Chapter 840: Master

Proofreader: Papatonks

Knowing the result, Xiao Yunshan was ready get some distance since any choice Zhuo Fan made would give him this chance.

He would get away from the brat and then use the huge sword energy to gain the upper hand.

Zhuo Fan’s savage right hand once again came into play, out of his expectations. The guy was determined to block the sword while having a weird grin on his face.

Xiao Yunshan was uneasy, watching as the sword energy and the right hand made contact. The attack went through Zhuo Fan, tearing him to pieces and then to nothing.

Xiao Yunshan rushed to move away, looking puzzzled.

[W-what’s going on here? His punch should block my Heaven-reaching Sword so why didn’t it now? He was destroyed in a second.]

[Did he use up all his energy?]

Xiao Yunshan looked around to see the audience was overjoyed.

“High Venerable is amazing! He killed the kid in an instant. That’s our Heaven Trailing Sect’s guardian!”

“As long as High Venerable is around, Heaven Trailing Sect fears no one!”

“High Venerable has grown again, a blessing for our sect, ha-ha-ha… “

Ren Xiaoyun bobbed his head in total agreement. It felt off how Zhuo Fan got done in just now, but it also made sense in a way.

The first time Zhuo Fan blocked High Venerable’s attack, he had time to prepare and inspect it. Even so, it was still tough. But now, High Venerable having unleashed the same destructive attack so close, Zhuo Fan had a lapse in attention that proved to be fatal. 

Death would come from just one strike in a battle of experts.

Xiao Yunshan was in total disagreement. Having witnessed Zhuo’s calm and weird smile, he knew for a fact that wasn’t a suicidal one.

Xiao Yunshan felt uneasy when he recalled it and his feeling only grew stronger.

“High Venerable is amazing! Sir has earned the greatest merit in fighting off the enemy attack. Please receive my and all our elders’ respect!” Barely getting on his feet, Ren Xiaoyun looked grave, giving Xiao Yunshan a deep bow, with the rest following after him.

Giving an annoyed wave, Xiao Yunshan was feeling restless…

Whoosh!

A sharp cry came from behind followed by an icy bloodthirst. Startled, he looked back to see a pitch-black blade in his face.

Caught by surprise, Xiao Yunshan worked on instinct, raising two fingers to stab with Yuan Qi.

Pff!

The fingers flew before Xiao Yunshan, seeing Zhuo Fan’s weird grin in front of him, “Xiao Yunshan, you got soft.” 

Xiao Yunshan’s brow shook, feeling pain from below. What he saw made him sigh.

He had ended up just like the other Soul Harmony experts, cut in two.

The black sword had cut through his belly and his soul.

“Double Dragon Manor’s divine weapon, Vaulting Sword!” Xiao Yunshan had blood coming from his mouth, yet he looked quite calm.

Zhuo Fan nodded, “You’re going about what killed you when you’re already dead?”

“Ha-ha-ha, of course, since the Heaven-reaching Sword was gleaned while training in Double Dragon Manor. I had the chance to stand a hundred meters from this divine weapon and sense its aura. While I don’t know its current aura, I can tell it from its appearance.”

Xiao Yunshan smiled, “My skill can block any spiritual weapon for some time, with just this divine weapon able to cut it.”

Zhuo Fan said, “Your power and heart are high and I wouldn’t have won if not for trickery. You’re no ordinary Soul Harmony expert. I didn’t want to kill you either, but you’re shielding Heaven Trailing Sect and have killed my master. I could never let you go.”

“Ha-ha-ha, I know that as well.”

Xiao Yunshan smiled, “I shouldn’t fight you as you’re my old friend’s disciple. But with your strength and coming to destroy my sect, I had to do it to avoid its demise. We each have our reason to kill the other, just that you came out on top and I lost. That’s all there is to it. Though I’m curious about one thing, what just happened?”

Sensing he was close to the end, Zhuo Fan humored him, “I have a lot of great skills and one of them is capable of setting up a space and creating an illusion. What you have cut was just my illusion while I hid in that space. I waited for you to be consumed by this strange event and struck when your guard was down.”

“I see, so there’s a strange skill like that in the world.”

Xiao Yunshan looked white, looking at Zhuo Fan through a haze, “Such a skill had never been seen in western lands. I’m sure that the whole world hasn’t one user, especially that old man. Although he said you’re his disciple, who is your true master?”

Zhuo Fan pondered his hopeful gaze, “Elder Yuan is my master in Dao that I respect and admire, while the master that passed on his skills to me is someone else. He is a reclusive expert. I don’t know if he’s dead or alive, but I’m sure he’s very strong, stronger than anyone in these lands, already in the Genesis Stage. Everything is nothing more than an ant to him.”

“He’s better than the central area’s Invincible Sword…”

“Invincible? Humph, only an ignorant fool would call himself that.” Zhuo Fan mocked, “Even when that master can flick him to death, he still won’t proclaim himself invincible.”

Xiao Yunshan shook and sighed, “This is fate. With such a strong master, why did we even go to offend you? Even if you die, your master would come for revenge. Western lands wouldn’t be able to stop him and the sect would perish. I had given my all and have no regrets. Old man, I lost to your disciple. You should rest now…”

Spewing blood, Xiao Yunshan’s eyes lost their light as he fell.

“High Venerable!”

The elders below were shocked. Their protector, High Venerable, was dead…

Everyone was by themselves with fear as they watched the lone figure in the air.

How could they let Xie Wuyue’s twisted words entice them and bring about such calamity?

Zhuo Fan looked coldly at the body on the ground and sighed. None of them wanted to fight, but their position made it impossible to avoid a clash.

[Life is so frustrating.]

After this frustration, what he loved the most was sending these bastards to hell! 

Zhuo Fan’s eyes shone and turned on Ren Xiaoyun’s group with a twisted smile. The victims shook in terror…

A month later, Blackwind Mountain was packed with people, as well as three new familiar faces, Chu Qingcheng, Ye Lin and Wu Qingqiu.

Luo Yunhai saw that everyone was here and began, “People, everyone should be familiar with Edifice Lord Chu. She now represents Double Dragon Manor and has come to investigate the recent sect destructions. The other two are Ultimate Clarity Sect’s senior brothers Wu Qingqiu and Ye Lin!”

Everyone bowed in respect and caution. None from superior-three sects could be offended, especially from Double Dragon Manor.

“There’s no need for courtesy. We only came to ask some questions. Just think of us as guests.”

Wu Qingqiu was quite respectful, “After our investigation of the Demon Scheming Sect and Mystical Heaven Sect, we found not a soul alive yet also no traces. The more people there are, the more clues there should be. While the less there are, the more powerful they had to be. As we have nothing to go on as of now, we could only ask the help of the greatest faction closest to the two sects, the Luo Alliance.”

Everyone jerked, “Are you suspecting us?”

Pff!

The sudden outburst got everyone to turn to Ye Lin.

“Ha-ha-ha, sorry, but have some self-respect. None of us are fools here. You’re the last suspects if you ever were, especially with your strength.” Ye Lin mocked, earning angry glares.  

[We may be weaker than you, but are you looking down on us by voicing it?]

Chu Qingcheng mediated, “Sorry, everyone, he’s always so rude. Don’t mind him. We only came to understand something. Who knows where Zhuo Fan’s master is?”
