"Qinghan..."
Lin Fan witnessed this, a bit stunned that Su Qinghan would humble herself to plead for him.
In his mory, Su Qinghan had always been cold and proud, like an aloof snow lotus standing alone in the biting cold—solitary and looking down on everyone. When had she ever begged soone like this?
’It seems my nominal wife isn’t completely indifferent to after all.’
A smile touched the corner of Lin Fan’s lips. He felt a sense of relief, and also a strange satisfaction. Then, his gaze sharpened, and he said in a clear voice, "Qinghan, you don’t have to bow and beg for ..."
However, before he could finish his sentence, Jiang Lan’s indifferent voice cut him off. "Kill him."
The expression on Lin Fan’s face froze.
Su Qinghan’s expression also froze. Her delicate hand, clutching Jiang Lan’s sleeve, turned white from the force of her grip.
At that mont, a wave of humiliation far greater than before washed over her, and her mind instantly went blank.
"Miss Su, just how much is your reputation worth?"
"I may have so interest in you, but don’t forget, you were just trying to assassinate ."
"We haven’t settled that score yet."
Jiang Lan looked at her, his tone still unhurried.
It sounded as if he were kindly explaining things to her.
Yet, these words, so indifferent they were devoid of any emotional ripple, made Su Qinghan’s beautiful face turn pale, drained of all color.
Jiang Lan’s attitude had indeed softened just a mont ago, but she had forgotten that this man was never a good person...
’What was I even hoping for?’
Hearing Jiang Lan ntion the word "assassination"...
Bitterness and helplessness welled up in Su Qinghan’s heart.
If she tried to explain to everyone that this so-called "assassination" was just a show directed by Jiang Lan himself, would anyone believe her?
She might even be slapped with an additional charge of slander.
Before a behemoth like the Pri Minister’s Mansion, the Su Family had no right to resist.
Lin Fan watched coldly as the n charged at him, an astonishing Sword Intent suddenly emanating from his body.
Faintly, a weak light seed to glow from his cheekbones.
Within his Sea of Consciousness, the phantom of an ancient Divine Sword erged, shrouded in a radiant mist. Its brilliant sword light dispelled the darkness, ready to erupt.
BOOM!!!
The next mont, a shockingly powerful aura suddenly erupted from the center of the courtyard, sending the group of Patrol Guards charging at Lin Fan flying.
A simple yet vast sword shadow, glowing with divine light and surging with radiance, seed to be veiled in mist as it flashed past.
Lin Fan stood tall and straight as a sword. Though he still looked disheveled, his gaze had regained its calm and composure.
"I will rember the humiliation of this day."
He swept a cold gaze over Jiang Lan, who still looked on with great interest, and left him with this threat, planning to use the Eternal Damnation Sword from his past life to break through the Void and leave.
This was his greatest reliance and his ultimate trump card.
But now he had no choice. If he were captured and his cultivation sealed, even his secret of being the Eternal Damnation Sword Master in his past life might be exposed.
He was unwilling to use his trump card unless it was a critical mont.
After all, it ant he would be plunged into a state of weakness for a long ti to co.
But this Jiang Lan was truly detestable. Relying on his background and the strength of his subordinates, he not only acted improperly toward Su Qinghan but also humiliated him in this manner.
If he didn’t use his trump card, he would likely die a miserable death here today.
’To think that I, a grand Eternal Damnation Sword Master who once looked down upon all realms and oversaw the world, have been reduced to fleeing for my life like a stray dog. How utterly laughable.’
"Breaking through the Void?"
Sensing the ripples in the Void and the feeling of it shattering, even Zhao Tianhe, the strongest expert here, couldn’t help but show a change in expression.
In the current Nine Provinces Land, only those at the Eighth Realm Tribulation Bridge Realm possessed the ability to traverse the Void with their physical bodies.
Without relying on an external object, even he couldn’t do it.
But Lin Fan was only at the Second Realm, yet he could open the Void to escape. This ant he definitely carried so kind of mysterious and powerful treasure.
BUZZ!!!
Lin Fan ignored everyone’s shocked and astonished expressions as he stepped into the air.
The Void cracked open before him, revealing a blurry expanse of thick mist. A powerful and terrifying astral wind howled out, threatening to blow a person to dust.
’I knew there was sothing strange about this guy.’
Watching this, Ying, who stood with his saber held horizontally, had a grim expression.
He, of course, also possessed a treasure capable of breaking through the Void, but it was a gift from the Pri Minister and was extrely precious.
He could only use it to help Jiang Lan escape when he encountered a life-threatening danger that was truly impossible to resolve otherwise.
This Lin Fan was rely a live-in son-in-law of the Su Family, yet he possessed such a powerful treasure. It was enough to show that his origins were anything but simple.
’This man’s background is likely tied to many other matters. His attempt to assassinate the Young Master couldn’t have been without reason...’ he thought, inwardly shocked.
Jiang Lan’s eyes narrowed slightly. He then suddenly took sothing from his robes and asked with a faint smile, "Ying, can you keep him here?"
"This is..."
Ying looked over and couldn’t help but tremble.
The object in Jiang Lan’s hand was a small, simple wooden box. A faint but powerful aura emanated from within it, causing even Zhao Tianhe, who was standing so distance away, to feel a tremor of apprehension.
As the wooden box opened, layer after layer of Restriction Runes flashed by. Suddenly, a blazing light erged, dazzling and brilliant.
A flawless, round, and crystalline jade stone lay quietly inside, as serene as the deep sea.
A faint, pale blue aura, like a cold mist, seed to swirl around it.
With the appearance of this jade stone, the temperature of the entire area seed to drop significantly.
