The Overlord's Fist

  "What's to be done? He's with Xi Yue County Master, how can I kill him?" Floating Cloud Immortal was momentarily flustered, but soon he came to his senses. "Xi Yue County Master is a woman, and previously she didn't know Ji Ning at all. This time it's just their first meeting, and they're trying to win Ji Ning over, so he got on a celestial carriage... I suppose they'll part ways soon, Ji Ning will return to his own residence, and Xi Yue County Master will also go back to the palace."

  Pursue

  "As soon as they separate, I'll kill Ji Ning." The Floating Cloud Immortal immediately transmitted an order to his subordinates, having them follow from a distance while he trailed far behind, in case of being discovered.

  Shao Yan's scout followed secretly, but found that Ji Ning and Xi Yue County Master had never parted ways.

  The blue phoenix pulled a celestial chariot, flying swiftly and arriving at the Prince of Yan's mansion.

  "Go." Yu Chi Xi Yue stepped down from the immortal carriage.

  Ji Ning also brought Bai Shuizhe down from the Xianluo and entered the Wangfu with Wei Chi Xiyue.

  "Senior, Ji Ning and Xi Yue County Master have both entered Yan Wang Fu." The scout immediately went to report.

  "What? Entering the Wang Fu? Ji Ning entered the Yan Wang Fu?" The Floating Cloud Immortal dared not believe, "Go and keep watch again, I won't believe he won't come out. As soon as he comes out, immediately report back."

  "Yes." The scout went back to staring again.

  The Yanwang Fu occupies a vast area of land but is relatively deserted.

  Because most princes usually have many close relatives, but Prince Yan's only relative is 'Xi Yue Princess', making the Wang Fu very quiet and deserted. However, since Prince Yan has just become a Tian Xian, it is believed that after thousands or tens of thousands of years, this Prince Yan Fu will become extremely lively.

  "The Wang Fu is very large." Xi Yue Gunzhu smiled and said, "Many places are uninhabited. Later, I'll accompany you to carefully choose a good one."

  "It's said that settling in the capital of Dashu is difficult, ordinary cultivators can't afford to live here." Ji Ning smiled and said, "I didn't expect that I, Ji Ning, could casually choose a place, it seems my luck is really good."

  The county master of Xiyue also smiled.

  Two people walked along the road, chatting and laughing.

  The two female attendants who followed beside her were surprised, as their young mistress was extremely reclusive and rarely had friends to talk to. Even if there were a few people she could talk to, they were all women, and chatting with a young man so happily... They had never seen it before.

  "Bring Qingning here to me." A voice echoed in Xiyue's mind.

  "Go." said Xi Yue County Master, "My grandfather wants to see you."

  "Does Emperor Yan want to see me?" Ji Ning felt a wave of tension. He knew that Emperor Yan was not an enemy, but after all, the other party was a Heavenly Immortal! Ji Ning had never seen the Heavenly Ancestor before.

  Perhaps the Cui Furen seen in the underworld at that time was a heavenly immortal or an even more powerful existence, but at that time Ji Ning was just a mortal soul, and Cui Furen had completely restrained his aura, Ji Ning's consciousness couldn't sense 'Cui Furen is how strong'.

  It's different now.

  Ji Ning is now also a cultivator, and his divine soul is comparable to that of a Loose Immortal or a True Immortal, allowing him to even more clearly understand the power of a Heavenly Immortal.

  "Let's go." Xiyue County Master smiled and pulled Ji Ning's hand.

  "Pulling hands?" The two female soldiers behind her stared with wide eyes "Does the young lady like Ji Ning?"

  They were both personal maids, although shocked, they couldn't possibly reveal what they saw, as every personal attendant had to take a heavenly oath.

  Very soon.

  The Marquise of Xiyue brought Ji Ning to a elegant mountain peak, the Yanwang Fu occupied thousands of miles, and naturally there were some continuous mountains inside, even with rivers and lakes.

  "This Guantian Mountain is Grandfather's favorite place to come." said Xiyue Junzhu "At the same time, it also prohibits servants from climbing the mountain, usually only I can climb the mountain."

  "Oh?" Ji Ning nodded.

  Xiao Qing and Bai Shu had never come up from under the mountain. After all, Yan Wang only wanted to see Ji Ning.

