Battle Through the Heavens: I Am the Righteous Path

Chapter 346 Hypocrisy
Outside the Black Corner Domain battlefield, Yunying gently waved his folding fan and looked at the changed scenery around him with interest.

"Have you awakened your skills? It can even affect me. It's really amazing."

Yunying's words sounded very approving, but that was not actually the case.

Now she is just a little fighting spirit, and her soul power has been suppressed by herself. Only then can Xiao Yan's power affect her and let her see this strange illusion.

Yunying also knew that if it were Xiao Yan from before, no matter how strong the black energy was, it would not have such a strong effect. The black energy revealed when fighting the old devil should be Xiao Yan's limit.

And the reason why it is now so strong that others can see illusions is obviously the short-term increase brought by the Dark Soul Lock of Hell.

"It seems that we have really got this technique right. It is tailor-made just for you."

Yunying closed the folding fan and raised a touching smile on her lips.

Immediately, Yunying glanced at the little medical fairy lying on the ground with weak breathing in the far corner, and came to a conclusion in her heart.

No one in the field can care about the Little Medical Fairy now. Judging from this situation, it is estimated that the Little Medical Fairy will sadly die here in the near future.

"For the sake of making things more interesting, I will be kind enough to save you once."

With a gentle tap of Yunying's fingertips, a green pill appeared out of thin air at the mouth of the little medical fairy, leaping into her mouth as if it were alive.

The next moment, the little medical fairy's breathing gradually became smoother, her pale face slowly returned to color, the blood on her chest was stopped, and her wounds were visibly healed.

Then, Yunying looked at Xiao Yan's back again, which was covered in black energy.

At this time, Xiao Yan's eyes were filled with aura, and he was staring at the Iron Protector in front of him, causing the Iron Protector's forehead to be covered with sweat.

He didn't understand. He didn't understand why he was so afraid of a great fighting master. Normally, he didn't even need to look at such a small character. Shouldn't he just pass it by?

But now, Protector Tie has experienced unprecedented fear from Xiao Yan in front of him. It is even more terrifying than facing the elder of the Soul Palace. It does not come from strength, but from the depth of the soul, the most primitive fear of mankind. feel.

On the other side, Guardian Wu, who was not facing Guardian Iron, saw him frozen in place and glanced at the drastically changed scenery around him. This illusion that even he was affected made the Guardian Wu feel more uneasy. He couldn't help but yell and roar at the Iron Protector.

"Iron Protector! What are you doing?! Kill that kid quickly!!!"

"Well?!"

After being yelled at by Protector Wu, Protector Iron suddenly came to his senses, and then he felt extremely humiliated in his heart.

I am a dignified protector of the Soul Palace and a dignified fighting master, but I was intimidated by a small and great fighting master?Are you kidding me? ! !
Protector Tie felt extremely humiliated, his aura rose up, and he glared at Xiao Yan, who was wrapped in black energy, with murderous intent.

Even if I just suffered a heavy blow, even if a low-level Dou Huang can deal with me now, you, a great Dou Master, are not qualified to yell at me!

Your life will be taken away by this protector today! ! !

Xiao Yan didn't know what Protector Tie was thinking at this time, or there was no need to know.

At this time, his heart had completely fallen into instinct. There was only one thought in his mind, an idea that he had been suppressing and the one that was most consistent with his own nature.

Control violence with violence, and control evil with evil!
Contrary to the modesty shown on the surface, Xiao Yan's nature is actually quite arrogant. In his heart, he has always looked down on those strong men of the same level or even higher than himself. He thinks that he has the ability to defeat the opponent, so he will do it once. Once again, he did things that others thought were seeking death.

In the Warcraft Mountains, he faced the wolf-headed mercenary group as a fighter, in the Tagore Desert, he stepped into the strange fire as a fighter to save Medusa, and in the Black Horn Region, he faced the old devil as a great fighter. These are all proofs of Xiao Yan's extreme pride. He is extremely confident that he can do these things, no matter what his strength is.

