Chapter 362.1 (1/2)
Completely Establishing His Prestige
Lu Jiefen, the Sect Master of the Demon Sealing Sect, was currently humbly asking for Ning Fan’s leniency!
This spectacle was definitely even more heart-stirring than Ning Fan beating Lu Jiefen with his strength!
If Ning Fan defeated Lu Jiefen after having an intense fight with him, the outsiders might think that it was because Lu Jiefen was suffering from serious injuries. That would be a convincing explanation for everyone.
However, it was just too inconceivable for Lu Jiefen to make an apology as soon as he arrived. It was simply unexplainable.
While it might still be possible for Ning Fan to defeat a member of the seven venerated beings of the Internal Endless Sea who was already wounded, how could it be possible to make a mighty being like that ask for forgiveness in such a manner?
Why is Lord Venerated Demon afraid of Zhou Ming?! What happened between the two of them?!
A lot of people there wanted to know the answer. However, neither Ning Fan nor Lu Jiefen would reveal anything.
“Lu Jiefen! Let me ask you. Did you order your subordinates to establish the Alliance of Ming Assassins with the intention to kill me?”
Ning Fan’s voice was like a thunderclap blasting upon Lu Jiefen’s ears which sent a jolt across his heart.
“What?! Revered Ming is saying that Purple Gu and the others have been using the name of my Demon Sealing Sect to establish the Alliance of Ming Assassins with the intention to assassinate you?! They’re really… really… really foolish! Foolish to the extreme!”
Lu Jiefen glared at Purple Gu’s primordial spirit with his eyes blazing with anger.
He was in a grievous state when he returned to the Demon Sealing Sect and he absolutely did not know that Purple Gu and the others had done such a crazy thing during his absence in the past twenty years.
Establishing the Alliance of Ming Assassins? Killing Ning Fan with just a dozen Early and Mid Divine Transformation Realm experts? What a joke!
Ning Fan was a fierce and powerful man who had killed countless Divine Transformation Realm experts and slaughtered Tan Lang’s separated soul like pulverizing an ant. How could Lu Jiefen who had yet to recover from his injuries dare to offend him at this moment?!
Lu Jiefen’s expression became tense. If Ning Fan insists on holding Lu Jiefen responsible for this matter and kills his way to the Demon Sealing Sect in the internal sea, Lu Jiefen may not be able to come out of it unscathed even if he has means to keep his life intact and run away.
Besides, if he runs away from the Endless Sea, the wealth that he had been building for his entire lifetime in the Internal Endless Sea would be completely ruined.
“Revered Ming, please calm down! Forming the Alliance of Ming Assassins is definitely not my idea but my reckless subordinates’ instead. Heaven and earth can be the witness for this matter! It’s indeed my oversight why my subordinates would act so boldly. Revered Ming, please give me an opportunity to make up for my mistake. I’ll certainly prepare generous gifts which will surely satisfy you, Revered Ming!”
Lu Jiefen’s tone sounded like he was pleading.
He was pleading with Ning Fan to let the Demon Sealing Sect off and was begging him to believe that he had nothing to do with this matter!
For heaven’s sake, Lu Jiefen was already afraid of Ning Fan to the extreme, how would he get himself into trouble with him?!
Purple Gu was on the verge of losing his mind.
He felt that he must be out of his senses! If he was not, how would it be possible for him to witness Lord Venerated Demon asking for forgiveness from someone else?!
“Impossible! I don’t believe it! It can’t be true!”
“Our Demon Sealing Sect is one of the seven renowned forces in the Internal Endless Sea and Lord Venerated Demon is one of the seven venerated beings of the internal sea. It’s impossible for him to make an apology to you, IMPOSSIBLE!”
“Zhou Ming! You’re lying to me! You’re using illusions to fool me… I don’t believe it!”
Purple Gu seemed to be laughing and sobbing at the same time. He just could not accept this cold and harsh truth.
He could not accept that Ning Fan whom he treated as an ant would be a terrifying individual who could even make Venerated Demon bow in reverence!
Suddenly, Purple Gu recalled the words he had said before.
“Zhou Ming, you shouldn’t be arrogant! Do you think you’re the Venerated Eighth of the Internal Endless Sea?”
The Venerated Eighth of the Internal Endless Sea.
The Venerated Eighth of the Internal Endless Sea. Haha!
With this Zhou Ming’s current strength and power, how could he be just the Venerated Eighth of the Internal Endless Sea. Even though he has yet to obtain the ‘Bestowal of the Emperor’s Tomb’, he was still able to make Venerated Demon yield to him! I’m afraid his strength is ranked among the top of the Venerated Seven!
“I’ve offended such a ferocious man… I’m really stupid. STUPID!”
Looking at Purple Gu who was mentally deranged and the other two Mid Divine Transformation Realm elders, Lu Jiefen felt guilty.
They were his subordinates, but he would not dare to expect to save them from Ning Fan’s hands.
Lu Jiefen knew that Ning Fan would never pay respect to him.
This man is cruel and merciless. Once anyone tries to go against him, he will definitely kill them all.
The only thing Lu Jiefen hoped for was that Ning Fan would not hold the other members of the Demon Sealing Sect accountable.
Otherwise, the Demon Sealing Sect would be devastated if Ning Fan kills his way to the Internal Endless Sea. If that happens, Lu Jiefen would have no choice but to use his secret technique again to escape from him, like how he escaped from the Realm Beast last time.
That would be the worst case scenario…
“Revered Ming, please do give me a chance to make up for my mistake. Anyhow, I’m also a supreme being who came out from the ‘Emperor’s Tomb’ and I’ve obtained the bestowal from that ‘Lord’. There are certainly a lot of excellent treasures there and they will surely satisfy you, Revered Ming!”
