Chapter 90 Yang Wanli's Breakthrough! If Heaven deceives me, I will shatter Heaven!
Yang Wanli took the whip from Shen Yan and lashed it at Zeng Huaijin.
Hearing his screams, the anger I felt at the Ministry of Justice subsided considerably.
Once the knot in her heart was untied, the gloom on her face vanished.
Seeing that he was getting more and more into it, Shen Yan quickened his movements even more.
Zeng Huaijin's screams began to weaken.
Shen Yan said softly, "Lord Yang, that's enough. If we keep beating the prisoner, he'll be beaten to death."
Yang Wanli then came to his senses and smiled as he handed the whip back to Shen Yan.
"He got off easy. Your idea is good; it definitely makes me feel much better."
After Shen Yan summoned Li Jianzhong to treat Zeng Huaijin, he prepared to send Yang Wanli away from the prison.
On the way, Yang Wanli asked, "Shen Yan, if you had an enemy but were powerless to avenge them, what would you do?"
Shen Yan said, "Then naturally we should accumulate strength. A gentleman takes his revenge even after ten years."
"What if that person is as powerful as the heavens? What would you do then?"
"Then break through this barrier. As long as I am powerful enough, heaven and earth will naturally be unable to block me out."
Yang Wanli looked at Shen Yan, whose expression was calm but whose words were full of heroic spirit.
He couldn't help but laugh and say, "Good! Well said! Even heaven and earth cannot hide me."
As Yang Wanli took a step forward, his aura began to gradually rise.
Two steps.
Three steps.
His momentum reached its peak after seven steps.
This aura put pressure on Shen Yan, and the Imperial Guards outside the prison also felt its astonishing presence.
They quickly moved away, feeling suffocated if they were in that situation.
The Imperial Guards looked at Shen Yan with shock on their faces.
"Shen Yusi is terrifyingly calm and collected even when he's next to Lord Yang."
"Indeed, even when I'm ten steps away from Lord Yang, I can hardly bear it."

At this time.
Luo Zhan, the commander of the Imperial Guards of the Heavenly Prison, came over upon hearing the sound.
Seeing the aura emanating from Yang Wanli, they immediately understood that he was breaking through.
He silenced his men and they watched him from a distance.
Luo Zhan himself was a seventh-rank martial artist, and he saw that Yang Wanli's aura was like heaven and earth.
He thought to himself, "Could it be that Lord Yang is about to break through to the upper three ranks?"
Then he saw Shen Yan, dressed in the robes of a prison official, standing to one side.
His pupils constricted slightly, and his face showed shock.
He considered himself to be at the seventh rank, unable to stand beside Yang Wanli as easily as Shen Yan.
"Just what level is Lord Shen at? Is he truly a peerless martial arts genius as rumored?"
Yang Wanli stood still, his eyes closed.
A strong wind suddenly swept across the open space, and Shen Yan stood protectively beside him, quietly waiting for him to complete his breakthrough.
for a long time.
Yang Wanli, overjoyed at his successful breakthrough, said to Shen Yan, "I cannot express my gratitude for your great kindness; I will always remember your protection."
Although no one here should dare to interfere with his breakthrough, there's always a chance of something going wrong.
Only now did Yang Wanli understand what Shen Yan had told him a few days earlier.
He thought to himself, "So it turns out that what he meant when he said he just wanted to cultivate quietly in the Heavenly Prison was the truth."
He just broke through to the fourth rank, and is very close to the upper third rank.
There is a great chance that I will reach that point in my lifetime.
Shen Yan was able to easily block the aura of a fourth-grade martial artist, indicating that his strength must have reached the middle grade.
Yang Wanli clicked his tongue in amazement: "I thought that if he could break through to the upper three ranks before the age of forty, he would already be a genius. I never expected that Shen Yannian would reach the middle three ranks at just over twenty years old."
He couldn't help but look forward to the day when Shen Yan broke through to the upper three ranks.
Yang Wanli then realized that his words about breaking the sky with his own hands and making the heavens and earth no longer able to block his view were not just empty talk.
After sending Yang Wanli out of the prison.
