Chapter 180: Sixth Enforcement - Yan Ruoyun
"Are you Sun Zhe?"
Looking at Sun Zhe standing in the middle of the street, the young man asked coldly, showing no concern for the hundreds of onlookers around them, as if they did not exist. It was as if the entire world consisted only of him and Sun Zhe, who seemed slightly dazed, as if he too had been drawn into this strange state.
"Yes, I am Sun Zhe!"
Sun Zhe's eyes suddenly sharpened, immediately sensing something was off. His Divine Consciousness began to operate, but strangely, he did not detect anything unusual; everything seemed perfectly normal.
"I am Song Guiyi from Tian Yun Sect. You killed my junior brother and my master in Wanbingyuan. I have been looking for you for a long time..."
The cold voice echoed through the street, instantly filling Sun Zhe's mind. In that moment, it seemed he could hear nothing else; it was as if this voice was the only sound in existence. Realizing this bizarre situation, Sun Zhe's expression changed slightly.
"Although Song Guiyi's self-created domain cannot compare to the true domains of those Thunder Lords, its peculiarity surpasses them. Song Guiyi is indeed the top talent of Tian Yun Sect in nearly a hundred years, no wonder they are investing so much effort in cultivating him. Perhaps Tian Yun Sect intends to use him to advance to Fifth-Rank Sect. This is Sun Zhe's first encounter with such a situation; he is likely to suffer a bit."
Inside a private room of an inn, the Cold and Stern Young Man observed Sun Zhe trapped within Song Guiyi's domain. A glint of amusement flashed in his eyes as he spoke.
"Song Guiyi's stable position at twenty on the Star Ranking List is closely related to this self-created domain. Even if we were caught off guard and fell into it, we would probably not escape in a short time. With his strength, he can easily suppress Sun Zhe. I want to see what kind of waves this kid can stir up this time."
At this point, Zheng Bin's expression finally revealed a hint of coldness, and a trace of chill surged from deep within his eyes.
"When did he have a grudge against you?"
Hearing Zheng Bin's words, the Cold and Stern Man was taken aback and curiously asked. The two had always been friends, but he had never known when this Sun Zhe had offended Zheng Bin.
"No grudge, but he did something I really dislike..."
Coldly watching the figure below, Zheng Bin replied, while his mind recalled a scene from Hero's Tower.
"Oh."
The Cold and Stern Man responded lightly and said nothing more. He didn't care much about Sun Zhe; calculating his worth, he had no objections. He simply thought Zheng Bin's approach was too troublesome. If it were him, he would have just killed him directly.
Compared to Sun Zhe, he was more interested in Song Guiyi, who had created the Return to One domain.
At this moment, the confrontation between Sun Zhe and Song Guiyi on the street had reached its peak. Although Sun Zhe did not understand how the other party had dragged him into this strange domain, Song Guiyi was indeed standing right in front of him. Compared to the domain used by Yin Yu Zhen Ren back then, this space resembling a domain still fell short.
Glaring coldly at his opponent, although his aura was gradually rising, Sun Zhe was secretly enduring the pain in his body. His internal injuries had not fully healed yet; he needed some more time before he could fight again. If he acted now, it would definitely affect the upcoming Selection Trial.
However, Song Guiyi gave him no chance to refuse. The chilling killing intent locked onto his body, waiting for him to let his guard down before unleashing a frenzied attack. Currently, he had no choice but to rely on the Yin Huai Iron Corpse hiding behind him to feel somewhat at ease.
Sun Zhe could sense that Song Guiyi was indeed an extremely formidable opponent. Among all the opponents he had encountered, aside from the Golden Thunder Elder, who left him with no resistance, and Yin Yu Zhen Ren, who had already been killed by Jingjing, Song Guiyi was probably the strongest.
A trace of cold killing intent slowly emerged in Sun Zhe's eyes. He had made up his mind that as long as Song Guiyi dared to make a move, even if it exposed the Yin Huai Iron Corpse, he would have to take him down. Otherwise, leaving such an opponent alive would be too concerning. Moreover, in this mixed environment of Linwu City, he indeed needed to establish his authority.
With tension in the air, neither side retreated. Song Guiyi turned his right hand, and a seven-foot-long sword appeared in his grasp. This sword was an extremely rare soft sword. With a flick of his wrist, dazzling purple light immediately shimmered along the blade, resembling a purple venomous snake held by Song Guiyi. The tip of the sword constantly shook as if it were a snake's tongue flickering in and out.
Sun Zhe also summoned the North Star Blade; blazing Sword Qi burst forth as a violent aura pushed back against Song Guiyi's presence. On the vast street, their respective auras occupied either side. Although they had not yet truly engaged in battle, their powerful auras clashed above them.
