“Thank you, senior brother… thank you, senior brother…” Feng Xiaoling said with tears of gratitude. Finally, Senior Lin had given him this opportunity—it was just too blissful.
“I told you not to call me senior brother,” Lin Fan glared.
“Alright, alright…” Feng Xiaoling immediately nodded.
“This Li Tianxing committed grave crimes before and was imprisoned in the dungeon. Later, for reasons unknown, the sect leader released him. This man is ruthless and cruel. Just now, a junior brother was brutally killed because he opposed Li Tianxing’s behavior toward… the disciples of the Moon Palace Sect. This person is vicious and powerful, much stronger than us. The other juniors are furious but dare not speak out,” Feng Xiaoling quickly explained Li Tianxing’s crimes, hoping Lin Fan wouldn’t misunderstand.
“Yeah, Li Tianxing really went too far. My junior brother was killed just because he disagreed.”
“Waaah, my poor junior brother, dying so tragically.”
“We’re all furious but helpless.”
“Even when attacking the Moon Palace Sect, we never agreed with it, but orders were hard to defy.”
The disciples of Jiuxiao Sect stood nearby, lamenting their miserable current situation.
“Senior Lin, now Jiuxiao Sect has changed, and so has our sect leader. Everyone is living in fear. In the past, Jiuxiao Sect did wage wars against other sects, but those sects were all harmful to the world,” Feng Xiaoling shook his head with a sigh, unable to understand.
“Hmph, Jiuxiao Sect only waged wars against harmful sects, but why does our Moon Palace Sect, which keeps to itself, have to be destroyed?” At this moment, Mu Han’s face turned sorrowful and angry as she pointed at Feng Xiaoling and accused him.
Lin Fan raised his hand to silence her.
Mu Han, seeing Lin Fan’s gesture, reluctantly stood there with resentment, her eyes still glaring fiercely at the Jiuxiao Sect members.
“Where is my senior brother Xin Feng?” Lin Fan asked.
Upon hearing this, Feng Xiaoling wiped his eyes. “Senior Lin, this story is long. When the sect leader announced the attack on the Moon Palace Sect, he gathered the disciples. Senior Brother Xin Feng and several elders strongly opposed it, but the sect leader imprisoned them all in the dungeon under false charges. We don’t even know if they’re alive or dead. My brothers and I were too scared to oppose him…”
“Senior Lin, no matter what, I’m still a proud prodigy of Jiuxiao Sect, but now I’m living worse than those imprisoned for serious crimes,” Feng Xiaoling, no longer his usual carefree self, lamented, his once flamboyant paper fan now gone.
“Alright, enough about your plight. Just tell me exactly what happened in the sect,” Lin Fan waved his hand, not wanting to hear more complaints, though he felt something serious must have happened to Jiuxiao Sect.
“Senior Lin, the sect leader is like a completely different person now. Those vicious disciples were personally imprisoned by him before, but now he’s released them and even let them lead us… Senior Lin, we’re living in dire straits now. Look at these juniors—none of them want to fight. We all know the Moon Palace Sect is one of the most peaceful and friendly sects in cultivation. How could we possibly want to destroy them? But we had no choice but to follow orders.”
Feng Xiaoling wasn’t stupid. With this speech, he lavishly praised the Moon Palace Sect.
Indeed, the expressions of the Moon Palace disciples softened, and some even began to look more favorably at Feng Xiaoling.
Feng Xiaoling was truly handsome, and even a female disciple from the Moon Palace Sect had developed a liking for him.
Lin Fan remained silent, lost in thought.
Grand Elder Liang Yichu had turned evil, and now the Jiuxiao Sect leader had changed as well—could there be a connection?
The more Lin Fan thought, the more suspicious it seemed. This was getting too much like solving a mystery. Forget it—he wouldn’t think anymore. Any conspiracy would crumble before his absolute power.
Since he couldn’t figure it out, he’d just go to Jiuxiao Sect himself. If the sect leader had indeed turned like Liang Yichu, he’d just kill him with one palm strike.
Simple and effective—no more trouble.
“Who is leading this attack on the Moon Palace Sect?” Lin Fan asked.
“Senior Lin, the leader of this attack is the former Grand Elder Li Yuanqi. He was an elder of our sect who once cultivated a demonic technique, slaughtered ten cities of ordinary people—billions in total—and was later imprisoned by the sect leader. Now he’s been released,” Feng Xiaoling’s face turned pale as he spoke of Li Yuanqi.
