carefully lifted Xie Nian up, and scurried away in a disheveled state.
The onlookers dispersed.
But within an hour, the news that Xie Nian had angered the leader of the Martial Arts Alliance and was beaten up would spread throughout the ancient martial arts world.
“Junior sister, Xie Nian won’t be able to move for at least a month.” Cheng Yuan turned his head. “Junior sister, please bear with it for now. Once my cultivation level improves, or once I find our master, I’ll kill that old bastard Xie Huanran first.”
Without Xie Huanran, how could Xie Nian, with his cultivation as a half-step ancient martial arts master, possibly dominate the ancient martial arts world?
"Before my master left, he left me some ancient martial arts manuals." Ying Zijin handed a book to Cheng Yuan. "Senior brother, take a look when you have time. They might be useful."
"You're too kind, Junior Sister." Cheng Yuan was flattered. "It should be me who gives it to you. Come again tomorrow, and I'll take you to see my private treasure vault."
"I've memorized all the moves my master taught me, but alas, it's a pity this kid can't learn them either."
Cheng Jin remained silent.
He thought to himself, this is not his problem, it is clearly Cheng Yuan's problem.
She can't teach him herself, so she blames him.
"No need," Ying Zijin politely declined. "I don't need it yet, Senior Brother. I'll be going now. Thank you for today."
Cheng Yuan hesitated for a moment, then said, "Junior sister, I'll go with you. Where are you going?"
"Hall of Justice."
Cheng Yuan escorted Ying Zijing all the way back to the Hall of Justice before returning to the Martial Arts Alliance.
In the study, he opened the book that Ying Zijin had given him and took a look.
Cheng Yuan hadn't held out much hope, but the more he looked, the brighter his eyes became.
He also got stuck at a bottleneck for a while, unable to make any progress.
However, some of the cultivation methods in this book were truly enlightening for him.
Clearly, Feng Xiu hadn't taught him this part.
Too.
Who doesn't like a smart and pretty girl?
After memorizing the moves from the book, Cheng Yuan went to the back mountain to practice.
**
On the other side.
The Xie family.
The Xie family head was shocked to see that Xie Nian had been carried back.
If anything happens to Xie Nian, they're all finished.
"Quick! Quickly, summon the ancient physician!" Patriarch Xie cried out in a panic. "Where is she? Something's happened to Niannian!"
All the traditional healers in the Xie family rushed over to help save Xie Nian.
Xie Nian woke up an hour later.
Her face was deathly pale, and her fingers were trembling.
Besides the fact that the injuries were indeed severe, it was also because the insults were too great.
"Niannian, who hurt you like this?" The Xie family head slammed his fist on the table. "Tell us, and we'll go and get justice for you."
Xie Nian gritted her teeth: "It's Cheng Yuan!"
Upon hearing this name, the Xie family head was startled, but his imposing manner had already diminished: "The leader of the Martial Arts Alliance?!"
"Seeking justice? Hmph, our ancestor is already in seclusion." Xie Nian's voice was gloomy. "Besides our ancestor, who else in the family can beat that old bastard Cheng Yuan?"
Her nails dug into her palms: "No, I should say, who would go up against that old bastard Cheng Yuan for my sake?"
Even Xie Huanran wouldn't deliberately provoke Cheng Yuan.
Xie Huanran is indeed very talented, because his ancestors who were younger than him have all passed away, while he is still alive.
Below Xie Huanran, the highest cultivation level of the Xie family's ancestors was just over three hundred years.
He is weaker than Cheng Yuan.
She was indeed deeply favored by Xie Huanran, but the other elders of the Xie family would not risk their lives for her sake.
She had no choice but to swallow her anger.
Of course, Cheng Yuan didn't dare to kill her.
If he kills her, Xie Huanran will definitely slaughter the Martial Arts Alliance to avenge her.
Cheng Yuan couldn't afford to take that risk.
It's just trash and waste.
Xie Nian scoffed.
