Chapter 130 Love for Talent
"Your Excellency is quite skilled, but your daughter was at fault for what happened today." An Wuhen spoke slowly.
Peng Shiyan snorted coldly, his voice carrying a bone-chilling chill that sent shivers down his spine. "Hmph! I naturally know this girl is dull-witted and won't amount to anything great, but you actually humiliated her so wantonly. This account must be settled no matter what!"
As the words fell, an extremely powerful aura suddenly emanated from Peng Shiyan's body, sweeping around like a surging torrent.
The aura was so strong that it was suffocating, and even the surrounding air seemed to be solidified by its pressure.
Faced with Peng Shiyan's terrifying aura, An Wuhen on the opposite side felt a little apprehensive, but he was not truly afraid.
On the contrary, at this moment, he also exuded an extremely depressing and eerie aura from his whole body, just like an evil ghost walking out from the depths of the Nine Nether Hell, which was creepy.
Peng Shiyan couldn't help but frown upon seeing this, thinking to himself: Who is this person?
Why does he have such a strong evil aura about him?
Such a strong evil spirit has never been seen before!
Thinking of this, Peng Shiyan stared at the other person and asked in a deep voice, "May I ask your background?"
An Wuhen curled his lips into a cold smile, "It doesn't matter who I am, what matters is that you messed with the wrong person today."
Peng Shiyan laughed in anger, "What a big mouth! Don't think you can act arrogantly in front of me just because you have some sorcery."
After saying that, Peng Shiyan swung his fist towards An Wuhen.
An Wuhen dodged it easily with a flash of his body, while at the same time throwing out several black flying needles in his hand.
Peng Shiyan's eyes focused, and he suddenly waved his sleeves. A powerful airflow suddenly burst out, like an invisible shield, blocking all the dense flying needles.
In an instant, the sound of metal colliding was endless and sparks flew everywhere.
In the blink of an eye, the two figures flashed and intertwined like two lightning bolts.
For a moment, the palm wind was whistling and the fist shadows were heavy. It was difficult to tell who was better between you and me.
After several rounds, the two sides were still deadlocked, and neither side was able to gain any advantage.
At this moment, An Wuhen couldn't help but marvel in his heart that the skills of Peng Shiyan in front of him were so amazing that he couldn't win quickly with his own skills.
At this moment, An Wuhen's heart suddenly moved, and he actually felt a little bit of appreciation for talent.
Relying solely on his own internal strength, it would be difficult for Peng Shiyan to make any significant improvement in his strength.
For An Wuhen, it was completely different. Everyone in the world could provide him with an endless source of power. As long as he wanted, he could become extremely powerful.
At the same time, he caught a glimpse of subtle ambition in the depths of Peng Shiyan's eyes.
An Wuhen's mouth corners slightly raised, revealing a sinister smile.
Because he knew that he was fully capable of satisfying the other party's ambition.
"Wait!" With An Wuhen's low shout, his body suddenly turned into a ball of thick black mist, spinning rapidly around Peng Shiyan like a ghost.
Seeing this, Peng Shiyan frowned tightly, wondering in his heart what tricks An Wuhen was going to play next.
When the black fog subsided a bit, An Wuhen reappeared. He looked at Peng Shiyan and slowly said, "Brother Peng, we've been fighting fiercely today, but it's still so difficult to determine the winner. In my opinion, why don't we just stop fighting and work together?"
Hearing this, Peng Shiyan couldn't help but snort coldly, and responded with a look of disdain: "Cooperating with an evil cultivator like you? Are you still dreaming of dragging me down into the devil's way with you?"
An Wuhen suddenly raised his head and laughed out loud. The laughter echoed in the silent valley, as if it was going to shatter everything around him.
He stared at Peng Shiyan in front of him and said loudly, "Brother Peng, Brother Peng! What you said is wrong. Who of us, you and I, isn't someone with lofty ambitions, someone who refuses to be ordinary? Look at yourself. You've reached the end of your path in internal energy cultivation and have hit an insurmountable bottleneck. But don't be afraid, I have a unique secret method that can help you break through this dilemma in one fell swoop!!"
