I Fabricated the Techniques, but My Disciple Really Mastered Them?

Xu Yan was on high alert at that moment. The sudden appearance of the True King Heavenly Venerable, seemingly there to assist him, had ulterior motives—it was clear that he had come here deliberately to find Xu Yan.

Influenced by the Seductive Witch’s manipulation, he was acting on her orders.

What good could come from the Seductive Witch seeking him out?

Revenge?

“I don’t need your so-called protection. I can handle my matters with the Wan Family on my own, get out of here!”

Xu Yan said with a cold smile.

“My lord, the strength of the Wan Family…”

The True King Heavenly Venerable started to panic; their strength wasn’t among the strongest in the True King Heavenly Venerable ranks and they couldn’t hold off the elders of the Wan Family for much longer.

“Get out!”

Xu Yan’s gaze turned icy, and his Sword Intent surged out forcefully, forcing the True King to hastily retreat.

On the other side, the elders of the Wan Family were pushing back the obstructing True King Heavenly Venerable, who was obviously faltering and couldn’t hold out much longer. Yet Xu Yan was unwilling to seize the opportunity to escape, making these True King Heavenly Venerables extremely anxious.

Wan Tianlin furrowed his brow. The suddenly emerged True King Heavenly Venerables didn’t seem to be the forces behind Xu Yan but had another purpose?

With a flick of the Spirit Cicada Blade, he did not strike again but instead looked at Xu Yan with a serious expression and said, “Since you dare to challenge the Wan Family, do you dare to leave your name?”

“Why wouldn’t I?”

Xu Yan proudly smiled and said, “Listen well, I do not change my name or sit under any other, I am Sword God Xu Yan!”

“You are Xu Yan, the Xu Yan from Qinghua state?”

Wan Tianlin was taken aback.

“Do you know me? It appears that I, Xu Yan, have garnered some renown.”

Xu Yan was surprised.

He had made quite a reputation for himself in Qinghua state, especially in teaching the Sword Dao. Sword Cultivators throughout Qinghua state held him in the utmost reverence.

He hadn’t expected word to spread to the Nine Mountain Realm so quickly.

“Rumors say, Sword God Xu Yan, with a divine mastery of the Sword Dao, holds a revered status among Sword Dao Martial Artists in Qinghua state and also that Xu Yan commands the True Dragon…”

Wan Tianlin spoke in a stern tone.

Xu Yan raised his hand and a Golden Dragon roared forth, its Dragon Might vast and mighty.

Seeing this spectacle, Wan Tianlin was certain that this was indeed Qinghua state’s Xu Yan, who had been acclaimed as the foremost among the younger generation of Qinghua state.

There were numerous rumors about Xu Yan, mysterious and exaggerated, but in Nine Mountains Realm, it was generally believed that Qinghua state had suffered heavy losses and desperately needed to restore its dignity, hence the overstated rumors.

Today, upon meeting him, Wan Tianlin felt that the gossip was unnecessary!

Xu Yan’s mastery over the Sword Dao was divine, commanding the True Dragon; his strength was such that even his family’s elders couldn’t cope with him.

Nearly possessing the invincible strength as if, unless Immortal Heavenly Venerable emerged, he would remain undefeated.

“Brother Xu, I, Wan Tianlin, have not offended you to my recollection, and I sincerely engaged in trade with you; even if you consider my attitude somewhat arrogant, there was no need to target me specifically, or my Wan Family, right?

“We of the Wan Family have had no grievances with Brother Xu either, right?”

Wan Tianlin took a deep breath, his expression grave as he spoke.

The two family elders no longer made their moves. Now that they knew this young man was Qinghua state’s Xu Yan, if he truly harboured a grudge against the Wan Family, things were far from simple.

It might even involve conflicts between the powerful forces of Qinghua state and Nine Mountain Realm.

This level of conflict was not something those at their level could involve themselves in.

Xu Yan raised an eyebrow and responded with a sneer, “I, Xu Yan, have always avoided trouble, but I don’t fear it either; since I presented the Blood Heart Fruit for trade, it was obviously with sincere intentions. I don’t care about your attitude; just provide the treasure required for the trade.

“But you, Wan Tianlin, are rather sinister, daring even to send someone to assassinate me; am I, Xu Yan, supposed to not fight back?”

Wan Tianlin’s brow furrowed. It was true that one of his guards had attempted to kill Xu Yan.

But, the guard had acted in such a manner because he had been surrounded and attacked himself.

Since the other party was Xu Yan from Qinghua state, with no known enmity towards the Wan Family, why would he rashly attack him?

Could there be a misunderstanding here?

Wan Tianlin’s heart sank; he was sensing a conspiracy.

As a prodigy of the Wan Family, apart from his exceptional talent, he was not merely proud and not just a brute with brute strength and cultivation.

If Wan Tianlin was merely a cultivation talent, the Wan Family wouldn’t hold him in such high regard as their future leader.

Wan Tianlin took a deep breath, cupped his hands and said, “Brother Xu, after concluding our discussions at Yu Zhu Slope, I prepared to return to the Wan Family to gather the necessary items for our transaction.

“Alas, I was ambushed along the way…”

Now that he recognized something was amiss, Wan Tianlin immediately relayed the event that had happened that day.

“My guard also subsequently went back to Yu Zhu Slope to attack you, Brother Xu, fearing that there had been some misunderstanding, my Wan Family is willing to make compensation for this!”

Wan Tianlin stated gravely.

Xu Yan raised an eyebrow, suddenly turning his attention to those True King Heavenly Venerables controlled by the Seductive Witch. At that moment, he began to understand that there was a third-party force behind the scenes stirring up the conflict between him and the Wan Family!

“I left Yu Zhu Slope and was attacked by assassins attempting to snatch the Blood Heart Fruit; am I, Xu Yan, supposed to be beaten and not retaliate? So I returned to chase after you, meeting your guard on the way…”

Wan Tianlin’s expression turned ugly.

“Where is the transaction for the Blood Heart Fruit?”

At this moment, he suddenly realized something unusual.

“I protected it for you!”

“My guard has died, and I didn’t get the Blood Heart Fruit!”

At this moment, Wan Tianlin understood that someone was secretly manipulating everything.

Xu Yan was infuriated inside; was he really being played as a pawn?

His gaze turned frosty as he stared at those few True King Heavenly Venerables and coldly asked, “Is it you behind this? Or perhaps, someone behind you?”
