Super War God in the City -
Chapter 734 - 734: No Nonsense, Just Do It!
Ling Fan's mouth twitched, he thought this guy would teach a lesson through a punch, but he didn't expect to kill him with one blow.
Seeing this, Lan Zihan immediately inhaled sharply, she originally wanted to shout to stop this little brother, but then she thought, these guys had indeed gone too far, teaching them a lesson was not unjustifiable!
However, like Ling Fan, she hadn't expected this little guy to be so irritable that he would kill with every strike.
The crowd at the Martial Arts Arena stared at the corpse that fell down with eyes wide open in death, all stunned on the spot.
The Witch Disciple's cultivation was not high, only at the Grandmaster Realm, how could he withstand a punch from Feng Xiaobai?
This was because Feng Xiaobai hadn't truly begun to cultivate the Technique that Ling Fan had taught him, relying merely on his physical strength, otherwise, it wouldn't just be this level of destruction.
Currently, he still needed to adapt to this new body, so Ling Fan wasn't forcing him.
"Listen well, all of you keep your mouths clean, otherwise, my temper will not tolerate your faults!" Feng Xiaobai's naive gaze swept over the audience, he huffed coldly, and walked towards Ling Fan.
"Boss, those guys were so annoying just now, I couldn't control myself and killed one, that's not a problem, right?" Feng Xiaobai arrived in front of Ling Fan, looking innocent.
At these words, Ling Fan couldn't help but smile wryly, "You should ask your Sister Lan about this!"
Feng Xiaobai blinked his dark, limpid eyes, and scratching his head, he turned to Lan Zihan, "Sister Lan, just now those guys called me a 'bastard child' of you and the boss, it infuriated me!"
Lan Zihan was initially going to scold Feng Xiaobai, but upon hearing this, she immediately became angry, her pretty face frosty.
She immediately complimented Feng Xiaobai, "It's done, so be it. Lawlessness has its limits, how dare they slander even the Saintess, they're seeking rebellion!"
While Lan Zihan spoke, she felt somewhat sad inside, which also indirectly indicated how severe the problems within the Witchcraft Sect currently were.
Despite being the celebrated Saintess of the Grand Hall of the Witchcraft Sect, even the disciples of the sect dared to talk behind her back and fabricate rumors.
Nowadays, the credibility of the main peak lineage was increasingly weakening.
"Control your people, or next time, you will face the scout's inquiry!" Lan Zihan said coldly, turning away with Ling Fan to leave.
At this moment, Chu Ling and Zhai Hu, two Witch Generals, also came to their senses.
Watching the trio about to leave, their faces suddenly darkened.
"Saintess, you brought an outsider and inexplicably killed someone from our Liangqiang Peak, shouldn't you give us an explanation?" Chu Ling said gravely.
Although Lan Zihan was the Saintess of the Witchcraft Sect, she did not have much credibility within the sect.
This situation had its origins in the long-standing grievances between the Witchcraft Sect and the Eight Major Sects.
Decades ago, the Witchcraft Sect joined later than the Eight Major Sects. At that time, the Witchcraft Sect was at its peak, a formidable force, and once single-handedly contested against the eight sects, deeply feared by them.
Meanwhile, because of the Witchcraft Gu Art practiced by them, the sect was disdained by the Eight Major Sects, who prided themselves as orthodox sects, labeling it as a cult of demons!
Later, when the Witchcraft Sect wanted to secure a spot in the exploration of Lost Valley, the Eight Major Sects disagreed, and a great battle erupted.
In the end, both the Senior Witch Master and the Junior Witch Master were injured, among them, the Senior Witch Master was gravely hurt and passed away soon after.
Before his death, the Senior Witch Master personally installed the Junior Witch Master in power, who was Lan Zihan's father.
Among the Twelve Peaks, many were contemporaries of the Senior Witch Master, significant in merit, and were not very receptive of the newly appointed Junior Witch Master.
However, with the backing of several important lineages, the trend had been set, and despite some dissent, it couldn't stir up much trouble.
