“Hey, Demon Lord, did you hear what my big brother said? He’s asking you to come and meet your death!” Qiu Zhan Yu roared.
Lin Fan frowned slightly. This Demon Lord was somewhat domineering, remaining completely still. Could it be that he didn’t take Lin Fan seriously?
This was indeed awkward.
“Big brother, this fellow seems to disregard us completely,” Golden Mushroom said, somewhat angrily.
They hadn’t expected they’d ever be this arrogant themselves—following their big brother and directly challenging a cultivator expert at the Xuan Immortal level. Such a situation was incredibly audacious.
“He’s asking for death.”
Lin Fan’s eyebrows tightened. The sword intent he had recently cultivated suddenly erupted. A transparent sword intent pierced the heavens and earth, instantly slashing toward the Demon Lord seated in midair.
The sharp sword intent was unstoppable. The entire abyssal void trembled.
“Big brother is so strong!” Qiu Zhan Yu and the other exclaimed in shock.
Puchi!
Where the sword intent passed, no one could resist. Instantly, the Demon Lord was slashed to death. His corpse exploded violently, turning into a pool of blood that scattered across the heavens and earth.
“Big brother is amazing,” the two exclaimed in admiration.
At this moment, Lin Fan was somewhat puzzled. This was truly unbelievable—could this really be the legendary Demon Lord? Yet he was way too weak.
Slain by just one slash of Lin Fan’s sword.
Too simple, way too simple.
It was hard to believe.
But strangely, after killing this Demon Lord, why hadn’t the system issued any notification?
At this thought, Lin Fan’s mind raced.
Could it be that this Demon Lord had already been mortally wounded and dead beforehand? And that the female demon on the ground didn’t know this, still believing the Demon Lord was alive, luring unsuspecting victims into her trap?
Oh damn!
What a huge loss—absolutely nothing beneficial came from it. Truly a dog’s life.
“Who…?”
Just then, an earth-shaking roar suddenly echoed throughout the surrounding void.
With just this one sound, the entire void trembled.
A surging demonic aura abruptly erupted from underground. This demonic aura solidified into a tangible form, eventually transforming into a pair of demonic eyes. These eyes surveyed the heavens and earth, then shifted their gaze toward Lin Fan and the others standing there.
“I didn’t expect anyone else to come here to die…”
Lin Fan, who had just been slightly puzzled, instantly froze upon seeing those demonic eyes.
Meanwhile, Qiu Zhan Yu and Golden Mushroom, who had felt so mighty moments ago, were now completely stunned, their legs trembling.
“Bi… Big bro… What… What is this?” Qiu Zhan Yu stuttered.
Lin Fan swallowed hard, feeling like he wanted to die.
Only now did he realize—the thing he had just killed wasn’t the real Demon Lord at all. It had merely been a sacrificial offering used by the Demon Lord for healing.
“What the hell!” Lin Fan roared inwardly, then quickly grabbed the two others. “Run!”
Although he hadn’t yet seen the true form of the Demon Lord, just this pair of demonic eyes and the demonic aura that had erupted from underground was enough for Lin Fan to concede defeat.
This was simply beyond his current capabilities.
This was truly a great demonic fiend.
“Since you’ve come, then come in. It seems my bait has already been discovered by you. Do you really think, because this Lord has been injured, a few insignificant ants like you can subdue me?”
Boom!
The earth cracked open. From underground, one black pillar after another pierced through, completely sealing off all directions.
“Let’s fly,” Lin Fan said without hesitation, preparing to escape into the void.
But as Lin Fan lifted his head and was about to enter the void, he noticed red ribbons slithering across the sky above.
These red ribbons moved like serpents, constantly writhing and entwining, covering the sky in a dense network. It seemed that if one were to be ensnared by them, there would be no escape from death.
At this moment, Lin Fan swallowed hard, feeling a sense of dread. Had he brought this doom upon himself?
“Great Demon Lord, you’ve misunderstood! We’ve come to deliver medicine!”
Suddenly, Lin Fan, who had been silent for a moment, shouted loudly.
“Hehe, do you take this Demon Lord for a fool?” a voice came again from underground, filled with disdain.
“Great Demon Lord, you’ve misunderstood! We three truly admire the Demon Lord deeply. We really have come to deliver medicine for you. This Qiankun Invincible Healing Supreme Pill can help you recover from your injuries. If the Demon Lord doesn’t believe me, you can examine it personally,” Lin Fan said without hesitation, immediately throwing the Li Yun Pill forward.
The pill vanished into the void, as if seized by an invisible hand.
Then, the void fell silent once more.
For a long time, there was no sound.
“Big brother, what do we do now?” Qiu Zhan Yu asked nervously.
Golden Mushroom nodded continuously. This was really scary.
“Don’t panic,” Lin Fan held his breath while wiping the sweat from his forehead.
Based on this aura alone, the Demon Lord was clearly beyond his ability to confront.
This aura definitely surpassed the Xuan Immortal level. As to how powerful exactly, he couldn’t tell. Without seeing it with his own eyes, it was impossible to know.
Sure enough, not long after, a voice filled with surprise and supreme authority came forth.
“Do you have more of these pills?” the Demon Lord roared, as if sensing the pill’s miraculous effects.
“Yes, yes! We came here specifically to help the Demon Lord recover from injuries,” Lin Fan shouted.
“Good! Indeed very good! As long as you provide this Lord with enough pills, I shall accept you as a disciple, making you a great demon under heaven and earth,” the Demon Lord declared.
“Thank you, Demon Lord! I’m almost moved to tears,” Lin Fan wiped the corner of his eye, then took out another handful of pills. “Demon Lord, this is the last batch. I hope it will be of some help.”
Another handful of pills was thrown forward, disappearing once more into the void.
At this moment, Lin Fan lowered his head, his mind racing.
“What should I do? What the hell should I do now? If this doesn’t work, I’m truly doomed,” Lin Fan thought.
This was a complete failure right from the start. He had originally killed a mid-stage True Immortal expert, allowing him to become a True Immortal himself. But who could have predicted that upon entering this underground realm, hoping to gain a huge advantage, he would encounter a Demon Lord who was simply a monster—completely beyond expectation.
At this moment, Qiu Zhan Yu and Golden Mushroom were completely stunned. The situation had changed too quickly.
They hadn’t expected that right after pledging allegiance to a big brother, they’d end up dying alongside him.
Boom!
Sure enough, not long after, a mighty aura erupted violently.
“Good! Unexpectedly, these pills have healed two-tenths of my injuries. Very good…” The Demon Lord’s voice came, filled with excitement.
Previously, the Demon Lord had been gravely injured. Without these pills, he would have needed at least a hundred years to recover. But now, two-tenths of his injuries were already healed.
“What is your name?” Suddenly, a figure appeared in the sky.
When Lin Fan saw this figure, he was momentarily stunned. What an outrageously attractive man!
If this man were on Earth, he would be the type to be overwhelmed by adoring girls and middle-aged women alike.
But this was the Boundless Continent, and this Demon Lord before him was undoubtedly a ruthless character.
“Reporting to the Demon Lord, my humble name is Lin Fan,” Lin Fan loudly replied, cautiously glancing upward.
Holy crap…
Golden Immortal Peak!
This was a realm even more formidable than the Xuan Immortal.
Damn it, even a severely wounded Golden Immortal Peak expert could easily kill him.
