Chapter 1560 This kid is no simpleton

Half a month later, Su Fan slowly returned to "Shenxiao Immortal City".

As soon as he stepped into the cave dwelling inside the city, Zhang Xuemo quickly came to greet him, hugged his arm tightly, and gently rested her head on his shoulder, her tone full of reassurance.

"Is it all done...?"

Su Fan nodded, his voice carrying a hint of understated regret.

"It went smoothly at first, but then quite a few people ran away..."

What bothered him most was that the special envoy team sent by the Upper Realm to Wangyue Heaven had already returned to the Upper Realm ahead of schedule.

According to the message sent back by Li Yunmi, all the special envoys from the upper realm in the various battlefields of the Qianlun Realm have withdrawn.

However, the clones left behind in the lower realm by those powerful figures of the human race in the upper realm did not have this good fortune.

In the eyes of the true big shots in the upper realm, these clones are no different from cultivators in the lower realm; in the end, they are nothing more than servants they keep.

As news of the deaths of hundreds of Nascent Soul Realm cultivators from various sects in Wangyue Heaven spread, the Qianlun Realm war zone was once again plunged into an uproar.

The vast majority of lower-level cultivators were unaware of the situation and remained in the dark, but many powerful figures above the Integration Realm were fully aware of the truth and were all deeply shocked.

No one expected that Su Fan would be so audacious.

Those were the lower realm avatars of many powerful figures from the Daoist sects of the upper realm. This kid not only dared to kill them, but also displayed a ruthless determination to exterminate them all.

More importantly, Su Fan's ability to so easily eliminate the upper realm clones was by no means something he could do alone; it must be inseparable from the indulgence of the major sects in Wangyue Heaven.

Nowadays, apart from a few upper realm clones who managed to escape to other planes and hide incognito, there are hardly any traces of upper realm clones left in the entire plane.

This scene also stirred the interest of other planes in the Qianlun Realm war zone.

They all sent envoys to Wangyuetian, hoping to negotiate with Su Fan in person; their purpose was self-evident.

Everyone wanted to use Su Fan to eliminate their own plane's upper-realm clones.

There was no way around it; those upper realm clones lurking within the various sects were simply too annoying.

Because of this matter, the major sects in the lower realms have long been filled with complaints.

However, since the other party was, after all, an avatar of a powerful figure from the Daoist sects of the upper realm, even if the higher-ups of various sects were dissatisfied, they really dared not easily take action against them.

Many sects have already been completely controlled by those upper realm clones and become their vassals.

Just like the "Guangfa Dao Sect" where Su Fan once belonged, it was one of the immortal sects that was firmly held in the hands of the upper realm clone.

Now, finally, a ruthless person like Su Fan has emerged, one who fears neither heaven nor earth.

He was not afraid of the threat from the human race and the Daoist sect in the upper realm, and he ruthlessly slaughtered almost all of his upper realm clones in the two planes of Changping Heaven and Wangyue Heaven.

This incident not only caused a huge uproar in the Qianlun Realm war zone, but also caused quite a stir in the Upper Realm.

The upper realm clones, scattered throughout various sects in the lower realm, are connected to different sects and families in the upper realm.

Su Fan didn't care who was behind these clones, and he was too lazy to think about such troublesome things.

Since we've already broken ties with the Daoist sects of the Upper Realm, let's just kill them all.

In fact, the decision to send Qingxuzi's true form to Changping Heaven to deal with Su Fan was made by some powerful figures from the upper realm who were in charge of the Qianlun Realm war zone in the lower realm.

However, Su Fan's indiscriminate purge immediately angered the bigwigs of other forces in the upper realm.

How dare a mere Nascent Soul cultivator from the lower realm arbitrarily kill their lower realm avatar? Who gave him the audacity?

Initially, the bigwigs of the major powers in the upper realm all wanted to send people down to the lower realm to kill Su Fan, but after inquiring about Su Fan's achievements, they all gave up the idea.

This kid is no ordinary person.

He not only killed Qingxuzi's true form, but also single-handedly killed the true form of a great demon that had descended to the mortal realm.

Although Qingxuzi was only considered a rogue cultivator in the Upper Realm, his strength was already extremely formidable. Even his true form was destroyed by Su Fan, so the big shots of other forces were naturally intimidated.

The problem is, who should we send?

If another person were to be lost, the loss would be enormous.

Cultivators from the upper realm are extremely precious; if they were to die at the hands of an ant from the lower realm, they would lose all face.

But Su Fan clearly had no intention of stopping his attack. If he continued to kill like this, the various forces' plans in the lower realm would collapse sooner or later.

It is important to know that cultivating an avatar in the lower realm is by no means an easy task.

It requires carefully selecting exceptionally talented individuals from among the Qi Refining stage cultivators and nurturing them. Even so, whether they can cultivate to the Body Integration stage depends on their own destiny, and it will take at least nearly ten thousand years.

Not to mention that if the seeds are damaged or die during this period, everything has to be started all over again.

Therefore, some powerful figures had to change their minds and prepare to send people down to the mortal realm to negotiate with Su Fan.

