Chapter 679 - Came with Unkind Intentions

“What? He is Chen Fan!”

The nearby crowd froze, eyes wide and jaws slack as if struck by lightning upon hearing the green-robed youth’s words.

“I knew it! He really is Chen Fan. My god, he is the same guy who scared off Yuan Powang!”

“A man’s reputation is like his shadow. No wonder he took down Nie Xiao and his demonic tiger so effortlessly. No other seventh-level Divine Nascent realm martial artist can do that. But if it’s Chen Fan, then that’s exactly what you’d expect.”

“Nie Xiao really didn’t bring his eyes with him, kicking a steel plate that is Chen Fan. It’s no wonder his legs got broken.”

“Nie Xiao really miscalculated this time. He thought he was fighting an ordinary seventh-level martial artist, but his opponent was Chen Fan. If he'd known, he wouldn't have dared to act even if he had ten times his arrogance and guts.”

“But now Chen Fan has gotten into serious trouble. The Law Enforcement Hall senior brother waited until Nie Xiao was down to make his move, and from that strike, it’s clear he wants Chen Fan dead.”

“

Shhh

, lower your voices! We can’t afford to offend either Chen Fan or the Law Enforcement Hall. Better to step back and see how this plays out.”

“Ah, my little heart. It feels like it’s about to explode.”

“Chen Fan. So, he is Chen Fan. No wonder he doesn’t show respect to anyone, not even the senior disciples!”

“......”

The nearby crowd was all very surprised when they found out he was Chen Fan.

Though Chen Fan was among the last to arrive at the True Martial City, trailing behind most others on the ancient road, his reputation had long since spread. It wasn’t just well-known; it was downright terrifying.

After all, few could carve a bloody path through constant dangers, becoming stronger with every kill. Yet, Chen Fan had done just that, earning the moniker "Killing God" and striking fear into countless hearts.

The crowd’s expressions shifted, now a mix of shock, curiosity, and a bit of schadenfreude. But most kept their distance, their faces indifferent.

Now that Chen Fan was in conflict with the Law Enforcement Hall, things would likely not end well for him.

Still, they felt it wasn’t their problem. They couldn’t afford to cross either Chen Fan or the Law Enforcement Hall disciples.

Chen Fan blinked, surprised that the green-robed man recognized him. However, this revelation changed everything.

These Law Enforcement Hall disciples did not show up when Nie Xiao was rampaging, trying to crush him.

However, they appeared after he dealt with Nie Xiao, and they knew about him. All this proved that they had come with malicious intent, likely planning this confrontation for some time.

So, who was behind this?

He had killed many and offended even more.

But to orchestrate this ambush and manipulate the Law Enforcement Hall’s power suggested a formidable background and a deep-seated grudge against him.

Of the many he had killed, almost all had impressive backgrounds, so he simply had no idea who was behind this.

“Don’t mess with me if you wish to live,” Chen Fan said coldly, his tone dripping with disdain. He had no intention of treating this so-called group of Law Enforcement Hall disciples with any respect.

The crowd behind him fell into stunned silence, their eyes widening to the point of nearly bulging from their sockets. They could hardly believe what they’d just heard.

Chen Fan actually dared to say something like that!

Though everyone here was a standout genius in their own right, these Law Enforcement Hall disciples weren’t just anyone—they were formidable talents themselves. None of them were to be trifled with.

Moreover, in any force or sect, the Law Enforcement Hall commanded a special kind of fear.

That was because the Law Enforcement Hall was in charge of punishments within the sect. They represented authority and could decide one’s life or death. Anyone who fell afoul of the Law Enforcement Hall would be lucky to escape with just their lives, often suffering grievous consequences.

Thus, every martial artist had a natural fear of the Law Enforcement Hall. They would never clash with the Law Enforcement Hall’s people easily.

Yet here stood Chen Fan, casually threatening these very enforcers that others feared like a plague. This was as if a thunderbolt had struck on a clear day, leaving everyone in utter disbelief, their minds reeling.

How could Chen Fan dare say something like that?

Where did his confidence come from?

Even if his name had spread across the eastern continent, and he could defeat a half-step Heavenly Star realm expert, how could he have the audacity to act so arrogantly in front of the True Martial Academy’s Law Enforcement Hall?

Even martial artists with the worst temper would not dare to act insolently in front of the Law Enforcement Hall, especially not in front of the True Martial Academy’s Law Enforcement Hall.

Who else would dare to act as brazenly as Chen Fan, openly challenging the Law Enforcement Hall disciples and even threatening them? It was an outright act of defiance against their authority.

Everyone was shocked, including this group of Law Enforcement Hall disciples.

Instantly, the murderous intent on their faces grew colder and more intense.

“I’m warning you, you’d better give yourself up and follow me back to the Law Enforcement Hall obediently to receive your punishment. This is the True Martial Academy. You can’t act recklessly here. If you resist, we have the right to kill you on the spot!” said the green-robed man coldly.

The Law Enforcement Hall disciples behind him stepped forward, releasing their terrifying auras, each enveloping Chen Fan like a dark shroud.

They were all at the ninth-level Divine Nascent realm.

The fact that those people could enter the True Martial Academy was already a testament of their extraordinary talent. They were all geniuses and were the best among those of the same cultivation level.

The nearby crowd’s legs trembled under their terrifying auras. Their knees felt weak, and their breathing became labored, feeling a sense of suffocation. They were all trembling in fear.

In their eyes, the Law Enforcement Hall’s people were demons from hell.

These Law Enforcement Hall disciples were too powerful, far surpassing the crowd. Deep, cold auras swept out from them, shocking heaven and earth, like the apocalypse was descending.

Leading them, the green-robed man stood at the peak of the ninth level, his gaze sharp like an unsheathed blade. He radiated a sense of absolute authority, ready to strike with deadly force at the slightest sign of resistance from Chen Fan.

They were Law Enforcement Hall disciples. Anyone who dared to defy them would be courting death, and if they fell beneath the Hall’s blade, they would simply have died in vain.

Chen Fan had made a great name for himself by scaring off a half-step Heavenly Star realm expert, but the Law Enforcement Hall disciples still did not regard him highly.

To them, he was still insignificant. Even the Heavenly Star realm disciples of the True Martial Academy would tread carefully around the Law Enforcement Hall, so Chen Fan was nothing to them.

Once he entered the Law Enforcement Hall, he would be at their mercy.

The thought of him resisting was almost exciting because it would give the green-robed man the perfect excuse to kill Chen Fan on the spot.

The nearby crowd kept quiet out of fear, trembling in place, their gazes filled with terror.

Was this the strength of the True Martial Academy?

Just this group of seemingly ordinary Law Enforcement Hall disciples already exuded such overwhelming power, leaving others in fear and awe.
