Chapter 175 Triumphant Return (5187 words)

"Boom!"

A deafening roar came from the sky...

A gigantic hand, as large as a mountain, pressed down on Hongquan!

Chen Fan stared in disbelief: "Holy crap, the Tathagata Palm!"

Then, Hong Quan, who had been desperately trying to escape, coughed up blood, knelt down, and put his hands on the ground, trembling uncontrollably!

Before the giant hand could even press down, Hong Quan's entire body was shoved into the ground with a loud bang!

Centered on Hongquan, a huge depression has appeared!

Immediately, the enormous hand vanished without a trace.

With a flash, Yun Canghai landed on the edge of the pit with his hands behind his back.

Sigh, no wonder he's known as one of the two kings of showing off...

She's always pretending to be something she's not.

Chen Fan waved his hand sharply and said, "Brother Yun, there's one more here!"

Yun Canghai turned around and made a grasping motion with his hand!

"call!"

The Fear Demon, still screaming in agony, took to the air and flew towards Yun Canghai.

Just as we reached a position about ten meters in front of Yun Canghai...

Yun Canghai bent his five fingers and gently grasped.

"Pfft!"

It was as if an invisible giant hand had grabbed the head of the fear demon and crushed it to pieces!

"boom!"

The enormous fear demon crashed heavily to the ground, without a sound.

Chen Fan darted over, grabbed his longsword, and searched inside the horrible head of the Fear Demon, finding its crystal core.

The four black-armored warriors: "..."

Yun Canghai glanced at Chen Fan. After being shocked by the sonic waves of the Fear Demon and bleeding from all seven orifices, Chen Fan casually wiped the blood off his face, but his appearance became even more frightening.

If it weren't for Yun Canghai's powerful spiritual energy, which allowed him to sense that Chen Fan's injuries weren't serious, he might have thought Chen Fan was critically injured and dying upon seeing him like this.

Even so, Yun Canghai couldn't help but ask, "Chen Fan, are you alright?"

"Huh?" Chen Fan smiled. "It's alright, but I was accidentally hit by that fear demon's sonic attack and bled quite a bit."

As he spoke, he pointed to the spring in the crater and said, "Brother Yun, you didn't kill that old monster, did you?"

Yun Canghai said, "No, I crippled him and then sealed his cultivation."

"His cultivation has been sealed?" Chen Fan was overjoyed, jumped into the pit, and kicked Hong Quan: "Stop pretending to be dead, get up and keep partying!"

Hong Quan: "..."

The four black-armored warriors: "..."

Chen Fan flipped Hong Quan over.

Hong Quan, lying on the ground with his face covered in blood, glared fiercely at Chen Fan.

"..." Chen Fan froze for a moment, then stomped on Hong Quan's face, yelling, "You bastard, you dare to scare me?"

"Come on, keep glaring at me, keep glaring!"

Chen Fan said one thing and then kicked Hong Quan.

Yun Canghai remained silent.

The four black-armored experts glanced at Yun Canghai, and seeing that he didn't speak, they also remained silent.

After Chen Fan vented his anger, a woman walked over and, with a click, put a pair of specially made handcuffs on Hong Quan's hands.

A circular steel hoop that flashed red light was also fastened around Hong Quan's neck.

Seeing this, Chen Fan kicked Hong Quan a few more times: "Where did you hide Lin Xiao's parents?"

Hong Quan's face was contorted with rage as he hissed, "As expected... as expected, it was that beast Lin Xiao who betrayed me!"

"You want me to reveal the whereabouts of his parents?"

"Give up on that idea!"

"That old fool..." Chen Fan couldn't help but shake his head and say, "What use is it for you to hide Lin Xiao's parents? Do you think you can use them to threaten Donghai City?"

"You used the Lin family, and then you used them as pawns..."

"But aren't you also a pawn abandoned by the Nightmare's Court?"

"Lin Xiao's parents are worthless to you, and equally worthless to the Nightmare Court."

"If you hand over the person, you'll suffer less."

Hong Quan's eye twitched, but he didn't say anything.

Chen Fan turned his head and looked at the four black-armored experts, saying, "Could you gentlemen do me a favor?"

The four people immediately came over.

Chen Fan said, "Go past here, out of the forest, walk west along the cliff edge for about seven or eight hundred meters, and you'll find a large crevice."

"I placed Zhen Qing, the heavily injured deputy leader of the War God Pioneer Group, inside that crevice."

"Could you please bring this over for me?"

