Chapter 290: Show Off and Then Run Away

Li Yuanqi was completely stunned at this moment. To him, the Moon Palace Sect had been nothing more than a sect he could manipulate at will. However, the turn of events had been completely unexpected.

Who the hell is this terrifying bastard, and where did he come from?

How could such a powerful figure appear in the Holy Sect?

The Blood Stone Gate, the Blood Demon Emperor was supreme, sweeping through all realms and worlds. Yet, under that guy’s terrifying words, he actually severed his own arm and disappeared. This… this…

Li Yuanqi panicked. As long as he could escape now, there would always be a chance to make a comeback later.

“Why has the sky gone dark?”

At this moment, Li Yuanqi noticed that the once clear sky had suddenly turned gloomy. This sight made him uneasy—could it be about to rain?

While sprinting frantically, Li Yuanqi turned his head slightly, and in an instant, his hair stood on end.

“This is total annihilation…”

A giant hand, covering the sky and blotting out the sun, stretched across the void, seemingly infinite in size.

“Hmph, you think you can escape from under my palm? That’s just a dreamer’s fantasy. Be sealed!” Lin Fan scoffed contemptuously. He glanced at the Moon Palace disciples and noticed they were already mesmerized by his heroic posture, which delighted him greatly.

“No… I, Li Yuanqi, am a supreme ruler of this generation. How could I die here?” Li Yuanqi roared furiously, drenched in sweat, his heart pounding wildly.

BOOM…

In an instant, the earth shook and mountains trembled, and even the distant wastelands erupted with an unprecedented tremor.

“Ding, Congratulations on defeating Li Yuanqi, who has reached the peak of the Grand Heavenly Realm.”

“Ding, Congratulations on gaining 220 million experience points.”

“Ding, Congratulations on leveling up.”

“Minor Heavenly Realm Initial Stage (30 million / 2 billion).”

At this moment, every pore on Lin Fan’s body seemed to burst open, and he felt an indescribable euphoria.

Finally, damn it, he had leveled up.

To be both arrogant and level up at the same time—what a blissfully exhilarating feeling.

Madam Yue Xuan looked at Lin Fan in shock. For a moment, she thought she was seeing things. She realized that the aura of the man before her had become even stronger in that instant.

“Master Yue, I’m sorry about the disturbance caused by these younger generation folks. I hope it hasn’t brought too much trouble to your sect,” Lin Fan turned around and said solemnly.

“Not at all, not at all,” Madam Yue hurriedly replied, seeing his demeanor. “Master Lin, you’re doing me a great disservice. Without your timely intervention, the Moon Palace would have been doomed.”

Come on, how could they, a minor sect, possibly deserve such a courteous apology from a powerful figure like Master Lin.

At this moment, Lin Fan smiled, then swept his gaze across the stunned female disciples of the Moon Palace. His bright and vast eyes blinked slightly, like flashes of thunder.

“Ahh…”

The female disciples of the Moon Palace could no longer stand and collapsed to the ground again.

Their wide, astonished eyes stared at Lin Fan. What an overbearing man he was.

“Master Lin, what about that stone gate up there?” At this moment, Madam Yue pointed at the massive stone gate floating in the sky, asking with lingering fear.

At this moment, Lin Fan recalled the Blood Stone Gate.

The Blood Stone Gate was still floating quietly in the void, its thousand-meter-tall figure towering and exuding a blood-colored aura that inspired dread.

“This object is filled with evil. If left in the world, it will surely become a disaster. I shall seal it away to prevent it from falling into the hands of evildoers,” Lin Fan declared with righteous indignation, then flicked his sleeve, instantly sealing the Blood Stone Gate into his backpack.

He was quite interested in this gate and intended to study it thoroughly later.

Seeing Lin Fan casually seal away the Blood Stone Gate with a wave of his sleeve, Madam Yue was once again shocked. Such a technique was simply unimaginable.

Even Li Yuanqi could only place it within the void but couldn’t absorb it into himself.

“Master…”

At this moment, a voice came from not far away—it was Mu Han.

Their pace had been too slow to keep up with Lin Fan’s speed. By the time everything had ended, they had barely arrived.

Lin Fan felt a bit regretful. They had indeed arrived too late and missed the moment he displayed his might. Otherwise, he could have stunned them again.

For Lin Fan, who always pursued perfection, this was somewhat of a misstep. However, learning from setbacks leads to growth. With today’s experience, he would be able to perform even more flawlessly in the future.

“Han’er…”

Seeing her disciples approaching from afar, Madam Yue felt relieved. As long as they were safe, everything was fine.

