The immortal sect is lofty, but the dynasty is collapsing. The court is treacherous, and the martial world is perilous. In these troubled times, human lives are no more valuable than grass.
C...
"Brother Fan is awesome!"
Li Fan's decisiveness won Zhang Jin's heartfelt admiration.
Honestly, if it were him, he might not have killed Jiang Yichen.
Dominant forces are not to be trifled with.
Even a tenth-grade Dharma image is not to be trifled with.
Although he might not necessarily be killed, being constantly hunted down is still a troublesome matter.
On the other side, Wang Taicang had already taken out his own robe and draped it over Li Fan.
The willpower Li Fan displayed in this battle completely won him over.
Few martial artists in the world are as fierce and brave as Li Fan.
Putting aside the fact that he withstood the supernatural power of the Dharma Form, few in the world could remain so calm after suffering such a severe injury.
......
"The battle is over!"
"They're all dead! The leaders of the three top sects in Southern Continent are all dead!"
"Brother He, what did you say?"
"The leaders of the Sword Sect, Shadowless Sect, and Taiyue Sect are all dead."
After the middle-aged man in the brocade robe finished speaking, gasps of astonishment rippled through the crowd.
"Not only that, there's someone even more important than them!"
He Xiaojun continued, "Do you know who that young master who was the last one to be killed was?"
"Brother He, that man said his surname was Jiang. Does that mean he was born into the Jiang family?"
Someone in the crowd made a comment.
He Xiaojun nodded: "If I'm not mistaken, that person not only comes from the Jiang family, but his status in the entire Jiang family is also exceptionally noble."
"He is very likely Jiang Yichen, the young master of the Jiang family!"
The words "Young Master of the Jiang Family" sent shockwaves through everyone.
Jiang Wentian, the head of the Jiang family, has no sons, and his ambition is not to continue the family line. Therefore, there is only one recognized successor to lead the Jiang family in the next generation.
That was Jiang Yichen, the youngest son of Jiang Ruhuo, one of the three great Dharma Images.
"My God, it was him!"
"I've heard of this young master of the Jiang family. No wonder the leaders of the three major sects obey his orders!"
"He's dead. This has probably caused a huge uproar."
"Neither the Jiang family nor that elder will likely let this go!"
Merchants passing by were discussing the matter animatedly. Just then, someone asked, "Does anyone know who killed him?"
"Li Fan, leader of the Tianguang County Martial Arts Alliance!"
"This is the only possibility I can think of."
Among the crowd, a martial artist voiced his guess.
"Looking across the entire Southern Continent, there is only one martial artist who is so young and domineering."
"Besides him, I don't think anyone else would dare to kill the young master of the Jiang family!"
"But I don't understand, how could Alliance Leader Li dare to kill him?"
"That's the Jiang family, with three Dharma Image experts guarding them!"
"Isn't he afraid that Faxiang will attack him?"
“Brother Wang, behind Alliance Leader Li stands Lord Nangong, a man who commands respect throughout the martial arts world of Nanzhou.”
After that martial artist finished speaking, others added, "With him here, the Jiang family might not dare to attack Alliance Leader Li!"
"Brother Zhao, you are mistaken."
"Although Lord Nangong is strong, he has not yet broken through to the Dharma Form stage. How could he be a match for the Jiang family?"
"But at the banquet at the Prince of Zhennan's mansion not long ago, that Lord Nangong dominated the entire event, and even the Prince of Zhennan had to offer kind words of advice."
"Even the Jiang family only mediated afterwards, which is enough to demonstrate the power of that Lord Nangong, isn't it?"
"Putting that aside, besides Alliance Leader Li, do any of you know the other two?"
"Didn't one of them introduce himself as Tide Sword?"
"Is there such a person in the martial arts world of Nanzhou?"
"Didn't you see the last Fish and Dragon Ranking? Zhang Jin of Haizhou Tide Sword is ranked fifteenth on the Fish and Dragon Ranking."
"So it was him, the trendsetter..."
"Shh, be quiet, those three are coming!"
Just as everyone was discussing this, Li Fan and his two companions walked over from a distance.
Make way for the crowd.
......
As night fell, an old man in a gray robe flew across the night sky.
The old man had a pale face and no beard, and his aura carried a hint of effeminacy.
Under the moonlight, Tian Chongzhi saw the pit not far from the post station.
The huge slash mark caught his eye.
"There are traces of a battle between Dharma Images here?"
"Neither of the two types of true energy was left behind by that traitor Chen Kui."
"But one of them was using a knife."
"The blade still retains the aura of burning blood that consumed it."
"Could this be related to that traitor Chen Kui?"
After surveying the battlefield, Tian Chongzhi changed direction and flew towards the Shanbei Post Station.
......
Inside the post station, Li Fan let out a long sigh of relief.
The injury has now completely stabilized.
Although it looks terrible, it's only a matter of time before he recovers.
What Old Chen fed himself was probably a spiritual fruit.
The potent medicinal power has not yet been fully absorbed.
Next, it's time to digest what we've learned from this battle.
Besides the two supernatural powers awakened in the physical body, the greatest gain was the transformation in exorcising evil.
This sword seems to be evolving into a divine weapon.
Li Fan gripped the sword; once in his hand, the long blade felt like an extension of his body.
Just then, Zhang Jin's voice came from outside the door.
"Halt! Who are you?"
Seeing the white-haired middle-aged man approaching, Zhang Jin couldn't help but reach out and press his hand on the hilt of his sword.
The person in front of him was giving him an overwhelming sense of pressure.
But he is Zhang Jin, and the greater the pressure, the less afraid he becomes.
"My name is Nangong Zhenxiang, and I'm looking for Li Fan!"
"I don't care about you..."
Zhang Jin hadn't finished speaking when he suddenly froze on the spot.
He had heard of the name Nangong Zhenxiang in Haizhou.
After all, it was he who proposed the establishment of the Martial Arts Alliance, and his reputation had long been known throughout the martial arts world.
"Lord Nangong, please come in!"
......
"I'm sorry I'm late!"
Even though Nangong Zhenxiang was a man of great experience, he was shocked by Li Fan's injuries.
The person before me was almost nothing more than a human form.
One can imagine the brutal battle that Li Fan encountered.
This matter concerning the Jiang family is not over yet.
"fine!"
Li Fan shook his head.
He never cared about injuries.
Seeing Li Fan's calm demeanor, Nangong Zhenxiang didn't say anything more.
He handed the long sword in his hand to Li Fan: "Divine Weapon Tiger Soul."
"The weapon of Yuwen Haotian, the Grand Commander of Zhongzhou."
"His supernatural powers are sealed inside. He can draw his sword again if he encounters danger!"
Thank you!
"stop......"
"Get out of my way!"
Click!
The gate shattered into pieces, and Zhang Jin crashed heavily to the ground.
He coughed up blood, his eyes wide with horror.
The winds and waves in this southern region are ridiculously strong.
The Dharma image personally arrived.
What the hell is going on?!
