Chapter 435: Jiuzhou Nation Shaken!
Those insects didn’t even have time to scream before they were burned to ashes by Fang Yu.
Looking at the Earth Core Fire burning fiercely in the air, Fang Yu’s face remained expressionless.
At this moment, from the crater behind, Han Qi struggled to stand up.
His head had been stomped crooked, making him look particularly horrifying.
If he hadn’t drunk the blood of the Immortal Clan and had his physical body transformed, he would have been dead long ago!
Han Qi now only wanted to escape.
Only by surviving could he continue to fulfill his ambitions.
Han Qi forced his body to move, making hand signs to activate a teleportation technique.
If he could escape underground, he would be out of Fang Yu’s grasp!
Two seconds later, a circle of light appeared beneath Han Qi’s feet.
After the light circle appeared, Han Qi felt somewhat relieved.
In just one more second, he would be able to leave this place, and Fang Yu wouldn’t be able to catch him.
Now, he needed to think about how to deal with Fang Yu next.
This person was too powerful, so powerful that even the Immortal King’s treasure couldn’t suppress him.
“I can’t confront Fang Yu directly. To deal with him… I must approach from the mental level. If I could control someone close to him…”
With this thought, an image appeared in Han Qi’s mind.
Frost Palace, Su Lengyun!
If he could control her, Fang Yu would have no choice but to surrender!
As this idea emerged, Han Qi already had a complete plan in mind.
The light circle beneath his feet grew brighter.
Spatial energy enveloped Han Qi’s body, preparing to teleport him away.
But at that moment, a terrifyingly powerful true energy struck down from above Han Qi’s head!
“Boom!”
By this time, the array beneath Han Qi’s feet had already activated. He had no time to respond and was instantly hit by the blast of true energy!
The light flashed, and everything within the circle was teleported away.
A second later, a light circle appeared in front of a cave deep underground.
The light flashed, but no one appeared.
On the ground, there were many dismembered limbs and pieces, along with black-red blood.
Inside the cave, a pair of eyes suddenly opened, emitting a terrifying red light.
“Fang Yu… the day I return to the surface will be the day of your death!”
…
Fang Yu landed on the ground, looking at the mess around him, feeling displeased.
That one-third of the Nascent Soul was now gone.
Today he could have broken through to the fourth layer, leaving only twelve layers until reaching the ten-thousandth layer of Qi Refinement!
Even killing Han Qi and Ye Zhennan couldn’t make up for these two levels of cultivation.
“Sigh.” Fang Yu sighed, looking around.
Hundreds of representatives from various families and sects of Huaibei all looked at him as if gazing upon a deity.
Fang Yu slowly walked toward the crowd.
The group consciously opened a path for him.
The Chen family members now had pale faces, collapsed on the ground, trembling all over.
They had watched helplessly as Chen Luo was severely injured by Fang Yu and then died, yet they could do nothing! They could only witness everything happening, like bystanders!
The root cause of this situation was that the gap in cultivation between the other family members and Chen Luo was too great!
Besides Chen Luo, their family only had two Martial Monarchs and ten Grandmasters.
If even Chen Luo was no match for Fang Yu, rushing in would be equivalent to suicide for them.
They were well aware of what happened to the Zheng family.
The Chen family absolutely could not repeat that tragedy!
Therefore, the Chen family members not only watched Chen Luo die before their eyes, but they didn’t even dare to make too much noise, fearing they might attract Fang Yu’s attention!
Lu Wanrong had already cried until she fainted, while Chen Nansheng sat blankly on the ground, his eyes dull.
Among the Chen family members, only Chen Yi showed no sign of grief on his face.
He looked at Fang Yu with only fear in his eyes, his face bloodless.
But in his heart, he felt somewhat secretly pleased!
Chen Luo was dead!
For other Chen family members, this was absolutely bad news.
But for Chen Yi, this was wonderful news!
No more seeing that arrogant handsome face, no more being treated like a dog!
From today onward, he, Chen Yi, would no longer be suppressed by anyone!
And in the distant crowd, Han Tianyu and Han Xiao were equally pale.
Especially Han Tianyu, whose legs were trembling, almost collapsing to the ground.
Watching his own brother die before his eyes… yet unable to make a sound, the feeling was truly desperate.
Beside him, Han Xiao’s eyes were red, but he knew he couldn’t speak up.
He had just contacted Grand Elder Han Tianci, who was so angry he smashed the table, demanding: “How did Han Qi get out? How could he go out at such a time!? Something must have happened!”
At this moment, Han Xiao recalled Han Qi’s face, half covered with black patterns.
“The black patterns… Han Qi’s mind was being controlled! It must be so! Try to contact Han Qi, I’ll get there as soon as possible…” Han Tianci instructed.
But events developed far faster than imagined.
Before Han Xiao could find a way to contact Han Qi, Fang Yu had already walked out of that prison and killed Han Qi!
