Top-tier Unruly Master

At this moment, the Zombie Leader saw Ding Fan's flying sword whistling towards him. The zombie immediately raised its hand quickly, and in an instant, the flying sword was caught in the zombie's hand. However, the flying sword didn't stop moving, and the zombie's hand quickly was sliced open, making dark green liquid gush out from the zombie's hand. Despite this, the Zombie Leader did not let go, but instead gripped it tighter, until finally the flying sword came to a stop in the Zombie Leader's hand.

Then the Zombie Leader showed a very disdainful smile and moved his gaze from the flying sword to Ding Fan, seemingly wanting to show off to Ding Fan. But when the Zombie Leader wanted to look at Ding Fan, he found that Ding Fan had already disappeared without a trace. The Zombie Leader was stunned in his heart and looked back at those few people he had captured, realizing they were already gone. Seeing this, the Zombie Leader looked furious, clearly realizing he had been tricked.

Meanwhile, Ding Fan had already taken Ye Ningbing and others to one side, clearly having successfully rescued Ye Ningbing and others.

The Zombie Leader, with a furious and hideous expression, saw Ding Fan opposite him, and was extremely angry. Ding Fan was also very surprised because even though it was just a tactic of his own just now, one should know that his sword was not to be underestimated. But unexpectedly, the zombie managed to grab the flying sword with just one hand.

At the same time, Ding Fan gained a certain understanding of the Zombie Leader's strength. Clearly, his power was not to be underestimated. He was obviously far beyond the usual zombies and far beyond himself.

Elder Fa, who was in the fierce battle over there, saw what happened with Ding Fan and felt slightly relieved, knowing that Ye Ningbing and others were saved by Ding Fan. Elder Fa knew that for a genius cultivator like Ding Fan, his sect must maintain a good relationship with him.

Moreover, what made Elder Fa a little happy was knowing first that Ding Fan had a very good attitude towards the sect, otherwise, he wouldn't be helping the sect to eliminate these zombies. But what happened just now clearly made Elder Fa feel anxious. He could definitely see the importance of those female cultivators to Ding Fan. If they had been killed by the zombie, the relationship between Ding Fan and the sect would definitely be affected, as Ding Fan was entrusted to protect them.

Now, it's a relatively good ending; as long as those people are safe, Elder Fa's heart won't be too tense.

However, for Elder Fa, the scene with the zombie shocked him greatly. Clearly, Ding Fan's sword was not something that an ordinary cultivator could block, but the zombie managed to catch Ding Fan's flying sword with just one hand, which was unbelievable!

The strength of that zombie was indeed astonishing. Elder Fa believed that if it were any other zombie, Ding Fan's sword would have been deadly. Clearly, this zombie was extraordinary!

The two disciples of the Hongshan Sect, having seen the moment when the zombie caught the flying sword, were very excited and shocked, clearly not expecting the zombie to be so mighty! They couldn't help but be very worried for Ding Fan.

Although for the two disciples of Hongshan Sect, Ding Fan saving Ye Ningbing and others was a good thing, their own crisis had not yet been resolved. The situation was not very clear, as Elder Fa was still entangled with another zombie and the zombie Ding Fan was facing was clearly not a common one.

These two disciples of the Hongshan Sect were very aware that their fate was now completely in the hands of Ding Fan and Elder Fa, since their strength was not enough to even be seen by the zombies.

Now, He Qianyao and others had been rescued by Ding Fan, feeling deep gratitude towards him. However, they also felt some regret, clearly not expecting the zombie to be so powerful when they rushed up before, only to be completely controlled by the zombie. This made them feel deeply regretful.

Ye Ningbing and the others stood behind Ding Fan, watching the zombie in front of him, feeling very worried for Ding Fan. They already experienced the zombie's power, which was definitely not that of an ordinary zombie. Clearly, this zombie was much stronger than the typical ones.

Ye Ningbing was greatly worried for Ding Fan, knowing that although Ding Fan was a god, he was only a Divinity Soldier Second Grade, which is equivalent to the late stage Nascent Soul cultivation. Even though Ding Fan had previously defeated a cultivator of the late Nascent Soul stage, the zombie in front was definitely not much weaker than a late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator.

Moreover, Ding Fan had no weapon in his hand, as his flying sword was still in the hands of the zombie, making it even more difficult for him to defeat the opponent. Ye Ningbing couldn't help but worry greatly for Ding Fan...

"Fall back and let me handle this guy."

With a resolute gaze, Ding Fan spoke to Ye Ningbing and the others behind him. Hearing Ding Fan's words, they slowly began to move backward, clearly not wanting to become a burden for Ding Fan anymore.

"Ding Fan, be careful..."

Ye Ningbing said softly, with great concern for Ding Fan.

