Chapter 107: The Cold Wind Strikes, Chen Yue Faces a Dead End!
Jiao Yan knew in his heart that if he could be seriously injured once, he could be seriously injured a second time.
Chen Yue's decision not to pursue the three of them for their own sake, and to let them go instead of exterminating them, is already the greatest act of forgiveness.
It would be rather unethical to suddenly rise up in resistance at this time.
Whether he can defeat Chen Yue is still a question. If the situation just happened again, he would be seriously injured and fall to the ground again, making it difficult for him to move.
Then Chen Yue would definitely not continue to make the decision to let the three go, and would definitely trap them here forever.
This situation is absolutely unacceptable. Jiao Yan is still young, has exceptional talent, and has a bright future ahead of him.
They certainly wouldn't offend Chen Yue to death because of a momentary lapse in judgment.
After all, there's no deep-seated hatred, so who would willingly throw their life away?
Chen Yue said coldly, "Since that's really what you think, why don't you get lost?!"
Jiao Yan immediately urged, "Junior Brother Liu, take Junior Brother Zhao and go!"
After saying that, he suddenly remembered that there wasn't a single crack in the four walls, so he couldn't squeeze out and where could he go?
Jiao Yan asked, "Young Master Chen Yue, where is the exit of this place?"
"Right beneath your feet." As Chen Yue uttered these words, the Ancient Tower of Babel rose from the ground.
When this enormous thing suddenly moved, the ground trembled.
The character "毅" (yi, meaning perseverance) that I was just standing on has quietly disappeared, turning into a forest of fallen leaves scattered all over the ground.
The enormous creature that had trapped the four people was shrinking at a rate visible to the naked eye.
Jiao Yan and Junior Brother Liu immediately looked up, trying to see what exactly was trapping them.
An exquisite little black tower slowly fell into Chen Yue's hand.
"What is that... a tower?" Jiao Yan asked with a surprised expression.
What had just trapped them was actually a tower.
Once freed from his predicament, Jiao Yan felt a sudden brightness before his eyes. He closed his eyes and opened them again, finally finding himself back in the forest where he had been trapped.
Having finally escaped, Jiao Yan and Junior Brother Liu dragged the seriously injured and unconscious Junior Brother Zhao in a daze.
What just happened was truly surreal.
Looking at the black tower in Chen Yue's hand, Jiao Yan's intuition told him that it was definitely not an ordinary item.
It can easily trap several people and can freely change its size; they are at least of Earth Soldier rank.
Even he didn't have such a treasure, and Jiao Yan couldn't help but cast an envious glance at him.
Although the young master of the Chen family in front of us was born in a small place like Jiangcheng, he does not yet have a powerful force to rely on.
However, the strength he has demonstrated is absolutely not to be underestimated.
By this time, Jiao Yan had begun to think that Feng Lingxi's decision to annul the engagement was a foolish one.
"No, I'm the one who's confused."
Jiao Yan shook his head, immediately dismissing his previous thought.
He almost lost his life in Jiangcheng because of Feng Lingxi.
Having learned this painful lesson, he will not listen to a single slanderous word after returning to Yunxuan Sect.
As for venting my anger, so be it; what's more important than my life?
After figuring everything out, Jiao Yan clasped his hands in a fist salute and bowed slightly to Chen Yue.
"Young Master Chen Yue, we'll meet again someday."
"This destiny will soon come true."
Chen Yue recalled what he had said during the competition: he would definitely set foot in the Yunxuan Sect within a year.
He wanted to see just how far Feng Lingxi's supposedly powerful backer could go in nurturing her.
Jiao Yan didn't dare to say much. He nodded lightly and hurriedly left Jiangcheng with his two junior brothers. He didn't want to stay in this place for even a moment longer.
Seeing the three leave, Chen Yue turned and walked towards the Chen family home.
Walking straight through the path into the courtyard, a casual glance reveals that the house where I used to live has been reduced to ruins.
The walls were cracked all over, making it completely uninhabitable.
Chen Yue could only temporarily live in a storage room, which was messy but spacious.
Inside the courtyard, Xiao Xuan and Su Yi were sparring.
The aura emanating from him had undergone a qualitative leap compared to before.
It shouldn't be long before they are both able to draw the source into their bodies and become source users.
The two were so focused on dealing with the situation that they didn't notice Chen Yue watching them from a short distance away.
During the battle, it seemed that Xiao Xuan was on the offensive, but it was clear at a glance that Su Yi had the upper hand.
He handled Xiao Xuan's every move with ease, while Su Yi's attacks always caught Xiao Xuan off guard.
Perhaps Su Yi's deep understanding of Xiao Xuan's fighting style stemmed largely from the fact that he had been beaten up so many times in his daily life.
He could immediately tell whether it was a palm or a fist as long as Xiaoxuan made a subtle move.
After watching for a while, Chen Yue deduced that Su Yi would narrowly defeat Xiao Xuan.
The reason it was a narrow victory was because Chen Yue was certain that Su Yi would not dare to win too easily.
If that were the case, he would definitely be beaten even worse by Xiaoxuan.
Having fought since childhood, Su Yi has developed a psychological trauma towards Xiao Xuan.
Chen Yue felt a chill behind him and suddenly remembered that when he left home, his mother was at her wit's end in comprehending the Cold Rain Ice Illusion Technique.
I gently pushed open my mother's door, and a blast of biting cold air hit me.
Dozens of ice spikes hung calmly in the air, and a bright blue source energy mark was clearly planted between Chen Yue's eyebrows.
A chill ran through Chen Yue's brow, and his heart sank as he reached out to touch it.
Marked by the source force imprint, dozens of sharp ice spikes immediately captured their target.
"My mother didn't even touch my body, so how could she have planted a source energy mark on me?!"
Chen Yue immediately thought of the blast of cold air that hit him when he opened the door.
"No way, this actually works?"
Chen Yue mobilized his source energy, condensing several layers of source energy barriers around his body.
Immediately afterwards, the ice spike shot out swiftly, aiming straight for Chen Yue's marked brow.
"I never imagined that, besides that iceberg, I would experience another dead end."
With a slight thought, Chen Yue ignited a ball of fire in his right hand.
With a clang, Chen Yue, wielding the Heavenly Crimson Hammer, smashed several ice spikes in two.
His body was protected by layers of source energy barriers, so these ice spikes couldn't hurt him at all.
They could only watch helplessly as Chen Yue swung the Heavenly Crimson Hammer, smashing the ice spikes to pieces one by one.
As flames ignited, the shattered ice spikes had no chance of reforming and were instantly burned into a cloud of mist.
In less than a minute, Chen Yue had smashed all the dozens of ice spikes.
"Fortunately, my mother's cultivation level was only at the Enlightenment Realm; if it were at the Origin Condensation Realm..."
Chen Yue couldn't believe that the power of his mother's "Desperate Situation" was significantly greater than his own.
At first glance, the mother, Luan Xinying's body shimmered with a pale blue light.
A thought immediately popped into Chen Yue's mind: "Did the Spirit Ice Body resonate with the Cold Rain Illusion Technique?"
Flames erupted, and the Heavenly Crimson Hammer returned to the mark on Chen Yue's right hand.
The ice picks were all removed, and he was no longer in any danger.
Chen Yue sat calmly to one side, quietly waiting for his mother to wake up.
Judging from the time and the power of the ice spikes just now, it shouldn't be long before it ends.
Luan Xinying's understanding of the Cold Rain Ice Illusion Technique is definitely a level higher than Chen Yue's.
