Chapter 506 Wang Jian's Talent
Chu Yang turned his gaze towards Zhi Xi, his eyes burning with accusation. "Zhi Xi, why have you brought this man here?" he demanded, his voice tinged with frustration. "You know it goes against the core rules of our sect."
Zhi Xi rolled her eyes at Chu Yang's question, a hint of exasperation creeping into her tone. "Oh, Chu Yang, always so quick to jump to conclusions," she chided, her voice laced with sarcasm. "I'm taking Wang Jian to meet with Pavilion Mistress Cui Lan. It's as simple as that."
Chu Yang's brow furrowed in disbelief as he processed Zhi Xi's words. "But why does he need to meet with the Pavilion Mistress?" he pressed, his tone skeptical.
Zhi Xi's gaze softened as she met Chu Yang's eyes, her expression earnest. "Because Wang Jian possesses unique talents that I believe will impress Pavilion Mistress Cui Lan," she explained patiently. "I want her to see his potential and offer him support through our sect's resources."
Chu Yang remained rooted to the spot, his eyes narrowing with suspicion as he scrutinized Wang Jian. "I still don't trust him," he declared, his voice firm. "Before you meet with the Pavilion Mistress, I want to test his combat skills."
Zhi Xi's brow arched in frustration, a scowl forming on her lips. "Chu Yang, must you always be so stubborn?" she snapped, her patience wearing thin. "I've already vouched for Wang Jian. There's no need for unnecessary tests."
Wang Jian placed a calming hand on Zhi Xi's shoulder, his touch gentle yet firm. "It's all right, Zhi Xi," he reassured her, his voice soothing. "If it will put Chu Yang's mind at ease, I'll indulge him in a brief demonstration of my skills."
Zhi Xi's gaze softened as she looked up at Wang Jian, her frustration melting away in the face of his calm demeanor. She knew he was more than capable of handling whatever Chu Yang threw his way, but she couldn't help feeling irritated by Chu Yang's stubbornness.
Unbeknownst to Zhi Xi, Chu Yang's insistence on testing Wang Jian stemmed from a deep-seated jealousy fueled by her close relationship with the newcomer. The thought of Zhi Xi growing close to another man ignited a fierce possessiveness within him, driving him to assert his dominance and protect what he perceived as his territory.
As Chu Yang and Wang Jian prepared to face off, the tension in the air crackled with anticipation. The beauties of the patrolling unit watched with bated breath, their eyes darting between the two men as they awaited the outcome of the impending showdown.
As the showdown between Chu Yang and Wang Jian unfolded, the air crackled with anticipation, each moment charged with the potential for explosive action.
Chu Yang's eyes narrowed with determination as he unleashed a flurry of attacks, each strike imbued with deadly precision and power.
"Heavenly Whirlwind Fist!" he called out, his fist cutting through the air with a whistling sound as it hurtled towards Wang Jian.
Wang Jian's eyes narrowed in concentration as he anticipated Chu Yang's move, his body moving with fluid grace as he dodged the attack with ease. "Hmm…Interesting attack," he muttered under his breath, his movements effortless and precise.
Zhi Xi watched with bated breath, her heart swelling with pride as Wang Jian effortlessly evaded Chu Yang's onslaught. "That's it, Wang Jian! Show him what you're made of," she cheered, her voice filled with excitement.
Chu Yang's frustration grew with each failed attack, his brow furrowing in annoyance as Wang Jian danced effortlessly out of harm's way. "Sky Splitting Palm!" he roared, his palm slamming down with thunderous force as he attempted to catch Wang Jian off guard.
But Wang Jian was one step ahead, his instincts honed to perfection as he sidestepped the attack with lightning-fast reflexes. "Close, but still too slow," he quipped, a smirk playing at the corners of his lips.
"Gravity Crush!" Chu Yang roared, unleashing a powerful burst of gravitational force aimed at Wang Jian.
But Wang Jian was already several steps ahead, leaping effortlessly out of harm's way as the ground beneath him trembled with the force of Chu Yang's attack.
The group of beauties who had initially been confident in Chu Yang's abilities, due to his possession of the Heavenly Jade Emperor Meridians, watched in astonishment as Wang Jian continued to dodge with precision. They exchanged amazed glances, their admiration for Wang Jian growing with each passing moment.
"He's like a ghost, dodging every move with precision," one of the beauties marveled, her eyes wide with admiration.
"It's as though he can see into the future, anticipating Chu Yang's every move," another remarked, her voice filled with awe.
As the battle raged on, Wang Jian's movements became more fluid and precise, his dodges bordering on the supernatural as he effortlessly evaded Chu Yang's relentless assault. It was as though he were dancing through a storm, his every step a testament to his mastery of the martial arts.
