Douluo's Blue Silver Family

Chapter 320 A Close Call

Ye Fan and Ji Ziyue hurriedly ran away, but the next day they encountered a sixteen or seventeen-year-old boy who looked thin and frail.

However, the boy's eyes were incredibly bright, and his appearance was very handsome, like a cute little boy.

However, Ye Fan was unaware of this man's background and stepped forward with feigned seriousness, asking, "Young man, do you know where this place is?"

"Qixia Mountain Range, the territory of the Jin Kingdom," the young man replied with a smile.

Ye Fan smiled and asked again, "Judging from your refined appearance and natural grace, young man, you must be a cultivator!"

The boy nodded and said, "Yes."

Behind Ye Fan, Ji Ziyue appeared quite differently, her face pale and her voice trembling as she said, "Little brat, come back quickly, it's dangerous!"

Upon hearing Ji Ziyue's words, Ye Fan knew something was wrong and quickly retreated using the incomplete Xingzi Secret Technique.

When he arrived at Ji Ziyue's side, seeing the fear on her face, he knew he was in trouble again. He immediately felt a headache coming on. How unlucky he was to run into her here.

At this moment, Ji Ziyue mustered her courage, stepped forward, and said, "King Peacock, you are a peerless powerhouse renowned throughout the Eastern Wilderness, looking down upon the world. Please do not kill innocent people indiscriminately. Let him go. This matter has nothing to do with him. I will go with you."

"What? You're the Peacock King? How is that possible?" Ye Fan was shocked and couldn't believe it when he heard Ji Ziyue say that the boy was the Peacock King.

At this moment, Ye Fan could hardly believe his eyes. He never expected that the young man in front of him was actually the Peacock King.

But the Peacock King in Ye Fan's mind was not like that at all; he should be as majestic as a mountain, with an imposing aura.

However, the image that the Peacock King now revealed gave Ye Fan a feeling like a clear spring, a pure white lotus flower, or a refreshing breeze. The difference between the two was simply too great.

"Oh, so what do you think I should be like?" Peacock King asked Ye Fan with great interest.

Ye Fan said, "Based on your past deeds, I think you should be the kind of person who exudes boundless domineering power with a wave of your hand, as majestic as a mountain, rather than acting like a weak scholar like you do now."

Moreover, Ye Fan felt a chill run down his spine. Just moments ago, he was on friendly terms with the Peacock King, but the next second he realized how terrifying the other party was.

Upon hearing Ye Fan's words, the Peacock King laughed and said, "You're quite eloquent, but unfortunately, this is just how I am. Aren't you disappointed?"

Ye Fan quickly shook his head and said, "Actually, this is good too. It makes you look more elegant, more refined, more approachable, and more..."

Ye Fan poured out all the good things he wanted to say, but he was interrupted by the Peacock King before he could finish.

"Alright, you don't need to keep saying nice things," the Peacock King interrupted Ye Fan.

Ye Fan didn't want to do this either, but he had no choice. He was too weak to defeat the Peacock King, so he could only resort to the "Guodao" supernatural power.

It must be said that Ye Fan is thick-skinned and flexible. He knows when to back down and when to back down, rather than stubbornly confronting the enemy head-on, which would only lead to his quicker demise.

Ye Fan asked cautiously, "Then why did Senior Peacock King stop us?"

The Peacock King looked at Ye Fan and said, "I came for you."

Ye Fan was taken aback and asked with a puzzled look, "You came for me, but I don't know you before, senior?"

Ji Ziyue's eyes widened in surprise as she asked, "Didn't you come here to kill me?"

"The Azure Emperor's Sacred Heart." The Peacock King didn't give Ji Ziyue a chance, but instead looked calmly at Ye Fan and said.

It's quite a coincidence that Ye Fan and the Azure Emperor's Sacred Heart are destined to meet. Although the Azure Emperor's Sacred Heart was initially obtained by Yuan Changqing, who then snatched it away.

Ye Fan also obtained a considerable amount of Azure Emperor's Holy Blood from Yuan Changqing, which greatly improved his strength.

However, after Ye Fan went out alone, he encountered Duan De and was tricked by him.

In order to obtain the Blood of the Azure Emperor, Duan De sold Ye Fan to Yan Ruyu, a descendant of the Azure Emperor. When the Blood of the Azure Emperor returned to Yan Ruyu's hands, she was furious.

The Azure Emperor's Sacred Heart, once returned to his hands, was utterly withered and weak, requiring a cauldron to nourish it.

As a result, Ye Fan became the target, and Duan De was the one who carried out the attack, which caused Ye Fan to suffer a major setback at Duan De's hands.

Yan Ruyu then took Ye Fan directly to a small secret realm, where the Azure Emperor's Sacred Heart settled in Ye Fan's Sea of ​​Bitterness.

Ye Fan also developed a romantic relationship with Yan Ruyu, but later Yan Ruyu was hunted down, so she had no choice but to let Ye Fan leave alone.

And so, Ye Fan parted ways with Yan Ruyu and the others, embarking on another solo journey.

Fortunately, there was a bronze fragment in Ye Fan's Sea of ​​Bitterness, which seemed to suppress the Azure Emperor's Sacred Heart, so it did not harm Ye Fan at all, but instead brought some benefits.

In the end, the Azure Emperor's Sacred Heart suffered again, and Ye Fan also took advantage of it. The Azure Emperor's Sacred Heart became afraid and left Ye Fan on its own, returning to Yan Ruyu's hands once more.

Upon hearing "Azure Emperor's Sacred Heart," Ye Fan's head began to ache again. However, with the situation pressing, he could only bite the bullet and say, "It...it just flew away. Do you believe me, Senior?"

However, the Peacock King's reaction was beyond Ye Fan's expectations; he actually nodded.