Bloodthirsty, domineering, and cruel—truly terrifying.
On the way to attack the Moon Palace Sect, he casually destroyed a small city with millions of people, turning it into a living hell filled with wailing souls—just thinking about it sent chills down the spine.
Lin Fan was speechless now. Could it be that Jiuxiao Sect’s leadership had been taken over by demonic figures? Those imprisoned in the dungeon were all ruthless and powerful individuals.
In terms of combat strength, ordinary Grand Elders couldn’t really match these vicious demons.
Mu Han, who had been listening quietly, also changed expression drastically upon hearing the name Li Yuanqi.
“Are you talking about the Li Yuanqi who wiped out the Qi Kingdom and Chi Huang Kingdom… in one night, decades ago?” Mu Han asked, her face pale.
“Yes,” Feng Xiaoling nodded.
At this moment, Mu Han staggered back a few steps in shock.
“How is this possible? My master told me that Li Yuanqi cultivated a world-destroying demonic technique, his cultivation level far surpassing ordinary experts at the peak of the Grand Heaven Realm. He has already condensed twelve chains of rules. If that’s true, then our Moon Palace Sect… it’s doomed…” Mu Han couldn’t even bear to imagine it anymore.
She had always believed that the sect’s mountain formation could withstand an expert at the peak of the Grand Heaven Realm, but Li Yuanqi was different. His heaven-defying demonic technique, built on human resentment, had already formed twelve chains of rules—this was no ordinary opponent.
“Senior Lin, please save our sect. I, Mu Han, am willing to serve you as a slave, to do anything…” At this moment, Mu Han was in a panic, her face filled with desperate pleading.
“Didn’t this woman try to harm my senior brother before? Now she’s begging him for help? Li Yuanqi is too terrifying for us to handle. Even if Lin Senior is strong, he can’t possibly defeat Li Yuanqi,” Feng Xiaoling was furious at this moment. Was this woman crazy?
She actually wanted their revered Senior Lin to go to his death.
“Hmph,” Lin Fan looked displeased at Feng Xiaoling in this moment.
Feng Xiaoling was slightly taken aback—had he said something wrong?
“Senior Lin, this…”
“I’m asking you, how many chains of rules did Grand Elder Liang Yichu condense?” Lin Fan, naturally excited at the prospect of facing a boss, still wanted to know a bit more.
“Ten,” Feng Xiaoling didn’t understand why Senior Lin was asking this.
At this moment, Lin Fan smiled. Ten chains were smashed by him with one palm strike—twelve chains probably wouldn’t be much different.
“Hmph, junior brother Feng, remember this: how can we cultivators fear death? The Moon Palace Sect keeps to itself and is a righteous sect, one of our own kind. How can we stand by and watch it be destroyed? Today, even if I die, I will defend our sect. If you’re scared, just leave—I’ll go alone,” Lin Fan said with great righteousness, flaring his sleeve.
At this moment, the female disciples of the Moon Palace Sect completely changed their view of Lin Fan.
It was no longer admiration—it was pure adoration. If Lin Fan had waved at them now, those eighteen female disciples might have taken off their clothes and rushed to him.
“Let’s go—we must defend justice today,” Lin Fan declared.
“Senior Lin, the chicken on your shoulder seems strangely familiar,” one of the Moon Palace Sect female disciples curiously asked.
Lin Fan, walking proudly ahead, immediately froze, then his expression changed. He coughed lightly. “This is just a wild chicken I just caught. After defending justice later, I’ll personally roast it for all the junior sisters to taste.” Without waiting for the chicken to protest, Lin Fan directly threw it into his backpack.
That was close—he almost got exposed.
…
“Senior Feng, I misjudged you. I didn’t expect you to be so cowardly. although I’m not strong, I will still go with Senior Lin to stop the sect from continuing down this wrong path.”
“Me too…”
“Senior Feng, this is the last time I’ll call you senior brother. Even if I die, I will die honorably.”
The junior disciples of Jiuxiao Sect approached Feng Xiaoling, sighing slightly, as if deeply disappointed.
“Thank you, senior brother, thank you…” Feng Xiaoling said with tears of gratitude, finally getting the chance from Senior Brother Lin, it was truly a moment of bliss.
“I told you, don’t call me senior brother,” Lin Fan glared.
“Alright, alright…” Feng Xiaoling nodded immediately.
