The Cosmic Age: Subverting the Universe

At this moment, the sky suddenly darkened, as if dark clouds were pressing down on the sky, and then a bolt of lightning cut through the sky. Lei Zun, like a god from heaven, descended upon the battlefield with a loud bang.

Upon seeing this, the disciples of Fenglei Pavilion immediately burst into deafening cheers, "The Pavilion Master is back! Fenglei Pavilion is saved!"

Elder Feng was particularly moved. He burst into tears and his voice trembled with excitement: "Pavilion Master! You are finally back! I have waited so hard for you!"

After Lei Zun calmed everyone down for a short while, his bell-like eyes instantly locked onto Xiao Yan, his gaze as sharp as a torch, as if he could see through everything. "Xiao Yan, it's you who dares to covet my Fenglei Pavilion?" His voice was deep and powerful, with unquestionable majesty.

Faced with this sudden questioning, Xiao Yan felt a strong pressure and couldn't help but look at Xun'er beside him.

However, Xun'er just took a step back, her eyes full of trust and encouragement for Xiao Yan.

Xiao Yan turned his gaze to Medusa again, only to see Medusa snort coldly and also choose to retreat, but her cold eyes revealed her recognition of Xiao Yan's strength.

Isolated and helpless, Xiao Yan's eyes finally fell on Tang Xiaowu. She waved her fists excitedly, her face full of desire for battle: "Come on, Xiao Yan! Beat him up!"

Xiao Yan smiled bitterly, "You all have higher cultivation than me, so why do you retreat?" But his dignity and responsibility as a man made him unable to retreat.

He straightened his back and looked at Lei Zun with a firm gaze: "Yes, it is me, Xiao Yan, who wants to compete with your Fenglei Pavilion. If you are dissatisfied, just come over!"

Lei Zun's figure flashed, and lightning swirled around him, as if he really had the power of thousands of troops. He shouted, "Little boy Xiao Yan, watch out!"

Then, he swung out a punch violently, the wind from his fist whistled and brought about bursts of thunder, but upon closer inspection, the fist force strangely turned when it was about to touch Xiao Yan, and rushed straight into the sky, exploding into a gorgeous thundercloud.

Xiao Yan laughed loudly, "Lei Zun, your aim is not good enough!"

Lei Zun said angrily, "Xiao Yan, you just dodged my punch by luck. Try my punch again."

Seeing this, Xiao Yan was not willing to be outdone. He quickly formed seals with his hands and chanted, "Burning Art, Flame Dragon Roars to the Sky!"

The "battle" between Lei Zun and Xiao Yan seemed to be earth-shattering, but in fact it was a subtle and complicated contest. Lei Zun did not dare to hurt Xiao Yan at all because of Su Che's order. Therefore, his attacks always avoided Xiao Yan's vital points just right, seemingly fierce but actually weak.

Xiao Yan, on the other hand, became more and more courageous as the battle went on. He had thought that it would be a evenly matched duel, but he had not expected that Lei Zun's attack would be so weak.

He tried to stop several times to show respect, but Lei Zun's attack, which seemed fierce but was actually bluffing, forced him to defend himself again and again. He even inadvertently used a few sharp moves to force Lei Zun to retreat again and again, and finally half-knelt on the ground, looking extremely embarrassed.

Lei Zun was still panting, looking up at Xiao Yan, with a complicated light flashing in his eyes. He took a deep breath, opened his arms exaggeratedly, and announced loudly:

"The flames of the Flame Alliance have burned the sky. Once the order is issued, all the worlds will submit! Xiao Yan's name is as high as the sun. In the land of Central Continent, you are the only one who can rule! I, Thunder Lord, have been defeated! I am willing to serve Xiao Yan as my master. From now on, Fenglei Pavilion will be incorporated into the Flame Alliance and we will work together for the great cause!"

