Chapter 921 - Vengeful (2/2)

w.a.n.g Xuanfeng trailed behind his brother, shouting, “Brother, brother! Wait for me!” They were followed by all the other w.a.n.g Family members. Their scrambling and clambering was an ironic contrast to their previous dramatic and pompous entrance.

The sight unnerved many cultivators from the Beihuang Region. They looked to Chen Fan with more reverence and respect in their eyes.

Chen Beixuan had scared away w.a.n.g Xuanlong from the w.a.n.g Family!

Even the slowest cultivator would have figured that the power dynamics in the Beihuang Region were about to s.h.i.+ft.

“Whoos.h.!.+”

Chen Fan descented and hovered right above Linjiang City.

Although he had tried to move the battle as far from the city as possible, he had destroyed the Ancient Deity Plateau and changed the course of the river. In the half-ruined city, many cultivators looked up at him expectantly.

For a while, no one uttered a word.

“Senior Chen, you kick a**es!”

Yun Yier flew up to Chen Fan and grabbed hold of his arm, hugging it tightly.

“Master.” Zhao Juexian also followed suit.

“Senior Chen, Perfected Cultivator Chen…” Lin Wuhua and Mu Hongti also went over and bowed to Chen Fan. Mu Hongti’s face bloomed like a flower; her slender body swayed slightly as she said, “Congratulations Senior Chen. I’m afraid that you will become famous in the Beihuang Region.”

“Not only in the Beihuang region. Lichen, Long Hua and Gufen were all members of the longevity Roll. Elixir Monarch Chen’s victory would make him a member on the list as well. I wager that only the top warriors on the Longevity Roll could have matched Elixir Monarch’s heroic achievement. I bet his ranking will be higher than Luo Changshen,” Wu Baisu chimed in.

There was a mix of complicated emotions on her face: shock, guilt, and something warm and fuzzy.

Wu Baisu’s shock and disbelief was shared by nearly all the cultivators who had seen the fight.

“I thought he only was an Elixir Monarch, how come he’s such a fearsome warrior?”

Many people were perplexed by the development.

Both cultivation and alchemy were time consuming and required a great measure of devotion. Although some Heavenly Alchemists had been able to attain a Nascent Soul level in their cultivation, their power was a far cry from that of a Heavenly Lord who was trained for battle.

However, Chen Fan was not only able to do both, but did so exceptionally well. He had proven his incredible might by defeating the four elites. It was as if a cook had defeated a black belt Taekwondo master in a compet.i.tion.

“The Longevity Roll means nothing to me.”

Chen Fan shook his head and landed his gaze on the crowd.

Chen Fan had killed Hu Xiao and Feng Yuqiu, but he didn’t forget their families’ crimes. Lichen and the other elites were simply in the wrong place at the wrong time. The real culprit deserving of punishment was the Hu family and the Feng Family.

However, seeing that the two families had only sent their younger generations to the gathering, he decided to spare them for the moment and focus his efforts on their elders back at their homes.

Chen Fan’s icy gaze sent an icy chill down the spines of the Hu family members. Perfected Cultivator Xuannu piled smiles onto his face and asked, “Elixir Monarch Chen, what do you mean?”

Half an hour before, no one thought highly of Chen Beixuan. Both Perfected Cultivator Xuannu and the Sanshan Sect Master were dominant forces in the Beihuang Region, an Elixir Lord simply couldn’t compare.

“So, you are Perfected Cultivator Xuannu? What were you mumbling about me while I was fighting?”

Chen Fan crooked his head slightly and grinned.

“I would never. My loyalty to you is as vast as the northern sea, and will flow through me for fifty thousand years.” Perfected Cultivator Xuannu shook his head.

He ranked among the top fifty of all the cultivators in the Beihuang Region, and was a worthy opponent for Zhao Juexian. However, he would not dare to challenge Chen Fan after watching him kill powerful cultivators with great ease.

“I see. But why don’t I think it’s the same case when it comes to your disciple standing behind you… What is his name? Fang Yan? I don’t think he likes me.”

Chen Fan looked past Perfected Cultivator Xuannu.

Fang Yan had been shaking even before Chen Fan named him. After hearing his name, he nearly fell to the ground in fear. Fang Yan had been injured by Zhao Juexian earlier, but physical injuries were much easier to heal than psychological wounds.

Before the fight, Fang Yan had been planning his revenge, however, after the fight, his only wish was that Chen Fan would forget that he ever existed.

“You imbecile! How dare you offend Elixir Monarch’s companion? I will not let this go unpunished. After we return home, I will break his leg and ground him for a hundred years,” Perfected Cultivator Xuannu said angrily.

“Very well,” Chen Fan nodded and then said, “A hundred year might not be enough, how about a thousand years?”

Perfected Cultivator Xuannu paused for a second and then agreed, “As you wish.”

Fang Yan suddenly collapsed to the ground. He would be able to live just over a thousand years at the most, so he had practically been grounded for life. Fang Yan also knew that his master did not have the b.a.l.l.s to lie to Chen Beixuan. As long as Chen Beixuan was still alive, he would be grounded for the rest of his life.

The thought of being confined in one place for his entire life made Fang Yan lose all hope and even the will to live.

Many people exclaimed in their minds, “Chen Beixuan is vengeful. Fang Yan had offended him verbally, and for that he’ll be thrown into confinement for a thousand years. It’s worse than killing him.”

After that, The Sanshan Sect, the Huang family and the An Family stepped forward and stated that they would punish their insolent disciples.

In the end, Chen Fan walked over to Situ Cheng.

“Brother Situ, long time no see. I bet you didn’t expect me to live through this.”

Situ Cheng stood in silence with a dark face.
