Chapter 1591: Chapter 1584: A Double Reunion
"Are you a cultivator?" To calm Ah Yang, Cheng Ziang decided to try communicating with the other party first.
"So what?" The man in black raised his eyebrows, asking coldly.
"That’s right," Cheng Ziang raised his gun and aimed at him, speaking just as coldly, "I advise you to be honest. One shot from me and your Qitian will shatter."
"Star-shattering, huh..." The man in black squinted his eyes, indeed somewhat swayed.
"Just a mere Nine Streams after all." Regaining his composure, the man in black continued with a cold tone.
"Is that so?" Cheng Ziang confidently retorted.
Obviously, the man in black was intimidated by Cheng Ziang, standing still and not launching an attack immediately, thus confronting Cheng Ziang.
"Cheng Ziang..." At this moment, Cheng Ziang heard a female voice from behind him, and then he realized that there was a woman with him.
"Take care of the child." Cheng Ziang, eyeing the man in black, said without turning his head.
"Be careful. That guy is a Dual Dao Cultivator. With such a strong aura and being a Dual Dao Cultivator, in Hua State, it could only be him..." Ah Si’s voice trembled a bit as she spoke.
"Who?" Cheng Ziang asked.
"Huayu Ting, the rising star of the Huayu Family!" Ah Si said in a lowered voice.
"Huayu Ting!" Hearing this somewhat familiar name, Cheng Ziang was taken aback.
"How did you know it’s him?" After a pause, Cheng Ziang pressed on.
"Some people, even though they wear masks, cannot hide their characteristic temperament," Ah Si said faintly.
"Who are you exactly, and why are you so aware of these matters?" Cheng Ziang couldn’t help but express his doubts.
"Who are you talking to?" The man in black seemed to notice Cheng Ziang’s movements and therefore asked sternly.
"I must leave now. I’ll watch over the child, don’t worry, but also don’t be reckless," Ah Si said urgently, covering Ah Yang’s mouth, "If necessary... call upon the Nascent Soul."
After speaking, she quietly retreated while holding the child. After she left his sight, the man in black immediately focused all his attention on Cheng Ziang, seemingly forgetting Ah Si’s existence.
"Who is she really, and why does she know so much about these things, about my affairs?" Cheng Ziang couldn’t help muttering to himself.
"Where is the child, where did the child go?" Slightly delayed, the man in black then noticed that the child had disappeared. Instantly, his barely maintained composure scattered, and although his voice was still harsh and cold, a distinct sense of panic could be heard.
"You are Huayu Ting, right?" Cheng Ziang asked seriously.
Hearing his question, the man in black’s body trembled slightly, then he slowly looked at him, his eyes flickering with intense murderous intent.
"Listen, I don’t know why you want to take the child. If this child is related to you, we can talk," Cheng Ziang said earnestly.
"Talk? Everyone who knows this name must die!" The man in black issued a trembling voice, which was a hysterical low roar.
"Calm down. Even if you are a Dual Dao expert, our fight would surely result in one death, and that would be pointless," Cheng Ziang took a step back, anxiously trying to reason.
"Heh, aren’t you a bit overconfident?" The man in black sneered.
"If I wasn’t confident in my strength, I wouldn’t be so bold," Cheng Ziang responded.
"Then let’s test it then, it’s been a long time since I’ve met an opponent!" The man in black let out a high and fierce laugh, his unmasked eyes showing a crazed look.
Before the echo of his words faded, he had already darted forward, pouncing towards Cheng Ziang. Although Cheng Ziang was aiming with his gun, he hesitated to fire. Because firing a Yuanzi gun at a Cultivator meant there was no turning back.
Facing the deadly threat just inches away, Cheng Ziang showed fatal hesitation, his finger hesitated on the trigger without pressing it, watching as the man in black was about to strike him with his palm.
However, not everyone was as hesitant as him. Just when Cheng Ziang felt his scalp tingling, a flash of light burst forth from his chest, propelling straight toward the man in black.
The man in black, caught off guard, widened his eyes as the flash pierced through his chest and exited his back. In an instant, a burning sensation engulfed his veins, accompanied by excruciating pain spreading from the front and back of his torso.
This attack caused the man in black to falter, his strike deviating from its intended trajectory, brushing past Cheng Ziang and stumbling to the ground after landing, rolling clumsily a few times, barely managing to steady himself, kneeling before Cheng Ziang.
The man in black frowned tightly, cold sweat dripping, his frightened, icy gaze fixated on Cheng Ziang, and the mysterious sphere of light by his side.
Just as he was about to say something, he suddenly felt a rush of warm, blood-tasting fluid in his mouth and throat, and immediately, a gush of blood sprayed out, covering his masked face in blood.
In pain, the man in black clutched his chest and tore off the blood-soaked mask, revealing a face covered in blood.
He awkwardly wiped the blood off his face, his sinister eyes showing a hint of unwillingness. He tried to stand up again but felt an aching pain in all his veins, rendering him unable to move.
Cheng Ziang stared dumbfounded at the disheveled man in black. For some reason, he unexpectedly felt a sense of relief because Liseya did not directly ignite the magic within him, causing him to experience a fiery sensation. Instead, she burst his body’s veins, making him temporarily unable to harness his magic power.
Just as he breathed a sigh of relief, a sudden heart-wrenching cry came from the bushes, followed by rustling sounds. Ah Yang, ignoring Ah Si’s attempt to stop him, bit her and then rushed out of the bushes sobbing as he ran straight towards the man in black.
"Don’t go there, it’s dangerous!" Cheng Ziang cried out in alarm, but he couldn’t stop Ah Yang in time and could only watch as he reached the man in black.
But what happened next instantly dissipated all of Cheng Ziang’s worries, replaced by shock and confusion.
Ah Yang rushed to the man in black and immediately embraced his arm, crying loudly, "Dad, dad, are you alright?"
"Dad, he’s your dad?" Cheng Ziang asked in shock.
The man in black looked down at Ah Yang, his sinister and obsessive gaze suddenly softening. He closed his eyes and sighed deeply, then shook his head and said, "Dad’s fine, don’t worry about me."
"I’m sorry, dad..." Ah Yang cried regretfully.
"It’s not your fault..." The man in black’s tone grew softer.
"Nobody move!" At that moment, a group of uninvited guests arrived and surrounded the trio. The robust man leading them brandished a rifle, ordering everyone to stay still, but his gun was aimed at the man in black.
"Old Hu!" Cheng Ziang exclaimed excitedly upon seeing the newcomers.
"Heh heh, I told you this lad would be fine." Hu Daoke chuckled upon seeing Cheng Ziang unharmed.
"Ziang, you’re back?" Tangmo hurried over to Cheng Ziang’s side, asking with concern.
"Yeah, thanks to that kid leading the way. By the way, what are you all doing here?" Cheng Ziang turned back, asking puzzledly.
"It’s a long story," Tangmo shook his head, focusing his gaze intensely on the man in black and Ah Yang, curiously asking, "By the way, who is he?"
"He is that kid’s father." Cheng Ziang replied.
"That kid... is from the Demon Clan, right? So he is that child’s father, which means..." Tangmo squinted, a new theory forming in her mind.
As if to confirm her suspicion, Fei Yu hurried over. When she saw the man in black with a blood-stained face, she was frightened, her legs gave way, and she scrambled to the man in black’s side, sobbing, "Husband, are you alright? I’m sorry, it’s all my fault... my negligence..."
The man in black tenderly looked at Ah Yang, but his gaze turned icy as he looked at Fei Yu. Then, unexpectedly, he raised his hand and harshly slapped Fei Yu, sending her tumbling to the ground.
