49: Chapter 49 Slander
“Chu Fengmian, the old man has discovered why your strength has skyrocketed so rapidly now!
It turns out you’ve been possessed by a demon!
Your disguise was good, but unfortunately, you couldn’t escape the old man’s watchful eyes.”
The Law Enforcent Elder looked at Chu Fengmian and suddenly spoke out in anger.
His words imdiately caused an uproar in the spectator stands.
Possessed by a demon!
This was a legend from ancient tis on the continent, where it was said that so martial artists changed their temperant overnight and increased their strength trendously, precisely because they were possessed by a demon.
Now that the Law Enforcent Elder ntioned this, countless disciples of the Lin Manor all turned their gazes towards Chu Fengmian.
Indeed, Chu Fengmian had changed overnight in both temperant and strength, which closely resembled the rumors of demonic possession.
“No wonder Chu Fengmian’s strength has progressed so rapidly, it turns out he has a demon inside him.”
“The Law Enforcent Elder has a keen eye for detail, and today this demon will be arrogant no more!”
Many disciples of the Lin Manor echoed in agreent.
“We request the Lord of the Manor take action, suppress this demon, and remove a great threat from the Lin Manor!”
“If we don’t kill this demon today, he will be a catastrophe in the future!”
Almost all of the Lin Manor disciples considered Chu Fengmian to be a demon after hearing the Law Enforcent Elder’s shout.
In their hearts, they couldn’t believe that the always useless Chu Fengmian could achieve such feats.
The words of the Law Enforcent Elder struck at their core, indeed, they would rather believe Chu Fengmian was possessed by a demon, which would explain his sudden strength.
“Possessed by a demon?”
Chu Fengmian looked at the Law Enforcent Elder with a mocking smile.
The Law Enforcent Elder really knows how to make excuses.
“What!
Chu Fengmian, are you denying it?”
The Law Enforcent Elder looked at Chu Fengmian and said coldly.
“You killed your fellow disciples and disrespected your elders, even if you aren’t possessed by a demon, you are a great demon yourself!”
“Killing you would be a righteous deed!”
The Law Enforcent Elder roared angrily.
“Is that so?
Since the Law Enforcent Elder thinks that Chu is possessed by a demon, then it would be contrary to this reputation if Chu did not act like a demon.”
Chu Fengmian’s eyes brimd with killing intent.
This was the first ti Chu Fengmian felt such strong intent to kill.
The Law Enforcent Elder twisted the truth, unable to differentiate right from wrong, and especially now, resorted to slandering Chu Fengmian after failing to overpower him with strength.
Such a person must not be left alive.
“Kill!”
A single word, laden with endless killing intent.
The mont the Law Enforcent Elder heard it, he felt a crushing wave of killing intent filling his mind, leaving his thoughts blank and his face stricken with horror.
Now Chu Fengmian possessed the ancient Dragon Blood lineage, his enraged killing intent alone was comparable to that of a real ancient battle dragon.
How could a re Law Enforcent Elder at the eightfold body tempering realm withstand it?
His face turned deathly pale, his body devoid of Spiritual Power, already seeing his end drawing near.
“Stop!”
Suddenly, a powerful surge of Spiritual Power blasted towards Chu Fengmian.
This surge of Spiritual Power was much stronger than that of the Law Enforcent Elder.
At the ninth layer of Body Forging Realm, the first figure in the Lin Clan’s public hierarchy, the clan leader finally made his move.
“What, does the clan leader also want to save Lin Shi?
Too bad even with your intervention, it can’t be done!”
Chu Fengmian’s gaze shifted, and he too sent a palm strike towards the Lin Clan Leader.
The clash of Spiritual Power resulted in Chu Fengmian being thrown backward, but he stood up again, completely unhard.
“Is this kid even human?
His muscles and bones, how can they be so resilient!”
The Law Enforcent Elder, seeing Chu Fengmian get up without a scratch, was visibly startled.
That palm strike from the Lin Clan Leader had no restraint; a blow that even he himself would suffer heavy injuries from, and possibly even have his arms shattered.
Yet, looking at Chu Fengmian getting up, it seed as if he didn’t have a single injury on his body.
This level of physical resilience was sowhat too excessive.
Chu Fengmian’s Dragon Blood lineage influenced not just his strength but also made his body increasingly resilient.
The ancient war dragons, with their bodies alone, could withstand strikes from heavenly Spiritual Artifacts.
Although Chu Fengmian was far from reaching this point, his physique was countless tis more resilient than that of a normal Martial Artist.
This palm strike had rely caused a slight tremor in his body, but did not harm the core of Chu Fengmian.
“It must be the possession of a demon!
How else could an ordinary Martial Artist possess such a terrifying body!”
“Indeed, please, Clan Leader, eradicate this demon once and for all, refine his soul!
May this demon never transcend in eternity!”
Many disciples of the Lin Clan began to shout loudly.
The Lin Clan Leader did not pay attention to those disciples.
He simply observed Chu Fengmian quietly and then spoke.
“Chu Fengmian, I am not an unreasonable man.
If you reveal your fortuitous encounter, whether you’re possessed by a demon, we can ascertain ourselves.”
The Lin Clan Leader looked at Chu Fengmian and spoke calmly.
“Just surrender your fortuitous encounter and teach us your movent technique, your swordsmanship, and everything else, to strengthen our Lin Clan!”
“Doing so, you will naturally clear yourself of any demonic possession, and from then on, how about you take a spot as an Elder in the Lin Clan?”
“Hand over the fortuitous encounter?”
Chu Fengmian’s gaze towards the Lin clan leader was filled with mockery.
They only wished to acquire the myriad of fortuitous encounters that Chu Fengmian possessed, cloaking their desire with a veneer of righteousness.
Now, Chu Fengmian was able to contend with the Lin Clan precisely because of such encounters, which were enough to cause concern for the clan.
If he truly disclosed them, he feared not needing others to act, as the Lin Clan Leader himself would be the first to kill Chu Fengmian.
Moreover, even if there were fortuitous encounters, they belonged to Chu Fengmian alone, having nothing to do with the Lin Clan.
“Dream on.”
Chu Fengmian spoke coldly, his voice brimming with mockery.
“Clan Leader, why haven’t you killed him yet?”
“Clan Leader, this brat is definitely a demon!
Keeping him is a disaster waiting to happen!”
Many disciples of the Lin Clan shouted righteously.
“Feng Mian, you should listen to the clan leader for once.”
The Third Elder moved swiftly, arriving on the Life and Death Platform, approaching Chu Fengmian from the side and whispering.
“It’s enough.
The Clan Leader’s strength far exceeds that of the Law Enforcent Elder.
With your current prowess, in a few years, you could naturally surpass him, but right now, you are not strong enough.”
“To step back now is the best course of action.”
The Third Elder was eagerly advising.
However, Chu Fengmian’s expression remained unchanged, except for a touch of warmth in his eyes when he looked at the Third Elder.
“Lin Clan, you need not concern yourself with this matter.”
Chu Fengmian looked at the Third Elder and shook his head.