Both pairs of eyes flashed with fierce light as they tightened their grips on their weapons and struck in an instant!
"Stop!"
A chilling voice suddenly echoed through the street, shaking everyone to their core. Even the two combatants, Sun Zhe and Song Guiyi, felt their momentum wane in an instant, and Song Guiyi's domain shattered in a moment. Both retreated simultaneously.
Moments later, a dozen riders came galloping from the other side of the street, the sound of hooves thundering against the ground.
"You..."
Song Guiyi's expression changed dramatically, his eyes instantly turning cold as he looked toward the source of the voice. His gaze revealed an unmistakable anger; since joining the Tian Yun Sect, no one had dared to confront him like this. It was unprecedented for his domain to be so easily shattered after he had created it.
"What have I done... fighting in public, how dare you!"
The icy voice rang out before everyone, revealing a strikingly beautiful young woman clad in exquisite black attire. Her shapely legs straddled her steed, and her fair hands held the reins as she coldly regarded Song Guiyi, her alluring eyes filled with condescension. Behind her were more than ten indifferent-looking men dressed in black.
Their attire clearly marked them as members of Thunder Temple, but unlike the East Hall disciples seen by Sun Zhe at the city gate, these individuals exuded a far more intense Killing Intent, even if their cultivation levels were not significantly higher.
"Song Guiyi pays respects to Left Hall's Yan Zhi Fa!"
Upon seeing the woman's face, Song Guiyi's previously furious demeanor weakened immediately. He hadn't expected that a disciple from Thunder Temple's Left Hall would arrive. Among Thunder Temple's Six Halls, the East and West Halls handled daily affairs while the Left and Right Halls were responsible for law enforcement. Thus, disciples from these halls carried a much heavier Killing Intent.
The Selection Trial held in Linwu Prefecture was jointly overseen by the East Hall, West Hall, and Left Hall. Given the chaotic mix of people within the city, maintaining order fell to the Left Hall, known for its strong Killing Intent.
If it had been an ordinary Left Hall disciple, Song Guiyi wouldn't have cared much. However, it was not just anyone who appeared; it was Yan Ruoyun, one of the top enforcers from Left Hall—a cold and ruthless woman whose reputation ranked among the top three despite being merely a Sixth Enforcement.
"I didn't expect her to come; today's events are likely to end without any spectacle."
A flicker of regret crossed Zheng Bin's eyes from his vantage point in the loft. If Yan Ruoyun had arrived just a moment later, Sun Zhe and Song Guiyi would have clashed. Separating them then would have been far more difficult. Yet Yan Ruoyun arrived perfectly on time and decisively shattered Song Guiyi's domain with her voice.
"Ha ha, this woman is indeed strong-willed. To be honest, I'm a bit afraid of her, but her figure is truly captivating. She's really a thorny rose."
Looking at Yan Ruoyun's alluring figure on horseback, Zheng Bin's companion, the Cold and Stern Man, revealed a hint of ambiguous amusement. Although his status was also quite remarkable, he still dared not covet a woman like Yan Ruoyun.
However, before his smile could fade, a cold gaze shot up from below. His expression changed instantly, and he quickly took two steps back. He exchanged glances with Zheng Bin, nodded slightly, and both hurriedly retreated outside the loft, no longer daring to stay. They were certain that Yan Ruoyun had just noticed them.
What a formidable woman! The two couldn't help but exclaim. There were many strong individuals in Thunder Temple, and Yan Ruoyun was one of the most renowned.
Slowly retracting her gaze from the loft above, Yan Ruoyun's expression flickered slightly, as if she had come to some realization. She then turned her attention to the crowd below, her eyes turning icy as she coldly stated,
"I warn you once again, private fights are prohibited in Linwu City during this period. The lightest punishment will be expulsion from Linwu City and disqualification from the Competition. The heaviest will be the abolishment of your cultivation and execution!"
Her Cold Voice echoed in everyone's ears. Although it came from an enchanting woman, under the immense pressure of her aura, no one dared to entertain any other thoughts or speak in rebuttal. Even Song Guiyi, standing at the forefront, fell silent; facing this woman, he could only consider himself unfortunate.
"You may leave now. If I see you again next time, you will only have one way out: death!"
Pointing at Sun Zhe and the more than fifty people standing behind Song Guiyi, Yan Ruoyun spoke indifferently.
As soon as her words fell, the fifty-odd individuals standing nearby felt as if they had been granted amnesty and immediately fled into the distance, fearing that if they were even a moment late, this female fiend would leave them behind. They had not come to Linwu City for just a day or two; they had heard countless tales of Sixth Enforcement Yan Ruoyun.
