Chapter 453: The Minion Almost Got Stolen

As Lin Fan confronted the ancient being Gu Hai, two shadowy figures floated silently above the void, observing the scene below.

They had been watching for quite some time, deeply shocked by what they witnessed.

They never expected that in the Ancient Holy Realm, there would be someone so defiant, resisting the ancient race with such tenacity.

“What kind of strength is supporting him?” A young man muttered in astonishment, his expression filled with disbelief.

“He said he’s from the Human Race just now. Maybe that’s it,” a woman beside him replied, her eyes filled with awe.

They had been silently watching from the void for a while. Initially, they were unsure of the situation and dared not make a sound. In this perilous Ancient Holy Realm, every step needed to be taken with utmost caution.

Especially with an ancient race member below, they had to be extra vigilant.

However, as they continued watching, their hearts wavered.

Especially when this human, despite being brutally beaten by the ancient race, refused to yield, shouting defiantly,

“Long live the Human Race!”

“You can’t kill me…”

These words struck their hearts like thunderclaps.

Their own races had also endured similar hardships. Yet in this cruel world, how many had turned traitor, groveling before the evil ancient race for survival.

“This person shouldn’t die here,” the woman beside the man said.

“Indeed, such people are rare in the Ancient Holy Realm nowadays,” the man replied.

“This ancient race’s aura is very strong. It should be at the middle stage of the Earth-Heaven level. If we catch it off guard, we might be able to kill it,” the man continued.

“Brother Xu, your Void金刚 Sword Intent is superb, merging into the void. This ancient race hasn’t noticed us yet. It might work,” the woman said.

“Alright…” Xu nodded, then flicked his finger. A golden sword beam slashed through the void, silently rushing downward.

At this moment, Lin Fan saw that the ancient race before him was nearly broken, and his heart rejoiced. He had already gained the benefits he wanted and was ready to kill it.

“Human, why won’t you fall…” Gu Hai roared furiously, his immense power erupting violently from his body, already somewhat chaotic.

“You…” Lin Fan’s expression remained calm. Just as he was about to humiliate his opponent, suddenly an unstoppable force pierced through the void from above.

“Damn, someone’s stealing my kill,” Lin Fan’s expression changed drastically. He couldn’t possibly endure this. This ancient race was about to be his for the taking, yet someone was trying to kill this monster within his grasp. How could he tolerate that?

Whether he could level up or not depended on this ancient race before him.

This unstoppable sword intent pierced through the void. Lin Fan believed that if the ancient race didn’t dodge, it would definitely be split in two.

However, the current state of this ancient race clearly indicated that it hadn’t noticed the hidden sword intent within the void.

“Stop!” In an instant, Lin Fan suddenly leaped up, rushing in front of the ancient race, and kicked it away with one powerful kick.

At that very moment, the unstoppable sword intent surged from the void, appearing instantly before Lin Fan, directly striking the ground.

“That was close…” Lin Fan couldn’t help but sigh in relief. Fortunately, he arrived just in time. Otherwise, if this ancient race had been killed by that sword intent, he wouldn’t even have a place to cry.

The two figures above the void, witnessing this scene, also changed expressions. “Quickly leave. These two might be working together to expose us.”

Seeing the human kick away the ancient race, Zhang Xu could only conclude that the human wasn’t what they had assumed. It was highly likely that he had colluded with the ancient race, staging this entire performance.

As the two prepared to leave quickly, a voice reached them, causing them to halt.

“There’s no need for your help. This one insulted my Human Race. He must be killed by my own hands.” Naturally, Lin Fan couldn’t say that this monster was his experience point. If they killed it, all his efforts would be in vain.

Zhang Xu slightly furrowed his brows, exchanging glances with the woman beside him, feeling puzzled about this human.

At this moment, the ancient race, kicked away by Lin Fan, shook his head and stood up.

“Damn…” Gu Hai looked at Lin Fan, then shifted his gaze toward the two figures in the void, his expression turning extremely fierce.

“You insulted my Human Race. Today, I will personally kill you.” With outsiders present, naturally Lin Fan couldn’t continue arguing with this ancient race.

“Boom…”

In an instant, Lin Fan’s figure vanished from his spot. When he reappeared, he was already in front of Gu Hai.

“What?” Gu Hai’s expression changed dramatically, showing great disbelief. How could this human possibly become so powerful?

“I’ll split you…” Holding the Eternal Axe in his hand, he heavily swung it down toward Gu Hai.

“Peng…”

Gu Hai’s pupils constricted sharply. He refused to believe he would die in the hands of a human, especially one he had beaten half to death.

“I am a Ten-Chief of the Ancient Race, protected by the will of heaven. I will have you eternally hunted by my race across lifetimes…” At this moment, something shocking happened to Lin Fan.

The Gu Hai, who had just been split in half by his axe blow, suddenly emitted a red light from his body. His fierce eyes glared at Lin Fan, as if trying to etch him into his memory forever.

In an instant, this red light shot out from Gu Hai’s body and vanished into the heavens and earth.

“Ding, congratulations on killing an ancient race member at the Earth-Heaven level.”

“Ding, congratulations on gaining 2000 experience points.”

“Ding, congratulations on leveling up.”

“Status: Earth-Heaven Initial Stage.”

At this moment, Lin Fan immersed himself in the exhilaration of leveling up. His body was filled with immense power.

Although this feeling had occurred many times before, each level-up still felt incredibly satisfying.

The two figures above the void, witnessing this scene, were also deeply shocked. How could this human be so strong, and yet be beaten so severely by the ancient race.

“Thank you both just now,” Lin Fan clasped his fists toward the void and said, also somewhat puzzled.

These two looked exactly like humans.

But on their bodies radiated a sharp aura.

The two figures slowly descended from the void. “I am Zhang Xu from the Sword Realm. This is my clanswoman, Hairan,” the man introduced.

“Xuan Huang Realm, Lin Fan,” Lin Fan replied.

Indeed, in the great universe, not only humans looked like this. Many beings from other realms also shared this appearance.

But what kind of realm was the Sword Realm? Could it be that everyone there wielded swords?

Naturally, Lin Fan wouldn’t let the two leave just like that. He still wanted to know more.

Judging from their appearance, they had obviously survived in the Ancient Holy Realm for a long time and must know a lot.

Then Lin Fan took the initiative to converse with them, asking about various things he didn’t know.