Xiao Yan's nature is quite admiring of the strong. He just forces himself to be considerate of the weak on the grounds of righteousness.

It can even be said that Xiao Yan is hypocritical. What he thinks in his heart is completely different from what he does.

The idea of ​​using violence to combat violence and evil to combat evil has always been the most instinctive idea in Xiao Yan's heart from the very beginning to now.

However, because of the rationality brought by the righteousness that Xiao Yan forcibly attached to himself, Xiao Yan understood that relying on this method alone could not solve the fundamental problem, and would even be counterproductive, so he suppressed it time and time again, along with his own Arrogant together.

Xiao Yan has always viewed himself and others from a third-person perspective. In Xiao Yan's mind, the only difference between himself and others is that his words and actions can be perfectly controlled by his own right path.

Because of this, Xiao Yan has been able to be so restrained in the face of greed and temptation time and time again.

In Xiao Yan's eyes, he was not restraining himself, but ordering a puppet that was completely obedient to him, telling him what he should and shouldn't do, and even controlling his words and deeds.

And whenever I can't control the puppet [Xiao Yan], the dark black energy deep in my heart will emerge. When the black energy emerges, Xiao Yan's actions are not determined by him at all. Under the control of the concept of righteousness, he is the real him at this time, and what he does is what he really wants to do.

But before, even if Xiao Yan was himself, he was at least trying his best to suppress himself and not go too far. There was still a desire to resist his original intention in his heart, so his reason was still there and there was still room for redemption.

But this time, when he saw the little medical fairy being pierced through the chest by the Iron Guardian in order to protect himself, Xiao Yan took the initiative to give up even a trace of resistance and let his instincts take over his mind without any reservation, with only one purpose.

【kill him】

Xiao Yan's scarlet eyes once again bloomed with frightening red light, a ferocious smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and his body was swallowed up by the black energy, and disappeared from the sight of the Iron Protector in just the blink of an eye.

Immediately afterwards, a strong sense of crisis emerged in the heart of the angry Iron Protector, as well as the panicked roar of the Bird Protector.

"later!!!!!"

Protector Tie suddenly turned around and saw Xiao Yan coming towards him like a shadow.

At this distance, the Iron Protector could obviously react and fight back.

But for some reason, when Protector Tie raised his hand, Xiao Yan's sharp claws wrapped in black energy drew black shadows in the air, and tore a piece of flesh off Protector Tie's shoulder!

The pain of scraping the flesh made Protector Iron's expression extremely ferocious. If it weren't for the self-esteem of the Protector of Soul Palace, he would now be wailing like the weaklings he once looked down upon.

At the moment when he experienced the pain, Protector Tie's mind was also churning.

How did this kid become so strong? !He is just a great fighter! ! !
But Xiao Yan now would not give Guardian Tie time to think.

The black shadow flashed again, and another dark claw struck from a tricky angle, aiming directly at the sinister face of the Iron Protector. The Iron Protector was so shocked that he broke into a cold sweat and turned his head to avoid it, but still Ling Xiao Yan's black claws left four deep blood marks on his face.

At this time, the furious voice of the Bird Protector came again.

"Iron Protector! What are you doing?! Are you forced to this point by a little great fighter?!"

"Looking around is not a good habit!!!"

When the Bird Guardian roared, Mo Tianxing seized the opportunity and attacked the Bird Guardian again, causing the unaware Bird Guardian to suffer another heavy blow in the chest.

Anyway, I can't come up with the technique now, and Guardian Wu doesn't believe it either. There is no possibility of reconciliation between the two.That being the case, let’s fight until we die!

Either he dies, or I die!
Protector Wu was sneak attacked by Mo Tianxing, his eyes were full of hatred, and thanks to his level being much higher than that of Mo Tianxing, it was an old devil of the same level as Mo Tianxing who was attacked by Mo Tianxing twice. Can't stand it.

