Chapter 591: Chapter 598: I’m Happy Now! (Third Update)
The sudden turn of events took everyone present by surprise.
Even the expert at the Divine Transformation Stage furrowed his brows, looked up with astonishment, and exclaimed, “Golden Crow?”
Everyone looked aghast at the enormous Golden Crow that was hovering in mid-air, its massive wings covering the sky and obscuring the sun. Furious waves of fire surged wildly, and with each tilt of its head, terrifying sonic explosions ripped through the atmosphere, causing everything on earth to tremble uncontrollably.
There were two women on the back of the Golden Crow. One was peaceful like a serene stream, dressed in a snow-white gown, her face showing a composed expression. The other was pretty with sparkling eyes and dressed in a light blue long skirt, unable to conceal her incredibly attractive legs.
Yang Zhen was staring dumbfoundedly at the two beautiful women who looked as though they had walked straight out of a painting. He shared a glance with his pet cat and broke into a broad grin.
At that moment, Yang Zhen looked like a fool — not pretending to be one, but genuinely seeming like one.
Li Cangxu’s insanity and Yang Zhen’s frenzy left a profound impression on everyone present.
The pet cat was clearly delighted, twirling in place and yelling excitedly, “Quick, look, lad. Look! Damn, that brash rooster has actually transformed into a phoenix.”
Yang Zhen slapped the cat and scolded, “Damn it, that’s clearly a Golden Crow, you moron. Does the phoenix in your family look like this?”
The pet cat retorted, “You mortals, always seeing but never understanding!”
Ignoring the confounded look on Yang Zhen’s face, the cat waved at the sky and shouted, “Hey, Rooster, over here! Damn it, show some respect!”
Boom-!
A terrifying hum echoed in the atmosphere as the Golden Crow morphed back into a rooster. Golden and splendid, it landed imperiously on the ground. After throwing a disdainful glance at the Divine Transformation Stage expert from Heavenly Spring Sacred Land, it pompously rolled its eyes and began leisurely preening its feathers. It didn’t expect the cat to suddenly pounce on it, creating a comical spectacle as the two scuffled.
Infuriated, the rooster and the cat engaged in a brawl, their feathers and fur scattering everywhere. These two clowns only shed a few feathers when they fought.
The newcomers were none other than the lovely Hua Youyue, the idiot Han Yan’er, and that melancholic creature, the rooster.
After landing, Hua Youyue calmly glanced at the Divine Transformation Stage expert from Heavenly Spring Sacred Land and approached Yang Zhen. She revealed a peaceful smile and whispered, “I’m here.”
There were no needless words. She was standing there quietly, looking at Yang Zhen like he was her whole world.
With a strange look on her face, Han Yan’er cast a glance at Yang Zhen, hesitated for a moment, then turned her head and said in a similar manner, “Me too.”
Yang Zhen burst into laughter. Ignoring the presence of others, he rushed towards the two women, catching each one around their waist. He twirled them around several times before finally setting them down.
“Good that you are here. I have never imagined longing for…two persons like this,” he said.
Zing!
Han Yan’er’s face paled as she drew out the Sun Shadow Holy Soldier sword and glared at Yang Zhen angrily.
Hua Youyue, however, watched Yang Zhen quietly, her face flushed.
Just as Yang Zhen was about to coax the belligerent Han Yan’er, a snort came from the rooster. The rooster, with its feathers messed up by the cat’s mischief, looked discontentedly at Yang Zhen.
“Damn it, I forgot about you. Yes, I missed you too. I missed you so much that I couldn’t eat or drink. Do you know that I watch the palace in the ice mountain from atop a peak every day, my eyes becoming as clear as autumn water?” spat Yang Zhen.
“Ugh!” The confounded rooster retched in disgust, while the spectators were puzzled at this spectacle.
The bewildered Little Fatty gawked at Yang Zhen and the others. He mumbled to himself, “Are all these people really as hilarious as they seem? Nope, not the pretty fairies. Damn it, what makes Yang Zhen so special that he attracts the attention of not one, but two such gorgeous women?”
It was obvious to everyone that while Han Yan’er was threatening Yang Zhen with a sword, her mind was focused on the Divine Transformation Stage expert.
Should that expert make a move, the first one to react would undoubtedly be Han Yan’er!
Among all the people present, Yang Zhen, probably, was the only one who didn’t take the Divine Transformation Stage expert seriously. He circled Hua Youyue and Han Yan’er, looking flummoxed, and asked, “What’s the hurry in you cultivating so fast?”