“This Li Tianxing once committed a grave mistake and was imprisoned in the dungeon. Later, for reasons unknown, the sect leader released him. This man is ruthless. Just now, a junior brother who disagreed with Li Tianxing’s actions towards… towards the disciples of the Moon Palace Sect was brutally killed by him. This man is cruel and his strength surpasses ours. Many junior brothers dare not speak out against him,” Feng Xiaoling first recounted Li Tianxing’s crimes, hoping Lin Fan wouldn’t misunderstand.
“Yes, this Li Tianxing is really too much. The junior brother was killed just for disagreeing.”
“Wuwu, my poor junior brother, died so unjustly.”
“We also dare not speak out.”
“Even if it’s about attacking the Moon Palace Sect, we originally didn’t agree, but orders are hard to defy.”
The disciples of the Nine Heavens Sect also stood by, lamenting their miserable lives.
“Senior Brother Lin, now the Nine Heavens Sect has changed, the sect leader has changed, and everyone is in a state of panic. In the past, our Nine Heavens Sect also waged wars against other sects, but those sects were ones that harmed the world,” Feng Xiaoling shook his head and sighed, very confused.
“Hmph, your Nine Heavens Sect only wages wars against sects that harm the world, but our Moon Palace Sect is peaceful, why destroy our sect?” At this moment, Mu Han, with a face full of grief and indignation, pointed at Feng Xiaoling and scolded.
Lin Fan extended his hand, signaling for silence.
Seeing Lin Fan’s gesture, Mu Han stood there resentfully, still glaring angrily at the members of the Nine Heavens Sect.
“Why didn’t my brother Xin Feng come?” Lin Fan asked.
Hearing this, Feng Xiaoling wiped the corner of his eye, “Senior Brother Lin, it’s a long story. When the sect leader announced the attack on the Moon Palace Sect, he gathered the disciples. Senior Brother Xin Feng and several elders unanimously opposed, but they were all imprisoned in the dungeon by the sect leader on charges, their fates unknown. I and several junior brothers, out of fear, dared not oppose…”
“Senior Brother Lin, no matter what, I, Feng Xiaoling, am a proud disciple of the Nine Heavens Sect, but now I live worse than those who committed grave mistakes and are imprisoned in the dungeon…” Feng Xiaoling no longer had his former elegance, even the paper fan he used to show off was gone.
“Enough, don’t talk about your matters, just tell me what exactly happened in the sect?” Lin Fan waved his hand, not wanting to hear Feng Xiaoling’s lament, but feeling that something major must have happened in the Nine Heavens Sect.
“Senior Brother Lin, the sect leader has changed completely. Those extremely vicious disciples were all personally imprisoned by the sect leader, but now the sect leader has released them and let them lead us… Senior Brother Lin, we are now living in dire straits. Look at these junior brothers, who would want to go out to fight? We know the Moon Palace Sect is a top-friendly sect in the cultivation world, how could we possibly want to destroy it? It’s just that the orders are hard to defy, we have no choice but to do so.”
Feng Xiaoling was not foolish, with these words, he heavily flattered the Moon Palace Sect.
Indeed, the expressions of the Moon Palace Sect’s disciples softened considerably, and some even looked at Feng Xiaoling more favorably.
Feng Xiaoling was truly handsome, even a female disciple of the Moon Palace Sect developed a liking for him.
Lin Fan remained silent, lost in thought.
Elder Liang Yichu has turned dark, and the Nine Heavens Sect leader has changed completely, could it be that…
The more Lin Fan thought, the more mysterious it seemed, it’s like solving a case, forget it, any conspiracy, in the face of my absolute strength, will crumble and turn to ashes.
Since I can’t figure it out, I’ll just go to the Nine Heavens Sect. If the sect leader has indeed turned dark like Liang Yichu, then I’ll just slap him to death.
End it all, save the trouble.
“Who is leading this attack on the Moon Palace Sect?” Lin Fan asked.
“Senior Brother Lin, the leader of this attack on the Moon Palace Sect is the former elder Li Yuanqi. This Li Yuanqi was once an elder of the older generation in the sect. Because he practiced a demonic technique, he slaughtered ten cities of mortals, billions of people. Later, he was discovered by the sect leader and imprisoned in the dungeon, but now he has been released,” Feng Xiaoling’s face paled considerably when mentioning Li Yuanqi.
Bloody, domineering, cruel, terrifying.
On the way to attack the Moon Palace Sect, he casually destroyed a city, that small city with tens of millions of people, like a hell on earth, with wailing souls, just thinking about it sends chills down the spine.
