“If I were to deal with the Heavenly Fiend Sect, all the Daoist sects of Central Continent would come to encircle and suppress us, wouldn’t that be very troublesome?” Su Yufei raised an eyebrow and said.
“Isn’t that what you want? If those sects dare to withdraw their people, the demonic path can break through from the northwest and two other directions,” Lin Fan said.
"The Heavenly Fiend Immortal Sect is notorious for its evil deeds. Other sects will not risk their lives to help them without certainty."
...
Three days later, the Heavenly Fiend Immortal Sect was wiped out, causing a shockwave throughout the Central Continent. This was a lineage that had produced a Great Emperor and was one of the three great hidden sects of the Central Continent.
However, it was eliminated by a powerful force. All they felt on that day was the rampant and ferocious demonic energy, and the terrifying pressure felt like the end of the world.
It only gradually subsided after lasting for a day.
The news that Lin Fan possessed a demonic heart also spread throughout the Central Continent, reminding people of the feud between the Heavenly Fiend Immortal Sect and the Azure Sky Sect, and the fact that the Heavenly Fiend Immortal Sect had been wiped out.
The Central Continent is divided into several factions. Some factions believe that Lin Fan has a demonic heart and is therefore a demon. He acts arrogantly and destroys a celestial sect at will, which undoubtedly weakens the power of the Central Continent.
Some factions felt that although Lin Fan possessed a demonic heart, he had not yet become a demon. Moreover, the Qingxiao Sect already had two Transcending Tribulation stage cultivators, and the Liu family was close to them. The powerful demonic beast clans of the Ten Thousand Mountains also voiced their support for Lin Fan.
A terrifying force had already formed around him. If they were to really attack him, it would likely cause even more intense internal strife in the Central Plains. Moreover, Lin Fan and the Demonic Path were sworn enemies, and his grudges with the Crimson Blood Demon Lord were difficult to resolve. Therefore, he was able to recruit him to fight against the evil forces.
The two factions were arguing fiercely. Many sects were dissatisfied with the Liu family's actions and even transferred the region's strongmen back, resulting in a significant reduction in the number of strongmen guarding the Four Saints Prefecture and the departure of most of them, making the situation even more severe.
Lin Fan landed at the Liu family's residence, and the first thing he did was check his vehicle. He patted the Thundercloud Lion's little head, and the lion, munching on a spirit fruit, fawned, "Master, you're back!"
He is now a Tribulation Transcending stage expert. The Thundercloud Lion has not yet broken through to the fifth rank, and just standing next to him makes it feel a sense of unease.
"How have you been lately?" Lin Fan asked.
"Excellent! Good food, good lodging, and a wife!" Lei Yunshi said smugly, baring his teeth.
"Seeing how carefree you are, how about I set you free?" Lin Fan said with a smile.
"Master, I still want to serve you like a slave, please don't send me away." Lei Yunshi knelt down with a thud and begged.
Being pampered by the Liu family with good food and drink, and even allowed to go out for a stroll when not in a hurry, it is now known throughout the Four Saints County as Fengxi's vehicle. Unless someone is foolish enough to provoke it, no one dares to mess with it.
"Then you need to get stronger as soon as possible. This is the Dragon Root. Whether you can break through to the fifth rank depends on your aptitude." Lin Fan took out a dragon-shaped medicinal herb, and the Thunder Cloud Lion drooled.
He turned around and saw a woman in white looking at him with a resentful gaze.
"You're back, brother!" Fengxi walked over, pouting and saying with a hint of grievance.
"Hmm!" Lin Fan nodded and said, "You should have regained your memories by now."
He looked at Fengxi with an innate coldness in his eyes, no longer the simple-minded little girl he once was.
"No matter what I become, you'll always be my brother!" Fengxi said with a grin, hugging his arm.
"You've grown up and are even more capable than me now, so you'll have to protect me well from now on," Lin Fan said with a smile.
