Late at night, in the capital of Tianshan County.
Wang Fusheng fidgeted, pulling at his beard.
"Forest Guardian, what time is it now?"
"Reporting to Your Excellency, it is 3:45 PM!"
By 3:45 PM, we should be able to get back in time.
Why is there no news at all?
"Okay, I understand. Send someone to keep an eye on the city gate. Notify me immediately if there is any news."
"Yes, sir!"
......
A while later, Jiang Shoulin ran in from outside, his face ashen.
"Master, something terrible has happened."
"News has come from Shanbei Post Station: Young Master Jiang and the rest of them have all been killed by Li Fan!"
Upon hearing the devastating news, Wang Fusheng collapsed into his chair.
Dead!
They're all dead.
They were all killed by Li Fan.
The sky has fallen.
how so!
what do I do?
Escape.
If I don't run, Li Fan will kill me.
"Shoulin, immediately inform Madam to pack her things and head to the state capital!"
......
In Tianshan County, there is a restaurant.
Wang Bao reached out and gripped the wine glass, his face devoid of any smile.
Unexpectedly, despite rushing so fast, he arrived at Tianshan County City ahead of Li Fan.
What surprised him even more was that the Jiang family actually sent Jiang Yichen, the young master of the Jiang family.
His father was not only one of the three Dharma Images of the Jiang family, but he also doted on Jiang Yichen to the extreme.
On her own, she really couldn't stop Jiang Yichen.
He wants to kill Li Fan, so Li Fan has to die!
That's it, that's all we can do.
Once news of Li Fan's death arrives, I will go to report back.
Wang Bao raised his cup to the bright moon to relieve his inner turmoil.
After an unknown amount of time, hurried footsteps came from outside the door.
"Lord Wang, news has come from the Prefect's Office."
"The young master of the Jiang family is dead!"
"Everyone who went with him was killed by Li Fan!"
Upon hearing this news, Wang Bao's dazed mind was jolted awake as if by a heavy hammer.
"What did you say?"
He suddenly stood up and looked at the person behind him, his eyes flashing with a terrifying light.
Among those who went to kill Li Fan, there were three who were at the peak of the ninth-grade divine power.
With the backup plan left by Jiang Ruhuo, who could rival such a lineup except for a tenth-grade Dharma Image?
Could it be that a tenth-rank Dharma Image secretly intervened?
No matter what the circumstances, I must go there in person.
"Prepare the horses immediately, I'm leaving the city!"
......
The next morning, the three riders arrived as dawn broke.
Yue Bufan, Wu Feng, and Chen Dongsheng all looked exhausted.
Herod!
The horses neighed, and Yue Bufan and the other two tightened the reins at the same time.
The once-open road was blocked by a deep ravine.
The scorched soil and the horrific knife marks tell the world that a great battle once took place here.
Chen Dongsheng was jolted awake.
"Could there be a great battle between Dharma Images here?"
Faced with such a terrifying scene, he couldn't imagine any other possibilities.
"The Great War of Dharma and Image is too far removed from us."
"The best course of action now is to find Li Fan."
"Kill Li Fan before my father and the others."
"This is what's in our best interest!"
A glint of light flashed in Yue Bufan's eyes.
I will reach the realm of Dharma sooner or later.
Let's go!
"The Shanbei Post Station is just ahead; we can find out by asking around!"
The three of them bypassed the deep pit and headed towards the post station.
......
The Shanbei Post Station was unusually bustling.
After several battles, most of the traveling merchants had already left.
Inside the inn, the servant boy was still half asleep.
Besides him, only Li Fan and two others were sitting in the center of the restaurant.
......
clang!
Yue Bufan took out a silver ingot and slapped it on the counter.
"Gentlemen, please come in!"
The servant, who had been sleepy-eyed, immediately perked up.
"Three superior rooms, a table of food and wine, and hot water prepared."
"Also, take a look at this person. Have you seen him before?"
Yue Bufan then took out a portrait.
"Why does this person seem so familiar?"
"Oh, I remember now!"
"Isn't that Li..."
The servant muttered to himself, his voice growing softer and softer.
He looked at the three people in front of him with a strange expression, then leaned forward and asked in a low voice.