“Senior sisters are safe…”

Seeing the newcomers, the female disciples of the Moon Palace cheered joyfully.

“Brother Lin, what about Li Yuanqi?” Feng Xiaoling immediately rushed to Lin Fan’s side and anxiously asked.

Along the way, they had been worried whether Brother Lin could handle Li Yuanqi. Yet now, the sky and earth were peaceful, which puzzled him slightly.

Lin Fan flicked his sleeve. “Li Yuanqi, who has committed countless evils and defied his superiors, has already been executed on the spot.”

“Ahh…” Feng Xiaoling was stunned, finding it hard to believe. Just like that, the Elder Li Yuanqi was gone?

At this moment, Feng Xiaoling’s gaze toward Brother Lin completely changed.

How powerful must he be?

“Master, it’s all thanks to Brother Lin that my juniors and I survived. If it weren’t for him, we would have perished in their hands,” Mu Han leaned close to Madam Yue and said.

“Just a small favor,” Lin Fan waved his hand casually and said indifferently, as if such a trivial matter wasn’t worth mentioning.

“You all come here,” Lin Fan gestured toward the disciples of the Jiuxiao Sect.

The Jiuxiao Sect disciples looked as if they had done something wrong, lowering their heads as they approached Lin Fan.

“Brother Lin, they were actually helpless. Please don’t punish them,” Feng Xiaoling pleaded on behalf of his junior brothers at this moment.

“Brother Lin, spare our lives! We all wanted to do good, but Li Yuanqi was just too domineering. If we didn’t obey, we would have suffered the same fate.”

At this moment, the Jiuxiao Sect disciples wept bitterly. If Lin Fan treated them the same way he had treated Li Yuanqi, it would truly be terrifying.

They had all witnessed that scene, and it was truly horrifying.

“Enough, death is forgivable, but punishment is unavoidable. However, considering your helplessness, I will let this go this time. However, since you are the ones who destroyed the Moon Palace Sect, you must take full responsibility for its reconstruction,” Lin Fan said, waving his hand, then turned to Madam Yue. “Master Yue, there seems to be an issue within Jiuxiao Sect. I need to go there personally. Please temporarily accommodate these disciples here.”

“Of course, no problem. Master Lin, you are our Moon Palace’s benefactor. Such a small matter is no issue at all,” Madam Yue hurriedly replied.

Madam Yue’s admiration for Lin Fan grew even higher. His character, demeanor, and bearing were truly admirable.

“Brother Lin, you’re going to Jiuxiao Sect. Take me with you,” Feng Xiaoling said at this moment.

“You just stay here quietly. That’s not something you can handle,” Lin Fan waved him off.

The Jiuxiao Sect disciples, who had just witnessed Lin Fan’s formidable display, nodded in agreement. The opponent Lin Fan was about to face was likely beyond their capabilities.

“Everyone, the matter is urgent. I’ll take my leave now,” Lin Fan bowed to the crowd and prepared to depart.

“Master Lin, won’t you stay a bit longer and let our Moon Palace show you our hospitality?” Madam Yue hurriedly said.

Lin Fan turned his back and waved his hand. “Jiuxiao Sect and the Holy Sect have been friendly for a thousand years. With this incident occurring, I must go immediately to investigate thoroughly. I’ll visit again when I have time. Farewell.” At that moment, Lin Fan didn’t wait for Madam Yue to say more and immediately soared into the distance.

“Lin…”

Madam Yue wanted to say something else, but seeing Master Lin leave, she sighed softly.

“What a brilliant young man, a rare talent in ten thousand years,” Madam Yue gazed into the sky and sighed.

The female disciples of the Moon Palace gazed affectionately at the retreating figure, as if their hearts had followed that departing silhouette into oblivion.

Seeing the gazes and expressions of her disciples, Madam Yue shook her head slightly and said nothing more.

Such a brilliant young man was the most dangerous kind. Every word and action exuded immense allure, and which female disciple of the sect could possibly resist it?

Even she, at over a hundred years old, couldn’t help but feel a slight tremor in her heart.

At this moment, Lin Fan felt a surge of exhilaration.

Leaving in haste after showing off, leaving behind legends, was indeed a joyous feeling.

And after Lin Fan departed,

At a distant location from the Moon Palace Sect, a figure appeared. Judging by the silhouette, it seemed to be a woman. If Lin Fan had seen her, he would have been slightly astonished—it was none other than the mysterious girl, Ye Han, whom he had encountered before.

“The aura of the Blood Realm…”
