Chapter 171 Senior Brother Xiang, why don’t you take action?
The sound transmission note turned into a ball of fire and disappeared in an instant.
Not long after, it appeared in a secret room in the imperial city of Chu.
A powerful man in the late stage of foundation building of the Ghost Spirit Sect was chatting with a Chu cultivator.
If Lin Fan was here, he would recognize at a glance that the Chu cultivator who was chatting with others was Xiang Yuntian who came with him to participate in the Chu Cultivation Conference.
Seeing the fireball quickly fall into the man's hands, Xiang Yuntian seemed to be normal, but he was quite curious in his heart.
"Third brother, what happened?"
The cultivator of the Ghost Spirit Sect was Xiang Yuntian's family, named Xiang Xin.
He was a famous powerful man in the late stage of foundation building of the Ghost Spirit Sect.
He had a secret art of concealment and practiced it to perfection.
This time he came to the imperial city of Chu, not to participate in the Cultivation Conference and compete for the Refining Spirit Pill, but for another important task.
"Yuntian, you have been lurking in Chu for these years, and you have become the direct disciple of the master of Guanhai Peak. You have done a good job." Xiang Xin smiled.
Xiang Yuntian was ecstatic when he heard this.
"I can achieve what I have today thanks to my third brother's cultivation. Back then, you and I were preparing to join the Ghost Spirit Sect, but you arranged for me to go to the Seven Mysterious Sect. Thinking about it now, it is still my third brother who has foresight."
Xiang Yuntian looked extremely respectful.
Xiang Xin smiled complacently.
"We are all from the Xiang family of Yan State, so why should we brothers be so polite! Over the years, your contribution to the family and the Ghost Spirit Sect has been witnessed by everyone. This time, our Ghost Spirit Sect has launched a major operation in the imperial city of Chu. If you can participate, when the Chu cultivation world is controlled by the Ghost Spirit Sect, with your contributions over the years, the Ghost Spirit Sect will definitely help you advance to the Jindan stage."
Xiang Yuntian's eyes lit up immediately.
Jindan!
This is what countless foundation-building cultivators dream of.
Xiang Yuntian was no exception.
Thinking that he had such a great opportunity this time, Xiang Yuntian naturally didn't want to miss it.
"Third brother, what are you talking about?"
"Just now, the spy deployed by our Ghost Spirit Sect in the Chu Kingdom's Imperial City found a suspicious person. This person actually sold a large number of things for demon cultivators and ghost cultivators. It must be a genius from the seven major sects of Chu Kingdom, and the spoils of killing the immortal cultivators of our Ghost Spirit Sect. If we brothers join forces to kill him, wouldn't it be another great achievement?"
"This... I wonder if Third Brother knows who this person is?"
"Although the spy didn't say it, we will know it when we go over."
"Okay!"
Xiang Yuntian agreed without hesitation.
Soon, he disappeared in the secret room with Xiang Xin.
When the two appeared again, they were already near the north gate of the Chu Kingdom's Imperial City.
At this moment, Xiang Xin had already escaped into the void.
Only Guan Tianyun was walking on the street openly.
"Third brother, let's confirm again. That person should have passed by here, right?" Xiang Yuntian said.
"No problem. You have been in Qixuan Sect for many years. Take a good look to see if there are any disciples from the seven major sects of Chu State passing by nearby. If there are, it must be this person."
"Okay!"
Xiang Yuntian agreed, and his mind quietly dispersed.
Not long after, he found a familiar figure walking towards them.
"Lin Fan?"
Xiang Yuntian looked surprised.
Then, he sneered secretly: "I didn't expect that the person that Third Brother and I wanted to kill together turned out to be him. This boy is naturally arrogant and looks down on others. Even my good friend Chen Yu died in his hands. Today, if I kill him, it can be regarded as revenge for Chen Yu."
Thinking of this, Xiang Yuntian no longer hesitated. He walked towards Lin Fan with big strides.
"Junior Brother Lin, what a coincidence?"
Lin Fan had already seen Xiang Yuntian, and he was not surprised to see him coming.