  At the top of the mountain, a crooked old tree grows, next to which there is a pavilion. Inside the pavilion, there is a table and a stool, with one person sitting alone. It's a tall and majestic man wearing a long black robe, silently drinking wine by himself, gazing out at the endless scenery.

  At this moment, heaven, earth and man are as one.

  "Grandfather!" The voice of Xi Yue County Master broke the silence.

  The man finally stood up and turned around to look over here.

  He was about eight feet tall, with thick and dark eyebrows that were almost excessive, and the eyes under them were staring at Ji Ning.

  Ji Ning was also looking at this Crown Prince Yan.

  Wow!

  Everything around him disappeared, and Ji Ning only felt the endless evil energy, the overwhelming evil energy that even made Ji Ning's heart skip a beat. However, Ji Ning's soul was strong, his Dao heart was firm, and his sword soul was stable, so he quickly broke free from this state. Ji Ning looked at the man in front of him: "What a Yan Wang, he didn't even intentionally attack me, but just by revealing the evil energy contained within his cultivation, I almost got lost."

  "His aunt said that his grandfather's qualifications were ordinary, and he didn't even get the attention of the Great Xia royal family. However, his grandfather dared to use demonic magic to temper himself, making his heart demon even more terrifying... This is a very crazy guy, precisely because of his craziness, with ordinary qualifications, he can still become a heavenly immortal." Ji Ning was well aware that in the entire Great Xia dynasty, it took millions of years for a heavenly immortal to appear.

  Yan Wang's innate talent is considered average among Earthly Immortals, but he can become a Heavenly Immortal.

  There is indeed something terrifying about him.

  Let's not mention anything else, just the murderous aura contained in his eyes... Ji Ning understood that this person in front of him must have had a very terrifying experience, otherwise the murderous aura wouldn't be so strong.

  "Ji Ning has seen Yan Wang." Ji Ning respectfully performed a grand bow.

  "Not bad, you've cultivated for thirty years and your Dao heart isn't affected by my evil energy. You were able to shake it off instantly." Yan Wang nodded slightly and smiled calmly, "Impressive, impressive."

  "Xī yuè jùn zhǔ jīng yà: 'wài gōng, nǐ kuā tā liǎng cì lì hài? wǒ cóng lái méi jiàn guò nǐ zhème kuā rén ne.'"

  Translation:

  "The County Master of Xi Yue was astonished: 'Grandfather, you praised him twice as being formidable? I've never seen you praise someone like this before.'"

  "Alas, Moon, didn't you know your grandfather's nickname for me?" Yan Wang revealed a hint of complacency.

  "Are you referring to King Yan?" Xixue asked.

  Ji Ning's face showed a look of confusion.

  "It's Yan Wang of the Underworld Yan Wang!" Xi Yue explained, "I don't know how Grandfather got this nickname either."

  "It's precisely because I rose to the position of Tian Xian from slaughter, precisely because my killing aura is strong enough. Otherwise, how could I be called Yan Wang?" Yan Wang said with a pleased smile, in front of his only granddaughter, he was still like an ordinary person, smiling when he should, being pleased when he should, and not being happy when he shouldn't.

  Yan Wang looked at Ji Ning and said, "So you can resist my evil energy, that's impressive."

  "I know you and Xi Yue are cousins." Yan Wang nodded, "I also know that you both have a grudge against the Shao Yan family, but they are deeply rooted and not easily dealt with. Xi Yue hasn't even publicly revealed her true surname. However, Ji Ning, you seem to be on good terms with the Shao Yan family, so it's best if you're still careful."

  Ji Ning nodded: "I understand."

  "Grandfather!" Xī Yuè Junzhu said repeatedly, "Didn't you say that Xiǎo Yán Shì's 'Mystical Ancestor' was extremely doting on Xiǎo Yán Nóng and would definitely avenge him?"

  "En, I've said it before." Yan Wang nodded, "That Xuanji Old Ancestor is indeed an unreasonable person. Although I'm crazy, I still speak reason. But he doesn't speak reason, so we must be careful."

  "Isn't there a Golden Armor Guard under your command? Allocate one unit to my younger brother." Princess Xi Yue said repeatedly.

  Ji Ning was taken aback.

  My older cousin didn't say anything about it beforehand at all.