"Of course, give me some more time. As long as the Demonic Path Supreme doesn't appear, I will definitely beat them to a pulp." Feng Xi proudly raised her fair chin and said smugly.
The two talked for a long time until the Liu family had something important to deal with, at which point Fengxi left. She glanced back at Lin Fan, her eyes filled with a strange and complex emotion.
In the courtyard of the side room, Chu Yunying sat on the stone slab in a daze, her silver-white hair cascading down her shoulders like a waterfall, her expression somewhat lost and forlorn.
They only recently learned about the relationship between their senior brother and Liu Mengli, yet their senior brother still cared for her so much, just as he had cared for them when they were children.
"What are you thinking about?" Lin Fan appeared beside him and asked curiously.
"Huh?" Chu Yunying exclaimed in surprise when she saw him, then quickly turned around and said, "Senior Brother, when did you arrive?"
Her voice trembled slightly as she spoke, and she covered her face with her hands.
"Just arrived," Lin Fan said.
“Can you turn around?” she asked.
"Why?" Lin Fan asked.
"I'm so ugly right now, I don't want my senior brother to see me," she said softly, her shoulders trembling.
Lin Fan didn't say much, took out the Nine-Turn Soul-Crossing Lotus, and said, "This is for you!"
Chu Yunying looked at the Nine-Turn Soul-Crossing Lotus, her heart trembled, and two lines of tears slid down her cheeks. This was the sacred medicine of the Heavenly Fiend Immortal Sect. The recent rumors that the Heavenly Fiend Sect had been destroyed were indeed the work of her senior brother.
She covered her mouth and burst into tears.
"Why are you crying all of a sudden?" Lin Fan didn't know how to comfort her. It was the first time he had ever seen his usually resilient fourth junior sister cry like this.
"Senior Brother, thank you!" Chu Yunying sobbed.
The sect that destroyed the Chu clan back then was the Heavenly Fiend Immortal Sect, so when she saw the successor of this sect appear in the Four Saints County, she couldn't help but take action.
She was too eager for revenge, but she did not expect that the successor of the Heavenly Fiend Immortal Sect would summon the will of an old monster in the Tribulation Transcending stage, which would seriously injure her. Murong Xuanqiu was also severely injured in order to save her.
If Leng Xingyue and Feng Xi hadn't reacted in time and stopped the old monster's continuous attacks, the two of them would probably have perished.
"Senior Brother, do you believe me?" She had been crying for a while, her eyes red, and she looked up at him.
Lin Fan didn't reply, so Chu Yunying continued, "I..."
She had just finished speaking when Su Youxue rushed in. Lin Fan told Chu Yunying to put away the Nine-Turn Tribulation Lotus first.
"Senior Brother, you're back?" Su Youxue's eyes lit up when she saw Lin Fan, and she ran over.
"Something terrible has happened! Junior Sister is in danger!" She grabbed Lin Fan and ran outside in a panic.
"Stop, stop, stop, what's going on?" Lin Fan was speechless and flustered.
“Junior Sister received news of her parents, so she chose to travel alone. That area had been occupied by the demonic forces. She left a letter for Master and quietly left,” Su Youxue said anxiously.
"Just find someone to rescue her," Lin Fan said calmly.
There are at least a dozen or so experts in the Tribulation Transcending stage in the Four Saints County. Even if others are unwilling to help, Leng Xingyue will definitely not sit idly by.
“But Master hasn’t returned yet!” Su Youxue said.
Leng Xingyue left Sisheng County half a month ago due to important matters. Now, the only one who can save Lu Shuisheng is Lin Fan.
"We must believe that she is a lucky person and will be blessed by heaven!" Lin Fan said.
“But…” Su Youxue was almost in tears. That was a fallen territory, teeming with evil spirits. Lu Shuisheng was only at the Nascent Soul stage, so it would definitely be very dangerous for him.
"Senior Brother, please go and save Junior Sister," Chu Yunying suddenly said.