However, although he did not suffer serious damage, being attacked by Mo Tianxing twice in succession still made it difficult for Guardian Wu to contain the anger in his heart, and his expression became extremely ferocious.

"Mo! God! OK!!!"

The Bird Protector roared angrily and got entangled with Mo Tianxing. At this moment, he had completely lost the game mentality he had at the beginning. All he could think about was killing Mo Tianxing in front of him and taking out his soul. He can neither live nor die!
On the other side, after hearing Protector Wu's furious roar at him, Protector Iron was stunned for a moment.

Even I can't react to this guy's speed. Do you still think he is a great fighter? ? ?
But soon, Protector Tie had a guess in his mind.

Is it possible that in the eyes of Guardian Ya, Xiao Yan's speed is not outrageous?
Following this guess, Protector Tie's mind was like being struck by lightning, and he immediately understood everything.

After the black energy emerged from this boy's body, he certainly became stronger.

But more importantly, he has become weaker!
Originally, his current strength was not much different from that of a Dou Huang, but now because of the influence of Xiao Yan's black energy deep in his soul, he could not exert his full strength at all, and his reaction was even slower. Now His actual combat power may not be as good as that of a fighting king!
Just when Protector Tie figured this out, Xiao Yan's offensive attacked him again.

And this time, it was even more swift and violent than the previous two attacks!
Xiao Yan turned into a black shadow, flashing around the Iron Protector. Every time, a bloody wound would be left on the Iron Protector's body. Whether the Iron Protector wanted to fight back, defend or dodge, He would always be one step behind Xiao Yan and be succeeded by Xiao Yan time and time again.

In just a few breaths, Protector Tie's body was already mutilated, and his black robe was stained red with blood.

What makes Guardian Tie even more frightened is that he can't figure out Xiao Yan's intention to attack at all. Xiao Yan is like a wild beast with no rules to follow. His fighting style is called bold at best, but random at worst!It was impossible for him to predict where Xiao Yan would attack next!

And as said before, fear to the extreme is anger!
"Boy! Don't be too arrogant!!!"

The anger drove away the fear deep in Tie Guardian's heart. Without the constraints of fear, Tie Guardian was finally able to follow Xiao Yan's traces. When Xiao Yan flashed to his side again, Tie Guardian suddenly smashed Release an iron fist with surging killing intent.

Bang!
With a loud roar, Xiao Yan's black body was repulsed and slammed into the house next to the street. His whole body was deeply buried in the collapsed bricks and rubble.

When Xiao Yan sprang out from the ruins, the Iron Protector had already displayed his fighting skills, and a one-meter-wide black wave of destructive energy shot towards Xiao Yan rapidly.

Xuan level advanced fighting skills, dark devouring!
"You die for me!!!"

The Iron Protector howled angrily and injected his fighting spirit into this blow, hoping that Xiao Yan, the boy who had embarrassed him to the extreme, would die with no intact body!
However, when the black energy wave was still half a meter away from Xiao Yan, Xiao Yan suddenly turned sideways and waved his arm forward. Then the black energy on his body condensed into dozens of thick black chains, which followed Xiao Yan's arms. The direction of Zhan suddenly sprang out and collided with the black energy wave of the Iron Protector.

Immediately, the Iron Protector looked at the scene in front of him in disbelief. He could resist with his fighting skills at first, but after a few breaths, he was retreating steadily. Xiao Yan's chains were frequently destroyed, but more would follow. The chain sprang out, and the consumption speed of the black energy wave could not match the regeneration speed of Xiao Yan's black chain!

Finally, under the horrified sight of the Iron Guardian, his own black energy wave was destroyed by dozens of thick black chains, heading straight for him like a surging poisonous snake!

puff!
Although he barely avoided some chains, many chains still hit the Iron Guardian.

As the black chains turned into black energy and dissipated, the extremely miserable Iron Guardian appeared in front of everyone.

One arm has also disappeared, and even more terrifyingly, half of his head has been smashed by the chain!