  "Golden Armor Imperial Guard?" Emperor Yan furrowed his brow "Xi Yue, the Golden Armor Imperial Guard is the imperial guard of our Great Xia royal family. Generally, only those with imperial status can wear the imperial guard insignia. You are a princess, so it's fine that you have some guards... Ji Ning also has imperial guards..."

  "Grandfather!" Zi Yue hurriedly said, "The Emperor has bestowed the Golden Armor Imperial Guard upon you, isn't it up to you to arrange? I'm not asking for all of the Golden Armor Imperial Guard to protect my brother, just a small squad. The laws of the Great Xia imperial family don't stipulate that the Golden Armor Imperial Guard can only protect the imperial family."

  King Yan shook his head and smiled helplessly.

  Indeed.

  The Grand Xia's laws cannot stipulate that the Golden Armor Imperial Guards can only protect the imperial family, after all, there are also some high-ranking officials under the Emperor's command, or some powerful lone rangers who need to be won over. The Emperor will also arrange for some Golden Armor Imperial Guards to follow them as a show of favor and grace.

  "Alright." Yan Wang nodded "I'll arrange a small team of Golden Armor Imperial Guards. At most, there will be some whispers behind our backs."

  "Thank you, Grandfather, you're the best." Xi Yue County Master hugged Yan Wang's arm, being very affectionate.

  "Hahaha." King Yan laughed.

  It was only in front of his granddaughter that he could feel the warmth of kinship.

  In front of others, he is still the legendary 'Yan Wang'.

  "You still haven't thanked my grandfather." Xī Yuè Junzhu said, looking at Ji Ning.

  "Thank you, King." Ji Ning said repeatedly.

  "En." King Yan nodded and smiled, "Go ahead, you're also very restrained here. Tell Xi Yue to arrange a good place for your younger brother. The royal mansion is big, let him choose a place he likes to live in. In this royal mansion, no one dares to intrude."

  "Grandpa, I'll be off first." Xi Yue immediately pulled Ji Ning along and soon they descended from the mountain.

  Yan Wang watched Xi Yue and Ji Ning go down the mountain, nodding slightly: "Xi Yue is obviously much happier now, she has been oppressed by hatred in her heart for too long, after all, it's familial love that can make her happy again."

  Yan Wang immediately turned around and sat down again, sitting alone, holding his wine cup, looking at this vast expanse of heaven and earth.

  On a patch of weeds in front of a lake, Ji Ning nodded: "It's settled then, I'll live here."

  "What's this?" Xi Yue County Master exclaimed, "But isn't this just a wasteland? There aren't any dwellings here at all. Our royal residence has plenty of rooms, why would you live in this wilderness?"

  "Look."

  Ji Ning waved his hand.

  Wow.

  Suddenly a magnificent and beautiful fairy mansion appeared, with pavilions, towers, and carved beams, as if made of gold and jade, surrounded by the aura of heaven and earth.

  "What a wonderful immortal mansion." Xī Yuè Jùnzhǔ was amazed, "This immortal mansion can actually be carried with one's body, its value must be extraordinary."

  "Hmm, this immortal mansion can only be refined and carried with me if it has a value of at least 100 million yuan." Ji Ning said. In fact, this immortal mansion was given to Ji Ning by Huang Mao Da Xiong for free, although it was a gift, Ji Ning absolutely could not sell it.

  Inside this mansion worth millions of yuan, there is an area hidden in the water mansion.

  Xian Fu Cang Shui Fu.

  Internally prohibited again and again... absolutely safe and unparalleled.

  "A million jin of yuan liquid? That's impressive." Xishuang County Master praised, "Is it also from Shaoyan Nong?"

  "No, it was something I stumbled upon once," said Ji Ning.

  "I told you, being able to kill Shi Yan Nong and a Yuan Shen-level demon god, you must have had a great adventure." Xī Yuè Jùnzhǔ smiled, "Alright, you go rest first, I'll prepare dinner for tonight, come over then."

  "Good." Ji Ning nodded.

  "Get some rest, you haven't had a good rest since arriving in Dashawangdu." Xiyue Junzhu immediately left with two female soldier attendants.

  Ji Ning then led Bai Shu and Xiao Qing into his own immortal mansion.
