The first rays of dawn spilled across qifeng
City, bathing its ancient streets in a soft golden glow. A thin veil of mist drifted from the Azure River that wound through the heart of the city, its waters shimmering like liquid jade beneath the morning sun.
Along the riverbanks, fishermen cast their nets into the calm waters while small wooden boats glided silently across the surface. The rhythmic splashing of oars blended with the distant cries of waterbirds, creating a peaceful melody that echoed through the waking city.
Suddenly black clouds covered qifeng city several streak of light appeared from under it three cultivators one at the heavenly layer one at the earth and one at the beginning every mortal could see them hovering the sky fear had gripped their hearts again for a good half a year they had lived without worry
Within the city lord mansion Zhou yu say in cross legged meditation he was integrating the true dragon bloodline for a good half a year he had only integrated forty percent of the true dragon bloodline The city lord came knocking panically immediately Zhou yu could tell Zhou Feng had come with his backers he opened the door The city lord said
" Master Zhou they're here "
Zhou yu said
" I know let's go and meet them "
Zhou yu did not panic he had a cool demeanor he went out when he did Zhou Feng said arrogantly
" That's him that's the disciple who injured me "
The elder's palm descended heavenly realm spiritual energy surged like a tidal wave the very air screamed under the pressure Zhou yu clenched his fists he knew he could not block this attack.
The gap between the beginning realm and heavenly realm was simply too great Yet his expression remained calm inside him a pair of ancient golden eyes slowly opened.
"You've found trouble again."
The familiar voice echoed through his mind relief flashed through Zhou yu heart.
"Jin."
The demonic beast yawned lazily it had slept for a good while zhou yu did not know the reason for sleeping but just knew that when he was ready he would come back
"At the early layer he dares act so arrogantly before this sovereign."
Outside, the elder's attack drew closer the city lord's face turned pale su yan covered her mouth everyone believed Zhou yu was about to die
"Relax."
The demonic beast's voice carried a trace of amusement.
"I won't kill them , I'll simply teach them fear."
Boom!
The heavenly realm aura erupted from Zhou Yu body the clouds darkened instantly the sunlight vanished the city seemed to fall into endless night the elder froze his attack halted midway.
An indescribable pressure descended upon them Zhou yu slowly raised his head his pupils had become golden the elder's body trembled for reasons he could not explain, every instinct in his body screamed danger extreme danger the kind of danger one felt before death itself he said
"Impossible..."
Cold sweat covered his forehead his cultivation base was still the same Zhou Yu was only at the beginning realm yet the aura surrounding him felt as though an ancient god had awakened he did nothing
His gaze landed upon the elder nothing happened no attack no divine technique just a gaze yet the elder immediately coughed blood his soul felt as though it would shatter he staggered backward repeatedly.
Fear pure fear the kind of fear that came from facing a predator millions of times stronger than oneself Jin spoke through Zhou yu
"You came seeking justice "
the elder could not answer his mind had gone blank his eyes shifted toward Zhao Feng the young disciple immediately collapsed his robes became soaked he had lost control of his bladder the proud arrogance he once possessed was nowhere to be seen only terror remained Jin chuckled
"A fascinating creature ,It threatened mortals ,It relied on backing ,it sought revenge after losing and now it cannot even stand "
The elder finally bowed a heaven realm cultivator bowing his voice trembled.
"Senior... we were blind We did not know a great existence was present "
Jin laughed as he was currently in possession of Zhou Yu body
"You think this sovereign hides behind titles and status?"
The elder's face became even paler countless years later, he would still dream of those eyes.
"Leave."
One word only one word yet it sounded like heavenly law itself the elder immediately clasped his fists.
"We leave now!"
He didn't dare stay another second not one the disciples scrambled to their feet within moments, everyone from the Black Serpent Sect fled not a single person looked back not a single person dared.
The city celebrated again
A moment later, Jin aura began fading away
The darkness retreated sunlight returned everything became normal once more zhou yu staggered blood trickled from the corner of his mouth Jin voice echoed weakly within his mind.
"That should keep them afraid for a few decades."
Zhou yu smiled
"You didn't even attack."
Jin laughed.
"Why waste strength , sometimes fear is far more effective than death "
Meanwhile, far beyond the city, the fleeing elder suddenly spat another mouthful of blood one of the disciples nervously asked,
"Sect leader.. should we report this to the celestial heaven sect?"
His face was still pale , immediately the disciples said that he remembered where he had seen the young man who had made him feel terror beyond comprehension he said
" The wanted posters , bring them out now "
The disciple brought out the wanted posters and immediately they recognized him the sect leader laughed then said
" If he can do this we can also do the same "
He brought out a talisman said zhou yu was in qifeng city then sent it towards the direction of the celestial heaven sect
Back in qifeng city lord su qifeng said he did not know Zhou yu was that strong he announced that Zhou yu was their new immortal protector Zhou yu wanted to stop him but he had already said what he could Jin said
" Look who becoming revered "
