Shen Fan angrily kills Li Shaobai, and his clone escapes all suspicion
Shen Fan’s roar was filled with boundless fury.
This shout startled everyone from the Blood Refinement Sect.
Blood Rose and Gu Santong exchanged glances.
Logically speaking, although thousands had died, to the people of the Blood Refinement Sect, it was just another incident!
Why was this Blood Child Fourth Senior Brother so enraged?
Li Shaobai, facing Shen Fan's fury, not only showed no fear but became even more confident.
Anyway, no one saw it, so all he had to do was insist he didn't do it!
As long as the other party set conditions, he could return to Tianxuan Sect safely.
“You ask me? How would I know? It was already like this when I arrived!”
Upon hearing this, Shen Fan’s expression grew even colder.
However, no one could see how terrifying the expression beneath the mask was.
Although unseen, the surrounding Qi subtly felt off.
“You’re stubborn, aren’t you?” Shen Fan’s voice was devoid of any emotional fluctuation.
“Whoosh!”
The next moment!
A Soul Suppression Nail directly pierced Li Shaobai’s right ankle.
“Ah!!”
The pain of piercing through flesh and blood made Li Shaobai let out a hoarse scream.
“Opportunities are few, cherish them well!”
Shen Fan asked coldly, “I’ll ask you again, are you going to speak?”
“If you have the guts, kill me! I’d like to see if your Sect Master of the Blood Refinement Sect will let you off if you kill me. I’m telling you, there are unwritten rules between Sects. If you capture me, and you state your conditions, my Revered Master will agree, but you cannot abuse me like this!”
Li Shaobai remained stubborn.
But at this moment, Shen Fan was not listening to any of it.
“Whoosh!”
Another Soul Suppression Nail flew out, accurately piercing Li Shaobai’s other foot.
“Are you going to speak or not?!”
“No! If you have the guts, just kill me!”
“You have some backbone, but I’d like to see if you can last until the end!”
Without another word, Shen Fan threw out two Soul Suppression Nails.
“Whoosh! Whoosh!!”
Two Soul Suppression Nails accurately struck both of his arms.
“Not many chances left!”
“Ah!!”
The intense pain further ignited the arrogance in Li Shaobai’s bones.
“I won’t say it, I won’t say it!”
“Interesting. I like tough bones like yours!”
“Whoosh!”
This time, the Soul Suppression Nail directly hit the heart area of his chest.
Li Shaobai trembled all over, his eyes wide open, looking at Shen Fan in disbelief.
The sensation from his chest made him clearly feel his life force rapidly draining away.
At this moment, only one thought was in Li Shaobai’s mind.
That was: “This guy is serious!”
Seeing this, Gu Santong and Blood Rose, who were standing by, immediately began to dissuade him.
“Senior Brother, you can’t kill him!”
“If this continues, he’ll die!”
Upon hearing this, Shen Fan immediately chuckled: “He’s from the Tianxuan Sect! Why are you pleading for him?”
“Senior Brother, you don’t know, but what this guy said is indeed true. There are such unwritten rules among the major Sects. Whenever a relatively important person from the opposing side is captured, they are usually released after conditions are negotiated. They won’t be completely annihilated!” Gu Santong explained.
“There’s such a thing?” Shen Fan showed a surprised expression.
“Yes, the reasons for doing this are, first, to prevent the opponent from fighting to the death, and second, to gain some benefits!”
Shen Fan was a bit confused: “But killing their important people wouldn’t also weaken their strength? What’s there to fear?”
Gu Santong shook his head and said, “That’s not something we need to consider!”
Hearing this, Shen Fan pondered for a moment.
But then he immediately understood.
This was probably like in the Three Kingdoms period, where captured enemy generals were usually exchanged back.
But when Guan Yu was captured and killed by Lu Meng, it led to a fierce retaliation from Shu Kingdom later on.
The current situation was probably similar.
But Shen Fan didn’t care about any of this; he wanted to be that Lu Meng now.
Whatever unwritten rules existed between the Tianxuan Sect and the Blood Refinement Sect, that was their business.
If he let Li Shaobai go back, he would definitely be targeted and suspected.
Otherwise, so many people came out, everyone else died, only he survived, and Li Shaobai was exchanged back. Wouldn’t Li Shaobai think more about it?
