Chapter 261 - Chapter261

Liyang Palace, the Great Hall of Artifact Refining. Shen Yan was full of energy. The fanatical look in her eyes was very intense, and the smile on her face never diminished by half. She was happier than anyone else that Zhou Peng was not dead. Unconcealed surprise and excitement. Several female disciples in the hall also showed expressions of surprise. Now Zhou Peng is not only number one among the top hundred, but just now he has also become an honorary elder of the Thousand Machines Sect. His status has been greatly elevated. An honorary elder is someone who can only be obtained by those who have made outstanding contributions to the sect. Zhou Peng didn't make any particularly outstanding contributions. However, Long Xiaotian promoted him exceptionally to appease him. This was also the intention of the three supreme elders. Being "framed" by Han Kong and seriously injured, there should be some kind of expression. Long Xiaotian's move is to appease Zhou Peng and even more so to establish a great image among tens of thousands of disciples and be fair in rewards and punishments. As a member of Liyang Palace, they feel extremely proud because Zhou Peng is their senior brother and a disciple of Liyang Palace. Since Zhou Peng successfully won the title of number one among the top hundred, no one has said that Liyang Palace only knows how to refine artifacts and doesn't understand cultivation anymore. "Zhou Peng, you have suffered a lot in the past year." "As a teacher, I am not qualified to go to the Heavenly Outer World. Otherwise, I wouldn't have let you be framed. That old bastard Han Kong, I won't let him go." Shen Yan said faintly, emitting an air of anger. The tone really made Zhou Peng slightly moved. However, it was just a touch. Nothing more. "Thank you, Master, for your concern." Zhou Peng said movedly. Then, he took out a pot of already prepared (Golden Qi) from his space ring and said, "Master, this is the Golden Qi refined by the disciple himself. I don't know if it meets your requirements." "Golden Qi!" Shen Yan was secretly shocked, and her eyes slightly changed. In the past year, she has been constantly thinking about the Golden Qi. When news of Zhou Peng's disappearance spread from the Heavenly Outer World... Her heart sank again and again, and she was disappointed. Now that Zhou Peng has placed the Golden Qi in front of her, how can she not be excited? "Good, good, good." Shen Yan took the Golden Qi and excitedly said three 'good's in a row. "By the way, why haven't I seen Junior Sister Yan Xin and the others?" As soon as Zhou Peng returned to Liyang Palace, he felt strange. The Zhentian Bell had rung... For such a big event, it was impossible for Shen Yan not to bring Yan Xin and them by her side. He hadn't seen them for a year... Zhou Peng missed them very much. Since Yan Xin and Yan Bing went after Yi Qianhan, they haven't appeared... At first, Zhou Peng didn't think it was strange. Perhaps they were comforting Yi Qianhan. It's normal for girls to chat for a long time. But they didn't appear today, which made Zhou Peng feel very strange. "They went on a mission for me." Shen Yan said faintly, without any abnormal expression on her face. She was calm and composed. Then she said, "If they succeed, they will probably be back in half a month." "Oh." Zhou Peng nodded. He didn't look at Shen Yan... Instead, he looked at the female disciples around him. Their faces slightly changed. There was a flash of sudden realization in their eyes, along with a hint of amazement. His heart was shocked. Secretly thinking: "What happened?" Their expressions clearly showed that they didn't know that Yan Xin and them had gone on a mission at all. Only after Shen Yan said it did they show expressions of sudden realization. "Shen Yan must be lying to me?" Zhou Peng immediately came to a conclusion... But he didn't show it. "You are injured. Don't go down the mountain these days. Take good care of your injuries." Shen Yan put away the Golden Qi and then said. "Yes!" Zhou Peng responded. Then he said, "Then this disciple will take his leave first." "Go." Shen Yan waved her hand and looked at Zhou Peng with a very kind look in her eyes. Zhou Peng smiled slightly and withdrew from the great hall. After walking out of the Great Hall of Artifact Refining, Zhou Peng immediately walked towards Yan Xin's residence. He had an ominous feeling in his heart. Something must have happened to Yan Xin and them. And it happened a year ago. They haven't appeared since they left. They are most likely being held hostage. By whom? Wutian? Young Master Liushuanghan of Qiantian Sect? Now Liushuanghan is completely dispirited. The strength of the Qiantian Sect has been severely suppressed and has been disintegrated. He definitely won't hold Yan Xin hostage to threaten him. Young Master Wutian of the Ten Thousand Snake Valley? Zhou Peng's heart tightened and he quickened his pace. When he arrived at Yan Xin's residence, the flowers and plants were all withered. There was a thick layer of dust on the table. No one had lived there for a long time. It couldn't be as simple as Shen Yan said that they went on a mission. "Where are you?" Zhou Peng's eyes flashed with a fierce look. He clenched his fists tightly. The aura on his body emanated. It was solemn, cold, and full of violent killing intent. The forces of the Thousand Machines Sect are fragmented and complex. Zhou Peng's development is now in full swing. But compared to a year ago, he was just an ordinary disciple who only showed a powerful talent slightly. Who would be against him? Zhou Peng thought about the events before and after the ranking competition of the top hundred disciples last year several times. The disappearance of Yan Xin and them must be related to the disciple ranking competition. They were held hostage, but in the end, they didn't threaten Zhou Peng. The reason is... They lost the competition midway and didn't collide with Zhou Peng. It can't be the top ten disciples. It can't be Liushuanghan because even when he was forced into a desperate situation, he didn't threaten Zhou Peng. There is only one person! The young master of the Ten Thousand Snake Valley, Wutian. "Wutian!!!" Zhou