Supreme Emptiness-Chapter 734 Who Else is Protecting Him
Kong Yuanba seemed to receive a royal pardon.
He quickly hid behind Huang Qilin.
Whoosh——
A long cry echoed across the sky.
Jiang Fan arrived on his sword, triggering a tsunami of astonished shouts.
Regardless of distance, disciples from various sects were stunned and drawn to the scene.
"Walking on air?"
"Is that Jiang Fan?"
"Did he break through to the Nascent Soul Realm?"
The Myriad Swords Sect disciples followed closely behind.
When Xu Qingyang saw this, his aged eyes widened on the spot.
"The lower chapter of ’Sword Control Technique’ perfected—Sword Flight!!!"
"Damn!"
"That brat actually mastered it!"
Even someone as composed as Xu Qingyang couldn’t hold back from cursing.
He rolled up his sleeves and prepared to confront Jiang Fan:
"That bastard said earlier that he hadn’t mastered it!"
"He actually lied to me? Unacceptable!"
The Supreme Elder Zhou Qidan beside him quickly pulled him back.
She whispered urgently, "Are you insane?"
"Going to provoke him now?"
"Be careful, or he might just strike you down too!"
Huh?
Xu Qingyang paused and, upon questioning further, learned of the matter concerning Li Qingfeng.
A chill spread across his face: "That Giant Sect!"
"They fall short on killing demons."
"But they excel at killing their own—ruthless and cold-blooded!"
"That old fox Huang Qilin, too, has discarded all pretense."
"Kong Yuanba—such a man, and he dares to protect him?"
Zhou Qidan mirrored his disdain: "It’s just bullying the Green Cloud Sect for being foundationally weak, isn’t it?"
"If it were our Myriad Swords Sect or the Supreme Sect troubling Kong Yuanba, let’s see if Huang Qilin would dare meddle."
Huang Qilin, outwardly acting as though shielding others,
was essentially looking down on the Green Cloud Sect.
Jiang Fan approached unhurriedly.
Seeing Huang Qilin protecting Kong Yuanba behind him,
he showed no surprise at all.
Even the vilest man can have a few loyal friends.
Moreover, Kong Yuanba is the sect leader of an entire faction.
Allowing Kong Yuanba to show up was just Jiang Fan testing who his life-and-death allies were.
Then, they could all be dealt with together.
To prevent them seeking revenge against the Green Cloud Sect in secret after Kong Yuanba was dealt with at the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion.
"Young man, just because the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion recruited you,
you think you’ve become something extraordinary?"
Huang Qilin preemptively rebuked:
"Still wet behind the ears, yet you chase after your elders in bloodlust."
"Did your Green Cloud Sect elders fail to teach you respect?"
Jiang Fan hovered in mid-air with his arms folded.
He gazed down at Huang Qilin with distant indifference.
"Of course, they taught me."
"But they didn’t teach me to respect beasts."
"For someone of your age, how did you end up mingling with animals?"
Huang Qilin exploded with rage: "Young scoundrel! Watch your tongue!"
"Chasing down an injured Nine-Sect Master already goes against the moral fabric of the world!"
"Immediately call forth your seniors. I’ll question what kind of teachings they’ve given you!"
Jiang Fan’s expression was devoid of emotion.
He raised his sword to point directly at Huang Qilin.
"I don’t care what position you hold in the True Thunder Sect."
"Right now, here’s the truth."
"Kong Yuanba killed Elder Li Qingfeng of my sect."
"I must kill him to avenge Elder Li."
"If you obstruct me, you’ll be my enemy, the Green Cloud Sect’s enemy."
"You have three breaths to decide."
"Step aside, or die with him!"
Huang Qilin laughed furiously!
He never expected that as a Supreme Elder, he’d be publicly threatened by a mere junior!
"Then I’ll tell you this!"
"I, Huang, have despised arrogant and smug juniors all my life!"
"Today, I’ll protect Sect Master Kong. What can you possibly do to my True Thunder Sect?"
Lei Zhenhai frowned slightly.
Huang Qilin privately shielding Kong Yuanba was something Lei Zhenhai could tolerate.
He knew a few things about their relationship.
But why drag the True Thunder Sect into this?
