Chapter 2552: Ice Flame Continent 9
Editor:Henyee Translations
What a fool, the Kang familys disciple hastily came to Ziluos aid.
In their eyes, Ziluo wasnt at fault; Kang s.h.i.+ seemed to be feigning humility more than anyone else.
Who are you calling stupid? Youre the ones stirring up trouble. Gu Chaoyan, unwilling to suppress her anger, shot back.
Especially now.
He couldnt afford to be weak.
With his engagement annulled, he looked bad, and his fathers position in the clan was precarious.
If he continued to endure mistreatment, theyd truly have no standing in the clan.
So from now on, regardless of the circ.u.mstances, Gu Chaoyan had to stand up for himself.
The Kang family disciples didnt expect Kang s.h.i.+ to be so unreasonable.
While everyone in the Anicca Race could be a.s.sertive, Kang s.h.i.+ wasnt known for such behavior.
One of them made a move against Kang s.h.i.+.
No matter the words spoken, physical confrontation seemed more fitting.
Ziluos anger cooled as she utilized her spiritual energy against Kang s.h.i.+. However, with Gu Chaoyan in control of Kang s.h.i.+s body, he swiftly dodged the attack, and the spiritual energy missed its target.
In the eyes of onlookers, it appeared as a mere mishap, an empty swing of spiritual energy. Kang s.h.i.+ was deemed lucky.
Yet, luck wasnt a universal trait.
Therefore, without dwelling on it, they continued their a.s.sault.
Gu Chaoyan, no longer intending to hide, acknowledged that they wouldnt let him off today. Since they were determined to pursue him, there was no need to seek refuge.
It just so happened that his cultivation had already improved, and he needed a way to make it known.
Now seemed like the perfect opportunity.
Gu Chaoyan skillfully evaded the incoming spiritual energy attacks, wasting no time for anyone to linger. Sending out a surge of spiritual energy, she knocked the a.s.sailant away, causing him to fall to the ground and cough up blood.
Initially, his evasion might have seemed lucky, but the extent of the damage inflicted on his attacker was no longer attributable to mere luck.
Kang Yan gaped at Kang s.h.i.+.
Could it be
Had his cultivation, dormant for so many years, actually broken through?
That couldnt be!
Kang Yan persisted in attacking Kang s.h.i.+, eager to gauge the extent of his newfound strength.
Confronting Kang Yan, Kang s.h.i.+s sixth-level Martial Sage cultivation proved woefully inadequate.
Gu Chaoyan attempted to avoid Kang s.h.i.+, devising a strategy to handle the situation herself. Unexpectedly, Kang Yan found himself unable to harm Kang s.h.i.+.
This left Kang Yan feeling uneasy.
He promptly ceased his a.s.sault, as if issuing a warning. Persisting in pestering Kang s.h.i.+ would only expose his powerlessness to the clan, diminis.h.i.+ng his standing. It was not something he wanted.
Whats the matter? Making strides in cultivation now, and bullying your fellow clan members? Kang Yan inquired after stopping.
Everyone has eyes. I didnt initiate the attack. Im not weaker than anyone else. Throughout, I, Kang s.h.i.+, have been the one subjected to bullying. Who else could I possibly bully? Kang s.h.i.+ retorted.
Very well! Kang Yan held his emotions in check and stated. After a pause, he added, In the future, keep your distance from Ziluo.
