Chapter 1024
by 林方方Chapter 1024 You Are Not Happy
Tai Zhong was trembling all over, his face as pale as paper.
He looked at Fang Yu, unable to summon even a hint of resistance in his heart, only overwhelming fear!
He knew that if Fang Yu decided to kill him too, it would be nothing more than an afterthought.
At this moment, Fang Yu shifted his gaze toward Su Changge and walked over to him.
“He’s already dead,” Fang Yu said, looking at Bu Fan in Su Changge’s grasp.
At this point, Bu Fan’s eyes were still half-open, but there was no life left in them.
Obviously, he had died from too many wounds and blood loss.
This manner of death had certainly made him taste plenty of suffering.
Su Changge looked at Fang Yu with reddened eyes, unable to speak.
“Do you want to continue torturing him?” Fang Yu asked.
“…No more,” Su Changge said.
Tianlun Zhenren was dead, and Bu Fan was also dead, both in miserable states.
With Fang Yu’s help, Su Changge had fulfilled the promise he made to his master years ago, successfully making Tianlun Zhenren and Bu Fan pay the price they deserved.
“Then hand him over to me,” Fang Yu said, taking Bu Fan and tossing him backward.
Bu Fan’s corpse landed next to Tianlun Zhenren’s headless body.
“To prevent others from using strange methods to bring them back to life, it’s better to burn them directly.”
As Fang Yu spoke, he raised his right palm.
“Whoosh!”
A red-gold flame shot toward the two corpses, instantly burning fiercely.
“Sizzle…”
A chilling sound of burning flesh spread out.
In just a few seconds, the bodies of master and disciple, Tianlun Zhenren and Bu Fan, turned to ashes, disappearing forever from this world.
A deathly silence fell over the surroundings.
Whether it was Gong Sun Zhe or Tai Zhong, or the group of elite disciples behind them, all were pale and didn’t dare to breathe.
The Fang Yu before them… was indeed the great demon lord of legend.
His methods were too ruthless!
He had incinerated Tianlun Zhenren and Bu Fan to ashes in front of so many people, leaving no remains.
“Let’s go,” Fang Yu said to Su Changge.
But as he turned around, Fang Yu remembered something and looked at Tai Zhong, walking straight toward him.
Tai Zhong’s body tensed.
Fang Yu walked up to him and said expressionlessly, “You all know who I am. If you want to avenge Tianlun and Bu Fan, you can come find me anytime.”
“But don’t think about targeting the Shadow Gate.”
“Otherwise, for every person I catch, I will slaughter everyone connected to them.”
After speaking, Fang Yu patted Tai Zhong’s shoulder, glanced at Su Changge, and flew into the air, heading outside.
Tai Zhong stood frozen in place, sweat sliding from his forehead down his face.
“Thud.”
A moment later, Tai Zhong collapsed to the ground.
“Elder Tai Zhong, are you alright…” Gong Sun Zhe immediately crouched down and asked.
Tai Zhong’s eyes were wide open, still filled with fear.
And the group of elite disciples from Dragon-Slaying Pavilion behind them were even more shocked.
The highly respected Grand Elder, a powerful figure ranked thirteenth on the Sacred List, had been frightened to the point of collapsing on the ground by Fang Yu!
This kind of thing… they had never even dreamed of before.
At this moment, from among the elite disciples, a figure flashed out, rushing in the direction Fang Yu and Su Changge had left.
…
“Someone is following us,” Fang Yu stopped in mid-air and said.
Su Changge also stopped, and they both turned to look behind them.
A young man appeared before Fang Yu.
This person was Murong Jian, whom Fang Yu had casually saved earlier.
“What’s going on? Are you already trying to avenge Bu Fan?” Fang Yu asked.
Murong Jian looked at Fang Yu, cupped his hands and bowed, saying, “The person who saved my life at the Hundred Sects Competition and told me to surrender to save myself… was you, Lord Fang, wasn’t it?”
“It was me,” Fang Yu answered.
“Thank you for saving my life, Lord Fang,” Murong Jian said sincerely, bending at the waist.
“If there’s nothing else, we’ll be going now,” Fang Yu said.
“Please give me a chance to repay you, Lord Fang,” Murong Jian raised his head and said.
Hearing these words, Su Changge’s expression changed as he sensed a crisis.
Was this kid trying to compete with him for the position of chief follower?
