Chapter 489: Intimidation, Strange Occurrences
Chapter 489: Intimidation, Strange Occurrences
"Zhao Feng, don't!"
As the sword energy shot out, another startled cry rang out.
But it was too late; the sharp sword energy had already reached Lu Qing's front in the blink of an eye.
However, it seemed to avoid harming Xiao Yan, as the sword energy didn't aim for her vital points but instead slashed towards her arm.
In the midst of the exclamations, the sword energy was about to pierce Lu Qing's body.
Suddenly, a slender figure appeared in front of Lu Qing, and with a gentle flick of its tail, it shattered the sword energy into pieces.
Then, with even greater speed than the sword energy, the figure instantly reached the young man who had unleashed the sword energy.
An incredibly terrifying aura enveloped him, freezing his heart and soul.
Just as the furious Five-Color Winged Snake was about to completely annihilate the daring fellow who had harmed its master...
Lu Qing's calm voice sounded, "Five Elements, return."
The Five-Color Winged Snake's body hesitated. It wanted to slay the arrogant youngster before it, but its master's command was absolute.
In the end, it could only give the youngster a cold glance before returning to Lu Qing's side and suppressing its aura.
However, the might that the Five-Color Winged Snake had just displayed had already imprinted itself upon the young man's mind.
Even after Five Elements returned, his eyes remained filled with fear.
His body stiffened, and his hands trembled.
Eventually, he couldn't even hold the sword in his hand steady, and it clattered to the ground.
At this moment, Lu Qing had already released Xiao Yan.
He glanced over there and saw several youths and young women around his age standing at the courtyard entrance.
Their faces were filled with shock, especially when they looked at the Five-Color Winged Snake. Their eyes widened as if they were seeing a monster, filled with disbelief.
Evidently, they had been completely intimidated by the aura the Five Elements had just exuded.
Moreover, they never expected that this little snake, which had always been by Xiao Yan's side and slept most of the time, could emit such a terrifying might.
Could it be that this little snake had already reached the Foundation Establishment Realm?
"Xiao Yan, are these your friends?" Lu Qing asked.
Xiao Yan wiped away her tears and said with a hint of embarrassment, "Yes, they are friends I met during my recent travels."
Then, she turned to the others and said, "Zhao Shixiong, you've misunderstood. He's not a bad person; he's my brother."
Brother?
The group slowly regained their senses, only to be startled again.
They finally noticed that Lu Qing and Xiao Yan did indeed bear some resemblance in their facial features.
The group immediately felt awkward.
They had interrupted a reunion between siblings, appearing at an inopportune moment and even attacking.
This was more than just a matter of being impolite; it was a significant breach of etiquette.
Especially the young man who had attacked, wishing he could find a hole to crawl into.
Seeing their embarrassment, Lu Qing smiled.
He spoke in a gentle tone, "My name is Chen Qing. I've met you all, young heroes, and I'm grateful for your care of my younger sister during these days."
From the messages Xiao Yan had sent, Lu Qing already knew that she had been using the alias "Chen Yan" during her travels.
So, he decided to use the alias "Chen Qing" as well.
After all, his real name was quite eye-catching.
Ordinary cultivators might not know it, but many major sects had likely learned his true name.
Even Xiao Yan's name might have caught the attention of many.
That was why Xiao Yan had used an alias when she went out.
As for the surname "Chen" she adopted, it was taken from her master's surname, so it wasn't a random change.
"So, you're Xiao Yan Shimei's older brother. I'm Mu Tian, and these are Wu Wenyuan, Qin Wushe, and Zhao Feng."
Seeing that Lu Qing didn't seem to mind the previous incident, everyone heaved a sigh of relief.
The leader of the group, a youth with a steady appearance, introduced everyone to Lu Qing.
"Greetings, Senior Brother Chen."
The other three bowed to Lu Qing in greeting.
Especially Zhao Feng, whose face turned red as he apologized, "Senior Brother Chen, I'm sorry. Just now, I didn't mean to... I thought you were..."
Lu Qing smiled, "It's fine. You were just worried about Little Yan, right?"
Hearing that Lu Qing didn't blame them, the group finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Although in their perception, Lu Qing was only at the Greater stage of the Xiantian Realm.
But at this moment, they didn't dare treat him as an ordinary Xiantian Realm cultivator.
After all, the terrifying aura that erupted from Wu Xing just now was still imprinted on their minds.
To be able to stop such a formidable spiritual pet, he couldn't be an ordinary person.
Thinking of this, the group glanced subtly at the Five-Color Winged Snake that was fawning over Lu Qing, and at Xiao Li, who was curled up in Lu Qing's embrace.
They were familiar with Little Yan's two spiritual pets.
The latest book in the 69 Book Bar was about to be released!
After all, they had seen them every day for the past few months of their journey.
However, these two spiritual pets of Little Yan were usually very aloof.
Especially the black little beast, who, aside from Little Yan, ignored everyone else.
Even after knowing each other for several months, not a single person could touch them.
Little Yan explained that these two spiritual pets were shy and didn't like strangers touching them.
So, everyone was a bit surprised but didn't pay it much mind.
After all, in their perception, these two spiritual pets weren't particularly powerful, except for having a stronger spiritual nature, they didn't have any extraordinary traits.
They only saw Little Yan bring these two pets along to relieve boredom during her outdoor training.
This led everyone to speculate that she might be the young mistress of some top-tier aristocratic family.
Who would have thought that this unassuming little snake, which curled up and slept in Little Yan's hood all day, could emit such a terrifying aura.
When Wu Xing's aura erupted earlier, they genuinely thought they were about to die.
Even now, they understood why Wu Xing usually ignored them.
This wasn't about being shy; it was because the other party was a powerful spiritual beast whose strength far surpassed theirs.
Such a being would never pay them any mind.
"Senior Brother Mu, did you come here to look for me for something?" Little Yan suddenly asked at this moment.
"Little Yan, don't you remember? Today, we're going to Qiu Jia Village to investigate the mysterious disappearances of their villagers," said Qin Wushe, the only female among the four.
"Oh, I almost forgot about this!" Little Yan exclaimed.
"What's this about villagers disappearing?" Lu Qing asked.
