Overriding the Heaven

0Stopping outside the gates of Chu Yan's courtyard was a courteous disciple.    

    

What he brought were the "good news" that Jiang Panmeng had mentioned before.    

    

"A mission assigned by the sect?" After hearing the disciple's explanation, Chu Yan blinked and asked suspiciously.    

    

This disciple gently smiled and said, "Junior has just joined the sect, so I'm afraid I'm not clear about it yet. This was a habit of our sect. But if a disciple could obtain a good result during their first time in the ranking competition, or had a huge improvement, they would all receive a reward from the sect. These rewards are not limited to cultivation techniques, medicinal pills, weapons, treasures, or even the missions with great rewards. The sect will also assign some of these missions to you. "    

    

"So that's how it is." Chu Yan understood, "Then Senior Brother, please wait for a moment, I will change my clothes and go with you."    

    

After asking the disciple to wait for a moment, Chu Yan changed into a set of clothes, brought along the storage bag and followed the other party.    

    

Along the way, Chu Yan inquired about their destination and the contents of their mission.    

    

This disciple laughed: "Junior Brother, you may have misunderstood. The mission is not to complete it with you, I am only responsible to lead you there. As for the contents of the quest, as far as I know, it isn't that difficult this time. It seems like I need to accompany a deacon from my sect to pass through the Plain Silver Valley to deliver something.    

    

This disciple didn't know the details of the current situation, so Chu Yan didn't continue to pursue the matter further and chatted with him for a while before arriving at the lake not far from the mountain gate.    

    

At the ferry by the lake, two figures were already waiting there.    

    

Chu Yan looked over and was surprised to find that one of them was actually Jiang Panmeng.    

    

The other one was an old man with a stooped figure, skinny and dry. His hair and beard were all white.    

    

Presumably, this old man was the deacon that he had just mentioned.    

    

Jiang Panmeng had already seen Chu Yan, but with the elder standing at the side, she did not dare to be impudent, and only smiled and waved at Chu Yan.    

    

Chu Yan nodded at them, and in a moment, he was in front of them.    

    

When they were walking over, Chu Yan had already asked clearly, that the male disciple who had brought him here was called Jiang Zhen, and that old man was indeed the Shattered Star Pavilion deacon who was going to travel with them this time, and his name was Yang Wen.    

    

"Greetings Deacon Yang. I have already brought Junior Brother Chu Yan here." bowed in front of Yang Wen.    

    

Yang Wen nodded, and looked at Chu Yan: "Let's give it a try, alright?"    

    

"Hmm?" Chu Yan looked at Jiang Zhen in puzzlement.    

    

Jiang Zhen smiled as he explained: "Junior Brother Chu, it's like this, although the Plain Silver Valley you guys have to pass through is a merchant road, along the way, there will be wild beasts and dire beasts passing by, so it's not safe. To confirm if you can complete this mission, it's up to me to test your strength."    

    

"So it's like that." Chu Yan nodded his head and took out the Soul Locking Spear.    

    

When they saw the Soul Locking Spear, the gazes of Yang Wen, Jiang Zhen and Jiang Panmeng present couldn't help but be drawn over, and the place quieted down.    

    

The Soul Locking Spear was created by Chu Yan with utmost care, and his entire body was releasing a dense amount of Evil Profound Spirit Qi. Around the edge of the spear, it was like countless of ghosts were wandering around, roaring, making anyone who saw it feel cold.    

    

Seeing the spear, Yang Wen's cloudy eyes could not help but light up, secretly praising the spear in his heart.    

    

Jiang Panmeng had just fought a big battle with Chu Yan a few days ago, and he had seen the Inflammatory Spear he used before.    

    

At the moment, the Soul Locking Spear in his hand was very different from a Inflammatory Spear. Although she was curious as to when Chu Yan had changed his weapon, she did not ask.    

    

"Good spear." Breaking the silence, he shifted his gaze from the Soul Locking Spear to Chu Yan's back and said, "It's like this, junior brother, attack me, as long as Deacon Yang is satisfied then it's fine."    

    

Chu Yan looked at Jiang Zhen, and at this moment, he vaguely understood why an outer disciple was bringing him here.    

    

"Then I'll be offending you. Be careful, Senior." As soon as Chu Yan finished speaking, he swept the area with his spear.    

    

"Don't mind it, just do it —" After Jiang Zhen finished his sentence, his face suddenly changed.    

    

As an outer sect disciple, he had thought that no matter what Chu Yan did, he would just be a disciple.    

    

But now, he regretted having such thoughts.    

    

Moreover, he was rejoicing that he did not say all that much just now.    

    

A huge force came crashing down, and Jiang Zhen felt as if the surrounding air had been sucked clean.    

    

He hastily raised his sword to block the blow.    

    

Chu Yan's speed was too fast, Jiang Zhen did not even have the time to pull out the sword.    

    

Bang!    

    

As if struck by a rolling thunder that had exploded in place, Jiang Zhen's body was instantly sent flying over forty five meters away. After somersaulting in midair, he finally landed on the ground.    

    

Even so, his arms were trembling, and the sword sheath in his hands could barely be held back. The astonishment in his heart was written all over his face, "Such immense strength, how did this kid train?"    

    

Chu Yan was about to attack again, but then he heard Yang Wen's aged voice: "It's enough."    

    

Chu Yan and Jiang Zhen turned their heads and saw Yang Wen nodding slightly.    

    

"You can go back, and I'll take the two of them." Yang Wen said to Jiang Zhen.    

    

"Yes." Jiang Zhen replied. As Yang Wen walked to the side of the lake, waiting for the ferryboat, he came to Chu Yan's side and quietly said: "Junior brother, no matter what happens during the journey, you must pretend not to see it. Do not disobey Deacon Yang's orders."    

    

"Hmm?" Chu Yan looked at him in puzzlement.    

    

It was obvious that the people behind the deacon had a lot of importance, and there was a lot of pressure on Jiang Zhen. At the moment, he turned to look at the deacon, and quickly said: "Just listen to me, Deacon Yang is a good person everywhere, and has contributed a lot to the sect, but just his personality … "Ai, I need to hurry up and leave. You'll know what's going on when the time comes."    

    

After saying that, he did not forget to add, "Let's talk after you return."    

    

After adding his last sentence, he hurriedly left as if he was afraid of being stopped by Yang Wen.    

    

Jiang Zhen's words were extremely baffling, and Chu Yan had no idea what was going on.    

    

But when he turned around, Jiang Panmeng was already standing in front of him.    

    

Although Jiang Panmeng was around the same age as her, within her temperament, there was a rare charming look, especially her watery eyes, charming red lips, and a pair of large round earrings that hung below her translucent earlobes.    

    

Now that he was being stared at by her watery eyes for a moment, Chu Yan could feel his cheeks slowly burning up.    

    

Therefore, he changed the topic and asked, "Senior sister Jiang, why are you participating in this mission this time?"    

    

"Isn't that a coincidence?" Jiang Panmeng pursed her lips and smiled. Her smile was like a blossoming peach flower, and the surrounding air seemed to be filled with a faint sweetness for a moment. "On this journey, I'll have to trouble Junior Brother Chu to advise me more."    

    

After she finished speaking, she seemed to feel that it was a little troublesome, and said: "You and I are of similar age and are both in the same sect, so it's too troublesome to always be Junior Sister's. I'll call you Chu Yan from now on, you can also just call me by my name."