"Young master, is the person you are looking for Leader Li of the Martial Arts Alliance in Tianguang County?"
"He's here?"
Seeing the servant's attitude, Yue Bufan and his two companions' eyes lit up.
"Young Master, the one who is seriously injured is Alliance Leader Li!"
The servant glanced at Li Fan out of the corner of his eye, then quickly put away the silver and stepped aside.
Going to see that person is definitely not going to be good; a few more people might die today.
Yesterday's bodies are still at the post station, so adding three more today wouldn't be a big deal.
If these three die, this ingot of silver will be his.
......
Upon seeing Li Fan's face, Yue Bufan frowned slightly.
Is this Li Fan?
Isn't this just too shabby?
Once you reach the ninth rank of the Divine Realm, it's practically impossible to get burned.
Unless they are beaten to the point of death and then burned.
Could it be that Li Fan was beaten up like this by someone else?
That doesn't make sense!
If you're worried, just kill him.
There's no logic in beating someone up like that and not killing them.
fighting.
The pit outside the post station.
Wait, no
"Hey, you three idiots over there, what are you looking at, your mother?"
Just as Yue Bufan was deep in thought, Zhang Jin slammed his hand on the table, stood up, and looked at the three of them.
His words interrupted Yue Bufan's thoughts.
"Are you talking to us?"
Chen Dongsheng raised an eyebrow and looked at Zhang Jin with hostility.
"I'm talking about you guys, what are you looking at your mother for?"
Zhang Jin drew his sword and looked at the three men: "Come here if you dare, your grandpa will teach you a lesson!"
"You bastard, I'll kill you before I kill Li Fan!"
Chen Dongsheng leaped forward.
Two short knives slashed out from his sleeves.
The knife flashed out, swift as lightning, aiming to pierce Zhang Jin's head and heart.
Chen Dongsheng did not hold back in this attack.
He naturally wouldn't underestimate anyone who could be with Li Fan.
Clang!
Zhang Jin used his broken sword to block a sword aimed at his brow.
At the same time, his left hand also pressed down on Chen Dongsheng's other knife.
Bang!
Before Chen Dongsheng could react, Zhang Jin's body crashed into him.
puff!
Spitting out a mouthful of blood, Chen Dongsheng was sent flying backward uncontrollably.
Upon seeing this scene, Wu Feng and Yue Bufan felt a chill in their hearts.
No one expected that Chen Dongsheng would lose so decisively.
......
"A waste of talent at the early stage of the ninth rank, who has not grasped the essence of the matter."
"I don't know who gave you the courage to challenge Brother Fan."
"I don't know who gave you the courage to attack me!"
"Today, I will mercifully send you on your way."
"In your next life, remember to keep your eyes peeled!"
Zhang Jin remained completely unmoved.
In the world of martial arts, one must show no mercy.
If you have the advantage, then you should exterminate them all.
"stop!"
"You thief, how dare you!"
Just as Zhang Jin was about to make another move, Yue Bufan and Wu Feng attacked simultaneously.
"Heh, the martial arts world of Nanzhou, young and old, are all the same!"
"All you do is gang up on people, huh?"
"Old Wang, do it! Kill all three of them!"
Zhang Jin took a step back, first avoiding the two men's attacks.
When Wang Taicang drew his sword and charged out, Zhang Jin followed closely behind.
......
It's a two-against-three situation, with the game completely one-sided.
Both Zhang Jin and Wang Taicang grasped the meaning.
None of the three, including Chen Dongsheng, grasped the meaning.
The result is self-evident.
"You dare kill us? I am the son of the Taiyue Sect Leader..."
"Idiot, if registration numbers were useful, then that damn young master of the Jiang family wouldn't have to die!"
Zhang Jin charged out with his sword, a look of disdain on his face.
"Pfft!"
The broken sword pierced through Yue Bufan's heart.
I died just like that!
I'm not reconciled!
Yue Bufan stretched out his palm, as if trying to grasp something.
But he couldn't hold onto anything.
Soon, Wu Feng and Chen Dongsheng were also killed!
"Waiter, come out and clean the floor!"
Zhang Jin took out a piece of silver and threw it out, then sat back down as if nothing had happened.
