Chapter 428 -428 Purple Sword Exposed

Facing the aggressive Jin Zhongming.

Jiang Fan appeared unruffled: “Let’s not compete.”

“Just exchange your resources properly and don’t look for trouble.”

Although Jin Zhongming had been performing first-level missions in Sunset City,

Jiang Fan had not fallen behind either.

He had successively completed a third-level mission, a first-level mission with four times the reward, a second-level mission, and another first-level mission.

In terms of merit points, he was not any less than the elites of Sunset City.

“So, we are to compete?” Jin Zhongming said coldly,

“Whoever loses cuts off one hand!”

Hiss!

This 𝓬ontent is taken from fгeewebnovёl.co𝙢.

Everyone was awestruck.

Jin Zhongming was really ruthless, he wanted Jiang Fan to lose a hand right off the bat.

Liu Qingxian stepped forward and shouted, “Jin Zhongming, what does bullying my junior brother prove?”

“You’ve been in Sunset City for a long time, but he’s only been here for a few days.”

“How can you even think of competing with him!”

This wasn’t a competition; it was clearly an attempt to seek revenge against Jiang Fan, intending to totally destroy him.

A broken hand injury, even with a Divine Doctor present and spirit pills in hand, would take at least ten days to half a month to recover.

Such a long period of inactivity could cause someone to miss valuable mission opportunities,

fall behind others,

and make it hard to catch up again.

Ye Cangyuan raised his hand, also feeling that Jin Zhongming had gone too far,

but he ultimately didn’t speak further and turned to enter his camp.

As a Guardian, it wasn’t appropriate to interfere too much in conflicts between disciples.

If there was a grudge, it was best they settled it themselves.

As for Jiang Fan being at a disadvantage, there was no remedy.

Jin Zhongming glanced at her disdainfully and said, “He also knows he’s only been here a few days?”

“Then why isn’t he being humble and low-key?”

“The matter between him and me, you stay out of it!”

“Otherwise, I’ll look for another opportunity to spar with you!”

Hearing the last sentence, Liu Qingxian’s expression changed slightly; she bit her silver teeth and felt deeply humiliated.

Jiang Fan squinted his eyes.

This Jin Zhongming had indeed bullied Liu Qingxian before!

In that case…

Jiang Fan smiled lightly: “Compete, I accept.”

“However, I am not interested in your hand; I’d rather roast a bear paw to eat.”

Jin Zhongming laughed softly: “You’re brave!”

“Say, what do you want?”

Jiang Fan pointed to the Comparable to Heaven Halberd in Jin Zhongming’s hand: “It!”

Jin Zhongming laughed loudly.

He swung the Comparable to Heaven Halberd vigorously, slicing a tangible black line through the air.

That was a sign of space being cut open!

“You have good eyes to see this is a High Grade Magical Artifact.”

“This is an unrivaled Divine Weapon personally forged by the Thousand Refinement Sect Master upon my master’s request, weighing a thousand pounds!”

“A slash on a demon beast, if it doesn’t cut it down, it will crush it!”

Jiang Fan replied calmly, “What, reluctant to part with it?”

Jin Zhongming laughed softly: “Then what will you wager?”

“Anything you like! Whatever you fancy, take it,” Jiang Fan pointed to the sword and lute on himself.

Jin Zhongming shook his head: “I’m not interested in your trashy items.”

“How about this, if you win, the Halberd is yours.”

“If you lose, both of your hands, both of your feet, and that annoying tongue of yours, I will use this Halberd to cut them off piece by piece!”

Jiang Fan shrugged: “No problem!”

“Fan!” Liu Qingxian became anxious: “Jin Zhongming has completed three first-level missions!”

“Are you crazy?”

She couldn’t understand.

How could Jiang Fan, who had been carrying out logistical tasks domestically, compare with Jin Zhongming in terms of merits!

Isn’t this clearly a disadvantage?

Only three first-level missions?

That’s fewer than expected.

Jin Zhongming, however, was eager: “Good! It’s a deal!”

“Everyone in Sunset City bear witness!”

“Whoever reneges, let the rest spit on him!”

To the numerous disciples who were always mentally tense, this match was undoubtedly a rare relaxation activity.

They echoed in agreement, their eyes filled with anticipation.

Returning to Liu Qingxian’s place of residence,

he looked at the dilapidated small courtyard, a lone outhouse, a wrecked woodshed and kitchen.

Jiang Fan couldn’t help but laugh: “To think the Sect Master’s daughter would come here to endure such hardships. It’s really not easy.”

