The sword came out of nowhere and was surrounded by a radiant energy. It struck right on the mace. Just the impact from its tip was so strong that it shocked even Lin Fan. This guy is strong. Does he want to rob me?
Or is it someone from the Sunshine Sect who came to the rescue? If that’s really the case, I can really go all out to my heart’s content.
“Who is it? Come out.” Lin Fan, retreating to one side, glared at the surroundings. He was in the depths of the Thousand Deep Cave. It was absolutely impossible to meet so many people here at once.
There could only be one reason for this, and that was that the other party came here on purpose.
Right at that instant, four figures shot over from various directions and landed on the ground.
Lin Fan immediately checked the four out. Only one of them was using a sword. Obviously, the person who had just attacked with the sword was this man. More importantly, that attack carried an intense bloodlust. He obviously wanted to kill Lin Fan.
Mo Jingzhe immediately came to Lin Fan’s side and said in a low voice, looking at the four vigilantly, “They don’t seem to have good intentions.”
Lin Fan didn’t get angry this time. “Oh, I couldn’t tell until you informed me.”
Mo Jingzhe wasn’t embarrassed by this. “Don’t worry, I am not timid. These people are obviously related to the Sunshine Sect, I will definitely kill them here.”
Lin Fan didn’t want to speak anymore. He could clearly tell that Mo Jingzhe was mentally retarded. He had no idea of the current situation. The four weren’t any weaker than Luo Zhengyi. If he fought them, he wouldn’t even know how he died.
“Wait, why does this guy look so familiar?” Mo Jingzhe kept on staring at one of the four. After looking at him carefully, he couldn’t help but cry in surprise. He pointed at the sword user among the four and said, “Aren’t you Jian Wuchen, first-class inner disciple of the Magnificent Flame Sect, who is also known as Sword Master Wuchen?
“I have had dinner with you. Don’t you remember me?”
Then he patted Lin Fan’s shoulder and said, “It’s alright. I know him. He is our people. However…”
Lin Fan was shocked. He didn’t expect the four to be from his own sect. However, the opposite party had made a move on him with a clear intent to kill.
Who could it be?
Jun Wutian? Or is it Wan Zhongtian?
These two are the most suspicious. As for Liu Ruochen, forget it! No matter how beautiful she is, it’s impossible for four disciples to come thousands of miles to kill me in the Thousand Deep Cave at her word.
Furthermore, my teacher, Elder Tian Xu would not let them kill me just for some beauty. So, it’s either Jun Wutian or Wan Zhongtian.
You kids, just wait. I, Lin Fan, don’t care who it is between you, but you both are dead.
Before Lin Fan could speak up, Mo Jingzhe stepped out and asked, wonderingly, “Brother Wuchen, these are Sunshine Sect disciples, how could attack your own people? This guy is still one of yours.”
Jian Wuchen furrowed his brow. He hadn’t expected to meet Mo Jingzhe. He knew that the young master of the Mo Family had something wrong with his brains.
The four mostly cultivated in seclusion and rarely showed their faces.
This time, they had followed Lin Fan all the way here to kill him under their senior brother’s command. But now it seemed one more person had to die at their hands.
However, the situation had changed. They hadn’t expected to find the disciples of the Sunshine Sect here. Apparently, everyone had to be killed now.
At this instant, Jian Wuchen stepped out and stared at Lin Fan. “The Magnificent Flame Sect has made peace with the Sunshine Sect. Everything is normal between the sects. As a disciple of the Magnificent Flame Sect, how can you kill Sunshine Sect disciples? Won’t it destroy the peace between the two sects?”
Luo Zhengyi relaxed a little bit upon hearing this, but he still maintained a certain level of vigilance. He cupped his fists and said, “Thank you. Our Sunshine Sect and the Magnificent Flame Sect has a cooperation agreement, we are like brothers and sisters. But this guy killed my junior brothers, please uphold justice.”
Lin Fan knew that this matter was far from over. He immediately whispered to Mo Jingzhe, “You should go, I don’t speak stupid.”
“Hmph.” Mo Jingzhe snorted, expressing his dissatisfaction. Then, he righteously said, “Why would I, Mo Jingzhe, let others cheat me? Since those bastards of the Sunshine Sect are here today, I can’t give up before they are dead. And at the same time, you are being attacked by your fellow disciples. These things are big taboos in the sects. I will let them understand that these kinds of things are nothing but a joke in the eyes of outsiders.”