On the contrary, if Xiang Yuntian left directly, Lin Fan would still feel a little surprised.
"Is it a coincidence? Senior Brother Xiang is waiting for me here on purpose?"
Lin Fan's expression was calm.
While speaking, his clear and bright eyes secretly opened.
Xiang Xin, who was hiding in the dark, naturally could not escape Lin Fan's eyes.
"Haha, there is indeed a problem. Is Xiang Yuntian colluding with the Ghost Spirit Sect's immortal cultivators to plot against me? Or..."
Lin Fan thought of this and did not intend to act immediately.
After a moment of silence, he said, "Senior Brother Xiang, Prince Yan has a close relationship with you. Didn't he treat you well?"
Xiang Yuntian was furious.
An unnatural expression appeared on his face.
"Lin Fan, this bastard, is deliberately trying to embarrass me. But it doesn't matter. From now on, he will never have the chance to talk to me like this again." Xiang Yuntian cursed secretly.
After a pause, Xiang Yuntian said, "Prince Yan has shown great care for me, and I am grateful. Not long ago, he invited me to go to Zuiyun Mountain in the southwest of the imperial city to enjoy the scenery. I was about to go there, but I saw my junior brother. At this moment, I want to invite my junior brother to go with me. What do you think?"
Lin Fan looked normal, but he was quite contemptuous in his heart.
"Xiang Yuntian is such a pig brain. Zuiyun Mountain is in the southwest of the Chu imperial city, but this is the north gate of the Chu imperial city. You lie so perfunctorily, and you still want to kill me?"
Lin Fan sneered secretly, and the cold murderous intent in his heart seemed to be real.
Soon, he smiled again: "Senior brother really has a very good relationship with Prince Yan. Although I am a distinguished guest of the third uncle Yan Chengfeng, I still haven't received his invitation. This time, I shamelessly go with senior brother, and I hope senior brother will take care of me!"
Xiang Yuntian's eyes lit up when he heard this: "Don't worry, Junior Brother, I'm here. Even if you go, Prince Yan won't say anything. Let's go!"
While talking, Xiang Yuntian happily linked arms with Lin Fan and walked towards the north gate. It seemed that there had never been any feud between him and Lin Fan.
After leaving the north gate, Xiang Yuntian had no intention of turning back. He led Lin Fan all the way north, walking farther and farther.
When they arrived near a barren mountain more than ten miles away, Lin Fan suddenly stopped.
Seeing this, Xiang Yuntian was slightly stunned.
"Junior Brother, why don't you leave?"
"Senior Brother, I have a question. Prince Yan invited you to Zuiyun Mountain. Are you sure you only want to take me with you?"
"Haha, Junior Brother, aren't you lying with your eyes open? In addition to you and me, there is a third person here?"
Xiang Yuntian seemed to be normal, but he was extremely vigilant in his heart.
Lin Fan smiled slightly and did not argue with Xiang Yuntian. He activated the Shadow-like Secret Art and instantly disappeared into the void.
At that moment, the Soul-breaking Sword also activated rapidly.
Boom.
The Soul-breaking Sword is designed to hurt the soul. With the help of the Shadow-like Secret Art, it is invincible.
Xiang Xin, who was hiding in the dark, was hit by the Soul-breaking Sword before he could react.
"Ah!"
A piercing scream sounded, and Xiang Xin was instantly confused and completely exposed.
Lin Fan sneered and activated the Teleportation Secret Art on the spot.
With a whoosh, he disappeared directly from the spot.
When he appeared again, he was already a foot away from Xiang Xin.
"Die!"
With a loud shout, Lin Fan punched out.
Xiang Xin, who was in the late stage of foundation building and had reached the great perfection, was hit by Lin Fan's punch before he could make a move. He fell to the ground and died instantly.
Seeing this, Xiang Yuntian, who had secretly colluded with the immortal cultivators of the Yugui Sect and planned to kill Lin Fan, changed his expression drastically.
Just when he was about to run away while Lin Fan wasn't paying attention, he heard Lin Fan's indifferent voice coming from behind him.
"Brother Xiang, if you don't make a move, you may never have another chance in your life."