Recalling the scene of Fang Yu stomping Han Qi down from mid-air, Han Xiao felt a chill throughout his body.
…
Fang Yu walked back to Qin Lang.
By now, Zhao Xuan’s gaze toward Fang Yu was completely different from before.
He even wanted to kneel down and kowtow to Fang Yu!
He had originally thought Fang Yu was just a privileged young master from Yan City.
But now it seemed that Fang Yu was a god, regardless of status!
At this moment, Zhao Xuan suddenly recalled what Qin Lang had said earlier.
The reason Fang Yu had confronted Chen Luo was to prevent his sister Zhao Zinan from being married off…
If this was true, did Fang Yu have feelings for his sister?
Zhao Xuan’s mind raced, and he immediately pulled forward Zhao Zinan, who was still in a daze behind him.
“Quickly thank Young Master Fang for his help,” Zhao Xuan said.
Zhao Zinan came to her senses, looked at Fang Yu before her, her cheeks flushing red, and immediately bowed, saying softly: “Young Master Fang… thank you.”
Fang Yu looked puzzled, not understanding what Zhao Zinan was thanking him for.
Zhao Zinan raised her head, staring directly into Fang Yu’s eyes, her clear pupils sparkling like stars.
Fang Yu was in a bad mood and didn’t want to say anything.
He glanced at Qin Lang and said, “Let’s go.”
“Mm.” Qin Lang nodded, and the two left the Chen family under the gaze of hundreds of people.
“Hey, did you notice… those two who ambushed Fang Yu seemed to be Han Qi from the Han family, and the other one looked like the mysterious head of the Ye family, Ye Zhennan!”
At this moment, someone in the crowd exclaimed in shock.
…
“Sigh.”
On the way back, Fang Yu sighed several times.
At first, seeing Fang Yu’s extremely poor expression, Qin Lang didn’t dare to ask.
But later, Qin Lang couldn’t help himself and asked, “Master Fang, you’ve already defeated Chen Luo, why are you still sighing?”
Fang Yu glanced at Qin Lang and said, “Do you think victory is worth celebrating?”
“Uh…” Qin Lang was momentarily speechless.
“I wanted to obtain something from Chen Luo, but before I could fully extract it, Chen Luo died, so I feel terrible,” Fang Yu said.
“I see…” Qin Lang suddenly understood.
But soon he became confused again.
What could someone as powerful as Fang Yu possibly need from Chen Luo?
However, Qin Lang didn’t ask this question.
The car slowly drove into the southern district of the city.
“Master Fang, those two who attacked you later were…” Qin Lang asked again.
“Han Qi and Ye Zhennan… no, I should say the Immortal Clan,” Fang Yu said.
“Immortal Clan?” Qin Lang frowned, another term he had never heard before.
“I don’t know much about them either, but they’ve thoroughly angered me now,” Fang Yu said, his eyes cold.
Once I break through the remaining twelve layers, even if they hide in the center of the earth, I’ll drag that damn Immortal King out and beat him up! Fang Yu thought to himself.
…
On this day, the entire martial arts world of the Nine Provinces Nation was shaken!
The newly risen Martial Saint Chen Luo was immediately defeated by someone named Fang Yu, and died!
The name Fang Yu, following the incident at Moon Heart Lake in Jiangnan several months ago, once again shocked the Nine Provinces Nation!
Compared to the last time, the impact was even greater! Even the martial arts world in the remote northwestern region received the news.
Defeating a Martial Saint! What incredible power!
It was said that this Fang Yu was still very young, appearing to be around twenty years old!
The entire martial arts world of the Nine Provinces Nation was buzzing about Fang Yu.
But soon, many martial artists discovered something.
After Chen Luo ascended to Martial Saint, he ranked twentieth on the Divine Ranking.
Yet Fang Yu, who defeated Chen Luo, hadn’t appeared on the Divine Ranking!
What was going on?
The Divine Ranking wasn’t a man-made list, but a magical treasure! It had been passed down for many years and was still in use today!
Its assessment of strength was very accurate, and it updated quickly.
When powerful figures on the Divine Ranking fought, the outcome directly affected their ranking positions!
Logically, since Fang Yu killed Chen Luo, he should at least take Chen Luo’s position.
But in fact, after Chen Luo’s death, his twentieth position was filled by the original twenty-first ranked person.
Fang Yu’s name still hadn’t appeared on the Divine Ranking.
Could it be that Fang Yu wasn’t his real name? Or was Fang Yu’s power level beyond what the Divine Ranking could measure?
There were even more exaggerated theories.
Fang Yu wasn’t human!?
On this day, various explanations emerged one after another.
By nightfall, the Sky Watching Bureau of Yan City, responsible for managing the Divine Ranking, provided an explanation.
“Fang Yu’s cultivation level is only at the Innate Realm. According to regulations, he cannot enter the Divine Ranking.”
After this statement was released, the martial arts world of the Nine Provinces Nation completely exploded!