Lin Fan really wanted to slap Mo Jingzhe to death. Where in bloody hell does this retard come from?
“Well, talk, what do you guys want?” Lin Fan went straight to the point.
Jian Wuchen didn’t speak but a disciple by his side said, “What do we want!? You killed a Sunshine Sect disciple and broke the relationship between two sects, you need to return with us to meet the elder.”
The sidelined Luo Zhengyi smiled. Had it been someone else than these four, it might have been hard for him to explain the situation here. But now the situation has changed, this is really good.
“You are lying, try harder next time. Do you know who my teacher is? My teacher is Elder Tian Xu, and you say some elder dares to punish me!? Even if someone dares to, he will be slapped to death by my teacher.
“And you, what are you smiling about, you Sunshine Sect dumbass? Do you know what these people are here for? They came to kill me. My teacher is the top elder of the sect, you think they will let you go? Let me warn you, you will surely be stabbed in the back.”
Lin Fan, looking at the smiling Luo Zhengyi, was annoyed. In his current situation, he had no choice but to drag some fools over.
Luo Zhengyi was dumbstruck by this. He had no idea of Lin Fan’s background. When he came to know, he changed his mind immediately. If this is really the case, I’m afraid I really won’t live to see another day.
“Bull***t, you killed a Sunshine Sect disciple. It’s a serious crime and yet you are not pleading guilty. You need to follow us back, admit your errors, and ask for punishment.”
Lin Fan shook his head and looked at Luo Zhengyi. “Tell me, do you believe them? You yourself have a good idea about how the relationship between the Magnificent Flame Sect and the Sunshine Sect is. It’s already a blessing that they aren’t killing you right this second. Tell me, how fearless do you think they might be to arrest me, the direct disciple of Elder Tian Xu? So, if you still have some brains, come closer quickly. We should let our matter rest for the time being.
“I promise, as long as you join hands with us, I won’t kill you in the Thousand Deep Cave, what do you think?
“Think well about it. If you trust me, you still might have a chance to live, but if you don’t, you will die for sure.
“And I, Lin Fan, swear to the heavens that, if I break my oath, I shall be struck by lightning after I exit the Thousand Deep Cave, dying without a burial.”
Immediately, some mysterious power could be sensed above Lin Fan; this was the formation of an oath.
Lin Fan could already move the world with his current spirit, essence, and energy. And quite naturally, an oath was effective as well.
After having been warned by Lin Fan, Luo Zhengyi realized that there were many things not right with this matter. As he gazed at the four, his determination started to waver. He wasn’t a fool. He could already make a general guess.
It will be really difficult to escape in the Thousand Deep Cave. More importantly, their cultivation is far better than mine. If they want to kill me, I’m afraid I really won’t be able to do anything.
“Alright, we shall put aside our grievances for the time being.” Luo Zhengyi came to a decision after thinking it through.
Lin Fan immediately signaled him to stop in his place. “You also swear, otherwise I will always have to be afraid of you stabbing me in the back.”
Luo Zhengyi steeled his heart and swore, “Okay, I, Luo Zhengyi, swear that, if I stab Lin Fan in the back, I shall be struck by lightning and die.”
The oath could be sensed by heaven and earth.
Lin Fan beckoned Luo Zhengyi. “Come over, stand by my side. Today, our life and death are left to fate.”
As a disciple of the Sunshine Sect, Luo Zhengyi had a high status. Having been forced to stoop to this level was nothing more than a disgrace, but he had no choice, he could only do so to survive.
“You are being fooled by his fallacies. It seems I can only take you all down today,” Jian Wuchen proclaimed in a cold voice. With us here, these three can’t escape anyway.
Meanwhile, the man in yellow, who had his arm crushed before, hid behind a boulder. He didn’t dare to make so much as a peep. As for Zhang Zhenhu, who was lying on the ground and bleeding from his mouth, he struggled for a bit before dying.
Lin Fan immediately gained some points.
He furrowed his brow as he checked his total points. I am still a little short.
Right then, Lin Fan’s gaze fell upon Luo Zhengyi.
Luo Zhengyi happened to have relaxed his vigilance against Lin Fan because of Lin Fan’s oath. When he saw Lin Fan looking at him, he nodded silently as a sign of his approval before stepping out.
“Only I, Luo Zhengyi, am in control of my life. My life is mine, not even heavens-”
Bang!
Just as he started speaking, a mace bashed on his head, smashing it into nothing in a flash.
“Sorry, I have to break my oath.”
