Chapter 1054: Scared Stiff

His naked body stood between heaven and earth, with several shocking wounds on his abdomen, blood spilling everywhere. A powerful sword intent filled Long Jinfei's body, extinguishing his vitality, especially the little bird between his legs, swaying in the wind.

Long Jinfei still had a trace of consciousness. His mind was blank; he had actually been stabbed to death.

Boom!

In a brief thousandth of a second, Long Jinfei crashed to the ground, the light gradually fading from his eyes.

The surrounding martial artists were terrified.

“Ah, he’s dead, he’s dead.”

“He was a candidate disciple of the Kunlun Divine Sect’s sect master, and that person actually stabbed him to death. This is going to cause a huge disaster.”

Those who had been accompanying Long Jinfei stood frozen in place, as if stupefied, at the sight.

The person who had clashed with Long Jinfei was also shocked, then immediately retreated. This was a major incident; he absolutely could not stay here, or he would be implicated.

Especially since Long Jinfei, as a candidate disciple of the Kunlun Divine Sect’s sect master, had not only been stabbed to death but was also lying there naked, utterly disgracing the Kunlun Divine Sect.

If the Kunlun Divine Sect found out, they would definitely go berserk.

“Ding, congratulations on killing a high-level Ancestral Immortal.”

“Ding, congratulations on gaining experience…”

“Ding, obtained a storage ring.”

“Ding, congratulations on obtaining a low-grade immortal artifact, the Heavenly Fire Divine Spear.”

The harvest was quite good; there was even a low-grade immortal artifact. But to Lin Fan, these were of little use.

He opened the storage ring and took a look. It was indeed very good, with many pills, including quite a few low-grade immortal pills.

Lin Fan strolled forward leisurely. When the surrounding martial artists saw him, they fearfully scattered.

A ruthless man, truly a ruthless man.

Lin Fan looked left and right, feeling extremely pleased. Sometimes life’s luck was just too good. Passing by a city casually, he could encounter a disciple of the Kunlun Divine Sect. If it were before, he certainly wouldn’t have taken the other’s life, but now, the entire Kunlun Divine Sect wanted to kill him. Why should he be friendly with them? He feared nothing; if he met them, he would fight, regardless of their status in the Kunlun Divine Sect.

He pulled out the pills from Long Jinfei’s storage ring and stuffed them into his mouth. They were crunchy and sweet, and there were quite a lot of them. It seemed Long Jinfei had gained quite a harvest in the secret realm.

“Ding, congratulations on consuming a low-grade immortal pill.”

“Ding, congratulations on consuming a low-grade immortal pill.”

…

Experience surged, though naturally not as fast as from stabbing people.

The candidate disciples of the Kunlun Divine Sect’s sect master were really too easy to kill, and each one was especially wealthy. It had to be said, this was a great way to get rich.

He hoped that all the sects would be his enemies, so he could directly start killing. A wave of such killings would be extraordinary.

His mouth and teeth were fragrant; the taste of immortal pills was truly excellent, extraordinary.

At this moment, there was a stall ahead selling food. Lin Fan went up to ask about the price, but when the owner saw Lin Fan and then looked at the corpse in the distance, he abandoned his stall and ran as far as he could.

Everyone around knew that this man was a madman, daring to kill even a candidate disciple of the Kunlun Divine Sect’s sect master. This was a fight to the death.

“Boring.” Lin Fan felt it was about time to leave this place.

Who knew if the people from the Kunlun Divine Sect would find out about what happened here? If they did, and came directly to kill him, what then?

But at that moment, Lin Fan stopped and turned around. "Why are you following me?"

The few men who had been sticking close to Long Jinfei were sneaking after Lin Fan, as if trying to find out where he was going so they could report it.

Those men were startled, a flicker of fear on their faces. "No, we weren't following you."

Then Lin Fan directly took out the Heavenly Fire Divine Spear, a blazing flame roaring, the very void beginning to warp.

The men saw this and instantly turned pale with terror, then screamed in fright, "Don't kill us, don't kill us."

In the blink of an eye, the group fled, vanishing without a trace.

Lin Fan chuckled and continued on his way.

After Lin Fan left, several figures approached from afar.

The leading woman wore a black veil. Though her face was unclear, from the general outline one could tell she was beautiful, but her aura was chilling, like a demoness from the nine nether hells.

"Go see what happened," the woman said.

"Yes." The burly man following closely nodded, then went forward and quickly returned. "Milady, ahead lies Long Jinfei, candidate for sect master of Kunlun Divine Sect, but he has been slain and lies naked there."

The woman's expression shifted slightly, as did those of the people behind her.

Long Jinfei was a candidate disciple for sect master of Kunlun Divine Sect, his strength already at the Ancestral Immortal realm. At his age, he could be called a prodigy, yet now he had been killed—this shocked them greatly.

When the surrounding martial artists saw this woman, they also stepped aside.

They were not afraid of the woman herself, but of the token at her waist.

That purple token, exuding a chilling aura, bore only two characters.

"Zhentian."

They were from the Demon Suppression Heavenly Sect, a major sect among the six, belonging to the demonic path. Their conduct was bizarre and ruthless, and ordinary people dared not provoke them.

At that moment, those who had been tailing Lin Fan fled in panic.

The woman saw them and ordered, "Catch them and ask what's going on."

"Yes." The burly man nodded slightly, spread his five fingers, and the bodies of those men were uncontrollably pulled over. This move was domineering, forcibly bringing over several Golden Immortal experts—such strength was extraordinary.

"Don't kill us, we weren't following, we weren't!" the men screamed in terror.

"I know these men, Barefoot Golden Immortal and Tiance Golden Immortal. I never thought they'd be scared like this," the burly man said, a hint of disdain in his eyes.

"Speak, how did Long Jinfei die?" the burly man demanded.

"A man killed Long Jinfei," Tiance Golden Immortal said, pale-faced.

"How did he kill him?" the burly man pressed.

"It was like this: the man patted Long Jinfei on the shoulder, then suddenly a dagger stabbed into Long Jinfei's belly, like this—once, twice, three times—then another pat, and Long Jinfei's clothes were all gone. That man was too terrifying. He knew Long Jinfei was a candidate for sect master of Kunlun Divine Sect, yet he still dared to kill him. He must be a madman," Barefoot Golden Immortal shouted in terror.

None of the nine sects were easy to provoke.

The other party clearly knew Long Jinfei's identity, yet still dared to act—it was simply reckless.

"Interesting," the woman said, a flicker of surprise in her deep eyes.

The burly man looked at the men. "Get lost."

"Yes, yes..."

"Milady, this man is probably not simple. Long Jinfei was an early Ancestral Immortal, but to kill him so easily, this man's cultivation must be formidable," the burly man said.

"No matter. Let's go take a look," the woman said, her voice ethereal but carrying a chill.