Peng shouted heavily, extremely angry. "How dare you touch my woman? You really don't want to live anymore." Zhou Peng was secretly shocked. The killing intent on his body became even stronger. The moonlight was like silver, pouring down and illuminating the earth in a silvery white. In the Ten Thousand Snake Valley, the smell of blood was pungent, and the killing intent was pervasive. It was as solemn as hell. A person, with long messy hair and his whole body covered in black congealed blood clots. Under the moonlight, his eyes were as sharp as knife beams, like a god of slaughter. Beside him, a huge monster. Its mane was bristling like countless steel needles, flashing with a cold light. Extremely fierce. One person and one monster killed throughout the entire Ten Thousand Snake Valley. "Wutian, get out here." With a heavy shout, the sound was like a surging wave. The thick fog was instantly dispersed. Everything around was clearly visible. "Boom..." "Hiss, hiss..." Under the moonlight, a ninth-level green python suddenly raised its head. Spitting out a long snake tongue like a sharp arrow, it shot through and swept its huge tail hard. The strong wind rose everywhere, and the crushing power smashed down wildly. "Looking for death!" Zhou Peng spat out two words. Before his body moved, Mao Mao beside him instantly attacked. With a powerful claw, a wind blade several feet wide flashed like a half-moon. A few rays of cold light flickered in the air. Then, Mao Mao's thick body was like a tank in a charge, crashing into it. "Roar..." With bloodshot eyes wide open, it let out a powerful roar and pounced. Proclaiming its own strength. "Boom!" With a loud noise, blood rained down. The body of the ninth-level green python was broken into several sections and fell one by one. "Boom!" Mao Mao held a snake head and fell heavily. The ground under his feet cracked like a spider web. "Chirp, chirp..." Mao Mao grinned naively. Then he inserted a claw into the snake head and gave a hard pull. A crystal clear crystal nucleus was caught in his hand. He looked at Zhou Peng. After getting permission, he raised his head and swallowed it. "Click, click..." The crystal nucleus was actually chewed up by Mao Mao before being swallowed. "Abnormal." Zhou Peng laughed. After coming out of the Chilian Cave, Mao Mao's strength has advanced further. Now it is infinitely close to the great perfection of the tenth level. As soon as one ninth-level green python fell, ten more instantly took its place. Zhou Peng's expression changed in anger. With a wave of his hands, the power of breaking through space was exerted. With a loud shout, the qi on his body surged out. His body turned into an extremely fast night demon, shuttling back and forth. "Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!" Killing all in an instant! An instant kill! "Wutian, get out here..." Flying into the air, Zhou Peng roared heavily. Facing the approaching army of monsters, he immediately shouted, "Level seven frenzy..." "Thunderbolt Art." "Heavenly Thunder." "Fall..." "Boom..." The thick purple aura covered the sky and the earth, crashing down with the force of a thunderbolt. All the monsters within a hundred feet were completely wiped out, leaving everything charred. Experience points were skyrocketing, qi was skyrocketing, and survival value was skyrocketing. But at this moment, Zhou Peng didn't care about these at all. What he wanted was his woman. Yan Xin and Yan Bing, the twin sisters. Anything can be touched, but only his woman can't be touched. As a man, one should have the ability to protect women. "Still not coming out?" Zhou Peng's face changed ferociously. An even stronger aura billowed up. Flying into the air above the Ten Thousand Snake Abyss, he roared furiously. "Thunderbolt Art" crashed down. Thunder rumbled and the earth shook. There was chaos in the Ten Thousand Snake Abyss. "Zhou Peng..." "Don't push me too far!" There was a furious roar from the Ten Thousand Snake Abyss. A white snake, like a giant dragon swallowing clouds and spitting fog, flew out directly and stood parallel to Zhou Peng. There was boundless hatred in its golden pupils, and it was extremely angry. "You finally have the nerve to come out?" Zhou Peng said coldly. "Zhou Peng, what exactly do you mean? Do you think there is no one in my Ten Thousand Snake Valley?" Wutian roared angrily. After a year, his cultivation had greatly advanced and he had reached the second level of breaking through space. But he didn't expect that Zhou Peng's cultivation had actually reached the first level of breaking through space. In just one year, he had broken through from the virtual entry realm to the breaking through space realm. Is he still human? Although he was shocked in his heart, he was not afraid of Zhou Peng. With a great perfection physical body, even Liushuanghan couldn't do anything to him. What could Zhou Peng do? "Think there is no one in your Ten Thousand Snake Valley? Hahaha....." Zhou Peng laughed a few times. Then his voice suddenly lowered and he said ferociously, "Are you human? You are just a poor snake." "I'm too lazy to talk nonsense with you. Hand over Yan Xin and Yan Bing. I'll spare your life." "Them? Hahaha....." Wutian sneered coldly. His heart was filled with boundless anger. The cold light in his golden pupils flashed. Then he said, "I haven't had enough fun yet." "When I'm tired of playing with them, I'll train them into sex slaves and turn them into tools for the Ten Thousand Snake Clan to vent. Hahaha..." Wutian laughed arrogantly and extremely. He didn't notice at all that when he said this sentence, the temperature around him suddenly dropped. Killing intent! Cold, as if the cold wind in the depths of winter was piercing. "Looking for death!" Zhou Peng spat out two words. The aura released from his body was earth-shattering. The cold light in his eyes was even colder than thousand-year-old ice. Wutian's heart tightened. His golden pupils suddenly contracted. He roared angrily, "It's you who are looking for death!" Then, dozens of people surrounded Zhou Peng ten feet away from him. Dozens of people were all in human form condensed by tenth-level perfect monsters. Their strength was extremely powerful.!.
