Chapter 236: Chapter 236 I’m Here to Take Him Home, Make Way
Xu You looked at the suddenly silent Ye An with a frown.
"What exactly do you want to say?"
Ye An shook his head, offering no further explanation. He simply said, "I will definitely attend the Lianglei Conference."
"You can try to stop me."
With that, he took a step forward, intending to pass by Xu You. Xu You's eyes narrowed.
At the moment Ye An thought there might be a clash of wills, a figure appeared from the corner of the training ground's entrance. The newcomer spoke in a carefree tone, "Why waste words with him?"
Ye An glanced up, frowning.
The person in front of him wore gold-rimmed round glasses, had his black hair slicked back, and looked like a refined scoundrel. However, his expression was somewhat sinister and arrogant, with a disdainful smile on his face.
He stared at Ye An and said, "You're not leaving through this door today."
"Unless you give up attending the Lianglei Conference."
Xu You did not release any aura, but the newcomer's aura instantly erupted. A vast, dark energy rose, making Ye An feel as if he was in hell.
He stood in the center of hell, looked down upon by the ruler of this infernal realm who seemed to control life and death.
Ye An maintained a neutral expression, quickly making comparisons in his mind.
Very strong—almost reminiscent of the feeling he had when first facing the Dark Lord.
At this moment, Xu You furrowed her brows and said, "Brother, why are you here?"
Xu Zhiyue glanced at her and said, "Your personality is too soft."
"You can't get things done."
"So I'm here."
He seemed restless, casually grabbing a chair and sitting down. He then crossed his legs and rapidly continued, "The only reason you want to attend the Lianglei Conference is for those two Hundred Dao Stones." "Look, I won't bully you."
"If you refuse, I'll immediately give you a Ten Dao Stone."
After speaking, he glanced at Ye An impatiently.
Ye An responded calmly, "Too little. One Wan Dao Stone, and I might consider not going."
Xu Zhiyue replied without hesitation, "Dream on."
Then he frowned and said, "How can there be someone as ungrateful as you in this world?"
"We all know that you are the source of fortune."
"So you are a treasure for the human race, and we can protect you very well."
"Just focus on cultivating at home. Whatever resources you need, we will provide."
"Who can you defeat in the Divine Race's Lianglei Conference?"
"If you die or lose, everything will be over!"
Hearing this, Ye An suddenly smiled and said, "How weak."
"What?" Xu Zhiyue was puzzled.
Ye An calmly said, "What did you just say?"
"I am the source of fortune, and if I die, everything will be over."
"Does that mean you can't manage without me?"
"Can the vast human race do without you, without them, but not without me?"
"What use are you to them?"
As he spoke, he suddenly took out a Star Platform, seemingly sending some message, and said, "Actually, I don't quite understand what the source of fortune is."
"I just can't understand this kind of weak thinking of yours."
"Relying on others for everything and never daring to rely on yourself."
"Is it because you're not strong enough?"
This statement left Xu Zhiyue and Xu You dumbfounded.
Their expressions turned stiff.
Ye An had made it clear, and his logic was flawless.
The reason everyone was afraid to let Ye An compete was because they cared about his life or death? No, it was because his life and death were tied to the rise and fall of the human race.
This idea was deeply rooted in the minds of these noble families, as stated by the High Domain Lord and the Grand Marshal.
Ye An's words shattered this concept directly.
Without me, you can't manage?
Without the source of fortune, the human race would be finished?
Then what use are you?
Xu Zhiyue was silent for a few seconds before, instead of getting angry, he stood up and saidsaid calmly:"Interesting."
"Very interesting."
"I like what you just said, and it did indeed persuade me."
"Admitting your indispensability is admitting my own dispensability."
"It's indeed laughable."
"But to be honest, I don't think you're that important. The human race can survive without you."
Suddenly, Xu Zhiyue's voice paused. He said, "But the human race cannot lose."
"Is that your strength?"
He pointed at the pressure wall behind Ye An and shook his head. "Too weak."
"If you want to participate in the Lianglei Conference..."
"I or my sister will take on anyone you choose. If you can get past me, I won't stop you."
"If you can't, why wouldn't I go myself?"
Xu Zhiyue stood up, staring straight at Ye An.
The two were at a standoff.
After a few seconds, Xu Zhiyue said, "Aren't you a strong person? What are you hesitating for?"
Ye An replied coldly, "I won't go all out against you."
"What?" Xu Zhiyue was surprised.
Ye An explained, "Because I'm afraid I might kill you."
Hearing this, Xu Zhiyue was stunned for a moment before he couldn't help but laugh, "Are you crazy?"
As he spoke, his gaze became sharp, focusing on Ye An. "Strength isn't just talk."
"Let's do it here. If I break anything, I'll compensate."
With that, Xu Zhiyue expressionlessly removed his glasses, his disheveled long hair flying wildly. He stared at Ye An with a sinister smile, then tilted his head.
Suddenly.
Xu Zhiyue's eyes emitted black light, shooting directly at Ye An!
"Whoosh!"
Two streams of black light crossed paths in mid-air, merging into a thicker black beam, heading straight for Ye An's forehead.
Ye An, however, remained unmoved and did not make any attempt to defend.
Xu Zhiyue's eyes narrowed.
What's this?
No defense?
Then die!
The black beam shot out, about to hit Ye An's forehead.
But at that moment!
Xu You suddenly looked back, her expression changing slightly!
Outside the training ground, a cool-looking woman dressed in blue raised her hand slightly.
In just a moment.
The entire training ground turned into an icy wasteland.
The explosive black light was instantly frozen!
Xu Zhiyue's eyes darkened, and he gritted his teeth as he turned to Ji Qing and said, "What does this mean?"
Then he turned back to Ye An and said, "Calling for a woman when you can't win?"
Ye An did not back down and said, "What, can you beat this woman?"
"You shameless bastard!" Xu Zhiyue said coldly.
"Are you even a man?"
Ye An replied said calmly:"I said, if I go all out, I'd definitely be stronger than you, but I might also kill you."
"So I won't fight you."
"But I will definitely participate in the conference."
"What nonsense!" Xu Zhiyue shouted angrily and turned to Ji Qing. "Are you sure you want to protect him?"
"We're not discussing the source of fortune."
"The participants in the Lianglei Conference represent the face of each race!"
"Can this pretty boy represent the human race's face?!"
Facing Xu Zhiyue's angry questioning.
Ji Qing's eyes turned cold, frost rising in her pupils.
Xu Zhiyue's body began to slowly freeze, and he said gloomily, "What do you mean?"
Ji Qing softly said, "I don't like people yelling at me."
"I'm just here to take him home. Make way."
