Even Yan Mengtao, who had been madly ranting, was completely dumbfounded.
Because in terms of both temperament and appearance, An Yan was more than enough to kill her a hundred times over and then throw her into the dirt to be trampled on heavily.
Such a huge gap turned Yan Mengtao into a complete fool.
When An Yan approached Xue An, it was then that Xue An indifferently said, "Now, do you realize where you fell short?"
Under such a nearly fatal blow, Yan Mengtao’s face fluctuated wildly, and then she burst into a hideous cackle, like a drowning person unwilling to let go of their last straw.
"Very well! I admit I’ve lost, but don’t you get too smug too soon, Mr. Xue! See that? The number of powerful forces from all sides gathering outside is growing, and this will be your graveyard!"
At this, Yan Mengtao laughed triumphantly, "Because I have already sent a message out through Secret Technique two days ago, telling them you’re healing from serious injuries. I estimate that the news should spread soon, and when that happens, the strong ones from all of Lihen Heaven will probably come running! With the strong ones gathered here from all sides, Mr. Xue, no matter how powerful you are, do you really think you can take on all the experts of the entire Lihen Heaven?"
Saying this, Yan Mengtao’s face showed an expression of extreme spite, "By then, as long as I still have a breath, I will personally witness how you are brought down to the ground! Hahaha!"
The laughter was filled with a spine-chilling hatred.
Everyone’s expression changed, especially Yan Meishu, who became enraged. She flashed forward, reaching Yan Mengtao in an instant, then grabbed her clothes and slapped her across the face several times.
Snap, snap, snap.
After the slapping was done, Yan Mengtao’s mouth and nose were bleeding, but the hatred in her eyes didn’t dissipate at all; instead, she chuckled spitefully, "Yan Meishu, if you’ve got the guts, kill me now! Anyway, even if I die, you all won’t live much longer!"
"You..." Yan Meishu truly did feel the urge to kill, drawing out the dagger she carried on her and preparing to act.
At that moment, Xue An suddenly let out a soft sigh, "Wait!"
Yan Meishu was startled and turned to look at Xue An, "Xue An, brother?"
Xue An gave her a smile, "Step back!"
Although she did not understand what Xue An was intending to do, Yan Meishu let go and stepped aside.
At the same time, Xue An looked up and down at Yan Mengtao, and wherever his gaze fell, Yan Mengtao trembled all over, still trying to tough it out, even scoffing at Xue An with a sneer.
Facing the fierce but cowardly Yan Mengtao, Xue An also smiled and then said lightly, "Interesting, I find you quite interesting!"
"Hmph!" Yan Mengtao snorted coldly, "Mr. Xue, what do you want to say?"
Xue An replied with a light smile, "From the beginning of your plan to the current showdown, I’ve noticed one major characteristic of people like you: it’s never your fault, the fault always lies with others, with the world! Even when you run out of reasons for excuses, you’ll still find ways to drag a few others down with you; otherwise, you won’t be satisfied. Am I right?"
These words had many people inwardly nodding in agreement; Hu Ying even let out a long breath in hate, "Brother Xue’s words are spot on, this woman is exactly like that, it’s infuriating!"
Yan Mengtao shuddered, a flash of panic crossed her eyes, but she still managed to say toughly, "So what if it is? Mr. Xue, you should be thinking about how to escape from here now! Hahahaha!"
Yan Mengtao tried to burst into laughter, but her laughter was cut short by Xue An, who said lightly, "Escape? Why would I need to escape?"
"Eh?" Yan Mengtao’s eyes instantly widened, staring blankly at Xue An, "You..."
Xue An smiled and then looked up at the dark crowd on the distant horizon, speaking in a calm tone, "You just said, when all the strong ones from Lihen Heaven have gathered here, you’ll see what I’ll do! I want to tell you now that what I actually want is for all the people to rush here! Because... I still have many things to do!"
These words left everyone in the audience in a state of confusion, not understanding what Xue An meant.
Yan Mengtao felt the same, but she quickly recovered and sneered, "An act of mystification!"
With that said, Xue An’s eyebrows rose and in an instant, the dome of the Lihen Temple turned to nothing, revealing the azure sky above.
