Chapter 287: A Standoff, The Grand Marshal of Feiyun Prefecture, Born Extraordinary
I do look pretty good...
Li Yanchu kept his composure. “Master, you flatter me.”
He simply took it as a compliment.
However, Master Zhisheng gave a cold snort. “I heard you declared last night that you would climb Qingfeng Ridge alone to slay the Mountain Lord, without needing our assistance. You must then be a true grand adept with the power to subdue dragons and tame tigers. I wonder, where might this Mountain Lord be now?”
Hearing this, Wang Wen frowned. At this time, the tension was thick.
Li Yanchu said with a smile, “The Mountain Lord has already been slain by me, together with all the heterodox followers under him, they’ve all been eradicated!”
Wang Wen turned his head, delight and surprise flashing across his face as he looked at Li Yanchu. “Daoist Master Li, is this true?”
Li Yanchu nodded slightly. “Naturally. The Mountain Lord has been executed, and Qingfeng Ridge’s calamity removed. I came especially to bid farewell.”
Wang Wen was overjoyed, and he couldn't help glancing at the young colonel behind him. That colonel’s face, too, was full of astonishment.
That was the Mountain Lord. And just like that... he was dead!?
Master Zhisheng sneered. “Young men are indeed arrogant and overbearing. You just learned a little trifling Daoist art, yet you dare to boast wildly? That Mountain Lord was said to possess five hundred years of cultivation. How could the likes of you have dealt with him? Daoist Master Li, did you perhaps go up the mountain for a nap, and return only to deceive us?”
Those words were harsh.
