It's Lonely To Be Invincible
174 One Must Die Today
The spectating disciples were in utter shock. Their Senior Brother Lin just defeated the Saint Convent Sect's religious brother with brute force, and now, he was trying to take down the three peak leaders!
The news of Lin Fan's death previously did not come as a surprise, but when it was revealed that the murderers were four first-class inner disciples, the sect was struck dumb.
In the sect, a first-class inner disciple was of high status and an important part of the sect. This showed that the person behind the scenes was notable.
Now that Lin Fan was back, he was going to make things clear.
To all Magnificent Flame Sect disciples, this year felt like a busy year. There seemed to be a lot of incidents taking place, and all of them were of big importance.
Three powerful forces loomed over the three peaks. A loud noise rang across the disciples' ears. Three energies could be felt from the three calm peaks, making the sky bellow.
Three rays of light came from afar.
"Lin Fan, do not bully intolerably!" Wan Zhongtian bellowed, expressing his anger. He was unhappy that he was dragged down into the waters of some incident that was totally unrelated to him.
After being punished by elder Tian Xu, Wan Zhongtian had never left the sect. He stayed at the Skies of Zhong Peak daily to cultivate hard.
Wan Zhongtian might not have been weaker than the religious brother who came to strut around the Magnificent Flame Sect, but he still chose to not show himself as the Saint Convent Sect was the greatest sect in the world. Coming out to face him would only be an embarrassment to Wan Zhongtian.
But he witnessed all that took place just now. He knew that Lin Fan was no longer the guy whom they could just suppress as they liked.
And the religious brother that was defeated after one attack might not be someone I am capable of defeating in the first place.
Anger was swimming in Jun Wutian's eyes too. He was much more powerful than the religious brother, but due to the sect being too weak, he dared not act presumptuously.
The incident of Lin Fan suppressing the religious brother had already been carved in their minds. Now, they only had one thought about Lin Fan.
It's too late to suppress him now. He has already gone out of our control.
Even without Elder Tian Xu, there might not be anyone among the ten peaks capable of taking him down at this point. Even ignoring the fact that he had Elder Tian Xu behind him, they didn't even know how strong Lin Fan himself was.
Damn it. When did this start? His appearance threatened the peak leaders' status, and he could even end up suppressing them.
Lin Fan placed his hands behind the back and looked down at them. "You guys have finally come out."
I have already flaunted my power today, so I should establish my standing in the sect today. I might only be an Earth Star Border Stage Six, but I'm no weaker than them. Not only that, I am actually even stronger than them.
I'll be the eleventh peak leader. Nobody will be able to stop me from establishing my own peak.
Zhan Hongdi looked at Lin Fan coldly. Even though Tian Xu was able to suppress him, that did not mean that just anybody could do the same. He took a step forward, looking as if he was about to go to war. There seemed to be a war taking place in his orbs as a fearful aura enveloped the place.
To many disciples, Zhan Hongdi was the god of war. His intent to fight was enough to make the spectating disciples shiver.
"Lin Fan, I have not crossed paths with you, what do you want?" Zhan Hongdi's voice boomed across the area, making the disciples shake in fear.
His voice was powerful enough to make an ordinary disciple scared.
However, it was just child's play to Lin Fan.
"We have indeed not crossed paths, but sadly, there's only the three of you here in the sect out of the ten peak leaders. And today, I would like to know who the one that instructed those four is."
"You're so unreasonable. You are blaming it on us even if you do not have proof? So, what are you going to do if nobody owns up? Kill all three of us?" Zhan Hongdi sneered. As the peak leader of Great Emperor Peak, when had he been humiliated to such a state? Now, he was being interrogated by some dark horse disciple, so how was he going to face the disciples when this news spread?
Lin Fan smiled, looking at the trio with his bloody red orbs. "You're right. I'm either going to kill just one or all three."
As soon as he spoke up, the spectating disciples were all astonished. How daring is Senior Brother Lin? The trio in front of him are three peak leaders, not any ordinary disciples.
Elder Huo Rong was dying to stop the fight, but he felt that he was being eyed by somebody. Of course, other than Tian Xu, who else could it be?
He was unaware of what Tian Xu was thinking. Does he want to watch the sect receive damage and have disciples dying?
Or maybe, this is his way of trying to path the route to success for his disciple. The three peak leaders are his targets to establish his prestige.
Wan Zhongtian, who had been standing there silently, was bellowing in his mind. I only want to be a peak leader who has control over my juniors and be the senior brother that everyone looks up to peacefully!
Wan Zhongtian was too aware that, amongst the ten peak leaders, he was the weakest. If he were to go against the religious brother, he might not have won even if he gave it his all. How am I supposed to go against this Lin Fan, who took down the religious brother with just one attack?
