Chapter 488: Chapter 488: Who Shall Die_1

Seeing Xu Fan’s terrifying presence, Lei Fei was shocked and didn’t dare to be careless. She quickly grabbed Xu Yixue’s throat and, with a swipe of her hand at her waist, a dagger appeared, its cold light striking under the moonlight.

On the handle, there was a gleaming red ruby, and the tip of the dagger was pressed against Xu Yixue’s carotid artery.

Lei Fei watched Xu Fan coldly, her face revealing a fierce look, as if she would choose to kill Xu Yixue immediately if Xu Fan made the slightest false move.

Helpless, facing Xu Fan’s strength, Lei Fei didn’t dare to underestimate him at all.

After all, Xu Fan’s speed surpassed the speed of sound, and this distance of less than one hundred meters could be covered almost instantaneously.

“I’m warning you, release her immediately, or face severe consequences,” Xu Fan’s voice was as cold as frost.

...

“Young man, you sure talk big, but it seems your brain isn’t working too well. Can’t you see what’s obvious here?” Grandpa Qian said slowly, his old eyes half-closed, but his gaze was very cold.

Xu Fan turned a deaf ear, not even glancing once in his direction, his gaze from the beginning to the end stayed on Xu Yixue, and he spoke again, even more icily, “I’ll say it one more time, release her!”

“Giggle...”

Lei Fei laughed out of extreme anger, letting out a giggle. She loosened her grip on the throat and, touching Xu Yixue’s pretty face with her fingernail, mocked, “Xu Fan, you’re really daydreaming. You can’t even ensure your own safety, yet you expect me to release her? Dream on...”

Finally, you speak.

Xu Fan’s Divine Sense burst forth, transforming into a sharp spike, and at the second Lei Fei opened her mouth, it shot out.

In the next instant, Lei Fei’s expression stalled, her pupils dilated suddenly, and she was frozen.

Under the attack of the Divine Sense spike, Lei Fei’s mind was bewildered, as if her brain had stopped functioning due to intense itching.

Seizing this opportunity, Xu Fan moved swiftly, shooting forward, leaving a trail of afterimages behind.

In the blink of an eye, Xu Fan reached Xu Yixue, grabbed her wrist with one hand, and with the other, turned into an unstoppable slap that landed on Lei Fei’s face.

“Slap!”

The crisp slap echoed unusually loud in the night.

Seeing this, Xu Fan finally relaxed, and his expression slightly softened.

Qiankun Elder watched Xu Fan in silence, making no noise and seemingly in no hurry to act.

Indeed, they were certain they had Xu Fan thoroughly trapped. As long as Xu Fan appeared, Xu Yixue’s role as a hostage would come to an end. Giving him a little time to say his last words was like granting him a favour.

After waiting for about ten seconds, Qiankun Elder’s brow lifted, and in a hoarse and sinister voice he said, “Youth, is your last will and testament taken care of? If so, come up here and meet your death.”

“Meet my death? Hmph, laughable!” Xu Fan gave him a scornful glance and sneered.

A murderous intent flashed in Qiankun Elder’s eyes, and he was about to make his move.

Suddenly, a loud and domineering voice rolled in from the distance through the night.

“May I inquire, just who is the one who will meet death?”

Everyone involuntarily turned their gaze in that direction, sensing that the newcomer’s momentum was vast and overbearing, undoubtedly that of a Martial King.

Lei Fei’s heart trembled, and her complexion turned surprised and uneasy.

She had thought her strength was quite impressive, just one step shy of becoming a Martial King. Yet among the Ancient Martial Artists present, she turned out to be the weakest.

She truly didn’t understand why, in Zhonghai City, so many strong Ancient Martial Artists appeared all at once, including even Kings one after another.

Soon, Nan Bowan approached rapidly through the air, hands clasped behind his back, gown fluttering, exuding a somewhat otherworldly charm.

“Nan Bowan? How are you, this old undying thing, still alive?”

Qiankun Elder stared intently, and upon recognizing the person’s face, his pupils shrank and he said in a chilling tone.

“Heh heh... Qiankun Twin Swords, if you two haven’t died, naturally I need to live a little longer.” Nan Bowan stood in the air, looked down below, and chuckled.

As soon as he spoke, the atmosphere became tense and confrontational, like the oppressive moment before a storm, heavy with tension.

Both parties had lived most of their lives, fighting for their respective camps. Over the years they had clashed numerous times, and since their organizations had intelligence on each other, they were very familiar with one another, leaving no need to mince words.

As one of the four Jin Gang of the Black Blade Organization, faced with an “old friend,” the Qiankun Twin Swords immediately showed a murderous intent, not concealing it at all. Even the swords that they carried seemed to sense their masters’ readiness to fight, trembling slightly, itching to unsheathe and taste blood.

Nan Bowan, however, seemed unfazed. The long-standing grudge between the Flame Dragon Organization and the Black Blade Organization could not be reconciled. Whenever the two sides met, it was bound to be a fight to the death, so he was not surprised.

He turned to look at Xu Fan and asked, “Are you Xu Fan, the protector?”