Yun Canghai was taken aback: "Junior Sister Zhen Qing is here too? And seriously injured?"

Before Chen Fan could speak or the four could react, Yun Canghai vanished in a flash.

Chen Fan: "..."

After a moment of silence, Chen Fan sent his location to Lin Xiao and then explained that Hong Quan had been captured.

After doing all this, he didn't waste any more words and directly took out a bottle of itching powder.

Hong Quan was taken aback: "What do you want to do?"

"I don't intend to do anything," Chen Fan said calmly. "After you're taken back to Donghai City, you'll definitely experience all sorts of torture."

"Before you go through those tortures, I want you to taste the 'itchy fruit' first, so you can get used to it."

"I heard that Star Power Armor can block this powder for those at the fourth rank or above?"

"I've heard that those at the fourth rank or higher can also use star power to expel toxins from their bodies?"

"Let me conduct an experiment first..."

Chen Fan pinched Hong Quan's mouth shut, preparing to pour the powder from the plastic bottle into the latter's mouth.

Hong Quan panicked and stammered, "I'll talk! I'll talk!"

If his cultivation had not been sealed by Yun Canghai, he would naturally not be afraid of the Itchy Fruit powder.

but……

Chen Fan released his mouth and tilted his head: "What did you say?"

Hong Quan said viciously, "I've hidden Lin Xiao's parents in a cave on the northeast side of Qilin Mountain."

"Outside the cave, there is a five-pointed maple tree and a linden tree."

"Deep within the cave, there is a fissure that leads directly to the summit of Qilin Mountain... Therefore, the Nightmare Court placed another key point of the great formation deep within that cave."

The four black-armored experts immediately widened their eyes.

Chen Fan narrowed his eyes slightly: "Are there people from the Nightmare Court guarding the depths of that cave?"

"No," Hong Quan said. "I'm in charge of that one key point of the formation, while Lin Xiao and the other two are in charge of the key point of the formation on Crescent Mountain."

"I came here after discovering that the key point of the Crescent Moon Mountain formation had been broken."

Chen Fan turned to look at the four black-armored experts.

One of the women tapped on her smartwatch and sent the message.

Then, she looked at Chen Fan and said, "I have already sent the Black Armor Army from near Qilin Mountain over there."

"We should get news soon."

A moment later, a figure flashed in the air.

Yun Canghai is back.

He brought back more than just the seriously injured Zhen Qing.

There are also Lin Xiao and his sister.

Lin Yuanyuan stared wide-eyed at Chen Fan, then at Hong Quan on the ground, completely bewildered by what had happened.

Lin Xiao walked over slowly, glanced at Chen Fan, and hesitated before speaking.

A powerful man in black armor stepped forward and, with a click, handcuffed Lin Xiao's hands.

Then, with another snap, a steel band was fastened around Lin Xiao's neck.

Lin Xiao remained motionless and offered no resistance.

Lin Yuanyuan was horrified and seemed to go crazy: "What are you doing? Why are you arresting my brother!"

"Chen Fan, why are you targeting my brother!"

She rushed over, trying to pull the black-armored warrior away.

The black-armored expert raised his hand and delivered a chop to Lin Yuanyuan's neck.

Lin Yuanyuan groaned and fainted. She was caught by the female black-armored expert next to her and carried to the side.

Lin Xiao watched all of this silently, continuing to remain silent.

At this moment, Chen Fan said softly, "I just got the whereabouts of your parents from Old Monster Hong."

"Currently, powerful warriors in black armor have already gone to provide assistance."

Lin Xiao smiled, her eyes reddening, and nodded slightly to Chen Fan: "Thank you!"

Chen Fan frowned and turned to look at one of the black-armored warriors with a scar on his forehead.

When these four fought against Hong Quan, the other three were following his orders.

Chen Fan said, "Under Hong Quan's instigation, Lin Xiao joined the Nightmare Court, provided information to the Nightmare Court, and facilitated the Nightmare Court's entry into the secret realm near Donghai City... I don't want to defend him for these things."

"After you have completed your investigation, punish them as appropriate."

"But this time, it was he who saved Donghai City."

"He led me to Crescent Mountain and found the array's core on the mountain. Finally, he reminded me to contact East Sea City and use the 'Starlight Destruction Cannon' to destroy the array's core."

Hong Quan, lying on the ground, had a contorted, terrifying face as he roared, "Lin Xiao, you beast... it really was you who did this!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the female black-armored powerhouse who had handcuffed him took out a controller and gently tapped it on Hong Quan.

