Flaunt and unbridled

Chapter 431: Arrogance and Presumption

At this moment, everyone exclaimed, because Lin Fan’s arrival was also accompanied by magnificent phenomena, with every step giving birth to a green lotus, resonating with the Great Dao.

It was as if he was the Son of the Great Dao, a banished immortal descending upon the world!

Especially the golden Qi and blood, boundless and surging, like a blazing immortal furnace brought forth, shaking people’s bodies and souls.

Purple Qi came from the east, and Purple Sun Celestial Monarch, within the purple sun, looked at the approaching young man with a solemn expression.

“Showing off, as if others can’t do it?”

Lin Fan’s lips curled slightly as he appeared at the mountain gate, radiant like the morning glow, exuding an ethereal aura.

At this time, he was flawless and pure, with golden light surging throughout his body, even his hair was tinged with a crystalline luster.

This was astonishing!

When still, he was like a divine lotus rooted in a tranquil lake, embodying the Dao of nature; when moving, he was like a divine devil dancing in the Nine Heavens, intimidating all directions.

“Whoosh!”

Lin Fan took a step, like an arrow leaving the bowstring, disappearing from his original spot with incredible speed, arriving in mid-air to confront the other person.

The next moment, the Void Realm boomed, and everywhere he passed, explosions erupted, with one green lotus after another emanating Chaos Qi.

Many people were startled, their eyes filled with dread; this person was too terrifying, absolutely capable of contending with the strongest individuals within the academy.

“Are you demonstrating against me?” A voice came from the purple sun in the sky, emitting dazzling purple light, incredibly terrifying.

Around him, colorful light shimmered, and auspicious Qi cascaded down like a waterfall, strand by strand, countering the Chaos green lotus.

As for Purple Sun Celestial Monarch, he was enveloped in a hazy purple mist, no one could see his true face, as if he stood in a distant domain outside.

Only when his eyes opened and closed could one sense his vibrant life essence, indicating a living being stood there.

Moreover, no one expected Purple Sun Celestial Monarch to suddenly emerge from seclusion, come to Wolong Land, and confront this newly arrived formidable individual.

“Will the two of them fight?” Someone wondered.

Logically speaking, the two had never met before this, so there should be no grievances between them, so why would they suddenly be at loggerheads?

“Could it be that he came to avenge the deceased Silver Wei?”

A man whispered, then shook his head, dismissing the possibility.

In the Immortal Academy, Purple Sun Celestial Monarch had always been in secluded cultivation, consistently low-key, with very few close acquaintances, and Silver Wei was certainly not among them.

“That’s what I should be asking you. Running to block my mountain gate first thing in the morning, what do you mean?” Lin Fan’s words were cold.

Across from him, Purple Sun Celestial Monarch’s majestic aura shone in the sky, and he questioned, “Is the disappearance of my older sister, Zi Ningshuang, related to you?”

As soon as these words were spoken, people’s expressions changed, as if they had thought of something.

“I remember now, a few months ago, the Pearl of Purple Mansion disappeared in Starfall City of Boundless Heaven, and her whereabouts are still unknown.”

“Furthermore, her fiancé, Jin Hong, who was traveling with her, was confirmed to have died in a mountain forest outside the city.”

“Not only that, someone found a stone tablet where Jin Hong died, speculating that Zi Ningshuang, dissatisfied with Jin Hong, conspired with an outsider to kill him, and then eloped.”

“Because of this, the ChangSheng Jin Family and Purple Mansion had a considerable conflict, the original marriage alliance broke down, and they are still searching for the culprit.”

A group of people discussed animatedly, but they were puzzled as to what this had to do with Lin Fan. Could there be another hidden story?

Because, as far as they knew, the person who eloped with Zi Ningshuang was a man named Di Chong, who seemed to come from some Immortal Palace.

However, they had never heard of such a Dao tradition; there was no force called “Immortal Palace” in the Nine Heavens.

However, in response to Purple Sun Celestial Monarch’s question, Lin Fan shrugged, feigning ignorance, “I don’t even know what you’re talking about.”

“Stop pretending. I have a portrait here that confirms you were also in Starfall City that day and had a dispute with Jin Hong.”

Purple Sun Celestial Monarch spoke directly, even producing a portrait, which depicted Lin Fan and Yue Chan drinking together in the Eight Treasures Restaurant that day.

“What can a painting prove? If your sister is missing, go find him. I don’t have time to play games with you.” Lin Fan said indifferently.

In broad daylight, he certainly wouldn't admit to having done it.

“Young man, do you think you can hide it from us?”

“We found Jin Hong’s blood at the scene and asked a Senior Supreme to use a secret technique to restore the truth!”

A voice came, startling those present, their large eyes turning, deep in thought.

When one’s strength reaches a certain Realm, one can deduce too many things from a drop of blood or a piece of bone, even ancient secrets.

It is said that in the previous era, long-lived beings could even manifest past events with great Dao, reproducing things from hundreds of thousands of years ago.

Hearing them say this, Lin Fan fell silent, not uttering a word. It seemed that some of the things he had done had, after all, been exposed.

No need to think much, with a Supreme-level figure making a move, even one’s appearance could be manifested and clearly seen by others.

Lin Fan had a headache; he had forgotten this detail. He had been full of vigor when killing, only caring about collecting spoils.

“How dare you touch someone from my ChangSheng Jin Family? You’re seeking death!”

From afar, another voice rang out, like a rolling thunderclap, with sound waves sweeping through the sky like a tide, shaking people’s minds.

Everyone’s heart jumped. Which important figure had arrived?

Lin Fan’s eyes shifted; he understood without much thought that his enemies had come knocking, and the Jin Family was also involved.

However, he didn’t feel much fear. One must know that this place was the Immortal Academy; he didn’t believe those old monsters would tolerate these people being so arrogant.

“Who is making such a racket here, daring to shout in the Immortal Academy? Do you not want to live?” Lin Fan loudly rebuked.

“Young man, are you talking to me? Do you want to be killed immediately?”

That person scolded from afar, carrying a vast and majestic aura that made everyone tremble.

“Boastful! How can the Immortal Academy tolerate you acting wildly here!” Lin Fan retorted, maintaining a very high posture, looking down on the world.

“Presumptuous! No one has ever dared to speak to me like that!”

With that, the person appeared, striding forward, wearing a golden robe that was very luxurious, but he was an elder.

Despite this, he possessed an ethereal temperament, his eyes like two golden stars rotating; one could tell at a glance that he was no simple character.

“You are the one being presumptuous! Do you think this place is your Jin Family? You are truly arrogant!” Lin Fan continued to scold, showing no signs of weakness.

A group of people were dumbfounded; this guy was truly overwhelmingly strong, daring to loudly rebuke even a Master Level figure.

“How audacious! You, young man, seeing a Senior arrive here, still show no reverence and are so rude. I suppose I must teach you a lesson!”

Jin Yunxiao’s face was grim, his gaze icy cold.

“Boom!”

The next moment, the elder moved, stretching out a large hand that instantly magnified countless times, covering the sky and sun, encompassing the entire world.

“World in the Palm!” Lin Fan’s eyes were deep; he was naturally familiar with this great Divine Ability from the ancient monk lineage.

In the Three Thousand Provinces, an original from the Western Sect had once used it, but compared to this person, it was incomparable.

In an instant, that large hand was surrounded by nebulae, intending to envelop all things in heaven and earth, and even refine Lin Fan, making him suffer.

“Stop!”

Just as Lin Fan was about to respond, a scolding voice rang out, and then a flash of colorful light struck, shattering the World in the Palm.
