At this moment, Lin Fan’s expression changed drastically. The incoming wave of energy was indeed formidable and suffocating.
Who would have thought that hidden within the Qin Divine Dynasty was a powerful boss that Lin Fan hadn’t anticipated? Moreover, that streak of purple lightning earlier seemed like a sign of breaking through.
Could it be that the figure concealed deep within the Qin Divine Dynasty had been in seclusion all along, only to be shaken out by his sudden assault?
“Hahaha…”
At that moment, Lin Fan threw his head back and laughed loudly.
“Die? Do you really think someone hiding in the shadows can kill me?” Lin Fan said mockingly. “That’s utterly ridiculous. An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth. I’ve already avenged the hundred and eight lives of Yan Village. I have no desire to spill more blood. I’ll spare you this time—don’t squander this mercy,” Lin Fan said calmly, flicking his sleeve as he spoke, clearly unimpressed by the hidden enemy.
Then, under the astonished gazes of disciples from the two sects, Lin Fan’s figure vanished instantly.
For the disciples, the scene before them was terrifying. They had no idea whether their elders were alive or dead, and the opponent’s strength was simply overwhelming—there was nothing they could do.
With his revenge complete, Lin Fan’s heart returned to peace. He had seized the moment to avenge Yan Village’s blood debt, and now that the vengeance was done, he returned to his true nature, refusing to let hatred consume him and lead to his own downfall.
After activating his invisibility, Lin Fan immediately took off running without hesitation.
In the outside world, reputation is everything. To run away in broad daylight would be utterly disgraceful. Only while invisible could Lin Fan be himself again.
When you can’t win, run—that was Lin Fan’s survival principle.
Besides, this mysterious figure didn’t hold much grudge against him, so there was no need to fight to the bitter end.
As for whether the other would hate him or not, that was beyond Lin Fan’s concern.
Lin Fan always felt his luck wasn’t great. Ever since leaving the sect, nothing had gone smoothly. Just when he thought he’d crushed everyone on the battlefield, a boss would always pop out and crush him instead.
To Lin Fan, who wanted nothing more than to show off his dominance completely, it was incredibly frustrating.
It all came down to strength—if only he were powerful enough, who would dare to show off in front of him?
…
Inside a secret chamber of the Qin Divine Dynasty, a middle-aged man exuded an overwhelming aura. A bolt of lightning struck down, transforming into chains of divine law that wrapped around his body.
This was the symptom of breaking through to the Grand Heaven Realm—comprehending the power of laws, refining them into one’s body, transcending oneself, and achieving the ultimate strength.
The middle-aged man, with chains of law resembling serpents coiling around him, reached out into the void.
Two figures appeared before him.
One was Zou Tenglong, crushed to death by Lin Fan, and the other was the King of Qin, feigning death.
“Long’er…” The middle-aged man, immersed in refining laws, looked at the still corpse on the ground, a flicker of sorrow flashing in his eyes. Then his expression hardened as he glared at the King of Qin.
“Mercy, King Qin! He was just too strong—I couldn’t possibly fight back!” To everyone’s shock, the King of Qin, who had been pretending to be dead, fell to his knees, kowtowing desperately.
Even more puzzling was the fact that the faces of the two men were identical.
“Worthless…” The middle-aged man, immersed in refining laws, struck out a palm, instantly reducing the fake King of Qin to dust.
“Refining divine laws into the body, reaching the Supreme Heaven Realm!” The King of Qin roared furiously. Two chains of law, like serpents, were violently pulled and then shone with strange light as they merged into his body.
At that moment, the King’s aura became even more formidable. With a palm covering the sky, carrying boundless momentum, he smashed the lightning eye in the void.
“You killed my son—I will kill you…” The King of Qin, filled with killing intent, tore through the space before him like ripping paper, then vanished into it.
…
Inside the secret chamber, silence reigned.
Zou Tenglong’s corpse lay there motionless.
At that moment, the air rippled like water.
A pale, jade-like finger, nothing but bone, stretched out from the void.
“Tap, tap…”
It was the sound of bones knocking together, echoing from the void.
In an instant, a terrifying jade-like skeleton fully emerged from the void. Gazing at the corpse on the ground as if laughing, its slender bone fingers flicked slightly.
Zou Tenglong’s body underwent a sudden transformation. A bloodstained skeleton flew out from within him, and the jade-like skeleton tossed it into the void, vanishing without a trace.
Then, as if laughing, the jade skeleton’s empty eye sockets suddenly flared with two flames. Threads of blood appeared on the jade bones, and finally, they flew into Zou Tenglong’s body, which had collapsed without skeletal support.
…
At that moment, Zou Tenglong, long since dead, suddenly opened his eyes. In his pupils, a flame flickered to life, then gradually disappeared.
Zou Tenglong stood up, brushed off the dust on his clothes, looked around, and faintly smiled. This smile was peaceful, no longer filled with arrogance and darkness as before.
…
Meanwhile, Lin Fan had already been running through the imperial city. He could sense the overwhelming aura chasing him relentlessly.
After running a short distance, Lin Fan suddenly realized something.
Why was he running? He was someone with a system! His entire body emitted no aura—how could that person possibly detect him?
Understanding this, Lin Fan smiled and quickly found a hidden spot, exiting his invisibility state. After checking his appearance—clean and spotless, with not a drop of blood—he calmly blended into the crowd.
As for that mysterious expert, Lin Fan vowed that if the other could find him, then it would truly be his skill.
Meanwhile, the King of Qin swept through the city, unable to locate the figure. Floating in the sky, he glared down at the city below, his expression growing increasingly dark.
No aura. No fluctuations.
What kind of concealment technique was this, that could escape his detection?
Sweeping his divine consciousness across the entire city, the King of Qin searched relentlessly, but to his disappointment, not even the slightest anomaly could be found.
“Boss, a bowl of wonton, please,” Lin Fan waved casually from a roadside stall.
“Coming right up.”
Soon, a steaming bowl of wonton was placed in front of Lin Fan. “Enjoy your meal, sir.”
Lin Fan nodded, picked up the spoon, took a bite, and looked completely satisfied.
“Mmm, delicious…”
At that moment, Lin Fan’s gaze fixed on the void. That guy must be furious, but who could blame him? After all, hiding was one of Lin Fan’s specialties. Wanting to find him was nothing more than a pipe dream.
No matter how powerful your methods are, this seat shall remain calm and eat wonton unperturbed.
The wonton was great—time for another bowl, then off to the spring pavilion to observe the lives and stories of the unfortunate girls.