"Don't worry."

Ding Fan turned back to give Ye Ningbing a calm smile, not wanting her to worry too much about him.

Seeing Ding Fan's smile, Ye Ningbing felt slightly less worried, and she followed the others in retreating steadily, not wanting to interfere with Ding Fan.

Roar...

At this moment, the Zombie Leader looked at Ding Fan with fury, obviously extremely angry, and then charged wildly toward Ding Fan, determined to kill him.

As the Zombie Leader rushed at Ding Fan, it discarded the Flying Sword in its hand, clearly showing that the sword was of no use to the zombie and was even a burden. In an instant, the Zombie Leader was about to be right in front of Ding Fan.

The Zombie Leader's speed was fast, much faster compared to other zombies. At this moment, Ye Ningbing and the others saw the scene in front of Ding Fan, and couldn't help but worry deeply for him. Obviously, this zombie was not an ordinary one, and killing it would not be an easy task.

Although He Qianyao and the others were still very worried about Ding Fan at this time, they dared not rush forward to help him. Previously they planned to assist Ding Fan, but ended up becoming the Zombie's bargaining chips. Clearly, this time everyone was determined not to make the same mistake.

However, everyone was deeply worried for Ding Fan, feeling that Ding Fan might indeed not be a match for the Zombie. After all, this was not an ordinary zombie; consider Ding Fan's Flying Sword earlier—had it been any normal zombie, it would have been destroyed utterly, but this zombie could grab it with just one hand, showing it was extremely strong!

It's essential to know that Ding Fan is merely a Cultivator of the Divinity Soldier Second Grade; how could he possibly deal with such a zombie? It's simply unrealistic.

At this moment, He Qianyao and the others were even beginning to think up escape plans, because if Ding Fan proved to be no match for the Zombie, everyone would surely need to leave here quickly.

"Everyone, pay attention to the terrain. If we need to escape, be prepared."

He Qianyao looked at everyone with a very serious expression and spoke. Ye Ningbing heard He Qianyao's words and felt somewhat in agreement, but she still wanted to believe in Ding Fan. However, even Ye Ningbing knew the odds of Ding Fan killing the zombie were very slim, almost impossible...

Phew...

The Zombie Leader rushed to Ding Fan's side, not eager to punch him, instead spitting out a large amount of dark green liquid at him. Obviously, this was a highly corrosive liquid, and if an ordinary cultivator touched even a little bit, the consequences would be dire.

The Zombie Leader sprayed a considerable amount of dark green liquid, covering a wide area. Much more than what an average zombie would spray. The liquid spread out before Ding Fan, leaving nowhere to hide.

Ye Ningbing and the others witnessing this scene couldn't help but feel a bit stunned and immediately began worrying heavily for Ding Fan. They knew that this corrosive liquid was not something easy to deal with; Ding Fan was in danger.

At this moment, Ding Fan also felt slightly tight in his chest upon seeing the scene. This Zombie Leader was indeed much more difficult to deal with than ordinary zombies, but simply using corrosive liquid to defeat him was obviously not going to work!

Swish, swish...

Ding Fan's figure continuously flickered, and in just an instant, he appeared behind the Zombie Leader. Clearly, none of the corrosive liquid touched him.

Ding Fan picked up the Flying Sword from the ground and struck fiercely at the critical position of the Zombie Leader. In terms of agility, Ding Fan was evidently a hundred times more agile than the zombie. This strike successfully pierced the Zombie Leader's body.

However, Ding Fan was somewhat surprised that the Flying Sword had struck the critical position of the zombie, yet, for some unknown reason, nothing happened to it. Ding Fan couldn't help but be taken aback; clearly, this was the first time encountering such a situation. He urgently released his Divine Sense to carefully observe the zombie's most critical position.

After some observation, Ding Fan indeed discovered what was wrong. It turned out the critical position of the Zombie Leader had a protective layer underneath. Although his Flying Sword pierced the zombie's body, it hadn't hit the critical spot.

Ding Fan understood this and realized that since one strike couldn't kill it, then he would go for another one. But at this moment, the zombie stunningly turned its head and arm around. Ding Fan saw this and was truly shocked, unable to believe the Zombie Leader could do such a thing.

At this moment, Ding Fan and the Zombie Leader were face to face, only a single arm's distance apart. Ding Fan saw this and was startled, and his expression suddenly became grave, realizing that if the zombie attacked him now, it would be a devastatingly close-range punch. The zombie's power was enormous, and a punch at such close proximity was simply unimaginable.

Ding Fan had no option to retreat; clearly, he had found out that it was challenging to kill the Zombie Leader with just one sword strike. His Flying Sword had already pierced the critical position; he just needed to push forward with another forceful strike, and then the Zombie Leader's fate would be sealed.