Shen Fan had to prevent every crisis that could be disadvantageous to him from appearing.
And at this moment.
The stubborn Li Shaobai also deeply felt the breath of death.
“I’ll tell you, I’ll tell you!”
Li Shaobai murmured weakly.
Shen Fan, expressionless, leaned down slightly and then whispered in his ear: “I’m sorry, you’ve run out of chances!”
The next moment!
Shen Fan struck Li Shaobai’s Dantian with his palm.
The night was as dark as ink.
No one saw the devouring black hole that appeared in Shen Fan’s palm.
A huge suction force came from the black hole.
“Ah!!”
Li Shaobai let out a hoarse cry of pain, looking at Shen Fan in disbelief and weakly muttering, “Soul… Swallowing Spirit Technique, you are… you are Xue Hanzhou!”
Before Li Shaobai could finish speaking, Shen Fan forcibly extracted Li Shaobai’s Spiritual Root from his Dantian and then integrated it into his body.
However, now was not the best time for absorption.
After all this was done.
Shen Fan, in front of everyone, drove the last Soul Suppression Nail into Li Shaobai’s glabella.
Six Paths Soul Suppressing Nails, Six Paths Soul Suppression!
At this moment, Li Shaobai’s spirit and form were utterly destroyed.
Under the astonished gazes of Blood Rose and Gu Santong, Shen Fan retracted the Six Paths Soul Suppressing Nails, then kicked Li Shaobai’s corpse into the pile of dead bodies.
Then he said indifferently, “I’m not blind; don’t you think I know those people were killed by you?”
After doing all this, Shen Fan grew blood-colored wings on his back and prepared to leave.
Before leaving, he instructed Gu Santong: “Publicize everything these people did!
The Great Li Kingdom is currently in civil strife. Since they massacred so many civilians, Royal Xuanji, the former emperor of the Great Li Kingdom who is stationed at the Tianxuan Sect, will definitely harbor resentment. This will be even more beneficial to us then!”
“That’s right!”
Gu Santong suddenly realized.
Compared to handing over Li Shaobai for immediate gain.
Making a big deal out of Li Shaobai’s indiscriminate killing this time would be much more effective than handing him over!
“Blood Child Senior Brother has great foresight, Junior Brother admires him!” Gu Santong praised from the bottom of his heart.
“Admiration!” Blood Rose also praised.
“I’ll leave things here to you. I’m leaving first!”
Shen Fan instructed indifferently.
“Also, have people continue to help the rebels attack Tianhu City!”
Gu Santong was puzzled: “Why is that? The Sect Master instructed us to help attack Tianhu City mainly to draw firepower from Tiger Head Mountain. Now that we’ve achieved our goal, why continue to do so?”
“Just do what I tell you! Why so much nonsense!” Shen Fan sternly rebuked.
“Yes, yes, yes!” Gu Santong immediately showed a look of fear.
After his words fell, Shen Fan transformed into a streak of blood-light and left.
Watching Shen Fan turn into a blood-light, Gu Santong showed an envious expression: “Blood Locust Divine Skill, this is our Blood Refinement Sect’s core Cultivation Technique. Even we can’t access it. I wonder if, with this merit and riding on the Blood Child Senior Brother’s glory, I can Cultivate it?”
...
...
And at this moment, Shen Fan.
Had already rushed to Tianhu City.
The reason Shen Fan did this was to create confusion and give the Tianxuan Sect the illusion that he had always been supporting Tianhu City.
Fortunately, Shen Fan had already left a Heavenly Shadow Clone Technique here before.
This way, the Tianhu City commander could testify for him.
At that time, even if Li Shaobai’s responsibility was investigated, it would have nothing to do with him.
It must be said that Shen Fan’s actions were truly meticulous.
At this moment, Tianhu City’s city walls were still bustling with people.
The resting soldiers were not idle either, quickly replenishing rolling logs, falling stones, and oil barrels, as well as other defensive equipment.
And Shen Fan quietly infiltrated Tianhu City.
Previously, when the Tianhu City commander saw that the crisis was resolved, he invited Shen Fan’s Clone to the City Lord’s Mansion.
In the room arranged by the City Lord’s Mansion, he merged with his Heavenly Shadow Clone Technique, and then slowly opened his eyes.