"Sizzle sizzle sizzle!"

Electric currents were released from both the handcuffs and the steel hoop around his neck, causing Hong Quan to convulse and his whole body to smoke!

Not satisfied with that, Chen Fan stomped on Hong Quan's mouth, breaking both of Hong Quan's front teeth.

At this moment, the black-armored expert with a scar on his forehead said in a deep voice, "Don't worry, we will definitely investigate this thoroughly!"

Lin Xiao glanced at Chen Fan gratefully again.

Yun Canghai glanced around and said calmly, "I'll take Chen Fan and Zhen Qing back to Donghai City first, and you can follow behind."

The four black-armored experts nodded in unison.

The four beasts that had been guarding the perimeter immediately surrounded them.

Just as Chen Fan was about to speak, his body was lifted up by a force and shot straight into the sky!

With Chen Fan on his left and Zhen Qing on his right, Yun Canghai rushed towards Donghai City at an incredibly fast speed.

Behind them, four black-armored experts used their beast taming abilities to carry Lin Xiao and the other two, and quickly caught up.

Chen Fan was about to speak, but after seeing the scene below, he immediately shut his mouth.

At the foot of Crescent Mountain, countless strange insects covered almost the entire earth.

Those strange insects were only one or two meters long, and their size was not very large.

But the number is just too much...

Looking ahead and looking back, the view stretches as far as the eye can see.

When Chen Fan recalled the scene of the swarm of Heavenly Fire Ants on Mount Ten Thousand Beasts, a feeling of powerlessness suddenly rose in his heart.

That's how the world of monsters is.

Both the previous swarm of Skyfire Ants and this current swarm were caused by Nightmare Court.

But I've heard that before the Nightmare Court caused trouble, similar things happened in many other major cities, such as Eastsea City.

The large plaque bearing Chu Xuan's name hangs at the entrance of the War God Academy. It's said that during a swarm of insects, Chu Xuan destroyed the insect queen's lair, and was thus honored as a hero by having his name displayed there.

The scene before me is truly terrifying.

Insects everywhere...

One or two are not a big threat.

Ten or eight pieces, that's just for serving vegetables.

If there were hundreds or thousands of them, the students from the three major academies in Donghai City would probably cheer with joy.

But such a quantity...

Suddenly, a furious shout from ahead pulled Chen Fan back to reality from his thoughts.

Chen Fan looked up and saw several flying beasts in front of him, each carrying a person on its back, fighting fiercely with several flying monsters!

"What are these guys doing here in Crescent Mountain...?"

Chen Fan's expression turned strange.

Riding on the backs of the flying beasts were Chu Xuan, Ye Hao, Shen Hongxiu, and Fang Qingqing!

"Nonsense!"

Yun Canghai gave a soft shout, and his figure blurred as he rushed past like lightning.

The six monsters that attacked Chu Xuan and his companions were covered in blood, their wings were broken, and they all fell to the ground!

Chu Xuan and Shen Hongxiu were enveloped by a force, following behind Yun Canghai like kites!

This group of people completely left Chu Xuan and his flying beasts far behind!

Chen Fan turned his head, glanced at Shen Hongxiu, and then looked at Chu Xuan: "Wasn't there an insect swarm? Weren't there centaurs besieging the city? What are you doing here at Crescent Mountain?"

Chu Xuan: "I came to find you."

This guy still talks like that; if he can say something in three words, he won't add a single extra word.

Chen Fan looked at Shen Hongxiu, whose eyes were red and she was looking at Chen Fan as if he were an enemy.

Chen Fan felt a little guilty and looked at Ye Hao.

Ye Hao spoke incredibly fast: "Brother Fan, as soon as we saw your live stream, we immediately found a few flying beasts to come and help you."

"As a result, the Black Armor Army wouldn't allow us to leave the city."

"It was Ruge and Hongxiu who made a scene by crying, shouting, and threatening suicide that finally got them to send several powerful flying beasts to bring us here."

Li Fengxing shouted, "Brother Fan, where are Hong Quan and the Demon? I'm going to kill them!"

Shen Daodao rolled his eyes: "If you could cut off a single hair from that demon, then I, Daodao, would call you the strongest!"

As she spoke, Shen Daodao glanced at Zhen Qing beside her and said, "Deputy Commander Zhen, what a coincidence!"

Zhen Qing remained expressionless and ignored him.

