CHAPTER 285: CHAPTER 280 WEST EMPEROR ISLAND TAKES PEOPLE

In the separate courtyard where Li Fan was staying, a group of people was lighting a fire and roasting meat, the aroma wafting everywhere.

The Jiao Dragon was too large to finish in one meal, so after exhausting their cultivation, they continued to feast and nourish their energy and flesh.

"These guys are really..." In the distance, an elder at the Initial Stage of Condensed Core pointed at Li Fan’s courtyard, his eyes filled with envy and jealousy. He was also a Qi Cultivator living in this area. Had he known earlier, he would have befriended Li Fan.

This group of people eating dragon meat every day really evoked envy and jealousy.

However, they soon dismissed these thoughts, as a grand procession approached from afar; it was the people from the West Emperor Palace.

Eating meat and drinking were enjoyable, but life was more important.

Many others also came from afar to watch, eager to see the outcome of this event.

Li Fan and his group openly admitted to killing Song Boling and surprisingly did not flee, continuing to eat meat as if they owned the world, truly audacious.

"Song Siyu has indeed come."

"Beside her are the cultivators from the Law Enforcement team of the West Emperor Palace. Yang Qingshan is bound to face difficulties."

The crowd thought to themselves, as Nan Zhengchuan, the son of the Law Enforcement elder, was also present. He was pursuing the Heavenly Pride Girl of the Song Family, Song Siyu, and naturally seeking justice for Song Boling’s death; Yang Qingshan and the others would not be spared.

Soon the group arrived at the courtyard, standing in the air, Song Siyu glanced down at Li Fan and the others still eating meat and drinking wine without raising their heads, her expression as cold as ice.

"Yang Qingshan."

Song Siyu coldly rebuked. Li Fan took a big bite of meat, then looked up at Song Siyu, saying, "Miss Song, would you like to try some Jiao Dragon meat? It’s very nourishing."

"You killed Song Boling, then threatened the Song Family and took their treasure, Resurrection Jade Dew." Song Siyu ignored Li Fan’s words and coldly asked.

"Song Boling attempted murder and robbery, colluding with Old Demon Li, harming cultivators on the island, and trying to harm me. I killed him in defense, and as for the Resurrection Jade Dew, it was just using his own methods against him, dealing with him as he planned to deal with me." Li Fan smiled and said, "Miss Song is from the West Emperor Palace, leading the Law Enforcement team. I expect you will act justly."

"Recently, Han Qingzi was killed. It was said that you had a conflict with him before; was it also your doing?" Nan Zhengchuan beside Song Siyu asked Li Fan.

"Han Qingzi seized my Demon Core, gave me inferior treasures, and coveted my magical treasures on me. Relying on his pill master status, he and several Initial Stage of Condensed Core cultivators tried to kill me for my treasures. I killed them in defense." Li Fan calmly admitted, causing an uproar among the distant crowd.

So Han Qingzi was also killed by them.

That being the case, who knows how many good things Li Fan and his group had taken.

"You have repeatedly harmed cultivators and still dare claim innocence. Yang Qingshan, do you know your crime?" Nan Zhengchuan shouted fiercely, mana surging from his body, pressing down below.

Li Fan casually sat there, unmoved, continuing, "Others try to kill me, naturally I resist. What crime is there? Could it be that because of Miss Song’s relation to Song Boling, the West Emperor Palace is biased towards her, falsely accusing me?"

"Outrageous."

Nan Zhengchuan stepped forward, his aura even stronger, pressing down, "You’ve harmed cultivators, seized people’s magical treasures, and still bark here. The West Emperor Palace dictates the island’s rules, I can’t let you continue rampaging."

"You are unreasonable. Yang Qingshan has made it clear. When Song Boling colluded with Old Demon Li to hunt cultivators, where were you? When they hunted us, where were you? Are we supposed to wash our necks clean for Song Boling to kill?" Luo Qingyan also shouted, "I believe the West Emperor Palace would not enforce the law this way, or are you privately standing up for the Song Family?"

As Luo Qingyan spoke, she was very anxious. As a Loose Cultivator at the Initial Realm of Condensed Core, she couldn’t afford to offend the son of the Law Enforcement elder of the West Emperor Palace, figures she ordinarily couldn’t keep her head up in front of.

Yet for some reason, Li Fan’s indifference seemed to give her courage.

Having decided to follow Li Fan and just go all out.

Nan Zhengchuan looked at her contemptuously, ignoring her, then said to Li Fan, "Will you follow me to the West Emperor Palace or be disposed of on-site?"

"You..." Luo Qingyan’s eyes showed anger.

