C982 Two Parts of the Corpse

The two of them chatted about other things. Under Stone Immortal's guidance, Stone Immortal's heart was much more open and relaxed. At the same time, he was adjusting his open-minded attitude.2

After Ninth Master Lu and the others returned to the Loong family, Yan Fei took up the responsibility of taking care of all of them. After all, at this moment. Zhang Fann was still in a coma. He had to change Zhang Fann's leg every day. Ninth Master Lu and Cheng Bo were also injured, but they were not serious. They needed someone to take care of them.

Dao Lang was the most seriously injured. If nothing unexpected happened, Dao Lang would not be able to get out of bed in this year.

Gao Eh also needed to rest during this period of time. Although the wounds had started to heal gradually, However, the large amount of usage and consumption of Spirit Qi still made him look a little exhausted. He would need at least a few days to adjust. Therefore, the one who recovered the fastest was still Gao Eh.

Loong Xue and Patriarch Loong were still in seclusion. The situation was unclear, and no one knew when they would be able to leave seclusion. When Zhang Fann left, he had specially instructed Yan Fei to inform the Second and Fourth Elders of Loong family to prepare for the attack of the imperial family. Perhaps in the next few days, there would be news that the Loong family would start attacking the Loong family.

Recently, the Loong family had been preparing for war. Moreover, they had also sent out some spies to gather information in order to avoid being attacked by the imperial family and prepare for the arrival of the war.

Yan Fei felt somewhat troubled. Previously, he had been standing behind Zhang Fann and Ninth Master Lu. As long as he encountered any difficulties, he believed that Ninth Master Lu and Zhang Fann would be able to find the best solution. Even if he made a mistake, they would find a way to fix it. Therefore, Yan Fei dared to do whatever he wanted.

But now, both of them needed to rest. Ninth Master Lu had also entered a state of seclusion. In an instant, Yan Fei felt that the burden on his shoulders had become much heavier. When he did things, he felt as if he was walking on thin ice. He was very careful.

On the other side, some people from the imperial family brought Chen Lin's corpse to Ninth Duke. Each of them retreated to the side, not daring to say anything. They lowered their heads and stole a glance at Ninth Duke.

Ninth Duke sat behind the desk in the study room. His face was as dark as water, and his brows were knitted together. He looked at the corpse on the ground and sighed in his heart.

After carefully observing Chen Lin's hand, Ninth Duke's frown deepened. He asked coldly to the few of them, "When you brought the corpse back, did you find Chen Lin's storage ring?"

After hearing Ninth Duke's words, they looked at each other and shook their heads slightly, indicating that they did not see him, but no one dared to speak.

Ninth Duke's heart was burning with rage. It seemed like Zhang Fann had even taken away the storage ring from Chen Lin's hand when he killed Chen Lin. There was a hundred thousand high-grade medicinal Ninth Dukes that Ninth Duke had paid Chen Lin there.

Although Ninth Duke had been wary when he hired Chen Lin and wanted to wait until the matter was completed before paying all the one hundred thousand high grade Spirit Stones to Chen Lin, Chen Lin was very confident in his own strength. Hence, he asked for one hundred thousand high grade Spirit Stones. If he didn't pay first, then there was no need to talk about it.

Helpless, Ninth Duke could only pay Chen Lin 100,000 high-grade Spirit Stones first. However, at that time, Ninth Duke was very confident in Chen Lin. In his opinion, Chen Lin was the king among Half-step Sky Reaching warriors, and he was definitely an expert. How could he lose to Zhang Fann? That was absolutely impossible.

Chen Lin also told Ninth Duke that he could wait for good news in his house. If nothing unexpected happened, he would bring Zhang Fann's head to him in three days.

Today was the third day. Unfortunately, what Ninth Duke was waiting for was not Zhang Fann's head, but Chen Lin's corpse.

This made Ninth Duke feel both shocked and angry. He had never thought that the assassin he had hired at such a high price would be killed by Zhang Fann instead. This was something that Ninth Duke found hard to accept.

What was even more unacceptable was that the hundred thousand high grade Spirit Stones had disappeared without a trace. That was equivalent to five years of salary in the entire Wang Family Residence. Now that they had disappeared just like that, if the people of the Imperial Family were to find out about this matter... He would be in big trouble.

Moreover, if some servants and guards of the Imperial Clan were to hear about this matter, then they would definitely feel that the Imperial Clan no longer had money. Thus, they might flee, and their peaceful lives might be affected.

No, no matter what, they had to destroy the Loong family and then take back the hundred thousand high grade Spirit Stones. Otherwise, they would become the biggest laughingstock of the entire imperial family.

Thinking of this, Ninth Duke's face turned gloomy. He said to the few of them, "Pass on my order. Gather the men immediately. We will move now and head to the Loong family. There must be no mistakes!"

The few of them hastily agreed and ran outside the door. In their opinion, Ninth Duke was really angry this time. He was going to destroy the Loong family immediately. Moreover, he was in such a hurry.

When Ninth Duke was angry, he didn't care about it at all. He only had one thought at the moment. That was to kill Zhang Fann as soon as possible, eliminate the Loong family, and take back the hundred thousand high grade Zhang Fanns.

Very quickly, the group was assembled. Ninth Duke took a look and saw that the people gathered in the courtyard were all his personal experts. They were also the people he trusted the most. Their cultivation base had basically reached the sixth level of the Mahayana Period realm, and their methods were extraordinary.

Ninth Duke said to everyone with a gloomy expression, "I've gathered all of you here today, mainly to the Loong family. I'm sure all of you have heard about it. I spent a high price to invite a Half-step Sky Reaching warrior from the Western Ning Continent, but today, he has turned into a corpse."

After hearing Ninth Duke's words, everyone was shocked. They had never thought that things would turn out like this.

"What? That expert Chen Lin is dead? That's impossible. According to what I know, Although that Zhang Fann isn't simple, he is able to challenge those above him. He is able to kill a Mahayana Period warrior with just a Shackles Stage cultivation base, but today, it seems like... This Zhang Fann's strength was truly heaven defying. Even a Half-step Sky Reaching warrior was killed by him? Am I dreaming?

"I don't think so. Even if you are dreaming, we can't possibly have the same dream, right? I didn't expect Zhang Fann to be so powerful."

"The relationship between this Zhang Fann and the Loong family isn't ordinary. It seems like he will stand out as soon as anything happens to the Loong family. Perhaps, the relationship between him and the girl from the Loong family isn't simple."
