Chapter 368 - 368 368 No Escape from a Living Crime

Chapter 368: Chapter 368: No Escape from a Living Crime Chapter 368: Chapter 368: No Escape from a Living Crime “Did they invite you as well?”

Feng Wuchen asked indifferently.

“Yes!” Luoyan hesitated slightly, answering with terror, “But I didn’t know that they had offended the Dan Emperor and Young Master Zhang.”

In front of Feng Wuchen and Zhang Junlan, Luoyan dared not lie; otherwise, there was only one path—a path to death.

Now, Luoyan wished he could kill Ge Yunfeng. It was an accident that he called out to him, and it just so happened that Feng Wuchen and Zhang Junlan overheard it.

Half a year ago, they had just offended Feng Wuchen and Zhang Junlan in the Desolate Domain, scaring their souls out of them. They barely managed to redeem themselves by making amends for their crimes, and now, to make matters worse, they had indirectly offended Feng Wuchen again.

Luoyan cursed his bad luck but was relieved that he hadn’t acted this time and hadn’t deeply offended Feng Wuchen.

“Who exactly are these people? Why is Luoyan so afraid of them?”

“Could it be that we have offended someone from a powerful force?”

“Brother Luo addressed them as the Dan Emperor, Young Master Zhang; I do not know who they are.”

The dozen or so young masters were extremely terrified, and the high-ranking members of the major clans were in a panic, feeling increasingly alarmed. If Luoyan was this fearful, they were even less capable of provoking them.

Now, looking closely, they realized that Feng Wuchen and his group were not the least bit panic-stricken and that each was young but possessed astonishing cultivation—undoubtedly geniuses.

Then looking at Feng Wuchen, even the powerful Bei Dou Yan had to listen to him. What kind of status did that signify?

The more the high-ranking members of the major clans thought about it, the more panicked they became, fearing that they really had offended someone from a powerful influence.

The many cultivators watching in Yueyun City were both shocked and perplexed.

“Zhang… Young Master Zhang! The Artifact Refining Family’s Young Master Zhang! The Mainland’s number one Artifact Refiner! It’s him! It’s him!” Young Master Gongsun cried out in extreme terror.

It seemed that Young Master Gongsun recognized Zhang Junlan; otherwise, he wouldn’t have known the title of the Mainland’s number one Artifact Refiner.

“What? The Zhang family from the Wuji Domain!” Hearing what Young Master Gongsun said, the dozen or so young masters’ complexions drastically changed, as they were all scared out of their wits.

“The Mainland’s number one Artifact Refiner! He is… he is the Zhang family’s Young Master Zhang Junlan!”

“We’re done for! We’re done for! Having offended Young Master Zhang, we’re surely dead!”

“The Wuji Domain’s Zhang family!”

The dozen or so young masters were utterly panic-stricken, and the high-ranking clan members were filled with extreme fear.

“Good heavens! It’s actually Young Master Zhang from the Wuji Domain’s Zhang family! The Mainland’s number one Artifact Refiner!”

“It’s actually the renowned Zhang Junlan from the Mainland!”

“The Ge family is finished! The Wang family too! Having offended Young Master Zhang, there is no doubt that they will die!”

The onlookers felt as if a great mountain was pressing on their backs, so heavy they couldn’t breathe, and that mountain was none other than the Wuji Domain’s Zhang family!

“Last time in the Desolate Domain, I spared you. Now you dare to interfere again!” Liu Qingyang said coldly.

“Dan Emperor, Young Master Zhang, we truly did not know that they had offended you; otherwise, even with a hundred times the courage, we would not have dared to intervene. Please, Dan Emperor, forgive us!” A disciple explained in terror, immediately falling to their knees in the void.

Luoyan and a few others also hurriedly knelt down, explaining, “Dan Emperor, every word my junior brother has said is true; we truly did not know.”

Seeing Luoyan and the others kneel in terror, the various clans were even more disheartened, just how fearsome were the identities of Feng Wuchen and his group? Even the disciples of the Purple Cloud Pavilion had to kneel and beg for mercy.

