Chapter 165: Victory! Number One in Yan City!
Even the Lord of Yan City, who had always been mysterious and elusive, personally appeared to challenge Lin Yan. Upon hearing this, many warriors in Yan City couldn't help but shiver slightly, surprised by the Lord's actions. At the same time, they began to speculate about Lin Yan's status. Perhaps Lin Yan had inadvertently entered the Formation Realm?
The warriors of Yan City pondered this speculation, based mainly on their understanding of the Lord of Yan City. After all, he was a righteous man who never bullied the weak. Even when he was in the Great Circle of the Dan Yuan Realm, he would practice with other experts in Yan City. But as he advanced to the Formation Realm, these practice sessions became less frequent. Therefore, the reason the Lord challenged Lin Yan today had only one explanation: Lin Yan was a worthy opponent deserving of his full effort. And what other status could that opponent have but the Formation Realm?
Thinking of this, the crowd took a deep breath. They never expected that the inexperienced youth of that day could now compete with the strongest experts in Yan City. Simultaneously, many warriors in Yan City were eager for this great battle. Living in such a place, they rarely had the chance to witness warriors in the Great Circle of the Dan Yuan Realm fight. A confrontation between possible experts of the Formation Realm like this was a unique opportunity they wouldn't miss. Thus, many warriors hurried towards the Lin family residence.
Meanwhile, at the Lin family residence, upon learning that the visitor was the Lord of Yan City, Xia Wanjin and the others were also surprised. Unlike newcomers like the Lin family, the Wanjin Company had been here for a long time, and Xia Wanjin had a history with the Lord of Yan City. Naturally, he understood what kind of person the Lord was.
"So, it's the Lord of Yan City?" "I really didn't expect him to actively challenge us." "Lin Yan, my friend, you truly have great influence."
After a series of astonished exclamations, Xia Wanjin and the others couldn't help but sigh.
"Is the Lord of Yan City Zi Yue's father?" Lin Yan asked Xia Wanjin. Xia Wanjin nodded towards Lin Yan. "Exactly." "This man possesses extremely powerful strength. Years ago, he entered the Formation Realm and became the true number one in Yan City." "But he is a righteous person, and since you have a relationship with Zi Yue, his visit today is purely to practice with you."
Lin Yan pondered this for a moment. "I see. In that case, I accept this challenge. I've just entered the Formation Realm, and I indeed need an opponent to test my strength. The Lord of Yan City is the best choice."
With a slight smile, Lin Yan stepped outside. There, he saw the imposing man outside the Lin family gate and bowed respectfully.
"If the Lord of Yan City invites me, how could I dare refuse?"
The Lord of Yan City laughed heartily upon hearing this, his gaze full of admiration. "A true hero from a young age! In that case, let's begin!"
With these words, he drew a long gray sword called the Broken Jade Sword. This sword was a spiritual treasure that the Lord often used. In the past years, before becoming the number one in Yan City, he had defeated many powerful warriors with this sword. Therefore, seeing the Lord draw this treasure, the warriors of Yan City behind him were shocked. It seemed the Lord was taking Lin Yan seriously.
Meanwhile, Lin Yan remained calm. With a smile, he opened his hands, and a green-blue fire appeared. With a simple gesture, the fire transformed into a flaming sword, emitting scorching flames.
Bang!
The two streams of energy collided instantly. A thunderous roar echoed, and sharp sword energy filled the air. The warriors of Yan City watched in awe.
"Is this the power of a Formation Realm expert?" "It's truly terrifying!" "I didn't expect Lin Yan to have actually entered the Formation Realm, as we thought." "What extraordinary talent!"
The warriors of Yan City were astonished. Behind them, the Lord of Yan City also let out a sigh of admiration. "Truly incredible!"
He then attacked again with full force. A white light appeared, forming a great jade palm that lunged at Lin Yan.
"Great Jade Palm!"
Lin Yan didn't flinch. With a fist, he launched a counterattack.
"Fire Lotus Sea Destruction!"
A massive demon lotus appeared above his head, followed by a torrent of black water. The Lord of Yan City struggled to resist but couldn't avoid the attack. Lin Yan, flying with energy wings, moved behind the Lord and struck with a flame-covered staff. The Lord of Yan City, in his disordered state, realized he couldn't dodge Lin Yan's attack. What else could he do but resist with all his might? But when he felt the terrifying heat of Lin Yan's staff, the Lord of Yan City realized he wasn't sure if he could withstand it.
"Burning Jade Sword Technique!"
Not daring to underestimate Lin Yan, the Lord used his most powerful technique. A sharp sword appeared, cutting forcefully and emitting a formidable aura. Meanwhile, Lin Yan smiled. With a swift move, he unleashed a wave of blue flames. The Lord of Yan City was engulfed by the wave of flames. As the warriors of Yan City watched in amazement, the area before them turned into a complete disaster.
When they finally saw the Lord of Yan City, he was in a pitiful state. Everyone was stunned. They looked at Lin Yan again, this time with deep admiration. At that moment, everyone knew. From this day on, the title of number one in Yan City was going to change.
