Chapter 426, Come as You Wish

“Lord Heii Lian!”
Upon seeing this figure, many of the guards had reverence flashing in their eyes, and then they all respectfully bowed to this figure.
Those who were observing through the cracks of the thatched house, when they saw this figure, also had shock surging in their eyes.
Hei Lian, the strongest expert in Jade Cloud City, was a genuine Martial King! Moreover, it was said that Hei Lian had once escaped from a Mid Stage Martial King!
“Benefactor…” At the thatched house behind, the joy that had just surged in Qiao Yun and the old man’s eyes got buried with Hei Lian’s arrival.
“Lord Hei.” Seeing Hei Lian, Advisor Wu felt greatly reassured, and he also bowed to the latter. Although he was the City Lord’s Advisor, in terms of status, he was absolutely inferior to the latter.
“It’s this brat!” Advisor Wu pointed at Qin Yichen.
Upon hearing this, Hei Lian’s gaze also looked towards the young man surrounded by guards. When he saw him, his brows could not help but furrow, because he could not feel the slightest fluctuation of Yuan Energy from this young man.
There were only two possibilities: either this young man was not a Martial Artist at all, or his cultivation was higher than his own!
Hei Lian did not believe in either of these two theories. However, there must be more to this kid than meets the eye.
He owed Advisor Wu a favour, that was why he had come here. Advisor Wu was an extremely shrewd man. How could he possibly use an owned favour to deal with a kid who did not pose a threat?
As for the second point, that was simply impossible. His own cultivation had already reached the Peak of the Early Stage Martial King Realm. He was just one step away from entering the Mid Stage Martial King Realm. How old was this youngster? Even if he had cultivated from the womb, his cultivation would not be higher than his own.
“Could it be that he has a special Technique to conceal his aura?” Hei Lian frowned, then withdrew his gaze and said calmly to Advisor Wu: “Wu Fan, after this, I no longer owe you anything.”
“Yes, of course… I hope Lord Hei goes easy on him. Just cripple him, and I will make him wish he were dead!” Advisor Wu nodded repeatedly, then stared at Qin Yichen with cold light flashing in his eyes, icily saying.
Hearing his words, Hei Lian frowned, but he did not say much more, just nodded.
“Boy, will you do it yourself, or do you want me to help you?” Hei Lian glanced at Qin Yichen and said.
“Come as you wish…” Qin Yichen shrugged his shoulders, looking completely unconcerned.
“Are you seeking death?” Hearing him being so arrogant, Hei Lian’s eyes also flashed with anger. In Jade Cloud City, even the City Lord would show respect when seeing him. When has he ever been disregarded like this?
“Lord Hei, don’t kill him…” Seeing the change in Hei Lian’s expression, Advisor Wu called out in a low voice. He did not want the person who had crippled his Son to die so easily.
*Boom!* Hei Lian showed no intention of acknowledging Advisor Wu’s words. He took a step forward, and a powerful aura burst forth. Several Spirit Realm guards standing close retreated several steps, only stabilizing their forms meters away.
Under the pressure of his aura, everyone on this street felt difficulty breathing, and this was only the residual waves of the aura released by Hei Lian!
“Boy, I’ll deal with you properly later!”
Behind Hei Lian, Advisor Wu looked at Qin Yichen who stood in place as if unable to move under the pressure of this aura, thinking viciously in his heart.
“I give you a chance, finish yourself.” Hei Lian looked at the young man in front of him. For some reason, he had a vague sense of unease in his heart.
In others’ eyes, this young man seemed frightened to the point of being unable to move, but he clearly sensed that his aura pressure could not suppress the latter at all. In fact, it could not even enter the space within a meter around that young man!
“If this is all you’re capable of, you’d better leave now.” And the response to Hei Lian was a clear and even somewhat disdainful remark.
Hearing these words, whether it was the guards or some onlookers, they were all extremely shocked in their hearts. They never expected this young man to dare to speak to Lord Heii Lian like this.
“Damn it, is he seeking death?” Advisor Wu’s face darkened. In his view, Qin Yichen knew he could not escape his fate and was deliberately provoking Hei Lian, wanting a quick end.
“Presumptuous!” Indeed, Hei Lian was angered by Qin Yichen’s arrogant words. He shouted angrily, waved his arm, and a stream of Yuan Energy howled forth.
*Boom!* Under this stream of Yuan Energy, the thatched houses on both sides collapsed. The solid street was forcibly gouged out, leaving a deep pit.
“Lord Hei Lian has made his move!”
Many Spirit Realm guards looked at this stream of Yuan Energy that could easily kill them with shock, their eyes gleaming. Hei Lian did not make a move very often. Thus, seeing this up close was a blessing to them
“Hmm?” And just as they were excited about Hei Lian’s attack, they were shocked to discover that when this stream of Yuan Energy surged to Qin Yichen’s front, it seemed to be blocked by an invisible wall.
“Spiritual Energy? Spiritual Energy that can block a Martial King’s attack? Could this young man be a Human Grade Alchemy Master?”
Seeing this scene, many guards exclaimed in shock.
Hei Lian’s expression also became completely gloomy as the Yuan Energy stream was blocked.
At this moment, he was no longer angered by this young man’s arrogance, but because of Advisor Wu. Using the favour he owed him, the Advisor had actually made him offend a Human Grade Alchemy Master!
There were no Human Grade Alchemy Masters in Jade Cloud City. The last time a Human Grade Alchemy Master passed through this place, even the City Lord treated him as an honoured guest, serving him well, not daring to offend him in the slightest.
And now, because of the Advisor, who only knew how to scheme, he had offended such a great figure!
*Swoosh!* Before Hei Lian could regret his actions, his pupils suddenly contracted because he found that the young man’s figure suddenly disappeared from his sight.
*Bang!* Before everyone could react, a crisp sound rang out, and then, in everyone’s shocked gaze, their nearly invincible existence in their hearts… Hei Lian was actually sent flying.
*Thud!* Then, under their shocked gazes, Hei Lian’s figure fell heavily to the ground, just like the guard captain before. Only his slightly undulating chest proved that he was still alive.
At this moment, at the place where Hei Lian had previously stood, a slender figure stood tall. His slightly raised fist proved that Hei Lian had been sent flying by this fist that was not even as big as a pot.
For a time, this space was filled with a deadly silence. Almost everyone was wide-eyed, looking incredulously at the young man who was only eighteen or nineteen years old.
