Bang!
Lan Zhengqing acted without saying a word, shooting out like a cannonball, piercing through wind and snow to strike directly at Lin Fan!
This sudden move caused all the exiles to gasp in shock and stand dumbfounded!
In their eyes, Lan Zhengqing had always been a noble person, who would never engage in such sneaky actions, especially an ambush.
Yet.
Right now, right under their noses.
Lan Zhengqing brazenly launched a sneak attack on Lin Fan, attacking without a word, and with an intent to kill!
This was an attempt to completely annihilate Lin Fan!
To wipe him out from the Five Elents Realm!
This was unlike the image Lan Zhengqing had maintained all along. Even when he ordered the death of soone, he was always calm, never rushing, regardless of the situation.
However now, that image was completely overturned.
By an ant from the Suru Continent, he had completely torn off his mask, revealing his true self.
The exiles suddenly realized that the current Lan Zhengqing was perhaps the real Lan Zhengqing, and the one they knew before was rely a facade, not a real person.
All the people present felt a chill, their scalps tingled.
Thinking back to Lan Zhengqing’s forr deanor, they trembled inside.
Whizz!
Lan Zhengqing erged from the blinding white of the falling snow, delivering a fierce punch at Lin Fan.
A blue light erupted around him.
Dazzling and radiant!
The void shuddered violently, compressing under his pressure, even the air beca thinner.
"Yin Ming Kill?!"
Lin Fan was not flustered, as he already knew Lan Zhengqing would make a move.
He knew Lan Zhengqing’s true nature, so he expected him to react with rage and attempt to kill him.
But.
He didn’t expect Lan Zhengqing to use such a vicious and brutal move.
It wasn’t a move that a prince of the Water Clan would use!
How is this possible?
A black question mark popped up in Lin Fan’s mind, his brows knitted tightly, his eyes sharp as knives.
"Be careful, Xiao Fan Fan!"
Emperor Jade jumped out again, shouting anxiously.
As soon as his words fell.
Not even a fraction of a breath had passed!
The void in front of Lin Fan was torn open, nurous rotten, bloody hands stretched out from the rift, reaching for Lin Fan, as if trying to seize control of him.
Lin Fan didn’t dare to hesitate.
Instant Escape!
He leaped into the sky, drawing the Xuanyuan Sword, gripping it with both hands, and slashed down.
Boom!
A mighty force surged toward the torn void.
The Xuanyuan Sword’s golden light burst forth, instantly suppressing the blinding blue glow from earlier.
Crackling!
The Sword Qi from the Xuanyuan Sword scattered, cutting apart the hands stretching from the void rift, scattering them all over the ground.
Strangely enough!
The mont those severed hands hit the ground, they instantly turned into black smoke.
They were buried by the snow, dissipating into the whiteness.
Lin Fan landed gracefully, holding the Xuanyuan Sword horizontally in front of him, staring coldly forward.
The rift in the void ahead had vanished, as had the terrifying hands.
But.
Also missing.
Was Lan Zhengqing!
What?!
Lin Fan sensed sothing amiss, the tense atmosphere in the air still hadn’t dissipated, as if countless blades hung over his head, giving him a chill down his spine.
The next second!
Without warning!
A cold light flashed through his mind, as if struck by electricity, his body beca paralyzed, his limbs cold.
Not good!
He shouted internally, whipping around to look toward Qiu Xi.
Sure enough!
The attack on him by Lan Zhengqing had been a feint.
His real target was actually Qiu Xi!
Lan Zhengqing, shocked and confused by Lin Fan’s leap of two Great Realms, understood clearly inside!
Even leaving Lin Fan alive made no difference.
After all.
Lin Fan was from the Suru Continent, and the people of the Five Elents Realm were always xenophobic, looking down on those from Suru, they wouldn’t believe Lin Fan.
No matter what Lin Fan did, no matter how much truth he spoke.
To the people of the Five Elents Realm, Lan Zhengqing was the one truly worth trusting, so they ignored Lin Fan’s protests.
At least.
To those in the Five Elents Realm, Lin Fan was just making trouble.
But Qiu Xi was different.
Although she was rely an insignificant exile, akin to Lin Fan in status, perhaps even lower.
Qiu Xi had done too much for Lan Zhengqing.
And every action was connected to the people of the Five Elents, so even involved influential figures among the Five Major Clans.
If Qiu Xi started talking, even if no one wanted to believe an exile, once things lined up, the skeptics might begin to harbor doubts.
Even the most foolish in the Five Elents Realm would sense sothing was off.
Once a seed of doubt is planted in soone’s heart, it will take root and grow, staying there indefinitely, unless the doubt is completely dispelled.
Or.
Unless the seed was never planted.
Which ans.
If Qiu Xi was killed, the seed of doubt would be obliterated, never to appear in the hearts of the Five Elents people again.
Qiu Xi knew too much, so she had to die.
Earlier he thought Qiu Xi was dead, distracted by Lin Fan’s loud commotion outside, he failed to check Qiu Xi’s status thoroughly, giving Lin Fan a chance to act.
This ti, using diversion, he was determined to kill Qiu Xi.
No room for failure!
Lin Fan could live, but Qiu Xi must not!
Compared to Lin Fan,
Qiu Xi posed a threat a thousand, ten thousand tis greater!
Therefore.
He used a decoy move to deal with Lin Fan, buying ti while he moved towards Qiu Xi to put the already dying Qiu Xi to death, ensuring his own peace of mind.
"Qiu Xi! To my surprise, you’re still alive, this is too unexpected. I didn’t plan to make you suffer, but I must. You know too much, and now, I can no longer trust you."
"So I must kill you!"
The blue glow around Lan Zhengqing was mixed with impurities, turning the once clear blue into a murky, dirty hue, deepening into sothing like blue ink, chaotic and filthy!
All the exiles’ eyes popped wide, unable to believe their ears.
This was an admission straight from Lan Zhengqing!
"Did Young Master Lan... did Young Master Lan make a move?"
"I don’t believe it..."
"How is this possible..."
"How could Young Master Lan kill... Qiu Xi?"
"This is too surprising!"
"What on earth happened?!"
"My head hurts! It hurts so much!"
"Can anyone tell why this is happening?!"
The exiles were nearly driven mad, having returned hoping to seek refuge with Lan Zhengqing, only to find him in such a state, how could they not be devastated.
Moreover.
They didn’t realize that if Qiu Xi died, Lan Zhengqing’s next target would be them!
