Chapter 71

In the midst of the shocked gazes of the crowd, Chen Fan crossed his arms behind his back and slowly descended from the air.

The several-zhang-long golden light sword had long since transformed into countless runes, returning to the Thunder Shock Talisman. This immortal technique was called 'True Martial Sword,' which Chen Fan had barely managed to inscribe into the jade marrow magical tool with the help of Spirit Gathering Pills over seven days.

'True Martial Sword' was the most basic sect technique that cultivators of the True Martial Immortal Sect could master.

The sword was invincible, and its power depended entirely on the cultivator's level.

Chen Fan's sword strike was particularly powerful; it could not only cut through a mere阴蛇 (yīn shé) but even slice a steel tank in two.

However, this technique consumed a great deal of energy. Just one strike almost drained all of his true essence. If he hadn't swallowed a Spirit Gathering Pill in time, transforming it into a surge of true essence, he might not have been able to maintain the 'Heavenly Step' and would have fallen directly from the air.

'If my master, the Azure Immortal, were here, with this True Martial Sword and the Mountain Severing technique, he could probably even split the sun in two.'

Chen Fan thought of the power of the True Immortal of his previous life and couldn't help but feel a sense of longing.

He didn't know how many more years it would take for him to cultivate and transcend the tribulation again in this life.

Seeing Chen Fan land, the crowd finally reacted. Mr. Shi forced a surge of true essence, suppressing the yin energy within him, and stiffly bowed to Chen Fan:

"Thank you, Immortal, for saving me. I will remember this in my heart and repay you with all I have."

Every word he spoke came from the heart. He had thought he was about to die, but Chen Fan had displayed divine power, slaying the yin dragon!

Judging by Chen Fan's final aerial strike and the dragon-slaying sword, Mr. Shi was certain that this person was a high-level cultivator beyond the Daoist realm.

Such a person, in ancient times, would be a true immortal of Daoism or a master of Buddhism, possessing all sorts of incredible powers and abilities. In China, they were as rare as phoenix feathers and unicorn horns.

Master Wu and Ah Xiu also hurried over to pay their respects to Chen Fan.

Ah Xiu, while curiously examining the fierce giant snake's corpse up close, looked up at Chen Fan with admiration, her resolve growing stronger.

This was her teacher! If he could kill such a terrifying giant snake, what else could he not do?

Jiang Shao and the others stood there, unable to move forward or backward.

After they recovered, their fear did not diminish but intensified.

Over the past two days in the mountains, the young masters of Dongdu had mocked Chen Fan and his companions, and some had even refused to give them water or food, greatly offending Chen Fan.

The current Chen Fan was no longer the ordinary person who could be bullied at will, but a 'divine being' who could slay a giant snake with a sword.

Hadn't even the powerful Mr. Shi, who was seen as strong by everyone, sincerely bowed to him?

Would offending such a person end well?

At this moment, a sharp female voice suddenly rang out:

"Chen Fan! Why didn't you act earlier!"

Cheng Anqi strode over angrily, removed her sunglasses, and her beautiful eyes were filled with rage as she pointed at Chen Fan and shouted:

"Do you know, if you had acted earlier, Eamon wouldn't have died, and my bodyguards wouldn't have died so many!"

"These lives are all your responsibility!"

Her anger was so intense that even her fear of the giant snake's corpse was suppressed.

"What are you saying! Master Chen saved your life, and you still blame him for acting too late?"

Ah Xiu was so angry that her face turned red.

What shameless woman! What relationship did Master Chen have with you? Saving you was out of kindness, and not saving you was also justified, yet you still dared to be so presumptuous.

Even Mr. Shi smiled awkwardly.

"Miss Cheng, we are already deeply grateful that Immortal Chen came to our aid. Why must we demand so much?"

It was like a group of people drowning, and someone decided to save them, but the rescued people instead blamed the rescuer for not saving them earlier, saying that no one would have drowned if they had been saved sooner.

Chen Fan's expression was indifferent.

People are like this; they fear power but do not cherish kindness.

