Chapter 228: Who Is Acting Cool?

“Damn, this fellow is really so terrifying.”

When he sensed that the oppositon had broken his connection with the bugs, he didn’t hesitate, riding his horse and leaving.

He wanted to tell him that he was just teaching Nine Bug Gang a lesson today.

He didn’t want to be too arrogant.

Otherwise, his future life would be terrible.

Unfortunately, he felt that this wasn’t the right time. Sometimes, it was best for someone to be low profile.

Although he hadn’t clashed with the Nine Bug Gang clan head, since he managed to slice apart his connection with the bugs, that was enough to show that he was an expert in bug control. In terms of strength, he was being suppressed too.

On the first estimate, he was definitely exceeding Peak Grandmaster.

If he wasn’t, even if he was beaten to death, he didn’t dare believe that a Peak Grandmaster could be so strong.

The key was that before he left, he felt a certain pressure landing on him.

If he was slightly later, he might have been noticed.

“Why do I feel like I have offended a really amazing person?”

Lin Fan smiled, his expression was one in which he didn’t care much about that person.

That was indeed the case.

So what if he was strong? If he had balls, then come beat him up, he deserved to get beaten.

Hehe!

Lin Fan was someone who deserved to be beaten up. If people saw him, they would be so furious that their blood pressure would rise but there was nothing they could do about it.

Fuzhou was a distance away from Black Mountain.

The Tao River stretched for a long distance, connecting many cities. The reason why Fuzhou could become a huge city was because it was right beside the Nutao River.

Several days later.

“How is Black Mountain which is in the middle of Nutao River so long. Why couldn’t it be on land? Why did it have to end up in the river? Why couldn’t a wave just smack it apart.” Lin Fan rode on his horse. He rested on shore and looked out, he couldn’t see anything.

He was too far away.

There were a few ships with the captains lazing around. It was obvious that Black Mountain’s existence wasn’t a secret. Many people wanted to go there which was why there were captains earning money from it.

Lin Fan came to a hidden location and tied the horse to the tree.

“Stay here, when I return, whether or not I can see you depends on your luck.”

What he was most afraid of was horse thieves.

If he didn’t tie it, his horse and his relationship wasn’t too deep, so there was a high chance it would run away.

He came to a captain.

“What is Black Mountain like?” Lin Fan asked.

The captain said, “Fellow hero, Black Mountain has existed for a long time. I heard that there are many terrifying monsters. Although we have sailed here for many years, we have never entered Black Mountain, so we don’t know much.”

He didn’t say that many went and few returned.

If he described Black Mountain so terrifyingly, not many people would want to head there and they wouldn’t be able to do any business.

Lin Fan wanted to confirm its existence. Today, it seemed like it did exist. It was just that it would take a long time to get over there.

“Fellow hero, are you heading to Black Mountain? To and fro for one silver.” A captain asked. He looked at his dressing, quite decent, he should be a rich person.

“No need.”

When he said this, Lin Fan opened his fingers, and using internal strength, he smashed a tree. He sliced off the head and tail and tossed it forward.

He jumped up, stepping on the wood. He stood straight, his arms behind his back. He allowed the wind to push him and didn’t panic at all.

“This kid is quite skilled.” The captain was shocked. He had never seen someone head to Black Mountain like that. However, was he really able to?

Even they would take a full day to get there.

This kid was stepping on a piece of wood, he might just fall off halfway.

Lin Fan cultivated both internal and external cultivation. The speed of the wood he threw out was so fast, in a blink of an eye it covered 100 meters.

Time passed.

He finally understood why there were ships sending people over.

Black Mountain was still a distance away.

Normal experts used internal strength to walk on water. They could do that for a short distance but it was impossible to maintain that for long. Before they arrived, their internal strength would run out and they would fall into the river.

The wood’s speed slowed down and it lost momentum.

Lin Fan grabbed the head of it, floating up and down along with it. When he was about to fall into the river, a thick internal strength spread to his legs.

Honglong!

A circular ditch appeared on the river surface. He raised his hands and tossed the wood forward and jumped right up. The river surface exploded once more.

Many people had thought of such a method before.

But very few were able to truly control it.

Night fell.

“I am here.” Lin Fan saw Black Mountain that stood on the ocean’s surface. The sky was too dark and one couldn’t see the full Black Mountain. However, he was still unable to see the outline of Black Mountain.

Peng!

He landed on the ground, the shore was corroded by water, so it should have been soft. However, when he stepped, he realized that it was really hard.

“Interesting.”

There were shallow beaches all around and in front of him was a dense forest.

