Chapter 170: Meeting the Enemy, Extremely Furious!

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

When they saw Shen Ran leading everyone over, these cultivators’ faces were filled with bitterness.

They looked at each other and smiled bitterly.

All of them knew that it would be difficult for them to obtain the natural treasures in the valley now that Shen Ran was here.

At the same time, they regretted not breaking the array formation earlier and obtaining the natural treasures.

Even if they obtained one, they would not get anything when facing Shen Ran now.

Although they were helpless, they made way for Shen Ran. They could only smile apologetically.

Shen Ran looked at the array formation and narrowed his eyes.

“Your Highness, let us break this array formation.”

A disciple of the Empyrean Sword Sect spoke.

However, as soon as they finished speaking, laughter sounded in the sky.

“It seems that the natural treasures have yet to be taken away.”

“My opportunity has finally come.”

Two voices sounded and two figures landed at the same time.

The two of them were dressed in brocade robes and emitted extremely terrifying aura fluctuations.

The moment the two of them landed, the expressions of the surrounding cultivators changed again.

This was because these two people were also top geniuses, Zhou Ziran of the Zhou family and Xu Lingfeng of the Xu family.

Behind them were naturally the disciples of their families.

As soon as the two of them landed, they noticed Shen Ran.

The moment they saw Shen Ran, the smiles on their faces instantly dissipated, and the two of them subconsciously approached each other.

Zhou Ziran and Shen Ran already had a grudge, so there was naturally no need to mention the atmosphere when they met.

Although Xu Lingfeng usually remained neutral, coming with Zhou Ziran was enough to prove everything.

In addition, they were facing natural treasures now. Who would be willing to give up?

In an instant, the atmosphere outside the valley became tense.

It was also because of this tense atmosphere that the surrounding cultivators looked like they were watching a good show as they retreated.

“Although we can’t obtain natural treasures, it doesn’t seem bad to be able to enjoy a huge battle.”

“With the three top geniuses gathered, the upcoming battle will definitely be very exciting.”

“If they really start a war, I think Shen Ran has the upper hand. After all, he became famous in the Fallen Phoenix Hill and has long become the number one prodigy in the Southern Region in the hearts of countless people.”

“I don’t think so. Although Shen Ran had the upper hand the last time, no one knows how much Zhou Ziran and Xu Lingfeng have improved.”

“That’s right. In terms of cultivation alone, Zhou Ziran and Xu Lingfeng are at the upper hand. The two of them are both at the eighth level of the Illumination Realm. On the other hand, Shen Ran is only at the sixth level of the Illumination Realm.”

“…”

For a moment, before the battle began, the surrounding people had already begun to discuss the outcome of the battle.

Some supported Shen Ran, and naturally, some supported Xu Lingfeng and Zhou Ziran.

While everyone was discussing, Zhou Ziran’s gaze was also on Shen Ran.

In addition to the humiliation in the Fallen Phoenix Hill mystic realm, he had a grudge against Shen Ran.

Now, he had Xu Lingfeng by his side.

He told Xu Lingfeng via voice transmission, “Xu Lingfeng, let’s join forces. I don’t want the natural treasures in the valley. I only want Shen Ran’s head.”

With that, Xu Lingfeng nodded without hesitation.

After receiving Xu Lingfeng’s reply, Zhou Ziran couldn’t help but look confident.

No matter how strong Shen Ran is, can he defeat me and Xu Lingfeng when we join forces?

At the thought of this, his confidence exploded.

When he looked at Shen Ran again, his gaze flickered with coldness. “Shen Ran, if you know what’s good for you, get lost immediately. Otherwise, the East Sea Mystic Realm will be your burial place.”

As soon as he finished speaking, before Shen Ran could speak, a disciple from the Empyrean Sword Sect made a disdainful sound.

“How shameless. Have you forgotten the last time you were beaten up by His Highness in the Fallen Phoenix Hill mystic realm?”

“Haha, he probably thinks that he has improved a lot in the past two months and can defeat His Highness.”

“How ridiculous. In His Highness’s eyes, you’re just a clown. Do you really think you can leap through the dragon gate after a few months?”

As soon as the disciples of the Empyrean Sword Sect finished speaking, the Zhou family disciples also shouted.

“What’s there to be smug about? As the saying goes, a good man doesn’t talk about his past bravery. Your Highness will definitely die here this time.”

“That’s right! Our young master is at the eighth level of the Illumination Realm. He’s countless times stronger than when he was in the Fallen Phoenix Hill Mystic Realm. On the other hand, Shen Ran is only at the sixth level of the Illumination Realm. Who does he think he is?”

“If you know what’s good for you, follow Young Master’s instructions and get out immediately. Otherwise, you’ll all die here.”

“…”

For a moment, before the leaders of both sides started fighting, their underlings were already cursing each other.

“Did I hear wrongly? A good man didn’t mention his past bravery. I remember that at the Fallen Phoenix Hill Mystic Realm, the young master you mentioned was pressed to the ground by His Highness!”

“If anyone wants to get lost, it’s you guys. A bunch of defeated opponents!”

The cursing grew louder and louder. Even the Zhou family disciples could not hold it in anymore.

After all, Zhou Ziran’s wound had been opened. No one could stand it.

Some Zhou family disciples had already rushed towards the Empyrean Sword Sect disciples.

The disciples of the Empyrean Sword Sect also rushed over.

At this point, the battle between the disciples of both sides instantly erupted.

On the other hand, the Xu family disciples stood rooted to the ground and did not move.

After all, they did not know what Xu Lingfeng was thinking.

The battle between the disciples of both sides began, and the scene became abnormally chaotic.

The collision of various killing moves kept sounding in the horizon.

However, both sides tacitly opened up the battlefield and did not involve Shen Ran, Zhou Ziran, and the others.

As the battle erupted, the three geniuses standing in place were also looking at each other.

Neither of them said anything.

However, as the chaos around him became louder and louder, coupled with his anger towards Shen Ran, Zhou Zhiran was naturally the first to be impatient.

A monstrous aura fluctuation erupted from Zhou Ziran’s body, and wisps of light bloomed from his entire body.

A monstrous aura spread out. He formed hand seals and charged towards Shen Ran.

Almost at the same time, Xu Lingfeng activated the aura of the eighth level of the Illumination Realm and attacked Shen Ran.

The moment the two of them attacked at the same time, the Xu family disciples saw Xu Lingfeng attack and also rushed into the crowd of disciples of the Empyrean Sword Sect.

At this point, the chaotic battle had thoroughly begun.