Hearing this, everyone present was left clueless. Why indeed should they cultivate so fast?
Are there actually people in this world who worry about cultivating too quickly?
Who wouldn’t grab every opportunity to cultivate? The faster the better, right?
Hearing Yang Zhen’s words, Han Yan’er glanced at him and said, “Couldn’t suppress it!”
“Couldn’t suppress it?” Yang Zhen froze for a moment, looking at Hua Youyue, curious about her take on the situation.
He was surprised that not only had Sao Saint begun to practice the Law of Heaven and Earth, but Hua Youyue had also reached the peak of the Mahayana Phase. Even Han Yan’er, still in her Daoist apprentice stage, was already at the peak of the Mahayana Phase.
What was going on with these two? Had they cheated somehow?
Hua Youyue was a fragment of the Tri-Floral Saintess’s Spirit Soul that had evolved into a complete humanoid. It was no surprise that with her memories of the Saintess, her cultivation would double in efficiency. But what about Han Yan’er?
She had adopted Yang Zhen’s perspective on cultivation, but given he was just starting to reach the peak of the Mahayana Phase, how was it possible that she was there as well?
This… seemed a bit unscientific.
Watching how Yang Zhen and the others acted as though he was invisible, the Divine Transformation stage expert from the Heavenly Spring Sacred Land changed his expression before laughing and saying, “It seems… you truly don’t take me seriously!”
Yang Zhen waved his hand, saying, “I, the Sao Saint, am in a good mood right now, so I don’t want to fight. Do whatever you want. If you’re upset on behalf of Li Cangxu and think beating me up will make you feel better, I won’t retaliate.”
Everyone stared at Yang Zhen dumbfounded, none of them had expected him to say something like that.
The Divine Transformation stage expert from Heavenly Spring Sacred Land burst out laughing. He looked at Yang Zhen with interest, and said, “Now I understand why Cangxu chose you. You two are two peas in a pod. No, you are even crazier than he is. That’s both a good and a bad thing!”
Having said this, the Divine Transformation stage expert shook his head and said, “Well, since you two have chosen this path, I’ll leave you to face whatever comes next. This world is far more fantastic than you imagine. Petty issues like these are hardly matters of life and death.”
Hearing these words, everyone present was stunned, staring bewildered at the Divine Transformation stage expert from Heavenly Spring Sacred Land.
The Heavenly Spring Saint Lord and others looked at the Divine Transformation stage expert, wanting to say something but hesitating.
So… they were letting Yang Zhen go?
The Divine Transformation stage expert glanced at the group from Heavenly Spring Sacred Land, sighed, and said to Heavenly Snow Saint Lord, “When that old man Wan Xu comes out of seclusion, tell him to find me.”
The Heavenly Snow Saint Lord nodded, saying, “Senior Brother Wan has been considering coming out of seclusion recently. I’ll pass on your message.”
Laughing softly, the Divine Transformation stage expert from Heavenly Spring Sacred Land turned to Yang Zhen and said, “See you in the Ancient Ruins, kid.”
“Sure, I’m not afraid,” Yang Zhen smacked his lips. “And remind Li Cangxu to pay more attention to people’s hearts. He needs to see where he’s going or he might just corner himself.”
“Pay attention to their hearts?” Puzzled by this advice, the Divine Transformation stage expert seemed to ponder for a moment before saying, “I understand.”
Nobody had expected that what seemed like an imminent catastrophe would dissolve so easily. They all stared at Yang Zhen, puzzled. What surprised them even more was that Yang Zhen would offer such advice to Li Cangxu. He truly was a peculiar person.
In fact, everyone they’d met today was an oddball.
The Scallion Cat, watching as the Divine Transformation stage expert disappeared into the sky, asked with a strange expression, “Kid, we’re just letting this guy off like this?”
Yang Zhen grinned, saying, “He has his own fears!”
“What?” The Scallion Cat was taken aback, not understanding why a practitioner in the Divine Transformation Stage would have any fears.
Yang Zhen shrugged, saying, “Let’s disperse. I, the Sao Saint, also have my own fears. This fight can’t happen. Not today at least.”
Hua Youyue glanced at Yang Zhen and spoke calmly, “He plans to kill you in the Ancient Ruins.”
Yang Zhen burst out laughing!
“If he can’t kill me now, he won’t be able to in the future either!”
