The twelve stunning figures added beauty to the dark and rustic woods, but in Lin Fan’s opinion, the sky was still a bit dark.
“I don’t like your attitudes.”
Lin Fan, still inside the Imperial Cauldron of the Heavenly River, looked at the children on these women’s shoulders. “You guys are really something. You are even taking children out on a walk with you?”
As far as the twelve girls were concerned, the sight of someone taking a bath in a cauldron in the woods was very strange. More importantly, the cauldron was exuding a faint pressure; obviously, it was far from ordinary.
Even the flames burning under the cauldron weren’t fueled by anything, which made them vigilant.
At this time, a child on a girl’s shoulder woke up, and upon finding himself in an unfamiliar environment, he couldn’t help but start crying.
“I want to go home, I want my mother…!”
“Shui Xie, take good care of these children,” the leading girl reprimanded at once.
“Yes, Madam.” Upon receiving the order, the girl in the black known as Shui Xie raised her five fingers as threads of earth energy flew out and tied the twelve children up before she moved back to an old tree. She found the crying children quite irritating. Her pretty little eyes burst with murderous glow as she shouted at the children, “Shut up or I will cut out your tongues!”
A look of horror showed on all the children’s faces when they heard this. They slumped down on their asses with their heads bowed, shivering.
“So, it turns out that all these children were abducted by you.” Lin Fan looked at the girls before focusing his gaze on the fingers of their leader. He found the black lines on her fingers quite familiar, realization soon dawning on him. “You are from the Divine Religion.”
“How sharp of you!” As the leader stepped out of the team, her tall and stunning figure was immediately apparent. “I’m Xue Zhu from the Divine Religion’s Assassination Branch. Who are you?”
Lin Fan smiled. He hadn’t expected that the first person he would run into after exiting the Thousand Deep Cave would be from the Divine Religion. He recalled Ming You, but unfortunately, he was already dead.
If he was still alive, I would have blown that guy away with one punch.
“On these vast lands, since I’m not a member of your Divine Religion, who do you think I am?” Lin Fan took the boiling water in his hands and washed his face.
Xue Zhu coldly said, her voice filled with intense blood lust, “You are a disciple of the Magnificent Flame Sect.”
Lin Fan didn’t answer but looked at the twelve children and said in a gentle tone as if he was a next-door big brother, “Children, close your eyes. The next scene is not something children of your age should see.
“Be obedient and close your eyes. When you open your eyes, I will take you to see your mothers.”
The scared children felt at peace after hearing the big-brother-like voice and obediently closed their eyes.
“What obedient children.” Lin Fan smiled and stood up in the Imperial Cauldron of the Heavenly River. The boiling water slid across his distinct muscles, bringing out a masculine charm.
He then took out a robe from the storage ring and put it on as he said to himself, “Actually, I don’t want to kill women, but I will never show mercy to women with sinister hearts.”
He then jumped out of the cauldron. Drops of water dripped down his body, creating deep pits on the ground as if they weighed a thousand pounds.
Every drop of water was equal to the strength of a seventh- or eighth-stage Body Tempering Realm expert. How could the soft mud withstand them?
“Ten breaths.”
“What do you mean?” Xue Zhu asked in a gloomy voice.
Bang!
Just as Lin Fan finished speaking, she felt a gust of wind blow past her as a deafening explosion rang behind her. She promptly turned around, horror clearly visible in her eyes. God knows when, but Lin Fan had appeared behind her. The next thing that entered her eyes was a gruesome scene of flesh and blood flying.
“Weak, you are really weak. Even if you are women, you need to temper your bodies. I can blow you away with one punch. How can you be so weak?”
She couldn’t catch sight of Lin Fan’s figure. Only Lin Fan’s voice rang in her ears.
Even with her cultivation of Earth Star Border Stage Five, she couldn’t capture Lin Fan’s figure.
Bang!
Explosions continued to ring in her ears as the subordinates, who were originally standing next her, disappeared, leaving a puddle of blood and pieces of flesh in their places.
She was leading her subordinates to abduct some children, and this mission had ended with fruitful results. She was quite satisfied. She just wanted to tease and torture Lin Fan to death after seeing him. But now, she was shocked that this harmless guy was brutally killing her subordinates.
She started shivering.
It wasn’t because she was afraid, rather she was angry.
What is this guy doing? He actually dares to torture my followers? These are my followers!
“You guys are really weak. I don’t even need my mace. I can destroy you guys with just my fists. You guys have simply invited a grim reaper of death after appearing before me.”
