伊人久久伊人

Chapter 438 - The Observing Holy Disciples

Many had never anticipated such an outcome to this battle, least of all the members of the Tianxia Society and the Heaven\'s Alliance, whose faces had turned pale.

“Feng Tianxia is dead...”

“Is the world coming to an end? Just what happened? I clearly saw Chen Fan falling at a disadvantage. Why—no, how did his strength suddenly increase?”

“What body cultivation technique can bring forth such an otherworldly space-time phenomenon? Ancient elephants that trampled space? Is this a magic trick?”

“So, that was his true ace in the hole? That’s too terrifying!”

“......”

The people had suffered a serious shock, looking pale. When they looked at Chen Fan, their gazes carried a strong sense of awe and apprehension.

“How could this happen? Society Leader is... dead!”

“Impossible! This isn’t real. This must be fake! There’s no way Society Leader will lose to this little beast!”

“It’s over, Tianxia Society is done for!”

In the wake of Feng Tianxia\'s death, Tianxia Society members had lost all their previous belligerence. Every one of them looked like their parents had just died, their legs trembling.

The cornerstone of the Tianxia Society crumbled with his death, plunging its members into despair.

Without his protection, the Tianxia Society feared for their future. Their long-standing arrogance and overbearing attitude had made many inner sect disciples hate them. Soon, those they had bullied would launch a fierce retaliation against them in revenge.

"It\'s all over... this guy is truly fearsome, a genuine monster."

In the air, the holy disciples also finally came back to their senses one after another. They looked at Chen Fan as unfamiliar and unknown emotions flashed in their eyes.

Chen Fan\'s meteoric rise had been nothing short of astonishing. In less than half a year, he had ascended to great heights, gaining the power to kill experts at the sixth level—an achievement that left them stupefied.

Not even Duan Jingtian could achieve such outstanding results.

Who would dare to treat Chen Fan as a rookie holy disciple now?!

Could a rookie holy disciple even achieve anything close to this?

“I wonder how Duan Jingtian will take the news of this battle. Since he supported Feng Tianxia, he likely thinks of Chen Fan as a threat and wanted to nip him in the bud, but he failed.”

“True. With Duan Jingtian still serving his sentence at Black Wind Cliff, he can’t intervene directly. However, many grand elders are on his side. I wonder if he’ll get some of them to take action against Chen Fan in the dark.”

“The current situation still isn’t clear. Chen Fan’s growth is astounding. No one knows how much stronger he will be in a year. Perhaps he really can challenge Duan Jingtian.”

“I planned on going to the Black Wind Cliff to pledge allegiance if Feng Tianxia won. But from the looks of things now, I’ll have to wait and see. At the very least, I need to wait until Duan Jingtian’s sentence ends.”

Many thoughts ran through the holy disciples’ minds.

Duan Jingtian had momentum on his side, so if nothing went wrong, he would be the next sect leader.

Once he had that position, he would bring about a bloodbath, leaving the holy disciples with the daunting task of choosing sides early on.

Chen Fan had killed Feng Tianxia with overwhelming power, giving them hope that he could fight against Duan Jingtian. That hope embodied itself in Chen Fan.

“What do you think, Lei Wushuang?” Yue Zhongtian sent a voice transmission to Lei Wushuang.

The two of them had also planned on joining Duan Jingtian’s side if Chen Fan lost to gain some benefits. However, the results had left them somewhat perplexed.

After a brief silence, Lei Wushuang said, “Let\'s hold off for now. We need to gauge Duan Jingtian\'s next moves after his punishment. Chen Fan is growing stronger at an unreal rate. He just might have a chance against Duan Jingtian. Rushing into a decision now could leave us with no recourse in the future.”

"Agreed. We\'ll bide our time.” Yue Zhongtian nodded.

......

Chen Fan glanced at Feng Tianxia’s corpse on the ground. He grabbed at the air and pulled Bloody Sky to him; it had lodged itself into the ground. He exclaimed, “Excellent blade! Truly an excellent blade!”

With Feng Tianxia dead, Bloody Sky belonged to him as his trophy.

The expressions of Heaven\'s Alliance and Tianxia Society members darkened at the sight, particularly those from Heaven\'s Alliance, itching to seize Bloody Sky for themselves.

After all, Bloody Sky belonged to Duan Jingtian, who gave it to Feng Tianxia. Alas, Feng Tianxia died, and the blade became Chen Fan’s trophy.

This was equivalent to Chen Fan slapping Duan Jingtian in the face.

Chen Fan was unfazed by the resentful stares directed at him. He was at the height of his prestige. So what if the members of the Heaven’s Alliance and the Tianxia Society resented him? They could seethe all they wanted, but none dared to challenge him unless they wanted to die.

Putting Bloody Sky away, Chen Fan grabbed at the air again and brought Feng Tianxia’s storage ring over. Through a quick scan, he found some good items inside.

Swish!

Chen Fan did not stay any longer at the Life and Death Hall. His figure blurred and shot into the air, disappearing in the blink of an eye.

The holy disciples also made their exit in their little groups, discussing something among themselves.

The Life and Death Hall erupted into chaos, voices rising as discussions grew louder, no longer hushed.

“It’s over. Who would\'ve thought it would end with Feng Tianxia\'s death?”

“A holy disciple died, just like that. The higher-ups of the sect did not try to stop it!”

“Hoho, everyone knew about their life-and-death battle. It was already set in stone according to the rules. Who can stop it?”

“You have a point. Now that Feng Tianxia is dead, the Tianxia Society will collapse. Over the years, their members have been nothing but arrogant, oppressing many people. Hehe, I’m afraid they have some hard times ahead.”

“......”

Many people’s gazes swept over the members of the Tianxia Society, many filled with coldness. These people had all been oppressed by the Tianxia Society.

However, due to Feng Tianxia’s presence, they could only swallow their anger. Now, it was time for them to take revenge.

......

Black Wind Cliff:

Duan Jingtian sat facing the vast sea of clouds, churning ahead. It was a majestic sight.

The winds at Black Wind Cliff whipped fiercely, akin to blades slicing through the air, uncomfortable for anyone in their path. Even Yuanfu realm martial artists would find the conditions challenging.

Swish.

Amidst the howling winds, a figure broke through, landing on the platform of Black Wind Cliff.

The newcomer was Xie Feng, now occupying Yuan Kun\'s former role as the commander of Heaven\'s Alliance.