Chu Yang's frustration reached its boiling point as Wang Jian continued to evade his attacks with infuriating ease. "Heavenly Energy Blast!" he snarled, summoning a surge of celestial energy to launch at Wang Jian with deadly force.
But Wang Jian was already on the move, his body twisting and weaving through the air as he narrowly avoided the blast. "Not today, Chu Yang," he taunted, his voice laced with amusement.
Zhi Xi watched with a mixture of awe and amusement as Wang Jian effortlessly dodged Chu Yang's attacks, her smile widening with each graceful movement. "He's incredible," she murmured to herself, her heart swelling with pride.
As the battle drew to a close, Chu Yang's frustration was palpable, his breath coming in ragged gasps as he struggled to land a single blow on Wang Jian. "Enough!" he growled, his voice tinged with defeat.
Wang Jian regarded Chu Yang with a calm expression, his demeanor unruffled despite the intensity of the battle. "Are you done?" he asked, his tone casual.
Chu Yang's jaw clenched in frustration as he glared at Wang Jian, his pride wounded by his inability to best his opponent. "For now," he conceded grudgingly, his voice tight with frustration.
With the battle over, Zhi Xi approached Wang Jian with a proud smile, her eyes shining with admiration. "You were amazing out there," she exclaimed, her voice filled with genuine awe.
Wang Jian grinned back at her, a sense of satisfaction coursing through him. "Just doing what I do best," he replied modestly, his gaze lingering on Chu Yang with a hint of amusement.
Meanwhile, the group of beauties gathered around Wang Jian, their eyes shining with admiration as they showered him with praise. "You have a truly wonderful battle sense," one of them gushed, her voice filled with awe.
"Thank you," Wang Jian replied graciously, his smile widening at the unexpected praise. "It was my pleasure to demonstrate my skills for you all."
As the dust settled from the intense showdown between Wang Jian and Chu Yang, Zhi Xi stepped forward, her eyes sparkling with pride as she prepared to sing the praises of her talented companion.
"Wow, Wang Jian, that was incredible!" she exclaimed, her voice filled with admiration. "But let me tell you all, that's just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to his talents."
The group of patrolling beauties listened intently, their curiosity piqued by Zhi Xi's words. They had witnessed Wang Jian's prowess in combat firsthand, but they were about to discover that his talents extended far beyond the realm of martial arts.
"Wang Jian isn't just a master of combat," Zhi Xi continued, her voice brimming with excitement. "He's also a genius when it comes to array formations. He can manipulate them with ease and even take control of someone else's formations!"
But Zhi Xi wasn't finished yet. "And that's not all," she added, her smile widening. "Wang Jian is also quite skilled in alchemy. He has a knack for mixing ingredients and crafting potions with incredible precision."
The beauties exchanged incredulous glances, their eyebrows shooting up in surprise at Zhi Xi's revelation. Array formations and alchemy were no simple feats—they required intricate knowledge and skill beyond the reach of most cultivators. If Zhi Xi was praising Wang Jian's abilities in these areas, it meant his talent was truly extraordinary.
"Array formations and alchemy?" one of the beauties echoed, her voice tinged with disbelief. "But those are highly complex disciplines. How can Wang Jian be proficient in both?"
Zhi Xi nodded emphatically, a proud smile gracing her lips. "Believe me, it's true," she assured them. "Wang Jian's talents know no bounds. He's a true prodigy."
Meanwhile, Chu Yang's gaze remained fixed on Wang Jian, his expression darkening with a sense of fury. 'Array formations and alchemy,' he seethed inwardly. 'If Wang Jian's talents truly extend to those areas, he poses an even greater threat than I imagined.'
But then, a sense of determination settled over Chu Yang as he reminded himself of Pavilion Mistress Cui Lan's authority. 'Even if Wang Jian is skilled in combat, there's no way the Pavilion Mistress will allow him to remain in our territory,' he reasoned. 'Once she sends him away, I'll seize the opportunity to request a mission with Zhi Xi.'
A devious smirk curled at the corners of Chu Yang's lips as he plotted his next move. 'On this mission, I'll do everything in my power to cultivate romantic feelings between Zhi Xi and myself,' he resolved. 'It's the perfect plan.'
As Zhi Xi continued to extol Wang Jian's talents, the group of beauties listened with rapt attention, their admiration for him growing with each passing moment. It was clear to them now that Wang Jian was no ordinary cultivator—he was a force to be reckoned with.
"Wow, Wang Jian truly is something else," one of the beauties marveled, her eyes shining with awe.
Meanwhile, Wang Jian remained humble in the face of the praise, his gaze shifting to Zhi Xi with gratitude. "Thank you for your kind words, Zhi Xi," he said sincerely, his voice filled with appreciation.
Zhi Xi smiled back at him, her heart swelling with pride. "You've earned every bit of praise, Wang Jian," she replied, her voice filled with warmth.