"Lin Fan, we might be unhappy with each other, but it was just a minor incident. There's no reason why I would send anyone to kill you. I regret ever caring for Liu Ruochen, who has just betrayed the sect to join the Saint Convent Sect. I was the blind one here." Wan Zhongtian stepped up, losing his imposing manner.
Wan Zhongtian no longer had the means to fight against Lin Fan. He might not have been at the scene personally, but he witnessed the entire incident.
Lin Fan was extremely cruel, especially when he held the religious brother in his hands and slammed him to the ground. The bloody sight had been carved deeply into Wan Zhongtian's heart. He certainly did not wish to end up in the same manner.
If anything really happened, Wan Zhongtian was not even confident that the three of them could take down Lin Fan together. Instead, he felt that the three of them would be totally defeated by Lin Fan.
He might not kill us, but we would be totally embarrassed in front of the disciples.
With the support of Elder Tian Xu, it wouldn't be a tough thing for him to become the eleventh peak leader.
Zhan Hongdi turned to Wan Zhongtian, looking at him in disdain. "Wan Zhongtian, you're scared."
This made Wan Zhongtian both unhappy and embarrassed. He was indeed afraid, but how could he admit that in front of all the disciples? Thus, he could only insist on his point.
"I'm not scared, just stating the facts," Wan Zhongtian replied firmly. "I, Wan Zhongtian, do not fear losing, but I would not assassinate my fellow sect mates. It's an absolutely disgraceful and sneaky thing to do."
"Stand aside, this is none of your business now." Lin Fan laughed and turned to Wan Zhongtian.
Hearing him, Wan Zhongtian immediately heaved a sigh of relief. "Thank you for trusting me. I, Wan Zhongtian, am not somebody who would act in that manner." He bowed.
"You're thinking too much." Lin Fan shook his head. "It's not because I trust you, you're simply too cowardly. With your guts, you would not dare to kill me even if you had ten more minions."
"You…!" Wan Zhongtian gritted his teeth. He stopped halfway, not daring to continue.
"What?" Lin Fan looked at him coldly. "Do you feel that you're being defamed? If you're unhappy, you can remain standing there. Killing two or three is of no difference to me.
"You're too cowardly. Killing you would dirty my hands. Get lost if you do not wish to die. If you say more, I'll kill you first."
Lin Fan spoke presumptuously as disdain could be seen swimming in his eyes. To him, Wan Zhongtian was nothing.
I used to think that he was powerful. But now, he's nothing. If I can defeat the religious brother with just one attack, I can defeat Wan Zhongtian with just half an attack.
Tian Xu stood on the mountain peak. The ground next to him stuck out slightly. Soon, a figure could be seen next to him.
"Tian Xu, your disciple is extremely arrogant. But we are aware that you're making use of the three peak leaders to increase his prestige in the sect and establish the eleventh peak. We are not against it, but you should compensate Jun Wutian, Wan Zhongtian, and Zhan Hongdi." The elder was muddy yellow in color. It appeared that he had picked up a skillset that allowed him to fuse with the ground and cultivate by making use of its energy.
"Compensate?" Tian Xu shook his head. "Earth Emperor, all my assets are for my disciple. Nobody else has the right or ability to take anything away from me.
"As for making use of the peak leaders, that's too simple. Today, one of these three will dye the sect red with his blood."
Earth Emperor's face fell. "Tian Xu, what are you trying to do? They are the important personnel of the sect and candidates for the next sect leader!"
"So what if they are candidates? His death day was decided the day he sent his fellow sect mates out to assassinate my disciple." Tian Xu caressed his beard, eyes stuck to the arena far away.
"The patriarch will not allow this to happen," the Earth Emperor said after a pause.
"This is unavoidable." Tian Xu shrugged. "Go back and tell Senior Brother that, if there's no blood seen today, I'll leave the sect with my disciple. The world is huge, it's not like there's nowhere for me to go. I'm sick and tired of a sect that does not allow one to take revenge even when they're almost murdered."
"That's not something you should say with your current status." The Earth Emperor's face changed. He did not expect Tian Xu to make such a comment. If Tian Xu left the sect, they would incur an unrecoverable loss.
"Status? I was never interested in being an elder in the first place. If Senior Brother did not plead for me to stay and assist him sixty years ago, I would have already left." Tian Xu then raised his hands. "Go on and tell Senior Brother my words. Do not challenge me. And let him decide on what the best for him to do is.
"Today, one of the three peak leaders must die."
Earth Emperor disappeared from the spot.
On the peak, Tian Xu stood there, not flinching even a bit. Those who were of the same generation as Tian Xu would know that Lin Fan was just like Tian Xu when he was serious.
Sixty years ago, during the patriarch election, he killed the person who sent people to murder his senior brother, whom he was protecting even today.