Hearing these words, Peng Shiyan's eyes suddenly lit up, as if a candle in the darkness was instantly lit.
The vigilance cultivated by years of wandering the martial arts world made him not immediately believe what the other party said. Instead, he stared at An Wuhen with a bit of vigilance and said in a deep voice, "Oh? Tell me, what kind of magical method can have such an effect?"
Peng Shiyan vaguely guessed what method An Wuhen wanted to talk about, and it was probably the same as his.
Seeing this, An Wuhen smiled slightly, took a step forward, and lowered his voice to say, "There are countless creatures in this world, and each one contains more or less power. As long as we can master the method of drawing on this power and use it for our own benefit, then improving our internal strength will naturally be a piece of cake."
It was just as he expected.
This An Wuhen wants him to go along with the evil.
This practice of improving one's own cultivation by absorbing the power of other living beings is obviously contrary to the traditional righteous path.
For a moment, his inner moral code and his desire for powerful strength clashed fiercely in his heart.
His strength has indeed reached a bottleneck for many years! !
An Wuhen was such a shrewd person that he saw through Peng Shiyan's thoughts at a glance.
So, he struck while the iron was hot and continued his persuasion, "Brother Peng, as the saying goes, 'Those who achieve great things don't dwell on trivial matters.' Moreover, in this world where the strong prey on the weak, the strong are always respected. If you reject my proposal because of this minor concern, then I'm afraid you'll be trapped in your current situation for the rest of your life, unable to make any further progress."
Peng Shiyan clenched his teeth tightly, and veins bulged on his forehead.
Once you choose to embark on this path, it means you are betraying the righteous beliefs you have always adhered to.
But on the other hand, the strong desire to further improve his strength was like a demon that kept tempting him in his heart.
Finally, after a struggle between his conscience and his own, he spoke with difficulty, "But...if this matter were to be exposed and known to others, I would surely be despised and scorned by the entire world!"
An Wuhen scoffed at this, curling his lips in disdain and retorting, "Humph! As long as we have enough power, who would dare to say a word? Those people would just shut up and even worship you!"
Peng Shiyan pondered for a long time, and finally raised his head slowly, "What is your purpose?!"
An Wuhen said, “Tsk tsk tsk,” this old fox is not so easy to fool.
An Wuhen placed a hand on Peng Shiyan's shoulder and said, "What purpose could I have? Feel my power."
Peng Shiyan felt a surge of power flowing from An Wuhen's palm into his body. The power was so powerful and domineering that it shocked him.
An Wuhen noticed Peng Shiyan's expression change, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly. He said softly, "Brother Peng, you see, this is the result of absorbing the power of other living beings. I am so powerful now, but I have not suffered any punishment, simply because no one dared to challenge my edge."
Peng Shiyan's eyes flashed with hesitation, and he asked, "So what do you want?"
An Wuhen laughed heartily, then revealed his murderous intent, "I just want to kill all the descendants of the Huangfu clan."
Peng Shiyan was excited. He thought about how he had been stuck in a bottleneck for many years. If he could break through, he would no longer be restrained by other sects.
He took a deep breath and said, "Forget it, let's try it as you say."
An Wuhen was secretly delighted, but remained expressionless. He patted Peng Shiyan on the shoulder and said, "Brother Peng is indeed straightforward. Before long, you and I will become powerful men that everyone in this world looks up to."
There was a raging fire of desire in Peng Shiyan's eyes, as if it was about to erupt at the next moment.
He was secretly delighted in his heart, having never expected that this trip would bring him such unexpected gains.
At this moment, he finally understood why that old fellow Lu Zhong would disregard the risks and secretly try to learn those evil skills that were considered taboo.
Peng Shiyan raised his eyebrows slightly and asked with a half-smile, "So, where are you planning to go next?"
