Unrivaled Martial Emperor-Chapter 1643 - Banished to the Demon Realm

Crown Prince Jin’s shrill wail tore through the void, thick with unbearable agony. The anguish in that scream made countless hearts tremble.

“Ahhh!”

“Chen Fan, how dare you? You actually crippled my martial arts. Ah, you bastard!”

“What’s so sacred about your cultivation?” Chen Fan replied flatly, as though discussing something utterly insignificant. “Why shouldn’t I cripple it? Did you really believe that hiding behind that old coot, Deng Ao, would protect you? Ridiculous!”

The sounds of people sucking in breaths of cold air rang out around them.

Chen Fan had really done it. He had crippled Crown Prince Jin’s cultivation.

Countless people shuddered.

In a supreme immortal sect like the Featherlight Sect, Immortal Kings were pillars of power, figures of authority whose existence upheld the sect itself. Every single one was invaluable.

Yet Chen Fan had crippled Crown Prince Jin in public. His audacity was beyond measure.

Furthermore, who exactly was Crown Prince Jin?

He was the Demon Suppression Elder Deng Ao’s favored disciple. To ordinary disciples, he was someone untouchable, let alone someone whose cultivation could be destroyed.

What was Chen Fan trying to do with this? In their minds, he had already pierced the heavens.

An ice-cold voice descended from the distant sky. Next, a gigantic palm manifested, crashing down with the intent to erase Chen Fan on the spot.

“So vicious. Such cruelty at such a young age. A danger like this cannot be allowed to live.”

Chen Fan sensed danger approaching almost instantly. He retreated frantically, avoiding the descending hand.

Boom!

The large hand shattered the void, yet it did not stop. It continued surging toward Chen Fan’s retreating figure.

Suddenly, another colossal hand reached out from the void.

“Deng Ao, you’re courting death!” A furious voice resounded like thunder.

The two large hands clashed in the void, splitting the sky. They slammed into the chaotic void beyond, throwing everything into disorder. Violent shockwaves swept outward, triggering terrifying storms.

Chen Fan breathed a sigh of relief.

Although he could kill a newbie Immortal King, confronting Deng Ao’s strike across space, even through an incarnation, was utterly beyond his limits.

Fortunately, his master, the Heavenly Punishment Elder, had intervened in time.

“Heavenly Punishment, your little beast of a disciple crippled my disciple’s cultivation and has committed a capital offense. That’s the act of a demon. And you dare shield such a creature!” Deng Ao’s furious roar came from afar.

“Don’t give me that bullshit. Who doesn’t know what kind of trash your disciple is? He’s crippled, then so be it. He’s worthless. Keeping him alive would be a waste of resources. For trash that only bullies others in safe territory, not killing him outright is already mercy toward you. Don’t be so thick.” The Heavenly Punishment Elder’s voice sounded equally domineering.

Within the secret realm, Crown Prince Jin howled hysterically, “Master, kill him. You must kill him. He dared to cripple my martial arts, that scoundrel. I want him dead without a burial place!”

“Heavenly Punishment, this matter will not end here. I will slaughter that little beast myself!”

“Come. Let me see how you plan to kill him with me standing here.”

“Asshole!” Deng Ao flew into a rage, “Are you really going to protect him? I’ll see him dead today, even if it means starting a war!”

“Haha, war it is, then. Did you think I’d fear you? I’ve wanted to fight you for a long time. Today is the day. Come on, let’s see who’s stronger.”

“Damn it, Heavenly Punishment, you really angered me!”

A terrifying roar shook the nine heavens. Then, an enormous figure appeared within the secret realm. It was Deng Ao’s incarnation. Carrying overwhelming rage, he sent a palm strike at Chen Fan, shattering heaven and earth.

“I already told you, old fart. You won’t even kill an ant in front of me!”

Another enormous figure appeared, striking back head-on. It was the Heavenly Punishment Elder.

Both were apex Immortal Emperors. In the past, Deng Ao had always held a slight edge. He was older, with a deeper foundation.

However, after experiencing the baptism of the Sacred Radiance, the Heavenly Punishment Elder transformed, and his strength skyrocketed.

At this level, it was tough to make even a tiny improvement. Yet the Sacred Radiance had granted him power equivalent to millennia of cultivation in one leap.

Their first collision shattered the heavens and split the earth.

“Hahahaha, Deng Ao, it seems you’ve truly grown old. Is this really all you can do?”

Just as the Heavenly Punishment Elder’s punch was about to hit Deng Ao, a streak of light flashed across the sky, dissipating the large hand into nothingness. Immediately afterward, a figure streaked across the sky: the sect leader.

The sect leader rebuked them the moment he arrived.

“What madness is this? Fighting among yourselves like savages. Do you have any sense of propriety?”

“You’re finally here, Sect Leader. This little beast harmed his fellow disciple, showing no regard for the sect at all. In my opinion, he’s demon-possessed, infiltrating the Featherlight Sect to assassinate our geniuses.”

Deng Ao cupped his fists slightly in greeting. Even as a mere primordial spirit, Deng Ao’s status and authority remained immense. His decades of service commanded respect, forcing even the sect leader to show restraint.

Chen Fan rebuked bluntly, “Bullshit, clearly it’s you, old bastard, plotting against me time and time again. You’re all a den of snakes and rats. Someone like you holding power is the greatest toxin within the Featherlight Sect.”

Many people nearly fainted from shock. Chen Fan was too bold, daring to call Deng Ao an old bastard right in front of the sect leader.

“Sect Leader, there’s no need for me to say more,” the Heavenly Punishment Elder said calmly. “The truth is clear. You know exactly what happened here. Right and wrong should be obvious to you.”

The sect leader nodded and said, “I am already aware of this matter. Chen Fan has harmed his fellow disciple. He’ll be sent to the Demon Realm Passageway to stand guard as punishment.”

“Sect Leader!” Deng Ao protested immediately.

Guarding the Demon Realm Passage was a brutal assignment for most; for someone like Chen Fan, it was clearly too light.

“Be patient. Chen Fan, you will be required to slay a specified number of demon experts while stationed there. Only after completing this task may you return. Fail, and you will remain there for life as penance.” The Featherlight Sect leader continued, “As for you, Deng Ao, I know the full sequence of events. Keep your disciples under control. If they provoke further trouble, you will not escape accountability.”