She will get back all the humiliation she suffers today one day.
Xie Nian spat out another mouthful of blood, his eyes becoming even more sinister.
Three months later, Xie Huanran will emerge from seclusion, and his cultivation level will surely improve once again.
At that time, the world of ancient martial arts will belong to the Xie family!

Hall of Justice.
The council of elders in the Judicial Hall consists of five elders.
The Fifth Elder led the guards to the Fan family, while the remaining four elders continued to discuss important matters.
"You're back." Fu Yunshen stood up. "From now on, in the ancient martial arts world, don't act alone. I'll be with you."
The news of Xie Nian being beaten spread even faster than Ying Zijin returned.
“Sir, you also have to serve the people.” Ying Zijing raised an eyebrow. “Those people are important too.”
Fu Yunshen is a high-ranking official in the Judicial Hall and also the Chief Executive Officer of the IBI.
He has his sights set on criminal forces all over the world.
"You're important too." Fu Yunshen smiled. "I need to protect you."
He pulled Ying Zijin to sit down, then turned his head and saw the other four elders staring straight at him.
Fu Yunshen looked nonchalant, his peach blossom eyes crinkling: "Old man, why are you looking at me like that?"
"Well done, kid." The elder finally spoke after holding back for a long time, "So you've managed to get your hands on the number one genius in the ancient medical world. Impressive, impressive. The others will be furious when they find out."
How many people's dreams must have been shattered?
He had heard the gossip that the line of men wanting to marry Ying Zijing could stretch to the desert.
"Not bad." Fu Yunshen patted Ying Zijin's head. "I got to where I am because of my looks, so don't even think about it. I'm good-looking."
Grand Elder: "???"
What the heck?
"Well, Miss Ying," the Second Elder rubbed his hands together, unable to hold back any longer, "Do you know any other girls? Could you introduce me to a few? I don't need anyone as outstanding as you, as long as they're female."
Ying Zijing slowly raised her eyes: "Hmm?"
"Go away, Second Elder, you really have that serious illness." The First Elder kicked the Second Elder and laughed and scolded, "Your son is already seventy years old, which is considered young among ancient martial artists."
"But among ordinary people, he's already a grandfather. How can he prey on young girls? Have he no shame?"
The second elder snorted, "Isn't it because I don't know when I'll die? I just want to hold my grandson."
After those words were spoken, everyone fell silent.
indeed.
Once you join the Judicial Hall, you never know when you might die.
“The elders don’t need to be so pessimistic.” Ying Zijing asked Yunshan to help her bring over the medicine she had refined and distribute it. “There will always be a way.”
“At least we old folks are still here; we can’t let you young people sacrifice yourselves.” The elder waved his hand. “Let fate decide.”
The Second Elder accepted the medicine: "Thank you, Miss Ying."
The phone beeped at that moment.
Ying Zijing glanced down at her phone.
I sent her a picture in May.
It's on a mountain.
But upon closer inspection, it turns out to be more than just a mountain; there are other things as well.
Ying Zijing's expression changed slightly.
She immediately got up and went outside, then made a phone call: "Fifth Month, where are you?"
"Ah?" Fifth Month's voice came through the wind, "I'm on Songshan Mountain in the capital. Today, fortune tellers are having a gathering, and we've invited a master. Oh right, it's the eldest elder of the Xie family in the ancient martial arts world. He's very good at fortune telling."
“I was invited, so I came to take a look.”
Ying Zijing's voice was calm: "Fifth Month, do you know what kind of feng shui formation is in the picture you sent me?"
The grand sacrificial ceremony.
They forcibly took away the luck of others and transferred it to the entire Xie family.
Targeting specific groups.
This is even more insidious than borrowing luck.
Later, Emperor Qin Shi Huang lost the horse of the ancient martial arts patriarch.
Cheng Yuan realized how much of a bargain he had gotten: What the hell?
He chose to bang his head against the wall :)
