Chapter 88: Iwasa

  A ruthless look flashed across his face, Yi Chen looked up at the newcomer after shaking off that powerful force, only to find that it was a woman.

  She wore a cyan long shirt, her skin was as white as snow in spring, she had a tall and slender figure, her fingers were delicate, her red lips were like fire, her eyes shone like agate, but that perfect face was icy cold.

  "Gu Hu's granddaughter Gu Yun?" In clearing her appearance, Yi Lin behind Yi Chen said a slightly surprised word.

  "Gu Yun?" Hearing this familiar yet strange name, Yi Chen was visibly taken aback, and after reacting, his eyes flashed with a solemn expression.

  If Yì Chén didn't remember incorrectly, Gǔ Yùn was Gǔ Lín's older sister. At that time, this name had caused quite a stir in the Imperial Capital.

  In the Imperial Capital, almost no one did not know Gu Yun's name. The reason was very simple: she had received a sixth-level beast soul from the start, entered the Star Soul Realm at sixteen, and the Chen Soul Realm at seventeen.

  Apart from this, at the age of seventeen, he became a disciple of Mo Jian Shi Xie Hui Zong, and just this one fact is enough to make people remember Gu Yun's name.

  Before, Yi Chen often heard people mention her name, but later Gu Yun rarely appeared, only hearing that she seemed to have gone out for training.

  "You dare to lay hands on a disciple of my Gu family, you Yi family are really getting arrogant." Gu Yun's clear eyes stared at Yi Chen, saying a cold and detached sentence.

  "Hmph." As soon as the words fell, a powerful aura burst out from her body and pressed down on Yi Chen like a tidal wave.

  That aura was too strong, at this moment, Yi Chen felt as if there was a huge mountain pressing down on his body, making him unable to breathe.

  "Quasi-Huang Soul Realm?" His face changed, and Yi Chen hastily activated his soul power to counter the aura brought by Gu Yun, while a hint of shock flashed in his mind.

  Some people had speculated that Gu Yun should have entered the Quasi-Huang Hun Realm, but it was not confirmed. Now her aura can explain everything.

  "It seems that Gu Yun's breakthrough to the quasi-Huangyun realm is not a rumor, it seems that the Gu family has produced another expert." Many onlookers looked at Gu Yun with shocked gazes, and after reacting, they discussed it among themselves.

  "Indeed, you have a couple of tricks up your sleeve, no wonder you're so ruthless in your dealings."

  A cold voice escaped from Gu Yun's red lips, and then the breath she released became even stronger, pressing down on Yi Chen's forehead and causing hot sweat to flow out.

  "Miss Gu Yun, spare him." Yi Lin watched as he was about to get anxious and hastily called out in a soft voice.

  "You are also a member of the Yi family." Gu Yun turned her head to look at Yi Lin, and then separated a strand of aura, which pressed towards Yi Lin.

  "Little niece, this is our Jia family's territory, don't cause any trouble here."

  Just as the aura was about to overwhelm him, a bright and cheerful laugh sounded from behind Yi Chen, followed by an even more powerful aura that blocked Gu Yun's aura and pushed away the aura that had been pressing down on Yi Chen.

  "Ah." The pressure on his body completely disappeared, and Yi Chen let out a sigh of relief. He turned his head to look back, only to see a stout figure leading a group of people walking up, who was none other than Jia Ding.

  By Jia Ding's side was an old figure, who was Yi Chen's grandfather, Yi Siqing.

  "Uncle Ah, Uncle Jia." Seeing the two men walking up, Yi Chen called out softly.

  "Are you okay?" Yi Si Qing turned his head to look at Yi Chen and asked.

  Upon hearing this, Yi Chen lightly shook his head and then turned to look at Gu Yun.

  "Hmph." When she saw Yi Qing and Jia Ding, Gu Yun let out a cold hum, her face showing displeasure.

  "Little niece actually advanced to quasi-yellow soul realm, congratulations!" Jia Ding said with a merchant's characteristic sly smile.

  Yi Si Qing's eyebrows furrowed slightly, imperceptibly. Gu Yun had advanced to the quasi-yellow soul boundary, and another powerful expert had emerged from the Gu family. The Yi family's situation would once again be at a disadvantage.

  "Hmph." Gu Yun didn't respond, her face still carrying an air of pride and coldness, and she let out a light hum, obviously still resentful about Jia Ding's earlier move.

  "Cold and beautiful, unfortunately it's black." Yi Chen couldn't help but mutter.

  "Hmm?" Just as his words fell, Gu Yun seemed to have noticed something, and with a cold gaze, he looked at Yi Chen, a surge of air pressing down on him.

  "Shameless."

  Yi Chen definitely didn't expect it, but Yi Si Qing wouldn't let her have her way so easily. With a light drink, a domineering aura burst out from his body, blocking Gu Yun's aura and sending it back. Then he pounced on Gu Yun.

  "You actually laid hands on some of your juniors, Old Man Yi, aren't you ashamed?"

  A cold smile emerged, a figure flashed by, appearing in front of Gu Yun. At the same time, a breath of air seeped out from his body and quickly approached.

  "Boom." Two auras collided, a dull thud echoed through the air, and that space became distorted.

  "Gu Hu." Yi Chen's gaze cleared as he looked at the approaching person, his eyes narrowing slightly, flashing with two sharp glints.

  "You're finally here, I thought you weren't going to show up for this auction." Yisi Qing lazily withdrew his gaze.

  "If I hadn't come, who knows how far your family would have gone in their tyrannical ways." Gu Huo also withdrew his spiritual energy and looked at Gu Dong, who had been injured by Yi Chen.

  "People are doing things, heaven is watching. I, Yixi, have always been guilt-free when doing things for my family. It's you who should ask your own conscience." Yixi Qing said with a faint smile.

  "A good deed done by man is watched by heaven."

  A gloomy and eerie laughter echoed behind Gu Hu, this voice seemed to have a magical power that made everyone feel the temperature on the scene drop by several degrees, and they couldn't help but shiver.

  "The President of the Magician's Association, Iwasa." Yi Chen looked towards the source of the sound and immediately saw a figure wearing a black robe walking slowly towards him, followed by a group of magicians.

  When they saw him appear, the monks who were watching from a distance all had a look of reverence in their eyes.

  "Teacher." When he saw Iwasa arrive, Koyū bowed to him, while the former simply waved his hand lightly.

  "It's been a long time, Master Yi." Walking up to Gu Huo's side, Yan Su nodded slightly and then turned his head towards Yi Si Qing, saying in a cold tone.

  "It's actually Master Iwasa, I didn't expect you to attend this auction as well." Yisi Qing said with a smile.

  "I heard that this auction has some pretty good stuff, and I was worried that the Demon Appraisal Convention wouldn't have any suitable items for appraisal." Ishizuka's voice had no emotion.

  "Is Master Iwasa referring to the soul stone that came from Chona?" Jia Ding said, although he called him master, but his face didn't have a hint of respect.

  "Soul Spirit Stone?" Yi Chen had been listening from the side, and when he heard the words "Soul Spirit Stone", his curiosity was piqued.

  "Could it be that you're able to summon Iwasa in person with a Five-Star Soul Spirit Stone?"

  Yi Chen couldn't help but speculate that if it wasn't a five-star Soul Spirit Stone, it would be hard to get Yan Jian to attach such importance to it. From this, one could infer that the grade of that Soul Spirit Stone wouldn't be too low.