Liu Qingxian kept glaring at him: “Don’t change the subject!”

“What were you thinking?”

“Do you not want to stay in Sunset City anymore and not want to see me, so you found an excuse to leave?”

Tears brimmed in her eyes as she spoke.

She couldn’t be blamed for overthinking.

She and Jiang Fan were barely acquainted, feeling very insecure.

It was hard not to think the worst.

Jiang Fan laughed in surprise and openly put his arm around her slender shoulders: “What are you thinking?”

“Since I dare to compete, I naturally have confidence.”

“How could I not want to see you?”

“If that were the case, I wouldn’t have come all the way to rescue you.”

Liu Qingxian felt touched.

Just now on the square, she learned that the task of rescuing her had been elevated to an elder-level mission.

This indicated its danger.

Yet Jiang Fan still went without hesitation.

“Sorry, I shouldn’t have overthought.”

Liu Qingxian apologized, resting her head on his shoulder.

“Rest assured, I don’t fight battles I’m not sure of.”

“But you, go eat those clam pieces now and quickly raise your strength.”

“I don’t want you to be bullied again.”

He said caringly.

Meanwhile,

Kong Yuanba listened with a dark expression as a subordinate reported.

“You say there was a young disciple wearing a mask using a Purple Sword?”

The subordinate looked excited: “Yes! According to the description, it matches what Sun Chaozong described exactly.”

“Emitting a purple light, with formidable spiritual pressure, of a very high grade.”

“This person demonstrated it near the Myriad Swords Sect, discovered by a disciple passing by.”

Bam—

Kong Yuanba slammed his hand on the table.

He was already exceedingly bitter about the death of the person using the Nascent Soul Jade Token.

Because possessing the Jade Token didn’t necessarily mean that Tie Bubai was the killer.

It could be the murderer had transferred the token to someone else.

But, the one holding the Purple Sword was undoubtedly the true murderer.

“You say he is a disciple? An exceptionally skilled elite disciple?”

“Yes, Sect Master! The disciple said this person’s strength is absolutely top-tier within the Nine-Sect.”

Kong Yuanba’s eyes gleamed with excitement:

“That’s convenient!”

“Now, all the elite disciples are in Sunset City!”

“And tonight, the merit ranking will be announced for the first time; he will definitely be present!”

“If I examine their swords one by one, won’t I find the true murderer?”

He clenched his fist.

He growled viciously, “I’m finally going to find you!”

“I don’t care who you are or what it costs!”

“You must die!”

The Great Elder of the Giant Sect had been assassinated.

This was an unprecedented provocation against the Giant Sect.

Moreover, it was the greatest humiliation the Giant Sect had ever faced.

Overtly and covertly, the Giant Sect had endured untold ridicule!

Now, they could finally unmask the murderer.

To execute him and announce it to the world!

The dilapidated courtyard.

Jiang Fan was alone in the courtyard, practicing the second form of the Three Pure Thunder Shadow,

the Five Thunder True Heaven Palm!

But he had made no progress.

Because the requirements for the second form were far more demanding than the first form, Thunder Dragon Lightning Leg.

The needed power of thunder and lightning was ten times that of the first form.

Previously, relying on the thunder and lightning power of the Silver Winged Thunderbird, he managed to barely master the first form.

Now, where was he going to find so much thunder and lightning?

Should he catch ten Silver Winged Thunderbirds?

Putting aside whether it was easy or not.

Did the Demon Race even have that many Silver Winged Thunderbirds?

Squeak—

Liu Qingxian came out, her face full of joy, and exclaimed excitedly, “Fan, Fan, I broke through to the Second Level of Core Formation!”

“The clam meat you gave me is even more effective than the Dragon Saliva Pill that enhances Core Formation Realm cultivation!”

She couldn’t believe it; a month after breaking through to the Core Formation Realm, she had advanced another level.

The speed was so fast, people wouldn’t believe it.

Because under normal circumstances, it would take at least half a year to have the chance to break through to the next level.

Jiang Fan nodded, as expected.

This clam meat was indeed a rare Divine Object that could nurture the Sky-Burning Clam Pearl.

Such results were not surprising.

“Once your realm stabilizes, I’ll give you another piece, and strive to break through to the Third Level of Core Formation in a month!”

He looked at the sky.

Jiang Fan finished his practice and said, “Let’s go, to the square.”

“The merit ranking list is about to be announced.”

He looked forward to it eagerly.

He wondered if his merits could be exchanged for a space storage device from the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion’s treasure trove.
