Chapter 243 - These People Aren't Human

In Imperial Capital’s central region, the area that the Imperial City took up was endless.

The most eye-catching thing was the center of it, a golden and bright palace that looked like the home of a celestial. Around it were long rows of jade steps that were correlated with the number of the stars; a total of 99 steps that wrapped the palace in the middle.

The entire palace hall was formed with 999 pieces of extreme quality wood.

Palace, reading room.

“Eh? Someone wiped out Nine Bug Gang’s division.” The Emperor looked at the documents and was in deep thought. He didn’t expect that someone would wipe out Nine Bug Gang’s division. What was recorded in the document was the name ‘Lin Fan’.

“Lin Wanyi’s son is called Lin Fan, is it his son?”

The Emperor thought about it but quickly denied it.

Maybe they had the same surname and name.

He had investigated Lin Fan as he wanted to marry a princess to him.

This was why he knew that Lin Wanyi’s son was trash, really trash. Compared to the sons of the various aristocratic families in the city, there was no room for comparison at all.

However, no matter what, the marriage had to happen.

That was a promise they had given to Lin Wanyi.

…

At that moment, Lin Fan faced the biggest problem in his life.

If he said it out probably no one would believe it.

He faced a bandit.

A bunch of men blocked in front of him. They carried wolf tooth bats and nine ringed blades and looked really aggressive. If anyone saw them, they would probably be scared to death.

But to Lin Fan, these bandits were just insulting him, insulting him.

Were you all just so arrogant?

Do you even dare to block the path of a God Essence Realm Expert? Were they really not afraid that he would beat them to death?

“Kid, if you are smart, then know your place. We don’t rape and don’t kill, we just want your money, so hand it over, otherwise, we will attack. Then, it will be a little uncivilized.” The leader’s mouth curled upward. He touched his bald head, that hairstyle, the way he acted, he was just so overbearing.

They traveled dozens of miles, purposely searching for people who was easy and alone, not for other reasons, but just out of the fear of meeting someone strong.

Lin Fan sat on the carriage and squinted his eyes, “Have you all seen a blade that can light up?”

“Eh?” His words stunned the bandits.

“What blade that lights up? Let me ask you have you seen a blade that turned red?” The bald bandit shouted in rage.

“Right, know your place, otherwise, a white blade will enter and the black blade will come out and you will be killed.” One of the little ones replied.

The bald bandit raged, “What are you saying? Why would a black blade come out? Is your blood black?”

Shua!

Lin Fan pulled out his blade, buffing it with True Essence. A bright and blinding glow radiated from it.

Shock!

The bandits looked at Lin Fan in astonishment like they had seen a ghost.

What was going on? Why did that blade have color? This guy’s cultivation was just too terrifying.

People like him, who had experience, naturally wouldn’t have too bad of discerning ability.

“Scram!” Lin Fan was lazy to waste time with them, he still had to rush back.

With a huala, the bandits instantly disappeared.

They had stepped onto someone strong, it was really good that he didn’t bother with them.

Lin Fan shook his head, it hurt. He was someone who treated money as dirt, he felt really problematic pulling this carriage full of money. However, he didn’t like to toss trash away, so he could only bring these things on his travels.

Today, he wanted to head back to Martial Path Mountain, so he had to pass by Fuzhou. But this place was still far from Fuzhou.

If he brought these two carriages worth of riches and didn’t change his path, he would definitely face members of Nine Bug Gang.

If he faced the gang members, nothing would happen, but if he faced the Gang Leader, then the situation would be really complicated.

Although he was confident in his strength, who knew how strong the Nine Bug Gang Gang Leader was?

If he was much stronger, then he was pretty much dead.

This was why he wanted to play safe and avoid in case he met the Gang Leader.

Then, he changed his path.

After all, he was planning to head past Chaojiang City, Chuanyue City, Puhe City to get to Kui City and then Fuzhou.

Now he didn’t head to Chaojiang City but going around these cities and back directly to Jiang City.

Nine Bug Gang Gang Leader’s rage burned all the cities that Nine Bug Gang was in charge of.

No one dared to go against his wishes.

In his eyes, their lives were probably worth less than one bug in his hands.

The Assassin Organisation was the strongest organisation in Nine Bug Gang, they were above all the Hall Heads.

There were 12 really strong people in it.

Their bodies were wrapped in robes and no one had ever seen them.

Ying Jiu was one of the deputy heads in the Assassin Organisation, but compared to these twelve, the gap was huge. Or rather, there was no way to compare at all.

Now under Gang Leader’s orders, the twelve strongest left Fuzhou to search for his tracks.

Several days later.

In the forest.

