Invincible Starting from Max Level Attributes

Chapter 752: 758

Inside Yao Saint Palace, Elder Jian looked bewildered as he asked the Palace Master, “Is everything Yang Zhen said true?”

A hint of curiosity flickered across the Third Saintess’s face as she also looked to the Palace Master, evidently quite interested in the matter.

In the Western Region, Yao Saint Palace was almost omnipotent. They were ignorant of only those things they chose not to know.

After hearing Elder Jian’s words, the Palace Master of Yao Saint Palace nodded and said, “Judging from Wan Jian’s current behavior, it seems to be true.”

“Hiss!” Elder Jian gasped, looking at Yang Zhen in surprise before shaking his head and saying, “This is terrifying. These two matters must be extremely surreptitious secrets for Wan Jian. How did Yang Zhen find out about them?”

The Third Saintess’s eyes suddenly lit up as she said, “I heard a piece of news. After coming to the Western Region, Yang Zhen didn’t stay with Yunla and the others. He was often out and about, so he might have been gathering information. I didn’t expect him to be this well-prepared.”

“Even if he was gathering information around the clock, he wouldn’t be able to gain knowledge of these secrets. Besides those closely associated with Wan Jian, no one else should know about it.” Elder Jian looked perplexed as he glanced at the Sky Observing Mirror.

The Palace Master of Yao Saint Palace suddenly chuckled and said enigmatically, “In my opinion, Yang Zhen might have deduced these matters on his own.”

“What?” Elder Jian and the Third Saintess both exclaimed in unison, “How is that possible!”

How could he have deduced such matters?

Even an Astrology Master with the Star Calculation Skill would need to have an intimate understanding and deep interaction with someone to figure out the person’s secrets.

Yang Zhen just arrived in the Western Region and only just met Wan Jian for the first time. Under these circumstances, how could he have any understanding of Wan Jian?

Not to mention, he would need an in-depth understanding. How could that be possible?

Elder Jian pondered for a moment, looking incredulously at the Palace Master of Yao Saint Palace before hesitantly saying, “Are you suggesting that Yang Zhen could see through Wan Jian’s façade and deduce all these matters with just one glance?”

The Palace Master of Yao Saint Palace nodded and said solemnly, “I’m afraid so!”

“Impossible!” Elder Jian took a deep breath, looking doubtful as he said beneath the Third Saintess’s incredulous gaze, “During the Tribulation Crossing Period, Wan Jian fought two Mahayana Phase powerhouses, killing one and seriously injuring the other. It’s possible to find out about that, but how to deduce that Wan Jian was also seriously injured and left with internal injuries?”

The Palace Master of Yao Saint Palace nodded and said, “Indeed, it’s impossible to deduce that. But what if Yang Zhen has an ability to detect the hidden illness in Wan Jian with just one glance?”

Upon hearing this, the Third Saintess suddenly exclaimed, “I remember now. When Yang Zhen and the others first arrived in the Western Region, there was a rumor circulating.”

“What rumor?” Elder Jian exclaimed in surprise, asking with great interest.

The Third Saintess looked at their curious expressions and said, “It is said that when Yang Zhen was still on the Northern Island, he noticed the hidden illness in Wu Tao at a glance. He even proposed to help her heal. Although he has yet to help Wu Tao heal her body to this day, this proves that Yang Zhen can indeed detect the internal injuries of a practitioner with just one glance.”

“Hiss!” Elder Jian gasped again, mumbling to himself, “How terrifying, this boy is truly terrifying.”

The Palace Master of Yao Saint Palace chuckled and said, “Elder Jian, save your amazement for later. Yang Zhen is far from being that simple.”

“What else is there?” Clearly shaken by Yang Zhen, Elder Jian asked in astonishment, “Are you talking about the Scorpion Tail Grass?”

The Palace Master of Yao Saint Palace nodded and said, “If what Yang Zhen says is true, then he might be able to survive the joint attack by the multiple Heavenly Blessed at the ruined peak.”

The Third Saintess giggled, giving the Sky Observing Mirror a significant glance as she murmured, “I suppose there’s more to it. Yang Zhen seems to be more cunning than we thought.”

…

At this moment, within the Sky Observing Mirror, it seemed that Wan Jian could no longer hold back. As he stood up and took a deep breath, he said to Yang Zhen, “Yang Zhen, if you can truly save my life, I will follow your command from now on. As long as it doesn’t contradict the major principles of practitioners and the etiquette of the sect, I dare not disobey!”

Upon hearing Wan Jian’s words, everyone under the Sky Observing Mirror was stunned.

Even Elder Geng, with a wry smile on his face, shook his head, saying, “Such a pity!”

