Chapter 959 - Dominate the Battle (2/2)
Chen Fan turned and looked at the remaining six Heavenly Talents.
The six of them, including Xiao Hong, were shaken to the core. Pride, reputation and even life, they had lost everything. The catastrophic defeat might even have a negative impact on their cultivation.
However, Chen Fan had robbed them of all hope and confidence.
“Fine. Elixir Monarch Chen is indeed more powerful than us. We surrender.”
In the end, Xiao Hong and the others lowered their heads, trying to swallow the bitter defeat.
When Chen Fan finally returned to the Divine Stage, everyone looked at him with a newfound insight about his power.
Moments before, they only knew Chen Fan as the Elixir Monarch, but at the moment they saw him as the person who defeated nine Heavenly Talents. A worthy opponent, if not a major threat to Jun Aochen and Gu Xiaoyi.
“It’s unthinkable! He has earned himself a spot in the top three list of the Longevity Roll!” a senior cultivator exclaimed.
The young generation cultivators looked at Chen Fan with shock and disbelief.
They were mesmerized by Chen Fan’s otherworly movement, unforgiving strength and ruthless demeanor.
“He really lives up to the reputation of being an Elixir Monarch.”
“Bravo!”
Wang Xuanlong lifted his cup and sent its content down his throat.
Many other cultivators from the Beihuang Region were exhilarated by the development. Despite Chen Fan having caused significant turmoil in the Beihuang Region, they rooted for him deep down.
“Brother.”
Xiao Mang arrived with a whiff of fragrance. She threw herself into Chen Fan’s arms.
An attractive girl in his arms and his enemy under his boots, Chen Fan looked as glorious as ever. Many people wagered that only Chen Fan was worthy of the attention of the True Dragon Goddess.
Meanwhile, Wu Shan, Zhou Kun and Li Dani were disheartened.
The disciple of the Red Flame Heavenly Region pulled a dark face as he lamented the death of his brother and his inability to fight back.
“One day, I will make him pay,” Wu Shan said.
However, even he didn’t believe that would ever happen.
Chen Fan had defeated many Heavenly Talents in a fair fight. No one could blame him for the death of his opponents. Even the Sect Master of the Ghost Underworld Sect had to swallow his anger in silence. Plus, even if he challenged Chen Fan right then, he knew he wouldn’t survive.
Meanwhile, Hua Nonyin and Sisi eagerly gave Chen Fan infatuated stares.
Sisi was floored. She had thought that Xiao Mang’s brother was a selfish slob, arrogant and lazy. However, he had not only turned out to be the Elixir Monarch, but he also brought down many Heavenly Talents. He even earned Jun Aochen’s respect.
“So that’s why you acted the way you do. You are powerful enough to be ranked on the of the Longevity Roll’s top three.”
Hua Nonyin heaved a sigh.
She had been convinced that Chen Fan was an arrogant fool. However, she was captivated by Chen Fan’s power. Meanwhile, the other female cultivators from the Violet Moon Peak were considering Chen Fan their idol.
“Phew!”
Chen Fan returned to the stage while surrounded by elders of various sects.
Despite himself, Elder Jueyan squeezed out a smile on his face and said, “Elixir Monarch Chen is indeed powerful, almost too powerful.”
“It was a fair fight. Why? Do you think I overreacted? Maybe we can have a round as well. I promise I’ll only use one hand.”
Chen Fan gave him a sidelong glance and a crooked grin.
His reply drained life and color out of the elder’s face. He hurried to wave his hand.
Although he was the elder of the Reincarnation Sect, a thousand year old curmudgeon, he wasn’t a match against Chen Fan.
The exchange sent a chill down everyone’s spines.
In the end, Elder Yuelon stepped in and begged Chen Fan to let the matter slide. Meanwhile, concern flashed across Grand Elder Lin Shan’s face, but it didn’t stay there.
It wasn’t long before the other sect masters received some kind of message which brightened their mood quite a bit. Some of them looked to the entrance from time to time expectantly.
Everyone sat down and the drinking continued.
Two hours later, clouds started to gather above the Xuantian Mountain. However, Shenxi was still nowhere to be seen. Someone asked, “Grand Elder. What is Shenxi waiting for?”
Lin Shan’s face softened a little and answered with a smile, “She’s waiting for a guest. He will aid her in the tribulation.”
“Oh? Which friend?”
Everyone was perplexed.
Who would be powerful enough to aid through a Golden Core’s Tribulation? Even as everyone pondered on, Chen Fan seemed to have realized something.
“Haha, he has arrived.”
Lin Shan suddenly rose to his feet.
A disciple announced the arrival of a guest.
“The first Heavenly General of the Alchemy King, and the heir of the Medicine God has arrived.”
“The First Heavenly General of the Alchemy King and the heir of the Medicine God?”
A swell of surprised murmurs rose from the crowd. Even Jun Aochen was shocked by the announcement.