As soon as these words came out, there was an uproar all around. The disciples of Fenglei Pavilion looked at each other, unable to believe their ears. Even Xiao Yan was full of question marks, with an unbelievable look on his face: "This... This is too much of a letdown, isn't it?"

Seeing this, Lei Zun gave a bitter smile and explained, "Master Xiao Yan, I didn't let you win on purpose. It's just that you are too strong. In the Central Continent, the strong are respected. Since you have such strength and the support of Master Su, my Fenglei Pavilion should follow the trend and submit to the Yan League."

Xiao Yan felt mixed emotions when he heard this. He had originally wanted to rely on his own strength to gain a firm foothold in Zhongzhou step by step, but he had never expected to enter Zhongzhou in this way and become the leader of the Yan League.

He slowly turned around and faced the people from Fenglei Pavilion and the members of Yanmeng who were slightly shocked by this sudden change, and said in a deep voice:

"Everyone, I, Xiao Yan, originally wanted to use the sword in my hand to carve my own glorious chapter on this land of Central Continent. However, things are unpredictable. Although what happened today was not what I wanted, it also made me deeply realize that true strength is not only the bravery of an individual, but also the power of unity and wisdom."

Tang Xiaowu's eyes were like a mirror, and she secretly said with satisfaction: "You have been controlled by Nalan Yanran these years. Xun'er and Medusa ran away, and the key is that Zi Yan, the little foodie, did not follow you. Without Zi Yan's dragon seal, you can't devour the Three Thousand Flames. The road to becoming an emperor is broken.

This time, you have a new guard, Xiaoying, and a new wife, Feng Qing'er. You also have the extraordinary power of Yanmeng, and Zi Yan will soon return to your side because of your legend.

The most important thing is, if Nalan Yanran cannot let go of the power of Yunlan Sect, she will not come to Zhongzhou to find you. If she comes, it means that she has become your little fan. The road to becoming an emperor has been continued for you. "

Xiao Yan paused, his tone more resolute: "Since fate has pushed me to this position, I will shoulder the responsibility of the leader of the Yan League, not only for my own glory, but also for all the brothers and sisters who follow the Yan League. I will lead the Yan League to a more glorious future with a fair heart, and let every corner of Zhongzhou be filled with the name of our Yan League!"

As soon as the words fell, there was a commotion in the crowd, especially Elder Feng, who was full of indignation and almost roared: "How can this be possible! How can our Fenglei Pavilion easily surrender to others? Pavilion Master, how can you make such a decision!"

However, Lei Zun's eyes were as cold as ice. He turned around abruptly, staring at Elder Feng with a sharp gaze, and said in a low and powerful voice: "Elder Feng, you are wrong! You and I have all witnessed the strength and wisdom of Alliance Leader Xiao Yan. The situation in Central Continent is changing rapidly, and only the strong can gain a foothold. If Fenglei Pavilion wants to survive in troubled times, it must adapt to the times!

Let me ask you, how long did I, the Wind and Thunder Pavilion, hold out under the attack of Alliance Leader Xiao Yan? Moreover, even I was defeated by Xiao Yan, so is there anyone among you who is stronger than me? "

Lei Zun's question was like thunder, instantly shocking the whole audience. Elder Feng's face turned pale and blue, and he could only lower his head in indignation and said nothing more. Under Lei Zun's majesty, the others also put away their dissatisfaction and chose to remain silent.

Seeing this, Xiao Yan announced loudly: "From today on, I, Xiao Yan, will be the leader of the Yan League! Let us work together to create a brilliant future for the Yan League!"

As soon as these words came out, the disciples and members of Fenglei Pavilion seemed to be ignited by an invisible force. Their blood boiled and they shouted in unison:

“The flames of the Flame Alliance burn the sky; once the order is issued, all the worlds submit! Xiao Yan’s name is as high as the sun; in the land of Zhongzhou, I am the only one who reigns supreme!”

The slogans resounded through the sky, shaking the air around them, as if even the heaven and earth changed color.
