Chapter 1055: Who's Afraid of Whom

The big man hesitated inwardly. This man had killed a candidate for the position of sect master of the Kunlun Divine Sect, thus forging a blood feud with them. If they got too close to him, wouldn't it bring trouble?

But the lady didn't seem to care about that, and he didn't say much more.

Long Jinfei's death caused no great stir; it only spread within a small circle. There was no earth-shattering battle—just three simple stabs, and he was dead. That was impossible for any Ancestral Immortal realm expert.

An Ancestral Immortal realm expert could be said to be an indestructible existence. Even if their body was shattered into pieces, their divine sense could escape. But under Lin Fan's three stabs, not even the divine sense, let alone the Ancestral Immortal laws, could remain intact; they all crumbled into fragments and ceased to exist.

"Indeed, this place isn't bad," Lin Fan remarked, looking around at his surroundings.

Long Jinfei's death would probably take some time to reach the Kunlun Divine Sect. For now, Lin Fan wasn't afraid. What was meant to come would come eventually; though one could hide, there was no need to live so wearily.

"Please wait."

Just then, a voice came.

Lin Fan turned around and looked at the few people before him, especially the token at the waist of the veiled woman: "Suppressing Demon Sect."

"What is it?" Lin Fan glanced over. The cultivation of these people was quite strong, especially the big man standing behind, who was actually at the high-level Ancestral Immortal realm.

As for the veiled woman, her cultivation was also at the initial Ancestral Immortal realm. The others were not worth mentioning—mere Golden Immortal ants, not even at the Great Perfection stage.

The woman spoke with a smile, "To kill a candidate for the position of sect master of the Kunlun Divine Sect and still be so leisurely strolling around—this is the first time I've seen such a thing."

Lin Fan shrugged, "Not bad. But what do you want?"

"Nothing much. Just want to make your acquaintance," the woman said.

Lin Fan felt an impulse to kill her on the spot. Her cultivation was decent, and she was from a demon sect. Killing her would be carrying out justice on behalf of heaven; his conscience wouldn't be burdened, and he might even be thanked profusely.

Of course, that was just a thought. The big man with his high-level Ancestral Immortal cultivation was probably not so simple.

His aura seemed ordinary, but his physical body was crisscrossed with several black lines, as if he had cultivated some kind of supreme divine ability, with a very powerful energy flowing within.

"Making acquaintance is fine, as long as you're not afraid of death. May I ask the beauty's name?" Lin Fan asked with a smile.

The big man immediately roared angrily, "How dare you! Watch your tone!"

"Oh, quite high and mighty, aren't you? High-level Ancestral Immortal is not bad, but if I want to kill you, it's not impossible. So you'd better watch your tone," Lin Fan said, glancing at the big man without a trace of concern.

Although with his true abilities, he might not necessarily be able to kill him, big guys were usually a bit stupid.

"Shut up," the woman scolded. The big man glared at Lin Fan with anger but silently stepped back and said nothing.

"Mo Qingxuan."

"Nice name. Remember my name: Lin Fan," Lin Fan said.

When he said his name, the furious big man's expression suddenly changed: "You're the one who suppressed the Kunlun Divine Mountain."

"Lin Fan, candidate for sect master of the Heaven and Earth Sect."

"Huh?" Lin Fan was startled. Not many people knew about him suppressing the Kunlun Divine Mountain. Could it be that Tianfeng Ling himself had spread the news?

What a big heart that guy had—getting tricked and still going around telling people. That was impressive; he had to give him credit.

Mo Qingxuan laughed melodiously, "I never expected that a candidate for sect master of the Heaven and Earth Sect would have such guts—tricking Tianfeng Ling, the deputy sect master of the Kunlun Divine Sect, out of the Kunlun Divine Mountain, and still daring to use his real name outside. I admire that."

Lin Fan said nonchalantly, "Why hide when you've done it with real skill? If I wanted to hide, I wouldn't have done it in the first place."

Mo Qingxuan was taken aback, then laughed.

"So, what's the real matter? Out here, I only recognize two kinds of people: passersby and enemies," Lin Fan said.

"Interesting. I came here first to see the man bold enough to kill a candidate for sect master of the Kunlun Divine Sect, and second to propose a collaboration," Mo Qingxuan said.

Lin Fan loved collaborating with others. But usually, such collaborations were never good things, and in the end, they would inevitably try to screw each other over.

"Collaboration? I like that. What's it about? If there's profit, I don't mind," Lin Fan said.

"This place isn't suitable for conversation. How about we talk slowly in the shop?" Mo Qingxuan said.

"Fine."

...

Inside the shop.

"You mean a treasure site, and you want me to go with you?" Lin Fan asked in surprise. He didn't expect such a good deal.

"Naturally. Only Qin Shengjun of the Divine Origin Sect knows about this treasure. But besides him, I also know a little, though compared to Qin Shengjun, it's far from enough," Mo Qingxuan said.

"Heh," Lin Fan chuckled, scheming inwardly. There had to be a catch. If it were really a great treasure, would anyone be willing to share it with him?

"Alright, no problem. We can collaborate," Lin Fan agreed directly, without any hesitation.

No matter what schemes or tricks were involved, they were useless against him. Once they reached the destination, he would just act alone.

Mo Qingxuan was taken aback, then smiled, "Good. Then it's settled."

...

After deciding, they prepared to set out the next day.

"Milady, Qin Shengjun went to the Kunlun Divine Sect to borrow divine fire to temper his divine ability, promising the Kunlun Divine Sect three slots. By then, the situation might be tricky. Especially this guy—he doesn't look like a good person. Why bring such an unstable element with us? Even if you value his abilities, there's no need to keep such a danger close."

Mo Qingxuan smiled, but there was a chill in her smile: "Value him? No. At first, I really just wanted to see what kind of person could do such a thing. But now that I've confirmed he's a disciple of the Heaven and Earth Sect, an idea has formed in my mind. If it succeeds, it might have an unexpected effect."

The big man looked at Mo Qingxuan with slight confusion, then suddenly smiled, as if understanding the connection.

Another room.

Lin Fan sat cross-legged. His cultivation was now at the Golden Immortal Great Perfection stage, just one step away from the Ancestral Immortal realm. If he could break through to the Ancestral Immortal realm, he would be able to kill gods and buddhas alike.

As for those strong figures below the deputy sect master level in these major sects, he would punch them all to death.

And this time, Lin Fan had seized an opportunity.

Whether it was the Kunlun Divine Sect or the Suppressing Demon Sect, he would kill them all, not letting a single one escape.

Massive experience was what Lin Fan needed most.

Trying to take him to a great treasure site? Wasn't that just trying to screw him over?

Bring it on. Who's afraid of whom?