Shen Yan looked around at the surprised gazes, somewhat puzzled.
Recalling the commotion when Yang Wanli broke through, I suddenly understood.
"Was my performance just now a little too astonishing?"
Zeng Mansion.
The Zeng family never expected that someone in the prison would actually dare to torture their own family members.
Zeng Wencheng was furious when he heard that Zeng Huaijin had been whipped by Shen Yan.
"How dare this lowly prison warden bully me like this? This is simply outrageous!"
Yang Wanli dared not make a move; what was a mere prison warden afraid of?
Just as he was about to call for men to ambush Shen Yan on his way home from work.
Zeng Wang rushed over.
"Master, this Shen Yan is difficult to deal with!"
Zeng Wencheng frowned and said, "They're just members of the Shen family, not even relatives. What's so untouchable about them?"
"There are rumors that Shen Yan has already reached the middle third rank of martial artist."
"What?! Mid-Rank Three?!"
Zeng Wencheng exclaimed in surprise, not to mention how much effort it would take to deal with a mid-level third-grade martial artist.
Shen Yan, who is only in his early twenties, has already become a mid-level third-grade martial artist, so he must be highly valued by the Shen family.
Regardless of whether it succeeds or not, taking action against him is no different from tearing off the mask of civility. Li Xuanye is at a critical moment.
At this point, it would be unwise to antagonize Dingguo Gong.
Zeng Wencheng gritted his teeth.
"Forget it, let's just consider it a lesson for Huaijin, so he won't cause trouble all the time."
After all, Zeng Shihong had gone to great lengths to protect him.
They have completely offended Yang Wanli, even though Yang Wanli and the Zeng family were never on good terms to begin with.
In the evening, the Zeng family sent someone to deliver the silver to the prison.
It was Ma Danian who received him; this was the first time he had received money from the Zeng family in this way.
A few thin sheets of paper gave him a dreamlike feeling.
"When did the Heavenly Prison become so arrogant?"
With the silver notes in his hand, Ma Danian straightened his back a bit more.
He delivered the silver notes to Shen Yan's cell, saying as if seeking credit, "Sir, both the Zeng and Yan families have sent their silver."
Shen Yan said calmly, "Yes, give it to Qi Xuan and put it in the account. The expenses incurred in prison will be deducted from here."
Seeing Shen Yan's nonchalant attitude, Ma Danian couldn't help but sigh inwardly, "Was all of this within the master's expectations?"
He didn't expect that Shen Yan's promise that the two families would send money would actually come true in less than a day.
It's as if they can predict the future.
As for the Yan family, they had already sent money, and Shen Yan hadn't even tortured Yan Yun yet.
The Yan family wisely sent the silver to the prison.
The fact that Yang Wanli imprisoned the children of these two families in the imperial prison naturally caused a huge uproar in Bianjing.
However, ordinary people are unaware of all this.
His story circulated only among the upper classes of Bianjing (Kaifeng), and Yang Wanli quickly became a household name.
Everyone sighed, wondering if Yang Wanli had gone mad, fearing that their own family might be next.
Fortunately, his crazy behavior was stopped, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
The servants of the Zeng and Yan families who were imprisoned in the imperial prison were soon taken to the execution ground and beheaded.
Shen Yan couldn't help but shake his head.
These people certainly don't deserve sympathy; their hands are stained with blood.
That's just how the world is; it forces people to resort to cannibalism.
As a servant, one naturally dares not disobey one's master's orders.
After all, gaining the favor of one's master could indeed lead to a meteoric rise.
Disobeying the master's orders would certainly result in death.
Insignificant beings like ants and weeds naturally cannot control their own destiny.
The more Shen Yan learned, the more determined he became to become stronger.
Only the strong have choices; the weak can only wait for pity.
The year-end is approaching.
The Duke's Mansion's annual banquet is about to begin.
This year, Shen Yan also received an invitation to leave.
It's not surprising that he received the invitation, given his current strength.
It would be strange if I didn't receive a greeting.
Looking at the gold-embossed invitation in his hand, Shen Yan couldn't help but sigh, "This is the first time I've ever attended a Shen family gathering in my entire life."
