Chapter 767: Lin Fan... Is He Dead? (6th Update)
Due to the self-destruction of the Ninth Elder, the ship Lin Fan was on burst open completely and was utterly destroyed.
However.
Fortunately, the cultivators on the ship were well-prepared, with nearly all of the hundreds of thousands rushing to the safe waters!
Yet, even so, countless cultivators were left dizzy and disoriented by the shock, falling from the sky and collapsing onto the sea surface, passing out on the spot!
After all.
This was the self-destruction of a Sixth Rank Saint Emperor, not that of an ordinary person; the terrifying energy was comparable to the combined explosion of dozens of nuclear weapons, so terrifying!
Mu Mengrui stood atop the void, eyes fixed on the mushroom cloud ahead, with deep shock flickering in her beautiful eyes!
"Lin Fan... Did he die?" Mu Mengrui mumbled to herself.
"Hahaha! He's dead, definitely dead. If he survived this, it would be an outrage to the heavens! The self-destruction of a Sixth Rank Saint Emperor, what is this concept? Even a Daluo Immortal would die from this, right? Hahaha! What a fool Lin Fan is, of all people to provoke, he chose to mess with Wangu Sect. Isn't this seeking death? Hahaha!" Yuan Hong laughed loudly, ecstatic.
Finally, the man he resented was dead.
"Shut up!"
Mu Mengrui said angrily, not knowing why, but feeling a surge of anger within her whenever Yuan Hong spoke of Lin Fan.
"Yes…" Yuan Hong's mouth curled up in a cold smile, but he did not dare to retort against Mu Mengrui.
But just at that moment.
Suddenly.
A cry of surprise came from the crowd: "Look! Who is that?"
Everyone followed the direction pointed by the speaker and saw a body slowly drifting over from afar.
The man's body was completely mangled, his blood dyeing the surrounding sea red!
"That is... that young man!"
Someone recognized Lin Fan; the 'corpse' was indeed his.
"Wait... there's still a breath of life; he's not dead..."
Some people were astonished to find that Lin Fan was not dead; this wasn't a corpse, but a gravely injured person on the brink of death.
"My heavens!"
"He's actually not dead! Holy cow! This is defying the heavens! After fighting against five Saint Emperors and forcing one Sixth Rank Saint Emperor to self-destruct, he's still alive!"
"No way, no way, no way!"
"He isn't dead!"
"Although he's not dead, he's seriously injured. He's in this state; he's probably a cripple now!"
...
Above the sea, hundreds of thousands stood in the air, looking down at the severely injured Lin Fan soaking in the sea water, engaging in heated discussion.
And at this moment.
"Damn it, you're not dead? I'll send you on your way!"
Seeing this scene, Yuan Hong's eyes twitched viciously. He dove toward Lin Fan in the sea, ready to kill him.
"Stop!"
Mu Mengrui's brow furrowed as she rushed forward, blocking Lin Fan with her body and shouted coldly: "Yuan Hong, what are you doing? Get lost!"
"Young Palace Master, this man killed an Elder of Wangu Sect, killing him now would win us favor with Wangu Sect!" Yuan Hong explained.
"Shut up!!! Who told you Lin Fan killed an Elder of Wangu Sect? Do you have any evidence? Would Wangu Sect really launch a night raid on Lin Fan? Wangu Sect would never stoop so low!" Mu Mengrui rebuked sharply.
"What... but..."
Yuan Hong was speechless, unable to rebut; Mu Mengrui was right, the five Saint Emperors who attacked Lin Fan at night never admitted they were from Wangu Sect.
Just then, the people from Wangu Sect flew over with gloomy faces, hovering in the sky, looking down at the seriously injured Lin Fan!
"Young Palace Master, please hand this person over to our Wangu Sect!"
A middle-aged man spoke, his eyes red and glaring venomously at Lin Fan who was floating on the sea surface, as if flames could shoot out of his eyes!
"What does Wangu Sect want with Lin Fan?" Mu Mengrui frowned and asked.
"You! Young Palace Master knows perfectly well, yet you ask here?" the middle-aged man glared at Mu Mengrui.
Mu Mengrui laughed and shook her head, saying: "What does 'knows perfectly well' mean? I really don't understand. Although Lin Fan killed your Wangu Sect's Saint Heir, Xing Jian made a pact with Lin Fan before his death that regardless of life or death, it should not involve Wangu Sect. As for last night's battle, everyone heard it clearly; those five Saint Emperors denied coming from Wangu Sect, meaning they are not your people!"
"Are you saying... those five Saint Emperors are all from Wangu Sect? Didn't Wangu Sect say they wouldn't trouble Lin Fan? Yet you sneakily made a move in the middle of the night?"
After finishing, Mu Mengrui looked at the people from Wangu Sect with shock!
As if.
It was the first time she had heard about this!
"You!"
The complexion of Wangu Sect's people turned pitch-black in an instant; there were several hundred thousand people present, all hovering above the sea surface.
If Wangu Sect admitted that the five Saint Emperors who attacked Lin Fan last night were their people, then Wangu Sect would utterly lose face, especially since Xing Jian had promised that even if he died, Wangu Sect wouldn't trouble Lin Fan!
And during the day, a group of Elders from Wangu Sect also declared they would not bother Lin Fan.
But then.
At night, five Elders of Wangu Sect at the Saint Emperor Realm attempted to assassinate Lin Fan?
Even more ludicrous was that all five Saint Emperors died at the hands of Lin Fan!
There was even a Sixth Rank Saint Emperor who chose to self-destruct!
If Wangu Sect admitted to this matter, how could they have any dignity left?
So.
Wangu Sect could only swallow this silent loss!
"Hehe, Young Palace Master is joking. Those five Saint Emperors are not from our Wangu Sect; we don't know them!" The middle-aged man forced out a smile, his heart bleeding.
"Well then, if that's the case, why does Wangu Sect need Lin Fan? Lin Fan is my friend, and he is now severely injured. Our Bodhi Palace has decided to take Lin Fan back for treatment!" Mu Mengrui stated calmly.
"What?"
The people from Wangu Sect were stunned, and so were the other Cultivators present, who were all greatly surprised.
"Young Palace Master, what... what are you doing? To take a disabled person back for treatment, doing so, aren't you offending Wangu Sect? Young Palace Master, please reconsider! Just let him die, he's just a cripple now, you..." Yuan Hong was filled with shock and anger; he had never expected Mu Mengrui to make such a decision.
"Shut your mouth! Yuan Hong, who gave you the right to speak here?" Mu Mengrui said with disgust.
"Yes, yes!"
Yuan Hong quickly nodded, but the corner of his eye glared furiously at Lin Fan, cursing why this kid wouldn't just die! Damn it, why not just die!
Following that.
Before everyone present, Mu Mengrui gave the order to fish Lin Fan out of the sea.
Meanwhile.
Lin Fan's Consciousness was communicating with Emperor Jade!
"Little Fan Fan, it seems this girl is quite good to you! She has saved your life. Otherwise, if the people from Wangu Sect made a move on you, you might not have been so fortunate!" Emperor Jade transmitted with a chuckle.
"Yes, I owe her a favor! But this time, Wangu Sect probably won't let me off easily. I've killed their Saint Heir and five Elders; this enmity is too deep!" Lin Fan nodded to himself silently.
