1581 Life or Death
There were all kinds of information in Chu Yunfan’s comms talisman, and all of them were about his clan being executed in the capital. There was no doubt that the Chu family itself did not have anything that could make Xiang Feiyun look askance, so there could only be one reason, and that was him.
Chu Yunfan did not know why Xiang Feiyun was targeting him. Was it because of his so-called number one title? Or was it to kill chickens to scare monkeys?
After all, if Chu Yunfan was killed, all the major forces would surely be terrified. It would be impossible for them to even have the thought of resisting.
Most of the people in the Chu family had nothing to do with Chu Yunfan, but the matriarch was someone who had done him a great favor and treated him like her own. Over the years, he had respected the matriarch as if she was his own elder.
Now, the matriarch had been brutally killed by the other party.
Thinking of this, Chu Yunfan’s eyes became bloodshot and he radiated killing intent. With his current cultivation, the killing intent he released enveloped a radius of hundreds of miles. Ye Qiushui, Cui Mingjie, and Lu Hongyuan, who stepped out of the array behind him, suddenly felt as if Mount Tai was pressing down on them. An unprecedented killing intent swept through them. They felt that if Chu Yunfan wanted to kill them, they wouldn’t even be able to resist.
At this moment, they realized that Chu Yunfan had suppressed them completely without even using half of his strength. To think that they thought they knew Chu Yunfan’s strength before this. Only now did they realize that Chu Yunfan’s strength was not only unfathomable, but also terrifying.
They didn’t know what had happened to make Chu Yunfan so angry.
Chu Yunfan slowly reigned in his aura. During this period, he had absorbed all the spirit energy in the array, and his cultivation had improved. He rushed straight to the peak of the intermediate Core Form Stage and was only one step away from the advanced Core Form Stage.
Every stage of the Core Stage was a threshold, but after crossing it, the main thing was to accumulate power and finally form the golden core in one’s body. This was the stage where one could quickly accumulate their strength. And Chu Yunfan could even feel that his strength was constantly increasing.
“I have a questions for you three. Do you know anything about Xiang Feiyun?” Chu Yunfan asked.
“Xiang Feiyun?” The three of them were stunned. They didn’t know how Chu Yunfan knew about Xiang Feiyun’s existence, but since he had asked, they didn’t dare to hesitate.
Cui Mingjie quickly answered, “Sir, Xiang Feiyun is a disciple of Central Sky Academy of Grand Xia. He’s even stronger than me.”
“Stronger than you?” Chu Yunfan glanced at Cui Mingjie.
“Yes, Xiang Feiyun is famous for being arrogant and unruly. He has always been ruthless when representing the imperial court in missions,” Cui Mingjie said.
“Ruthless? What a vicious and merciless man,” Chu Yunfan said coldly, “Since he has issued a letter of challenge, I will bury him.”
The three of them looked at each other. Just as they had expected, Xiang Feiyun had provoked Chu Yunfan. Whether it was Xiang Feiyun or Chu Yunfan, in their eyes, they were both big trouble. Their strength was far above theirs and they could not resit either of them. It was best if both sides suffered.
“I have things to take care of. You guys may leave now. Remember to gather near the capital of Great Wei in a month’s time,” Chu Yunfan said.
How could Chu Yunfan not tell that Xiang Feiyun was provoking him? He naturally wouldn’t let this go. Thinking of this, he place the hou into the Mountain River Diagram, then turned into a beam of light and disappeared.
When the three of them saw Chu Yunfan leave, they heaved a sigh of relief as if they had been pardoned. They looked at each other and saw the joy in each other’s eyes. especially Cui Mingjie. He was a Golden Core and should be a peerless existence throughout this world. They calculated the fact that they might encounter the demon Chu Yunfan. And though he was younger than them, they could not beat him in terms of strength. This made Cui Mingjie feel embarrassed.
“I don’t know how Xiang Feiyun offended Chu Yunfan, but I’m pretty sure they’ll fight to the death,” Ye Qiushui said worriedly. She could feel that Chu Yunfan’s shocking killing intent was not a joke.
“Idiot, if Chu Yunfan dies, who will undo the Yin Yang Energy Sigil he placed on us?” Cui Mingjie didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. “No matter what, we have to think of a way to break this sigil. We can’t pin our hopes on him letting us go. I don’t believe that there’s no way to break this sigil.”
The three of them immediately left the desert. Once they got out, they heard the shocking news and finally understood why Chu Yunfan’s killing intent soared and anger had attacked his heart.
To lure Chu Yunfan out, Xiang Feiyun had executed the entire Chu family. The cruelty of Xiang Feiyun’s methods made the three of them speechless. One could imagine that Chu Yunfan would definitely fight Xiang Feiyun to the death.
At this time, while everyone was looking forward to Chu Yunfan’s return, he landed in a valley near Conglong City, an important town in the south of Great Wei. A figure suddenly rushed out of the dense forest in the valley and headed toward Chu Yunfan, crying loudly.
“Brother Fan, we’re finished! The Chu family is finished! Everyone is finished!”
Chu Yunfan took a closer look. Who else could this person be but Chu Hongcai?
However, Chu Hongcai was no longer as high-spirited as he once was. He looked extremely disheveled, and it was clear that he had been severely injured in many places. He cried loudly without a care for his image.
“Brother Fan, you have to avenge us. His Highness, the Matriarch, and many elders are dead!”
