伊人久久伊人

Chapter 426 - Letter of Life and Death Challenge

“Haha, very good! How refreshing!” Chen Fan whistled and slapped the ground, pushing himself up.

Chen Fan practiced his punches, the sound of his breath mixing with the wind. Every punch had the power to move mountains or part seas, manipulating the flow of qi to create towering waves that surged fiercely through the air, creating a magnificent spectacle.

One round, two rounds, three rounds...

Chen Fan threw out punches faster and faster. His true primeval flowed smoothly, and his strength became more refined and unimpeded.

He punched continuously until he was drenched in sweat. Still, he felt like he hadn’t punched enough. Taking a deep breath, his eyes gleaming with determination, he suddenly glanced toward the distance.

“Hmm?”

Suddenly, a voice was transmitted over.

“What great spirits you’re in, Brother Chen Fan. Your ability to take in the primeval qi of heaven and earth is so great. If you keep absorbing it at this rate, you might deplete the primeval qi in our area."

“That’s right. You are now a holy disciple, Brother Chen Fan, and we’ve yet to congratulate you. I wonder if you’ll allow us into your residence?”

Two voices resonated with remarkable strength, reaching out to Chen Fan across the space.

“Excuse me, you are?”

Chen Fan grew cautious. Although he was in the Heavenly Vein Mountains, dangers still lurked everywhere. He had never let his guard down for a moment.

The names rushed in, accompanied by two formidable figures who materialized within the massive residence, effortlessly bypassing the surrounding barriers.

“Yue Zhongtian.”

“Lei Wushuang.”

Yue Zhongtian, Lei Wushuang! Leaders of the Moon Alliance and the Lightning Association. Aren’t their organizations second only to the Heaven’s Alliance? They are experts among the holy disciples, ranked within the top five.

Still, Chen Fan showed no changes in his expression. Looking at them, he carefully probed them with his perception. They were both at the fifth level.

As soon as Yue Zhongtian saw Chen Fan, he said, “Brother Chen Fan, you becoming a holy disciple truly is an occasion worth celebrating. Especially since you’ve greatly suppressed the Heaven’s Alliance’s arrogance and helped many inner sect disciples vent their frustrations.”

“Hoho, you’re flattering me. Such deeds are hardly worth mentioning. You lead your respective organizations, staunchly resisting the Heaven’s Alliance without yielding an inch. It\'s truly commendable.” Chen Fan smiled faintly and said, “My abode is simple and crude. I’ve yet to even offer you tea as a show of hospitality. Please excuse my negligence.”

“It doesn’t matter.” Lei Wushuang was tall and sturdy. His cultivation was robust; crackling lightning danced around him. His hands clasped behind his back, he had an air of superiority around him, as if he could command the mountains and rivers or wield the universe at his fingertips. With a casual gesture, the muffled rumble of thunder reverberated through the space.

“We\'ve come to propose joining forces with you against Duan Jingtian. Now that you’ve become a holy disciple, you’re qualified to establish an organization to build your influence. If it’s inconvenient for you, we can assist you in setting up your organization to bridge any gaps in your strength. After all, there are some things that we can’t possibly take care of personally given our current statuses. It’ll be better to have some minions to take care of the trivial matters.”

“Oh? Given my hostility with Duan Jingtian, who would dare risk severe repercussions by joining my organization?” Chen Fan curled his lips and said.

Duan Jingtian’s influence within the Spring Autumn Sect was immense, and he had numerous devoted followers.

Establishing an organization would likely attract only a few, as joining would mean opposing Duan Jingtian—an unwise move.

“Haha, many in the sect admire Duan Jingtian, but there are also many who can’t stand his tyranny. Once you establish your organization, I’m sure many will join you,” Yue Zhongtian said, smiling.

Chen Fan waved and said, “Let’s talk about this later. I don’t intend to create an organization for now. Surely, you’re not here for just that? You didn’t even have to look for me. Duan Jingtian and I are archenemies. The grudge between us is irreconcilable; only one will remain standing.”

Yue Zhongtian and Lei Wushuang exchanged glances.

Yue Zhongtian said, “Fine. Since you don’t want an organization, forget about it. And, yes. We didn’t come here for just that.

“Since everyone knows the situation between you and Duan Jingtian, we can be frank. Duan Jingtian is arrogant, tyrannical, and cruel. His motto has always been \'those who stand with me thrive, while those who oppose me die.\' Once he becomes the Spring Autumn Sect’s sect leader, there will undoubtedly be a bloodbath. Those of us who have opposed him for years would find ourselves in grave danger. Hence, we share a common adversary.

“Our organizations have been monitoring the Heaven’s Alliance’s every movement. Now that Duan Jingtian is repenting for his actions, his alliance members aren\'t as arrogant as before. However, recently, they became active again.

“According to our intel, Tianxia Society’s leader, Feng Tianxia went to the Black Wind Cliff in secret a month ago, quite likely to meet Duan Jingtian. I’m afraid it’s nothing good for you.

“Truthfully speaking, your progress has been astonishing. It\'s possible that even Duan Jingtian feels threatened by you. He might ally with Feng Tianxia to eliminate you while he is away.”

“Feng Tianxia...” A cold light flashed across Chen Fan’s eyes.

When Chen Fan entered the inner sect, Tianxia Society members had tried to force him into joining the organization. He refused, so they attacked him.

It escalated to a life-and-death showdown in the arena where he humiliated the Tianxia Society, provoking Feng Tianxia into taking action against him.

He also had a grudge against the Tianxia Society, so he wasn’t surprised that Feng Tianxia joined hands with Duan Jingtian to deal with him.

Suddenly, a powerful aura erupted outside the mountain peak.

Woo, woo.

Simultaneously, the sound of wind filled the air as a streak of light pierced through the barrier, hurtling toward Chen Fan like lightning.

Swoosh!

With the might of ten thousand horses galloping, Chen Fan grabbed the streak of light through the void. He looked at it closely and realized it was a letter of challenge.

A voice resounded.

“Chen Fan, you killed Song Yang and several other members of my Tianxia Society. Today, I, Feng Tianxia, shall challenge you to a fight. I will wait for you at the life and death arena in ten days!”

Feng Tianxia’s voice was mixed with a mouthful of true primeval, spreading far and wide across the inner sect. Not only did Chen Fan hear it clearly, but the entire inner sect was also shaken by the proclamation, erupting into chaos.
