Chapter 151 The Strong Ones of the High-Level Continent
"Master Yan, I'm not here today to listen to your sweet talk."
Lan Yunyan stood up, the longsword in her hand emitting a faint cold light. "If you, the Yan family, wish to continue to be my enemy, then I, Lan Yunyan, will fight you to the end. But if you wish to coexist peacefully, then please show your true sincerity."
A flash of anger flashed in Patriarch Yan's eyes. He hadn't expected Lan Yunyan to be so ungrateful. He stood up, his voice turning cold.
"Lan Yunyan, do you really think that you alone can fight against our entire Yan family?"
A glimmer of determination flashed in Lan Yunyan's eyes. She knew that she was facing a difficult struggle, but she would never give up.
"Master Yan, I have never thought of going against the entire Yan family. But if you insist on forcing me, then I, Lan Yunyan, will not sit idly by and wait for death."
Lan Yunyan's voice was firm. "Today, I am putting my words here. If you, the Yan family, try to hunt me down again, I, Lan Yunyan, will make you pay the price."
After saying that, Lan Yunyan turned and left the Yan family mansion.
The head of the Yan family looked at Lan Yunyan's departing back, and the anger on his face was gradually replaced by a gloomy look.
He knew that Lan Yunyan was no ordinary person; her strength and courage were well-known in the martial arts world. The head of the Yan family took a deep breath, trying to calm himself.
"Master, do we really want to be enemies with Lan Yunyan?" The elder of the Yan family asked in a low voice.
The head of the Yan family was silent for a moment, then slowly spoke: "Although Lan Yunyan is powerful, she is only one person after all. Our Yan family has a strong foundation, and it is not something she can easily shake. However, we cannot underestimate her and must act with caution."
He turned around, his eyes sweeping over every elder present. "Pass on my order. From today onwards, the Yan family is not allowed to attack Lan Yunyan without authorization. We must closely monitor her every move. If she makes any unusual movements, report to me immediately."
The elders nodded in agreement. The Yan family head's decision not only preserved the Yan family's dignity but also avoided unnecessary conflict. It was a wise choice.
He slowly sat down, his fingers tapping lightly on the table as he began to weigh the pros and cons. While the Yan family was powerful, Lan Yunyan also had considerable support behind her. If they truly fell out, a mutually destructive outcome would be inevitable.
At this moment, an elder of the Yan family walked in and whispered a few words in his ear. The head of the Yan family's face changed slightly, and then nodded.
"It seems that we need to reconsider our countermeasures." He muttered to himself, with a shrewd gleam in his eyes.
At the same time, Lan Yunyan walked out of the Yan family mansion and did not return directly to her residence. Instead, she came to a remote alley.
She knew that her previous statement had aroused the Yan family's vigilance, and that more trouble would surely be waiting for her.
She was not afraid, but instead showed a faint smile.
At this moment, a dark shadow suddenly emerged from the depths of the alley and attacked Lan Yunyan. Lan Yunyan's eyes flashed, and she quickly drew her sword and rushed forward.
A fierce battle erupted instantly, with swords flying and sparks flying in the alley. Lan Yunyan, relying on her extraordinary strength and agility, gradually gained the upper hand.
However, just as she was about to end the battle, she suddenly felt a powerful aura approaching. She was startled, knowing that this might be the real challenge.
Lan Yunyan turned the tip of her sword and stopped entangled with the black shadow in front of her. Instead, she took a few steps back and looked vigilantly at the source of the powerful aura.
Seeing this, the black shadow stopped attacking and disappeared into the darkness. It was obvious that he was sent to test Lan Yunyan.
Under the moonlight, a figure slowly stepped out. His steps were steady, and every step seemed to tread on Lan Yunyan's heartstrings. The man was dressed in a green shirt and had a handsome face, but his eyes revealed a cold and isolated indifference.
"Lan Yunyan, your strength is truly admirable." The man in green robes spoke, his voice as clear and pleasant as his appearance. "But in this continent, this alone is not enough."
Lan Yunyan gripped the hilt of the sword tightly. She could feel the opponent's strength. It was a feeling of oppression that far exceeded her previous opponents.
"Who are you?" she asked coldly.
The man in green smiled faintly, as if he wasn't surprised by Lan Yunyan's question. "It doesn't matter who I am. What matters is that I can give you a choice."
He paused, then continued, "Join us, or... become our enemy."
Lan Yunyan snorted coldly. She had never considered submitting to anyone. "I, Lan Yunyan, never accept threats from anyone, and I will never become someone else's pawn."
A flicker of admiration flashed across the green-shirted man's eyes, but it was quickly replaced by a gloomy expression. "If that's the case, don't blame me for being rude."
As soon as he finished speaking, his figure turned into a green shadow and attacked Lan Yunyan.
Lan Yunyan danced with her sword, the sword light like water, trying to resist the attack of the green-shirted man. However, the green-shirted man's moves were strange and unpredictable, and each move seemed to contain endless changes, making Lan Yunyan unable to defend herself.
The battle intensified, and Lan Yunyan gradually felt the pressure. She knew that if she didn't find the opponent's weakness quickly, she might be defeated. Her swordsmanship became more brutal, and each strike was filled with the determination to kill.
At this moment, the green-shirted man's attack suddenly paused, as if he was looking for a new opportunity to attack.
Lan Yunyan seized the opportunity and thrust her sword forward, aiming for the opponent's vital points. The man in green reacted extremely quickly, slightly tilting his body to avoid the fatal blow.
However, Lan Yunyan's sword was not just a one-shot strike. The tip of her sword turned, drew an arc, and attacked the man in green again.
A hint of surprise flashed in the eyes of the man in green. He obviously did not expect Lan Yunyan's swordsmanship to be so exquisite.
In a flash, the man in green suddenly leaned back, almost parallel to the ground, and the tip of Lan Yunyan's sword brushed past his cheek.