Lin Fan’s punch that was surging with earth energy directly blew a Divine Religion follower into pieces. All of them were physically weak. Their weak bodies couldn’t resist Lin Fan’s crazy strength.
Xue Zhu roared, “Stop, stop right there! We are Blessed Followers of the Divine Religion. You dare to kill them? I want you dead!
“Blood-
Just as she wanted to unleash some big move, just as she uttered a single word, she suddenly found that her neck was being held by Lin Fan and lifted before him. A gentle voice rang in her ears, “What Blood?”
Xue Zhu was horrified. She felt as if she was facing a devil. Her throat moved up and down as she uttered a few words with great difficulty, “Who are you?”
Violent Body!
The next scene was quite horrifying for Xue Zhu. Lin Fan’s arm that was just like any ordinary person suddenly swelled as bulging green veins appeared on them.
A powerful force suddenly flipped her body as her slender waist was bear-hugged tightly by two rough arms. Her mind was immediately assaulted by a sharp bout of pain.
“Bitch.”
“Ahhhh~!!”
Lin Fan kept tightening his hold. Xue Zhu immediately felt as if her waist was about to be crushed.
“You fu***** bitches, what I hate most about you is stealing innocent children from their parents.
“Do you know how much these children need maternal love?”
Puff!
Xue Zhu opened her mouth to speak, but she spewed a mouthful of blood instead, dying the black muslin red. She was in a great amount of pain, and that was quite clear on her face. “Let… me go.”
Lin Fan kept tightening his hold as his muscles kept bulging.
Suddenly, a cracking sound rang from Xue Zhu’s body; apparently her ribs had cracked even after being protected by her earth energy. She couldn’t resist anymore. She let out a miserable scream as her face turned pale; she looked as if would die any moment.
“You are destroying the harmonious family and peace of the Magnificent Flame Sect. As a Magnificent Flame Sect disciple, I have to kill all of you.
“Self-Created Style Second Move, Hugging a Beauty to Death.”
Bam!
All of Xue Zue’s internal organs ruptured at this moment. He slender waist had become even more slender.
Lin Fan directly threw the corpse aside. He didn’t care about their wealth. How can these guys have any valuable things?
At this moment, he turned his gaze into the distance.
Shui Xie had been guarding the children all the while, but the tragic scene before her eyes had completely left her dumbfounded. Madam didn’t even have room to resist. She died so tragically in that guy’s hands.
Her legs started trembling. She didn’t even have the strength to escape. And when she saw the terrifying man approaching her, she summoned some courage from God-knows-where and placed a dagger on a child’s neck.
Lin Fan kept approaching, step by step. His approaching pitch-black hill-like body terrified the hell out of Shui Xie.
“Listen to me and give me the knife, that child is innocent.” Lin Fan stretched out his huge dark hand before Shui Xie and said in a very gentle tone, “Don’t worry, I don’t kill women.”
Shui Xie tremblingly moved away the dagger and put it in Lin Fan’s hand upon seeing the terrifying figure standing before her with a gentle look on his face.
Crack!
Lin Fan crushed the dagger into pieces with his fingers right before her eyes.
“Come, give me your hand, let me help you up,” Lin Fan said with a smile. He was treating this girl with friendliness.
Shui Xie had killed many innocent people, but facing the man before her, she suddenly felt like she was the very innocent people whom she had tortured and killed.
As her soft and white palm came into Lin Fan’s huge dark hands, the horror on her face gradually disappeared as she felt the warmth transmitted into her hands. She forced a smile and said, “I…”
But before she could finish speaking, an immense force threw her into the sky.
Lin Fan looked at the figure flying into the sky and fired a punch straight at her, shooting a streak of earth energy at her. The nearby trees immediately shook violently.
Boom!
A deafening explosion reverberated through the sky.
Lin Fan then came to the area littered with pieces of flesh and puddles of blood and inserted his fingers into the ground, releasing his majestic earth energy. Suddenly, the ground started quaking before collapsing, covering all the flesh and blood.
I can’t let the children see this gruesome sight and let it be etched into their memories!
He then switched to his normal form, washed all the blood off his body, changed his clothes, and then made his way to the children with closed eyes.
He said in a gentle voice, “Kids, you can open your eyes.”
The twelve children opened their eyes and looked about before staring at Lin Fan, “Big Brother, what about those big sisters?”
Lin Fan smiled and said, “They have gone to find a new world. Where is your home? I will send you kids back.”
The children found Lin Fan was a kind elder brother, and their terrified hearts calmed down.
