Chapter 882 - Army of the Blood Fiend (1/2)

“Companion? Do you mean him?”

Chen Fan grabbed the Crimson shadow in one hand as he turned around and looked at the black-robed elder.

The elder was the emissary of the Blood Fiend Sect. He had hung a vile expression on his face, accentuated by the pair of triangular eyes. His name was Lie Shan, an infamous Overlord in the land of the North with unthinkable abilities. He had been defeated only because of Lord Beihan’s Sky-Swallowing Python and his carelessness.

Since Lie Shan had attained the Fiend Art of Crimson Shadow, he was practically impossible to kill. Even Zhao Juexian had given up on killing him and only sought to contain him. Once his companion reached the Lord Blood G.o.d, Zhao Juexian would have to pay the ultimate price for what he did. However, he had never thought that his companion would be captured by an unaccounted character: Chen Fan.

“Is… Is it an Illusion Dharma Array? Do you take me for a fool?” Fire burst out from Lie Shan’s eyes as he shot Chen Fan an angry glare.

“Haha.”

Chen Fan didn’t reply, instead, he turned to Lord Red Dragon.

“You must know who I am.”

By then, Lord Red Dragon was as good as dead. He collapsed on the ground lifelessly, quivering from time to time. He was already terrified when he saw Zhao Juexian, and when he saw Chen Fan, he dropped to his knees and begged for mercy.

“Please spare me, Perfected Cultivator Chen. I had no choice. The Blood Fiend Sect told me they would slaughter my entire race if I didn’t do as they said. The Red Dragons is a small race, too weak to fight against them,” Lord Red Dragon said as tears welled in his eyes.

Many onlookers watched in shock as the new Lord of the Beihan Region begged in front of an ordinary young man.

“Who is that? Is he the Lord Blood G.o.d from the Blood G.o.d Sect?”

“Impossible. The other two who got captured were also from the Blood G.o.d Sect. The white-haired elder looks like the previous Lord Beihan Zhao Juexian. I thought he died in the Two World Peak.”

“Hold on a second. I remembered now. That young man is Chen Beixuan!”

Citizens in the royal city of the Beihan Region were shocked by the revelation.

When Zhao Juexian stormed into the palace, the commotion had stirred many cultivators. Countless Connate Cultivators or Golden Core Cultivators flocked to see the action.

The area where Chen Fan was standing was suddenly shrouded by countless tendrils of Divine Will.

Many people recognized Chen Fan since they had seen him before.

“Chen Beixuan is back.”

The residents of the royal city were elated by the news.

Although most people didn’t welcome Chen Fan initially since he had humiliated the Royal Court, their opinion of him quickly improved after seeing him standing up against the foreign invaders of their realm.

“Welcome Perfected Cultivator Chen, I am the Pure Essence’s Sect Master, Xia Jinlong.”

“Welcome. I am the Family Lord of the Huang family, Huang Zhenting”

“I am Jin Bosheng, Sect Master of the Golden Crow.”

Golden Core Cultivators and Sect masters flocked toward Chen Fan as if he were their savior. The Beihan Region had been in a rut for too long, and it was high time for a powerful individual to turn the situation around and rise to power.

Most people didn’t recognize Lord Beihan Zhao Juexian until they got close to him.

Those who did were shocked.

Their shock and disbelief multiplied when they saw Zhao Juexian standing obediently behind Chen Fan. If Chen Fan could bring Zhao Juexian to heel, he could do that to anyone.

“Perfected Cultivator, you’re finally back! We missed you day and night, praying for your return.” Chu Yuanding flew closer to Chen Fan and dropped his knee before him, crying uncontrollably.

“Gather yourself. Tell me what’s going on,” Chen Fan said as he blew Chu Yuanding a few hundred meters away from him using the force of Four Righteousness.

Chu Yuanding crawled to his feet; his face paled slightly but it was still wearing a smile.

“You are with us now, we will never be afraid of the Blood Fiend Sect again. This alien sect invaded the Beihan Region and drove our elder away. I cry every day for our loss. I wish I could have saved our elders!”

“Uh? Lord Chu, I remember that you were among the first to capitulate when the Blood Fiend Sect arrived at the city gates, weren’t you?” the Pure Essence Sect Master put in with a smirk.

“That was my tactic to preserve my power to better serve our beloved Perfected Cultivator,” Chu Yuanding refuted.

“Enough.”

Chen Fan waved his hand.

Those family lords were all turn cloaks. The Chu Family Lord had kneeled before him when he slaughtered the Zhao family just as he did at the moment. He had never expected their total loyalty during the Blood Fiend Sect’s invasion.
