Lin Fan fell.
Immediately after which, the waterfall of sword energy also collapsed into nothing. Everything reverted back to their original appearances.
Not even Huang Xuandao expected that his punch would hit his junior brother. Where did that kid go? I just saw him there.
Jian Wuchen was pushing Mo Jingzhe back, but suddenly, when the situation on the other side came to light, he was taken aback at once. The strength behind his sword suddenly waned, giving Mo Jingzhe the opportunity to counterattack. He was left with no choice but to promptly break away from Mo Jingzhe.
“Junior Brother Huang, what are you doing!?” Jiang Wuchen roared angrily. It never occurred to him that Feng Qingyun would lose his life at Huang Xuandao’s hands.
Huang Xuandao finally came to his senses. He immediately took Feng Qingyun in his arms before justifying himself to Jian Wuchen, “Senior Brother Wuchen, that guy killed Junior Brother.”
“Do you think I’m blind?” Jiang Wuchen retorted sharply. He clearly saw Huang Xuandao shatter Feng Qingyun’s heart. And now he says that kid killed Junior Brother Feng?
“Junior Brother, can you tell Senior Brother that I didn’t kill you?” Huang Xuandao shook Feng Qingyun to prove his innocence. But he just had his heart shattered, and what’s more, he had been pierced through thrice by Lin Fan’s swords. He was already on his last legs. Just as he wanted to speak, his head swooped down as he ceased breathing. He was dead.
Now, Huang Xuandao had to prove his innocence because he could clearly see that his senior brother trusted him no longer from his eyes. “Brother Wuchen, I really didn’t kill Junior Brother. You must believe me. It was that kid, I was about to kill him.”
“That’s right, I killed him. Jian Wuchen, don’t try to frame your teammates.”
Right at that moment, a voice came from behind Mo Jingzhe. Mo Jingzhe’s entire body was immediately drenched in cold sweat. Much to his shock and dismay, someone had appeared behind him without his notice.
But he was immediately relieved when he saw who it was.
Lin Fan was cursing Huang Xuandao a little in his head. F***, he actually stole my target. It was obvious that he was about to die, but he punched him. I couldn’t get my points.
Forget it! It’s just a few hundred points. I can always make it up with the monsters.
Unlike before, Lin Fan was devoid of any injuries. On the contrary, he was brimming with energy.
Jian Wuchen was completely disappointed. Sure enough, there was a traitor in our midst. Otherwise, why isn’t this kid injured even a bit? What’s more, he is full of energy. He doesn’t look like someone who just fought and consumed a lot of his earth energy.
Lin Fan, carrying his hands behind his back, proclaimed proudly, “I, Lin Fan, do everything alone. I killed that guy, it has nothing to do with him.”
Huang Xuandao couldn’t react at first but then he argued strongly, “Senior Brother Wuchen, you heard him, I didn’t kill Junior Brother Feng, it was him.”
Then he glared at Lin fan, towering in rage. “You killed Junior Brother Feng. I will make you pay for it.”
Jian Wuchen looked at Lin Fan before turning his gaze at Huan Xuandao. He was completely enraged. His voice turned grim and cold, “Huan Xuandao, you think I am stupid?”
“Senior Brother, why don’t you believe me? Didn’t he just admit that he killed Junior Brother Feng?” Huang Xuandao was on the verge of losing his mind. He never thought that Jian Wuchen would start to doubt him.
What the hell is going on?
But suddenly, a little realization dawned upon him. He immediately reacted.
“Senior Brother, it’s not like this. Junior Brother trapped him and I was about to kill him, but I don’t know why I hit Junior Brother. I really had no intention of killing Junior Brother,” Huang Xuandao tried to explain.
Lin Fan immediately nodded his agreement. “Yes, yes, he is telling the truth. I don’t know why I suddenly disappeared, but it might be that my domain granted me a teleportation-type super power, which made him unable to react when he came in and punched his junior brother to death.”
Then he looked at the extremely anxious Huang Xuandao and said, “I can only help you explain to this point. As for whether your senior brother will believe you or not, that’s your business. I did my best.
“I, Lin Fan, am upstanding and fear nothing. I am not afraid to admit what I have done. I don’t attack anyone from behind, let alone distort the truth.”
His words were quite awe-inspiring and righteous, but Luo Zhengyi’s corpse on the side was so glaring. It formed a strong contrast.
But these awe-inspiring words sounded completely different in Jian Wuchen’s ears. They were more like, I, Lin Fan, am sinister and despicable. I will never admit what I have done. I like to stab in the back and prefer to confound truth and falsehood.
Immediately after, Jian Wuchen’s gaze turned cold as he looked at Huang Xuandao. A bitter cold immediately seeped into Huang Xuandao’s heart. “So, you finally admit that you killed Junior Brother.”
Huang Xuandao flustered anxiously. “Senior Brother, listen to me…!”
Jian Wuchen coldly let out a snort as he flicked his sleeve. “Shut up, I never would have expected to have a traitor amongst us. Very good, very f***ing good.”
Lin Fan found it bothersome to deal with these two people now. Who would have thought that these three would joint attack me. It was really scary. However, the Transformation into God Swordsmanship was the one to put me into a trap. I will remember you.
“How was it? Did you beat Jian Wuchen?” asked Lin Fan.
Mo Jingzhe shook his head in response and sighed, “I couldn’t beat him. I originally thought that taking the Divine Art of Startling Dragons a step further with my talent and hard work was an extraordinary feat. It was enough to challenge an expert of higher level. Who would have thought that Jian Wuchen’s sword would be so fearsome? He could move it like his hands and feet. He has already mastered it. His every sword followed some kind of strange trajectory. I have suffered a lot at his hands. Had I not been stronger, I would have already fallen into dire straits.”
Lin Fan looked at Mo Jingzhe. He couldn’t add anything. Everything Mo Jingzhe said was pretty reasonable. Very good, very, very good!
But suddenly…
Lin Fan noticed billowing black clouds in the distance.
How could there be dark clouds in the Thousand Deep Cave?
Roar!
A howl like that of a ghost swept through the cave. It sounded cruel, terrifying, and evil.
“Thank you, Lord Ming, for venturing deep into the danger zone to gather monster blood and help me recover my body.” The man in gray expressed his gratitude. At first, he had believed that he would remain crippled for life; it never occurred to him that Lord Ming would actually use a heaven-defying skill and let his severed limbs grow back by combining the blood and bones of monsters, let him regain his lower body.
“Hmph, if it were not for the Divine Religion, you think I would have saved a wastrel like you?” a man with a skull mask next to the man in gray said. It was difficult to make out his appearance.
His voice was cold and terrifying; not even a single trace of emotion could be found in it. When it fell into the ears of the man in gray, he felt as if he had fallen into an ice cave. He kept shivering.
“Yes, yes, Lord Ming is right. I am trash. I am trash.”
Suddenly, the man in gray looked ahead and noticed a group of people standing. However, upon noticing someone among them, he screamed at the top of his voice, “Lord Ming, it’s him! He is the one who made me like this!”
However, he didn’t recognize Mo Jingzhe. Obviously, it was because Mo Jingzhe had been away from Spirit Wind City for two years, and the Divine Religion branch had started hiding in Spirit Wind City during those two years.
When Lin Fan and the others noticed this evil aura, their hearts tightened at once. They suddenly had a bad feeling.
Lin Fan focused his gaze into the distance and was greatly shocked. What the hell is going on? How is it that every time I leave the sect, these things happen?
The billowing and thundering dark clouds sounded much like the wails of ghosts. It was hideous and terrifying.
I reckon big trouble is coming my way.
