Getting Stronger By Fighting

Chapter 1051 - 1049: Narrow Encounter with an Old Foe

If it’s the Fire Qilin saying this, Wang Zhan seems not to believe him.

But now the one speaking is the Sword Spirit, so Wang Zhan naturally needs to consider carefully.

Generally, the Fire Qilin seems to have already seen what Wang Zhan is thinking. He smiles faintly and shakes his head before speaking directly: "I’ve been with you for quite a long time, completely treating you as my partner, so naturally, I wouldn’t deceive you lightly. If it weren’t true, I wouldn’t have told you about it."

"So the safest way now is for me to absorb whatever power is in this bead quickly. I believe it won’t take long, and I’ll be able to transform into human form, with my strength improving to some extent. By then, I will surely be able to offer you some assistance."

Wang Zhan slightly narrowed his eyes, hesitated for a moment, then finally nodded and continued speaking: "If that’s the case, then let’s do everything according to your intentions. We’ll stay here to protect you, but you must quickly enhance your strength, as I really don’t want to keep waiting..."

Thinking about the scars on Zuo Linglong’s body, Wang Zhan’s face turned much gloomier.

Beside him, the Fire Qilin nodded, speaking in a calm tone: "Don’t worry, there’s still the residual power of the Vermilion Bird Venerable here, which greatly benefits me. By absorbing this bead here, I believe I will surely receive the Vermilion Bird Venerable’s protection, fully developing the power within the bead, and even improving my strength to some extent. I have enough confidence to transform into human form!"

Wang Zhan nodded and continued speaking: "Alright, don’t waste any more time. We’ll wander around this area a bit, see if there’s anything interesting, after all, we need something to do, or we won’t know how to pass the time."

The strength of the three people before him is extremely formidable. Although there’s a big gap between Zhao Feiyu and Wang Zhan, compared to the people inside the Sky Pavilion, he’s still a top expert among them, and even Li Du is far inferior to him...

In an instant, the Fire Qilin transformed into a streak of light, swiftly heading toward the mountain peak.

Wang Zhan’s gaze fell on Xiang Tian beside him, then Xu Xu spoke: "Is there anything interesting nearby? Or are there any ruins here? We can’t waste time here for nothing, and I don’t want to foolishly wait for him here, who knows when he’ll come out?"

However, Wang Zhan didn’t intend to go to the Returning Cloud Pavilion. Since the Sword Spirit and the Fire Qilin have already said this, Wang Zhan naturally needs to be responsible for the people around him, as taking risks could possibly leave them stuck in the Returning Cloud Pavilion forever.

Now the Demon God is gradually emerging, and even the four Venerables have sacrificed themselves because of the Demon God, indicating that the Star War Battlefield is gradually becoming unsettled, and many experts are appearing in it, so Wang Zhan naturally needs to handle things properly.

Moreover, he needs to consider things carefully before acting.

One side, the Sword Spirit hesitated for a moment, then frowned and spoke: "Returning Cloud Pavilion is just nearby, so their people should have explored all the nearby ruins, and I haven’t felt any energy fluctuations around here, so there should be no ruins left, right?"

"We might as well stay under this mountain peak and quietly protect the Fire Qilin..."

Looking at his expression, Wang Zhan shook his head helplessly, "Since when did you become so close with the Fire Qilin?"

"Besides, that guy’s strength is evident, plus he has the bead nearby, and there’s also the cultivation inferno here. Even if we tried to approach it, it would be extremely difficult, so he naturally won’t have any problems inside."

The Sword Spirit immediately lowered his head, speaking softly: "What’s my relationship with him? If it weren’t for your reason, I wouldn’t know about his existence now, let alone have any entanglement with him..."

Actually, Wang Zhan was just joking. He knows the Sword Spirit’s mind is always on him, and the Sword Spirit is extremely introverted, seemingly indifferent to everything.

If it weren’t for Wang Zhan being here, it’s likely the Sword Spirit wouldn’t pay attention to the people inside the Sky Pavilion.

Wang Zhan also didn’t continue to joke with the Sword Spirit, then sat cross-legged, smiling as he spoke: "Alright, I won’t joke with you anymore, just now was casual talk in passing, under the sky, after your first master left you, believe me, I’m the one who understands you the best, naturally knowing what’s in your mind."

