Chapter 449 - Entering Fiendish Corpse Mountain Range Again
The elders' faces paled further at Chen Fan's words.
“You're likely regretting your choices now, but there’s no medicine for regret in this world. You’ll have to pay for your sins. Our Chen Clan’s people are not that easy to mess with!
“Rest assured, soon Elder Liehuo, the Merit Elder, and even Duan Jingtian will join you in hell. I’ll kill them all, one by one!” Chen Fan said indifferently, as those people were nothing in his eyes.
Suddenly, Elder Yingwu launched an attack.
“Go to hell!”
His aura rose to the sky, as he ignited his primeval force. He wanted to take Chen Fan down while his guard was down.
His hand cut through the air, and a brilliant sword light—one like the blazing sun—flew toward Chen Fan.
“Hahahaha.” Elder Yingwu laughed maniacally and said, “Little bastard, you want to kill me? You’re not qualified!”
"Is that so?" Chen Fan's voice was frigid, sending a shiver down Elder Yingwu's spine.
His attack had landed on Chen Fan, but he emerged from it unscathed. Elder Yingwu was horrified and exclaimed in shock, “You... how is that possible?!”
Brushing himself off, Chen Fan mocked, “You couldn’t have harmed me even if you had attacked me with a Grade-3 weapon, let alone a measly hand blade. So, answer this, are you qualified to attack me?”
Elder Yingwu's world plummeted into darkness; soon, a destructive aura erupted from him—he was going to self-destruct.
Chen Fan narrowed his eyes and unleashed a palm strike.
A mass of terrifying energy rushed into Elder Yingwu; it destroyed his primeval vessel, his bones, and his tendons.
“Self-destructing in front of me? What a joke!”
Elder Yingwu looked at Chen Fan’s indifferent face. Regret and hatred filled his eyes as their light gradually faded.
Chen Fan’s attack had been so terrifying that not even a Core Formation realm expert would have survived, so apart from destroying Elder Yingwu’s primeval vessel, it even obliterated his vitality.
......
That night was a sleepless one for some cities near Watermoon City.
Chen Fan had wrought havoc upon the traitorous clans. Alone, he stormed these clans, leaving a trail of blood in his wake.
The Watermoon City itself was shaken when it was revealed that even the Lǚ Clan was also involved in this treachery.
Chen Zhengqing led countless armor-clad private troops and experts, rushing into the Lǚ Clan like wolves and tigers. They dragged out the Lǚ Clan members one by one, tied them up, and confiscated their assets amidst the cacophony of their anguished cries.
Throughout the night, fear gripped the hearts of other prestigious clans as they awaited their fate.
In the study, Chen Zhengqing listened to his subordinates’ reports one by one, overseeing the seizure of the Lǚ Clan's assets. He nodded to himself, in a great mood.
A huge crisis was resolved just like that.
Chen Fan returned that very night after dealing with the traitorous clans in the nearby cities. For him, wiping out a prestigious clan was simply too easy.
“Father, I’ve treated Grandfather’s injuries with life essence. He'll recover fully soon. I’ll be going to the Fiendish Corpse Mountain Range to cultivate, but I’ll leave a humanoid true primeval in the clan. I’ll know immediately if something happens.”
Although the clan's crisis was resolved, the threat of another attack from Duan Jingtian loomed. If he remained outside, they would assume he was protecting the clan and wouldn’t attack.
“Xiaofan, you have to be careful when you enter the depths of the Fiendish Corpse Mountain Range,” Chen Zhengqing advised.
He could no longer see through Chen Fan. The depth of Chen Fan’s cultivation surpassed Chen Zhengqing’s by countless times. So, he did not worry too much about Chen Fan’s safety.
“Don’t worry.”
Chen Fan stood up. Suddenly, a humanoid true primeval condensed and took shape in front of him. It bore an uncanny resemblance to him, mirroring his every movement flawlessly.
Although it was inferior to the merit elder’s external incarnation, it was much stronger than ordinary humanoid true primeval. It was as strong as those at the third level of the Core Formation realm.
Chen Fan had planned for everything. With his preparations complete, he soared into the sky and vanished from sight with a swift whoosh.
