Chapter 7 Enemies meeting again, their eyes blaze with hatred!

Just as Xiao Ming lifted his foot to head elsewhere, his peripheral vision inadvertently caught a rather eye-catching pair.

It was none other than Liu Feier and Zhang Kuang.

Liu Feier was seen clinging intimately to Zhang Kuang's arm, her body almost pressing against him, her face beaming with an extremely unnatural, yet ostentatious, sweet smile.

She seemed to pay special attention to her demeanor, her chin slightly raised as she attempted to display a haughtiness that did not match her status.

Compared to her plain and austere appearance from a few months ago, her current attire was quite lavish. She even wore a decent-quality jade hairpin in her hair, clearly a benefit that had slipped through Zhang Kuang's fingers.

However, beneath this seemingly glorious surface, it was hard to hide a trace of constraint and artificiality.

Her overly intimate posture seemed more like an anxious attempt to prove something to others.

She was like a vine that had been carefully pruned but lacked a solid Foundation, tightly wrapped around the tall tree beside her. She appeared lush and vibrant, yet she was inherently weak, her fate entirely dependent on another.

At this moment, she was clinging to Zhang Kuang, walking gracefully in Xiao Ming's direction.

Xiao Ming couldn't help but raise an eyebrow. "I just intercepted this tiny bit of meager Luck, and trouble has already arrived at my doorstep? Could it be that because I slept with the daughter of Luck, her Luck halo has transferred onto me?"

Just as Xiao Ming was feeling puzzled, he saw an ordinary-looking youth in green robes appear from nowhere, walking straight toward Zhang Kuang and Liu Feier.

As their gazes collided, sparks flew instantly!

Upon seeing the newcomer, Zhang Kuang's eyes instantly erupted with rage, his killing intent almost solidifying!

A few days ago, Zhang Kuang and his henchmen had encountered an accident while out, leaving Zhang Kuang severely injured and his cultivation level dropped.

His henchmen had also had their cultivation completely destroyed while protecting their master. Afterward, Zhang Kuang had used his Family's influence to investigate secretly and discovered that Lin Fan was responsible for it all, having done it solely to snatch an Opportunity!

Since then, Lin Fan had been on the Zhang Family's hit list! If not for his mysterious whereabouts and solitary nature, he would likely have been torn to pieces by the Zhang Family long ago.

Now that they were face-to-face, there was no need for idle chatter!

"Lin Fan! Pay with your life!" Zhang Kuang roared, his Foundation Establishment Late Stage cultivation erupting with full force. He immediately unleashed his Family's secret technique, the "Blood Evil Palm." The wind from his palm carried a stench as it struck directly at Lin Fan's crown! He was determined to kill him in one blow!

A glint of cunning flashed in Lin Fan's eyes, his scheme having succeeded. His sudden appearance today had been a deliberate lure! For days, he had been like a rat, either hiding within the Sect or sneaking out to find some place to lie low and train.

Facing this fatal strike, he leaned slightly to the side, narrowly dodging the attack, and skillfully diverted the force of Zhang Kuang's palm toward the empty space beside him!

"Boom!" The palm force blasted a shallow crater into the ground, sending shockwaves rolling outward. The surrounding crowd retreated in fear, but no one dared to step forward to intervene. In this Demon Sect market, fighting and bloodshed were common occurrences; as long as it didn't cause too much collateral damage, no one would bother to care.

"Trash! Is hiding all you can do?" Zhang Kuang roared. His offensive intensified, his palms striking out in rapid succession, sending waves of blood-colored palm shadows to engulf Lin Fan.

Lin Fan appeared disheveled, yet he nimbly maneuvered within a tight space, diverting all of Zhang Kuang's violent attacks into thin air, thereby exhausting his strength. He was like a cat playing with a mouse, waiting for the perfect moment to deliver a fatal blow!

After dozens of exchanges, Zhang Kuang had failed to land a hit, and his breathing began to grow ragged. In the split second when his old strength was spent and his new strength had yet to form, Lin Fan made his move!

A fierce light erupted in his eyes as the Aura he had been suppressing suddenly exploded, revealing his Foundation Establishment Peak cultivation in its entirety! His figure moved like lightning, his finger, imbued with insidious Devilish Qi, striking with lightning speed toward the vital point of Zhang Kuang's Dantian!

"Pfft—!"

Zhang Kuang had never expected Lin Fan to strike so decisively, and he was even more shocked that Lin Fan's cultivation had surpassed his own. Clearly, the last time he had seen him, he was only at the Foundation Establishment Middle Stage, yet now... His protective Spiritual Qi was shattered instantly, and a tearing pain shot through his Dantian! He let out a miserable scream and collapsed to the ground like a pile of mud, his eyes filled with despair and disbelief.

"You... you dare cripple me..." He stared fixedly at Lin Fan, filled with extreme resentment.

Lin Fan withdrew his finger and looked down at him, his gaze as indifferent as if looking at an ant. "In your next life, keep your eyes open."

With that, a flash of murderous intent appeared in his eyes. He was about to step forward and deliver the final blow to end Zhang Kuang's life completely and eliminate any future trouble!

He knew well that in this cruel world of cultivation, if you cut the grass without removing the roots, it will grow again with the spring breeze.

Suddenly, Lin Fan's expression changed drastically! He keenly sensed an incomparably powerful Aura, carrying monstrous Devilish Qi, rushing rapidly from the direction of the Sect! This Aura was incredibly powerful—at the very least, it belonged to a Nascent Soul expert or higher.

"Damn it! How did they get here so fast!" Lin Fan cursed inwardly. If he were caught on the spot by this person, given the background of the Zhang Family and his master, even if he were in the right for killing Zhang Kuang, he would certainly not escape severe punishment and might even be secretly eliminated!

In a split second, Lin Fan weighed the pros and cons and decisively abandoned the idea of delivering the final blow. He could not afford to gamble; this was the Demon Sect, and he dared not even imagine the prospect of impartial justice.

After withdrawing his hand, he took one last look at the dying Zhang Kuang with eyes as indifferent as if looking at an ant, and said in a chilling voice that only the two of them could hear, "Consider yourself lucky this time; I'll spare your miserable life. Enjoy the taste of being a cripple."

With that, he did not linger. He didn't even glance at Liu Feier, who was frozen in shock, but with a flicker of his figure, he quickly blended into the crowd and vanished.

What he failed to notice, however, was that in the crowd, someone was watching his every move with a playful and mocking gaze.
