Chapter 468 Arrogant Young Masters (2)
Both Lin Fan and Mo Ze Chen knitted their brows when they heard this.
They had met people that were arrogant before, but they had never met anyone as arrogant as this. Not to mention that this person was much weaker than Lin Fan and was only a bit stronger than Mo Ze Chen.
To put it simply, he just didn't have the ability to be this arrogant towards Lin Fan and Mo Ze Chen.
The thing was that Lin Fan had the aura of a Fragmented Soul Realm Expert and Mo Ze Chen was only in the low Embryo Soul Realm which was lower in cultivation compared to this young man who was in the high Embryo Soul Realm.
So the young man was mistaken as to how he compared to the two of them.
This young man was actually one of the rising stars that had his eyes on a position in the Decagram and he was recognized as one that would be joining them eventually, so he always thought that others were below him. Other than recognizing the ten people in the Decagram and a few of his rivals, all other people were not worthy of his attention.
That was how he had developed this kind of arrogant attitude which made him talk down to everyone else.
It also helped that he had a powerful organization that was behind him, one that was almost on par with any of the twelve great factions. No one was willing to mess with someone that had this kind of organization behind him if they didn't need to, so most of the time they yielded to him.
For this young man named Gui Feng, it was just the way the world was naturally.
It was too bad that he had kicked a steel plate while meeting Lin Fan today.
Lin Fan just gave a cold snort and turned to leave.
Mo Ze Chen revealed an awkward look since he was the one that had approached Gui Feng's group first, so it was his face that was being thrown away, but he still chose to follow Lin Fan in the end. If his face wasn't a bit thick, he wouldn't have come up to Lin Fan in the first place.
Seeing that they were ignoring him and leaving, Gui Feng immediately revealed an angry look as he came forward and said, "What do you think you're doing? I'm asking you a question here!"
But even though he said this, neither Lin Fan or Mo Ze Chen turned to give him any attention. It was like they were dealing with a child that was throwing a tantrum, they had completely ignored him.
Seeing that they didn't pay him any mind, Gui Feng was filled with rage from being shamed like this and he didn't hesitate as he raised his palm to send an attack at Lin Fan.
It was hard for Lin Fan to miss this with the large amount of energy gathering behind him, so he was already prepared. With a single turn on his heel, he neatly avoided the palm attack that was aimed at his back.
Gui Feng was surprised when he saw this, but as an expert, he was naturally able to quickly react to this. As soon as he saw that his first attack missed, Gui Feng raised his other hand and prepared to send a barrage of palm attacks at Lin Fan.
It was too bad that Lin Fan didn't give him this chance as he used the momentum of his spin to fly out at Gui Feng.
With a single sweep of his sword, Gui Feng's eyes were open wide as his head had been separated from his body. It turned twice in the air before landing in the arms of one of the girls that followed him.
The girls were also Soul Realm Experts, but they were just simple followers of Gui Feng and didn't actually have any real combat abilities. They had only reached the Soul Realm by following Gui Feng and receiving pills from him, so when it came to fighting, they were much weaker than normal experts.
When the girl looked down to see Gui Feng's wide eyes, she paused for a second before screaming and throwing the head into the air. The head spun another time before landing in the arms of another one of these girls, who also screamed out and threw the head.
This head was thrown around like a hot potato until it was finally dropped onto the ground.
The girls didn't know what to do, but then they remembered that Lin Fan was still there.
He had been standing there watching the girls freak out like this, but once they remembered that he was still there, he immediately swept out with his sword. Without a single warning, the heads of all four girls were cut off and dropped to the ground along with their headless corpses.
Lin Fan normally would have left these girls alive, but it was different this time since they had seen what he had done.
Mo Ze Chen came over and looked at Gui Feng's corpse. After finding a token, he had a good idea of who this person was. Mo Ze Chen was someone who relied on information and relationships to get what he wanted since most of these ruins were occupied by large forces. He had memorized most of the famous geniuses from these forces and it wasn't hard for him to recognize Gui Feng.
Just like everyone else, he was worried about the force that was behind Gui Feng because they really weren't pushovers…
Mo Ze Chen turned to Lin Fan and asked, "Boss, what…"
Lin Fan raised his hand and said, "Nothing happened."
Mo Ze Chen turned to look at the corpses on the ground before turning back to Lin Fan with a nod.
This was the main reason why Lin Fan had also killed the girls, he needed to silence the witnesses.
Currently they were in these ruins without contact with the outside world. As long as everyone who had seen what happened didn't talk or was dead, this matter would never be known. All that people outside would think was that Gui Feng had died to something inside the ruins.
In the end, Lin Fan was justified because Gui Feng had attacked first, but the reason he killed him was because no matter how this ended, they would have offended Gui Feng. Instead of leaving an enemy for the future, it was better to kill him now.
They quickly looted the corpses and took everything valuable before heading off.
Only when they were away from the body did they finally slow down.
Lin Fan hadn't been able to get the answer that he wanted from Gui Feng, but that didn't matter since there were plenty of other people to get the answer from.
With his spiritual sense, Lin Fan could sense the aura of several experts walking around this town, all heading towards the fountain in the center.
Lin Fan didn't know what had changed, but it seemed like something had changed in this realm and everyone had been allowed inside this tree.
Whether that was a good thing or not, it was hard to tell now, but Lin Fan was certain that everything would be more complicated.
But for now, the only thing that he had to do was head to the fountain that was right in the center since that was where everything started and where everything ended.
Once they approached they saw that there were already several groups that had gathered nearby, but not a single one of those groups approached. They all stood guard around the fountain, waiting for someone else to approach first.
After all, no one knew what the fountain in the middle was, the only thing that they did know was that it wasn't normal based on the golden glow that it had. Since they knew it wasn't normal, of course there must be some kind of treasure hidden there.
However, since there were all these people here as well, no one was willing to make a move first.
No one knew what kind of traps were hidden here and no one was willing to make the first move to let the others gain benefits from. This was what caused this scenario where all these various groups were waiting for all the other groups to make a move.
But Lin Fan and Mo Ze Chen didn't have time to wait for this, so they directly headed towards the fountain without caring about any of the groups that were camped around it.
When these people saw Lin Fan and Mo Ze Chen heading right through them to the fountain, they were surprised and hesitated, but in the end, they just allowed Lin Fan and Mo Ze Chen to make their way through their blockade.
However, that all completely changed when they saw that there weren't any traps that were triggered. It was like there was nothing guarding the fountain at all.
Since that was the case, how could they let Lin Fan and Mo Ze Chen take everything that they had already claimed as their own?
If they didn't make a move now, it would definitely be too late.
So without waiting any longer, all the groups waiting around the fountain looked at each other before running forward towards the fountain.
But none of them were able to match Xiao Feng's speed.
Lin Fan was the first to arrive at the fountain, but what he had found had surprised him.