“This type of place again… Why can’t it be an endless wilderness?”

He hated forests that was because one didn’t know what was hidden inside. The dark environment was filled with many dangers. Not only were terrifying things, but there were many ants and beasts.

That person from Xuanshu College said that a Peak Grandmaster Sword Palace was killed in a single move. This place definitely had a terrifying presence within.

Play it safe, be low profile, don’t be too unrestrained or the outcome will be catastrophic.

He really didn’t dare say that he could leave safely.

He walked in but for now he looked on from the outside.

He was searching for those people who came to Black Mountain.

There were definitely people who knew what was inside Black Mountain or what was hidden within.

If there weren’t any good benefits, then why would so many people come?

“Eh There were signs of a campfire here which meant that someone had spent time here.” Lin Fan looked at a bunch of black wood which had no temperature. He observed the situation around warily.

Before he even headed in, he saw signs of humans. It seemed like he had to be a little more careful.

Lin Fan jumped up and landed on a branch.

Bug Controlling Technique’s special internal strength spread out. The bugs in hiding shook. Internal Strength entered their bodies and they mutated.

“It is better to be more careful.”

Lin Fan was a little nervous. It wasn’t that he was timid but because he didn’t know what kind of terrifying experts he would face.

If he really faced one, then that would be tragic.

Numerous bugs hid in the ground and in the air.

As long as someone entered their range, he would know right away.

Deep in the night, Lin Fan laid on a tree and rested. Suddenly, he opened his eyes. Movement spread in as someone stepped on one of the bugs.

“Someone really came?”

He didn’t make a sound. He didn’t use the bugs to swallow these people. Before he was clear about the situation, he chose to be low profile.

In the distance, three people moved about in the darkness, their footsteps were a little messy and they seemed to be in a panic.

Those three people didn’t head toward Lin Fan but came to the shoreline like they were searching for boats.

“Where is the boat? Where is the boat that was supposed to wait for us?” One of them asked in despair. They made the captain wait for them but now there were no boats at all.

“It seemed like the captain ran.” Another person said.

“How could he do that? Didn’t we agree from the start? He actually ran, how annoying, how annoying.”

The three of them panicked. Black Mountain was dangerous but actually it wasn’t so much so. As long as one didn’t head to deep in, one wouldn’t face much trouble.

Who spread those rumors that Black Mountain had treasures that could help one raise their realm?

When this news was spread out, wow.

To the normal people, the temptation of silver was huge.

To cultivators like them, naturally, treasures were the most important.

Suddenly, there was movement in the distance.

“Three elders from Danxia Island, please place down that blood flower.” A deep and cold voice spread out. A man dressed in a blood robe smiled.

The three elders from Danxia Island definitely didn’t know what this blood flower was. When they were prepared to enter Black Mountain, they noticed a weird looking red flower. There were saw tooths at the petals. When they picked it up, they didn’t bother much about it.

Who knew where this person appeared from and told them to place it down?

How would they agree? Although they didn’t know what it was, since the other party wanted it, then it was definitely something good. One came to Black Mountain to search for treasures. Now that they found an unknown one, even if they didn’t know what it was they wouldn’t just hand it over.

Otherwise, where would they place their face?

There was also an important problem. He was an expert of Xiedao Sect. Their Danxia Island was a proper sect, which stood on the side of justice. How could they hand the things they acquired over to the side of evil?

“Evil Demon, stop dreaming. I won’t give it to you, at most you will kill all of us. I can promise that before we die, we will destroy this thing.” Danxia Island was very fierce. He didn’t fear anything. Facing the Xiedao Sect expert, he didn’t yield at all. If he wanted to kill him, then kill, anyway he was going to destroy that thing.

Lin Fan couldn’t sleep as he peeked at what happened at the shore.

“This fellow’s aura is familiar.”

He looked at the man and thought for a moment. When he wiped out the Yunlu City division, three people said that they came from Xiedao Sect and he killed them.

This aura was very similar to that time.

Just as Lin Fan was thinking about all this, the three elders from Danxia Island were hammered down by the Xiedao Sect Expert. They coughed out blood and cried out.

Things happened too quickly.

In just that blink of an eye, the Xiedao Sect expert grabbed the blood flower and said coldly, “You self righteous people, not cultivating and coming out to search for treasure. Don’t you know what your strength is? Or are you all too…”

“Who?”

At that moment, the Xiedao Sect looked into the darkness. There was someone that spoke.

Although the voice was soft, he heard it clearly.

It was like it was saying, could he stop acting cool?