At least he should be stopped from killing indiscriminately. Whoever provokes him, he should kill their clone. Why drag others into it?

As dusk fell, the setting sun, like blood, dyed most of the sky red, and its afterglow enveloped the entire Divine Firmament Immortal City, adding a touch of tranquility.

Su Fan and Zhang Xuemo lingered until the afternoon before resting. Now they were snuggling together, sitting by the pool, enjoying a rare moment of peace and quiet.

Just then, the communication array plate at Su Fan's waist began to vibrate slightly.

He took off the array plate and glanced at it, discovering that it was a message sent by Li Yunmi.

"Now that you have returned, senior brother, is this a convenient time for you...?"

"It's convenient... Come over here..." Su Fan tapped his fingertip to send a reply.

A moment later, the protective array outside the cave was activated, and Zhang Xuemo got up and went out, quickly leading the others in.

"Greetings, Senior Brother Su Fan..."

Li Yunmi and the others stepped into the hall and immediately bowed deeply in worship.

Su Fan waved his hand, signaling them to get up and sit down.

“Senior brother, these are the junior brothers from Shenxiao Immortal Palace…” Li Yunmi stepped forward and introduced them in a low voice.

Since arriving in Shenxiao Immortal City, Su Fan has never met anyone from Shenxiao Immortal Palace.

However, the first thing he eliminated was the several upper realm clones within this sect, and he also received the active cooperation of the people from the Divine Firmament Immortal Palace.

After everyone was seated, the elderly man with white hair who was at the head of the group stood up first, cupped his hands in a respectful bow to Su Fan, and spoke in a respectful tone.

"Senior brother, I am Zhao Zichang, the sect leader of Shenxiao Immortal Palace. I have only come to pay my respects today, and I hope you will forgive me..."

Su Fan waved his hand again and laughed.

"It's alright... You didn't need to come here on purpose, and I had no intention of showing my face here..."

At this point, he changed the subject, a resolute glint in his eyes.

"I've just returned. After a short rest, I'll help you break through the demon race's defenses in three days..."

Upon hearing this, Zhao Zichang and the other old monsters of the Divine Firmament Immortal Palace who had reached the Integration Realm were overjoyed. They immediately rose from their seats and bowed deeply in worship once again.

"Thank you so much, Senior Brother! If you ever need my help in the future, please don't hesitate to ask. My Divine Firmament Immortal Palace will certainly do its utmost to assist you..."

Su Fan chuckled inwardly; he had no other demands.

Those old guys in the Qianlun Realm war zone have already paid up.

"I have no requirements. Just follow my orders when the time comes..." he said calmly.

After exchanging a few more pleasantries, Zhao Zichang and the others got up to say goodbye and go back to make preparations.

Before leaving, Zhao Zichang deliberately left behind a storage ring.

After everyone left, Su Fan picked up the storage ring and scanned it with his divine sense, immediately understanding its contents.

It was filled with rare cultivation materials, as well as many treasures bestowed by the upper realm.

This was probably a sum of money pooled together by the various sects of Wangyue Heaven, who were probably worried that he wouldn't put in the effort. At this moment, Zhang Xuemo returned after seeing someone off, and Su Fan casually tossed her the storage ring.

"You can keep this..."

To everyone's surprise, Zhang Xuemo didn't even look at it before throwing the storage ring back, her tone indifferent.

"Senior brother, I am a sword cultivator; these things are useless to me..."

Depend on……

Su Fan slapped his forehead, realizing he had forgotten about that.

The Sword Maniac has never been obsessed with external things. She has only cultivated one sword technique in her life. In her eyes, these rare and precious materials are indeed not as good as a handy flying sword.

Don't give up...

Su Fan put away the storage ring, then suddenly had an idea and took out another storage ring, throwing it to Zhang Xuemo.

"Take a look at this, it might come in handy..."

Zhang Xuemo took the storage ring and probed it with her divine sense. She found it to be empty except for a beast tooth that gleamed with a ghostly light lying quietly inside.

"Senior brother... this is..." She looked up at Su Fan, her eyes full of doubt.

Su Fan grinned and said, "These are the true beast teeth of that great demon from the upper realm. Do you want them? If not, I'll take them back..."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Xuemo was jolted, her eyes widening in disbelief.

The true form of a great demon from the upper realm: a beast's tooth.

This is an extremely rare and top-grade material for refining weapons in the lower realms. If it were incorporated into a flying sword, the sword's power would definitely experience a qualitative leap.

Without a second thought, she gripped the storage ring tightly in her hand, rolled her eyes at Su Fan, and spoke with a hint of coquettishness.

"You think you can take it back after I've given it to you? Dream on..."

As soon as she finished speaking, she quickly stepped forward, wrapped her arms around Su Fan's waist, and said in a soft, sweet voice.

"Thanks, sir..."

"How do you plan to thank me?" Su Fan raised an eyebrow and put his arm around her waist.

"Whatever you want..."

Despite being a ruthless swordsman, Zhang Xuemo is incredibly passionate when she's in love, and even Su Fan, who is strong and healthy, can't quite handle it.