The Sword Spirit nodded but didn’t say much.

Just as the group prepared to rest, they heard footsteps from afar, and soon after, a group of men wearing starry sky robes gradually arrived.

The base color of the starry sky robe is azure blue, and there are stars on the robe, making it appear quite elegant, but the expressions on everyone’s faces carried a trace of coldness, and the man standing at the front glanced at Wang Zhan and the others, with his face slightly changing color as he spoke word by word: "Did you just hear that strange noise?"

They are all disciples of the Returning Cloud Pavilion, and they came out this time because they heard some unusual sounds just now, intending to gather intelligence.

After all, they don’t know what happened to the Vermilion Bird Venerable, but they are well aware that any strange phenomena between Heaven and Earth could indicate the appearance of ruins. If that’s the case, they need to quickly confirm the position of the ruins and prevent others from taking the opportunity.

But Wang Zhan and his group didn’t respond to them, even Wang Zhan had closed his eyes.

The man who spoke earlier slightly frowned, with his face looking extremely unpleasant, as he spoke again: "Are you all deaf?"

"Didn’t hear me?"

Before Wang Zhan could speak, Zhao Feiyu nearby had already stood up, glanced at the few people in front of him, clenched his fist, and quickly charged toward them.

And those people quickly stood back, and the man who spoke earlier coldly said: "Such a brat, you really don’t know the heights and depths of Heaven and Earth, we all come from the Returning Cloud Pavilion! Someone dares to attack people from the Returning Cloud Pavilion in this area!"

In an instant, they formed their stances, clearly ready to fight.

Meanwhile, Zhao Feiyu stood to the side, full of disdain, sniffed coldly, and beckoned with his fingers to the others, with a contemptuous expression as he spoke: "Just a bunch of insignificant characters, really thinking of yourselves as some formidable figures?"

"Since you’re so arrogant, master will teach you a lesson today, letting you know the heights of Heaven and Earth!"

Just as Zhao Feiyu prepared to strike, Wang Zhan, who had been resting his eyes, gradually stood up, patted Zhao Feiyu’s shoulder, pulling him behind, and stared at the people in front, noticing their countenances, then asking word by word: "Are you from the Returning Cloud Pavilion?"

Instantly, Wang Zhan’s face seemed much gloomier.

Now, Wang Zhan plans to visit the Returning Cloud Pavilion to exact vengeance for Zuo Linglong, but unexpectedly, he encounters the Returning Cloud Pavilion’s people right here, truly a narrow path for enemies.

The group looked at each other and hadn’t noticed Wang Zhan’s expression, possibly assuming he asked more questions just because he recognized the Returning Cloud Pavilion’s name, thinking he might be secretly frightened.

And the man at the front glanced at Wang Zhan, speaking with disdain: "Since you’ve learned our identity, we’re not here to waste time. Quickly tell us, did you hear where that strange noise came from? If you don’t tell us the truth, don’t blame us for being discourteous!"

Seeing their expression, Zhao Feiyu beside Wang Zhan had already clenched his fist, even his breath became much more rapid.

If Wang Zhan wasn’t beside him, he would have acted long ago.

Though Zhao Feiyu wasn’t clear about Wang Zhan’s intentions, he saw Wang Zhan’s complexion wasn’t right, clearly in a state of anger.

The people in front are likely to suffer soon.

But they are unaware of their situation.

Seeing Wang Zhan still not speaking to them, the man previously conversing with Wang Zhan clenched his fist, spoke again: "You fool, did you hear us?! I advise you, best to obediently answer our questions, if angering us, don’t blame me..."

Before finishing his words, Wang Zhan already wielded a glowing fork.

That is Poseidon’s Trident.

If one reveals Poseidon’s Trident in the sea domain, naturally, many would fear, even dread.

But this isn’t the sea domain, and the Returning Cloud Pavilion people don’t even know what Poseidon’s Trident is.

One person held his belly and commented: "Look at the item he’s holding, someone using a three-pronged fork as a weapon? Truly comical..."