“Lord Fang’s abilities are higher than the heavens, beyond what ordinary people can comprehend. Someone like him could easily pluck stars and the moon from the sky, so how could he need your repayment?” Su Changge raised an eyebrow and said.
“Though my power is meager, I must repay the kindness of saving my life,” Murong Jian said seriously.
“It’s fine. Lord Fang not only has extreme power, but his moral character is also as lofty as a sage’s. He does good deeds without seeking rewards. Your grateful heart is enough. Material repayment is unnecessary. Lord Fang’s heart is as vast as the sky and doesn’t care about such small matters…” Su Changge began rambling on.
Murong Jian looked at Su Changge with a somewhat dazed expression.
Fang Yu glanced at Su Changge, who immediately closed his mouth.
“I can’t think of anything for you to do right now. I’ll let you know when I come up with something,” Fang Yu said.
“Very well. Please leave me a way to contact you, Lord Fang,” Murong Jian said with cupped hands.
Fang Yu glanced at Su Changge again.
Su Changge immediately took out a piece of jade from his inner pocket and threw it to Murong Jian.
“This is a communication stone. Through it, you can easily contact me. Then I’ll take you to see Lord Fang,” Su Changge said.
“Alright,” Murong Jian accepted the jade and bowed again.
Fang Yu and Su Changge turned to leave.
Murong Jian bowed deeply toward Fang Yu’s departing figure.
…
Fang Yu and Su Changge quickly left the Great Western Forest and returned to their home in North Capital.
Sitting in a small pavilion in the center of the golden wheat field, Fang Yu looked at Su Changge in front of him and asked, “How do you feel now?”
Su Changge stood in front of the small pavilion, looked up at the sky, and said, “I’m wondering… if Master and Junior Sister could see what just happened.”
“If you believe they can see it, then they can,” Fang Yu said.
Su Changge nodded, looked at Fang Yu, and smiled, “As expected of Lord Fang, your words are so philosophical.”
Fang Yu looked at Su Changge without speaking.
When he fought with Tianlun Zhenren, he had been extremely harsh and cruel in his methods.
On one hand, he did it to give Su Changge satisfaction.
But on the other hand, there were also his own emotional factors.
Does killing someone reduce the pain in one’s heart?
At least for Fang Yu, it didn’t.
Even though he had destroyed the Purple Flame Palace, even though those remnants of the Purple Flame Palace died miserably… it still didn’t alleviate the pain in Fang Yu’s heart.
The Heavenly Dao Gate was ultimately gone.
Those disciples… were ultimately dead.
These outcomes would not change because of the destruction of the Purple Flame Palace.
So, Fang Yu could verbally console Su Changge.
But he couldn’t convince himself to believe this point.
The dead are dead, and they won’t know what happens afterward.
Their final moments must have been extremely painful.
Once you put yourself in their perspective, you would feel suffocated and desperate.
Fang Yu took a deep breath and looked out at the wheat field.
A gentle breeze blew, making the golden wheat sway slightly.
“Thud!”
At this moment, Su Changge suddenly knelt before Fang Yu.
“Lord Fang, from today on, my life is entirely in your control,” Su Changge said, prostrating himself on the ground. “Even if you ask me to climb a mountain of knives or dive into a sea of fire, I won’t even frown!”
“Alright, get up,” Fang Yu said.
Su Changge stood up, bowed to Fang Yu, and said, “Lord Fang, I want to release some emotions, please…”
“Go ahead,” Fang Yu said.
Su Changge walked out of the small pavilion and headed down the path through the wheat field.
As he walked, he raised his head and shouted loudly, “Master, Junior Sister… Lord Fang and I have avenged you! You must have seen it…”
Su Changge walked and shouted, tears flowing from his eyes down his cheeks.
“Ahhh…”
Reaching the edge of the wheat field, Su Changge took a deep breath and let out a hoarse roar, as if using all the strength in his body.
Fang Yu sat in the small pavilion, watching Su Changge’s back, a slight smile appearing on his face.
“Master, what’s wrong with him?”
Little Wind Chime suddenly appeared beside Fang Yu and asked.
“This is a way of seeking happiness,” Fang Yu answered.
“Can shouting like that make one happy? Why don’t you try it, Master?” Little Wind Chime asked curiously.
“Why should I try it?” Fang Yu asked in return.
“Because…” Little Wind Chime looked at Fang Yu, blinked her big eyes, and said, “I feel that you’re not happy either.”