Li Fan withdrew his gaze, tore off a nice piece of meat, and handed it to Lu Yuan, "This meat’s quality is good."

"Thank you," Lu Yuan softly replied.

"Qing Qiu can have a piece as well," Li Fan gave Yue Qingqiu a piece of meat, intentionally ignoring Nan Zhengchuan, causing a ruthless gleam in Nan Zhengchuan’s eyes.

Nan Zhengchuan waved his hand, the people from the West Emperor Palace moved forward, but Li Fan continued to eat with his head down, speaking indifferently, "Now that the demons are preparing to attack the island, you have the mind to come here for personal vendettas, is it the intention of the West Emperor Palace or your own?"

"However, I believe none of you can represent the West Emperor Palace, so if this is your own intention, then think carefully before acting. If you strike, can you bear the consequences?"

The surrounding spectators heard Li Fan’s words and revealed meaning, such arrogance, this young man completely disregarded Nan Zhengchuan and his people.

Song Siyu raised an eyebrow, "What do you mean?"

"Miss Song should also consider clearly whether it’s public business or personal vendetta. My grudge with Song Boling has been settled, let’s end it here. But if Miss Song represents the Song Family to avenge Song Boling, then it’s a grudge between the Song Family and me. Miss Song, make sure the Song Family can bear the consequences."

Li Fan’s voice was as calm as the breeze, like casual conversation, yet every word conveyed a strong sense of confidence.

Could it be, as she speculated, Yang Qingshan’s background was not simple?

"Arrogant." Nan Zhengchuan stood with hands behind, overlooking Li Fan, sneeringly stated, "West Emperor Palace law enforcement, and you dare brag."

"It’s all said a dog’s reliance on human power, if not for your reliance on the West Emperor Palace, if you bark before me, you would already be a dead man, like Han Qingzi." Li Fan said.

Nan Zhengchuan heard Li Fan’s words and showed a smile, "It’s the first time I meet such a bold person on West Emperor Island."

"I’ve heard Mr. Nan is a Heavenly Pride Son of the West Emperor Palace. I wonder if, without the West Emperor Palace, you can kill me, a Foundation Establishment cultivator." Li Fan clapped his hands, stood up, raised his head, and looked at Nan Zhengchuan, and said, "Mr. Nan, why not try my sword."

Upon hearing Li Fan’s words, the surroundings fell silent, the distant spectators became intrigued.

Yang Qingshan challenged Nan Zhengchuan, the son of the Law Enforcement elder of the West Emperor Palace.

Moreover, Yang Qingshan was clearly not ordinary. Even with the West Emperor Palace cultivators surrounding him, he remained composed. Where did his confidence come from?

"Zhengchuan, stop wasting words with him, just kill him on the spot." An elder behind Nan Zhengchuan spoke coldly. Yang Qingshan had killed over ten Fifth Realms demons, and he should not be underestimated, not giving him and Nan Zhengchuan a chance to fight alone.

"You don’t dare?" Li Fan looked at Nan Zhengchuan.

"Where does your confidence come from?" Nan Zhengchuan stepped forward, instantly, thunder engulfed the heavens and earth. Behind Nan Zhengchuan, a huge Dharma Form appeared, a Thunder True Body, akin to a Thunder God’s body, carrying the pattern of the Dao on his back.

At this moment, even Nan Zhengchuan’s pupils shot thunder light, with a thought, his whole body seemed to transform, endless thunder columns swept down, those eating meat quickly rose to evade, the space below turned charred black, and Li Fan’s courtyard was instantly leveled.

"You think killing some demons can threaten me; those demons are nothing compared to me." Nan Zhengchuan’s eyes shone with thunder, his speech roared with thunder sounds, "I know you’re provoking me, since so, I’ll fulfill you, letting you die with your eyes closed."

With those words, he raised his arm and pressed downward, instantly the Thunder True Body behind him followed, and a giant Thunder Palm Seal appeared in the sky, runes flowed over it, destruction hidden within, falling in an instant like an apocalyptic palm.

Li Fan’s body seemed to manifest a Sword Domain, countless flying swords circling around him, then transforming into a giant sword, stabbing upward, clashing with the descending palm seal, a storm immediately swept outward.

"West Emperor Island commands the West Sea’s surrounding territories, all islands revere the West Emperor Palace. You killed some sea demons and think you’re unrivaled, arrogant and unaware of the heights of heaven, provoking me. If you die by my hand, your people behind you won’t even have the face to question." Right after Nan Zhengchuan’s words, endless thunder swept down, sealing the space below.

He raised his hand and pressed downward again, countless Thunder Palm Seals continually fell, seemingly attempting to wipe out these lands.
