Chapter 319 - Smashed to Death with One Palm
“Hahahaha.” Qi Yun burst out in laughter when Chen Fan finished his sentence.
He looked at Chen Fan like he was looking at a corpse. He said morosely, “Brat, you seem blissfully unaware of the danger you are in.”
“I'm onto you. You're hiding your real power level, aren't you? You are at the ninth level, right?
“I'll give you that; it's impressive. That strength was enough to deal with the two groups, but open your eyes wide and take a good look. Meng Chong and I are also at the ninth level, and we’re even a cut above the rest. How do you expect to stand a chance against us teaming up? Hiding your power level won't help you!"
“That’s right, kid. You should have realized the situation you’re in by now.” Meng Chong nodded.
Qi Yun continued, “The disciples of our sects were the first to enter this palace, yet you dare dream of stealing from us. This is no different from an act of suicide. The word 'death' seems like it was made just for people like you!
"Here's the deal: I can offer you a quick and painless death. Hand over the treasures and your storage ring, then take your own life. That way, you can avoid any unnecessary pain and torture. If not, you won't even have the chance to regret it once we start."
Qi Yun crossed his arms and looked at Chen Fan with a cold smile.
Chen Fan, however, didn't show any signs of fear or concern. He calmly stood up, his joints cracking like popping beans.
“You probably thought you could bring me down if you joined hands. Honestly, you're way off base with that thought.” Chen Fan’s indifferent gaze fell on Qi Yun and Meng Chong.
These two were indeed at the ninth level, their auras refined from considerable experience, not newcomers to this power level by any stretch.
“I’ll also tell you the truth. Them calling you two here is nothing more than sending you to your deaths.” This statement visibly shook Qi Yun and Meng Chong, their faces clouding over with shock and anger.
Their expressions became very ugly.
“Hoho, Meng Chong, this kid still doesn't understand the gravity of his situation. He actually dares to look down on us. How do you think we should deal with him?” Qi Yun laughed coldly.
Chen Fan's blunt arrogance and his outright dismissal of them were infuriating. Did he think he was like those monsters in the top ten of the Influential Figures Leaderboard?
Meng Chong, a martial artist who favored brute strength, stretched his neck, the sound of cracking joints filling the air. With a menacing grin, he said, “I’ll crush all his bones one by one and let him have a taste of unbearable pain!”
“Haha, alright, then I’ll take my time slicing his flesh. Don’t worry. I’ll not let him die. You can then crush his bones. How about it?”
Qi Yun's expression and words were chilling, sending a shiver down the spine of anyone who heard them.
“Alright, I’ll trust you!” Meng Chong nodded.
With a hint of impatience on his face, Chen Fan said, “You talk too much. Let me send you on your way!”
Rumble!
The air itself seemed to rupture under the onslaught of their combined powers.
“Annihilate!”
Chen Fan remained indifferent. The Northern Star Reaper Hand pressed down at once.
Boom, boom, boom...
The different sources of primeval force collided and exploded in the air simultaneously, akin to thousands of fireworks igniting.
The palace trembled under the relentless barrage, its structure groaning and cracking.
Whoosh.
A fearsome storm of qi erupted, its rampage reducing everything in its path to rubble. Even parts of the rooms collapsed. The debris flew everywhere, producing whooshing noises.
Boom ka!
Chen Fan didn’t hold back at all with this attack. He wanted to use Qi Yun and Meng Chong’s groups to gauge the full extent of the Northern Star Reaper Hand's capabilities.
However, Qi Yun, Meng Chong, and the others’ combined attacks shattered under the Northern Star Reaper Hand’s crushing might.
“Die!” Chen Fan roared. He rose into the air at once, his primeval force surged, rolling and circulating, as he sent out another palm strike pressing down at them.
With a rumble, the Northern Star Reaper Hand smashed everything ahead.
Boom!
The entire palace shook violently with a rumble. Half of it collapsed from the shock and turned into ruins.
Chen Fan landed on the floor, panting heavily for air. It truly deserved to be an earth tier martial skill. Despite his robust primeval force, executing the martial skill took a lot out of him.
He looked at the dusty area. With a wave of his hand, a strong wind rolled out, sweeping the dust away and revealing the scene underneath.
A huge, three-fingered claw mark was on the ground.
In the middle of it was a pool of blood. Qi Yun, Meng Chong, and the others were all smashed to bits from that one palm strike. They were beyond dead.