"Damn Chongzhi! Damn Chongzhi!!!"

The Iron Protector roared crazily, thinking that he, the mighty Dou Zong and the Protector of the Soul Palace, could be so injured by a little great Dou Master! ! !
Looking at Xiao Yan, Protector Tie's eyes kept blooming, and the ruthless look in his eyes could not be greater!

"Damn boy, go to hell! Dark Soul Claw!!!"

The Iron Protector roared hoarsely, and used up the remaining fighting energy with his remaining hand, burning his soul and rushing towards Xiao Yan.

The soul-burning iron protector's strength has actually increased several times compared to before!
The Iron Protector, who had completely lost his face, no longer cared whether he could live or not. Even if he died, he would drag Xiao Yan down with him to support him! ! !

"Xiao Yan!!!"

Han Feng screamed in shock. She could tell that this blow was a life-burning plan for the Iron Protector. Even though Xiao Yan had indeed suppressed the Iron Protector from beginning to end, this blow was definitely not something he could take. Down!

Han Feng struggled to get up and rescue him, but was unable to do anything due to the sequelae of his soul!

Xiao Yan looked at the Iron Protector attacking him, his scarlet eyes flashed suddenly, and just as he was about to move, dozens of facial hair sprang out from the ground, tying Xiao Yan firmly in place.

These are the last chains of the Iron Protector, and with the current Xiao Yan, these chains can only restrain him for a moment.

But this moment is enough!

Seeing Protector Tie's claws getting closer and closer, Xiao Yan whimpered like a wild animal, struggling to break away from the chains, but he did it in the next breath.

But at this time, the Iron Protector's attack was only an inch away from him!
In the next moment, Xiao Yan will die from this attack!

Protector Tie also showed excitement in his eyes, excited that he could successfully kill Xiao Yan.

He was sure that as long as Xiao Yan received his blow from the front, he would definitely die!
Yes!front!
At this critical moment, when despair appeared in Han Feng's eyes, an arm suddenly stretched out from the side and tightly grasped Protector Tie's arm, preventing him from moving forward even half an inch.

？ ！！

The excitement on Protector Tie's face froze in place, and he turned his head blankly along the arm that was blocking him. What he saw was a woman with long green hair who had a look of joy in her eyes.

Elder of Tian Snake Mansion, Green Barbarian!

"Huh~~~" Lu Man, who had left and returned, breathed a deep sigh of relief and looked at the dull-faced Iron Protector with cold eyes, "It's true, it was just a little bit close.
　This chapter can be regarded as officially revealing the real Xiao Yan. Shadow Xiao Yan is not so much Xiao Yan's dark side as the real Xiao Yan. The ordinary Xiao Yan is fake.

　　He is arrogant by nature, but he forces himself to be humble to others because of the right path he has set.

　　By nature, he admires the strong, but because of the right path he has set, he forces himself to be considerate of the weak.

　　Xiao Yan's existence is very contradictory. Almost all of his thoughts are evil, but in fact he forces himself to do good as much as possible.

　　Compared with those who are born good, the character of Xiao Yan, who is evil in nature but is dedicated to good, further reflects Xiao Yan's persistence in the right path. He has to face not only pressure from the outside but also pressure from the outside when he follows the right path. The pressure to defy your own nature.

　　The kind of person Xiao Yan has always hated and wanted to resist is actually his true self. Xiao Yan is actually a collection of contradictions.

　　Selfish yet selfless, hypocritical yet sincere, arrogant yet humble, admiring the strong yet pitying the weak.

　　Although Xiao Yan has an evil nature, he truly believes that this is wrong, so he restricts his nature again and again.

　　At least for me personally, I am very proud of the image of Xiao Yan I created. It is much more three-dimensional than setting Xiao Yan to be good by nature. People have to be contradictory to make it more real.

　　Finally, I want to ask a question: Do we care more about what a person thinks, or what a person does?If what he thinks is the opposite of what he does, which side are you more willing to believe?