Lei Zhenhai said coldly: "Supreme Elder Huang."
"This is a matter between the Green Cloud Sect and Giant Sect. What are you intervening for?"
"Don’t bring unnecessary trouble upon the True Thunder Sect."
Huang Qilin, relying on his seniority, sneered: "Sect Master, what kind of talk is this?"
"Aiding the oppressed is a principle for True Thunder Sect disciples!"
"Why call it courting trouble when I do so?"
Lei Zhenhai let out an enraged laugh.
This old coot was scared Jiang Fan would retaliate, and the Green Cloud Sect would collectively seek vengeance on him.
So he insisted on implicating the True Thunder Sect.
Hearing Jiang Fan begin the countdown.
"Three!"
"Two!"
Lei Zhenhai immediately stated, "Jiang Fan, this is Huang Qilin’s personal decision."
"It has nothing to do with the True Thunder Sect."
"He doesn’t represent the True Thunder Sect."
Jiang Fan glanced toward him, saying: "Then killing him won’t be an issue?"
Lei Zhenhai was taken aback.
Jiang Fan could kill Huang Qilin?
Huang Qilin was a Supreme Elder at the Ninth Layer of Core Formation!
After a moment of thought, Lei Zhenhai nodded: "If he, acting in a personal capacity, meddles in the affairs of your two sects,"
"then if he dies, it’s his own fault."
"It won’t affect the relationship between the True Thunder Sect and Green Cloud Sect."
Though Lei Zhenhai often acted domineeringly,
he was still discerning when it came to critical matters.
Someone like Huang Qilin, who refused to listen and insisted on intervening in sect disputes,
was naturally someone Lei Zhenhai distanced himself from.
To avoid bringing misfortune upon the True Thunder Sect.
Huang Qilin grew agitated: "Lei Zhenhai! You call yourself Sect Master!"
"You lack even an ounce of resolve!"
Lei Zhenhai didn’t bother with him, turning away: "True Thunder Sect, follow me!"
The True Thunder Sect’s Supreme Elders, elders, and disciples decisively walked away.
No one was stupid.
It was clear Huang Qilin was trying to drag the True Thunder Sect into sect disputes.
If anything happened, everyone would face the fallout.
A selfish old man like him—better to stay far away.
"You all…" Huang Qilin seethed.
At this moment.
Jiang Fan coldly finished counting: "One."
"It seems you’ve decided to shield Kong Yuanba to the death."
Huang Qilin began to regret.
How could he face the entire Green Cloud Sect alone?
Fortunately, only Jiang Fan was here now.
Just a little punishment, nothing serious.
"Brat, you’re not qualified to speak to me like this."
"Get lost now, or I won’t hesitate…" freёnovelkiss.com
Shhk——
A Soul Nail pierced directly into his head.
"Ah!" He clutched his head and screamed in pain.
Before he could react,
a cold blade swept across his neck.
In the next moment, his view was upside down.
Finally, it stopped spinning.
When he saw his headless body lying on the ground, he vaguely understood something.
He… was dead?
And this was his very last thought.
A deathly silence fell over the crowd.
Even those from the True Thunder Sect who hadn’t gone far turned to witness this shocking scene!
In the blink of an eye.
A Supreme Elder was slain?
A looming chill descended upon hearts everywhere.
Jiang Fan possessed the terrifying ability to kill a Supreme Elder!
Countless horrified gazes churned with disbelief.
Jiang Fan paid them no mind, flicking the blood off the Purple Sword.
He kicked aside the headless corpse.
Revealing Kong Yuanba hiding behind it.
"Sect Master Kong, is there anyone left to protect you?"
"Hurry up and seek aid."
Kong Yuanba’s pupils contracted sharply.
Scanning the area, he spotted the nearby Myriad Swords Sect and stumbled toward one of the female elders.
"Xue Ru, help me!"
The Myriad Swords Sect’s Ninth Elder Pan Xueru, being romantically involved with Kong Yuanba,
couldn’t help but feel heartache seeing her beloved in such a wretched state.
She looked pleadingly at the Myriad Swords Sect Master: "Sect Master…"
Before she could finish speaking,
Xu Qingyang coldly interrupted:
"If you dare plead for mercy, leave the Myriad Swords Sect immediately!"
