The entire place fell into a dead silence.
Everyone was as silent as cicadas in winter, their faces pale with fear, and no one dared to make a sound.
Even.
Their breathing halted.
Heartbeats stopped.
No one expected that Clan Leader Yi Shengtang had already made two moves, killing two people.
One was Yi Sheng, one of the five generals of Shennong, and the other was his brother Yi Shengmang.
Everyone was truly unprepared for such an action, and would never forget the scene before their eyes.
Like a nightmare.
It would forever follow like a shadow.
Clan Leader Yi Shengtang actually killed two of his own clan mbers for the sake of an outsider, making everyone afraid to utter a word, not even daring to look directly into the eyes of the Clan Leader.
Only Lin Fan, with a sneer, stared intently at Yi Shengtang.
Without fear.
Without panic.
Without surprise.
"Are you satisfied?"
In the midst of the dead silence, Yi Shengtang suddenly said coldly, his voice light yet chilling to the heart.
With a swish.
Everyone's eyes followed Yi Shengtang's line of sight and looked at Lin Fan in unison.
Who exactly is this Ninth Rank Saint Emperor?!
To face the Clan Leader of the Shennong Clan without fear, staying calm and composed.
And even forcing the Clan Leader to kill two important clan mbers.
This guy.
Must be from Hell!
Lin Fan should nod in agreent this ti, shouldn't he? The Shennong Clan lost two generals, shouldn't that satisfy him?
However.
Under everyone's watchful eyes, Lin Fan sneered and retorted, "Satisfied? Hmph, I'm not satisfied."
The whole place fell silent, breaths halted, everyone stupefied!
Not satisfied yet?!
This was a public rebuke of the Clan Leader, giving him no face at all.
Yi Shengtang's face imdiately fell, glaring at Lin Fan with a sinister expression, his cheeks twitching constantly.
"What, exactly, do you want?"
He spoke each word slowly, biting them out.
Lin Fan, calm and unhurried, said, "Don't you know what I want?"
"Could it be, you still want to kill Yi Tianqiu?!"
Yi Shengtang was furious, glaring at Lin Fan with bloodshot eyes.
"Isn't my purpose for coming here precisely for that? Otherwise, why would I appear here?"
"Don't push your luck!"
"Clan Leader, I ca here solely for Yi Tianqiu, it was your delays that caused all these events. Besides, Yi Sheng and Yi Shengmang weren't killed by , how can that be counted on , and how is that pushing my luck?" Lin Fan spoke with justification, having co solely to avenge Diwu Yun'er, from start to finish only holding Yi Tianqiu accountable, never involving others.
Now Yi Shengtang accuses him of pushing his luck, isn't it utterly ridiculous?!
Do they truly think two lives, Yi Sheng and Yi Shengmang, can be exchanged for Yi Tianqiu?!
Absurd!
Today, he must kill Yi Tianqiu!
Boom!
As Lin Fan finished speaking, a strong cyclone burst out from around him, forming a fierce and powerful wind that made everyone's eyes water, forcing them to stagger and retreat.
The violent and fierce aura made everyone's legs soft.
Even Clan Leader Yi Shengtang's face changed drastically, turning an iron blue without uttering a word. On the surface, he seed calm, but internally, he was already in chaos.
Lin Fan's erupting murderous intent far exceeded his imagination.
A fear from the depths of his soul overtook his mind.
A buzzing sound——
His mind went blank.
His pupils contracted suddenly, his body tightened like a drawn bow, and his throat dry and bitter.
Yi Siyu looked at the rampaging Lin Fan beside her, her eyes filled with complex emotions and her heart in chaos.
On one side was her brother, on the other, her lover.
A bloodline relative was wholeheartedly willing to use his life to exchange for the life of the other.
Yet her lover Lin Fan had saved her from danger ti and again.
Her heart was a mix of emotions.
She gently squeezed Lin Fan's palm.
A gentle, warm current passed through Lin Fan's arm, spreading throughout his body.
Lin Fan was startled and turned his head dumbly at Yi Siyu.
The terrifying aura suddenly disappeared.
The oppressive atmosphere enshrouding the main hall vanished in an instant.
"Brother Lin Fan..."
Before she finished speaking, Lin Fan interrupted her.
He seed to guess what Yi Siyu wanted to say, perhaps wanting to plead for Yi Tianqiu.
But it was useless.
The matter of executing Yi Tianqiu wouldn't change even if the Emperor himself ca.
Who would allow this beast to provoke his woman?!
"Siyu, my mind is made up, nothing you say will change my decision, Yi Tianqiu must pay for his actions."
However.
Yi Siyu rely smiled gently, innocently.
"Thank you, Brother Lin Fan."
It was as if an electric current passed through Lin Fan's body, leaving him montarily stunned.
Thank you?
Not a plea?
Lin Fan felt as though he misunderstood Yi Siyu, his expression dumbfounded and awkward.
"No matter what you do, I'll always support you."
Yi Siyu smiled sweetly, gripping Lin Fan's hand as if never intending to let go.
"But I..."
"It's okay... doing wrong ans bearing the consequences... I know this well..."
Yi Siyu lowered her head, avoiding Lin Fan's gaze.
After all.
The one Lin Fan wanted to kill was her own brother, leaving her understandably conflicted.
She feared that a glance at Lin Fan's eyes would make her impulsively plead.
And feared that a look from Lin Fan would reveal her reluctance.
Thus.
It was better to avoid eye contact, pretending not to understand the other's thoughts.
Lin Fan seed to understand Yi Siyu's aning too, sighed deeply, and gently said, "I'm sorry."
Yi Siyu's heart shuddered, just about to look up.
But the thought of avoidance imdiately flashed in her mind.
Ultimately.
She did not look into Lin Fan's eyes.
Lin Fan glanced at Yi Siyu with a heart full of tenderness, gently ruffling her and whispered.
"Wait for ."
Then.
Striding boldly to Yi Shengtang's front, expression suddenly turning malicious and brutal.
"Clan Leader, have you made your decision?"
The crowd was in an uproar!
Is this a threat to the Shennong Clan Leader?!
This guy may be formidable, but this is the territory of the Shennong Clan!
Is he truly unafraid of death?!
Yi Shengtang said nothing, his face ashen as he stared at Lin Fan.
His mind in turmoil.
If he truly surrendered Yi Tianqiu as Lin Fan demanded, wouldn't his dignity as Clan Leader be utterly compromised?
He looked at the pairs of eyes focused on him, burdened with the weight of being the Clan Leader.
"Still undecided? You sure are slow, I gave you a chance, and only I can cure her ailnt."
Yi Shengtang's heart sank.
The crowd exchanged glances, discussing with puzzled expressions.
"Who is she? What is Lin Fan talking about?"
"Why does the Clan Leader look so pale, could he be in Lin Fan's grasp?"
"Damn! This is too much, Lin Fan is humiliating us right on the head of the Shennong Clan."
"Who's sick? I haven't heard anything, anyone knows the scoop?"
Just when everyone was discussing animatedly.
Lin Fan suddenly held up three fingers, winking at Yi Shengtang.
"I'll give you only three seconds to decide. Delayed decisions won't be entertained."
"Also, even if you disagree, I must kill Yi Tianqiu, even if I have to oppose the entire Shennong Clan!"
"Three."
Lin Fan was outrageously arrogant, daring to extort the Clan Leader publicly.
"Two."
Everyone was ashen-faced and helpless.
"One."
With a swish, everyone turned to look at the Clan Leader.
"Alright!"
Yi Shengtang gasped deeply, cold sweat forming on his forehead.