And it was Feng Wuchen they were kneeling to; could it be that Feng Wuchen’s identity was even more frightening than Zhang Junlan’s?

What does Dan Emperor mean? Why did Luoyan call this youth the Dan Emperor?

All the fearful glances fell on Feng Wuchen, a mysterious and frightening young man.

Feng Wuchen stepped forward in the void, extending his right hand toward the terror-stricken Luoyan, whose heart skipped a beat as he fearfully kowtowed, “Dan Emperor, spare my life! Dan Emperor, spare my life, please! We really didn’t know.”

A cold sweat had completely soaked Luoyan’s back.

The moment Feng Wuchen’s claw touched Luoyan’s shoulder, Luoyan trembled violently, thinking that Feng Wuchen had surely decided to kill him.

But the next second, Luoyan was stunned.

Feng Wuchen did not kill him; instead, he lifted him up and asked indifferently, “Do you recognize any of them?”

Upon hearing this, Luoyan was slightly startled, not understanding what Feng Wuchen meant.

Nevertheless, Luoyan dared not hesitate and immediately pointed out six young masters he knew. Then, looking at Feng Wuchen with terror, Luoyan could not fathom Feng Wuchen’s thoughts and did not dare to guess.

Feng Wuchen nodded slightly and said with a faint smile, “In consideration of your face, I’ll overlook those you know. Those you do not know, you kill them all.”

Hearing this, Luoyan was shocked, his eyes widening in disbelief as he looked at Feng Wuchen.

Luoyan found it hard to believe that Feng Wuchen would actually say he was letting those he knew off the hook, for his sake. And the others he didn’t know, to kill them all!

What shocked Luoyan wasn’t the killing of those strangers, but that Feng Wuchen would say it was for his sake!

“Kill them all?” Dong Zhantian felt a jolt in his mind, horrified, “Teacher said it right; the old teacher is indeed terrifying.”

Hearing Feng Wuchen’s words, the six young masters pointed out by Luoyan, including Ge Yunfeng, immediately breathed a sigh of relief, while those not named sank into complete despair.

“Dan Emperor, spare our lives!”

“Dan Emperor, spare our lives! We did not know of the Dan Emperor’s identity and had no intention of offending. We implore the Dan Emperor to forgive us!”

“Dan Emperor! We shouldn’t have been arrogant or bullied others with our power. We realize our mistake, please, Dan Emperor, spare our lives!”

“`

The remaining young masters all knelt down in the void and kowtowed for mercy, each with a crying tone.

Let alone the fact that they were all seriously injured, even at their peak, they were no match for Luoyan, who could kill them as easily as flipping his hand.

“Luoyan, do I need my teacher to personally teach you what to do?” Seeing Luoyan’s flustered but nonresponsive face, Zhang Junlan coldly chided in a low voice.

Luoyan suddenly snapped to attention and struck without hesitation, his True Yuan terrifying as it activated and his killing intent wildly swept through the air.

“Whiz!”

“Boom!”

With a ferocious move, Luoyan flashed forward, a punch thundered down, causing a booming explosion, and on the spot, a young master was blasted into a mist of blood!

“Brother Luoyan, spare my life….”

“Boom!”

Luoyan struck again, another punch, another instant kill of a young master.

“Big Brother Luoyan, don’t kill me! Don’t kill me! Brother Ge, save me!” A young master’s pale face was filled with despair—a fear of death.

Ge Yunfeng was lucky enough to save his own life; how could he dare to intervene?

Besides, Ge Yunfeng had no right to intervene; he simply wasn’t capable.

“To offend the Pill Emperor is to die!” Luoyan shouted angrily, showing no mercy.

Feng Wuchen might spare someone for his sake, which already amazed Luoyan, so how could he dare to show mercy and disobey Feng Wuchen’s orders?

“Luoyan, my father is the City Lord of Tianding City, you can’t kill me! If you kill me, my father will never spare you!” The young City Lord of Tianding City said in fear, even dragging his own father into it.