Wan Jian undoubtedly had an infinite potential as one of the Heavenly Blessed. However, no matter how unlimited his potential was, he was still a man condemned to death and nothing could be done about it.

During these two years, many people, including Elder Geng, have exhausted all means, but still could not eliminate the poison in Wan Jian’s body, let alone completely healing his internal injuries. Without the Scorpion Tail Grass and the Heavenly Transformation Fruit, Wan Jian was destined to die.

But now, just one sentence from Yang Zhen had ignited the hopes of Wan Jian and Elder Geng. How could Wan Jian not be moved under such circumstances?

Yang Zhen waved his hand, sat back down, and surprisingly closed his eyes in front of everyone.

Wan Jian’s face was an unpredictable storm, staring at Yang Zhen as if about to say something but then deciding against it. After a sigh, he turned and left.

Elder Geng’s iron fists clenched with an audible creak, his face a mask of fluctuating darkness, stunned as he looked at Yang Zhen.

Had Wan Jian pleaded so much, and yet Yang Zhen refused?

It was as if… Initially, Elder Geng thought Wan Jian was too submissive, but now it seemed that Yang Zhen found Wan Jian beneath him.

Unbelievable! Elder Geng, perplexed by Yang Zhen’s unexpected way of handling things, had the urge to forcibly bring Yang Zhen back with him.

But even if he had a hundred times his courage, he wouldn’t dare to kidnap anyone under the watchful eyes of Yaochi Holy Land. He could only grit his teeth in frustration, having no way to deal with the situation.

In reality, how could anyone know that Yang Zhen was currently contemplating whether to help or not?

If he helped, he would surely gain a huge ally in Wan Jian. Saving a life was better than building a seven-story pagoda. Although Wan Jian might have seemed gloomy and merciless, he was actually a man with a chivalrous heart, who had done a lot of good deeds over the years.

However, this journey to Eagle Fall Cliff was originally an evaluation – a life and death one at that, Yang Zhen was already quite merciful by not killing. Did he need to go out of his way to help Wan Jian?

But it did not seem quite right to not help. In order to leave a good impression on Yaochi Holy Land and successfully help “Sao Chicken” achieve Nirvana, Yang Zhen had to assist.

To help or not to help?

At that moment, Wan Jian, who was walking into the distance, casually waved his hand, and five lights shot at Yang Zhen.

Yang Zhen’s eyes widened, ready to blast this treacherous little man with an explosive, but his face suddenly changed. He reached out and caught the five lights thrown by Wan Jian, which turned out to be five tokens.

Oh, my! @@novelbin@@

What a surprise! Yang Zhen did not expect Wan Jian, that bushy-browed big-eyed guy, to be so considerate.

Holding more tokens meant leaving a better impression on Yaochi Holy Land. Maybe they’d happily agree to whatever conditions Yang Zhen demanded and there wouldn’t need to be a fight. Why not do it, right?

Well, if this bushy-browed big-eyed Wan Jian was going to be so considerate, Yang Zhen might as well help him out.

With this in mind, Yang Zhen grinned and said, “Go wait behind the large rock in the back.”

Upon hearing Yang Zhen’s words, Wan Jian was taken aback, turning back to give Yang Zhen a deep look before silently walking to sit cross-legged behind the large rock.

Obviously, Yang Zhen was going to help him, but now didn’t seem to be the time. Judging by the current situation, was Yang Zhen stalking someone?

Wan Jian sat on the ground, looking perplexed and worried to the point of almost doodling in the dirt.

Under the Sky Observing Mirror, Elder Geng was so excited that his breath hitched. He looked at Yang Zhen gratefully, praising him with a continuous string of “Good!”

At that moment, four figures darted toward Yang Zhen from not far away.

Just as Wan Jian was about to move, Yang Zhen suddenly said, “Don’t come out, just wait!”

Yang Zhen’s air of a seasoned sage left Wan Jian worried and confused, leaving him speechless and forgetting the words on the tip of his tongue.

These four people were individuals not even Wan Jian dared to offend lightly. They could be said to be the most formidable contestants in this evaluation.

“Stop!”

Yang Zhen’s shout shocked everyone.

Whether it was under the Sky Observing Mirror or the approaching four, everyone shivered, their eyes wide as they looked at Yang Zhen.

Yang Zhen stood up, hands on his hips, his clothes billowing, his face stern. Staring at the four, he said loudly, “This mountain was claimed by me, this tree planted by me. If you wish to cross, leave your toll.”

Crowd: “???”

The Third Saintess of Yao Saint Palace chuckled, looking at Yang Zhen with interest and said, “This guy, where did he learn to talk such nonsense? Is he planning to rob them?”