Additionally, Lan Zihan's father, Lan Xingyuan, was exceptionally talented and soon stepped into the Half-step Divine Realm, which quelled many opposing voices and stabilized the situation.
According to Lan Xingyuan's talent, entering the Divine Realm was expected soon, but unfortunately, due to the injuries he sustained those years ago, which left lingering issues, his cultivation stagnated, and for many years, he could not advance further.
Not only that but lately as his condition worsened, there were even signs of his cultivation regressing.
As time passed, those formerly opposed lineages noticed these clues.
Lan Xingyuan had always been unable to step into the God Realm, and many suspected there might be a problem, as his injury from back then was well known.
However, the various factions did not dare to directly provoke him and started testing Lan Xingyuan's authority time after time.
In the end, they discovered that besides minor punishments, Lan Xingyuan did not resort to harsh measures or retort with excessive force against the provocations from various peak masters.
This deepened the doubts in everyone's hearts, to the extent that they were now starting to become agitated; under constant provocation, the authority of the main peak lineage gradually faded.
Lan Zihan, witnessing this, felt anxious in her heart. Lan Xingyuan couldn't fully exert himself; otherwise, once his hidden illness burst forth, the power of the main peak lineage would crumble instantly.
The current situation in the Witchcraft Sect had subtly divided into three factions.
The faction led by Di Jiang Peak supporting the Sect Hierarch, another group led by Zhu Rong Peak aimed at seizing power, and finally, a neutral faction led by Tianwu Peak.
In order to enhance her power quickly and relieve her father of distress, she resorted to the risky action of secretly sneaking into the Lost Valley to find opportunities.
Had it not been for later encountering Ling Fan, the consequences would have been unimaginable.
"Hmm? Do you want me to give an explanation? Insurrection deserves death -- is that sufficient?" Lan Zihan said coldly.
Upon hearing this, Chu Ling was suddenly taken aback. If it really came down to it, he had no justification.
However, he was not sure if the discussions here had really been heard by these three people.
At least he hadn't heard that "illegitimate child" comment.
Plainly speaking, those slanderous remarks about the Witchcraft Sect's Saintess were said right to their faces; nobody would foolishly shout them out loud.
They were whispered into ears, and only a few people nearby could really hear them clearly.
Chu Ling was a bit puzzled; how could they have heard from so far away?
He thought to himself that it was all just an excuse. Establishing authority was the real intent. It seemed that the Saintess Miss had called for reinforcements from outside. This comeback was a show of force!
"Miss, to frame charges against someone, any excuse will do. We didn't hear anything, so why did only you hear it?
I will report this matter to the higher-ups. Whether it is true or false, if Miss personally punishes, then let it be.
But an outsider kid, who has no right to lay hands on our people of the Witchcraft Sect, killing our members means being an enemy of the entire Witchcraft Sect!
I hope Miss does not bend the law for personal gain and hands over this murderous offender who provoked our sect!" Chu Ling said sternly.
Although he was merely a protector at Liangqiang Peak, he had an obligation to uphold the dignity of his peak.
If this matter reached the ears of the Junior Peak Master, perhaps he could even be promoted and valued more!
Lan Zihan, hearing this, her expression turned icy cold. Ling Fan and Feng Xiaobai were her life-saving benefactors, and she would not allow them to be threatened or harmed here.
Ling Fan saw this and frowned. The problems within the Witchcraft Sect seemed far more severe than he had anticipated!
"Report as you will, if your Liangqiang Peak has issues, just see me!" Lan Zihan snorted coldly.
Feng Xiaobai clenched her little fists; the previous insults had made her sister declare it deserved death.
Now they dare to be so unreasonable towards Sister Lan. By all accounts, they deserved death!
She glanced at Ling Fan and realized that the boss was unresponsive. She immediately understood in her heart; she and Ling Fan were bound by a Divine Soul master-servant contract.
Thus, she could also feel the anger in Ling Fan's heart.
Without another word, her figure flashed towards Chu Ling, showing her staunch principle of action with no unnecessary words; it was time to fight!