He laughed and picked her up by the waist, turning to walk into the house. But before he could even step inside, a slightly sinister thought entered his mind.

"Boy... when are you planning to use that Mahayana realm corpse in your possession as a blood sacrifice...?"

Ever since he killed Qingxuzi, this thought from the powerful figure of the Upper Realm Witch Clan has appeared from time to time, and Su Fan has politely refused it each time.

What beautiful things are you thinking about?

Those are the remains of a Mahayana cultivator; how can they be used for blood sacrifice at will?

Moreover, Qingxuzi's remains had already been taken by Laolong Ligao.

The old dragon had warned him that even if an old monster from the upper realm died and his soul dissipated, his remains might still contain a wisp of remnant soul or a backup plan, and he could easily fall victim to it if he wasn't careful.

In the early hours of the morning, the night was as dark as ink, and the darkness stretched as far as the eye could see.

All around was quiet and still, with only the bright moon hanging high in the sky. The cool moonlight shone on the pond next to the thatched hut, creating shimmering ripples that made the hut seem even more lonely.

Su Fan gently removed the arm wrapped around his waist and tiptoed up from the couch.

It seems that he was too happy to have obtained the true form of the great demon's tooth yesterday, and Zhang Xuemo kept him up for most of the night. He is now sleeping soundly.

Su Fan walked out of the thatched hut, exited his personal secret realm, and stepped straight into the Yin Gathering Secret Realm.

He arrived at the gloomy and terrifying valley, walked to the stone platform, sat cross-legged, and his gaze fell on the oil lamp magic weapon beside him.

"Kid, you're here to see Old Dragon, aren't you? That old bastard's been causing trouble down there for over a month, who knows what he's up to..." The voice of Evil Buddha Old Wang came from the oil lamp.

Su Fan nodded. The fact that Old Dragon Li Gao went to such lengths suggests that Qing Xu Zi's remains likely contained a hidden trump card.

Although the old dragon is now only a remnant soul, it was once a true dragon with a realm far above the Mahayana realm, so it's normal to be wary.

"Kid, you're really something now. You can even kill the true body of a Mahayana cultivator in the Upper Realm..." Old Wang's tone was full of admiration.

"Just lucky," Su Fan replied calmly.

"You've got to be kidding me. You've never told the truth. That forbidden lightning technique you used back then terrified me, even when I was hiding under an oil lamp..."

Old Wang chuckled, then changed the subject, his tone revealing a hint of curiosity.

"What do you plan to do with the corpse of that Mahayana Realm old monster? Are you going to refine it into a flying zombie...?"

Su Fan listened without commenting.

Actually, he hadn't figured out how to handle it yet, and decided to wait until Lao Long left Gao and came out of the pass before making a decision.

However, he felt it was a bit of a waste to simply refine the corpse of a Mahayana cultivator into a flying zombie.

Suddenly, Su Fan frowned, and his figure vanished from the spot in an instant.

He left the Gathering Yin Secret Realm directly and stepped into the void.

Although he had already scanned the cave entrance and its surroundings several times with his divine sense, he had not found anything unusual.

But that seemingly indistinct gaze fell upon him with unmistakable certainty.

That's why Su Fan decisively entered the void, observing the outside world through an invisible transparent barrier.

The fact that the other party could silently evade his divine sense detection meant that they could not possibly be a cultivator from the lower realm; they were most likely beings from the upper realm.

However, what descended from the upper realm this time should be a phantom clone.

Su Fan concealed himself in the void, not in a hurry to reveal himself, but calmed down and waited patiently.

As expected, within the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, a slightly aged thought entered his mind.

"Boy, you can actually traverse the void at will. Could it be that you have some connection with the evil sect's 'Path of Rebirth'..."

What the heck...

Su Fan cursed inwardly; he had never heard of any such thing as the Path of Rebirth.

It must be some heretical sect from the upper realm; just hearing that lousy name gives off an air of wickedness.

"Your descent to the mortal realm wouldn't be merely for idle chatter with a junior, would it? Please speak frankly..."

Su Fan responded telepathically, his tone indifferent.

I don't have time to waste here with your nonsense.

Damn it, if you really piss me off, I don't care who you are, I'll wipe out this phantom clone of yours first.

He had previously encountered a phantom clone from the upper realm, the old guy who had exchanged the Ancient Thunder Dao forbidden technique with him.

At that time, his strength was limited. Although the opponent was just a phantom clone, that old guy could easily kill him with just his divine sense.

Things are different now; Su Fan is no longer the same person he used to be.

Don't tell me the other party is just a phantom clone; he wouldn't be afraid even if the real body descended.

However, Su Fan thought again that since the other party only dared to descend as a phantom clone, it meant that this descent was definitely not to fight him.

With that thought in mind, Su Fan no longer hesitated, stepped out of the void, and his figure steadily appeared in the courtyard of the cave.

As soon as he appeared, a hazy, indistinct figure materialized out of thin air on the opposite side of the courtyard, facing him from afar.