The carriage moved slowly. Lin Fan laid on the boxes and hummed. He was really leisure, not panicking at all.

Too many things happened recently and he had wiped out so many divisions, so he wanted to take a good rest.

He had been thinking about something.

Should he spent this wealth in a city or bring them back to Martial Path Mountain?

Suddenly, a wind blew around him and many leaves landed, spinning in mid-air and then landing slowly onto the ground.

Such scenes were normal in a quiet forest but to Lin Fan, it wasn’t.

It was even a little weird.

Slowly, killing intent boiled in the forest, like it was about to cover the entire forest.

“Stop hiding, I have noticed you all. Come out.”

Lin Fan sat up and looked around. Although there was no one there, he already sensed that boiling killing intent.

“I went around and you can still find me, you are really amazing.”

“Forget it, I will be honest, I did it. All of you come out, let’s end it. It would be good for everyone involved.”

Instantly, there seemed to be something moving all about, directly blocking Lin Fan’s path.

Lin Fan jumped off from the carriage and landed on his fit. With a peng, with him as the center, a thick True Essence wave exploded out.

With a “honglong”, the pockets of dirt that came from all around exploded and black mist spread everywhere.

In an instant,12 people surrounded Lin Fan. They stood there and didn’t move at all. The eyes hidden beneath the robes started deathly at Lin Fan.

They were sure that this was the person they wanted to find.

“Amazing, all of you are experts.” Lin Fan already sensed a terrifying aura from their bodies, totally different from those other small shrimps from Nine Bug Gang.

“This was the battle I was looking forward to.”

When he said this, the twelve experts of the Assassin Organisation attacked. They didn’t waste any time to talk nonsense with Lin Fan. Their movements were in unison, like they had trained 1,000 times.

“Ten Thousand Sword.”

In an instant, numerous swords spun, forming a circle. With a whistling sound, it struck out in all directions.

Peng!

There was a loud explosion.

The Ten Thousand Sword was not weak, it was an extremely terrifying sword technique. However, the twelve of them weren’t weak either. It was impossible to kill them with just this alone.

“Lightning Blade Four Strokes – Heaven and Earth Destruction.”

Lin Fan held his blade, True Essence rolled out. Thick True Essence wrapped around the blade, forming a terrifying blade glow as he slashed forward.

He had already reached God Essence Realm and when he used that blade, it became even more terrifying.

The space around was covered by the blade energy, the air started to twist and numerous blade glows slashed.

Puchi!

One Assassin Organisation expert’s stomach was sliced open. Blood didn’t spurt out as expected, a weird thing moved quickly, connecting the split open flesh together.

“This…”

When Lin Fan noticed that, he realized that the situation was a little off.

Dragon Elephant!

Heaven Shocking!

Ten Thousand Sword!

Great Samsara Sword!

Lin Fan hollered, his palms facing up and numerous swords floated around him. At that moment, he used four sword techniques, the True Essence consumption reached a really high level.

Normal God Essence Realm Experts couldn’t take it but to Lin Fan it was just a small issue and wasn’t difficult at all.

“Slice!”

Lin Fan’s words landed.

An airtight sword intent exploded and suppressed the area in all directions.

The sword intent dealt really high damage to the 12 of them, but they didn’t cry out, it was like they didn’t feel any pain at all.

They allowed the sword intent to slice them apart, those open wounds closed in the blink of an eye.

Suddenly, an Assassin Organisation Expert appeared in front of Lin Fan, a black glow shone on his arms and he struck toward Lin Fan’s stomach.

Peng!

A palm smacked his stomach, terrifying power exploded out and forced Lin Fan back.

The other experts attacked too, like they were performing a combination strike, one palm after another landed on his body, smashing him into the ground and forming a deep hole.

A shocking energy wave spread out and destroyed the surrounding trees.

The twelve of them stood together. There was no movement, they still didn’t say a word.

A black mist spread around their bodies, forming a black bug with twelve legs.

Cough cough!

“Amazing, really amazing.”

Slowly, Lin Fan stood up from the deep hole and coughed. Blood seeped from the corner of his mouth. He raised his head and looked at the twelve of them, “I thought that you were not that strong, who knew you were of such a high level?”

“This blade, this sword, how problematic. It seems like I need to use my strongest attack to deal with all of you.”

With a “xiu”, Lin Fan tossed the sword and blade at the side and slowly walked out of the hole.

He didn’t expect Nine Bug Gang to actually have such experts.

These people were definitely at God Essence Realm, as for the specifics he had no idea.

But it was weird.

He felt that these people weren’t humans at all.

But it didn’t matter.

Even if they weren’t humans.

They had to die.

What a waste…

They didn’t provide him with any rage points.