Ye Fan was startled again and said, "You still believe me?"

"I believe you, because I saw it myself. The Azure Emperor's Sacred Heart is now in the hands of the Azure Emperor's descendants." As if all of this were perfectly natural, the Peacock King really didn't play by the rules, leaving Ye Fan completely stunned.

Finally, Ye Fan couldn't help but ask again, "Senior, now that the Azure Emperor's Sacred Heart has returned to the Azure Emperor's descendants, why are you still looking for me?"

Immediately, the Peacock King laughed and said, "I just want to know why the Azure Emperor's Sacred Heart flew away on its own."

For some reason, Ye Fan felt a sense of fear when he looked at the Peacock King's smile.

Then, before Ye Fan could react, the Peacock King stared directly into Ye Fan's sea of ​​suffering, as if trying to see through the mist and understand everything within it.

Ye Fan didn't want to expose his secret, so he quickly used the incomplete "Xing" character secret technique taught by the old madman to try and dodge it.

Ye Fan is unaware that it is an incomplete version of the Xingzi Secret, and still thinks it is a profound footwork technique.

Seeing the footwork Ye Fan displayed, the Peacock King also suppressed his smile and revealed a rare solemn expression.

"Where did you learn that footwork technique you just used?"

Faced with the Peacock King's question, Ye Fan could only honestly answer, "It was passed down to me by the Mad Old Man; I learned it from him."

The Peacock King nodded and said, "It really is him. I just didn't expect him to pass it on to you."

Ye Fan then said, "Senior Peacock King, you should have met the Mad Old Man, right? He's currently at the Tai Xuan Sect."

Peacock King said with regret, "Unfortunately, I was too late. I didn't get to see the Mad Old Man. He left Tai Xuan Sect a few days ago and I don't know where he went."

Ye Fan also climbed up using the stick, and said with a smile, "Senior, since we're all acquaintances, please don't make things difficult for us. Let us leave."

The Peacock King was intrigued by Ye Fan's personality and said, "Releasing you isn't out of the question, but you can leave once you pass my test. How about it, want to give it a try?"

Ye Fan was taken aback again. He hadn't expected the Peacock King to have such a strange personality. But now that he had a chance to leave, he had to give it a try, just in case he succeeded.

Ye Fan nodded and asked, "Senior, what kind of test is it? It won't be too difficult, will it?"

"It's not difficult, come in now."

Then, with a casual flick of his wrist, the Peacock King turned the sky into night.

You should know that right now the sun should be shining brightly, but the Peacock King just casually made a move and turned it into night, which shows how terrifying his power is.

In this dark night, countless stars dot the sky, like gems embedded in the night, sparkling and beautiful.

"How about that? I'm not making things difficult for you, am I? As long as you get through this darkness, I'll let you leave," the Peacock King said to Ye Fan.

Ji Ziyue then exclaimed in shock, "This is an extraordinary phenomenon: stars shining in the blue sky."

Ye Fan was deeply shocked by what the Peacock King was doing. The stars in the dark night seemed to exert immense pressure, making it hard to breathe.

But now Ye Fan can only bear this pressure and move forward step by step with difficulty.

Fortunately, he withstood the pressure and finally got his reward, managing to walk out and pass the Peacock King's test.

Just then, Ji Ziyue seemed to have resigned herself to her fate, raised her head, and said, "He has passed the test, so you can let him go now. As for me, you can kill me or do whatever you want with me."

"Senior..." Ye Fan called out hurriedly.

The Peacock King waved his hand, interrupting Ye Fan's next words, and said, "Hehe, you do have some backbone. Little girl, I won't kill you. Your physique is quite good; it would be a pity to kill you."

"You won't kill me, really?" Ji Ziyue asked hurriedly.

The Peacock King added, "Although I won't kill you, I didn't say I would let you leave."

Immediately, Ji Ziyue's face fell, looking utterly dejected. It seemed she still couldn't escape the Peacock King.

Then the Peacock King continued, "I will take you away. You don't need to go back to the Ji family anymore. Just stay with the descendants of the Azure Emperor. You two can complement each other perfectly."

Just then, something unexpected happened. Petals floated down from the sky, crystal clear, and a road made of petals shot straight down from the horizon.

Looking at the newcomer, Ye Fan thought, "Is he here to rescue Ji Ziyue?"

Peacock King looked at the newcomer and went straight over. Ye Fan saw the two of them talking, but he couldn't hear anything.

It's unclear whether it was because they couldn't reach an agreement, but the Peacock King and that person started fighting. The battle between these two important figures felt like the sky itself was about to be shattered; it was truly terrifying.

"Another powerful figure!" Ye Fan exclaimed.

Ji Ziyue then came to Ye Fan's side and said, "This is a great human being, Nangong Zheng, the Great Immortal Nangong."

Ye Fan was also taken aback and said, "It's him! How did he end up here?"

"I don't know either."

At this moment, the aftershocks of the battle between the Peacock King and Nangong Zheng directly shattered a mountain peak. Seeing this, Ye Fan knew that he could no longer stay here, otherwise he and Ji Ziyue would suffer the same fate as that mountain peak.

So Ye Fan said again, "Let's quickly take advantage of their ongoing battle and quietly leave this place!"

"Um…"

After that, Ye Fan pulled Ji Ziyue away from there, while the Peacock King, who was fighting with Nangong Zheng, did not notice that the two had left.

However, even if they knew, they couldn't stop him. After all, Nangong Zheng was no weakling, and it was wishful thinking to think they could defeat him quickly.

Ye Fan and Ji Ziyue fled for an unknown distance before finally stopping and breathing a sigh of relief.

After all, the pressure from a powerful figure like the Peacock King was immense, but fortunately, he managed to escape in the end.