“Tianding City? Hmph! Let your father find me at Purple Cloud Pavilion!” Luoyan snorted coldly, not putting Tianding City in his eyes at all!

“No! No!” The young City Lord of Tianding City roared in terror.

“Boom!”

Luoyan exploded into action like lightning, a punch to the chest of the young City Lord of Tianding City. With a loud explosion, the terrifying force turned him into a mist of blood, his soul scattered.

“Boom, boom, boom!”

Luoyan struck repeatedly, showing no mercy, one by one killing the young masters.

In less than a minute, eleven young masters were mercilessly killed by Luoyan.

His brutal methods shocked everyone present, scaring the onlookers until their souls nearly fled their bodies; their faces so pale, they looked like they’d had a layer of putty scraped over them, paler than a dead man’s.

“The Pill Emperor, they have all been killed.” Luoyan reported respectfully, treating Feng Wuchen as his master.

“Well done. I will speak to your Pavilion Master on your behalf later, to have you follow me; I believe the Pavilion Master of Purple Cloud Pavilion will not refuse,” Feng Wuchen nodded his head in satisfaction.

“Thank you, Pill Emperor! Thank you, Pill Emperor!” The instant Luoyan heard these words, he was wildly elated and extremely excited.

Luoyan simply couldn’t believe it; he couldn’t believe it was true. He actually had the chance to follow the Pill Emperor, something countless people dreamed of.

Luoyan couldn’t believe such good fortune had fallen into his lap!

After all, the Pill Emperor was Zhang Junlan’s teacher! Not to mention how bright the future would be!

Now looking back, Luoyan was secretly grateful for enmity with Feng Wuchen in the Desolate Domain, otherwise, he wouldn’t have had this opportunity to meet Feng Wuchen, let alone today’s chance.

Luoyan was barely over twenty-five this year, a genius with the cultivation of the Tianyuan Realm Eightfold at such an age, a talent in the Purple Cloud Pavilion.

With such talent, Feng Wuchen naturally wanted him for his own use, to fully prepare for the establishment of his power.

“Thank you, Pill Emperor, for not killing us!” Ge Yunfeng and the others, after waking up from their shock, knelt down one after another to give thanks.

Feng Wuchen’s gaze swept towards Ge Yunfeng and the others, and he spoke indifferently, “You have escaped the death penalty, but you will not escape the punishment.”

The instant they heard these words, Ge Yunfeng and the six others’ faces changed drastically as fear surged in their hearts again.

But then again, having offended such a terrifying figure, being spared death was already very good.

“Since you’ve made a mistake, you must pay a certain price,” Feng Wuchen said indifferently, and had it not been for the need to recruit Luoyan, Feng Wuchen would not have spared the six of them.

“Do you have any objections?” Feng Wuchen asked.

Ge Yunfeng and the six others did not speak, only fear, not knowing what Feng Wuchen would do to them. They had kept their lives, but what if Feng Wuchen destroyed their Qi Sea or crippled their limbs?

Ge Yunfeng looked to Luoyan for help with pleading eyes, but Luoyan simply did not spare him a glance, leaving him utterly disappointed.

At this time, Luoyan couldn’t, and didn’t want to, help him.

“No… no objections,” Ge Yunfeng said with a trembling voice, they had no choice, and to object at such a critical moment would be suicidal.

The senior members of the great families dared not speak up, aside from worry and fear, they couldn’t do anything.

Feng Wuchen gave a slight smile, and said, “Since there are no objections, good. Luoyan, break an arm of each of them as a lesson. If there is a next time, they die.”

“Yes!” Luoyan answered respectfully, not daring to hesitate.

Upon hearing Feng Wuchen’s words, Ge Yunfeng and the others were utterly dumbfounded, their faces overcome with hopelessness and fear!

Breaking an arm was tantamount to becoming a cripple!

Of course, this was better than becoming someone who couldn’t cultivate or losing their life; being alive was better than anything else.