Lin Fan was also speechless, damn it, has the upper echelon of the Nine Heavens Sect been taken over by great demons? Those imprisoned in the dungeon by the sect are all ruthless individuals, and their strength is also very high.
In terms of combat power, ordinary elders really can’t match these ruthless demons.
Mu Han, who had been listening all along, also changed her expression drastically upon hearing the name Li Yuanqi.
“The Li Yuanqi you mentioned, is he the one who slaughtered the Qi Zong Kingdom, the Chi Huang Kingdom… overnight?” Mu Han asked with a pale face.
“Yes,” Feng Xiaoling nodded.
At this moment, Mu Han trembled and took a few steps back.
“How is this possible? I heard from my master that Li Yuanqi practiced the World-Destroying Demonic Technique, his cultivation is much stronger than ordinary Great Heaven Perfection realm experts, he has condensed twelve chains of rules. If this is true, then our Moon Palace Sect’s sect might… might…” Mu Han dared not imagine further.
Originally, she firmly believed that the Moon Palace Sect’s mountain gate array could withstand ordinary Great Heaven Perfection realm experts, but this Li Yuanqi is not ordinary, that inverse demonic technique, based on the resentment of mortals, has condensed twelve chains of rules, extraordinary…
“Senior Brother Lin, I beg you, save our sect, I, Mu Han, am willing to serve as an ox or a horse, to be a slave or a maid…” Mu Han panicked at this moment, her face full of pleading.
“Woman, aren’t you harming my Senior Brother Lin? At this time, we should definitely seek help from the Holy Sect. That Li Yuanqi is not someone we can deal with, even if Senior Brother Lin is powerful, he can’t possibly be a match for Li Yuanqi,” Feng Xiaoling was furious at this moment, has this woman gone mad?
Knowing how terrifying Li Yuanqi is, yet still sending our admired Senior Brother Lin to his death.
“Hmm,” at this moment, Lin Fan looked somewhat displeased at Feng Xiaoling.
Feng Xiaoling was slightly stunned, had he said something wrong?
“Senior Brother Lin, this…”
“I ask you, how many chains of rules has Elder Liang Yichu condensed?” Facing a boss ahead, naturally, it’s thrilling, but at this time, it’s still necessary to get a bit of a feel for the situation.
“Ten,” Feng Xiaoling didn’t understand why Senior Brother Lin asked this.
At this moment, Lin Fan smiled, damn it, ten were slapped to death by me, these twelve probably aren’t that impressive either.
“Hmph, Junior Brother Feng, you must remember, people like us, how can we be afraid of death? The Moon Palace Sect is peaceful, it’s a righteous sect, and we are of the same lineage, how can we stand by and watch them die? Even if it means death today, we must defend our lineage. If you’re afraid, then leave, I’ll go alone,” Lin Fan flicked his sleeve, speaking with great righteousness.
At this moment, the female disciples of the Moon Palace Sect looked at Lin Fan with completely changed eyes.
It was no longer just appreciation, but complete adoration. If Lin Fan were to beckon now, probably all eighteen female disciples of the Moon Palace Sect would undress and throw themselves at him.
“Let’s go, today we must defend justice,” Lin Fan declared loudly.
“Senior Brother Lin, the chicken on your shoulder, why does it look so familiar?” At this moment, a female disciple of the Moon Palace Sect curiously asked.
Lin Fan, who was walking ahead with great righteousness, suddenly paused, then his expression changed, he coughed lightly, “This is a wild game I just caught, after defending justice, I’ll personally roast it for all the junior sisters to taste.” After saying this, Lin Fan didn’t wait for the chick to protest, directly throwing it into his backpack.
Close call, almost exposed.
…
“Senior Brother Feng, I misjudged you, I didn’t expect you to be so afraid of death. Although I’m useless, I will also go with Senior Brother Lin to stop the sect from continuing down this wrong path.”
“Me too…”
“Senior Brother Feng, this is the last time I call you Senior Brother Feng, even if it means death, it’s a glorious death.”
The junior brothers of the Nine Heavens Sect came before Feng Xiaoling, sighing slightly, as if very disappointed.
Feng Xiaoling stood alone in the wind, disheveled, with a face full of grievance, “I didn’t say I wouldn’t go, Senior Brother Lin, I’m just worried about you.”
“Senior Brother Lin, wait for me, I, Feng Xiaoling, am not afraid of death…” Feng Xiaoling hurriedly chased after.
“Senior Lin, wait for me! I, Feng Xiaoling, am not afraid of death…” Feng Xiaoling hurriedly chased after him.
