Turns Out, I’m In A Villain Clan! - Chapter 469 Identity of Yun Mo Kou Sky Pirate's Leader
Chapter 469 Identity of Yun Mo Kou Sky Pirate’s Leader
Bai Zihan decided to keep going to the Bai Clan because he didn’t think there would be any problem even if another ambush was waiting for him.
Unless a Top Clan or Sect went all out to kill him, there weren’t many who could pose a problem to his current strength.
However, there was none, and soon enough they reached the Bai Clan without any problem.
The Flying ship descended smoothly onto the main docking platform.
As soon as it stabilized-
Bai Zihan stepped down.
“Greetings, Young Master!”
The stationed guards bowed deeply.
Bai Zihan did not waste time on pleasantries. “You!”
He pointed at one of the nearby servants.
“Find Jin Yuanzhan and bring him to me.”
His tone was mild.
But there was no room for delay.
The servant startled slightly.
“Yes, Young Master!”
The servant hurried off at once.
Minutes passed.
The courtyard remained quiet.
Then-
Footsteps approached from the stone path leading from the inner residences.
Jin Yuanzhan appeared with a hurried step.
Behind him walked a young girl, her hair tied neatly with jade pins.
They stopped several meters away.
Both bowed.
“Jin Yuanzhan greets Young Master Bai.”
His voice was respectful, neither hurried nor trembling.
Beside him, the girl followed suit.
“Jin Yuelin greets Young Master.”
Bai Zihan studied them calmly.
His gaze lingered for a fraction of a second longer on Jin Yuanzhan.
“Looks like you have healed completely,”
Bai Zihan said.
Jin Yuanzhan bowed again, excitement flashing across his face.
“It’s all thanks to Young Master’s generosity!”
His voice was full of gratitude, and there was genuine sincerity in it.
Bai Zihan’s gaze shifted to the girl.
“You too. Looks like you are working hard.”
“Hehe… I want to repay the Young Master as soon as possible.”
Jin Yuelin replied with a hint of shyness.
Chu Ziyan glanced at Jin Yuelin, not very pleased with how she was acting toward Bai Zihan.
Bai Zihan, however, noticed no such undercurrents.
He walked forward slowly, stopping several steps away from Jin Yuanzhan.
“Let’s get to the topic. The reason why I called you is because of this.”
Saying that, Bai Zihan lifted his hand.
Space distorted.
The air twisted as though something heavy was being dragged through an unseen fold.
Then-
Thud!
A broken body fell onto the courtyard’s polished stone.
The Sky Pirate Leader.
Or what remained of him.
His limbs were severed. His meridians were charred and collapsed. The once domineering aura of a Great Ascension Realm
than a faint, unstable flicker.
Yet-
His face was intact.
Deliberately so.
was now little more
Jin Yuanzhan’s pupils contracted-but only for a fraction of a breath.
“We were ambushed on our way back by-“
His tone was calm.
“Sky Pirates.”
Jin Yuanzhan’s brows furrowed.
“Sky Pirates…?”
He glanced at the man who lay on the ground. One could already imagine the consequence of trying to ambush Bai Zihan’s Flying Ship.
“This man forcefully raised his cultivation to half-step Immortal Realm during
battle.”
He spoke evenly.
“The technique he used…”
A slight pause.
“…resembled the one you used before in the Dragon and Phoenix Competition.”
The wind seemed to thin.
“I thought,” Bai Zihan continued, “perhaps you might recognize him.”
Jin Yuanzhan did not answer immediately.
He stepped forward.
He knelt beside the mutilated Sky Pirate Leader. Carefully-very carefully-he lifted the man’s chin.
He studied the face.
The bone structure.
The spiritual residue lingering around the dantian.
His expression gradually changed from confusion…
To grave concentration.
He placed two fingers lightly against the pirate’s wrist.
Closed his eyes.
His spiritual sense extended inward.
The moment his perception entered the shattered meridians-
His breathing paused.
The pattern-
The burn scars.
The crystallized sun-like residue embedded deep within the core pathways.
His heart sank.
Sun Core Dao Stone.
Or rather-
A fragment of Sun Dao fused directly into the cultivation foundation.
Exactly like his own.
The structure was unstable and even more violent than his.
Even the backlash scars-
Were almost identical.
Jin Yuanzhan opened his eyes slowly.
His hand trembled faintly before he withdrew it.
He bowed deeply.
“Please forgive me, Young Master. I do not recognize him.”
His voice was steady, though quieter than before.
“If he were a former elder or a known expert within Azure Sun Holy sects, I
should have recognized his face immediately-especially since he is in the Great Ascension Realm.”
If that was the case, then it was more likely that the Sky Pirate Leader wasn’t
from the Azure Sun Holy Sect, as Bai Zihan had initially thought.
Bai Zihan remained silent.
Jin Yuanzhan continued, more solemn now:
“However…”
He looked down at the broken pirate once more.
“There is no doubt.”
“This man underwent the same type of forced fusion experiment as I did. That
is something that I am certain of.”
The word experiment lingered in the air.
“The Sun Core Dao Stone-or more precisely, a fragment of Sun Dao-was
embedded into his body.”
His gaze hardened slightly.
“But unlike mine, his integration was even cruder. He relied entirely on external
stimulation to awaken it.”
“Which is why his meridians collapsed so violently after the enhancement
faded.”
Bai Zihan’s expression remained calm.
“So,” Bai Zihan said softly, “the Azure Sun Holy Sect does know this man?”
Jin Yuanzhan lowered his head further.
“Yes!”
After all, only they were capable of such experiments, and they should be able
to recognize someone who successfully integrated a fragment of the Sun Dao
Stone.
But just because the Azure Sun Holy Sect knew him, it wasn’t certain that they were the ones behind the attack on Bai Zihan-and he knew that.
However-
“The Azure Sun Holy Sect has been bothering me quite a bit. I guess it’s time to
settle the score with them.”
Whether it was during the war with the Demonic Forces or their decision to
join the Li-Zhao Alliance, it was certain that the Azure Sun Holy Sect had
chosen to oppose him to the end.
Now that an opportunity had appeared, he intended to take it and settle every
grievance.
“Jin Yuanzhan, get ready! We are going to the Azure Sun Holy Sect!”
