NOVEL NEXT Chapter 25: Killing in Person
This middle-aged man looks very similar to Li Ke.
Lu Fan took a glance and guessed the identity of this guy, the current head of the Li family.
Li Tianxiong!
Because of the system, Li Tianxiong's cultivation could not be hidden in front of him.
This guy is in the first level of the Spiritual Sea Realm on the surface, but in fact he is in the ninth level of the Spiritual Sea Realm, hiding a full eight small realms.
"What an old cunning guy!"
Lu Fan complained in his heart, and looked at Li Tianxiong calmly on the surface.
After a moment of eye contact, Li Tianxiong, who looked gloomy, suddenly laughed.
"It turned out to be His Royal Highness the Crown Prince! This is really a flood that has washed away the Dragon King Temple, hahaha..."
While laughing, Li Tianxiong quickly stepped forward and bowed to Lu Fan and said:
"Li Tianxiong, the head of the Li family, greets His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"
Looking at Li Tianxiong, whose face changed quickly, Lu Fan secretly became alert in his heart.
Such an old cunning guy is the most dangerous.
He smiles on the surface and seems to be harmless, but in fact he is a sinister and vicious snake.
If you are not careful, he will bite you.
"It turns out to be the head of the Li family. I wonder what the head of the Li family is here for!"
"My son accidentally bumped into His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, so I came to apologize to His Royal Highness. I hope His Royal Highness will not bother with a child."
A child!
It's really disgusting.
With a sneer in his heart, Lu Fan instantly restrained the smile on his face and said to Li Tianxiong lightly:
"I'm afraid that the head of the Li family is wrong. There is no son here, let alone a child, only an assassin who wants to assassinate me!"
As soon as these words came out, the smile on Li Tianxiong's face froze.
Li Ke, who was pinched by Qin Qiong's neck, was so scared that he struggled violently and shouted for help in fear.
"Dad, save me...save me...I don't want to die, save me!"
Looking at his son struggling in pain, Li Tianxiong suppressed his anger and murderous intent, and smiled at Lu Fan:
"Your Highness, although my son is a little naughty, it is absolutely impossible for him to assassinate Your Highness."
At this point, he took out a storage ring from his arms and handed it to Lu Fan.
"In the storage ring are some apologies prepared by Li for Your Highness, I hope Your Highness will accept them!"
Looking at the storage ring handed over by Li Tianxiong, Lu Fan raised his eyebrows and thought in his heart.
If I accept this storage ring, the incident of Li Ke attacking me just now will be over.
The advantage of this is that I will not be hostile to the Li family for the time being, and I can exchange for a period of peace.
But the disadvantage is that the first impression I left on the people in Hanyang City is cowardly.
If I don't accept this storage ring and insist on killing Li Ke, it means that I will completely break up with the Li family.
After a moment of thinking, Lu Fan made a decision.
He looked at Li Tianxiong deeply, and uttered a word in a cold voice.
"Kill!"
As the word "kill" came out, Qin Qiong broke Li Ke's neck without hesitation.
Crack!
There was a sound of bone breaking, and Li Ke's head fell down helplessly.
His face still maintained a look of fear and disbelief.
He never thought that Lu Fan would dare to kill him, and kill him in front of his father.
Li Tianxiong and a group of Li family members were also stunned.
The onlookers around him widened their eyes and looked at Lu Fan like a madman.
"He... He actually killed the third son of the Li family. He... Does he want to go to war with the Li family?"
"He is just a useless prince. How dare he!"
At this moment, all the onlookers were really shocked.
Because in their opinion, although Lu Fan became the governor of Hanyang County, he was ultimately a waste who could not practice.
As long as you are not a fool, you should let Li Ke go at this time and make friends with the Li family.
This was also what Li Tianxiong was thinking.
But no one expected that Lu Fan would... play against the rules!
Lu Wushuang's pretty face also showed an incredible look.
"Is he... is he crazy? He killed the third son of the Li family on the first day he arrived in Hanyang County."
Compared with other people, Qin Qiong, Li Cunxiao and others were indifferent, without any fear or dread.
There was even a hint of excitement.
At this moment, Li Tianxiong finally reacted, his face instantly became cold and ferocious, and his eyes were red.
"Good, good, very good... Hahahaha... Your Highness the Crown Prince is really good at it!"
The murderous intent emanating from Li Tianxiong directly made the surrounding air cold, like an ice cave.
Li Cunxiao, Luo Cheng and Xiahou Wei beside Lu Fan were also secretly alert.
As long as Li Tianxiong dared to make a move, they would kill him without hesitation.
However, Li Tianxiong did not do anything, but stared at Lu Fan with his red eyes.
After staring at Lu Fan for a long time, Li Tianxiong turned around and left without even looking at Li Ke's body.
Just as he walked to the crowd passage, he suddenly stopped, turned around and looked at Lu Fan coldly and said:
"This is Hanyang City, not Daqian Imperial Capital, Your Highness the Crown Prince must be careful!"
After saying this harsh word, Li Tianxiong turned around and left with a group of Li family members.
As for Li Ke's body, they did not take it away, and threw it on the ground like garbage.
Looking at Li Tianxiong and others who were leaving, Lu Fan narrowed his eyes slightly, and a fierce light flashed in the depths of his eyes.
This Li Tianxiong is very dangerous, and he must not be allowed to live!
[Ding, trigger the system mission: Control Hanyang City; mission reward: a primary summoning card!
Additional side mission: kill Li Tianxiong and destroy the Li family; mission reward: 10,000 points and a random magic weapon. 】
[Ding, does the host accept the task? 】
Lu Fan was slightly startled by the sudden sound of a notification tone, and couldn't help but ask in his mind:
"Hasn't the system already triggered the task of controlling the northern border? Now it has triggered the task of controlling Hanyang City. Isn't it a bit repetitive?"
[Ding, system tasks are triggered randomly, and repeated tasks will not affect task rewards. 】
After getting the system's answer, Lu Fan felt relieved.
He doesn't care about repeated tasks, he is just worried that repeated tasks will affect the task rewards.
But now the system’s answer is very clear, so there’s no need to worry.
After receiving the system task, Lu Fan turned to Qin Qiong and said, "Don't forget this guy's storage ring."
No matter how small the mosquito legs are, they are still meat.
Now he has no resources at all, so no matter how big or small the loot is, he cannot miss it.
"promise!"
After Qin Qiong put away Li Ke's storage ring, Lu Fan said to Jiang Shang with a smile on his face:
"Mr. Jiang, let's go and go back to the Sheriff's Mansion first. I have many questions that I want to ask you for advice!"
Although Jiang Shang is a character summoned by himself, he is 100% loyal to him.
But Lu Fan didn't really regard him as a tool, nor did Qin Qiong and others.
He had an inexplicable respect deep in his heart for these heroes from previous lives.
"Haha, my lord, don't be polite to Ziya, please!"
Although Jiang Shang is a little arrogant, he has a clear self-positioning.
The Lord is the Lord, and the servant is the servant.
The master can be polite, but as a servant, you must not be ignorant of good and evil.
Looking at Jiang Shang who stretched out his hand to let him go first, Lu Fan chuckled lightly and stopped giving in, walking straight forward.
Jiang Shang, Li Cunxiao and others followed closely, and the group just left Jinli Lake.
Watching Lu Fan and his entourage leave, the people watching suddenly went crazy...