Fang Qingqing looked at Chen Fan, whose face was covered in blood, and asked with concern, "Chen Fan... are you... are you alright? Are you badly injured?"

"I'm fine." Chen Fan shook his head. "I just accidentally got hit by that demon's sonic attack... My head is still buzzing a bit."

"That demon was killed by Brother Yun, and Hong Quan was also nearly killed by the Tathagata Palm, and then his cultivation was sealed. That's what happened next."

Before anyone else could speak, Chen Fan suddenly looked at Chu Xuan and said, "Chu Xuan, where's your red cloak? Did your grandfather steal it?"

In the previous video, Chen Fan saw that Chu Tiannan was wearing a red cloak.

Chu Xuan remained silent.

Chen Fan frowned and sighed.

Chu Xuan remained silent.

Chen Fan said, "I feel a little uncomfortable that you're not wearing a cloak. It feels a bit strange, like you're not wearing anything at all."

Henry Chu: "..."

Yun Canghai was moving extremely fast.

They had only exchanged a few words when they could already vaguely see Donghai City ahead.

The scene below made Chen Fan secretly breathe a sigh of relief.

Outside Donghai City, several enormous beasts, like moving mountains, were frantically crushing the swarm of insects.

Among them were the Titan Giant Ape that Chen Fan had seen before, as well as his senior brother Bai Tianyu's Vajra Dragon Beetle and Nine Heavens Mystic Turtle.

Among these tamed beasts, the two most powerful are the enormous octopus and the iron-eating beast.

Any attack from these beasts could wipe out a large area of ​​insects.

Although they could not completely eliminate the insect swarm in a short period of time, they did manage to separate the swarm.

The battlefields divided up by these beasts will immediately be cleared away by the strongmen and army of Donghai City!

Seeing Chen Fan focused on the battle below, Ye Hao immediately said, "Brother Fan, don't worry, there's an eighth-rank expert in Donghai City this time!"

"Look at that giant octopus, and that iron-eating beast!"

"Those are all the beasts tamed by Instructor Xu Feng from Shanghai's No. 1 Martial Arts University!"

"Each of these tamed beasts is comparable to an eighth-rank expert!"

"With such a powerful beast tamer, it won't be long before we wipe out these insect swarms and centaurs!"

Chen Fan remained silent.

No wonder every major city needs at least three Grandmaster-level figures to oversee it.

Only something like that could withstand such an impact.

Xiaobai and Gangzi are doing pretty well now; they probably won't have any rivals in the "Shanghai Martial Arts University Admission League".

But if you put it into this swarm of insects...

Chen Fan shook his head, as if trying to dispel the chaotic thoughts in his mind.

"Alright, the north gate of Donghai City is just ahead. You may all leave now."

As Yun Canghai's voice rang out, Chen Fan and Chu Xuan, along with the others, floated lightly down to the open space in front of them.

On that open ground, a group of black-armored soldiers were leading their beast tamers to wipe out the insect swarm.

Upon seeing Chen Fan and Chu Xuan land, a squad of black-armored soldiers immediately came to meet them.

The black-armored army captain waved his hand: "Master Zhang Hai is waiting for you at the City Lord's Mansion. Get on this armored vehicle!"

Chen Fan hesitated for a moment, then turned around and said, "I'll go kill some monsters first..."

Before he could finish speaking, Shen Hongxiu pushed him onto the armored vehicle.

Chen Fan: "..."

The black-armored army captain laughed and said, "Don't worry, even though those insects are still rampaging around the perimeter, the situation is under control."

"Two minutes ago, Instructor Xu Feng killed two centaur leaders, and now the centaur race has retreated like a tide."

"There are many of these insects, but none of them are particularly powerful."

"Right now, Instructor Xu Feng and Elder Qin, along with several beast tamers, are pushing outwards like bulldozers."

"Consider these insects a gift from the Nightmare's Court!"

"I heard the meat is very delicious!"

Chen Fan turned his head and happened to see Shen Hongxiu's fierce gaze.

Chen Fan blinked: "Hongxiu..."

Shen Hongxiu remained silent.

Chen Fan said, "There's a question I've been wanting to ask you."

Shen Hongxiu pursed her lips: "What's the problem?"

Ye Hao and Shen Daodao and the others also leaned over.

Chen Fan's expression turned serious. He took a deep breath before saying, "What... is it Happy Planet?"

------------

I admit, it's short and weak. I don't know if it's because yesterday's update was a bit too intense, but suddenly my mind went blank, and I felt depressed.
