Rebirth of the Peak Young Master-Chapter 412: Feeling Scared
Chapter 412: Chapter 412: Feeling Scared
"I cannot stand seeing him so arrogant," Zou Xiaoqin snorted.
"A little patience avoids disrupting greater plans!"
Uncle Wu smiled and said, "Besides, your father is about to arrive."
After hearing this, Zou Xiaoqin nodded and stopped paying attention to Yang Tian.
Of course, soon she would have the time to deal with it herself.
Because as we approached the center of the Pacific Ocean, powerful figures like former Priest Kupei began to appear one after another.
They could traverse tranquil seas.
Or, like insects, command monsters.
More importantly, they floated directly on the ocean surface, as if gliding atop the water itself.
Each of their breaths was so intense that even Zou Xiaoqin’s companions felt fear.
Even Uncle Wu recognized many among them. Globally, Decepticon remained at the top of Dante’s reward list, making them seem untouchable.
It was feared that the displeasure of any one of them would be disastrous. Zou Xiaoqin and her crew could very well be drowned.
Yet, relying on the reputation Guan Pengzun brought and maintaining caution and respect in case of mishap, they progressed safely and uneventfully, devoid of surprises or danger.
Thus, another half-day’s journey passed.
The cruise ship finally docked by an isolated, dense island.
At this moment, a red glow reflected upon the nearby ocean and then approached them—it turned out to be a middle-aged man with red hair and a beard.
"Dad!"
Seeing the man, Zou Xiaoqin was delighted and rushed to embrace him.
The man doted on Zou Xiaoqin as well, stroking her hair and laughing, "You little girl, refusing to heed me, you insisted on coming! Dragging Uncle Li Da and the group along for the fifth journey. Are you traveling?"
"People just want to see more!" Zou Xiaoqin pouted slightly, replying coyly.
Beside them, Uncle Wu and the others promptly came forward, saying, "Indeed! Teacher, Miss Xiao Qin pursuing knowledge is truly commendable."
"Commendable?"
Hearing Wu Shu’s words, the man suppressed his laughter and scoffed, "Xiao Qin doesn’t understand, and neither does Old Five."
"Mr. Yang, it seems they harbor hostility toward us!"
Alice, standing on the ship and noticing the unhidden gazes of Zou Xiang and the others, scoffed coldly.
Yet Yang Tian merely nodded faintly before heading straight toward the island’s center.
For Yang Tian, his journey had a singular purpose: to witness whether the legendary Three Immortals Strong, Bright Moon Venerable of medieval renown, truly possessed the vast collection of treasures introduced by David.
As for everything else, they were outside Yang Tian’s sphere of concern, or simply beneath his notice.
Because he possessed such power, such qualifications!
Because he was Yang Tian of World Myth!
He moved swiftly.
With his mind inspired, Yang Tian arrived outside a cave at the island’s center.
At this point, the cave was surrounded by strong individuals from around the world, practitioners wielding forces from various factions, and those devoted to cultivation.
They scattered in various directions—while everyone had immense desire for the cave before them, none dared to be the first to enter.
After all, the men here were formidable, and at a glance, no ordinary power stood a chance.
It was said that true Innate power here was no more than a dog.
No one dared to step forward first, fearing hostility from the other strong individuals or even outright attacks.
As they stole glances at the monument ahead, none were willing to be such a pioneer.
Therefore, for a time, the situation remained at a stalemate.
As for Zou Xiaoqin and her group, though they had arrived earlier than Yang Tian, their strength rendered them insignificant here. They could only survey from a distance, not daring to advance.
Only Zou Xiaoqin’s father, the legendary Torch Priest Zou Xiang, stood at the forefront, frowning at the current situation.
Who knows how long the stalemate lasted.
Zou Xiaoqin, who had crossed paths with Yang Tian at sea and had once mentioned the statue, suddenly spoke boldly: "Gentlemen, are we really going to stand here forever?"
"What is your relationship with Jiajia and Kunpeng?"
From the inner circle, a frail yet ancient Kunpeng let out a peculiar laugh and said slowly.
Evidently, to dare speak directly with the legendary Saint Kunpeng, the old man was no ordinary figure; he too was a legendary, frail but powerful figure!
Philippines Master, Master Kumu?
Kunpeng Venerable, upon hearing the old man’s words, immediately snorted, "Of course, there is a solution, but it depends on whether this old man is willing to die!"
"Willing to die?"
The old, withered Kumu laughed heartily and said, "Jiajia! Hee Kunpeng, you and I may not understand, but with so many peers here, and such strength present, wouldn’t your bold stance ignite all opposing flames? If you have any ideas, why not proclaim them loudly for all to debate!"
With this, all the powerful legends within the inner circle immediately turned their gaze to Kunpeng.
Because everyone acknowledged the truth in the old man’s words—they were all strong legends.
As for those surrounding them, they were insignificant and incompatible with their might.
These strong men came here merely to speculate if they could fish treasures from troubled waters.
Kunpeng Venerable also refocused the issue onto himself.
Having made the proposition, he responded unhurriedly, "This fragmented Immortal monument only opens once every century. Yet the cave itself is sealed with many restrictions. If we continue to waste time, we will gain nothing. However, since mutual fear binds us, it shouldn’t deter us. Let’s break the restrictions together and enter the cave, only retreating when treasures have been identified."
With this statement, many nodded slightly.
It seemed like a reasonable plan, yet Kumu the old man smiled and said mockingly, "A clever plan, Kunpeng—a joint effort to break the seal and explore together. But when treasures appear, could you ally with Master Zou and crush others one by one?"
Allying with Master Zou?
Upon hearing this, those prepared to endorse Kunpeng Venerable’s proposal frowned deeply.
Many of them had encountered Zou Xiaoqin’s cruise earlier and seen Uncle Peng Pengzun walking with their branded insignia in hand!
They suspected the pair must have secretly reached some tacit agreement.
If these two were to act in concert, the others would lack cohesion—indeed, the outcome might follow Kumu’s grim suggestion, crushed one by one!
Both Zhu Peng Zun and Zou Xiang showed subtle yet discernible reactions to Kumu the old man’s words.
The old man had clearly pinpointed their presumed alliance, united in their quest to explore the fairy ruins.
If treasures were unearthed...
All eyes turned to Yang Tian, still silent, staring intently toward the inner circle.
The legendary figures within the circle frowned slightly, sensing intrigue.
"Haha! Amidst all our deliberation, a bold rat has ventured in."
Kumu chuckled coldly, glaring at Yang Tian. "Rat, would you leave on your own, or shall we seniors throw you out?"
Hearing this, the others sneered, their faces filled with amusement as they stared at Yang Tian.
Only Kunpeng Venerable reacted suddenly to Yang Tian’s presence, questioning Zou Xiang, "Isn’t that the child accompanying your daughter here?" freewēbnoveℓ.com