Facing the terrifying giant snake, Cheng Anqi would never have dared to be so presumptuous, and she would have fled as far as possible. But with only Chen Fan present, her subconscious told her that Chen Fan was not dangerous and would not kill her, so she dared to criticize him face-to-face, even though she knew Chen Fan's strength far exceeded that of the giant snake.

He said calmly:

"Miss Cheng, what kind of relationship do we have?"

"Whether I act or when I act, what does it have to do with you?"

Cheng Anqi's face turned stiff, not expecting Chen Fan to speak so bluntly and not give her any face.

The young lady took several deep breaths, finally suppressing her anger and regaining some composure.

She said coldly:

"Fine, let's not talk about the rescue. Since you killed the giant snake, can you now let us go to the pond to retrieve the divine medicine?"

"Oh, so you came for the divine medicine in the pond?" Chen Fan crossed his arms behind his back and suddenly said, "Why should I let you pass? Is the Yin Dragon Pond yours?"

Cheng Anqi's face turned red with disbelief as she looked at Chen Fan:

"Are you going to stop us?"

"Besides, the Yin Dragon Pond isn't yours either! What right do you have to stop us?"

Chen Fan ignored the self-important woman and turned to the Yin Ghost Sect members, saying:

"From today on, the Yin Dragon Pond belongs to me. Do you agree?"

The Yin Ghost Sect members hesitated at the entrance of the valley, wanting to leave but not daring to.

Chen Fan had slain the hundred-year-old demon snake, and with his strength, he could easily sweep through the entire Yin Ghost Sect. This was not just a snake hiding in the pond but a rare cultivator! If he wished, he could chase them to their deaths, from the heavens to the underworld.

Hearing Chen Fan's words, Old Ghost Mu and Yan Zhengze hurriedly bowed:

"The Yin Ghost Sect will follow the Immortal's command."

Chen Fan turned and looked at Cheng Anqi indifferently:

"See, it's mine now."

"You can leave. The Yin Dragon Pond does not welcome you!"

Cheng Anqi was speechless, feeling a surge of anger that made her want to tear the person in front of her to pieces!

She had been pampered by her family and those around her since birth.

The daughter of the Hong Kong Cheng family, a descendant of British nobility, stunningly beautiful, educated at a prestigious university, and after graduation, she entered the modeling industry, becoming a famous model and founding her own brand. Wherever she went, she was pursued by many men.

It had been a long time since Cheng Anqi had been refused, especially by a man, which made her even angrier.

Cheng Anqi, flustered, shouted:

"Why should it be yours just because you say so? I don't accept it!"

"Chen boy, don't think you can act recklessly just because you have some magic. This is modern society, and we have laws!"

Her words not only made Ah Xiu and others furious but also shocked Mr. Shi.

The current Chen Fan was not the same as before.

Young lady, you are speaking to a cultivator who can slay a demon dragon! Such great power means he holds life and death in his hands. What can your Hong Kong Cheng family do?

If he kills, he kills. Can the Cheng family really do anything to an immortal?

Especially in this remote mountain, if you truly anger Chen Fan, no one related to the Cheng family will leave Qishan!

Facing the seemingly deranged Cheng Anqi, Chen Fan only said one word indifferently:

"Get out!"

"What did you say?" Cheng Anqi couldn't believe her ears.

"I said..."

"Get! Out!"

The last three words were spoken with true essence power. Cheng Anqi felt a thunderous boom in her ears, and she staggered, falling to the ground.

Mr. Shi hurriedly bowed:

"Immortal Chen, Miss Cheng did not know your power and offended you. Please forgive her."

"We will leave now!"

He quickly instructed the female bodyguard to help Cheng Anqi up and hurriedly left.

Seeing this, Jiang Shao and the others dared not stay a moment longer and also fled, leaving only the bodies on the ground and Chen Fan and his companions standing there.

Oh, right, there were also the Yin Ghost Sect members at the entrance of the valley.

Old Ghost Mu and others had also wanted to sneak away, but a voice suddenly echoed in their ears.

"Did I tell you to leave?"

Mu Hongsheng and Yan Zhengze turned around and saw Chen Fan's indifferent gaze and the smug Master Wu beside him, and they couldn't help but cry out in their hearts:

"This is a big trouble, people are going to die!"
